DISCUSSION The City is proposing to construct a new sewer lift station at the end of San Lorenzo Avenue, just east of Bristol Street, as shown in Exhibit 1. To accommodate the construction of the lift station, acquisition of 292 square feet of property located at 2909 S. Bristol is required. The public interest and necessity requires the proposed acquisition. A good faith offer was made to the property owner on February 5, 2013, in an amount of $16,100 for the purchase of the property. Negotiations continue with the property owner, however in order to meet the project schedule, it is necessary to commence eminent domain proceedings. Staff is requesting adoption of this resolution of necessity and initiation of condemnation proceedings. The sewer lift station will replace an existing lift station located beneath Bristol Street approximately 700 feet to the west of the proposed lift station. The new lift station will include updated equipment and additional pumps to reduce the chance of sewer spills. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been determined to be adequately evaluated in previously prepared Environmental Impact Report No. 2011-04. 75A-1 Resolution Authorizing Condemnation of a Portion of Real Property for San Lorenzo Sewer Lift Station April 1, 2013 Page 2 FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

Whether the public interest or necessity requires the project, B. Whether the project is planned or located in a manner which is most compatible with the greatest public good and the least private injury; C. Whether the property proposed to be acquired is necessary for the project; D. Whether the offer required by Government Code section 7267.2(a), together with the accompanying statement and summary of the basis for the amount established as just compensation, was actually made and whether said offer and statement/summary contained all of the factual information required by Government Code section 7267.2(a); E.

Whether the City has statutory authority to acquire the property by eminent domain. Section 2. The City Council has, as a result of its consideration and the evidence presented at the hearings on this matter, and in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the State CEQA Guidelines, determined that the proposed project has been adequately evaluated in the previously prepared Environmental Impact Repo rt/EnvironmentaI Impact Statement EIR No. 2011-04 and all subsequent addenda.
