DATE: December 21. 1976 Cf Atty<" DEPARTMENT: City Manager C. Mgr. Subject: PROBLEM BEACH ACCESS - 2445 OCEAN AVENUE * .Statement .of the Matter The City owns a 13 foot access at the north end of Ocean Avenue. The access has a 6 foot chain link fence to the north which is vacant property. There is a resident to the south who has a 3 1/2 foot wire fence on his property. The residents have been subjected to considerable annoyance due to trespassing, vandalism, near physical abuse and inappropriate language. This has also been a problem for the Police Department as they cannot adequately control these activities. The City access is unimproved and persons using it follow a meandering path to the'beach. The path follows the southern fence line for a considerable distrance and the low private fence is us^d as a handhold by pedestrians. They also jump over this fence and use the steps on private property, steal personal property and generally harass the owners of the house. ' During the next fiscal year, consideration should be given to budgeting funds to construct an improved beach access in accordance with City standards, as was done at Elm and at Grand. The easement could be widened and steps built further away, from the private residence. This would entail acquiring some additional property to the north. Funds are available in Contingency Fund 1-139-2790 which could be used for the construction of an 8 foot chain link fence along the south edge of City owned property adjacent to 2445 Ocean Avenue.

The estimated cost of this fence is $1,750. _ - . - An alternative would be to close the access from the street, thus forcing pedestrians to use the Elm or Grand access. • If Council concurs with the installation of a fence, adopt Resolution No. tf-0 frf .U' - •/ ^>,/y ^./ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 RESOLUTION NO. 4069 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA AUTHORIZING THE TRANSFER OF FUNDS FROM THE CONTINGENCY ACCOUNT TO THE UTILITY/MAINTENANCE ACCOUNT.
