Encinitas
City Council
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.
