Dear Mr. Vogt:
File: 0710.1811.05
Subject: La Quinta Encroachment Permit No. 3413
for Madison Street/Avenue 50 Sewer Main
The letter is in response to La Quinta Encroachment Permit No. 3413, copy enclosed.
General Provision R10 of the permit requires that the area be surfaced with soil sterilizer.
Please provide evidence that the project area has been previously sterilized.
Special Condition 3 states that the estimated cost of the encroachment permit is
approximately $45,500. However, California Government Code Section 6103 exempts the
district from paying city fees for any official service such as an encroachment permit fee.
The district recommends that $3,000 be deposited for inspection costs. Upon completion of
the project, La Quinta will invoice the actual inspection costs incurred and the District will
pay the amount owed or La Quinta will reimburse the balance.
The District disagrees with the pavement replacement requirements of Special Condition 18.
These requirements are the subject of a lawsuit, CVWD vs. the City of La Quinta, Case
No. INC 010827. In addition to legal issues raised in the lawsuit, there are impending
developments on both sides of Avenue 50 adjacent to the project. These developments will
be required to reconstruct the entire roadway. We can see no reason why District ratepayers
should bear the expense of these added restoration costs only to have others remove and
replace pavement within months. In light of development consideration, items A, D and E of
Special Provision 18 are a costly and wasteful use of public funds.
The District requests that the provision and conditions stated above be removed from the
permit.
TRUE CONSERVATION
USE WATER WISELY
