Inter- Com
FROM: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/ENGINEERING DIVISION
SUBJECT: SIDEWALK CONSTRUCTION AT 15602 MOSHER AVENUE
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Tustin City Council approve the request for waiver for
sidewalk construction at 15602 Mosher Avenue subject to the
following:
1. Execution of an irrevocable dedication for
required right-of-way.
2. Execution and recordation of an agreement
to construct sidewalks.
BACKGROUND:
- At the City Council meeting of January 21, 1991, the
tenant/ developer at 15602 Mosher Avenue, GMFanuc Robotics requested
a waiver to the required sidewalk construction at this time. This
waiver proposed four alternatives as follows:
1. If/when future traffic increases to more than 500
vehicles per day, sidewalks will be constructed.
2. Deed the Mosher Avenue and Morgan Circle property to
the City of Tustin for future use.
3. If sidewalks must be put in, allow us to put a
sidewalk on Mosher Avenue only and deed the Morgan
Circle property to the City of Tustin for future use.
4. Construct sidewalks if/when adjacent properties
construct sidewalks.
GMFanuc Robotics has been granted a building permit to proceed with
the building improvements and have scheduled a move -in or occupancy
date of Monday, February 18, 1991.
Staff was directed to return the February 4th City Council meeting
with a plan consisting of one of the four above mentioned
alternatives that would be acceptable to both GMFanuc Robotics and
the City.
DISCUSSION:
The following plan is proposed to ensure the future construction of
sidewalks adjacent to the property a 15602 Mosher Avenue at the
time they are needed and in the interim allow GMFanuc Robotics the
opportunity to proceed with their building improvements and
scheduled occupancy date of February 18, 1991:
1. Property owner shall execute an irrevocable offer of
dedication for the required right-of-way along both
Mosher Avenue and Morgan Circle frontages of the
subject property, for purpose of sidewalk construction
prior to the date of occupancy.
2. Execution and recordation of an agreement to
construct the required sidewalks by GMFanuc Robotics
and the property owner. Agreement to contain a
termination clause that would no longer require
sidewalk construction after the date that GMFanuc
Robotics no longer occupies the premises under their
current or future leases.
3. Construction of sidewalks adjacent to 15602 Mosher
Avenue would be implemented only if any of the
following should occur:
a. Sidewalks are constructed on at least 50% of
the remaining portion of Mosher Avenue between
Valencia Avenue and Bell Avenue.
b. Substantial increase in pedestrian activity
utilizing the travel roadway of Mosher Avenue
between Valencia Avenue and Bell Avenue.
