TITLE
Recommendation to authorize City Attorney to accept an easement deed for storm drain purposes; and authorize a quitclaim of the easement to the County of Los Angeles related to the development of Douglas Park. (District 5)
DISCUSSION
A master drainage plan was prepared for the development of Douglas Park, with the required storm drain main lines being built by the developer. Upon completion of construction, the City of Long Beach will quitclaim these public storm drain facilities to the County for permanent maintenance. Most of the drainage improvements will be constructed within the area being subdivided for this development (Tract No. 61252-1), and the required easement dedications were incorporated into that recorded map. A small portion of the storm drain facilities is located outside of the map and must be dedicated by separate instrument. It is recommended that the storm drain easement shown on Exhibit A be accepted by the City and then transferred to the County upon their acceptance of the final construction.
This matter was reviewed by Deputy City Attorney Lori A. Conway on July 26, 2007. In conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act, Environmental Impact Report No. 2001051048 was certified for this project.
TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
City Council action on this matter is not time critical.
FISCAL IMPACT
A document processing fee of $490 was paid by the developer and deposited in the General Fund (GP) in the Department of Public Works (PW).
SUGGESTED ACTION
Approve recommendation.
