The staff has had several discussi ons with re p r e s entatives of the City of Tustin where the subsidence is occurring in a 600-foot st r etch of Red Hill Avenue between Bry an Av enue a n d Firs t Street . It is my recommendati on that the Board consider two a l te r nates wi t h re spe ct to the necessary r epai r work caused by this subsidence : (1) De ny r esponsibility fo r the pro bl em on the bas i s that the back fill compaction was under the supervision o f the County Road Department at the time the sewe r was installed and that the District complied with the Department 's c ompaction re g ulations as evidenced by meeting compaction test s made by the Department (2 ) Accept r espons i b ility ... to- for the subsidence and a uthori ze the City to make the n ecessary r e pairs by use of c onnec tion funds collected by the City and he ld in a special City fund known as th e County Sanitation Di stri ct No. 7 1 Main Trunk Fund . The City has been asked to submit a letter p r esenting cost estimates of the repair work but , at the t ime of this wri ting , this letter has not been rece i ved . I f r eceived before the Bo ard meeting, it will be included .with the comp l ete agenda avai l able at tl:).at time .
