Subject: Amendments, Grant Funds and Engagement Plan for the South Carlsbad
Boulevard Climate Adaptation Project
Districts: 2 and 3
Recommended Actions
1.Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager or designee to execute amendments to
the State Coastal Conservancy Grant Agreement, University of California Research
Agreement, and Professional Services Agreement with GHD, Inc., for the South Carlsbad
Boulevard Climate Adaptation Project and accepting and appropriating grant funds to
the Environmental Management Department budget
2.Provide direction on the public engagement process for the South Carlsbad Boulevard
Climate Adaptation Project
Executive Summary
The City of Carlsbad is working on a grant-funded project to demonstrate how a portion of
Carlsbad Boulevard could be moved away from hazards caused by sea level rise. After exploring
options, the project team has determined that the restoration of Encinas Creek is a critical
component to the overall project. Because this was not included in the original scope of work,
the contract must be amended and additional funding, which will be provided by the California
State Coastal Conservancy, must be appropriated.
The end product of the study will be a conceptual design of how southbound Carlsbad
Boulevard from Palomar Airport Road to Island Way could be moved to the east and the coastal
land repurposed for other uses. The project team has analyzed potential roadway alternatives
based upon physical and regulatory constraints. Before the city pursues additional design work,
staff recommend engaging the public about these alternatives. Additionally, members of the
public have expressed an interest in creating a coastal park in the southwestern portion of the
city, which could include land within the project area.
The funds for the analysis of the Encinas Creek restoration would be derived from existing
project contingency funds, a reduction in research agreement funds initially intended for the
Scripps Institution of Oceanography and an augmentation to a Coastal Conservancy grant.

Discussion
Agreement amendments
On May 5, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2020-077, accepting a $498,075 grant
from the Coastal Conservancy, and entering into a research agreement with the University of
California, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, for the project. The City Manager executed a
Research Agreement in the amount of $233,074 with the University of California to assist with
the project on May 7, 2020.
On June 16, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2020-109, authorizing a professional
services agreement with GHD, Inc., for consulting services related to the project in the amount
of $249,645.
The project is focused on relocating the southbound lanes of South Carlsbad Boulevard
from approximately Manzano Drive to 400 feet south of Island Way eastward to maximize
the roadway's resiliency to coastal flooding and cliff erosion. In the area near Palomar
Airport Road and Las Encinas Creek, southbound Carlsbad Boulevard is exposed to hazards
from bluff erosion. Periodic flooding of the southbound lanes already occurs, dumping sand
and rocks from the beach on the roadway surface and lane closures.
As indicated in the city's Sea Level Rise Vulnerability Assessment report (December 2017), there
is a high risk of damage and disruption to Carlsbad Boulevard by 2050 due to rising sea level,
bluff erosion and flooding. The assessment also found that “Adaptation to sea level rise, and
other results of climate change involves taking appropriate actions to prevent or minimize the
adverse effects of climate-induced impacts.”
The project involves several phases: preliminary conceptual designs will be developed followed
by design alternatives and a design of 15%-30% of a potential preferred alternative. The project
has three components: roadway design including trails and coastal access, habitat
enhancement and community vision spaces near Palomar Airport Road and Encinas Creek. It
builds upon roadway realignment work conducted in 2012 and 2013 as part of Capital
Improvement Program Project No. 6031. Once the work is done, staff will submit a final report
to the Coastal Conservancy. All work is to be completed by Feb. 28, 2023. Staff anticipate
presenting the final report to City Council in late 2022.
Roadway realignment
The project team has explored conceptual roadway design alternatives based upon the
project’s physical constraints, most notably the coastal bluff erosion hazard, city and state
roadway design standards and policies, as well as input from key city staff and regulatory
agencies.
While the alignment of the roadway in the new eastward location is relatively fixed because of
the cliff erosion hazards, there are many potential options for components of the roadway –
the sidewalks, paths and trails, special intersection designs, lane and buffer widths and the
roadway crossing at Encinas Creek. The project team is preparing a conceptual design report
detailing the constraints and alternatives and describing the analysis that was used to develop
the conceptual designs.
Sept. 14, 2021 Item #9 Page 2 of 20
Encinas Creek restoration
As noted above, the project team
determined that the restoration Encinas
Creek in the project area is a critical
component to the overall project. This
requires additional analysis to fully inform
decision-making. One alternative involves
leaving the existing bridge, roadway and
revetment intact until they experience
significant deterioration from ocean
impacts.1 Another alternative, which is
preferred by the California Coastal
Commission and Coastal Conservancy staff, is to remove the existing bridge, roadway and
revetment and allow the creek mouth and the surrounding coastline to transition into a more
natural system.
