DESCRIPTION:
The City has a Recreational License Agreement with Alameda County Flood Control, Zone 7
which allows public recreational use of several Zone 7 properties including segments of the
Alamo Canal, South San Ramon Creek, Tassajara Creek, and Alamo Creek. On August 8,
1995, the City entered into a sublicense agreement with the East Bay Regional Park District
(Park District) which assigned maintenance responsibility of several regional trails, including the
Iron Horse Trail (along South San Ramon Creek) and the Alamo Canal Trail to the Park District.
The sublicense agreement was later amended in May 2003 to include the section of the Iron
Horse Trail between Alamo Creek and the Dublin /Pleasanton BART Station in the Park District's
maintenance responsibilities.
On September 20, 2005, a second amendment to the sublicense agreement was approved by
the City Council which included Tassajara Creek Trail (from Dublin Boulevard to Somerset
Drive) in the Park District's maintenance responsibilities and added the City's requirement to
pay the Park District for maintenance of said trail. A segment of the Tassajara Creek Trail from
Somerset Drive to Hillbrook Place was also included in the agreement subject to its completion
and acceptance by the City from the developer.
In early 2013, the City completed construction of the Alamo Canal Trail under 1 -580 and turned
over the maintenance to the Park District. The maintenance responsibilities include
miscellaneous trail amenities consisting of video camera equipment, bike /pedestrian counter,
trail lighting and power, emergency call boxes, collapsible fences and trail gates. The Park
District is also responsible for closing the trail gates prior to projected flood events to prevent the
public from accessing the area underneath the freeway. Dublin, Pleasanton and the Park
District have agreed to pay one third each of the costs to maintain and operate the trail
undercrossing. The annual maintenance cost was estimated at $15,000 and Dublin's fair share
of the cost is $5,000. The annual payment is scheduled to begin in January 2014, subject to an
annual general increase based on the Consumer Price Index for the San Francisco Bay Area.
The proposed Third Amendment to the Sublicense Agreement with the Park District will add the
segment of the Alamo Canal Trail underneath 1 -580 to the Park District's maintenance
responsibilities and the City's requirement to pay the Park District its fair share of the
maintenance costs. The amendment will also formally add the segment of Tassajara Creek Trail
from Somerset to Hillbrook Place to the Park District's maintenance responsibilities.
