Issuance of General Lease – Public Agency Use – Lease 5740

The California State Lands Commission is authorizing a 20-year General Lease for Public Agency Use, commencing May 1, 2025, and concluding April 30, 2045, granting the City of Redwood City the right to continue operating existing water infrastructure located in Belmont Slough, adjacent to Redwood Shores. The leased assets include two 48-inch and one 54-inch reinforced concrete pipes, flap gates, a slide gate, rock riprap, and associated appurtenances, all situated on 0.328 acres of sovereign land at the northwest corner of Marine Parkway and Shearwater Parkway. The lease permits only the ongoing operational use of these pre-existing facilities without new construction, modification, or expansion. The agreement is administratively justified under a categorical environmental exemption per Cal. Code Regs., Tit. 2, § 2905, Subd. (a)(2), exempting it from formal environmental review due to the minimal impact of continued use. No contract value, pricing, or payment terms are specified, as the arrangement is a non-commercial lease of state-owned infrastructure. Performance is confined to the City’s maintenance and operation of the assets in compliance with lease conditions, with no deliverables beyond sustained use. The California State Lands Commission serves as the approving agency, with Christine Day listed as the primary point of contact and Robin Kim as the City of Redwood City’s representative. No FAR clauses, evaluation factors, special requirements, representations, certifications, or packaging mandates are included, as the instrument is a lease authorization rather than a competitive procurement. There is no identified contracting officer, COR, COTR, or invoicing protocol, and no amendment history or submission instructions are provided, indicating this is an administrative granting of use rights rather than a competitive acquisition process.
