MTG. 5-19- 9s BEACH LIFEGUARD REQUEST CITY A
DEPT. @!, CITY N
RECOMMENDED ACTIONI:
To consider a recommendation by the Parks and Recreation Commission tc
immediately establish a seasonal jet ski and vehicular beach patrol, and that fund:
permitting, future plans be made to provide a lifeguard program on the beach are:
from Oak Street north to the mouth of the Buena Vista Lagoon.
ITEM EXPLANATION::
Since 1983 the topic of providing lifeguard service to the section of beach in Carlsbac
from Oak Street north to the Buena Vista Lagoon has been an issue addressed E
length by City staff. The subject beach area (Exhibit 1) is approximately one (1) mil
in length. East of the mean high tide mark, the land is owned by private propert
owners, west of the mean high tide is owned and under the jurisdiction of the Stat
Lands Commission. The City owns and assumes maintenance responsibilities for fiv
(5) coastal accessways which provide for public access. To resolve what is perceive
to be a regional issue, City representatives have requested assistance from Stat
officials and State agencies including the State Parks and Recreation Commissior
State Lands Commission, and the State Department of Parks and Recreation. 1
date, requests to fund additional lifeguard service and/or efforts to convince the Sta
to relocate existing guard towers to this section of beach which has become mol
popular than other currently guarded sections, due to a shift in sand deposits, ha\
not been productive.
In 1989 a Carlsbad resident Mr. Pete Biltchik, approached City staff with a request 1
establish lifeguard service on the aforementioned section of beach in Carlsbad. Aft1
further analysis, staff reported (Exhibit 2) on the issue and concluded that lifegua
service has not been initiated along this section of beach for a number of reasor
including:
The City owns no public beach along its coastline
The City is not in the beach lifeguard business
Various State agencies have taken the position that a guz
service is not their responsibility.
Creating a safety expectation for the beach environment.

In correspondence to Mr. Biltchik, City staff suggested that this request should
brought before the Parks and Recreation Commission. Mr. Biltchik did request
issue be addressed during the November 1991 Commission meeting. The ager
item presented to the Commission outlined the history of this issue and attachec

relevant correspondence and reports regarding the establishment of lifeguard service
In addition, the agenda item was accompanied by a staff recommendation to den)
the request for the City to establish a lifeguard service for the same reasons a:
mentioned in previous reports. After considerable discussion, the Parks anc
Recreation Commission directed the item back to staff for further analysis and tr
return with the following information:

