Dear Board Members:
This letter is to request the cooperation of Contra Costa County in implementation of the City of
Walnut Creek's Creek Restoration and Trails Master Plan.
The City's Master Plan calls for restoration of the creeks in the downtown area and creation of a
trail system along the creek banks of three creeks, Las Trampas Creek, San Ramon Creek and
Walnut Creek. Portions of all three creeks are under the jurisdiction of Contra Costa County
Public Works Department, Flood Control Division. Cooperation from Contra Costa County in
reviewing and approving the appropriate plans would greatly facilitate implementation of creek
restoration efforts and creation of trails along the creeks.
In addition, one of the goals of the City's Creek Plan is to interconnect creek trails with other
local and regional trails in the area. The City understands that Contra Costa County is the
recipient of a trail easement along Las Trampas Creek just west of the City limits but within the
City's sphere of influence. The City encourages implementation of this trail to provide county
residents with access to the creek trail system and expand access to the creek for all trail users.
The City of Walnut Creek suggests that a staff technical committee be established to enhance
cooperation for creek restoration and creation of the creek trails. Such a committee could consist
of representatives from Contra Costa Community Development Department and the Public Works
Department, Flood Control Division and the City of Walnut Creek.
The City is excited about implementation of the widely supported Creek Restoration and Trails
Plan. A pilot project for the Master Plan will be underway in June, 1996. Any cooperative
assistance Contra Costa County can provide in future implementation efforts would be greatly
appreciated. If you have any technical questions about the City's proposed plans please contact
David Wallace, Senior Planner at 943-5834.
Sincerely,
GWEN REGALIA
Mayor
