CITY OF SAN BERN)'"1IDINO - REQUEST FuR COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT Page 1 of 2 Attempts have been made over the past several years to develop a cooperative project with the County to widen and improve 40th Street, from Kendall Drive to Electric Avenue. These efforts have not been successful, due to the inability to identify the necessary funding sources. Passage of Measure I, approving the 1/2 cent sales tax for street and highway improvements, will provide a potential funding source for this project. We recommend that the project be done in two phases, wi th the first being from Third Avenue to Acre Lane. Listed below is a preliminary estimate of cost for widening this section, broken down between the City and County. Undergrounding Construction Right-of-Way Utilities Total City $501,400 $132,400 $ 96,000 $ 729,800 County $320,600 $597,000 $ 348,000 $ 1,265,600 Totals $822,000 $729,400 $ 444,000 $ 1,995,400 The County area represents 39% of the total, and is located on the north side of the street. However, their share of the total cost is disproportionately larger, since most of the right-of-way to be required is on the north side, and the utility line is on the north side of the street. The estimate for this project includes an amount of $50,000 for preliminary engineering. Based upon the area under jurisdiction of each agency, the County's share would be $19,500.00, and the City's would be $30,500.00. Being "shelf ready" enhances a project's prospects of receiving funds. Therefore, we recommend that approval be granted for allocating $30,500.00 to finance the City's prelim- inary engineering costs. Also, to direct that the County be requested to allocate $19,500.00 for their share and enter into a cooperative agreement. The rehabilitation of the pavement on Waterman Avenue, from Redlands Boulevard to Mill Street, has been delayed pending installation of underground utility facilities. Therefore, we recommend that $30,500 be allocated from the available balance for this proj ect, and replaced in the 1990/91 Street Construction Fund Budget. 3-27-90 ~ITY OF SAN BERN JlDINO - REQUEST F 'R COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT Page 2 of 2 This action will allow the plans and right-of-way plats to be prepared, and an agreement negotiated with the utility companies for undergrounding their facilities. URGENCY CLAUSE: State of readiness will be considered in prioritizing the l/2 cent sales tax funds under the arterial program. Therefore, the sooner we can start work on this project, the better our prospects of receiving funds for construction in the 1990/91 Fiscal Year will be. 3-27-90 75,0264
