ENG WITHIN THE CITY OF CARLSBAD, RANCHO SANTA FE ROAD 16,978 REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY ATTY. @ - CITY MGR. t( Adopt Resolution No. 2002-338 approving and authorizing execution of agreement for construction costs for a portion of Rancho Santa Fe Road realignment and widening, Phase 1, Project No. 3190, with MAG Properties, a General Partnership. ITEM EXPLANATION: The Rancho Santa Fe Road project consists of the widening and realignment of approximately 2.2 miles of Rancho Santa Fe Road from La Costa Avenue to Melrose Drive. The project will be constructed in two phases: Phase 1, from La Costa Avenue to San Elijo Road; and Phase 2, from San Elijo Road to Melrose Drive. Rancho Santa Fe Road is identified in the General Plan as a prime arterial. Improving the road to meet prime arterial standards is necessary at this time to meet Growth Management Standards for the southeast area of Carlsbad. Improvements include widening the road from two lanes to six lanes, realigning the road generally to the east, and replacing the bridge structure at the San Marcos Creek crossing. Benefits of the project include reduced congestion, improved traffic flow, and increased safety for travelers on the road. Additionally, this project will improve a vital link in the North County region’s roadway network. The project will be constructed in two Phases. Phase 1 includes widening and realigning approximately 1.75 miles from La Costa Avenue to San Elijo Road. Morrow Development has graded a portion of Rancho Santa Fe Road in association with the grading of the Villages of La Costa Oaks South Project and constructed most of the storm drain facilities within the area of the road it graded. The plans and construction documents for Phase 1 will complete the remainder of the roadway project. Council authorized the advertisement for bids for the Rancho Santa Fe Road Phase 1 project on September IO, 2002. Per the Rancho Santa Fe Road finance plan, MAG Properties is responsible for certain roadway improvements that front their property. These improvements include paving of the outside lanes and outside curbs and gutters. Both the City and MAG Properties agree that construction of these improvements with the Rancho Santa Fe Road, Phase 1 project will be more economical and opportune for both parties. The City has the authority to initiate construction for this part of the roadway since it will benefit the public at the time it is built, and is required in the future when MAG Properties develops their property. This agreement establishes the framework for MAG Properties to reimburse the City for the portions of Rancho Santa Fe Road, Phase 1 construction that is their responsibility per the Rancho Santa Fe Road finance plan. FISCAL IMPACT: The estimated costs for the construction of Rancho Santa Fe Road is summarized below: Page 2 of Agenda Bill No. 16 r 978 Funding for Rancho Santa Fe Road is summarized below: MAG will reimburse the City an estimated $410,797. This amount is identified as a funding source in the table above as a portion of the Phase 1 “Other Agencies” contribution. Reimbursement by MAG will take place at the time of issuance of the first building permit on the MAG Property. There are sufficient CFD #2 funds available for MAG Property road improvements. ENVIRONMENTAL: The City Council at their meeting on June 2, 1992 passed Resolution No. 92-1 52 certifying EIR No. 91-1 for both Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the Rancho Santa Fe Road project. The City Council at their meeting on April 25, 2000 passed Resolution No. 2000-128 approving Addendum No. 2 to the final EIR No. 91-1 for Rancho Santa Fe Road. This EIR covers the realignment and widening of Rancho Santa Fe Road from La Costa Avenue to Melrose Drive. All permit and mitigation requirements have been met. Per the Habitat Conservation Plan, a qualified biologist has been retained to monitor the adjacent habitat during construction. Per the requirements of the California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) 1601 permit, a habitat mitigation plan is being prepared based on the conceptual plan approved by CDFG and will be implemented concurrent with construction.
