WHEREAS, on October 2015, in conjunction with site preparation for the
Westside Infill Transit Oriented Development ("WI-TOD") Project, National City Public Works
staff performed a dye test and video of an existing 8-inch sewer line to confirm location, flow,
and structural integrity of the pipe, and discovered that the pipe was ruptured in several
locations; and
WHEREAS, the sewer line services a handful of residences located in the vicinity
of West 20th Street and Coolidge Avenue, passes across the future WI-TOD park site on the
west side of Paradise Creek, under the Paradise Creek streambed, and across the WI-TOD
Phase II site on the east side of Paradise Creek; and
WHEREAS, because this was an active sewer line at the time of testing, and to
ensure effluents did not reach Paradise Creek, the City Manager, based on findings and
recommendations provided by the City Engineer, declared that the work required to implement
repairs constituted an "emergency," consistent with California Public Contract Code Section
22050 ("Emergency Contracting Procedures") and National City Municipal Code Section
2.60.230 ("Emergency Purchases -Emergency Defined"), which allow for the waiver of
competitive bidding procedures under emergency conditions; and
WHEREAS, on October 27, 2015, the City Manager executed a Letter
Agreement with Paradise Creek II Housing Partners to provide emergency services, because
their project engineer and contractor were readily available to expedite the project design and
construction; and
WHEREAS, in December, 2015, the contractor for Paradise Creek II Housing
Partners, VCC, LLC, started construction, which is approximately 90% complete.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council hereby ratifies the
City Manager's declaration of emergency work to address issues related to a ruptured 8-inch
sewer line on the Westside Infill Transit Oriented Development (WI-TOD) site near Paradise
Creek.
