REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Jason Simpson, City Manager
Prepared by: Remon Habib, City Engineer
Date: December 10, 2024
Subject: Streambed Alteration Agreement for Murrieta Creek Multi-use Trail Project Recommendation
Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute a Streambed Alteration Agreement with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) for the Murrieta Creek Multi-Use Trail project in such final form as approved by the City Attorney.

Background
The Murrieta Creek Multi-Use Trail is a multi-jurisdiction, active transportation trail that is identified in the City’s General Plan and Eastlake Specific Plan adopted in 2017. The proposed Murrieta Creek Multi-Use Trail extends Skylark Drive and the Lake Levee Trail.

The City is currently in final design for the Murrieta Creek Multi-Use Trail project. The City’s consultant, Chen Ryan Associates, is providing services to complete the final design, permitting, and acquisition of right-of-way and mitigation credits for the project.

Discussion
Streambed Alteration Agreement (SAA) would be entered between the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the City of Lake Elsinore. CDFW has determined the Murrieta Creek Multi-Use Trail project could substantially adversely affect existing fish or wildlife resources.

Necessary mitigation measures to protect the impacted resources are identified in the SAA, and the City must satisfy each measure identified in the SAA to mitigate the impacts of the Murrieta Creek Multi-Use project. Measures included are administrative, general wildlife protection and prevention, compensatory, and reporting.

Execution of the SAA would allow for the project to request ATP grant funding allocation for the construction phase of the project.

CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE

MURRIETA CREEK MULTI-USE TRAIL PROJECT
This Streambed Alteration Agreement (Agreement) is entered into between the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the City of Lake Elsinore (Permittee) or as represented by Remon Habib.

RECITALS
WHEREAS, pursuant to Fish and Game Code section 1602, Permittee notified CDFW on September 19, 2023 that Permittee intends to complete the project described herein.

WHEREAS, pursuant to Fish and Game Code section 1603, CDFW has determined that the project could substantially adversely affect existing fish or wildlife resources and has included measures in the Agreement necessary to protect those resources.

WHEREAS, Permittee has reviewed the Agreement and accepts its terms and conditions, including the measures to protect fish and wildlife resources.

NOW THEREFORE, Permittee agrees to complete the project in accordance with the Agreement.

PROJECT LOCATION
The Murrieta Creek Multi-Use Trail Project (Project) is located northeast of Grand Avenue and northeast of Corydon Road, in the City of Lake Elsinore, County of Riverside, State of California; Latitude 33.630132° N, Longitude -117.315142 ° W; Township 6 South, Range 4 West, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) map Lake Elsinore (Exhibit 1). The Project is located within Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 371-100-020, 371- 100-003, 370-120-001, and 370-120-063.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Project is limited to construction of a multi-use trail that will be a 10-foot-wide paved trail within the Lake Elsinore Back Basin. Split rail fencing will be mounted on either side of the trail with a 2-foot-wide decomposed granite (DG) or native landscape recovery EPIMS-RIV-43632-R6

zone between the fence and the asphalt path, for a total permanent impact width of 20 feet.

The proposed Project will also include a single Arizona crossing and a span bridge and the replacement and extension of a pipe culvert to cross four existing ephemeral drainage features that intercept the trail. The Arizona crossing will be located at the northernmost corner of Como Street and Stoneman Street and will consist of a concrete apron and rock splash pad within the planned permanent impact area to allow water to pass while establishing a defined trail and eliminating long-term maintenance needs.

The approximately 55 feet long span bridge will be located at the terminus of Ontario Way and will be constructed either as cast-in-place concrete abutments spanned by hollow-core precast concrete planks, or an alternate clear span design such as open bottom arch culverts. It will completely span the ephemeral feature, with no footings or other material placed within the feature. It is anticipated that the crossings will require the use of a backhoe and/or mini excavator for the cast-in-place concrete abutments, and an articulated lift to hoist the hollow-core precast concrete planks into position.

Impacts from the installation of the crossings will be confined to the permanent and temporary impact footprint. The existing culvert located at the eastern end of the trail will be replaced and extended to accommodate the trail width.

The Project will require a total of approximately 2,765 cubic yards of asphalt (consisting of 655 cubic yards (cy) of hot mix asphalt,1,850 cy of Class II aggregate base, and 260 cy of DG) imported to the site. Earthwork would include approximately 9,405 cy of cut and 6,375 cy of fill, resulting in export of 8,363cy and import of 5,335 cy. Cut and fill slopes would be a maximum 2:1 gradient.

Temporary steel plate bridges and/or other temporary clear span means required of the contractor would be implemented during construction should any of the avoided features need to be temporarily crossed during construction. Temporary construction access will be provided via existing paved roadways, the Levee Trail, and within the temporary impact area. Temporary construction staging areas will also be located onsite within the mapped temporary impact area or off-site within the existing disturbed and developed areas.

PROJECT IMPACTS
Existing fish or wildlife resources the project could substantially adversely affect include:

Take of any California Endangered Species Act (CESA)-listed species is prohibited except as authorized by state law (Fish and Game Code, §§ 2080, 2085 & 2800). Consequently, if a Project, including Project construction or any Project-related activity during the life of the Project, results in take of CESA-listed species, CDFW recommends that the Project proponent seek appropriate authorization prior to Project implementation.

Additionally, the issuance of a draft or final Agreement does not infer that the Project is consistent with the MSHCP or that the Project has demonstrated that it is a Biologically Equivalent or Superior Preservation Alternative. If modifications to the Project are necessary for MSHCP compliance, then a request for an amendment to this Agreement will be required.

1.6 Take of Nesting Birds. Fish and Game Code section 3503 makes it unlawful to take, possess, or needlessly destroy the nest or eggs of any bird, except as otherwise provided by Fish and Game Code or any regulation made pursuant thereto. Fish and Game Code section 3503.5 makes it unlawful to take, possess, or destroy any birds in the orders Falconiformes or Strigiformes (birds-of-prey) to take, possess, or destroy the nest or eggs of any such bird except as otherwise EPIMS-RIV-43632-R6
Streambed Alteration Agreement

Page 5 of 55 ends

Ver. EPIMS 03/08/2022
provided by Fish and Game Code or any regulation adopted pursuant thereto. Fish and Game Code Section 3513 makes it unlawful to take or possess any migratory nongame bird except as provided by the rules and regulations adopted by the Secretary of the Interior under provisions of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act 1918, as amended (16 U.S.C. § 703 et seq.). The issuance of this Agreement does not in any way exempt or excuse compliance with these statutes.

1.7 Additional Project Impacts. Permittee shall submit to CDFW a request to amend this Agreement if any additional impacts to Fish and Game Code section 1602 resources, or additional operations and maintenance activities not identified in this Agreement are anticipated. No additional impacts to Fish and Game Code section 1602 resources are authorized unless the impacts and/or activities are expressly authorized by CDFW by amendment to this Agreement.

