RECOMMENDATION:
It the Tustin City Council is desirous of proceeding with the widening of the
northerly side of Seventeenth St. between the Costa Mesa Freeway and Prospect
Ave. (north) during the 1984-85 fiscal year, it is recommended that they
appropriate $8,500.00 within the 1983-84 fiscal year for consultant services
consisting of field survey and real estate appraisal.
BACKGROUND:
I~e City Council has requested that the widening of Seventeenth St. along the
northerly side between the Costa Mesa Freeway. and Prospect Ave. {north) be
included within the 1984-85 Capital Improvement Program, This widening project
would qualify'as an Arterial Highway Financing Program {A.H.F.P.) project. The
A.H.F.P. projects are cooperative projects between the County of Orange and the
local agency wherein each agency shares the cost on a 50%-50% basis. At this
time, there is no estimated cost for this project.
DISCUSSION:
By December 31st of each year, the County of Orange solicits applications from all
Orange County cities for A.H.F.P. projects for the following fiscal year. These
applications require the following:
1. Environmental documentation consisting of either a Negative Declaration
or an Environmental Impact Report.
e
Preparation of preliminary drawings to determine an accurate cost
estimate for the project. This will require a complete field survey of
the project.
3. Appraisal of the land value to be acquired for the widening. This will
require the services of a real estate appraiser.
The Engineering Division does not have the manpower to accomplish this work along
with the other scheduled work prior to December 31, 1983. Consequently, it is
suggested that a consultant(s) be retained to perform the following work:
Field Survey
Land Appraisal
Total Estimated Costs
ESTIMATED COST
$6,000.00
2,500.00
