Teri,
Is Council aware that they are holding a meeting on the evening of Yorn Kippur? I will not be able to attend. I
would like it to be known that this should not happen as there are a number of residents of the Jewish faith in
RPV who cannot attend, listen or comment due to this being the holiest day of their faith.
I did not see how to provide written comments,
Please let Council be aware that I think it is unwise to change any of the conditions connected to the preserve
parking at Del Cerro at this time. At the very least, the parking policy should not be changed for Fri -Sun and
holidays.
Thank you

Why would City Council want to modify the parking on Crenshaw.
The old system was dangerous and inconvenient for us living in
Del Cerro.
• The current parking system is working effectively. Traffic can safely pass through the
Crenshaw corridor .
•
• We support the staff's recommendations that they take the next 6 months to survey
visitors to better understand visitors' challenges with the current ParkMobile system
and to find ways to mitigate them without returning the area to the unsafe traffic
conditions that we experienced prior to the parking system implementation. We stand
ready to continue working collaboratively with Staff to evaluate the feasibility and
effectiveness of various options.
o Residents feel it is imperative to install the Burma Rd. and Rattlesnake Trail gates before
implementing any modification to the parking reservation system that will increase visitor
traffic.
o In addition, adequate enforcement personnel must be hired and trained before any
modification to the parking system that will increase visitor traffic is implemented.

City Council:
I wanted to formally register my concerns prior to your October 4 meeting to discuss furthering the parking reservation
system. As a PV native and Del Cerro resident, I wish to commend the city on its current reservation system. It has been
working marvelously and addresses all of our previous concerns adequately. I would only suggest two alterations: A
functioning gate at the head of the Burma Rd. trail is imperative, and increased patrol and monitoring by enforcement
personnel would be appreciated. Most importantly though, the current system of reservations has functioned
exceptionally well, and it would be a real mistake to alter it.
Thank you for all your fine work, and for the implementation of this system.

Attention: Council Members

October l't, 2022
Dear City Council Members,
John & Ingrid Hextall
7 Amber Sky Drive,
Rancho Palos Verdes,
CA 90275
RE: OCT 4th CITY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA ITEM #2 {ParkMobile Parking System)
We refer to the above-mentioned agenda item #2 and wish to emphasize and support the
recommendations made by the Del Cerro residents via our HOA which we believe are more than
reasonable and entirely appropriate in these circumstances.
As residents of Del Cerro and having our home adjacent to the Burma Trail head we are naturally
concerned at the focus of RPV Council Members on changing the parking system without any regard for
prioritizing the re-installation of the Burma Road Gate before changing the parking system. The Burma
Rd., gate was approved in July 2018, installed in November 2020 but has been inoperable since the May
2021. It is incredulous that its replacement/repairs have not been prioritized and completed after a
period of 17 months.
The need for this Gates was established long before traffic and parking conditions became untenable in
the early days of the pandemic. They are intended to keep visitors from roaming the preserve at night
after the preserve is closed and entering before the preserve opening time of 7 am, causing concerns
about the safety of residents and loss of peace and quiet during night-time and early-morning hours.
Thus, in the absence of the Burma Rd Trailhead Gate, we continue to encounter excessive noise from
walkers who clearly ignore the opening times and walk /jog in darkness from as early as 5 am.
They play loud music, shout to their colleagues and have complete disregard for neighbors adjoining the
Burma Trail. Moreover, in the evening, outside of the prohibited hours, several hikers and groups
consistently enter the Burma Trailhead as there is nothing to prevent access after dusk and they also
smoke cannabis, drink alcohol and cause undue noise and potential danger to the environment. The
increasing issues with homelessness and the risks of fire are enormous concerns for the Del Cerro
residents.
With regards to agenda item #2 (ParkMobile Parking System), we believe the current parking system is
working effectively. Traffic can safely pass through the Crenshaw corridor. We also support the Staff's
recommendations that they take the next 6 months to survey visitors to better understand visitors'
challenges with the current ParkMobile system and to find ways to mitigate them without returning the
area to the unsafe traffic conditions that we experienced prior to the parking system implementation. As
earlier stated, we feel it is imperative to install the Burma Rd. Trail gate before implementing any
modification to the parking reservation system that will further increase visitor traffic. Finally, adequate
enforcement personnel must be hired and trained before any modification to the parking system that
will increase visitor traffic is implemented.