1.8 Notify CDFW Prior to Work. Permittee shall notify CDFW by email at least five (5) working days prior to initiation of Project activities. See contact information below.

1.9 Reporting of Violations. Permittee shall report any violations of the Agreement, whether committed by Permittee or any person acting on behalf of Permittee, to the CDFW contact identified below within 48 hours of the violation occurring.

1.10 Dead or Injured Species. Permittee shall report any dead or injured CESA- or ESAlisted threatened, endangered, or fully protected species, or species of special concern found along roads or in Project areas to CDFW within 24 hours via email according to contact information below. The Permittee shall report whether the dead or injured species was found on site, or caused due to Project activities, the location, cause of death, species found, and any other relevant information.

1.11 Compliance with other Agencies. The Agreement does not relieve the Permittee of responsibilities for compliance with applicable federal, state, or local laws, ordinances or grant conditions.

1.12 Work According to Plans. Final stamped engineered design plans shall be submitted to CDFW a minimum of 30 days prior to start of Project activities, for review by CDFW prior to Project start. The final plans shall be based on the Project design plans submitted to CDFW in the notification package. If the submitted Project plans differ substantially from the Project description, Permittee shall provide CDFW a detailed, written description of the changes made. CDFW may require an amendment to this Agreement or submission of a new notification prior to starting the Project if the Project designs have changed from those submitted in the Notification Package.

Nesting Bird Protection

2.11. Nesting Birds. It is the Permittee’s responsibility to avoid impacts to nesting birds.

Permittee shall ensure that impacts to nesting birds are avoided through the implementation of pre-construction surveys, ongoing monitoring, and if necessary, establishment of minimization measures.

2.11.1. Designated Biologist(s). The Permittee shall designate a biologist (Designated Biologist) with the following experience: identifying local and migratory bird species; conducting bird surveys using appropriate survey methodology (e.g., Ralph et al. 19931) and United States Fish and Wildlife Service [USFWS] and/or CDFW-accepted species-specific survey protocols, available here: https://wildlife.ca.gov/conservation/survey-protocols; nesting surveying techniques, recognizing breeding and nesting behaviors, locating nests and breeding territories, and identifying nesting stages and nest success (e.g., Martin and Geupel 19932); determining/establishing appropriate avoidance and minimization measures; and monitoring the efficacy of implemented avoidance and minimization measures.

2.11.2. Pre-construction Surveys. Surveys shall be conducted by the Designated Biologist at the appropriate time of day/night, during appropriate weather conditions, within three (3) days prior to the initiation of Project activities addressed by this Agreement. Surveys shall encompass all suitable areas including trees, shrubs, bare ground, burrows, cavities, and structures. Survey duration shall take into consideration the size of area subject to this Agreement; density, and complexity of the habitat; number of survey participants; survey techniques employed; and shall be sufficient to ensure the data collected is complete and accurate. Pre-construction surveys shall focus on both direct and indirect evidence of nesting, including 1 Ralph, C.J., G.R. Geupel, P. Pyle, T.E. Martin, and D.F. DeSanta. 1993.

nest locations and nesting behavior (e.g., copulation, carrying of food or nest materials, nest building, removal of fecal sacks, flushing suddenly from atypically close range, agitation, aggressive interactions, feigning injury or distraction displays, or other behaviors). If a nest is suspected, but not confirmed, the Designated Biologist shall establish a disturbance-free buffer until additional surveys can be completed, or until the location can be inferred based on observations. The Designated Biologist shall not risk failure of the nest to determine the exact location or status and will make every effort to limit the nest to potential predation as a result of the survey/monitoring efforts (e.g., limit number of surveyors, limit time spent at/near the nest, scan the site for potential nest predators before approaching, immediately depart nest area if indicators of stress or agitation are displayed). If a nest is observed, but thought to be inactive, the Designated Biologist shall monitor the nest for one hour (four hours for raptors during the non-breeding season) prior to approaching the nest to determine status. The Designated Biologist shall use their best professional judgement regarding the monitoring period and whether approaching the nest is appropriate. Results of pre-construction surveys shall be provided to CDFW at least one business day prior to commencement of Project activities, as identified in Measure 4.4. Results of ongoing monitoring surveys shall be provided to CDFW upon request.

2.11.3. Buffers. When an active nest is confirmed, the Designated Biologist shall immediately establish a conservative buffer surrounding the nest based on their best professional judgement and experience. The buffer shall be delineated to ensure that its location is known by all persons working within the vicinity but shall not be marked in such a manner that it attracts predators. Once the buffer is established, the Designated Biologist shall document baseline behavior, stage of reproduction, and existing site conditions, including vertical and horizontal distances from proposed work areas, visual or acoustic barriers, and existing level of disturbance. The Designated Biologist shall monitor the nest at the onset of Project activities addressed by this Agreement, and at the onset of any changes in Project activities (e.g., increase in number or type of equipment, change in equipment usage, etc.) to determine the efficacy of the buffer. If the Designated Biologist determines that Project activities may be causing an adverse reaction, the Designated Biologist shall adjust the buffer accordingly.

2.11.4. Ongoing Monitoring. The Designated Biologist shall be onsite daily to monitor all existing nests, the efficacy of established buffers, and to document any new nesting occurrences. The Designated Biologist shall document the status of all existing nests, including the stage of reproduction and the expected fledge date. If a nest is suspected to have been abandoned or failed, the Designated Biologist shall monitor the nest for a minimum of one hour (four hours for raptors), uninterrupted, during favorable EPIMS-RIV-43632-R6
Streambed Alteration Agreement

Page 11 of 55 ends

Ver. EPIMS 03/08/2022
field conditions. If no activity is observed during that time, the Designated Biologist may approach the nest to assess the status.

2.11.5. Securing Site. The Permittee, under the direction of the Designated Biologist, may also take steps to discourage nesting on the Project site, including moving equipment and materials daily, covering material with tarps or fabric, and securing all open pipes and construction materials. The Designated Biologist shall ensure that none of the deterrent materials pose an entanglement risk to birds or other species. The Designated Biologist shall include a detailed account of any steps taken to discourage nesting within the Project site in the summary reports.

2.11.6. Reporting. The Designated Biologist shall be responsible for providing summary reports, as specified in Measure 4.5, where relevant, to CDFW no less than once weekly regarding the nesting species identified onsite, discovery of any of new nests, the status/outcome of any previously identified nest, buffer distances established for each nest, and any adjustments made to established buffers. If Project activities result in the abandonment of, or damage to a nest, Permittee shall notify CDFW within 24 hours of detection.

