SANTA CLARITA WATER, A DIVISION OF CASTAIC LAKE
WATER AGENCY (SCWD), WATER WELL LEASE
AGREEMENT
Transportation and Engineering Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council approve the Lease Agreement with Santa Clarita Water (SCWD) for the water well;
authorize the City Manager or designee to execute all documents, subject to City Attorney
approval; and increase estimated revenues by $12,000.00 in Account No. 352-4453 for DBAA
No. 19 to account for the lease revenue generated by this agreement.
BACKGROUND
In 1998, Drainage Benefit Assessment Area (DBAA) No. 19 was formed to address and mitigate
high ground water levels in the Four Oaks neighborhood in the Canyon Country community.
The well listed in this agreement is located on Canyon View Drive (Doherty Avenue) near the
terminus of Delight Street and is one of two pump stations in DBAA No. 19 that keeps ground
water at manageable levels. The well drains into the nearby Santa Clara River and was last
utilized in 1998.
SCWD has expressed an interest in leasing an existing water well on City property. SCWD has
tested the well and found adequate levels of production to supplement the increased demand,
specifically in the summer months. The proposed lease terms are $1,000.00 per month for a
minimum of two years. SCWD will be responsible for all maintenance and utility costs
associated with the operation of the well. Per DBAA policy, lease revenue will be deposited into
the DBAA No. 19 account and can only be used for that specific DBAA.
SCWD is conducting water quality testing on the well. If test results indicate unsuitable
conditions, as part of the health department requirements and under the terms of the proposed
lease, this lease will not be executed.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
Per the terms of the Lease Agreement, this action will provide a benefit to DBAA No. 19 in the
amount of $1,000.00 per month for two years.

Re: Your Well off of Calla Way ("Delight Street" Well)
Dear Mr. Newman:
As we have recently discussed, the Santa Clarita Water Division (SCWD) of Castaic
Lake Water Agency would like to lease your well known as the "Delight Street' Well fox
two years. We have recently tested the well, and it will produce enough water. to -help
with our summer peaking demands. We also could operate the well in the winter to help
with your desire to lower the water table in the immediate area -
We would
rea.
We.would use our pump, column, shaft, motor and pump head and store your equipment
or deliver it to any location you desire. It appears, however, that your pumps and shaft
are inoperable. SCWD would pay all costs of operation, including power. In addition,
we would pay the city $1,000 per month for the use of the land.
At the completion of the two years, we would return the well to its current condition, or
perhaps negotiate a purchase or lease extension if it would mutually benefit the city and
SCWD.
If these terms are satisfactory, please let me know. Summer is coming and we would like
to operate the well as soon as possible. Thank you for all your help in this matter.
Sincerely,
W. J. Manetta, Jr.
Retail Manager