Oct. 2, 2022
Dear City Council,
As a resident of the Del Cerro neighborhood, I wish to thank you for working with our HOA to
help eliminate the traffic hazards (double parking and the U-turns) that I've experienced prior
to the parking reservation system. The reservation system has reduced those hazards
significantly and I'm worried that by switching to a "parking on demand" model, myself and my
neighbors will once again have to deal with unsafe conditions entering our community.
Currently, it's recommended that "on demand" parking be kept at the $10.35 rate for 3 hours.
However, if this recommendation does not meet the City's goal, will the rate and/or the
amount of time to park be lowered? If so, these changes will only increase the number of
drivers double parking and/or making U-turns while trying to find a space as close to the Burma Trail entrance as
possible.
I hope the Council will approve the staff's recommendations to install the Burma and
Rattlesnake gates before making a commitment to study the feasibility of an "on demand"
system. Our community has experienced close encounters with fire, leaving the preserve open
24 hours only increases the chances of another. We've waited patiently for the gates to be
completed, their installation is paramount to keeping our neighborhood safe.
Thank you for listening to my concerns.
Sincerely,
Lance Moyer

Subject: RE: changing Crenshaw Blvd parking to a parking-on-demand (first come, first served) system
To dear city Staff and Council members,
We heard city is considering to eliminate the current requirement for visitors to obtain one-hour advanced
reservations and change to a parking-on-demand system
However, we consider the current advanced reservations requirement to be the single most important aspect
of the system that prevents the unsafe traffic conditions that the neighborhood was experiencing before the
system was implemented -including visitors impeding traffic while waiting for parking spaces to become
available, backing up unsafely to get a parking space, and making unsafe U-turns to get to a parking space
farther from the trailheads or to leave the area.
The current one-hour advanced reservation requirement discourages visitors from driving to the end of
Crenshaw looking for an open space and, instead, encourages them to go straight to a free parking area that
doesn't require reservations.
The one hour time may be reduced down 30 minutes, but again, the advanced reservation requirement
should be kept for above reason.
Sincerely
Hongpyo and Julie Lee

To: RPV City Council
As Del Cerro residents and frequent hikers, we are extremely pleased that that the current parking system at the end of
Crenshaw has eliminated the hazardous chaotic parking situation that existed previously.
At the same time, we believe the details of the Park Mobile system are awkward and discourage reasonable levels of
parking, and that small changes to the details can significantly increase usage of pay parking.
A well-crafted survey of users seems the fastest way to determine the optimum Park Mobile configuration.
We assume everybody wants to avoid returning to the daily chaos and borderline road-rage that existed prior to
implementing the present parking controls.
Thank you for your time and efforts,
-Mark & Mei

RE: OCT 4th CITY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA ITEM #2 (ParkMobile Parking System)
Dear City Council,
As a resident of the Del Cerro since 1967, I appreciate the efforts the Council has made to reduce the traffic on Crenshaw
Blvd south of Crest Road. The implementation of the ParkMobile reservation system has been an enormous improvement
in mitigating the horrible traffic while improving safety for nearby residents as well as visitors to the Portuguese Bend
Reserve.
As we are all aware, this area on Crenshaw was never intended to be the primary parking area for the Palos Verdes Nature
Preserve. Years ago, our community approved the Land Conservancy and City's plan to provide parking access at
Gateway on Palos Verdes Drive South. Many, including my family, provided funds for the purchase of the land with this
parking plan in mind. It is my sincere hope that future Council members will revisit Gateway and make it the primary
entrance once envisioned with restrooms, picnic tables, posted trail routes and a nature conservation information center.
I'm opposed to any motion to replace our current reservation parking system with On Demand Parking without a more
comprehensive understanding of its impact on our community. The Staff's recommendation to survey visitors will help
and I fully support that effort.
I also would like to know why the council feels the need to replace the current system. This has never been clear to me. If
the reason is monetary then I'm concerned that the On Demand System could ultimately be modified to ensure maximum
return by lowering the rate and allowing visitors to park for any amount of time they'd need. What we're left with is a
digital system akin to parking meters. This is the "slippery slope", that would return us to the unsafe conditions that once
existed. The conditions that you and the Staff have so successfully mitigated over the past years.
I also agree with Staff's recommendation that no change to the reservation system should be considered until the Burma
Trail and Rattlesnake Trail gates are completed. If safety for residents and visitors is Council's main concern, then the
gates are a priority. Quite frankly, it's incomprehensible that since May 2021 we've been waiting for their installation.
Thank you for listening!