e
A cost for Uhe City to provide lifeguard service
Alternatives in lieu of lifeguard services
Funding sources for this request
A survey of what other coastal cities in San Diego County providl
with respect to beach lifeguarding
Staff returned to the Commission in March 1992 with a report outlining the requeste
information (Exhibit 3). In essence, staff's report identified two (2) underlying reasor
for the request to establish lifeguard service, they are:
1. Enforcement of ordinances relating to beach use (i.e. alcohc
dogs, surfing)
Swimming and other recreational water use safety issues 2.
The attached report to the Parks and Recreation Commission (Exhibit 3) offers a mo
detailed breakdown of the requested information. However, alternative lifeguai
programs which provide varying levels of service indicate an initial year start up co
ranging from approx. $220,49;7 to $52,560 (includes admin. costs). Secondary ye
operation costs range from approx. $1 30,497 to $28,800 (includes admin. costs). Tt
report also offers information relating to funding opportunities and provides suw
information of lifeguard programs within other coastal San Diego County cities.
Parks and Recreation Commission Action: After the staff presentation with
recommendation to deny the request, considerable discussion and public inl:
ensued. The Commission, by a 5-2 vote, recommended "that plans be mal
immediately to fund a jet skii patrol [in conjunction with a vehicular patrol] wi
the idea that in the future, funds permitting, the City expand to lifeguarding (
the beac&.In The initial year start up cost of this particular program including adm
cost is approx. $67,000, subsequent year(s) operation cost is approx. $40,0(
Although the Commission reviewed several funding sources and were apprised oft
status, availability, opportunities, and constraints associated with each, 1
Commission made no recommendation on funding. Rather, the Commiss
requested a funding source be identified at the discretion of the City Council.
Alternatives for Council Consideration: In light of the Parks and Recreat
Commission's recommendation, and if Council considers this a direction they wisp
pursue, a number of alternatives remain as options.
* PAGE 3, AB # i!& Y e
1. Leaislative Assistance - In a letter dated November 29, 1983 (Exhibit 2), Claire
T. Dedrick, Executive Oflicer with the State Lands Commission, stated that al
of the public trust lands at this location (from the mean high tide west) are
subject to recreational use by the public. However, no lifeguard services arc
provided to this area (or any of California’s 1,l 00 miles of coastline) by thc
State Lands Commission because the agency is not staffed or funded tc
provide it. Todays urbanized setting has generated a greater draw to thi:
regional resource and that in turn has created greater impacts from increase(
regional use of the area. To address this issue from a regional perspective tht
Council may wish to forrnally request legislative assistance to incorporate thi:
area within the State Parks and Recreation system and thereby extend thr
Department’s ability to enforce their rules and regulations to the adjoininl
tidelands of the subject property.
Maintain Status Quo - Currently the subject beach area receives a number c
citizen complaints during the seasonal months. Most often, those complaint
are related to ordinance violations and are typically responded to by th
Carlsbad Police Department. Occasionally the department does provide ver
limited use of a foot patirol and would apply only during peak use periods o
weekends and holidays. Only issues related to ordinance violations at
addressed. Currently the State lifeguards will respond to emergency lii
threatening situations. However, response is based on a priority situation, wil
the State Park property receiving first priority for emergency rescues.
Consider Citv Funding ior a Lifeauard Service Proaram
A. Contract Proposal

3.
Upon request, the State Department of Parks and Recreation hi
submitted cost estimates to provide lifeguard service through contra
($220,497 1 st year - $1 30,497 2nd year). However, they have indicate
that it would be too late to establish this service for the 1992-93 seaso
If the State would be willing to commit to provide the service for the ’9
94 season, staff would submit a funding request during the Budg
Review process.
Lifeguard Service By City Forces
Although the Parks and Recreation Commission recommended tb
plans be made iimmediately to fund a jet ski patrol [in conjunction w
a vehicular patrol], the ultimate goal was to establish a lifeguard servi
similar to the proposal outlined by the State. Realizing the currc
economic situation and the ability to fund such a program, t
Commission opted to provide a less costly guard service now, and
expand in future years when the economic situation improves. Wl
staff believes the jet ski program used in conjunction with a vehicL
patrol would be effective and provide immediate relief of beach relal
ordinance violations and water safety issues, it obviously would t
provide the level of service as outlined in the States proposal.
B.
* PAGE 4, AB # rr@-f Y 0 e
If Council wishes to pursue a lifeguard program utilizing City resources,
a service level expectation should first be defined and the possible
consequences of that service level in terms of liability exposure should
be considered. Upon review by the City Attorney’s office, there is
currently no legal liability exposure to the City for accidents occuring at
this stretch of beach. However, if the City were to establish a lifeguard
program, even a lirnited one, the City’s immunity to liability would then
cease. A single liahility case could far exceed the costs of providing this
service for many years.
Although several alternative lifeguarding programs have previously been outlined in
a report to the Parks and Recreation Commission, the service levels and liability
issues associated with each should be further analyzed. If Council desires to provide
lifeguard service through the use of City resources, staff recommends that the issue
return to Council once further analysis considers the following:
e Service level expectations
e
e
Liability exposure associated with service level expectations
Detailed costs associated with a program to meet service leve
expectations (to include lifeguarding and beach maintenancc
responsibilities).
FISCAL IMPACT:
Depending upon which alternative the Council chooses, the fiscal impact would vaq
If Council recommends to establish a lifeguard program and initiate the expenditur
of funds to provide for that service, the amount of funds would be contingent up0
the service level expectation. However, the Financial Management Director ha
reiterated that any expenditure of funds for lifeguard services will require an equ.
reduction in spending on other general fund services/programs, if the City is .
maintain a balanced budget.
Efforts to pursue legislative assistance could produce a lifeguard service provided k
the State of California Parks arid Recreation Department at no cost to the City if tk
State would extend the State Parks responsibility and jurisdiction to include tl
subject State Lands Commission property.
The fiscal impact to maintain the status quo would remain at a minimum expenditu
of City funds. Contingent upon Council decision staff would return with furth
detailed cost estimates if necessary.

