RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the conveyance of waterline and access easements to Golden State Water Company on property owned by Contra Costa County Fire Protection District in connection with the construction of the New Fire Station 86 Project, as recommended by the Fire Chief, Bay Point area pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 13861(b) and Government Code section 25526.6. Project No.: 7025-WH706A (CP#18-38)


DETERMINE that the conveyance of said easements are in the public interest and will not substantially conflict or interfere with the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District’s (District) use of the property.

RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)

AUTHORIZE the Fire Chief or designee, 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 s Easement to be delivered to the grantee.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The costs of granting this easement and associated documents are included in the overall cost of construction.

BACKGROUND:

The District owns the property located on Goble Drive in Bay Point and also known as APN 091-030-0123 (Property). On October 13, 2020, this Board approved the design of a new Fire Station 86 and awarded the construction contract. In order to bring water service to the Property, the District needs to convey permanent easements to Golden State Water Company, a regulated public utility. Golden State Water Company will use the easement areas to install their waterline and backflow devices and access their facilities for future maintenance. To ensure that the project can proceed as planned, District staff recommend approving the conveyance of the easements.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Golden State Water Company would not have the necessary land rights to install their facilities and bring water service to the new Fire Station 86.
