RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution No. ffi38fapproving an amendment to the existing City of Carlsbad-California Coastal Conservancy agreement for funding the construction of beach access stairways at Maple and Hemlock Avenues. ITEM EXPLANATION: On July 5, 1988, the City Council approved an agreement with the California Coastal Conservancy for funding construction of a beach access stairway at Maple Avenue as an element of the City’s construction of the Carlsbad Boulevard Blufftop Walkway project . The existing agreement provides for the Conservancy to reimburse the City up to $100,000 of Carlsbad non-prime agricultural mitigation fees on deposit with the Conservancy for the Maple Avenue stairway construction. The low bid received for this item of work is $76,500, lump sum. Therefore, a balance of $23,500 of approved Conservancy funding is available. On July 22, 1988, the California Coastal Conservancy approved the City’s request to apply the available $23,500 of Conservancy funding to the Hemlock Avenue stairway. The attached amended agreement will enable the City, therefore, to utilize all previously approved Conservancy funding for this project. Staff recommends approval of the attached amended agreement. FISCAL IMPACT: The Conservancy will reimburse the City a total of $100,000 of previously approved funding for the City’s construction of beach access stairways at Maple and Hemlock Avenues. The City Council has previously authorized a sufficient balance of funds to construct all elements of the Carlsbad Boulevard Blufftop Walkway project which is currently under construction.

Under Lease No. L86-009-A, the lessee's exercise of the Conservancy's interest in water right Licence No. 1912 on Waddell Creek can result in removal of all water from the stream below the irrigation pump operated by the lessee; 2. The Department of Fish and Game has set minimum pump-bypass requirements to pre- vent further dewaterings of Waddell Creek; 3. Under Public Resources Code Section 31150, the Conservancy is required to take feasible action to return to private use or ownership all lands acquired for agricultural preserva- tion, with appropriate use restrictions; 4. The minimum pump-bypass requirements set by the Department of Fish and Game are an appropriate use restriction; and 5. The Conservancy's authorization to terminate the lease in the event of the lessee's failure to comply with the minimum bypass require- ments is a reasonable and desirable means of enforcing the restriction and preventing further dewaterings of Waddell Creek."
