Top issues during term (10)(Environment)
Ocean Avenue sidewalk tree removal
Tree replacement is planned and funded within the project, per staff.
Native planting requirements in the landscape ordinance
Higher up-front plant costs for developers (native gardens ran about $4,300 more in Santa Monica's test), offset by roughly $2,200/year lower water and maintenance costs.
E-Line bike path landscape maintenance
Costs are limited to irrigation repair and mulch; staff noted they are seeking grants for a new drip irrigation system for the four-block corridor.
Ballona Creek federal study support
A planned bike path improvement project from Duquesne to Syd Kronenthal is getting underway; a south-of-Duquesne improvement request was not funded.
Diversity Awareness Projects Micro-Site (Gabrielino Tongva History)
Syd Kronenthal Park stormwater capture project
Up to $1.2 million in city funds for design and environmental services.
Street sweeping services contract
Roughly $904,000 in year one, rising in later years, plus two option years.
Ballona Creek watershed monitoring cost-sharing
Cost sharing with regional partners on monitoring obligations.
Costco gas station expansion CEQA review
A full CEQA review adds cost and delay for Costco, but the city avoided potential litigation risk from an invalid exemption.
PACE financing program
Zero cost to taxpayers; homeowners repay through property tax assessments at roughly 9.49% currently.