Both alternatives would involve wetland and upland restoration along the creek. If authorized
by the City Council, the consultant, GHD Inc., would conduct the analysis described above,
which requires a revision of its contract scope of work and budget. The proposed amendment
to the city’s professional services agreement with the consultant, including the scope of work
and budget, is included in Exhibit 1 as Attachment C.
Public spaces, coastal access and parking
The eastward relocation of the existing southbound roadway provides opportunities for a range
of alternative uses in the areas west of the realigned roadway, most notably near Palomar
Airport Road and Encinas Creek. The project team conducted interviews with staff from the
Community Development Department Planning Division, Parks & Recreation Department and
California State Parks to evaluate the types and intensities of potential uses in these areas. On a
parallel and related track is the city’s evaluation of potential park and open space opportunities
within the city’s southwest quadrant, which the City Council directed staff to do in a minute
motion on July 14, 2020 and on Jan. 26, 2021. The project team continues to coordinate with
the Community Development and Parks & Recreation departments on these overlapping
efforts.
There is no developed coastal access down to the beach in this area. Instead, there are a
number of informal paths on the bluffs made by beachgoers over the years, which exacerbates
bluff erosion. The project team has worked with State Parks and California Coastal Commission
staff to identify tentative locations for beach access improvements, most notably at the
Solamar Drive intersection and Encinas Creek.
Parking availability is important to ensure coastal access. As the bluff erodes, some existing
parking locations may be lost. To maintain no net loss of parking, alternative locations should
be identified and developed, and staff recommend a phasing plan for the transition. State Parks
owns a parcel west of the Palomar Airport Road intersection, which currently contains an
informal dirt parking area commonly known as “Turnarounds.” State Parks also owns the
1 Revetments are sloping structures placed on riverbanks or bluffs to absorb the energy of incoming water.
Sept. 14, 2021 Item #9 Page 3 of 20
western half of the parking area just north of the campground. The remainder of the property is
within the city’s right of-way.
The project team will continue to work with staff in various city departments, State Parks and
the California Coastal Commission to identify suitable parking locations and a phasing plan that
accommodates bluff erosion while maintaining parking space amounts.
Options
Agreement amendments
Staff provide the following options on the agreement amendments for the City Council’s
consideration:
1. Adopt a resolution authorizing execution of amendments to the State Coastal
Conservancy grant agreement, the University of California, Scripps Institution of
Oceanography research agreement and the professional services agreement with GHD
Inc.
Pros
• Provides an analysis of restoration alternatives to help inform conceptual designs
of the roadway, trails, coastal access and community vision spaces
• Evaluates the physical and ecological interactions between Encinas Creek and the
shoreline through the lens of sea level rise and increased storm and wave
intensity
• Scripps Institution of Oceanography can still complete the necessary cliff hazards
analysis with the remaining available research agreement funds
• Sufficient funding is available for the agreement without the use of city funds
Cons
• None identified
2. Do not adopt a resolution authorizing the execution of the amendments
• None identified
Cons
• The conceptual design decisions at and near Encinas Creek would be less
informed
• The potential future interaction between the creek and surrounding area with the
expected sea level rise and increased storm and wave intensity would be
unknown
• Rejection of additional grant funding from the State Coastal Conservancy may
cause a need for city funding later in the project’s implementation if information
about Encinas Creek is needed
Staff recommend Option 1 for the City Council’s approval – adopt a resolution authorizing
execution of amendments State Coastal Conservancy grant agreement, the University of
California, Scripps Institution of Oceanography research agreement and the professional
services agreement with GHD Inc.
Public engagement
Because so many people are affected by the design and function of Carlsbad’s coastline,
potential changes are very likely to draw significant interest from a wide array of community
Sept. 14, 2021 Item #9 Page 4 of 20
members. City staff are seeking feedback from the City Council on how and when to engage the
community in the design of the 1-mile segment of roadway and the public use areas along the
coast.
Carlsbad Boulevard Realignment
Project
City staff had begun the process
of engaging the public in
identifying needs, values and
priorities along south Carlsbad
Boulevard between 2010-13.
The Carlsbad Boulevard
Realignment Project originally
included exploring a potential
land swap with the state of
California and moving Carlsbad Boulevard to the east from Palomar Airport Road to La Costa
Avenue.
Because of the complexities of the land swap, the City Council directed staff in 2013 to redefine
the city’s approach to coastal improvements by focusing on land controlled by the city. The
Carlsbad Boulevard Realignment Project has remained in the city’s Capital Improvement
Program, but it has not been prioritized for implementation.
The 1-mile study area that is included in the South Carlsbad Boulevard Climate Adaptation
Project is within the Carlsbad Boulevard Realignment Project area.
Previous outreach
The outreach for the Carlsbad Boulevard Realignment Project conducted from 2010-13 included
preliminary discussions with property owners along Carlsbad Boulevard, including existing hotel
properties, Poinsettia Cove, Waters End, and the Lanakai Lane and Solamar Mobile Estates
communities. Initial feedback was also gathered from groups concerned about mobility and
coastal protection.
The project team at that time also met with state elected officials, and state and federal wildlife
agencies. A project website was created, and the city included information about the project in
city newsletters and news releases about the City Council goals. Had this project proceeded, the
next step would have been a broad public engagement process to develop a vision for south
Carlsbad Boulevard.
Engagement on similar projects
When the City Council decided to focus on coastal improvements on land controlled by the city,
city staff engaged the Carlsbad community in the planning of two other coastal projects, the
Terramar Area Coastal Improvement Project and the Carlsbad Boulevard and Tamarack Avenue
Pedestrian Improvements Project. Through these processes, community members have shared
their ideas and concerns related to mobility, coastal access, recreation, traffic flow and
community character along Carlsbad’s coastline.
Sept. 14, 2021 Item #9 Page 5 of 20
Opportunities for engagement
The South Carlsbad Boulevard Climate Adaptation Project includes two general topic areas that
would benefit from public input.
• Roadway design: In moving the southbound lanes to the east, farther away from the
ocean, the design of the road would change. As noted above, the eastward extent of the
alignment is fairly set, based on the location of the northbound lanes and the extent of
the city’s right-of-way, but the public input could influence the number of lanes, the
types of intersection controls used, such as roundabouts or traffic signals, and the types
and locations of bike lanes and walking paths.
• Coastal uses: Moving the roadway to the east would free up coastal land for other uses,
such as parking and parks spaces for gathering, recreation and expanded trails and bike
paths. Public input could help prioritize and shape the design of this space.
Options
Public engagement
Because of the overlap in project areas, staff have identified three public engagement options
for the City Council’s consideration and direction:
Option 1: Proceed with the 15%-30% conceptual design required by the South Carlsbad
Boulevard Climate Adaption Study Project grant from a technical standpoint, but wait to
engage the public until the city is ready to move forward with the Carlsbad Boulevard
Realignment Project. The first step of the Carlsbad Boulevard Realignment Project would be
to work with the community to develop a vision for the entire corridor, from Palomar
Airport Road to La Costa Avenue.
Pros
• Could provide a more cohesive overall design of the coastline
• Would provide greater options and opportunities to address the community’s
input because the planning area would be larger and more diverse
• Could help address residents’ concerns about park land in the southwest
quadrant by identifying all of the potential coastal open space areas south of
Manzano Drive and Palomar Airport Road and how they could be used
Cons
• Creating community consensus around a comprehensive vision for south
Carlsbad Boulevard would take a minimum of 12 to 18 months
• The vision could not be completed in time to influence the 15% to 30% design
requirement of the South Carlsbad Boulevard Climate Adaption Study Project
grant
• Even if the city stresses that the 15%-30% designs are conceptual and could
change based on input at a later time, the community could still feel city staff
have predetermined ideas and biases for the project because they have already
created a conceptual design
Option 2: Engage the public in the design of the roadway and public spaces in the mile-
long project area only.
Pros
• Outreach could be completed in time to influence the project’s conceptual
design.
Sept. 14, 2021 Item #9 Page 6 of 20
• The public could envision the entire South Carlsbad Boulevard Climate
Adaptation Project area, rather than only the roadway.
Cons
• It could be hard for the public to visualize how this segment would eventually
work with the rest of the corridor. Or, conversely, the community could provide
input for this segment that would limit future options for other segments.
• Options for the public space would be greater if they were considered with
other public spaces along the corridor.
Option 3: Engage the public in the design of just the mile-long segment of the roadway
included in the climate adaption study, not the public coastal uses.
