BACKGROUND
The recommendation will establish appropriations of $320,000 in the San Diego County Flood Control District to repair a stormwater drain damaged by a sinkhole in the Lakeside community. San Diego County Flood Control District staff conducted field inspections, and a Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) assessment of the sinkhole revealed severe corrosion and sections of missing pipe material. The system was determined to require urgent repair, as the surrounding area will continue to deteriorate and become unstable, posing a risk to the safety and well-being of the community if no action is taken. The funding source is available prior year San Diego County Flood Control District Fund fund balance. The project is anticipated to be completed in Summer 2026.