Least Bell’s Vireo

2.12. Least Bell’s Vireo. The Permittee shall not conduct ANY Project activities, including ground disturbance or vegetation removal activities, within 1,000 linear feet of least Bell’s vireo nesting habitat if nesting birds are present. Focused surveys following USFWS protocol for least Bell’s vireo shall be conducted to establish presence of nesting birds. The physical extent of the survey area shall include all areas within 500 feet of Project disturbance. Survey results shall be submitted in writing to CDFW for review. Nesting status will be determined by a Designated Biologist (see Measure 2.13.1 above) with expertise with the species in question, utilizing USFWS survey protocols and CDFW review of the nest monitoring data.

2.12.1.Survey protocol for least Bell’s vireo can be found at:
https://www.fws.gov/media/survey-guidelines-least-bells-vireo.

2.12.2.If least Bell’s vireo, or other listed bird species, are present within 500 feet of Project disturbance, the following avoidance measures shall be implemented:

2.12.2.1. No ground disturbance or vegetation removal activities shall take place until the young have fledged, or the nest has been determined to have failed.

2.12.2.2. If construction must take place within the buffer, a qualified acoustician shall monitor noise as construction approaches the edge EPIMS-RIV-43632-R6
Streambed Alteration Agreement

Ver. EPIMS 03/08/2022
of the occupied vireo habitat as directed by the permitted biologist.

If the noise meets or exceeds the 60 dB(A) Leq threshold, or if the biologist determines that construction activities are disturbing nesting activities, the biologist shall have the authority to halt construction and shall consult with CDFW to devise methods to reduce the noise and/or disturbance. This may include methods such as, but not limited to, turning off vehicle engines and other equipment whenever possible to reduce noise, installing a protective noise barrier between the nesting birds and the activities, and working in other areas until the young have fledged. The CDFWapproved biologist shall monitor the nest daily until activities are no longer within 500 feet of the nest, or the fledglings become independent of their nest, or the nest has failed.

2.12.3.If least Bell’s Vireo is present during Project activities, Permittee shall be responsible for addressing all potential impacts by obtaining the appropriate CESA authorization prior to the initiation of Project activities. If pile driving activities within the Lake Elsinore Back Basin or Murrieta Creek are required, the activities shall occur outside of the breeding season to the greatest extent feasible. If pile driving activities occur during nesting season, the following measures shall be implemented:

2.12.3.1. The Permittee shall sponsor placement of two cowbird traps for each nesting season that pile driving activities occur. This measure is meant to improve the productivity of least Bell’s vireo during nesting season, to compensate for the potential temporary loss in reproductive output for any pile driving-related noise effects during nesting season.

2.12.3.2. Throughout the duration that pile driving activities occur during the least Bell’s vireo nesting season, a Biological Monitor shall conduct daily site visits to document how pile driving activities affect nesting least Bell’s vireo. The purpose of this monitoring is to gather information related to least Bell’s vireo activity during pile driving activities to inform future decisions regarding noise minimization.

Coordination with the CDFW and USFWS will be conducted prior to monitoring to discuss the information to be collected.

Burrowing Owl Protection

2.13. Burrowing Owl. Permittee shall ensure that impacts to burrowing owls are avoided through the implementation of pre-construction surveys, ongoing monitoring, and if necessary, establishment of minimization and mitigation measures.

2.13.1.Burrowing Owl Habitat Assessment. Prior to the initiation of Project activities, Permittee shall conduct a burrowing owl habitat assessment EPIMS-RIV-43632-R6
Streambed Alteration Agreement

Page 13 of 55 ends

Ver. EPIMS 03/08/2022
consistent with the 2006 Burrowing Owl Survey Instructions3. A habitat assessment shall be conducted by Designated Biologist(s) knowledgeable of burrowing owl sign, habitat, ecology, and field identification of the species, during appropriate weather conditions, at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the initiation of Project activities. The assessment shall consist of walking the Project site to identify the presence of burrowing owl habitat 4. If habitat is found on the Project site, then walk a 150-meter (approximately 500 feet) buffer zone around the Project boundary, if permission to access the buffer area has been obtained. If access permission cannot be obtained, visually inspect the adjacent habitat areas with binoculars or spotting scopes. Survey duration shall take into consideration the size of the property; density, and complexity of the habitat; number of survey participants; survey techniques employed; and shall be sufficient to ensure the data collected is complete and accurate. A report summarizing the results of the habitat assessment shall be submitted to CDFW within 10 days of survey completion, as described in Measure 4.2.

2.13.2.Focused Survey for Burrowing Owls. If the burrowing owl habitat assessment identifies burrowing owl habitat onsite, Permittee shall have a qualified Designated biologist, pre-approved by CDFW, perform a survey for burrowing owls between 30 and 60 days prior to any Project impacts.

If the Project site is in within the Western Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP) Burrowing Owl Survey Area, the following is required. A minimum of one site visit must occur, but additional visits may be warranted depending on the results of the first site visit. Surveys conducted during the breeding season March 1 - August 31 are required to describe if, when, and how the site is used by burrowing owls. All surveys shall be conducted as described in Parts A and B below.

Surveys shall be conducted during weather that is conducive to observing owls outside their burrows and detecting burrowing owl sign. Surveys will not be accepted if they are conducted during rain, high winds (> 20 mph), dense fog, or temperatures over 90 °F. Part B surveys shall be conducted 3 Western Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (RCA). 2006. Burrowing Owl Survey Instructions for the Western Riverside Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan Area.

Available for download at: https://www.wrcrca.org/species/survey_protocols/burrowing_owl_survey_instructions.pdf 4 Burrowing owls use a variety of natural and modified habitats for nesting and foraging that is typically characterized by low-growing vegetation. Burrowing owl habitat includes but is not limited to, short or sparse vegetation (at least at some time of year), presence of burrows, burrow surrogates or presence of fossorial mammal dens, well-drained soils, and abundant and available prey. Vegetation and features may include native and non-native grassland, interstitial grassland with shrub lands, shrub lands with low density shrub cover, golf courses, drainage ditches, earthen berms, unpaved airfields, pastureland, dairies, fallow fields, and agricultural use areas. Burrowing owls typically use burrows made from fossorial (adapted for burrowing or digging) mammals such as ground squirrels or badgers, and often manmade structures such as earthen berms; cement culverts; cement, asphalt, rock, or wood debris piles; or openings beneath cement or asphalt pavement EPIMS-RIV-43632-R6

in the morning one hour before sunrise to two hours after sunrise or in the early evening two hours before sunset to one hour after sunset. Count and map all burrowing owl sightings, occupied burrows, and burrows with owl sign. Record the location of all owls including numbers of pairs and juveniles and any behavior such as courtship and mating. Map the extent of all suitable habitat. Owl signs may not be detectable if surveys under Part A are conducted within 5 days following rain. Absence of burrowing owl sign cannot be used to confirm absence of the species if the focused burrow survey (Part A) is conducted within 5 days of rain; therefore, in this instance, completion of all four focused burrowing owl surveys (Part B) is required.

Part A: Focused Burrow Surveys
A focused burrow survey that includes natural burrows or suitable manmade structures needs to be conducted as described below.

