REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBMITTED BY: Al Zelinka, City Manager
VIA: Chau Vu, Director of Public Works
PREPARED BY: Chris Davis, Senior Management Analyst
Subject:
Appropriate $210,000 from the Drainage Fund (211) to repair damage to the Hamilton Flood
Control Station and Slater Flood Control Station
Statement of Issue:
The City operates 15 flood control stations that pump storm water from lower elevations within the
City into the flood control channels. The Hamilton Flood Control Station and Slater Flood Control
Station experienced damage in the recent storms and require repair in advance of the rainy season.
The City Council is requested to appropriate $210,000 from the Drainage Fund (211) to repair the
damage to the stations.
Financial Impact:
Staff requests a budget appropriation of$210,000 from the Drainage Fund unreserved fund balance
to business unit 21185201.82500.
Recommended Action:
Appropriate $210,000 from the Drainage Fund (211) to repair damage to the Hamilton Flood Control
Station and Slater Flood Control Station.
Alternative Action(s):
Do not appropriate funds for the repair of the Hamilton Flood Control Station and Slater Flood Control
Station. Failure to repair these stations may result in flooding of local streets, residences and
business in the areas served by these flood control stations during heavy rainfall.
Analysis:
The City has 15 flood control stations located at low elevation areas prone to flooding during heavy
rainfall. These stations pump water from lower elevations to County-owned flood control channels to
prevent water from inundating street, residences and business located in the surrounding area.

Two of these stations, Hamilton Flood Control Station and Slater Flood Control Station, experienced
damage that require immediate repair in order to be operational before the coming rainy season.
Hamilton Flood Control Station
The Hamilton Flood Control Station is located on Hamilton Avenue, east of Brookhurst Street. During
annual summer maintenance on the station, City crews discovered that the right angle gear drive on
pump #1 had failed following the last rain event of the season and needs to be replaced as soon as
possible. Due to pump#1 being out of service, flood control crews had to compensate during last
summer's Hurricane Hillary and add excess load to pumps #3 and #4. The added load was beyond
the capacity of the heat exchangers originally installed on these pumps. Therefore, funding is also
included in this request to upsize the heat exchangers. The total cost for the Hamilton Flood Control
Station repairs is $120,000.
Slater Flood Control Station
Slater Flood Control Station is located at the terminus of Slater Avenue near Graham Street. The
right-angle gear drive on Pump #1 at the Slater Flood Control Station was damaged when a tire was
drawn into the station during last summer's Hurricane Hillary event, resulting in heavy damage to the
internal gears. The total cost for the Slater Flood Control Station repairs is $90,000.
Staff has obtained quotes from existing service contracts to make the necessary repairs. Once
funding is approved, it is anticipated that repairs will begin immediately and repairs should take
approximately sixty (60) days to complete.
Environmental Status:
This action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections
• 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change
in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the
CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for
resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