LIFEGUARD SERVICE REQUEST FROM OAK STREET TO BUENA VISTA LAGOON
BACKGROUND:
Mr. Pete Biltchik is requesting that lifeguard service be provided along thl beach from approximately Oak Street North to the mouth of the Buena Vista Lagoon
RECOMMENDAT ION :
Write a letter to Mr. Biltchik informing him of the City’s position and that i he wishes to pursue this matter further that he be scheduled to make presentation/request at the next Parks and Recreation Commission meeting, whic
is scheduled for July 17, 1989, at 5:OO p.m. at the Calavera Community Center
DISCUSSION:
In reviewing past correspondence from the City and various State officials,
appears the issue of providing lifeguard service from Oak St. to the mouth the Buena Vista Lagoon has been an item of discussion since shifting sand h made the area attractive to the public around 1983.
Attached are past documentations sent from City officials to State agenci requesting the State consider providing lifeguard services.
The various State departments responded that in their opinion since the land question is either not under their jurisdiction or they do not have the author or funding to service the beach areas not under the ownership, they would provide the requested lifeguard service unless they enter into a contract w the City where the City would reimburse the State for the guard service.
In discussing the cost for lifeguard service with Bill Fait, Area Manager the State Parks and Recreation Department, he estimates the seasonal start cost for the approximately one mile stretch of beach would be 4208,000 an 8117,000 per year thereafter.
It has also been brought to MY attention there is no legislation requiring Ci to provide lifeguard service. According to other officials that I have SP to, when a City does provide lifeguard service they create a public expecta of safety tnd open the door to liability issues. Recent court cases have r
agencies are liable not only from negligence, but also for natural condit that may be hazardous to the public such as an uneven sand bottom. Accor
to Ron McCullough, RegionaR Director of the State Parks and Recrei Department, the Cities of Newiport Beach, Huntington Beach, and San Clement( not renew their contracts for lifeguard service because of an injury award Newport Beach was required to pay.

0
0
The City is not in the beach lifeguard business
Various State agencies have taken the position that the guard service i not their responsibility.

Dear Mr. Norris:
The Carlsbad Parks and Rscreatian Commission requests that State lifeguard. services he provided to a one mile stretch of beach awned by the State Land Commission between knz area north of Oak Street and the mouth of the 8uena
Lagoon in Carlsbad, California. The influx of sand has made that beach the
attractive one in the area- Thare 8re no lifeguard9 in the vicinity & u entire are& is urptotzcted.
It is the understanding of this Commission that this'approxinste one mile
stretch of beach is owned by the State Lands Cormissiarr frcm =ne mesa high west, and is therefore under the State's jurisdiction.
State's responsibility to provide reasonable protection to the baach-qoers
The State Department of Parks b Recreation, who provides lifeguard service1 between Uak Street and South Carlsbad State Park, should show some flexibi
now and in the future and simply relocate the towers from where beach traf
down due to sand depletion to this more heavily used area, The City has ai to allow the State to use City access ways for the lifeguard towers.
Your immediate attention to this hazardous condition would be appreciated concerned,
Sincerely,
It is undoubtedly t

