NATURAL GAS: Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) currently provides natural gas service to the Mountain House community. There is no natural gas service on Bethany Road east of the Southern Pacific Railroad tracks. Therefore, no natural gas service is proposed to serve the annexation area. TELEPHONE: Telephone service to the Mountain House Community is provided by AT&T as a successor company to SBC Communications. New telephone service is available and will be extended to serve new development under existing franchise agreements. The annexation area will be served by AT&T from existing facilities on-site and Bethany Road. CABLE TELEVISION AND INTERNET-RELATED SERVICES: Cable television services and bundled internet-related services are provided to the Mountain House community by Charter Communications. New cable television and internet-related services are available and will be extended to serve new development under existing franchise agreements. The annexation area will be served by Comcast Business services via aerial service that will provide cable television and internet service to the site. LIBRARIES: The Mountain House Branch Library currently operates in a section of the New Town Center Complex. The library offers a circulation collection in English, Spanish, Hindi, and Punjabi. There is also computer work stations with free Wi-Fi, a small reference collection, reading programs and a significant activities program, and copying and typewriter services. PUBLIC TRANSIT: The San Joaquin Regional Transit District, the Regional Transit Provider for San Joaquin County, provides public transit services to Mountain House, as well as Intercity, Interregional, and Rural Transit Services countywide. Currently, RTD provides a local Hopper service between Wicklund Stop in Mountain House, Delta College, Walmart and Downton Tracy. The Altamont Corridor Express provides rail service between Stockton and San Jose on a daily weekday basis. The closest train station to ACE is located in Tracy or Vasco Stations. Currently, there is a RTD direct shuttle service between Mountain House and Tracy ACE station in the morning and evening hours. This service has been temporarily suspended due to COVID-19, but will likely return after the pandemic. Valley Link is a proposed project that will connect Northern San Joaquin County communities to the Tr-Valley and Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) through fast rail service via the route of the historic Transcontinental Railroad right-of-way through the Altamont Pass. This approximately 12- mile, abandoned right-of-way, deeded to Alameda County by Southern Pacific in 1984, provides an unprecedented opportunity to deliver a fast and efficient inter-regional rail service - connecting people, housing and jobs in the Northern California Megaregion and providing much-needed congestion relief in one of the Bay Areas most congested corridors. The project is currently in the environmental phase and if approved and funded, will provide rail link between Pleasanton BART Page 7
