BACKGROUND:
|
On December 15, 2009, your Board adopted Resolution No. 070583, which approved an updated work plan for spending Proposition 1B Transportation funds allocated in the FY 2007-08 Appropriation. The resurfacing of Barron Avenue, Mac Arthur Avenue, Oakside Avenue, and portions of Fair Oaks Avenue and Northside Avenue is a project in the approved work plan.
|
|
|
On June 19, 2001, your Board adopted Resolution No. 064550, which authorized the Director of Public Works to execute agreements with cities, utility companies and special districts for work less than $50,000 proposed to be done in conjunction with County road projects.
|
|
|
|
|
DISCUSSION:
|
The proposed project, totaling approximately 1.43 miles in length, consists of pavement repair work, installation of pavement reinforcing fabric, construction of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant access ramps, and resurfacing of Barron Avenue, Mac Arthur Avenue, Oakside Avenue, Fair Oaks Avenue from Douglas Avenue to Fifth Avenue, and Northside Avenue from Oakside Avenue to Second Avenue. The City of Redwood City Water Department, the California Water Service Company, and the Fair Oaks Sewer Maintenance District have requested that specific water or sewer work be performed in conjunction with this project. The plans and specifications for the work have now been prepared and staff is recommending that your Board authorize calling for bids for the proposed work.
|
|
|
The allocation of Prop 1B funds to be used for this project must be spent by June 30, 2011.
|
|
|
County Counsel has reviewed and approved the Resolution as to form.

Approval of this action will contribute to the Shared Vision 2025 outcome of a Livable Community by improving our roads for use by the traveling public to support livable connected communities.