Dear Ms. Dahlquist:
Director Briner has asked me to respond to your letter of September 27, 1983 requesting us to assume the responsibility
of providing guard towers and lifeguard services to a one mile stretch of beach from Oak Street north to the mouth of the Buena Vista Lagoon in tarlsbad, California.
You have cotrectty stated that'the beach below the mean high tide line in this area Is owned and under the jurisdictlon of
the State Lands Commission. The beach above the mean high tide line, with the exception of three City owned 50 foot wide stairway accesses, is privately owned. The State Pub1 ic Resour Code, Section 5003 and 5067, define the powers and duties of t State Parks and Recreation Department. My Oepartment has no legal authority to expend funds for the cafe, maintenance or control of any lands which art not part of the State Park Syst
However, we may enter into contracts with cities, counties, or other political subdivisions of the state for the care, mainte and control of lands not under our jurisdiction.
As the land in question is not part of the State Park System c
way we can provide the services you are suggesting is to entel into a contract with your city. The only other way I'm aware
is by tpecirl legislation including an appropriation to cover costs.
The fact that no services are being provided on this beach is a unique situation, Many miles of state, county, and city ow beach along California's coast are used by the public for bea recreation purposes nithiut benefit of lifeguard or other services .

Dear I appr Mm: 'ate your sending me a copy of your letter con- cerning lif rd8 *ween the area north of Oak Street
A member of my staff has looked into the situation and four that there are some problems preventing the State Parks Department from complying with your wishes. State Public Resources Code Sections 5003 and 5007 define the powers an duties of the Department and limits it legal authority to spend money for care, maintenance or control on lands whic are not part of the state park system. The system is allo to enter into contracts with political subdivisions such as cities and counties in order to care, maintafn or contr lands not under the Department's jurisdiction.
The beach in question above the mean high tide is private1 owned wtth the exception of three, 50-foot-wide stairway accesses owned by the City of Carlsbad. It is my under- standing that these accesses are not suitable for towers; land below the mean high tide is unsuitable for towers; ai the Department is not empowered to place facilities on private property.
Thank you for keeping me apprised of your concerns.

Oear Mr. Rriner:
I am writing to you on behalf of the citizens of the City of Carlsbad to sol your support in solving a very serious problem. The problem is that the Sta
does not provide lifeguard services to a one mile stretch of beach between t area north of Oak Avenue and the mouth of the Buena Vista Lagoon in Carlsbad
In years past this was not much of a problem because of the rocky nature of beach, but due to a large volume of shifting sands this has become the most attractive beach area along our coastline.
This is not the first time this issue has been raised with the State Oeparti
of Parks and Recreation. I have enclosed copies of previous correspondence facilitate your prompt and personal attention to this matter.
In your department' s correspondence you cite the State Public Resources Cod1 Sections 5003 and 5007 and conclude "My Department has no legal authority t expend funds for the are, maintenance or control of any lands &ich are nc
part of the State Park System." contracts with cities, ... for the care, maintenance and control of lands r
under our jurisdiction."
What you are suggesting is that if the City would pay, your department woul provide the lifeguards. I appreciate your position, but this City and man
other coastline cities arc not in a position to pay but we do provide plil
paramedic and other local services to these beaches, and State beaches.
This fs not just a Carlsbad problem so I would challenge you and your stat'
work wfth the City of Carlsbad to explore alternatives aimed at solving th problem. A few ideas which I have thought of are listed below.
aopreciate your review and suggestions on how these could work.

Honorable Mary Casler, Mayor
City of Carlsbad
1200 Clm Avenue
Carlsbad, California 92008
Dear Mayor Casler:
X dm responding to your letter of July 29, 1985 to Director Briner. You reqt
.that we review and commmt on four suggestions you made regarding the pravic
of lifeguard services on a mile long stretch of beach in the City of Carlsbac
which is n6t part of the State Park System.
Item A - Our Department would not be willing to accept a temporary
easement during the swimming season on these private and
publicly owned lands. An easement is not necessary for the
State to provide the services requested if a contract is
executed by the owner(s) of the properties involved.
In the past, the City of Carlsbad contracted with our
Department for lifeguard services on properties the City
leased from San Diego Gas and Electric. The last such
contract terminated in mrd-summer 1981r when the City
chose not to renew their lease on the property. Since
that ti-, San Diego Gas and Electric has been contrdcting
direct with us for the service.
Item B - k stated in our October 13, 1983 response to the City on this subject, our Department may enter into contracts with
cities to provide services on lands not under Parks juris-
diction. Funds to pay for these services would have to be
provided by the contractee. Howeverr because of recent
court cases in Californra (Gonzales VS. City of San Diego
(1982) and Taylor vs. City of Newport Beach (19841, contrac-
ting agencies have taken a hard look at the liability factor
when contracting out lifeguard services.
The courts involved in the above cases have ruled that agenci
0 Honorable Xary Casier c i Lfor

