ENGLE, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY SERVICE SUBJECT: APROVE AGREEMENT WITH THE COUNTY OF ORVfAl2 FEDERAL BEACH EROSION CONTROL PROJECT, Statement of Issue, Funding Source, Recommended Action, Alternative Action(s), Analysis, Environmental Status, Attachment(s) Statement of Issue: Should the city participate, as it has previously, with the County of Orange in the Federal Beach Erosion Control Project, Stage 12, for beach sand replenishment? Funding Source: Second Tier Reserve Fund. Transfer $39,200 into Community Services Administration Contractual Services account #10045101.69450. Recommended Action: Motion to: 1.

Authorize the Director of Finance to transfer $39,200 from the Second Tier Reserve Fund into Contractual Services account #10045101.69450 for the Federal Beach Erosion Control Project, Stage 12 for sand replenishment. Alternative Action(s): Do not participate in the Federal Beach Erosion Control Project, Stage 12 for sand replenishment REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: 5/5/2008 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: CS 08-008 Analysis: The city has been working with other coastal cities, the County of Orange, the State of California, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers since 1963 to allow Orange County to serve as lead agency in dealing with the Army Corps of Engineers for the sand replenishment project. The beach is supplied with sand from various rivers and tributaries in Orange and Los Angeles Counties. Over the years, flood control projects, jetties, and harbor development have inhibited the littoral drift currents that distribute sand along the coast; therefore requiring periodic replenishment. From 1964 to date, there have been 11 replenishment projects. The last replenishment project was in 2001. Stage 12 is a continuation of this program. The Stage 12 project area extends from Anaheim Bay Harbor to the west jetty of Newport Beach Harbor. Federal, State, and local agencies provide funding according to an established formula set up in the agreement. The County indicates that the monies need to be accumulated by May 1, 2008. The Army Corps of Engineers has indicated that the cost of the program will be $15,700,000. The breakdown of agencies and related costs are as follows: Federal Government $10,519,000 State of California $4,759,267 Local Agency Shoreline Owners Consisting of City, County, Private Property Owners, and State Division of Beaches and Recreation *$421,733 TOTAL $15, 700, 000 *The shoreline owners' proportionate share, based on the engineering consultant's estimate, is $421,733 for Stage 12. Each property owner's cost is based upon a formula depicting the percentage of 80,000 linear feet of beach frontage property owned by each entity that is within the federal project area. **The actual project cost can be less than the engineer's estimate. If this is the case, the surplus funds are used in the next stage, thereby reducing the amount owed by each beach owner. That is the reason the projected cost of $421,733 has been reduced to $236,600 for Stage 12. Private Beach Owners: Surfside Colony, Storm Water Protection District Public Beach Owners: Orange County Harbors, Beaches, and Parks Orange County: City of Huntington Beach City of Newport Beach $19,000 $5,600 $39,200 $172, 800 TOTAL **$236,600 -2- 4/17/2008 9:17 AM REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: 5/5/2008 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: CS 08-008 Strategic Plan Goal: Create an environment that promotes tourism to increase revenues to support community services and transform the city's economy into a destination economy. City Council Adopted Policy re: Mid -Year Appropriation Requests from the General Fund: As adopted by City Council in March 1998, all requests for appropriation of General Funds must meet one of the following criteria: 1) unanticipated emergency; 2) required to implement labor negotiations; or 3) a new expense offset by related new revenues. This request meets criterion #1 because the city is participating in a county sand replenishment program to prevent flooding. The emergency has county -wide impacts to some beach cities more than a direct city danger; however, notification did not come within the period of budget preparation.
