SUBJECT: REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF DOMESTIC WATER AND
RECLAIMED WATER FACILITIES WITHIN ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 86-2
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Tustin City Council approve and authorize the Mayor to execute
the reimbursement agreement between Irvine Ranch Water District and the
City of Tustin for the construction of domestic water and reclaimed water
facilities within Assessment District No. 86-2.
BACKGROUND:
The City is in the process of constructing certain infrastructure
improvements with the boundaries of Assessment District No. 86-2 which
are funded by monies from the Assessment District BOnd Sale. Irvine
Ranch Water District (IRWD) is also required to install certain domestic
._water and reclaimed water facilities within the same area which are not
'unded by Assessment District No. 86-2 monies.
As in past projects throughout the Tustin Ranch development, IRWD is
requesting that the City include their work for both domestic and
reclaimed water main 'installations with the City Assessment District
contracts. This method has worked successfully on past projects and
results in a benefit to both agencies by minimizing the efforts required
for coordinating two major construction contracts in the field.
The work to be included within the City's contract will include the
installation of a 12" domestic water main and 10", 8" and 6" reclaimed
water mains in Tustin Ranch Road, and a 6" reclaimed water main in
Portola Parkway between Tustin Ranch Road and Jamboree Road.
DISCUSSION:
The attached reimbursement agreement provides the vehicle for IRWD to
reimburse the City of Tustin for monies expended to install the
above-mentioned domestic and reclaimed water mains.
The City Attorney's office has reviewed and approved this agreement. It
is requested that the City Council approve and authorize the Mayor to
execute said reimbursement agreement.