August 16 , 1985
are liable not Only for negligence, but for any natural
condition that may be hazardous to the public such as
an uneveh sand bottom. In the Newport Beach case alone,
Taylor was awarded a verdict in excess of 7 million doilars.
Because of this action, the Cities of Newport Beach,
Huntington Beach, and San Clemente did not renew their
contracts with the County of Orange when they expired in
1985. Our Department at this time is unwrlling to extend
our liability exposure by providing service to any but our
own beaches.
&
Item C - The State Department of Parks and Recreation has no authority
to form a lifeguard assessment district. The City does have
this authority and could form an assessment district in
order to provide the needed service to their constituents.
Item D - The Department would charge a'contractee for the actual cost
of the services rendered (staff, equipment and operating
expenses) + 15% contract administration costs. Our staff's
estimate for providing contracted lifeguard service on this
beach would be $127,000 for the initial year start up costs
including equipment, salaries and communication system, and
$75,000 for subsequent years at current operating cost rates.
We can provide you with a breakdown of these costs if you
desire.
San Diego Coast District Superintendent William Fait has previously met with Carlsbad City Parks Director David Bradstreet on this particular subject. We

TITLE:
REQUEST TO ESTABLISH
LIFEGUARD SERVICES (ACTION)
I 0
March 6, 1992
TO: PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
VIA:
FROM: Senior Management Analyst
LIFEGUARD ISSUE
During November, the Parks and Recreation Commission addressed a request to establisk
lifeguard services along the section of beach adjacent to Ocean Street from Oak Avenue
North to the City limits at the mouth of the Buena Vista Lagoon.
Although staffs recommended action was to deny the request to establish lifeguard service:
for a number of reasons as outlined in the Agenda Bill (Attachment l), the CornmissioI
took no action other than to direct the issue back to staff for further analysis. Thc Commission specifically requested information to include I) the cost to provide €or lifeguarc
service, 11) alternatives in lieu of lifeguard service and III) alternative methods for fundin1
of this request. In addition, this report presents a brief synopsis of present situatiot
occurring in coastal cities throughout San Diego county, with regards to lifeguard service
As requested, further analysis of this issue is as follows:
I.
Parks and Recreation Director *
COST TO PROVIDE LIFEGUARD SERVICE
Department staff has met wish the local district of the State Parks and Recreatic
Department to solicit their input regarding the possibility of providing for lifeguai
service to the subject beach area (Attachment 2).
Although at this time the State cannot commit to providing seMce by a contra
proposal, they have indicated that it may be possible in the future. However, Sta
officials have indicated it is already too late to implement a contract for the 19
season. Although the attached report provides more detailed information and I(c(
estimates" to establish and continue lifeguard service on a year to year basis, t
summary of costs are:
k lniEial 1st year start up and operation