Good morning.
I have lived in .Del Cerro for many years and am familiar with the parking situation since the parking reservation system
was instituted. I was surprised that more people were not willing to pay for the parking. It seems people would rather
walk further than pay for parking. It has been several months since the system was instituted and I don't think the
problem is because people forget or don't know to make reservations. There are many local people and return trail
users who are well aware of the system. I think it is more likely they don't want to pay the fee.
I am very concerned that eliminating the reservation system will result in the return of the problems it was designed to
eliminate. I think people will wait for a parking spot to open thereby blocking the street. I think they will make unsafe u
turns to get to a space that opens.
Perhaps more study is needed. I think encouraging rather than eliminating reservations is what has eradicated the
dangers that open parking created in that area. Perhaps lowering the parking rate would encourage reservation use. I
believe before the reservation system is eliminated every effort should be made to encourage the use, otherwise we are
just headed back to the conditions that created the problems.
Respectfully submitted

To RPV Council Members,
We have been homeowners in Del Cerro for over 30 years and we have the following concerns about possible changes
to the current parking system on Crenshaw between Crest Road the the Preserve entrance to Burma Road:
• The current parking system is working well by: A) charging for parking which helps limit the number of cars since
many people seem to only want to hike if it is free, and B) By requiring visitors to plan ahead to make
reservations for parking, which eliminates dangerous crowding and U-turns on Crenshaw when
people double-park or hover while waiting for a space to open or dashing to get to a space when one opens
up.
• We would like to see RPV city staff survey visitors to better understand what (if any) issues there are with the
current parking approach (including the ParkMobile system).
• We recommend the city NOT change the current parking system until the survey results have been analyzed and
reviewed with the Del Cerro HOA to obtain input on any changes.
• Also before any parking changes are made, the gates at the entrances to the Burma Road and Rattlesnake trails
should be installed to control the hours of access to the preserve (which further relates to when people park
on Crenshaw).
• Finally, enforcement of parking regulations and hours of access to the preserve should be addressed if any
parking changes are made.
Thank you for your consideration of our concerns.
Sincerely, Rick & Lori Daniels (3 Amber Sky Drive)

