Uberuaga, City Administrator Prepared by: Louis F. Sandoval, Director of Public Worksfi t(livt>> Subject: Landscape Easement 17th/Palm - Island "T", Tract 14139 Lots 4, 5 & 6 APPROVED BY CITY COUNCII 9iConsistent with Council Policy? ] Yes [ ] New Policy or Exception ly Statement of Issue, Recommendation, Analysis, Funding Source, Alternative Ac ions, Atta I a • . Artjf. s �� STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Landscape Easement is necessary to save 10 mature eucalyptus trees. RECOMMENDATION: Accept the Landscape Easement from Seacliff Partners to the City of Huntington Beach and execute the certificate of Acceptance of Easement Deed. ANALYSIS: Tract 14139 was an oil island which had perimeter blockwall and eucalyptus trees planted (outside of the wall) to screen the facility as required by Huntington Beach code. The existing perimeter blockwall, if removed and relocated at property line, will require removal of the ten (10) existing trees. The City has required the developer to keep the existing blockwall, on private property, in an effort to save the trees. The trees will be trimmed by the developer for removal of dead and undesirable limbs for aesthetics and safety, prior to acceptance of the tract. In order to save the 10 mature eucalyptus trees a landscape easement is necessary. The landscape easement is approximately five feet (5') wide and two hundred feet (200') long. It is located on Seventeenth (17th) Street on the northwest corner of 17th and Palm Avenue. The easement includes an area from face of block wall to public right-of-way at back edge of sidewalk on 17th Street. (see attached sketch) lain c/or Should the City not accept the proposed landscape easement with existing trees, each individual resident will be responsible to maintain these trees as located in each lot. There is no homeowners association for this tract and there was no condition for the tract to form an association. Also, at a later date, if the trees are in private property, the resident owners may remove the trees and blockwall and relocate new wall at property line immediately adjacent to sidewalk. By acceptance of this easement the City will be responsible for maintenance and liability of the trees. However, the residents of the area and the Community in general will have the benefit of ten (10) mature trees to view and appreciate. ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS: N/A FUNDING SOURCE: Maintenance of the trees will be funded from existing budgeted funds as approved by City Council each fiscal year. We estimate contract trimming will cost$1,000.00 every two years to maintain these ten (10) trees. ALTERNATIVE ACTION: Do not accept landscape easement and leave the trees in private property for each lot owners care and maintenance. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Landscape Easement Sketch 2.