1. A systematic survey for burrows including burrowing owl sign shall be conducted by walking through suitable habitat over the entire survey area (i.e., the Project site and within 150 meters). Pedestrian survey transects need to be spaced to allow 100% visual coverage of the ground surface. The distance between transect center lines should be no more than 30 meters (approximately 100 ft.) and should be reduced to account for differences in terrain, vegetation density, and ground surface visibility. To efficiently survey Projects larger than 100 acres, it is recommended that two or more qualified surveyors conduct concurrent surveys.

2. The location of all suitable burrowing owl habitat, potential owl burrows, burrowing owl signs, and any owls observed shall be recorded and mapped, including GPS coordinates. If the survey area contains natural or man-made structures that could potentially support burrowing owls, or owls are observed during the burrow surveys, the systematic surveys shall continue as described in Part B. If no potential burrows are detected, no further surveys are required. A written report including photographs of the Project site, location of burrowing owl habitat surveyed, location of transects, and burrow survey methods shall be prepared as described in Measure 2.15.1.

Part B: Focused Burrowing Owl Surveys
Focused Burrowing Owl Surveys shall consist of site visits on four separate days at least one week apart. The first one may be conducted concurrent with the Focused Burrow Survey.

1. Upon arrival at the survey area and prior to initiating the walking surveys, surveyors using binoculars or spotting scopes shall scan all suitable habitat, location of mapped burrows, owl sign, and owls, EPIMS-RIV-43632-R6
Streambed Alteration Agreement

Page 15 of 55 ends

Ver. EPIMS 03/08/2022
including perch locations to ascertain owl presence. This is particularly important if access has not been granted for adjacent areas with suitable habitat.

2. A survey for owls and owl sign shall then be conducted by walking through suitable habitat over the entire Project site and within the adjacent 150 m (approx. 500 feet), if permission to access the buffer area has been obtained. These “pedestrian surveys” should be spaced to allow 100% visual coverage of the ground surface. The distance between transect center lines should be no more than 30 meters (approx. 100 feet.) and should be reduced to account for differences in terrain, vegetation density, and ground surface visibility. To efficiently survey projects larger than 100 acres, it is recommended that two or more qualified surveyors conduct concurrent surveys. It is important to minimize disturbance near occupied burrows during all seasons.

3. If access is not obtained, then the area adjacent to the Project site shall also be surveyed using binoculars or spotting scopes to determine if owls are present in areas adjacent to Project site. This 150-meter buffer zone is included to fully characterize the population. If the site is determined not to be occupied, no further surveys are required except as described below.

2.13.3.Burrowing Owl Pre-Construction Inspection. If burrows or suitable burrowing owl habitat is found onsite, Permittee shall have a qualified biologist, pre-approved by CDFW, inspect all burrows that exhibit typical characteristics of owl activity within three (3) days prior to any ground disturbing or site-preparation activities. Evidence of owl activity may include presence of owls themselves, burrows, and owl signs at burrow entrances such as pellets, whitewash or other “ornamentation,” feathers, prey remains, etc. If owl presence is difficult to determine, Permittee shall monitor the burrows with motion-activated trail cameras for at least 24 hours to evaluate burrow occupancy. If it is evident that the burrows are actively being used, Permittee shall not commence activities until no sign is present that the burrows are being used by adult or juvenile owls or following CDFW approval of a Burrowing Owl Plan as described in Measure 2.15.6. CDFW shall be notified in writing of detection of active burrows within three (3) days.

2.13.4.Burrowing Owl Survey Results. Permittee shall submit the survey methodology and results within ten days of survey completion and at least twenty-one days prior to commencement of Project activities addressed by this Agreement to CDFW Inland Deserts Region at the address below under Contact Information. Results shall discuss the survey methodology, transect width, duration, conditions, and results of the survey. Appropriate maps showing burrow locations shall be included.

EPIMS-RIV-43632-R6
Streambed Alteration Agreement

Page 16 of 55 ends

Ver. EPIMS 03/08/2022
If the report indicates further surveys are not required, then the report should state the reason(s) why further focused burrowing owl surveys are not necessary.

2.13.5.Burrowing Owls Observed During Construction. If burrowing owls are observed within Project Site(s) during Project implementation and construction, Permittee shall notify CDFW immediately in writing at the address below under Contact Information (reference SAA# EPIMS-RIV43632-R6). Further, Permittee shall be responsible for implementing appropriate avoidance and mitigation measures, including burrow avoidance, passive or active relocation, or other appropriate mitigation measures as identified in the Burrowing Owl Plan (Measure 2.15.6).

2.13.6.Burrowing Owl Plan. If burrowing owls are detected on the Project site, the Permittee shall prepare a Burrowing Owl Plan that shall be submitted to CDFW for review and approval at least 30 days prior to initiation of Project activities. If burrowing owls are detected after Project activities have been initiated, a Burrowing Owl Plan shall be submitted to CDFW for review and approval within two weeks of detection and no Project activity shall continue within 300 -1000 feet dependent upon burrowing owl nesting status and location. The Burrowing Owl Plan shall describe proposed avoidance, relocation, monitoring, minimization, and/or mitigation actions.

If the site is within an MSHCP Criteria Area, then at least 90 percent of the area with long-term conservation value shall be included in the MSHCP Conservation Area. If the Project site (including adjacent areas) supports three or more pairs of burrowing owls and supports greater than 35 acres of suitable habitat and is non-contiguous with MSHCP Conservation Area lands, at least 90 percent of the area with long-term conservation value and burrowing owl pairs shall be conserved onsite. The Burrowing Owl Plan shall include the number and location of occupied burrow sites and details on proposed buffers if avoiding the burrowing owls or information on the adjacent or nearby suitable habitat available to owls for relocation.

If no suitable habitat is available nearby for relocation, details regarding the creation and funding of artificial burrows (numbers, location, and type of burrows) and management activities for relocated owls shall also be included in the Burrowing Owl Plan. The Permittee shall implement the Burrowing Owl Plan following CDFW review and approval.

Crotch’s Bumble Bee

2.14. Crotch’s Bumble Bee – Habitat Mapping. No less than 120 days prior to the initiation of activities addressed by this Agreement, Permittee shall complete and submit to CDFW for review and comment a baseline habitat mapping report encompassing Fish and Game Code section 1602 resources (including channel side slopes) identified under this Agreement.

If habitat mapping completed pursuant to Measure 2.16 identifies the presence of plants (e.g., genera Antirrhinum, Phacelia, Clarkia, Cordylanthus, Dendromecon, Eschscholzia, Eriogonum, Hypericum, Lantana, Lupinus, Salvia, Asclepias, Cirsium, Monardella, Keckiella, Acmispon, Euthamia, Ehrendorferia, Vicia, and/or Trichostema) or other suitable habitat, Permittee shall:

2.15.1.Retain an appropriately qualified biologist to prepare a draft survey plan, and conduct surveys for Crotch’s bumble bee. The name and qualifications of the proposed biologist shall be submitted to CDFW for review and comment prior to preparation of the draft survey plan (Measure 2.15.2) or commencement of surveys (Measure 2.15.3). The qualifications shall clearly identify direct experience conducting surveys for and identification of Crotch’s bumble bee.

