estimated fair share cost of the design and construction of intersection improvements on
Palomar Airport Road at Melrose Drive. The reimbursement agreement is to allow the City to refund or
collect additional monies if the actual costs differ from the estimated costs for this portion of
intersection improvements.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

requirements of CEQA pursuant to Section 15268 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The reimbursement agreement allows a project to pay its proportionate share of an impacted
intersection or roadway, relieving financial strain on City funds. Impacts relating to the reimbursement
agreement (auditing and accounting) shall be included in the proportionate share calculations for the
specific improvement project.
