6.A. - Page 2 of 27 the development continues to be responsible for the maintenance obligations. The summary vacation and easement dedication is required to adjust the existing easement to be located over the new path location to continue to allow for public access to the pedestrian and bicycle path. ANALYSIS The Landscape Maintenance Agreement identifies the City owned easements within the subject property wherein all improvements are to be maintained. In order to comply with the Municipal Regional Permit, the City must verify that all stormwater treatment devices to be installed within the City are adequately maintained. While maintenance is the responsibility of the property owner, the City must complete inspections of every stormwater treatment device in the City at least once every five years in order to verify that proper maintenance is occurring. The Stormwater Treatment Measures Maintenance Agreement describes the maintenance and reporting responsibilities of the property owner, and allows City staff to access the property in order to inspect the treatment measures. The City's interest in a bicycle and pedestrian easement is as shown on the Subdivision Map "Parcel Map No. 2011-02" recorded in Book 79 of Parcel Maps, at Pages 90-92. This was the map that created the development parcel, and the easement coincided with an unpaved path that existed on the parcel. In order to relocate the path, the City will need to vacate its interest in the existing easement and accept a dedication for the new easement. The Streets and Highway Code Section 8330 authorizes the vacation of public services easements by a resolution of City Council. Summary vacation is permitted here under Section 8333 because of the following: the easement has been superseded by relocation, or determined to be excess by the easement holder, and there are no other public facilities located within the easement. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact to the City as a result of this action. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW This activity is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as defined in CEQA Guidelines, section 15304 (Minor Alterations to Land), because the landscaping and stormwater improvements and easement relocation involve limited changes to the approved plans to accommodate a pump station project. On June 3, 2014, the Planning Commission determined that the hotel project was consistent with the Marina Shores Village Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Addendum No. 1 to the EIR. PUBLIC NOTICE Public Notification was achieved by posting the agenda, with the agenda items being listed, at least 72 hours prior to the meeting.