Park Mobile parking system
Dear City Council Members,
We wanted to provide our comments on the proposed changes to
the Park Mo bile parking system. After several years of careful
consideration the city council and staff arrived at a very workable
solution to satisfy hikers and residents. The Park Mobile app
system works well and achieved our collective goals to balance
community, visitors and residents needs. Please do not change
the present methodologies of the parking system!
Bridget walks in the Crest/Crenshaw area 7 days a week. She
never hears hikers who are walking from the free parking areas
complain about walking to the trails. We also never read about
anyone complaining on the Nextdoor app.
People who want to park very close to Burma Trail pay for closer
access to the trailhead. People who want to park free, know the
locations for free parking and utilize them. If there are some
visitors that don't know this then they need to be educated about
it. Parking in the free parking areas adds 5 minutes onto their hike
and keeps our neighborhood quiet and the road to our homes
safer. These are facts, why would you consider a change? Further,
in reviewing Exhibit D-1 of the Staff Bulletin, there were only 2 3
comments regarding parking citations over a period of one year,
or two per month. Given the number of people who visit the trails,
1
2.
this number tells me that the vast majority of people who access
the trails and utilize the Park Mobile system are satisfied with the
present protocol.
Yesterday morning on a beautiful Sunday as we drove down
Crenshaw at 10:30 a.m. there were quite a few cars parked on
Crest and Crenshaw north of Crest and there was still plenty of
free parking available. By 1:30 p.m. most of the free parking was
available. We use this section of Crenshaw every day and never
see all of the free parking spots filled up, which tells us that the
present system is working very well!
Please remember that prior to the implementation of the Park
Mobile system, all day long hundreds of cars circled around and
around Park Place and Crenshaw south of Crest because drivers
were looking for the closest place to park. It was an ordeal for
those of us who live in the Del Cerro and Island View communities,
Burrell Lane, Park Place and Valley View Road. If the Park Mobile
system is modified to "on demand" or "free", our communities will
return to the terrible traffic situation we experienced before
implementation of the present protocol. Hikers now know that
they have to pay to park close and if they want a free place to park
there's plenty available on Crest and Crenshaw north of Crest, so
they do not continually circle around looking for the closest place
to park and our streets and communities are safer.
The city council has worked very hard and for years to figure out a
system that works, you have found it, please leave it as it is. Many
people will be moving into the large apartment complex on
Crenshaw and Lomita and I'm sure they will find their way to
Burma Trail. The system needs to remain unchanged.
2
Lastly, it seems to us that if you survey visitors who have no idea
why the parking system was put in place, all of the feedback
responses will be negative and respondents will respond in favor
of on-demand and/or free parking.
Thank you for your time.

Honorable Mayor and Council Members,
The Del Cerro HOA supports the Staff's recommendation that the City take the next 6 months to survey
visitors to better understand visitors' challenges with the current ParkMobile system and to find ways to
improve its use without returning the area to the unsafe traffic conditions that we experienced prior to the
current parking system implementation.
We understand the City's goal to achieve a balance between visitors' desires for more convenient parking
adjacent to the preserve and neighbors' need for a safe, quiet and peaceful quality of life. We also understand
the City's need to find a level of parking usage that covers the cost of the parking system.
Over the past month, we have been working with Staff to develop options that achieve the City's goals. We
have been searching for ways to increase usage incrementally in a controlled way.
However, we are finding that parking system limitations and a lack of understanding of the parameters that
are the main hindrances to usage are presenting challenges that we haven't yet overcome. We agree with
Staff's recommendation that any system changes should not be made until a visitor survey is completed to
better understand their concerns with the current system, and to determine why visitors are parking on Crest
Rd. and on Crenshaw north of Crest Rd. (rather than in the paid parking spaces). This would give us additional
information and time to evaluate additional less dramatic changes that directly address visitor concerns and to
develop better options that do not return the area to the unsafe traffic conditions we experienced before the
ParkMobile system was implemented.
The current parking reservation system is the only mitigation measure that is currently in place and that has
effectively improved traffic safety and restored peace and quiet to the neighborhood since the current effort
to improve traffic began in 2020. We feel it is imperative that the Burma Rd. and Rattlesnake Trail gates are
installed and that adequate parking enforcement personnel are hired and trained before implementing any
modification to the parking reservation system that will increase traffic.
We stand ready to continue working collaboratively with Staff to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of
various options.

Hello and thank you for your service.
As a Del Cerro Resident we would like to make a few comments about the proposed changes to the Crenshaw Corridor
Parking:
• The most important item for any City is Public Safety and it has always been communicated by RPV
city council and staff that is our number one priority. The current parking system is working
effectively at addressing the past major safety issues that we as a neighborhood experienced years
ago. Traffic can safely pass through the Crenshaw corridor. By installing a system that would 'allow'
more cars to cross Crest and speed down Crenshaw to find a metered parking space would
completely contradict all of the efforts that have been made over the past years. We are RPV and
not a major metropolitan city.
• Not knowing the exact stats but there is sense that crime, specifically home invasions, burglary,
vehicle thefts are up in LA County and on the Peninsula. A modification to the current system would
increase traffic into our neighborhood with the potential of persons with criminal intents .
•
• What is the plan to Take the next 6 months to survey visitors to better understand visitors'
challenges with the current ParkMobile system and to find ways to mitigate them without returning
the area to the unsafe traffic conditions that we experienced prior to the parking system
implementation? It is a fairly straight forward app and payment system.
• Only 7% usage of park mobile be 25% is needed to cover costs?! People are cost savvy and are using
the free parking near SJF and north of Crest so proving they are willing to walk etc. for free parking.
So, just get rid of the meters and cost to the city and restrict the parking where the meters currently
are. The small amount of financial gain is not worth the life of a child on a bike, or a couple enjoying
a neighborhood walk. The public is proving its not needed and the free parking that is safer further
down is adequate!
• It is imperative to install the Burma Rd. and Rattlesnake Trail gates before implementing any
modification (Not desired) to the parking reservation system that will increase visitor traffic.
1
• I motion for no change or modification to the parking system.
Sincerely,
Del Cerro Resident

