SUBJECT: POINSETTIA LANE REACH No. 2-4d MITIGATION
Dear Don:
As you are aware, the Oceanbluff Project, CT93-09(A), has agreed (under the approved
Poinsettia Lane Reimbursement Agreement) to construct Poinsettia Lane from the Oceanbluff
entry street to Blackrail Road, also known as Poinsettia Lane Reach No. 2. As part of the
Poinsettia Lane Reach No. 2 project, we have submitted an application under the Interim Take
Provision of the 4d Rule. Pursuant to Condition Number 5 of CT93-09 (A), Oceanbluff is
required to mitigate impacts to Coastal Sage Scrub and Southern Maritime Chaparral prior to the
issuance of a grading permit for Poinsettia Lane Reach No. 2.
Inasmuch as the construction of Poinsettia Lane (from Aviara Parkway to Blackrail Road) is a
high priority project for the City, we currently believe that mitigating the "Take" in the
Manchester Avenue Conservation Bank is the most cost effective and expeditious way to handle
the mitigation and thereby allow us to proceed with the grading of Reach No. 2 concurrent with
the grading of Reach No. 1.
If this form of mitigation is acceptable to the City, please so indicate by signing this letter and
returning to me. We will then proceed to acquire the requisite mitigation credits. The cost for
the mitigation is a reimbursable expense under Bridge & Thoroughfare District No. 2. and is
addressed in the Poinsettia Lane Reimbursement Agreement.
Thank you for your assistance.
Sincerely,
CATELKUS RESIDENTIAL GROUP, INC.
