    Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Station No. 4 - Bay-Friendly Rated in 2005
  • Hardy, drought-tolerant plants reduce water use by about 50% compared with conventional landscaping plants.
  • The Bay-Friendly landscape saves over one million gallons of water per year.
  • A network of grassy swales slows the flow of rainwater so it can percolate into the soil instead of running onto the streets.

The City of Pleasanton's Fire Station No. 4 was the first LEED-certified emergency services building in Alameda County, and at the time of construction in 2005 had the highest LEED rating in the nation for an emergency services building. It was also the first property to earn the Bay-Friendly Rated Landscape designation.
