CITY OF SAN BER~DINO - REQUEST .QR COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT The Waterman Avenue overcrossing over the Southern Pacific Railway was constructed about 25 years ago as a County Federal-Aid Secondary proj ect. A frontage road was constructed by this project along the west side of Waterman Avenue, south of Caroline Street. The purpose of this frontage road was to provide access to a parcel owned by the City of Riverside. This frontage road has worked well up until now. However, traffic is increasing dramatically due to extensive development. / Traffic signals are being installed at the intersection of Waterman Avenue and Caroline Street~ We feel the present design is not appropriate for the current level of traffic, (Isince the intersection of the frontage road with Caroline Street is too close to Waterman Avenue for proper traffic circulation. Therefore, it is our recommendation that the frontage road be vacated to avoid any future traffic circulation problems. Access will still need to be provided to the City of Riverside parcel. A plan of development is being prepared for the parcel west of the frontage road. The prospective developer has agreed to dedicate and improve a clear access driveway, be- tween Caroline Street and the City of Riverside parcel. An easement would be granted to Riverside, in order to insure that they will be able to gain access to their parcel. Water transmission lines are located in the frontage road easement. An easement would be reserved to grant Riverside the right to maintain and operate these lines. The vacation of this frontage road has been discussed with the City of Riverside. They have expressed some concerns, in particular that the frontage road be improved with curbs and gutters. The prospective developer has agreed to install curbs and gutters along the driveway to serve Riverside's parcel. However, it is still possible that they may object to the proposed vacation. A notice of City of Riverside, input. the proposed vacation will be mailed to the to afford them the opportunity to provide Since this will be a City initiated vacation, the normal fee of $400.00 will not be collected. 3-06-89 "'=' ~ ,...