2.15.2.No Less than 90 days prior to initiation of Project activities addressed by this Agreement, the qualified biologist identified in Measure 2.15.1 shall prepare and submit to CDFW for review and comment a draft survey plan for Crotch’s bumble bee. Survey methodology shall generally follow the U.S.

Fish and Wildlife Service protocol for the Rusty Patched bumble bee (USFWS 2019[2]). Crotch’s bumble bee are typically active between March and September, with peak activity coinciding with peak forage blooming periods. CDFW recommends the completion of multiple surveys, coinciding with the peak blooming periods of the plant genera listed in Measure 2.15.

The survey plan will identify the timing, number, and duration of survey efforts, and procedures to follow should Crotch’s bumble bee be detected within the Project area. The survey plan shall be submitted to CDFW as described in Measure 4.6.

2.15.3.The qualified biologist identified in Measure 2.15.1 shall complete surveys for Crotch’s bumble bee, following the CDFW-reviewed survey plan identified in Measure 2.15.2. Following completion of surveys, and no less than 30 days prior to initiation of Project activities addressed by this Agreement, survey results shall be submitted to CDFW for review and comment as described in Measure 4.7. Survey results will describe the number and timing of surveys, and results of survey efforts. If Crotch’s bumble bee are detected during surveys, Project activities shall NOT occur in any occupied habitat areas and the qualified biologist identified in Measure 2.15.1 shall immediately notify CDFW via the email addresses and phone number listed below under Contact Information.

2.15.4.Permittee shall conduct flight/forage and nest search surveys for the species in the following manner:

Streambed Alteration Agreement

Page 18 of 55 ends

Ver. EPIMS 03/08/2022
between February 1 and October 31.

2.15.4.2. Work sites containing any one or more of the following habitat requisites shall be surveyed: flowering vegetation, any potential preferred nectar plants, small mammal burrows, bunch grasses, thatch, brush piles, old bird nests, dead trees.

2.15.4.3. During the flight survey effort, if bumble bees are observed using any animal burrow entrances, the approved qualified biologist will block/cover any burrow entrance with a sandbag/jar/vial (or similar) of appropriate size and return in 30 minutes to determine if the bees are potential Crotch’s bumble bee and if a potential nest could be present. If bumble bees are observed using bunch grasses, thatched annual grasses, brush piles, old bird nests, dead trees, or hollowed logs, the resource area will be flagged and monitored by the approved qualified biologist for 15 minutes to determine if a potential nest could be present.

2.15.5.To reduce potential impacts to Crotch’s bumble bee to the greatest extent feasible the following measures shall be included in the Crotch’s bumble bee survey plan:

2.15.5.1. If during vegetation removal and ground clearing activities an overwintering or dead Crotch’s bumble bee is observed, activities shall immediately stop and a 100 ft Environmentally Sensitive Area boundary will be erected. A Crotch’s bumble bee approved qualified biologist will be notified and will evaluate the site. CDFW will be immediately notified thereafter for consultation.

Best Management Practices

2.16. Best Management Practices. Permittee shall actively implement BMPs to prevent erosion and the discharge of sediment and pollutants during Project activities. BMPs shall be monitored and repaired if necessary to ensure maximum erosion, sediment, and pollution control. Permittee shall prohibit the use of erosion control materials potentially harmful to fish and wildlife species, such as mono-filament netting (erosion control matting) or similar material. All fiber rolls, straw wattles, and/or hay bales utilized within and adjacent to the Project site shall be free of non- native plant materials. Fiber rolls or erosion control mesh shall be made of loose- weave mesh that is not fused at the intersections of the weave, such as jute, or coconut (coir) fiber, or other products without welded weaves. Non-welded weaves reduce entanglement risks to wildlife by allowing animals to push through the weave, which expands when spread. Permittee shall ensure BMPs do not pose a barrier to wildlife movement and shall be installed to allow for the safe passage of wildlife movement, particularly of less vagile species (such as small mammals and reptiles), out of the Project area. Long, continuous lengths of silt-fencing or other BMP materials EPIMS-RIV-43632-R6
Streambed Alteration Agreement

Page 19 of 55 ends

Ver. EPIMS 03/08/2022
installed without gaps can create a barrier to wildlife movement, trapping wildlife within the Project area. Areas of safe passage can be easily accommodated by leaving small gaps between parallel and overlapping lengths of BMPs.

2.17. If work is performed within the stream channel during the winter storm period, the Permittee shall monitor the five (5) day weather forecast. If it is forecasted for any precipitation, work activities shall involve the securing of the site, so as no materials may enter or be washed into the stream. The site shall be completely secured one (1) day prior to precipitation, unless prior written approval has been provided by CDFW. During period of precipitation, no construction activities may occur; activities involving the preventing of materials from entering the stream or being washed downstream may be conducted.

Equipment and Vehicles

2.18. Equipment and Vehicles. Any equipment or vehicles driven and/or operated within or adjacent to the stream/lake shall be checked and maintained daily, to prevent leaks of materials that if introduced to water could be deleterious to aquatic life.

2.19. Stationary Equipment. Stationary equipment such as motors, pumps, generators, and welders, located within or adjacent to the stream/lake shall be positioned over drip pans. Stationary heavy equipment shall have suitable containment to handle a catastrophic spill/leak. Clean up equipment such as extra booms, absorbent pads, skimmers, shall be on site prior to the start of construction.

2.20. Staging and Storage Areas. Staging/storage areas for equipment and materials shall be located outside of the stream/lake. Any materials placed in seasonally dry portions of a stream or lake that could be washed downstream or could be deleterious to aquatic life shall be removed from the Project site prior to inundation by high flows.

2.21. Equipment Maintenance. No equipment maintenance shall be done within or near any stream, channel, or lake margin where petroleum products or other pollutants from the equipment may enter these areas under any flow.

Trash and Pollution Measures

2.22. Trash Abatement and Refuse Removal. Permittee shall ensure that trash and food items are contained in animal-proof containers and removed at the end of each work day to avoid attracting opportunistic predators such as ravens, coyotes, and feral dogs. Upon completion of Project activities within each Project location, Permittee shall remove and properly dispose of all construction refuse, including, but not limited to, broken equipment parts, wrapping material, cords, cables, wire, rope, strapping, twine, buckets, metal or plastic containers, and boxes.

2.23.1.Spoil sites shall not be located within a lake, streambed, or flowing stream or locations that may be subjected to high storm flows, where spoil may be washed back into a lake, streambed, or flowing stream where it may impact streambed habitat and aquatic or riparian vegetation.

