Webb, Public Works Director 949 - 644 -3311, dawebb @newportbeachca.gov PREPARED BY: Kathryne Cho APPROVED: TITLE: Vacation of Existing Sewer Easements at 300 West Coast Highway, 303 Kings Road, 100 Kings Place and 104 Kings Place ABSTRACT: The developer of the Mariner's Pointe Development, located at 300 West Coast Highway, is requesting the vacation of the sewer easements at 300 West Coast Highway, 303 Kings Road, 100 Kings Place and 104 Kings Place. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Conduct public hearing and close public hearing for the vacation of existing sewer easements. 2. If desired, (a) adopt a Resolution ordering the vacation of existing sewer easements, (b) direct staff to process the vacation of said easements, and (c) direct the City Clerk to have the Resolution and easement documents recorded by the Orange County Recorder. FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: There is no fiscal impact related to this item. DISCUSSION: To accommodate the approved Mariner's Pointe Development, the existing 8 -inch sanitary sewer line ( "Sewer ") which once ran through the project site towards West Coast Highway has been rerouted along the bottom of the hillside to discharge towards Dover Drive. Several new 10 -foot wide easements have been granted to the City by the adjacent properties above the proposed development, specifically 303 Kings Road, 100 Kings Place and 104 Kings Place. I of 8 Vacation of Existing Sewer Easements at 300 West Coast Highway, 303 Kings Road, 100 Kings Place and 104 Kings Place September 25, 2012 Page 2 With the new alignment of the City sewer towards Dover Drive, the 100 Kings Place and 104 Kings Place properties are able to connect their sanitary sewer laterals directly to the new line. This action also allows the City to abandon the existing 10 -foot wide sewer easement on the hillside and the 5 -foot wide easement which crosses the development site. The Mariner's Pointe project site is made up of 6 lots which will eventually be merged into one (300 West Coast Highway). The existing sewer easements to be vacated are legally described in Exhibit "A" and shown in Exhibit "B" of the attached Resolution. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Staff recommends the City Council find 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. NOTICING: The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of the meeting at which the City Council considers the item). Additionally, Public Hearing Notices were posted along the proposed vacation site, on the City's bulletin boards and published in the Daily Pilot on September 6, 2012. Submitted by: David A.
