RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Refund cash deposit in connection with Encroachment Permit No. PS15-00860 in the amount of
$18,550.82 to 334 Costa Mesa Partners, LLC, 20201 SW Birch Street, Newport Beach, CA
92660.
BACKGROUND:
The Engineering Division issued Encroachment Permit No. PS15-00860 to Mike Kilbride, LTD
(Contractor) for parkway and street improvements at 334 E. 16th Street. The Encroachment
Permit allowed for the construction of two drive approaches, curb & gutter, sidewalk, utility
connections and resurfacing of the street. The cash deposit in the amount of $18,550.82 was
received and accepted by the Public Services Department as a guarantee for the construction of
parkway and street improvements.
ANALYSIS:
All Conditions of Approval for the project and Encroachment Permit have been met, and the work
has been completed and accepted by the Public Services Department.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:
The alternative to this Council action would be to retain the cash deposit. The Costa Mesa
Municipal Code Section 15-32(b) states, "The condition of said bond (or cash deposit) shall be
that the applicant will perform the work authorized by any permit issued pursuant to this chapter
in a good and workmanlike manner and to the satisfaction of the City Engineer." These conditions
have been met; therefore, retention of the cash deposit would be in violation of the Municipal
Code.
FISCAL REVIEW:
There is no fiscal impact to the City relative to this item.
LEGAL REVIEW:
There is no legal review required relative to this item.
CONCLUSION:
All of the required conditions of the Encroachment Permit have been completed by the contractor.
Therefore, staff recommends that the cash deposit in the amount of $18,550.82 be released and
refunded to 334 Costa Mesa Partners, LLC (Developer).