Subject: October 4 City Council Agenda Item #2
Dear Mayor and City Council Members,
I understand the City Council is considering a change in the way the
present park mobile system now operates on Crenshaw Blvd. The
prevailing rules, that are now in place, have been the single most
important feature in improving the traffic safety and overall security for
our community. Before a modification to the existing system is
considered, the gates at the main entrance to the Reserve
and Rattlesnake Trail need to be installed and in working order. We also
need to ensure that we have the personnel to educate visitors and
provide enforcement. I understand that the existing system does not pay
for itself but it must be remembered that this program was not designed
as a profit center but to provide community safety. There are many
features the city provides for our RPV community that don't provide a
profit or even pay for themselves. Whether this system pays for itself or
not should not be the primary consideration. It was put in place to afford
our community a safe place to live. A move to change puts us and the
visitors to the Reserve at risk. If the system is changed we will again have
the visitors double parked, backing up and making illegal U-turns while
waiting for an open parking space. This was dangerous for all involved. I
strongly believe that the present system should not be altered.
1
7.
If the City Council still believes a change is necessary it should be
incremental. Perhaps, two days a week you could use a different parking
arrangement. Over several months you can then evaluate how this
alternative system, such as a park on demand model, impacts the
community. I believe a more stepwise, logical approach makes the most
sense and does not again put our community at risk. Thank you for your
consideration.

Dear RPV City Council members
As nearly 40 year residents of Del Cerro, we would like to brief you on the current status of the parking arrangements on
Crenshaw Blvd and Park Place.
Ever since the city implemented the current parking arrangements, the traffic situation on Crenshaw Blvd has been
excellent, reminding us on what we experienced prior to the establishment of the Nature Preserve.
The current arrangement has eliminated people from waiting in their cars (double or triple parked) and waiting for a
parking spot to open up and making fast double U turns to capture a space behind the location of the driver. These
double U turns were common and exceedingly dangerous as the drivers seemed to be blinded by the opportunity to
capture a parking spot that was being released. As frequent users of bikes on Crenshaw, riding that stretch of road was a
very tense affair as you never knew who would suddenly dash into a fast Uturn without noticing an incoming bike and its
rider.
As you are reviewing the current situation once again, let me stress that the concept of having to have a 'prior
reservation' is key and critical to avoid visitors double parking in the hope that a parking spot opens up.
So whatever you ultimately decide, I strongly recommend to keep that feature as part of the solution.
Best Regards
Wouter & Kim van Biene

Subject: Western Avenue Projects
Dear Mr. Awwad and Mr. Rukavina,
Thank you for the informative status report regarding Western Avenue.
Questions regarding Table 5:
Please clarify the intention of listing the properties shown in Table 5 "Opportunity Sites Identified by
Piasky Solutions". Why are the properties listed in this Table not consistent with properties included
in the 6th Cycle Draft Housing Element which was approved by the City Council?
More specifically, why is the Terraces property (28821 S. Western Ave.) included in the table showing
446 potential residential units? The Terraces property was not ultimately included in the 6th Cycle
Draft Housing Element both because the viable existing commercial uses of that property are
important to the community and because concentrating an excessive number of new residential units
at that location would severely impact the adjacent residential neighborhood as well as impacting
traffic on Western Avenue.
Table 5 footnote #2 clarifies that the numbers shown in the table "were based on redevelopment of
housing only without any commercial uses on the parcel." Why then are these numbers included in
an evaluation of Mixed Use?
Questions regarding Figures 1 & 2 (page 12):
Figure 1 clearly states that the plan is for "2 Story Lofts Above Ground Floor Retail". Figure 2,
however, is labeled as "Activated Commercial Corner with Townhomes". What does that mean? The
graphic for Figure 1 shows structures labeled as "Condos" and unlabeled structures which
presumably would be the Townhomes. However, there is no indication of any commercial element.
It is not clear what Mixed Use Zoning will entail. Will each individual parcel be required to include
both commercial and residential uses?
Thank you for your continuing efforts to address the challenges that the city is facing.

