CAO RECOMMENDATION:
By motion,
1) Approve specifications for "Bank Stabilization Project: Old Garden Creek at Mtn. View Street,
Specification No. 400.9661.520.553";
2) Authorize staff to advertise for bids; and
3) Appropriate $ 30,000.00 from 1995/96 Zone 9 revenue for this project.
DISCUSSION:
The bank of Old Garden Creek at Mtn View was at one time contained by a wood slat retaining wall.
This wall has rotted through over the years, and last year a portion of the bank washed into the creek.
The property owner asked the City to do something about the erosion. The City has an easement to
maintain and improve the creek in the proposed project area, and the Assistant City Attorney determined
that the City was responsible to prevent the further erosion of the bank. The City will remove what
remains of the wood retaining wall and replace it with a gabion wall to prevent further erosion of the
property.
CONCURRENCES:
Community Development Department has given this project a categorical exemption. This project has
been approved for construction by the State Department of Fish and Game, the Army Corps of Engineers
and the California Regional Water Quality Board.
