Description: Gas Tax Fund Finance: Council Notes Agenda Item No. CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT Subject: Authorization for the Director of Finance to amend the FY 07/08 Budget in the amount of $31,200 for work completed under terms of Agreement approved by Resolution No. 2005-270 (Frank R. Cortez and Irene D. Cortez). Background: On August 1, 2005, the Mayor and Common Council adopted Resolution No. 2005-270 approving an agreement with Frank R. Cortez and Irene D. Cortez, relating to a single-family house located at the northeast corner of Waterman Avenue and 30th Street. As originally constructed, the house took access via two driveways, one on Waterman Avenue and one on 30th Street. Both driveways were very close to the northeast corner of this very busy intersection and were not consistent with the City's policy of not allowing driveways from single family houses to access directly onto major arterial highways. In the interest of public safety, an agreement was approved with Frank R. Cortez and Irene D. Cortez to close the driveways on Waterman Avenue and 30th Street and construct a new garage and driveway facing Broadmoor Boulevard. Under terms of the agreement, the City would remove the driveways on Waterman Avenue and 30th Street, construct ADA improvements at the northeast corner of the intersection, construct a sidewalk along the north side of 30th Street and construct a decorative block wall along the north side of 30th Street adjacent to the property. In exchange, the owners were required to dedicate 6 feet of right-of-way for a sidewalk along the north side of 30th Street and to construct a new garage and driveway facing Broadmoor Boulevard. The City agreed to reimburse the owners an amount up to $48,200 for the cost of relocation, which included $17,000, which had previously been paid upon execution of the easement deed dedicating the 6 feet of additional right-of-way along the north side of 30th Street adjacent to the property. The work required of the City was completed in 2006 and the property owners started work on the new garage in March of 2007. The work on the new garage was completed and the Building Division on August 7, 2007 made a final inspection and acceptance. Mr. Cortez has submitted a request for reimbursement in the amount of $31,200 that is the balance of the amount authorized for payment upon completion and acceptance of work on the new garage. Mr. Cortez has submitted receipts totaling in excess of$31,200 and executed an affidavit on October 11, 2007, (see attached copy) attesting that he has paid more than $31,200 for labor and materials to service providers for construction of the new garage and driveway. Therefore, staff recommends that Frank R. Cortez and Irene D. Cortez be reimbursed in the amount of$31,200. 2 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO — REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT - Continued Financial Impact: It is recommended that the FY 07/08 Budget be amended by transferring $16,000 from Account No. 126-369-5504-7233 "SS-A Bridge and Railing Repairs at Various Locations (Annual)" and $15,200 from Account No. 126-369-5504-7360 "SS-E Miscellaneous Infrastructure Repairs (Annual)" to Account No. 126-369-5504-7503 "SS05-04 Broadmoor Boulevard/301n Street/Waterman Avenue Safety Sidewalk, ADA and Wall." Upon completion of the transfer, sufficient funds will be available to reimburse Mr. and Mrs. Cortez under terms of the agreement. The transfer of funds from Project Nos. SS-A and SS-E will not affect any specific work currently underway or planned.
