City Council

8J. Authorization of Amendment No. 2 to the General Services and Beach Maintenance Agreement with Whillock Contracting, Inc. associated with the Opportunistic Beach Fill Program (OBFP)/Sand Compatibility and Opportunistic Use Program (SCOUP), using available budget in Capital Improvement Project No. WB08C, to increase the current service contract agreement amount by $350,000, to support the sediment deposit effort of the Greystar SCOUP permit, which consists of placement of approximately 9,400 cubic yards of compatible sand sediment material at Leucadia State Beach (adjacent to Beacons Beach). Environmental Considerations: An existing Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND; SCH No. 2013111057) is certified and in place as it relates to the existing development permit for the OBFP/SCOUP Program (WB08C). However, the contract amendment 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 the additional funding being requested as part of this is existing contract is not a "project" pursuant to 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 Amendment No. 2 to the General Services and Beach Maintenance Agreement with Whillock Contracting, Inc. to facilitate the installation of the Greystar SCOUP sediment placement at Leucadia State Beach, in substantial form with proposed scope and cost. 2026-01-21 Item 08J Whillock Contract Amendment
