AGENDA REPORT _Aka- 3.51 f. / BY: `f h- TO: Honorable City Council FROM: Dave Klotzle, City Engineer/Public Works Director DATE: February 24, 2015 (CC Meeting of 3/4/15) SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Amending the Fiscal Year 2014/15 Budget to Fund Drainage Improvements at 11910 Poindexter Avenue DISCUSSION The private storm drain improvements located on the property owned by Pindler & Pindler, Inc. (Pindler), at 11910 Poindexter Avenue, connect to, and accept storm water runoff from a catch basin located in City right-of-way on Poindexter Avenue. The City holds an Easement Deed for the Right to Dispose of Storm Water (Easement Deed) onto the subject property, executed on May 17, 1984, when the property was initially developed. Over the years, the private storm drain system was damaged by tree roots and partially plugged with debris, reducing the amount of storm water it could effectively convey to the downstream storm drain system. Under certain storm conditions, storm water would back up out of the private storm drain and flow on the surface to the next downstream storm drain inlet located south of Pindler's property. At times, storm water would also back up out of the catch basin and pond on Poindexter Avenue. In December 2012, Pindler installed a new storm drain system on their property but did not extend the new pipe to the catch basin on Poindexter Avenue. On July 29, 2013, Pindler tendered a Notice of Claim to the City alleging that the City caused damage to the Pindler building by having unlawfully diverted storm water from Poindexter Avenue onto Pindler's property. The City disputed Pindler's allegations, contending it is authorized to divert storm water from Poindexter Avenue onto Pindler's property pursuant to the Easement Deed. To resolve the disputed issues, the City and Pindler executed a Mutual General Release and Settlement Agreement (Agreement) on April 2, 2014. 72 Honorable City Council March 4, 2015 Page 2 The Agreement provides that upon completion of certain drainage and landscaping improvements by Pindler, the City will pay $27,000 to Pindler. The improvements, including a new, larger catch basin on Poindexter Avenue and two new pipes connecting the catch basin to Pindler's drainage system, have been completed and were inspected and approved by the City on February 12, 2015. FISCAL IMPACT A resolution amending the FY 2014/15 budget is required to appropriate $27,000 for the payment to Pindler. STAFF RECOMMENDATION (ROLL CALL VOTE) Adopt Resolution No. 2015 - amending the Fiscal Year 2014/15 budget to appropriate $27,000 from the General Fund Reserve (1000) to fund drainage improvements at 11910 Poindexter Avenue.
