Said Utility Systems component ofthe proposed Comprehensive Plan shall become and comprise a part of the City's Comprehensive Plan,as recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission,prepared June 1995. PASSED,APPROVED,AND RESOLVED this the 15th day of June, 1998. Mayor Harold L. Whitaker City of Friendswood ATTEST: � . , Delons McKenzie, T City Secretary EXHIBIT "A" UTILITY SYSTEMS UTILITY The City of Friendswood operates and maintains both a water SYSTEMS system and a wastewater system. Future expansion to these systems required to meet the community's future growth will be imple- mented through the use,of impact fees. These fees, charged against new development, will pay the cost for new facilities, but they cannot be used for replacement costs. Therefore, costs associated with upgrading the existing systems will require some other type of funding source. The following sections discuss the existing features of each system and proposed capital improvements as set forth in the 1997 study which updated the City's impact fees. WATER Water Source - The City has two sources for its water supply. SYSTEM These sources are from ground water wells and surface water which is purchased from the City of Houston. This water purchase is for 3.0 million gallons per day which is in excess of current needs. The purchase was in response to direction by the Harris-Galveston Coastal Subsidence District that the service area in which the City of Friendswood is located would convert to the surface water supply whereby 80 percent of the total demand would be served by surface water and that a maximum of 20 percent of the total demand would be served by the City's existing water wells. The City also has an • agreement with the City of Houston to secure a second take point for surface water when additional capacity is required. Based upon cunent estimates, Friendswood will require an additiona12.3 MGD � of surface water at build out. � 7.1 - Demand - In 1996, the City's average water consumption was approximately 3.58 million gallons per day. Of the 10,011 connections, the customer connections were divided between 8,189 single family and 1,463 multi-family units. The remaining 359 connections were split among commercial (193), sprinkler systems (119), and semi-public uses such as parks, schools and churches (47). . The system demand will exceed the available surface water capacity in the future and the City of Friendswood will be acquiring additional surface water from Houston. As of 1997, a study of the water distribution system and additional surface water take point(s) is underway but has not been completed. This study will determine what improvements are needed to the City's water system and at what point additional surface water will be required. Distribution 5ystem - Figure 21 shows the present water distribu- tion system. The system is primarily comprised of six and eight inch lines. Major lines in the system are the following: � A ten inch line is in Friendswood Drive east of Parkwood Avenue to Viejo Drive near the eastern city limits. • A twelve inch line is also in Parkwood Avenue south of Friendswood Drive to within approximately one thousand feet , of the southern city limits. • From the intersection of Friendswood Drive and Parkwood � Avenue, a fourteen iqch line in this right-of-way extends 7.2 EXHIBIT "�'',� ;r;,�; ^'""'" 4�k. . ,�,,` `,, fh''cs r.'�` '�'�s`^.� rY' ���`�, ''�avi`,I� 'r:'- l�.,���"�,�,�� 1`:,%' , ,�y� ���r�'' �4 ;'� .,��""�=°,�� ��,�`� ��,. .� r� ,.� 1`�'""",Ml3,,.�.�M q f�.::� F, a �j"'", rs Ff�1 x� ���''6"�fi'���4 �"; l �:�§W'~v�,�~. �t f�j rs , '�c i4 r`a�a ,F''�J� �.t�, ,4 r`� '� ' ,����ty�y1 � �i..�,.�yj F � y. a�.w��� �` � ��`"' �""� ' ' s a�"'`y ,� ." e p� :'a _,., x as.. � �t�r F b ti"� r �r qw, c 7{. �.� '�a�� ' ��* ?r,� � ��v�,C {�r+�"tl4 t� . �`� .� �;� �w'�j�4 _ .�s'� t� d '''�i i'! �,,�a,� .A,.