2.23.2.No broken concrete, cement, debris, soil, silt, sand, bark, slash, sawdust, rubbish, or washings thereof, oil or petroleum products, or other organic or earthen material from any construction or associated activity of whatever nature shall be allowed to enter into or be placed where it may be washed by rainfall or runoff into waters of the State. When operations are completed, any excess materials or debris shall be removed from the work area. No rubbish shall be deposited within 150 feet of the high water mark of any lake, streambed, or flowing stream.

2.23.3.No equipment maintenance shall be done within or near any lake, streambed, or flowing stream where petroleum products or other pollutants from the equipment may enter these areas under any flow.

2.26 Turbidity and Siltation. All equipment that enters the streambed or habitat associated with the stream shall be clean and dry. Upon CDFW determination that turbidity/siltation levels resulting from Project-related activities constitute a threat to aquatic life, activities associated with the turbidity/siltation shall be halted until effective CDFW approved control devices are installed, or abatement procedures are initiated.

2.27 Spill Containment. All activities performed in or near a stream shall have absorbent materials designated for spill containment and cleanup activities onsite for use in an accidental spill. If a spill occurs the Permittee shall immediately notify the California Emergency Management Agency at 1-800-852-7550 and immediately initiate the cleanup activities. CDFW shall also be notified within 24 hours by the Permittee and consulted regarding clean-up procedures.

2.28 Disposal of Vegetation. Following any vegetation clearing/removal activities, Permittee shall immediately chip woody debris to pieces 1-inch in diameter or less and dispose of the materials using one of the following methods: a) solarize with clear tarp, b) compost at a commercial facility, c) burn at a biogeneration facility, or d) send to a landfill (can be utilized as Alternative Daily Coverage).

Before CDFW suspends or revokes the Agreement, it shall provide Permittee written notice by certified or registered mail that it intends to suspend or revoke. The notice shall state the reason(s) for the proposed suspension or revocation, provide Permittee an opportunity to correct any deficiency before CDFW suspends or revokes the Agreement, and include instructions to Permittee, if necessary, including but not limited to a directive to immediately cease the specific activity or activities that caused CDFW to issue the notice.

The purpose of the MMRP is to ensure that the impact mitigation measures required by the Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) for the above-referenced Lake or Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS No. RIV-43632-R6 (Agreement) are properly implemented, and thereby to ensure compliance with, section 15097 of the California Code of Regulations and section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code. A table summarizing the mitigation measures required by Fish and Game Code 1600 et seq. is attached. This table is a tool for use in monitoring and reporting on implementation of mitigation measures, but the descriptions in the table do not supersede the mitigation measures set forth in the Agreement, and the omission of a permit requirement from the attached table does not relieve the Permittee of the obligation to ensure the requirement is performed.

DEA) for Main Street Conceptual Design Master Plan
Recommendation
Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement with David Evans and Associates, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $319,100.00 for the preparation of construction documents for the Main Street Improvements project in such final form as approved by the City Attorney, and authorize the City Manager to execute change orders not exceeding a 10% contingency of $31,910.00 for unanticipated costs.

Background
The City entered the original Agreement on February 28, 2023, for $182,233.00 for the Main Street Conceptual Design Master Plan. David Evans and Associates has effectively provided landscape, art, and aesthetic design concepts for the City on several other projects. Staff has contacted David Evans and Associates for proposals to develop conceptual design services for the Main Street Master Plan.

The goal of the Main Street Master Plan Project is the construction of streetscape enhancements throughout this unique one-mile corridor that will create a true “sense of place,” a vibrant, unique corridor that successfully incorporates existing conditions and proposed improvements.

Implementing aesthetic aspects of the Downtown and functional aspects of properties will assist the team in creating a “ complete street,” which encourages a true sense of place, economic development, beautification, and transit facilities and comprehensively provides the safest pedestrian and bicycle use possible.

SUBJECT: PREPARATION OF CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS FOR MAIN STREET

IMPROVEMENTS IN THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE
Dear Rick,
On behalf of David Evans and Associates, Inc. ( DEA), we are pleased to provide you with a proposal for design services for streetscape improvements on Main Street. The limits of work are shown on the attached exhibit.

DEA has prepared conceptual plans for the proposed improvements and those plans will be used as a basis for the design of this project. The base sheets will be prepared using DEA survey data gathered as a part of the conceptual plan preparation, supplemented by City plans for the sidewalk ramp/ conduit project and the Civic Center project.

Please note plans for the gateway structures are part of a separate proposal as that project will be packaged and bid separately from the remainder of the work as previously discussed with you.

DEA proposes the following scope of services and fees:

Task 1 - Field Investigation and Base Sheets
A site visit by two DEA team members ( civil and landscape) along with City staff will be conducted to review the proposed improvements in the field. Constructability issues will also be evaluated during the site visit. The conceptual plan will be compared to field conditions with the intent of making any necessary adjustments to the base sheets prior to beginning preparation of construction documents.

This is a critical step to minimize revisions to the construction document package. Base sheets, using the City' s template, will be developed at 20 scale, and used for the preparation of project plans. Soil samples will be taken for testing during the site visit as required under MWELO.

Deliverables – Base sheets
Meetings – One at site, two virtual

SUBJECT: REVISED PROPOSAL TO PROVIDE CONCEPTUAL DESIGN SERVICES FOR THE MAIN STREET

CORRIDOR MASTER PLAN IN THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE
Dear Rick:

On behalf of David Evans and Associates, Inc. (DEA), we are pleased to provide the City of Lake Elsinore with a comprehensive proposal for the Main Street Corridor Master Plan project. We understand the intent of the project scope of services and our team is extremely well qualified to assist in providing long term vision, theming, and a sense of community” to the project area.

We have been involved in several streetscape and corridor improvement projects that are similar to the Main Street project. These projects require careful collaboration with stakeholders to gain an understanding of the project requirements. Through this collaborative process, the design theme will be developed for the gateways, landscape and hardscape improvements, and the selection of other amenities such as site furnishings. Each of these elements will be designed to provide identity and style to an otherwise ‘ordinary’ roadway. We understand that a new City Hall will be a key feature of the corridor and we look forward to incorporating that building, as well as any other new facilities, into the master plan.

DEA has been involved in providing " visioning" and establishing the theme and character of many Southern California vehicular corridors. Our multi-disciplinary team works closely to ensure that function and form are achieved during the design process; a true benefit of the DEA approach that is a result of effective internal communications between our landscape architects, engineers, planners, and surveyors. The majority of our projects include various aspects of design including facilitation at community workshops, conceptual and final design, bid assistance and construction administration.

During the conceptual planning process, we anticipate requiring the efforts of only one subconsultant, Hunt Design, to assist with gateway development. They have been our design partner for the transportation art for both Railroad Canyon Road as well as the Main Street interchange at the I-15 and are therefore very familiar with the corridor.

We thank you once again for this opportunity and we look forward to sharing our ideas with you and hopefully moving forward as soon as possible.

