WHEREAS, on May 11, 1982, an easement was dedicated to the City of Carlsbad for sewer and
access purposes, recorded as instrument No. 82-139474 of official records; and
WHEREAS, on Oct. 9, 1997, an additional easement was dedicated to the City of Carlsbad for
sewer purposes, recorded as instrument No. 1997-0503949 of official records; and
WHEREAS, MAAC Laurel Tree LP, owner of that portion of Lot "G" of Map No. 823, Rancho Agua
Hedionda, filed in the Office of the County Record of the County of San Diego on Nov. 16, 1896, has
filed an application with the city to quitclaim a sewer easement over the property; and
WHEREAS, the city has reviewed available records, including as-built plans, and determined that
the subject easement areas no longer contain active public sewer facilities and are not needed for
current or future public sewer purposes; and
WHEREAS, retaining the easements serves no public purpose and may unnecessarily encumber
the property; and
WHEREAS, the quitclaim, or relinquishment, of the subject easements will not adversely affect
the city's ability to provide public sewer service; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that it is in the public interest to quitclaim the
subject sewer easements.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Carlsbad, California, as follows:
1. That the above recitations are true and correct.
2. The proposed quitclaim deeds do not qualify as a project under the California
Environmental Quality Act, or CEQA, under Public Resources Code Section 21065. They
have no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the environment or a
reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and therefore do
not require environmental review.
3. That the City Council hereby approves the quitclaim of:
