ROAD TO JACKSPAR DRIVE (CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM PROJECT
NO. 6094) AT THE ESTIMATED FAIR MARKET VALUE OF $127,000
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Carlsbad, California, has determined it necessary,
desirable and in the public interest to provide road improvements along El Camino Real from Sunny
Creek Road to Jackspar Drive; and
WHEREAS, El Camino Real Widening from Sunny Creek Road to Jackspar Drive, Capital
Improvement Program, or CIP, Project No. 6094, or the Project, provides an additional northbound
vehicular travel lane, sidewalk, and enhanced buffered bike lanes; and
WHEREAS, a portion of the Project will include widening northbound El Camino Real to add a
third vehicular travel lane that will require additional right-of-way and temporary construction
easements along El Camino Real between Sunny Creek Road and Jackspar Drive from Assessor Parcel
Nos. 209-60-48, 209-60-58, and 209-90-11, or the Subject Property; and
WHEREAS, a portion of CIP Project No. 6094 is located outside the existing city right-of-way
boundary; and
WHEREAS, the fair market value of fee simple right-of-way and temporary construction
easement interests from the Subject Property was recently appraised at approximately $127,000; and
WHEREAS, sufficient funding from TransNet-Local funds is available in the Project account for
the acquisition of the property interests; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code Section 54956.8 requires that a local agency hold an
open and public session in which it identifies its negotiators, the real property or properties which the
negotiations may concern, and the person or persons with whom its negotiators may negotiate; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends that the City Council authorize Project Manager Brandon Miles,
Real Estate Manager Curtis Jackson and consultant Dokken Engineering to negotiate with the property
owners, or their agents, for acquisition of the right-of-way and construction easements from Subject
Property; and
owners, or their agents, for acquisition of the right-of-way and construction easements from Subject
Property; and
WHEREAS, the City Planner, through the process outlined in Carlsbad Municipal Code Section
19.04.060, has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects that the State Secretary for
Natural Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment, and it is therefore
categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents
pursuant to Section 15303(d) Class 3 of the California Environmental Quality Act, or CEQA, Guidelines;
and
WHEREAS, in making this determination, the City Planner has found that the exceptions listed
in Section 15300.2 of the state CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project. The project is consistent
with 15303(d) Class 3 because it consists of construction limited to new facilities, such as street
improvements of reasonable length to serve such construction. The project fills in an existing gap in
pedestrian and street facilities. The notice was circulated to the public for a 10-day period, which began
on Oct. 19, 2022, and ended on Oct. 31, 2022, and no appeal was filed.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Carlsbad, California, as
follows:
1.That the above recitations are true and correct.
2.That the City Council authorizes the Project Manager Brandon Miles, Real Estate
Manager Curtis Jackson and consultant Dokken Engineering to negotiate with the
owners of the Subject Property, or their agents, for acquisition of the right-of-way and
temporary construction easements from the Subject Property at the estimated fair
market value of $127,000.
3.That if the property owners are interested in selling the property interests for the
appraised values, Project Manager Brandon Miles, Real Estate Manager Curtis Jackson
and consultant Dokken Engineering will return to the City Council for authority to
complete the purchase.
