BACKGROUND The City Council awarded the bid for this project at their regular meeting on March 10, 2014. Construction is anticipated to start in May. This project includes the construction of stormwater facilities, i.e., catch basins, pipe, and ponds to convey street surface water and provide water treatment prior to entering public waters. The City is therefore subject to the permit requirements of the RCWD and this agreement must be implemented to finalize the permit for this project. The agreement requires the City to perform inspections and maintenance on the stormwater facilities. This includes annual inspections of lines and structures. Ponds are required to be inspected once annually in the first two years following construction and every five years thereafter. These requirements are generally consistent with the parameters the city already operates under with the exception of the line and structure inspections which we perform on a five year basis. RECOMMENDATION Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 14-36. ATTACHMENTS 1. Resolution No. 14-36 2. RCWD Stormwater Maintenance Agreement
