Consider Granting Water and Sewer Easements to Ventura County Waterworks District #1 at Arroyo Vista Community Park. Staff Recommendation: Approve granting of sewer and water easements to Ventura County Waterworks District #1 at Arroyo Vista Community Park and authorize the Mayor to sign the easements. Item: 10.F. MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT TO: Honorable City Council FROM: Jessica Sandifer, Community Services Manager DATE: 02/06/2019 Regular Meeting SUBJECT: Consider Granting Water and Sewer Easements to Ventura County Waterworks District #1 at Arroyo Vista Community Park BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION During the construction of the Recreational Trail Project at AVCP, Ventura County Waterworks District #1 (WWD#1) notified the City that no easements for water or sewer existed east of the recreation center for WWD#1’s water and sewer facilities. WWD#1’s water and sewer lines were extended to accommodate the restroom facility that was constructed at the east end of the park in 2002. WWD#1 requested that the City prepare and grant these easements to WWD#1. During the preparation and review of these easements it was further discovered that no easement had been granted to WWD#1 for the fire hydrant lateral line that runs from the access road into Parking Lot A, west of the recreation center. All of the easement documents and legal descriptions have been prepared and reviewed by the County. Staff is recommending that the City Council grant these easements to WWD#1 to legitimize the access to their facilities within the park. FISCAL IMPACT The cost to survey and prepare the easements was $5,750. No additional fiscal impact will occur due to granting the easements. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve granting of sewer and water easements to Ventura County Waterworks District #1 at Arroyo Vista Community Park and authorize the Mayor to sign the easements.
