declaring a continued state of local emergency,
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On March 15, 2005 the City Council adopted a Declaration of a Local Emergency
recommended by the City Manager due to the torrential rain and earth movement beginning
January 7, 2005. The Council received an update from staff on Friday, March 18, 2005.
The areas affected by storm damage and continued earth movement included the Marbella
condominium project, the residential homes beneath the slope on Agua Duke Court, the
residential homes beneath Las Olas Court, and the Jefferson Street damage adjacent to
Buena Vista Lagoon. Staff is available to answer any questions the Council may have on
the measures taken to address this local emergency and what future measures will be
considered.
The Council adopted Resolution No. 2005-099 at its meeting of Tuesday, April 5, 2005 and
adopted Resolution No. 2005-124 at its meeting of Tuesday, April 26, 2005 continuing the
existence of a local emergency even though the actual flooding has now ended but there is
a continuing need for damage repairs, assessments and mitigation measures, erosion
control measures and other measures to further prevent perilous damage and to ensure the
health and safety of the citizens of Carlsbad
State law requires that the Council review the status of the local emergency at least every
21 days and extend it until it is terminated and there is no longer a need for emergency
powers and that the situation has resulted in conditions which are now deemed to be within
the control of the normal protective services, personnel, equipment and facilities of the City.
If Council deems it appropriate, staff will present a report on the scope of this emergency,
the responses to it and the necessity and appropriateness of future response actions.
FISCAL IMPACT:
A total of $2,100,000 has been appropriated for emergency contract services for repair of
various damaged public property within the city. This appropriation includes $950,000 for
Rancho Santa Fe Road at Agua Duke Court, $900,000 for La Costa Avenue at Marbella
and $250,000 for general debris cleanup.
To date, the City has paid and/or encumbered a total of $456,240 for the emergency work.
This leaves a remaining balance of $1,643,760 in available appropriations.
\
PAGE 2 OF AGENDA BILL NO. 18,124
Staff estimates that total emergency repair costs will eventually be $3,700,000. As a result,
staff is now requesting an additional appropriation of $1,600,000 to cover all remaining
costs for emergency repairs. Prior to the conclusion of the emergency, the Council will be
presented with a full accounting of all costs including all material, labor, regular and
professional services, and the amount of reimbursement, if received, from state and/or
federal agencies