Sincerely,
David Evans and Associates, Inc.

Main Street Corridor Master Plan Proposal

4141 E. Inland Empire Blvd., 250, Ontario, CA 91764 Tel. 909.481.5750 Fax 909. 481.5757 Project Scope Summary
Our understanding is that the goal of the Main Street Corridor Master Plan Project is the construction of streetscape enhancements throughout this unique one mile corridor that will create a true “ sense of place” – a vibrant, unique corridor that successfully incorporates existing conditions and proposed improvements.

Implementing aesthetic aspects of the Downtown, as well as functional aspects of properties yet to be developed will assist the team in creating a “complete street” – one that encourages a true sense of place, economic development, beautification, facilitates transit, and provides safe pedestrian and bicycle use to the fullest extent possible.

Based on our discussions with you, we understand that the project limit of work lies between the I-15 / Main St. interchange and Lakeshore Drive. The intent is to provide consistent types of street trees in sections of the corridor. This will require removal and replacement of many of the existing trees. In addition, shrubs and groundcover will be removed and replaced as well as the existing irrigation systems. The existing site furnishings and raised planters will be preserved and additional structural amenities will be added within the corridor including two entry gateway arches, street lighting and other features. The conceptual master plan may also address short sections of streets intersecting Main Street.

We have designated five separate areas where improvements will occur:

Area 1 - I-15 to Sumner Avenue
This area includes the removal of Magnolia trees and groundcover in the parkway. Canary Island Palms will be incorporated as the dominant street tree / palm ( approx. 20' BT height). No sidewalk modifications are anticipated.

Area 2 - Sumner Avenue to Heald Avenue
Existing Magnolia trees and groundcover will be removed in the parkway. Although palms will not be included in the area, a new street tree type will be incorporated. Sidewalk modifications between Franklin St. and Heald Avenue will be addressed to create areas for street trees and shrubs. This area will also feature an entry gateway arch.

Area 3 - Heald Avenue to Sulphur Street
Existing Sycamore trees and understory shrubs will be removed and replaced with a new street tree type along with new groundcover and shrubs - all which will be California- friendly, drought tolerant plantings. The new City Hall will be incorporated in the proposed improvements in addition to considering repurposing of the existing outdoor spaces near the current City Hall. Standard galvanized sign posts and other features will be upgraded as needed to match the established aesthetics of this section of the corridor.

Area 4 - Sulphur Street to Library Street
The design team will consider extending components of Area 3 into the east end of this portion of the streetscape. Existing palms will be replaced with new Canary Island Palms. Existing sidewalks will be modified to create new areas for proposed trees and shrubs. Curb and sidewalk will be proposed where needed. Modifications to the park frontage will be considered while maintaining visibility into and out of the park.

Area 5 - Library Street to Lakeshore Drive
Existing palms and shrubs will be removed and replaced with Canary Island Palm and new parkway shrubs.

Curb, sidewalk and a landscaped parkway will be incorporated. The second gateway arch will be incorporated in addition to a landscape median.

Please refer to the attachment: " 2022 08 05 Main Street Streetscape Master Plan - Scope Outline. pdf" in reference to our understanding of the proposed scope of work.

4141 E. Inland Empire Blvd., 250, Ontario, CA 91764 Tel. 909.481.5750 Fax 909. 481.5757 Additional considerations for the master plan include:

Analysis of existing street trees ( health, location, appropriateness, maintenance, water requirements, theming)
Integration / installation of new street furniture where appropriate Major intersection treatments and gateways
Creation of outdoor gathering places
Placement of “Art in Public Places” where desired ( Main St. interchange will have artwork on the abutment walls once the interchange improvements are complete) Analysis and improvements of any ADA deficiencies
Selection of low water use plantings
Consideration of planned and future development
Costs of improvements and phased implementation.

Sidewalk treatment to maximize pedestrian flow and incorporate street furniture and landscaping Pedestrian and vehicular lighting
Implementation of iconic gateways
Scope of Work
Task 1 – Start- Up Meeting and Site Visit - $4,200
DEA project team members will attend an initial start- up meeting with the City staff. This meeting will allow a review of the project field conditions, goals and objectives ( including stakeholder input if desired). We will also begin to discuss key opportunities and constraints for the project, in addition to evaluating issues such as infrastructure, sidewalk conditions, turning movements related to the integration of landscaped medians, community identification / gateways, multi- modal opportunities, integration of the new City Hall building, lighting, signage ( wayfinding), visioning, and project implementation. This meeting will provide a thorough review of the scope of services, objectives, design, maintenance, construction schedule and budget.

Deliverables: One project start- up meeting and site visit.

Task 2 – Project Scheduling - $ 3,900
The DEA project manager will prepare and update the project schedule through the use of Microsoft Project.

Copies of the approved schedule will be provided to key members of the project team.

Deliverables: Project schedules, updated as deemed necessary throughout the duration of the project.

Task 3 – Research and Data Collection - $ 7,400
The DEA team will perform research in preparation of the base mapping for the project. This research will include searching for available record data ( relevant plans, reports, right- of-way maps, aerial photos, and existing improvement plans, etc.) within or adjacent to the project limits, and assembling and reviewing.

Deliverables: Research and data collection as noted above.

Task 4 – Visual Assessment of the Project Area (Informal Field Review) - $ 7,700 DEA will photograph the project area to catalog the existing roadway conditions, front elevations of subject properties, and any additional photos deemed necessary to utilize during the theming and visionary process.

An exhibit will be developed for use during team meetings.

4141 E. Inland Empire Blvd., 250, Ontario, CA 91764 Tel. 909.481.5750 Fax 909. 481.5757 Deliverables: Photo boards will be prepared to depict existing conditions throughout the corridor, in addition to ‘Visioning Examples’ that could be implemented. These image boards will be utilized throughout the Visioning phase of work.

Task 5 – Survey and Preparation of Base Map - $ 88,633 (Survey $ 81,218) Aerial photography will be obtained for those portions of Main Street ( I-15 Freeway to Lakeshore Drive) within the project limits. Aerial mapping will be limited to mapping with the street right of way. 20-scale planimetric aerial mapping with 0.5-foot contours will be obtained.

Limited topographic field surveys will be performed to collect critical tie-in points and in areas obscured in the aerial photography. The topographic field surveys will be used to verify the 20-scale aerial planimetric mapping and include additional survey data for critical tie-in points, surface visible utilities, invert elevations, and other features obscured by vegetation or shadows in the aerial mapping which fall within the limits described in this paragraph. The topographic survey data will be processed and plotted in CAD at a scale comparable to the aerial mapping.

The street centerlines and record rights of way for Main Street and intersecting street will be computed from publicly available record maps. Research will be conducted at the County of Riverside for existing centerline and right- of-way files and/or available cadastral records in support of the centerline and rights- of-way of Main Street and other intersecting rights of way within the project limits. A few centerline monuments will be tied into the horizontal survey control established for this project and utilized in the orientation of the existing record centerline and right of way.

