TITLE
Recommendation to authorize City Manager, or designee, to execute an easement deed to be granted to Los Angeles County Flood Control District (LACFCD) for construction improvements to the Alamitos Bay Pump Station Discharge Replacement line, located at 5437 East Ocean Boulevard; and

DISCUSSION
Los Angeles County Flood Control District (LACFCD) is requesting a Grant of Easement to conduct Alamitos Bay Pump Station improvements, located at 5437 East Ocean Boulevard.
