8D. Authorization of professional services agreements with Nature Collective and GHD, Inc. associated with the Cardiff State Beach Living Shoreline Project (CP16A), using California State Coastal Conservancy (SCC) grant funds, in the amount of $1,060,000, to support continued maintenance, monitoring, and permitting efforts for the project over the next five years. Environmental Considerations: The action being considered by the City Council is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because it is not a "project" as per Section 15378(b)(5). The action authorizes staff to implement an organizational or administrative activity of government that by itself will not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment. Contact Person: Coastal Zone Program Administrator Mierau Recommended Action: Authorize the City Manager, or designee, in consultation with the City Attorney, to execute sole source professional services agreements with Nature Collective and GHD, Inc. for continued maintenance, monitoring, and permitting efforts associated with the Cardiff State Beach Living Shoreline Project, in substantial form. 2025-08-20 Item 08D Cardiff State Beach Living Shoreline
