DISCUSSION
A master drainage plan was prepared for the development of Douglas Park, incorporating a storm drain "backbone" main line along the southerly perimeter of the project area. This master storm drain system is to be built by the developer, inspected and approved by the City of Long Beach, and finally quitclaimed to the County of Los Angeles for long-term maintenance upon completion. Other portions of this system have been acquired by the City and transferred to the County earlier this year. The portion to be acquired through this action is shown on the attached Exhibit A.
In conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act, Environmental Impact Report No. 2001051048 was certified for this project.
This matter was reviewed by Deputy City Attorney Linda Trang on August 7, 2009, and by Budget and Performance Management Bureau Manager David Wodynski on August 14,2009.
TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
City Council action on this matter is not time critical.
FISCAL IMPACT
A document processing. fee of $1 ,777 was paid by the developer and deposited in the General Fund (GP) in the Department of Public Works (PW).
