RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Adopt a resolution adopting a map showing the easement in which the public walkway interest is proposed to be vacated and abandoned. 2. Adopt a resolution declaring the City's intention to vacate and abandon the public walkway interest in an existing public walkway and storm drain easement, and setting August 11, 1975 as the date for the public hearing concern- ing the intended vacation and abandonment. DISCUSSION: T- b, 7-110-7S In a letter dated May 20, 1975, the Harbor View Hills Community Association requested that the City vacate and abandon the "walkway portion" of an existing ten -foot wide walkway and storm drain easement along the north- easterly edge of Lot 27, Tract No. 3660 (copy of letter attached). This easement was offered for dedication to the public and accepted by the City on the final tract map which was recorded on April 13, 1961. The walkway interest was included with the necessary storm drain easement in anticipation of the Grant Howald Park being moved or extended northerly along the Jasmine Creek canyon. The walkway would have provided access to the proposed public park from the adjacent residential area. A storm drainage pipe was constructed and is functioning through the easement. Since 1961, a number of events have occurred which seem to elimi- nate any requirement for retaining the "walkway portion" of the easement. Harbor View Dam was constructed with a street crossing over it to connect to Marguerite Avenue. The dam is designed to create a flood control retard- ing basin on its upstream side. The steepness of the canyon sides combined with the retarding basin function make it unlikely that the area will be July 14, 1975 Subject: Request to Vacate and Abandon the Walkway Portion of an Existing Public Walkway and Storm Drain Easement in Lot 27 of Tract No. 3660 Page 2 developed as a park. The Jasmine Creek Planned Community borders the remainder of the retarding basin cutting off access to the area by the general public. It appears at this point that the area to which the walkway easement provides access will not be used for recreational purposes open to the general public. Therefore, the request to vacate and abandon the public walkway inter- est in the existing easement is reasonable in this situation. The recommended actions outlined above will start the vacation and abandonment proceedings. The proposed vacation has been reviewed by both Parks, Beaches, and Recreation Department and Community Development Department. They have no objections to the vacation of the walkway easement. oseph .

Dear Mr. Devlin: Tract No. 3660, M.M. 144/99 10, 11 (copy attached) shows a " 10, foot Walkway and Storm Drain Lasement" across the northeasterly edge of lot No. 27y.. the residence of lessees, Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Wilke, 3007 Setting Sun Drive, Corona del Mar, (Picone 640-4786). The lot is located on the northwest rim of Jasmine Creek Canyon, north of the dam on Harbor View Drive. The Irvine Co., owner of the land, subject to the ease- ment dedicated to the city, has informed us that the Company does not desire access there, that the easement has never been open to the public; that it mould be hazardous if opened, and that the Company has no ob- _:ection to the city vacating the dralkviay portion of the easement. Based upon our discussion with you and your staff, it is understood that the portion of the easement for a walkway was ob- tained as a potential access when there was a possibility of the Grant Howald Park being :roved northward. Now it appears the high IIarbor View Dam, Jasmine Creek development and the very steep canyon walls make this a small box canyon inappropriate for such use. Under the circumstances summarized above, it is requested that the city vacate the walkway portion of the easement. The ease- ment would then be the same as others in the area; the lessees(Wilkes) HARBOR VIEW HILLS COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION CORONA DEL MAR, CALIFORNIA (2) would landscape the area and be relieved of one source of concern, but realizing that the city would, of course, have to come in as required by the underground storm drain.