The location of the larger trunk lines described above which are located in the City's southeastern section will provide the opportuni- ty to meet future growth and water demands in this area. Completed projects associated with surface water are the transmis- sion, pumping, and storage facilities which are expected to be adequate'to serve the City's requirements to the time when approxi- mately fifty percent of the City is built out. As the City approaches this level of development, a second transmission line in Beamer Road and Dixie Farm Road with associated pumping and storage facilities is envisioned by the Ciry's engineers. Currently, an eight inch line is located in the rights-of-way of Beamer and Edgewood and tie to the twelve inch line in Blackhawk Boulevard. . Future Improvements - There are three growth areas in the City where future capital improvements are proposed for the water system: the Melody Lane system, Bay Area Boulevard Service - Area and the South Friendswood system. 7.3 • The Melody Lane area extends service into a vacant area of approximately 400 acres between Melody Lane and Clear Creek. The proposed eight and twelve inch lines tie to an eight inch line in Melody Lane. • Proposals for the South Friendswood System include the looping of minor distribution lines which are comprised of eight and twelve inch sizes within proposed residential developments. This line network would serve approximately 1,088 acres. • Proposals for the Bay Area Boulevard Area include construct- ing of a 14-inch trunk line from Parkwood (along the Bay Area Boulevard right-of-way) to the 10-inch line in Friendswood D- rive. This would enable a second take point for surface water to be located in the north portion of the city and the system could them push water to the south. WASTEWATER Treatment - The Blackhawk Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant SYSTEM is located in Friendswood on Ciear Creek in the northeastern section of the City. Friendswood owns 4.875 million gallons per day of the plant total capacity. This capacity was purchased in two phases. Phase I provided 2.375 million gallons per day and this capacity is serving present development. An additional 2.5 million gallons per day was obtained by the City in the Phase II construction and is available to serve future development. This capacity will serve the , City through the ten-year capital improvements set forth in the impact fee study, from 1997 - 2007. = In 1996, the number of equivalent units was estimated to be 9,850 7.4 for wastewater treatment purposes. Using an average daily demand of 100 gallons per capita per unit and the 1990 census data of an average of 2.86 persons per unit, the 1996 estimate of capacity utilized at the Blackhawk Plant is 2.817 million gallons per day. Based upon same criteria, the capacity required of the plant at buildout, assuming 17,500 equivalent units, would be 5 million gallons per day. Assuming no adjustment to usage per capita or the number of persons per unit, the City would be required to purchase a small amount of additional capacity (estimated population is 48,600). ' Collection System - This system is shown by Figure 22, Sewer Utility. Most collection lines in the system which service the adjoining properties are six and eight inches in size. Trunk lines range upward from twelve inches to thirty-six inches. Not all areas of the City are provided sanitary sewer service as shown by Figure 22. Approximately two hundred units were not served by the City's system as reported in the 1990 Census. An area of the City shown on Figure 22 receives sanitary sewer service from the City of Pearland. If the residentially developed properties north of this area were connected to a sanitary sewer system, it is likely they too would be served by Pearland. The non-served areas are scattered over the community and most are close to existing lines, or could be reached by line extensions if the line gradient is feasible. Future Improvements - There is one area proposed to receive sanitary sewer trunk lines through the impact fee capital improve- ment program. This area is the Bay Area Boulevard Area which 7.5 EXHIBIT "A" �.�.; Y� . l,:� ..aur� �iry ���� .�l rf"� *t�� I �.' .Fl. °i''. . �;ry ,,'+. �°y:• `^�. ,, Y ,_l�i �� ,�E�. � � f . �{f/ ���$�„�. �''`5' `,f�,.4` f �}�e :i � iv f:' -:� ,r�� ����;�1, r.v. �= ._�-�� � � ,;��-� :x. °� ¢ �+� �yE�' rl,• ti ...�=� - � 'i r'j +T � � i! a' ry,ea'2 � � � *y �/I� t ! ��' ^+. �fw � i ,�`,' �� ��' � ��� °s �3,. ..,h .eiR •�Ls,� Y��'� f�'�� ,`� .:,� `{` :j. \ � �J ! � '��� 'l�p: � .rt � '� f _ 2' : », _I � ',� ; 4� �� ,� ?,� ,,�a�' b+.-� j \ tT'." . .

The single biggest factor influencing the selection of a force main over a gravity trunk line in the channel by-pass being proposed by Harris County Flood Control District. The details of the proposed improvements are identified in the study for that area due out in the Summer of 1998. � Other projects will be financed by funds from sources other than impact fees. These projects are designed to take service into previously unserved areas. The utility planning performed for the City has been designed to match water and sewer services against growth in those areas not heretofore served. Through the collection of impact fees over a period of time as these areas develop, the capital costs and some associated costs will be recovered whereby new development will have paid for their lines. Other costs for improvement needed such as extension of sewer services to developed properties will require other funding sources to make these improvements. SUMMARY Recent improvements and future plans for improvements to the Blackhawk Wastewater Treatment Facility and current supplies of water will allow the City adequate utility infrastructure and availability through its expected built out capacity of a 48-50,000 . total population. Any increase beyond that point would probably require increased capacity in wastewater treatment and increased purchases of water supplies to accommodate that increase in � population. _ 7.6