Pros
• Prioritizes the roadway, which is the infrastructure threatened by sea level rise
• The roadway conceptual design would reflect community needs, values and
priorities
• Because options for the road alignment of this segment are limited, the scope of
the engagement would be narrower (than if coastal uses were also discussed)
and could be completed more quickly
Cons
• Although the road segment is relatively small, a large number of people travel
through the area and would be highly interested in potential changes. This
means those interested in this project would be relatively the same as if the city
were engaging the public on both parts of the project. The city would then need
to re-engage at a later time on the public uses and on rest of the corridor. This
would result in multiple engagement processes rather than just one.
Staff request the City Council’s direction on how to proceed with the public engagement
process.
Fiscal Analysis
Agreement amendments
The additional $90,000 proposed for the Encinas Creek restoration alternatives analysis is
derived from three sources: existing project contingency funds, a reduction in the University of
California, Scripps Institution of Oceanography research agreement amount and a State Coastal
Conservancy grant augmentation. The existing project contingency funds total $15,356, the
reduction in Scripps Institution of Oceanography’s research agreement funds total $39,544, and
the Coastal Conservancy grant augmentation funds total $35,100, for a combined total of
$90,000. No additional city funds are necessary to fund the alternatives analysis.
Public engagement
The cost of the proposed community engagement is estimated to be between $45,000 to
$150,000, depending on the option selected; staff time is estimated to be between 150 and 650
hours. Approximately $115,000 has been set aside in the fiscal year 2021-22 budget to provide
communication support for this project. These funds would be sufficient to implement public
engagement options two and three, however the first option would require additional funding
in the fiscal year 2022-23 budget.
Sept. 14, 2021 Item #9 Page 7 of 20
Next Steps
If authorized, staff will execute the agreement amendments and begin work on the Encinas
Creek restoration alternatives. The project team will also continue implementation of the plan,
including furthering the conceptual design alternatives for the roadway, trails, community
vision spaces, coastal access and parking. As the implementation progresses, the project’s
webpage will be updated with pertinent information and reports.
Staff will proceed on the public engagement process based on the City Council’s direction.
Environmental Evaluation
In accordance with California Public Resources Code Section 21065, the action to award a
professional services agreement for engineering design services does not constitute a “project”
within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act in that it has no potential to
cause either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect
physical change in the environment and therefore does not require environmental review.
Public Notification and Outreach
This item was noticed in keeping with the state's Ralph M. Brown Act and it was available for
public viewing and review at least 72 hours before the scheduled meeting date.

EXHIBIT "A"
SCOPE OF SERVICES AND FEE
South Carlsbad Blvd Climate Adaptation Project -Las Encinas Creek Restoration Concepts
Outlined below is a scope of services to advance the design development of two managed retreat and
restoration concepts being conceived for the Las Encinas Creek Vision Area . These concepts were
previously presented to the Project team and partners as the 1) Let it Go and 2) Phased Retreat options.
Both alternatives include the relocation of South Carlsbad Blvd to the existing northbound corridor;
however, the timeframe for the removal of the southbound corridor infrastructure (roadway fill prism,
bridge, rock revetment) differs.
The Let it Go alternative would remove southbound South Carlsbad Blvd infrastructure immediately to re-
establish a more natural cross-shore gradient and morphological processes in hopes of sustaining a
coastal pocket beach, dune, and dune0slack wetland habitats. Removal of this infrastructure will result in
morphological changes to the system seasonally, episodically and over longer time scales as water levels
rise. The longevity and evolution of restored features with increasing water levels is a primary question
within this alternative that this proposal seeks to help provide further clarity.
The Phased Retreat alternative would either leave in place or partially remove the southbound South
Carlsbad Blvd infrastructure for interim passive or active recreational uses until coastal hazards
overwhelm the repurposed space. Landward of the southbound roadway, both alternatives would restore
the backshore seasonally brackish tidal wetlands and freshwater riparian slack pond system through
grading and revegetation. To support restoration design and aide in the decision making between these
two options, GHD proposes to undertake the following scope of services:
• Assess tidal, freshwater and groundwater influences
• Fill data gaps identified in the previous phase
• Develop a numerical model of freshwater flow and flood events
• Characterize the coastal processes that influence the site form/function; and
• Develop conceptual designs for two (2) alternatives
Task 1: Project Management and Meetings
Work under this task includes time for contract administration and quality control reviews of all
submittals. GHD staff will attend up to three (3) meetings with City and Coastal Conservancy. Meeting
schedule and objectives will be determined once authorized. This does not include time for meeting
coordination or communications with other stakeholders.
