(Photo by Jeff Gritchen, Orange County Register\/SCNG)\n<\/div><span>Expand<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<p>While a group of the Rhone Lane homeowners filed a lawsuit, more than a dozen signed settlement agreements in December 2023 with the sanitation district for it to access the pipeline and do work on it.<\/p>\n<p>Construction has occurred behind seven homes since March 1, sanitation district officials said. The Miller-Holder Rhone Lane Sewer Easement Cleanup project, currently in its second phase, is expected to wrap up before the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>In her recent ruling, Servino wrote that the sanitation district had failed to show that the backyard \u201cstructures, improvements or other objects and organic matter\u201d on the Rhone Lane properties are interfering\u201d with OC San\u2019s \u201cfull use and enjoyment of the easements.\u201d The ruling also gave residents permission to file a complaint against the city of Huntington Beach for failing to sufficiently inform them about the easement when it issued building permits for their pools years, if not decades, earlier. A trial date was set for March 2027.<\/p>\n<p>The sewer line was installed in 1959 when much of Huntington Beach was farmland. The 6-foot pipe, which transports 10 million gallons of wastewater a day, is nearing the end of its life and needs to be rehabilitated and eventually replaced, OC San officials said.<\/p>\n<p>Frank Clarke bought his home on Rhone Lane in 1971, when much of the area was open fields, he said. Soon after, he spent $5,000 installing a pool that three generations of his family have swum in.<\/p>\n<p>Clarke, 81, is among the more than a dozen homeowners who filed the class action lawsuit against the sanitation district to prevent construction work on their backyards. He said he doesn\u2019t understand why the special district is in such a hurry to clean up the pipeline now, given that the structure has not malfunctioned in the past six decades.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cIf it ain\u2019t broke, leave it alone,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer Cabral, an administration manager with OC San, said the district has continued construction within the easement in coordination with the 13 property owners who previously signed the settlement agreements. The agreement allows the sanitation district to remove backyard amenities, including pools and fences, built on top of the easement so that crews can more easily access the pipeline, she said. The special district is covering demolition costs.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=4844\">Angels\u2019 Zach Neto admits he\u2019s making too many mental mistakes<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cOC San remains focused on ensuring safe, reliable access to critical regional wastewater infrastructure that protects public health, the environment and the communities we serve,\u201d she said in a statement about the ruling. \u201cThe ongoing legal process will continue through the appropriate channels and does not impact current easement cleanup and maintenance activities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ted Beresford said construction workers showed up at his Rhone Lane home in early March and tore up more than a third of his backyard, arguing the work was done without a proper permit. As they removed his pool, he said the house shook so violently that the impact could have registered on an earthquake meter.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Beresford bought the house in 2024, after the previous owner signed the settlement that allowed the sanitation district to access the easement and, if need be, remove the pool. Though he was aware of the agreement when he closed on the property, Beresford said he didn\u2019t expect the demolition to be so extensive. After the backyard was torn up, he estimated that his property value dropped from $1.2 million to about $950,000. Installing a new pool would cost around $20,000, he said, and the district isn\u2019t covering any of that.<\/p>\n<p>Beresford said OC San\u2019s interpretation of easement veered into ownership.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTypically, if you have an easement, it means if that, \u2018I need to get back there, you need to let me in,\u2019 \u201d he said. \u201cIn this instance, OC San is taking land.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cabral said the permit issue with Beresford\u2019s property is the result of a misunderstanding between the special district and the city of Huntington Beach. OC San had acquired a \u201ccombination permit\u201d for the pool demolition and the construction of the block wall, she said, without realizing that a separate permit was needed for the pool. With regard to the demolition, Cabral said the previous owner had already granted OC San permission to access the backyard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMr. Beresford purchased the property with the understanding there\u2019s a signed agreement and that work would be starting,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Cabral also pushed back on the homeowners\u2019 argument that the pipeline should be left alone just because it has not yet burst.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese pipelines don\u2019t last forever,\u201d Cabral said. \u201cWe\u2019re fortunate it\u2019s in stable condition, but we can\u2019t wait for it to break in order to fix it.\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=4842\">Ducks keep gaining playoff experience, growing together<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Backyard upgrades including pools have already been removed in some yards for the work on the 6-foot pipe, which transports 10 million gallons of wastewater a day.
