Dear Mr. Aleshire:
As you know, a coalition of elected officials and concernec citizens in both Orange and San Diego Counties has been formed tc begin steps in solving the shared beach erosion problems whicl affect the littoral cell--the geographical reach within whicl beach sand moves--spanning from Dana Point to Point La Jolla.
After many months of careful consideration and study by thi affected agencies, we are now asking that g& of th jurisdictions in the littoral cell (the County of Orange, City o San Clemente, County of San Diego, City of Oceanside, City 0: Carlsbad, City of Del Mar, and City of San Diego) enter into Joint Powers Agreement which establishes the Beach Erosion Actio Committee (BEACh). The purpose of this organization is quit1 simply to promote the restoration of beaches within the littora. cell and to ensure that shoreline erosion control projects in on community do not adversely affect adjoining communities. Thi organization would also have the power, with the unanimou support of its membership, to seek funds for and carry out beac. er o sion con t r ol pr o j e ct s .
BEACh is not intended to preempt the decisionmaking authority o its individual member agencies (in fact, BEACh could not impos or carry out any plan or project within the jurisdiction of member agency without that agency's consent). Rather, it purpose is to promote communication and cooperation in addressin a shared problem which ignores jurisdictional boundaries, an whose resolution frequently exceeds our individual technical an financial resources,
We regard the formation of BEACh as a major milestone in dealin with beach erosion problems in an aggressive and regionall coordinated manner, The success of this effort depends on th active participation and support of every affected jurisdiction.
We therefore are asking your assistance in the following:

Frank Aleshire City Manager City of Carlsbad 1200 Elm Avenue Carlsbad, CA 92008
Dear Mr. Aleshire:
You recently received a copy of a proposed Joint Powers Agreement
(JPA) and Bylaws for the Beach Erosion Action Committee (BEACh). As a result of an editing error, the section of the JPA concerning the "Governing Board of Beach" was inadvertently dropped from the copy which you received. It reads as follows:
7. Governing Board of BEACh
All powers of this Organization shall be exercised by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall consist of 13 members who shall be appointed as follows: two representatives from each city and the County of San Diego; one representative from the County of Orange. Each county supervisorial district bordering the Oceanside littoral cell shall designate one representative for a total of three representatives, two from the County of San Diego and one from the County of Orange. Each director must be a mayor, councilperson or supervisor serving on the governing body of the Member Agency which selected him or her. Vacancies shall be filled in the same manner as originally selected.
A corrected copy version of the JPA with the inclusion of this section and corresponding renumbering of the sections is enclosed.
Also, the proposed Bylaws, which are to be considered for adoption following the formation of BEACh, need to be corrected
as follows:
Page 6, Article VI Staffing: "The Board of Directors bm may employ an executive director, consultants, or other staff as it deems necessary to carry out the objectives of the organization. Those employed shall not acquire tenure and may be terminated at will for any reason."

BEACH EROSION ACTION COMMITTEE (BEACh)
The Carlsbad Beach Erosion Committee fully endorses City parti
cipation in the proposed Beach Erosion Action Committee. This
committee could be the beginning of an aggressive plan to deal
efficiently with the Oceanside littoral cell beach erosion
p rob lems .
However, this is regarded only as an important first step. Mu
of the beach material originates far inland and was formerly
supplied to the beach by streams and rivers. Therefore, the
inland jurisdictions must eventually participate in and suppor
the movement of sediments to the coastline if beach erosion is
be effectively dealt with.
If BEACh becomes operational by January of 1986, it then would
become involved in the placement of the sand dredged from the
Batiquitos Lagoon. This may be timely in that the City of
Carlsbad may wish to seek legal and technical counsel on
placement of the sand from this lagoon.

the beaches in the littoral sand cell.
Neither the Beach Erosion Action Committee nor a
majority of the members thereof shall have the authority to impose or carry out any plan, project, duty, obligation or other responsibility within the jurisdiction of any Member
Agency thereof without the consent of such Agency; further, no Agency shall be required to do anything it does not sped fically agree to do. Any recommendations, plans or programs
promulgated by BEACh shall be advisory only.
