The project also includes the construction of a protective concrete cap over the existing 36-inch Calleguas Municipal Water District (Calleguas) Las Posas Feeder Unit 1 (LPF-1) pipeline. Several Calleguas LPF-1 and Las Posas Feeder No. 3 valves and manholes also must be adjusted or relocated to the south beyond the widened roadway. On April 3, 2013, the City Council authorized the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Calleguas for the required pipeline protection and adjustment work and for the City to provide an easement to Calleguas over their facilities. The agreement with Calleguas has been executed and a deposit of $55,000.00 has been placed with Calleguas for the cost of the pipeline work. On January 16, 2013 the City Council approved the project and authorized staff to advertise for construction bids, and on October 2, 2013, the City Council awarded a contract to Sully Miller Contracting Company for construction of the project. Prior to construction, the easement to Calleguas must be granted by the City and accepted by Calleguas. The attached easement documentation has been prepared and staff is requesting that City Council approve the grant of easement to Calleguas and authorize the Mayor to sign the easement grant deed.