GRAND TOTAL $130,497
11. ALTERNATIVES IN LIEU OF LIFEGUARD SERVICES
After analysis, there appears to be two principle reasons for the request to establ lifeguard service.
1.
2.
Swimming and other recreational water use safety.
Enforcement of ordinances relating to beach use (Le. alcohol, dogs, swfh
Although the establishment of lifeguard service would perhaps provide the most effect
control in terms of ongoing surveillance, alternatives do exist and others could
implemented to reduce or eliminate concerns relating to beach safety and enforcem
issues.
A. In emergency situations, the State of California lifeguards will respond
water rescues. However, given a priority situation, State lifeguards wc
respond to State property first.
Cost: None
B. The current police foot patrol of this beach area provides for spori
surveillance and immediate relief of violations Occurring on the beach. '
patrol is prhady implemented upon receipt of complaints €tom prop owners on Ocean Street and is performed on an as needed basis. Howe
limited relief from violations occurring in the water exist due to limited ac
to; and therefore, control of the water surface.
Cost: Minimal expenditure experienced by Police Department
C. Surveillance of the beach and water surface could be increased through
availability of more man hours for patrol, The patrol itself could incr
effectiveness through the use of a motorized vehicle/(4 x 4 or Qu
equipped with surfboards which would provide for access to the water.
0 e
March 6, 1992 Page Three
Although this scenario addresses only enforcement issues, water safety or
lifeguarding application could be applied if the patrol person has received
adequate safety training and the vehicles were also equipped with medical
supplies and two way radios for contact with police and emergency medical
services. This patrol could consist of part time employees and implemented during peak use periods (summer months). The issuance of citation powers
would be critical to the effectiveness of this program.
Estimated Cost:
0 1,080 hours per persodyear @ $10/hr. = $10,800
0 4 x 4 vehicle $ZO,OOO/every 3rd year
0 Vehicle maintenance and replacement cost $5,000/per year
o Two way radio $3,500 each
o Medical supplies $5500
a Training $2,000 per yeadper employee
a Administrative cost @ 20%
Total Cost Initial Start Up Based On 1 Vehicular Patrolling Guard: $43,800 + Adxnin. Cor
The use of a jet ski and patrol person with citation powers to enforce watc
surface violations is also a consideration to be used in conjunction with foc
or vehicular patrol. Although use of the jet ski patrol would be sporadic
could prove effective in the control of surfing ordinance vioiations and cou
aid in rescues during life threatening situations.
D.
Estimated Cosk
0 Jet ski $5,000
0 Jet ski travel trailer $1,500
0 Maintenance and replacement cost $1,500/per year
0 400 hours per person per year @ $lO/hr. = $4,000
Total Cost Initial Start Up In Coqjanctioa with Vehicular Patrolling Guard: $SS,W
Admin. Cost
IIr. ALTERNATIVE METHODS FOR FUNDING OF THIS REQUEST
A. General Fund - The use of general funds during times of a more prospe1
economic situation would perhaps provide a source of most read9 availr
funding. However, current budgetary constraints due to an unstable econc
has forced the City to cut back and reduce expenditures from this fun order to operate within a balance budget. The Parks and Recrez
Departments budget this year has been required to reduce spendin1
approximately $550,000 for FY 1992-93 coupled with reductions in spen
for FY 1991-92 the Department has reduced expenditures by 20% unde
operating Budget of FY 1990-91.
e ..

In order to fund lifeguard services from this account, other program/s would
be required to be identified, and its funding eliminated or deferred. Given the program reductions and eliminations to date, the use of the general fund
would have a serious impact to the existing operation.
Transient Occupancv Tax (TOT) - The TOT is an integral part of the general
fund in that the funds collected from local hotels and motels are used as
revenues to operate from the general fund. In essence any request for
funding from this source would be the same as a request for funding from the
above mentioned general fund.
Reauest for Lepislative Assistance - This alternative would direct staff to
investigate opportunities and request assistance from area legislators to
provide funds from State or County sources in light of this being a regional
issue in which sexvices are provided not only to Carlsbad residents but tc
citizens on a county and state wide basis as well.

Cost estimates are for two individual years. The initial year, 1992,
reflects salaries, expenses, and start up costs while the second year, 1993
reflects salaries expenses, and maintenance. Although we feel it is alread

change from year to year depending upon when Easter week falls on the
calendar.

No law enforcement is included in this plan although lifeguard staff
would provide advisory public contact regarding municipal ordinances such
as surfing, dogs, alcohol, and glass containers. In cases of continued
violation Carlsbad Police Department would be notified for enforcement.
This proposal provides for service that is phased from partial
coverage in the spring to full coverage in the summer. Service is then
phased out in the fall and concludes in October. Hours of service would
normally be 1O:OO A.M. to 6:OO P.M. for towers, and from 1O:OO A.M. to
7:OO P.M. for the lifeguard vehicle.
We recommend that towers be sited at the foot of Carlsbad Village
