RECOMMENDATION(S):

As the governing body of the Contra Costa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (District), APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the conveyance of a pipeline easement to SFPP, L.P., located near Grayson Creek adjacent to Highway 4 (SR-4) and Interstate 680 (I-680) Interchange in Martinez identified in Exhibit “A” of the Grant of Easement (State Parcel No. 63155-2), pursuant to Section 31 of the Contra Costa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District Act and Government Code Section 25526.6 (Project No.7520-6B8721).


DETERMINE that the conveyance of the pipeline easement is in the public interest and that the interest in the land conveyed will not substantially conflict or interfere with the the Districts use of the property.

RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)

AUTHORIZE the Chair, Board of Supervisors, to execute the Grant of Easement on behalf of the District.

DIRECT the Real Estate Division of the Public Works Department to cause said Grant of Easement to be delivered to the grantees for acceptance and recording in the Office of the County Clerk-Recorder.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

The District acquired the real property in the 1960’s and 1970’s for Flood Control purposes. As part of the improvements for the SR-4/I-680 Widening Project Phase 3 the State requires said pipeline easement to be conveyed to SFPP, L.P. due to the relocation of the existing pipeline as part of the State’s project. An Environmental Impact Report dated December 17, 2014, was completed by the State. The State has the power of Eminent Domain to acquire the necessary rights from the District. The easement document provides language so as to not substantially conflict or interfere with the Districts use of the property.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Project will not have sufficient land rights to allow construction in accordance with the approved plans and specifications.
