BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Last winter's high water along the Mokelumne River caused the downing of nineteen (19) trees along the shoreline of City properties at Lodi Lake. Pursuant to Council direction, staff met with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and toured the damages to the river banks and congestion of fallen trees to river navigation. FEMA has approved funding for tree removal of the nineteen (19) trees fronting City property with the amount to be determined when bids are received. Design and specifications for this project must meet criteria and requirements set forth by State Fish and Game, East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD), Fishers Biologists and the US Corps of Engineers. The short window we have to accomplish the work during this winter has prompted the need to contract for the engineering and permitting required to accomplish this work. Mr. Lampe has worked with staff in the past in developing plans and specifications for bank stabilization in the nature area along the river. A request for approval of plans and specifications and advertisement for bids will be brought back to City Council in September. FUNDING.
