Water Treatment Plant No. 5: Dublin Amendment to Preliminary Design Report
Staff recommended locating a 4,000 gallon per minute (gpm) water treatment plant at the Dublin
Reservoir site to take advantage of overlapping infrastructure needs such as water age improvement,
improving east-west distribution system improvement, better utilization of the Dublin site, and allow the
Southdale site to remain available for future development. Council asked staff why they were
recommending the Dublin site when they had previously recommended the Southdale site. Staff said the
Southdale site was based on a 2002 Water Distribution System Analysis; however, the Water Supply
Plan, and an update to the Comprehensive Plan, was recently completed and this provided staff with
updated information showing the Dublin site as a better location.
Staff recommended Option 4, the Dublin Reservoir Site at a 4,000 gpm capacity and Council concurred.
