AGENDA REPORT Agenda Item 9 Reviewed: ~~ ' City Manager Finance Director _~ MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 2, 2010 TO: WILLIAM A. HUSTON, CITY MANAGER FROM: DOUGLAS S. STACK, ACTING DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS/CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT NO. D09-115 WITH THE COUNTY OF ORANGE FOR THE NEWPORT AVENUE PAVEMENT REHABILITATION PROJECT AND ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 10-16 DECLARING A PORTION OF NEWPORT AVENUE LOCATED WITHIN THE CITY TO BE A COUNTY HIGHWAY FOR PURPOSES OF CONSTRUCTION SUMMARY In order for the County of Orange to proceed with its pavement rehabilitation project on Newport Avenue within the City of Tustin, Cooperative Agreement No. D09-115 must be approved and that portion of Newport Avenue be declared a County highway for purposes of construction. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve Cooperative Agreement No. D09-115 with the County of Orange for the Newport Avenue Pavement Rehabilitation Project and adopt Resolution No. 10-16, declaring southbound Newport Avenue from Wass Street to 1750 feet northerly within the City of Tustin to be a County highway for purposes of roadway improvements during the period of project construction, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the documents on behalf of the City. FISCAL IMPACT Under Cooperative Agreement No. D09-115 the City will reimburse the County for the cost of performing the street improvement construction work under City jurisdiction and adjustment of water valve lids to grade within County jurisdiction in the estimated amount of $120,230. The street improvement resurfacing cost is estimated at $95,310 and the estimated cost to adjust water valve lids is $24,920. The exact amount will be determined when construction is complete. Since the County will not require payment until early in fiscal year 2010/2011, the City's portion of funding will be programmed in the FY 2010/2011 Annual Major Pavement Maintenance Program and Water Operations, respectively. DISCUSSION The County of Orange is moving ahead with its project to rehabilitate Newport Avenue from Wass Street to Hyde Park Drive, with a small portion of the roadway lying within City of Tustin jurisdiction. The project also includes the adjustment of City of Tustin Water Services valve lids to grade along the full length of the County's project outside of the City of Tustin limits but within the Tustin Water Services boundary. Cooperative Agreement No. D09-115 has been prepared wherein work will be performed by the County and the County will be reimbursed by the City. In order for the County to work within the City's jurisdiction, the California Streets and Highways Code requires that the roadway within the City be declared a County highway during the period of construction. Upon completion of the improvements, the County will pass a resolution declaring the City's project area to no longer be a County highway.
