TO:: WILLIAM HUSTON, CITY MANAGER
FROM: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/ENGINEERING DIVISION
~B.tBJECT: APPLICATION FOR FUNDS UNDER THE ORANGE COUNTY ARTERIAL HIGHWAY
~ FINANCING PROGRAM (AHFP) FOR 1988-89 FISCAL YEAR
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council adopt a resolution requesting the County of
Orange to include the improvement of certain streets in the 1988-89 FY
AHFP.
BACKGROUND
Under AHFP, the county provides -50% funding for high priority
improvement projects on the arterial highway system. Applications are
received by December 31 each year for the following fiscal year. The
applications are taken first through a technical review process, next
through a committee of Orange County Division of the League of
California Cities after which a final project list is approved by the
Board of Supervisors.
Recent AHFP projects in the City of Tustin include 17th Street
widening/reconstruction and Red Hill/Walnut right of way acquisition
and widening improvement.
Last August a staff report to the City Council outlined three tentative
projects for 1988-89. To these we have added Jamboree Road through the
MCAS, a project already in progress but short of local funding.
ANALYSIS
The proposed projects to be included in the application, their
estimated cost and proposed funding sources are shown in the attached
matrix and a description of each project follows.
I!. First and Tustin Avenues - This involves widening to general plan
width within existing right-of-way in front of the Revere House
(Tustin) and the Blue Bird Motel (Santa Ana) and widening in front of
the last remaining undedicated parcel on the west side of Tustin (Santa
Aha). Improvements include a new traffic signal with left turn phasing
and channelization to provide double left turn pockets for both
eastbound and southbound traffic. The City of Tustin would be lead
agency with the City of Santa Ana sharing the cost.
2. Yorba Street, First Street to Irvine Boulevard - This involves
acquiring one parcel on the west side of Yorba and six parcels on the
east side. At 133 N. Yorba, it will also be necessary to acquire the
house as the hew property line comes right up to the building and the
entrance will be well above the sidewalk elevation. The occupant would
be entitled to relocation assistance. Improvement consists of widening
both sides to line· up with existing curbs and sidewalks where
previously widened. This will provide for four lanes in this segment
to the general plan width with left turn lanes at First Street and at
I~rvine Boulevard.
3~. Jamboree Road, Barranca Parkway to Edinger Avenue - This project
will provide a new six-lane divided highway on new alignment through
the east side of the USMC Air Station. The right-of-way is being
provided by the U.S. Government in a land swap with The Irvine Company.
The project includes grade separation structures at Moffatt Drive and
Warner Avenue. 'The construction cost is to be shared among the City of
Tustin, the City of Irvine, and The Irvine Company. This general plan
project will provide much needed relief for Red Hill Avenue traffic.
It is proposed .that construction funding be phased over a two-year
period. This request would be for the first year, 1988-89.
4.. Yorba Street, Laurie Lane to Santa Clara Avenue - This improvement
is partly in unincorporated territory and-partly in the City of Tustin.
Two parcels of right-of-way would be acquired in the City portion and
three parcels in the County portion. At the southwest corner of Yorba
and Santa Clara, the existing house would also be acquired as the new
property line will be into the house by two or three feet. The
occupant would be entitled to relocation assistance. The improvement
would provide four lanes within the project limits with left turn
pockets at Santa Clara. There would also be a traffic signal installed
at Yorba and Santa Clara. The City of Tustin would be lead agency with
the County participating in the cost.
CONCLUS ION
A resolution has been prepared for City Council action on December 21.
Staff will complete all remaining application documents and file them
with Orange County EMA no later than December 31.