Task 1 Deliverables: Draft work products wi/1 be shared at the meetings to solicit preliminary feedback.
Task 2: Site Assessment
The purpose of this task is to gather and integrate supplemental site conditions data and perform
hydraulic and geomorphic analysis to inform the conceptual design.
Sept. 14, 2021 Item #9 Page 18 of 20
DocuSign Envelope ID: CC0BE4B2-ADDE-49ED-9B15-D700634793F2
Sub-Task 2.1: Topographic Survey and Habitat Mapping
PSA20-1135ENV
Exhibit "A" (continued)
GHD will conduct two (2) days of topographic and vegetation surveys to characterize existing
conditions. Existing data will be integrated with newly collected data to support hydraulic
modeling, monitoring, and wetland design. Habitat mapping will improve resolution of existing
and inaccurate data between the railroad prism and northbound S. Carlsbad Blvd and better
define bare earth elevations and ecotone transitions zones. Information gathered will be
integrated into a restoration base map to support design.
Sub-Task 2.2: Encinas Creek Hydraulic Analysis
GHD will expand the existing FEMA HEC-RAS model from the railroad crossing to the ocean. The
model will be utilized to characterize current peak flood conveyance through the corridor over the
current and future range of tidal conditions. In conceptual design, GHD will use the hydraulic
model to evaluate grading and flow alignments for restoration alternatives and evaluate the
potential for structural scour at the modified northbound S. Carlsbad Blvd bridge during periods of
peak discharge. Modeled inflows and tidal boundary conditions will be obtained from the FEMA
FIS. Modeling inputs, results and recommendations for design will be presented in the technical
memorandum (Task 3).
Sub-Task 2.3: Monitoring of Flood. Seasonal and Tidal Wetland Hydrology (Optional)
Under this task GHD would install and maintain a water level monitoring stations at three (3)
locations to characterize tidal and surface water influences, and the depth and salinity of
groundwater in the project area. Continuous and synoptic water and salinity measurements
would be conducted over two (2) 6-week periods representative of wet and dry season
conditions. Monthly and up to 4 event-based measurements would be collected to characterize
flood and seasonal groundwater recession.
Data obtained from this task will: 1) help calibrate the hydraulic model, 2) increase the
understanding of the existing vegetation dependency on surface/groundwater hydrology and 3)
inform restoration design on habitat transgression. The seasonality of this task could hold-up
progress on other tasks and is therefore considered an optional task.
Sub-Task 2.4: Shoreline Response Assessment
To support design and selection of a preferred restoration approach, GHD will develop conceptual
models of system evolution for each alternative. To inform projections of future conditions, GHD
will develop conceptual shoreline response models by gathering and integrating historical and
reference site data with available CoSMoS coastal erosion predictions and site conditions data
(Tasks 2.1-2.3). Impacts associated with both sea level rise and episodic events will be
considered.
Task 2 Deliverables: Methods and results from above sub-tasks will be summarized in the Technical
Memorandum (Task 3).
Task 3: Conceptual Design and Technical Report
Sub-Task 3.1: Conceptual Design Drawings
Following the site assessment (Task 2), GHD will prepare draft concepts identifying design
objectives, opportunities and limitations, site grading, infrastructure modification and expected
habitats. GHD will prepare two conceptual design drawing sheets (plan and cross section) for each
alternative. Conceptual designs will be developed for each alternative to include proposed
grading, infrastructure modifications and habitat types shown schematically in plan view and
cross-section to convey the design intent.
I
Sept. 14, 2021 Item #9 Page 19 of 20
Sub-Task 3.2: Alternative Habitat Evolution and Wetland Conversion Assessment
For each alternative, shoreline response elements identified in Task 2.4 will be utilized to perform
a spatial conversion analysis to characterize expected habitat evolution and wetland/upland
ecotone response under three scenarios 1) constructed, 2) mid-century SLR and 3) late-century
SLR. Each of these scenarios will be compared to existing conditions. The habitat acreages will be
quantified to compare/contrast between the alternatives.
Sub-Task 3.3: Technical Memorandum
GHD will summarize the site assessment (Task 2) sub-tasks and present the conceptual designs as
text and graphics in a brief technical memorandum. The following will be included:
•Summarize information above
•Description of both alternatives with graphics
•Describe evolution of shoreline and habitat types
•Next steps