DEA will prepare a 1”=20’ scale ( or similar) base map of the project area utilizing aerial photos and street improvement plans provided by the City.

Deliverables: Survey work products, project area base sheets indicating the Main Street corridor including existing street trees and cross streets.

Task 6 – Draft Recommendations Report - $ 12,900
Using the prepared base mapping, DEA will perform a project walk- thru. The team will identify items such as non-ADA conforming ramps, obstructions, constraints, and identify existing features impacted by the proposed improvements. Physical constraints contained within the parkway will be identified. DEA will use data gathered during the project walk to address proposed improvements throughout the corridor.

Engineering concerns and recommendations will need to be provided by the City.

Deliverables: Draft report indicating constraints and recommendations.

Task 7 – Team Meetings - $ 10,700
DEA will attend three in-person or virtual meetings with the City project team as well as two in-person meetings with the City Council to present our ideas and obtain feedback. At this time, we have not included any community meetings or stakeholder outreach in our scope of work. If the City would like to add those elements in the future, DEA would be happy to provide a supplemental scope of services and associated fees.

Deliverables: Meeting minutes and notes will be generated for record purposes.

Task 8 – Conceptual Plan Development - $ 29,700
Based on staff input, one conceptual plan and one revised plan will be developed. The conceptual design will be graphically portrayed to represent the proposed improvements through " typical" plan views for representative sections of each of the five areas. The conceptual design will include illustrative sketches and DocuSign Envelope ID: B5FD353A- ACBD- 4D65-8C36-08E39F7E762E February 7, 2023

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Jason Simpson, City Manager
Prepared by: Rick De Santiago, Public Works Manager
Date: December 10, 2024
Subject: Resolution Requesting a Grant from the California State Parks Department of Boating and Waterways to Install Three Floating Restrooms Recommendation
Adopt A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE,

CALIFORNIA, IN SUPPORT OF A GRANT FROM THE CALIFORNIA STATE PARKS

DEPARTMENT OF BOATING AND WATERWAYS FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THREE FLOATING RESTROOMS BY THE CITY AT LAKE ELSINORE.

Background
Lake Elsinore is located on the southwest side of the City of Lake Elsinore, with a population of 72,472 in Riverside County. It is Southern California's largest natural freshwater lake, with 3,000 surface acres and over 14 miles of shoreline. The Lake accommodates a variety of recreational activities, including fishing, boating, jet skiing, water skiing, wakeboarding, kayaking, paddle boarding, windsurfing, bird watching, and swimming. Public amenities include beaches with picnic and shade features, easy-access parking, and a four-mile levee for hiking and nature watching.

Although the Lake has numerous private boat launches, the city owns and operates a public boat launch at the Launch Pointe Recreation Destination and RV Resort (Launch Pointe). A population of over 1.5 million is within a 30-minute drive of the Lake, and the city sells approximately 10,000 lake-use passes per year (on average) for motorized vessels.

Floating Restrooms

Page 2 of 2 ends

Discussion
The City of Lake Elsinore, Department of Public Works, requests three (3) floating restrooms from the California State Parks – Division of Boating and Waterways Grant Program for the Lake Elsinore recreational area. The Lake has two existing restrooms, which were installed in 2013 and paid for by the Floating Restroom Grant. Due to their age and condition from cumulative wear and tear, neither restroom is functioning as needed, and both restrooms are minimally functional.

For the past few years, the city has been taking parts from one of the restrooms to extend the life of both restrooms and keep them functional. Both restrooms are heavily vandalized and are past their useful life (11 years old). Due to their age, parts are no longer readily available.

Lake Elsinore is one of Southern California's fastest-growing cities. Between 2000 and 2023, the population grew by 144% (Nielsburg Insights). The average growth rate for the last ten years has been approximately 2.45% yearly. In response to population growth and increased demand for recreational opportunities, the city has invested heavily in developing numerous amenities at the Lake over the past decade. Population growth and the draw of these amenities have strained the existing floating restrooms. As such, the city aims to replace both existing restrooms and add a third to accommodate the growing demand and use of the Lake by residents and local and regional visitors. A grant award from the Department of Boating and Waterways will allow the city three fully functioning floating restrooms at this heavily trafficked and popular Lake.

Fiscal Impact
This grant will be supported by funding from the California State Parks Department of Boating and Waterways.

C. PROJECT PROFILE

1. Describe the Project:

The City of Lake Elsinore (City) Department of Public Works is requesting three (3) floating restrooms from the California State Parks – Division of Boating and Waterways Floating Restrooms Grant Program for the Lake Elsinore recreational area (Lake). The Lake has two existing restrooms which were installed following the award of the 2013 Floating Restroom Grant. Due to their age and condition from cumulative wear and tear, neither restroom is functioning as needed – one is 100% Draft 4
City of Lake Elsinore
DBW Floating Restrooms Grant FY 2024-25
Page | 5
completely defunct, and the other is minimally functional. For the past few years, the City has been taking parts from one of the restrooms to extend the life of the second and keep it functional. Both restrooms are heavily vandalized and are past their useful life (11 years old).

Lake Elsinore is one of Southern California’s fastest growing cities. Between 2000 and 2023, the overall population grew by 144% (Nielsburg Insights). The average growth rate for the last ten years has been approximately 2.45% per year. In response to population growth and increased demand for recreational opportunities, the City has invested heavily in developing numerous amenities at the Lake over the past decade. Population growth and the draw of these amenities have placed a strain on the existing floating restrooms. As such, the City aims to replace both existing restrooms and add a third to accommodate growing demand and use of the Lake by residents as well as local and regional visitors. A grant award from the DBW will allow the City to have three fully functioning floating restrooms at this heavily trafficked and popular Lake.

2. Intended Placement and Location of Floating Restroom Equipment (provide area map and GPS coordinates):

Unit 1: Latitude 33.66449, Longitude -117.36468
Unit 2: Latitude 33.65019, Longitude -117.34476
Unit 3: Latitude 33.67099, Longitude -117.35448
Please see Attachment A for a Project Site Map.

3. How many hours per day will the floating restroom facilities be made available to the public? 10-16 (dawn to dusk across the seasons)

4. How are the floating restroom(s) emptied?
Floating restroom(s) are towed to landside and discharged. a. Floating restroom(s) are towed to landside and discharged to:
• A public wastewater collection system – collected by Rightway, a local vendor for sewage pumping.

If you selected 'Directly to an on-site septic system', please attach documentation of approval from local health official certifying that sufficient sewage disposal capacity is available for the floating restroom facility(ies).

5. Do you plan to charge for floating restroom use? No

6. Partnerships: Partnerships with others such as a local government, private sector, or other community based organizations are encouraged. List all organizations who will be participating with you on the project, their contact person, address, phone number, and their role in the project.
