The committee voted to recommend funding a comprehensive infrastructure study for North Beach during the FY26 budget process. Members said they were surprised the city had not already completed a holistic analysis there and noted intense development pressure in North Beach — including about 13 new buildings in a concentrated area — and wastewater flow from neighboring municipalities that passes through city lines.
Public Works staff said South Beach has already been modeled and that North Beach currently lacks a consolidated hydraulic and systems model. Staff presented a preliminary cost estimate of about $400,000 to build the study and associated modeling tools. The committee directed staff to pursue funding discussions with the North Beach CRA and other potential cost‑sharing partners and to include the study as a line item in FY26 budget deliberations.
Ending: Staff said the study would allow city engineers to evaluate system capacity for future development permits and to identify where developers’ system studies are insufficient without a citywide context.
