Consultant would develop plan and obtain permits for regular removal of cobblestone berm that builds up on the beach
Oceanside plans to hire a consultant for $120,000 to plan, design and obtain permits for the regular maintenance of Loma Alta Creek, the site of a long-planned wetlands restoration. Loma Alta Creek flows into the ocean at Buccaneer Beach, where the naturally occurring rock cobble creates a large berm for most of the year. The city uses bulldozers and heavy equipment to remove the berm and lower the water when it becomes stagnant and threatens to flood nearby properties.
Consent calendar items usually are approved in a single vote without individual presentations or comments. The area to be studied by Dudek covers about half an acre west of the bridge. The consultant's services will provide information to assist the city with other projects planned for the creek area.
