SUBJECT: ORCUTT ROAD MEDIAN WATER IMPACT FEE
CAO RECOMMENDATION
1. Transfer $8,259 from the CIP reserve to pay the water impact fee for the median landscaping
project on Orcutt Road near the intersection with Broad Street.
DISCUSSION
A curbed concrete median divider was constructed on Orcutt Road as a condition of approval of
the Parcel Map 99-214 for a private development (Lemburg) at the intersection of Orcutt and
Broad. Construction of the median island and installation of sleeves to accommodate the future
installation of the irrigation service under Orcutt Road were required according to Community
Development Director's Action 99-07 dated November 19, 1999. However, installation of
landscaping of the median was not required as a condition. The final plans show the median
covered with asphalt paving until such time as a later City project would install landscaping.
The Council recently discussed the finished condition of this median and directed staff to
investigate a future project that would provide landscaping.
At the October 7, 2003 Council Meeting, a new CIP project was approved to install landscaping
in the median area. The construction cost estimate was presented to be $12,000, exclusive of the
water impact fee. Staff made a mistake in not listing the water impact fee as a part of the total
project that was approved. Since the meeting, a contractor has been hired to perform the work,
but no water meter can be installed until the water impact fee is paid.
FISCAL 11"ACT
The estimated cost for design and construction of the project is $12,000. The water impact fee is
$8259. Staff recommends f inding'the water impact fee from the CIP reserve, which has a current
balance of$259,100.