Task 3.3 Biological Habitat Assessment and Report
The Portuguese Bend and Abalone Cove preserve areas have been well
documented. Chambers Group will review biological assessments provided
for the Portuguese Bend area as well as data provided in the Final Rancho
Palos Verdes NCCP/HCP and incorporate the data into an updated biological
habitat assessment. Chambers Group will also conduct a database review for
state and federally listed and/or sensitive species, USFWS National Wetlands
Inventory Maps, topographic maps, and blueline drainages. Once all data has
been reviewed, Chambers Group biologists will conduct a field survey and
confirm the existing vegetation data; however, much of vegetation
communities were scaled to a mapping unit of 1-acre which may not be
effective to assess quality of habitat, suitable habitat for listed or sensitive
species, and Project impact calculations. Therefore, Chambers Group will
provide a more detailed vegetation mapping and habitat assessments for the
Project impact areas, including: repair locations for existing fractures, surface
drainage improvements, flow reduction area (basin), and hydrauger locations.
This approach will reduce mitigation costs significantly. The biologists will
focus on suitable habitat for the NCCP/HCP covered species with a potential
to occur, including coastal California gnatcatcher and host plants for the
Palos Verdes blue butterfly as well as habitat for sensitive plants known to
occur in the area. Maps of the vegetation communities within the
approximate 250-acre area will be updated with the field data and will be
0 I 203.0006/813094.6
digitized on aerial images. Potential waters and wetland habitats on the site
will be evaluated. Upon completion of field survey, all GIS data collected will
be reviewed. Data gathered from the survey and analysis effort will be
included in the comprehensive biological report. This task does not include
agency consultations or permitting.
This scope does not include focused surveys or agency consultations.
Task 3.4 Cultural Resources Assessment
The following tasks are provided to address the cultural resources
sensitivity of the 250-acre project area and satisfy information required to
address the CEQA checklist.
Task 3.4.1: Literature Review
Chambers Group will conduct a literature review, including a review of the
findings of a records search through the California Historical Resources
Information System (CHRIS) database at the South-Central Coastal
Information Center (SCCIC) housed at California State University, Fullerton.
The records search will be conducted by SCCIC staff and review relevant
previously recorded cultural resources and previous investigations
completed for the one-mile search radius surrounding the Project site.
Information to be reviewed will include location maps for all previously
recorded cultural resources, previously conducted investigation boundaries,
National Archaeological Database (NADB) citations and copies for associated
reports, historic maps, and historic addresses. Chambers Group will also
review properties listed on/as the California Points of Historical Interest
(CPHI), California Historical Landmarks (CHL), Caltrans Historic Highway
Bridge Inventory, California Historical Resources Inventory, local city and
county registries of historic properties, the California Register of Historic
Resources (CRHR), and the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).
Additional sources of information that may be reviewed include but are not
limited to Certified Local Government annual reports and other data,
HABS/HAER records, the National Register Information System, the on-line
database for National Register sites, Calisphere Digital Resources, Online
Archive of California, Government Land Office Plat Maps, Sanborn Fire
Insurance Maps, local historical societies and libraries, as well as inventory
files and data on-file with other agencies that control property near the area.
The task will also include a search for potential prehistoric and/or historic
burials (human remains) evident in previous site records and/or historical
maps (i.e., Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, Government Land Office Plat Maps).
In addition to the above research, a request that the Native American
Heritage Commission (NAHC) will be submitted for a review of their sacred
land files (SLF). This search will identify if any resources important to Native
Americans have been recorded within the project area and surrounding
vicinity. The NAHC will provide the results and a list of affiliated tribal
01203.0006/813094.6
representatives to contact for additional information. Chambers Group will
