CITY MOR.=
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. ff#*r(9fapproving plans and specifications, authorizing the City Clerk to advertise for bids, and authorizing the transfer funds for the construction of the Cannon Road and Carlsbad Boulevard traffic signal system.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
In the 1987-88 Capital Improvement Program budget, the City Council appropriated funds for the construction of a traffic signal system and roadway improvements to the intersection of Cannon Road and Carlsbad Boulevard. This project includes the installation of a traffic signal system at the intersection and restriping of Carlsbad Boulevard from Cannon Road to Manzano Drive. The new striping plan will provide a painted median as well as reconfiguration of the travel lanes and bike lanes in this area.
Construction is anticipated to require approximately ninety (90) calendar days from the date of the issuance of the Notice to Proceed. Staff recommends approval of the project plans and specifications and requests authorization to proceed to bid the improvements.

FISCAL IMPACT:
Funds in the amount of $750,000 were originally appropriated in the 1987-88 Capital Improvement Program budget (Account No. 300-
820-1840-3270) for this project which was to include the traffic signal system installation as well as adjacent roadway and intersection improvements to ultimate width and configuration. Because adjacent properties, including those of San Diego Gas & Electric along the north east portion of the intersection, have not as yet been fully developed, installation of full width street improvements and ultimate intersection configuration is premature at this time. The intersection does warrant, however, installation of the traffic signal system currently.
In 1988, due to Growth Management requirements, the City Council transferred $650,000 from this project account for the design and construction of Carlsbad Fire Station No. 6 as a permanent facility at its ultimate location along Rancho Santa Fe Road. Because of the uncertainties regarding the timing of the construction of the permanent Rancho Santa Fe Road, the City Council subsequently authorized the construction of a temporary
Page Two of Agenda Bill No. '?7q/
Fire Station No. 6 on Levante Street near La Costa Avenue and Rancho Santa Fe Road. That project is currently under design. A reimbursement agreement with the La Costa Ranch Company has been previously approved by the City Council to finance the design and construction of the temporary Fire Station No. 6 at an estimated cost of $250,000.
Staff recommends, therefore, that the City Council transfer
$100,000 of previously appropriated funding back to the original
Cannon Road and Carlsbad Boulevard project account to enable proceeding with the construction, inspection, and construction management costs required for the traffic signal system installation. A sufficient balance of funds in account number
300-820-1810-3302 is available at this time.
