ITEM TITLE Resolution 8806 Approving Encroachment Permit for Construction
of Swimming Pool Over a Public Sewer at 1153 Nolan Avenue
Director of Public Works/City Engineer ,~~`~~,
SUBMITTED BY
ITEM EXPLANATION (4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES NO x )
Background
The City issued a building permit for the construction of a swimming
pool in the rear yard of ,the residence at 1153 Nolan Avenue. The permit
was processed through Engineering. The staff, through an oversight, did
not discover the presence of an existing 8 inch sewer main in conflict
with the swimming pool construction. The existing sewer main was dis-
covered subsequent to the excavation for the pool. If staff had discovered
the presence of the sewer prior to the issuance of the building permit,
the property owner would have been required to relocate the pool so that
it was not in conflict with the sewer or relocate the sewer main at his
expense. Another alternative would have been for the property owner to
request the granting of an encroachment permit to construct the pool over
the existing sewer.
Since the City has issued a building permit and the property owner has
proceeded with the pool construction in good faith, Engineering staff
feels that it would now be inappropriate for the City to require the
property owner to relocate his pool or relocate the sewer at his expense.
Engineering staff has met with Mrs. Earl Turner, the property owner,
and Mr. Chris Stevens, of Anthony Pools, the Contractor, to discuss
an acceptable alternative to all parties so that construction of the
pool can proceed and yet assure adequate protection for the public
sewer main.
Based upon these discussions and the field investigation, Engineering
staff is recommending that an encroachment permit be issued to Mr. and
Mrs. Earl Turner for the construction of the swimming pool over the
KJG•et FY 005 (Continued on Supplemental Page 2)

existing sewer. The encroachment permit should be issued with the
following conditions:
1. The existing 8 inch vitrified clay sewer main shall be encased with
Portland cement concrete in accordance with Chula Vista Standard
Drawing No. 306. City forces will encase the sewer. Approximately
40 feet of the existing sewer is in conflict and will lie below the
proposed swimming pool. The cost of materials for encasing this
40 feet of sewer will be approximately $150 to $200. It is Engineer-
ing staff's opinion that encasement of the sewer will be sufficient
and adequate protection for this facility.
2. The bottom of the swimming pool will be raised such that it is
above the top of the sewer main and encasement. All over excavation
and voids will be backfilled with air blown mortar to ensure that
there will be no settlement or cracking of the pool shell.
3. Installation of the swimming pool shall in no way interfere with the
existing sewer. Any changes made to the sewer because of the swim-
ming pool installation shall be at the sole expense of the property
owner.
4. Maintenance, removal, or relocation of the swimming pool shall be
the sole responsibility of the permittee, leasee, or the representa-
tive of the owner, or leasee, or his successor in interest, at no
expense to the City of Chula Vista.
5. Installation of the swimming pool shall conform to the standards of
the City of Chula Vista.
Since the construction of the swimming pool over the existing sewer main
represents a permanent encroachment, Chapter 12.28 of the Chula Vista
Municipal Code requires that the issuance of an encroachment permit
for a permanent encroachment be approved by the City Council prior to
the issuance of the permit by the Director of Public Works. Mrs. Earl
Turner has made application for and paid the required application permit
fee as required by the City Code.
A transparency is available for Council viewing.