provide the results of the NAHC SLF search and list of tribes in the cultural
resources letter report. It is assumed that the City of Rancho Palos Verdes
will be the lead under AB 52 Tribal Consultation (if necessary). Note that this
research alone does not satisfy the lead agency's requirements under AB 52.
An optional task to support the City with AB-52 consultation is included
below.
Task 3.4.2: Field Survey
Chambers Group will complete a field survey of the proposed 250-acre
project area. The cultural resources survey will be conducted in accordance
with the professional standards as described by the National Parks Service,
Secretary of Interior's Standards and Guidelines, as amended for
Archaeology and Historic Preservation. Chambers Group cultural resources
specialist will survey the Project area for the presence of:
• Prehistoric artifacts (e.g., flaked stone tools),
• Tool-making debris, stone milling tools,
• Historic artifacts (e.g., metal, glass, ceramics},
• Sediment discoloration (ex. midden, hearth features),
• Depressions and other features indicative of the former presence of
structures or buildings (e.g., post holes, foundations),
• Historic ruins, buildings, structures, and/or objects.
This cost estimate assumes no cultural resources will be encountered during
this survey. If cultural resources are identified, a revised scope of work and
cost may be necessary.
Task 3.4.3: Letter Report
The results of the cultural resources study will be summarized in a letter
report which will include; the results of the literature review and field survey,
proposed mitigation measures (if any}, and site photos and references. The
letter report is assumed to contain up to 1 5 pages of text, graphics, and
appendices. A draft copy of the letter report will be provided to the City for
review.
Deliverables: One Draft and One Final electronic copy of the Archaeology
Survey Report
Optional Tasks 3.4.4
The following tasks are optional and d~pendent upon the findings work
completed previously. Upon Notice to Proceed (NTP) Chambers Group will
provide the following optional tasks, as directed.
Optional Task 3.4.4.A. Assembly Bill (AB 52) Tribal Consultation Support
The following task has been provided to support the City with AB 52
services, including but not limited to; preparation of notification letters; tribal
consultation and tracking; assessment of information related to TCRs
provided by the Tribe(s); and drafting appropriate mitigation measures (as
warranted). Up 24 hours have been included to provide support with this
task, as needed. If additional hours are needed to conclude AB 52
consultation an augmented cost and scope may be required.
Optional Task 3.4.4.B. Paleontological Review
Report describing the high potential importance of the Monterey and why
this area is of significance to the paleontological and geological community.
There is a known slight limitation on the stratigraphic location and position
of any important fossil specimens recovered due to the nature of the
landslide and the downward motion of deposits demonstrated by previous
studies of the Portuguese Bend Landslide since the 1950's. However, this
area is designated as type area for the Middle to late Miocene age Altamira
Shale Member of the Monterey Formation which does restrict the age as
recognized for this unit in the Palos Verdes Peninsula and elsewhere in
California. It is possible that significant vertebrate fossil remains and other
fossils such as invertebrate and plant remains may be discovered during
excavation activities associated with this Project. As a result of the field
survey it should be possible to determine if these deposits are fossiliferous
in this region and help to make recommendations for a future
Paleontological Mitigation Program.
Assumptions:
This proposal assumes a negative findings survey.
Task 3.5 Water Quality and Hydrology Study
KPFF Consulting Engineers will be preparing a CEQA technical report in
support of an MND or EIR. They understand the area of study is assumed to
be a roughly 650-acre watershed.
Hydrology and Water Quality Technical Report
The scope of work for this report includes a discussion of existing site conditions
as well as regulatory requirements and the role of government agencies regarding a
01203.0006/813094.6
range of hydrological issues. The report will also include an analysis of potential
project impacts including flood hazard, ground water, and surface water runoff in
terms of the local and regional storm drainage systems, identification of project
mitigation measures, and significance of impacts both before and after mitigation.
