ITEM EXPLANATION: In the fall of 2002, the City was requested to investigate the possibility of adding ALL-WAY STOP control or a traffic signal to the intersection of Camino De Los Coches and Calle Acervo, primarily due to the high school traffic volumes on Camino De Los Coches. The necessary studies were conducted by staff. None of the warrants for an ALL-WAY STOP were satisfied. However, two of the eleven Caltrans traffic signal warrants were met and staff submitted a request for the construction of a traffic signal at Camino De Los Coches and Calle Acervo to be included in the 2003/2004 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The 2003/2004 Capital Improvement Program was adopted by City Council on June 17, 2003 and funding for this project is available in the General Capital Construction fund. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: This project is a Class 1 categorical exemption (minor alteration of existing structure or facilities) and is, therefore, exempt from the environmental review process under provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Section 15301Q. A Notice of Exemption will be issued by the Planning Director after this Authorization to Advertise is approved. FISCAL IMPACT: The funds needed to complete the project are $1 85,890. The project cost breakdown is as follows: Total Project Cost $1 85,890 Total Amount Appropriated for this Project $1 90,000 There are sufficient funds appropriated in the General Capital Construction fund to complete this traffic signal project.
