Description) widening Street to Match .djoining Sections Finance/4z_ �— .ouncil Notes: 's-0262 Agenda Item No �� CITY OF SAN BERN/ 'DINO - REQUEST Fl 1 COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT An amendment to the San Bernardino Municipal Code was approved on 8-1-91 , by adoption of Ordinance No. MC-796. This amendment authorizes the City, after holding a public hearing, to order a property to widen their street frontage, to match adjoining previously widened sections. In the event that the property owner fails to do the widening within the prescribed time, the City may proceed to have the work done and place an assessment on the property to recover the costs. The action to initiate proceedings was for three properties, but one has completed the widening. This action provides that the costs to accomplish the widenings will be financed by the City, and recovered through assessments placed on the properties over a period of 3 years. Interest will be charged at the rate of 78 per annum on the unpaid balance. Plans for widening the sections on Mill Street and Rialto Avenue have been prepared, and the project is ready to be advertised for bids. Below is an estimate of the total project ,cost: Construction Contract - Mill Street - $ 34,504 Rialto Avenue 22,274 $ 56 ,778 Engineering & Inspection (W.O. #1507) 2, 500 Sub-Total $ 59, 278 Contingencies (158) ± 8,222 TOTAL ESTIMATED PROJECT COST $ 67,500 These estimates are higher than normal, due to the presence of several obstructions, such as street light poles, fire hydrants and catch basin, that must be either removed or relocated in order to accommodate the widening. Very minor amounts of additional rights-of-way will be required at the intersections to accommodate the new curb returns and handicap ramps. Both property owners, National Orange Show and Southern Pacific Railway, have agreed to execute an easement document for these additional rights-of-way. We recommend that the plans be approved and authorization granted to advertise for bids. 5-4-94 s-0264
