SUMMARY: The
District provided detailed maps in its LAFCO application of the 58 parcels in
Yankee Point and Hidden Hills proposed to be annexed as part of the potential acquisition
of the California American Water Company (Cal-Am) Monterey Water System. However, detailed legal descriptions for both
annexations must be prepared in conformance with the State Board of
Equalization Mapping Requirements dated August 1, 2005. For that purpose, a licensed surveyor is
required. Psomas was recommended for
this task by our outsourced GIS professional and the exchange of GIS files and
information has been facilitated by that prior relationship. The District has used Psomas for other
purposes such as construction management and has had a very good relationship
with the firm.
Psomas’ proposal and budget are attached in Exhibit 7-A. The State Board of Equalization
mapping requirements are included in that Exhibit.
RECOMMENDATION: The Administrative Committee should recommend that the Board authorize expenditure of funds not to exceed $28,000 for survey services related to the acquisition of the Monterey Water System (Measure J).
IMPACT TO DISTRICT RESOURCES: Such
Measure J related expenses have not been budgeted and will come from District
reserves.
