SVCW Pipeline Replacement Project Meetings

Posted on by

For those not able to attended the Redwood Shores Annual Meeting on February 12th, RSCA would like to bring to your attention this series of meetings regarding an issue that will significantly affect our neighborhood.

 


Silicon Valley Clean Water (SVCW; formerly South Bayside System Authority) is in the planning stages of replacing an aging wastewater pipeline segement that runs from the San Carlos airport area to the treatment facility in southeastern Redwood Shores.

Join us at one of these meetings at SVCW’s (SBSA’s) administrative offices:
1400 Radio Road, Redwood Shores

  • Wed. March 5th at 3 P.M. (with optional tour)
  • Wed. March 5th at 7 P.M.
  • Sat. March 8th at 10 A.M. (with optional tour)
  • Wed. March 12th at 3 P.M. (with optional tour)
  • Wed. March 12th at 7 P.M.

The meetings will share information about possible locations for the new pipeline and provide an opportunity for community members to share input. This is also an opportunity to take a tour from your wastewater treatment plant (daytime meetings only.)

SVSW officials are studying possible locations for the new 63-inch-diameter pipeline with the goal of identifying the route with the least disruption to the Redwood Shores community and the most long-term benefit to the community. We are seeking input on the possible locations. Whichever location is chosen, construction would begin in mid- to late-2015.

You may not be aware, but this past November San Mateo County re-drew the boundaries of the County’s Supervisor Districts. Redwood Shores was moved from District 3 into District 4, and you can meet our “new-to-us” District 4 Supervisor Warren Slocum.

There will also be updated and new information on two big issues facing the Shores in the next year. First is the continuing problems caused by the older trees along the Shores parkways. The City will have maps showing the trees that will need to be removed and will be looking for input on how to phase the work over the next few years.
