GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY FINDING FOR THE CITY'S LA COSTA AVENUE
CORRIDOR PROJECTS
P(
P your request, the following is a brief description of the La
osta Avenue Corridor projects:
PROJECT NUMBER PROJECT DESCRIPTION
3208 La Costa Avenue Widening, 1-5
to El Camino Real
This project proposes complete reconstruction of La Costa
Avenue from 1-5 to El Camino Real to major arterial
standards. A series of planted cribwalls will be installed
on the south side of La Costa Avenue to protect existing
bluffs, promote erosion control and minimize any further
encroachment into this area. Tentative project schedule is
for 1988-89. David Ashley of Willdan Associates is the
project engineer of record for this project.
3215 La Costa Avenue and El Camino
Real Intersection Improvements
This project will improve the intersection of La Costa Avenue
and El Camino Real and will involve a new traffic signal
system, roadway widening a distance of approximately 1,500
feet on La Costa Avenue, west of El Camino Real, and other
roadway improvements. The project is currently funded and
tentatively scheduled to go to bid within thirty (30) to
sixty (60) days. The City has received a Coastal Permit, a
Corps permit, and a 1601 Fish and Game Agreement. Dave
Ashley is also to be contacted for any specific details on
the project. Copies of the plans and specifications are
available for your review in Municipal Projects.
3218 La Costa Avenue and I-S
Interim Intersection
Improvements
This project is on hold. The City's proposal to install
traffic signals as an interim traffic measure at La Costa
Avenue and 1-5 was rejected by CALTRANS. CALTRANS' position
is that a signal system should not be installed prior to the
. 0
-2-
ultimate enlargement of the freeway overpass. Negotiations
will CALTRANS will resume in the future when the schedule for
the widening project is firm. Nevertheless, a General Plan
consistency finding should be secured.
WAVJ La Costa Avenue and 1-5
Freeway Overpass
This project proposes the enlargement of the freeway overpass
at La Costa and 1-5 to ultimate width. This project is a
minimum of three (3) to five (5) years away.
3233 La Costa Avenue Mitigation
Plan
The Coastal Commission as a condition of issuance of the
permit for the intersection project requires extensive
mitigation efforts to replace proposed lagoon wetland
disturbance. The City's proposal which was accepted by the
Coastal Commission will replace disturbed wetland and
riparian areas for all of the La Costa Corridor projects
concurrent with the intersection improvements. This project
is scheduled to go to bid within thirty (30) to sixty (60)
days. The mitigation plans are out for agency review and
comments at the present time. Dave Ashley from Willdan is
also the contact for this project. Plans are on file in
Municipal Projects.
