APPROVAL OF AN AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF IRVINE FOR
APPORTIONED COSTS AT SHARED SIGNALIZED INTERSECTION LOCATIONS
This Agreement will prOvide for appOrtioned costs of maintenance and oPeration of traffic signals and
intersection lighting at shared intersection locations with the CitY of Irvine.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute an Agreement with
the CitY of Irvine for apportioned costs of maintenance and operation of traffic signals and intersection
lighting at shared intersection locations.
FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient funds have been appropriated in the Engineering Division's Operation Budget for Fiscal Year
1998-99 to fund Tustin's share of costs for operation and maintenance of traffic signal systems at shared
locations.
BACKGROUND
The CitY of Tustin currently has agreements with the County of Orange and the CitY of Santa Ana for
apportioned costs of operation and maintenance of traffic signal systems at shared intersection locations.
One Agency at a shared intersection assumes responsibilitY for operation and maintenance of the traffic
signal system. However, apportioned costs are based upon the number of intersection legs Mthin the
affected Agency.
In July 1997, the CitY oflrvine annexed property from the CountY of Orange east of Jamboree Road as part
of the Lower Peters Canyon Development Project. As part of the annexation, responsibilitY for traffic
signal systems at shared intersections between Tustin and the County of Orange became the responsibility
of the City of Irvine. This necessitates the subject agreement between Tustin and Irvine.
DISCUSSION
There are currently eleven (11) Signalized intersection locations where the City of Tustin and the City of
Irvine have interjurisdictional responSibility for the maintenance and operation of traffic signal systems.
The attached Exhibit A identifies these locations and provides the division of costs among the cities.
This Agreement will provide for recovery of costs from Irvine at shared intersection locations where
Tustin assumes responsibility for operation and maintenance of traffic signal systems. It will also result
in payment of Tustin's fair share of costs at intersection locations where the CitY of Irvine assumes
responsibility.
