SUBJECT:
Submittal of Plans and Specifications for "Bridge Replacement Project -
Toro Street at San Luis Obispo Creek, City Plan No. J-07H. "
CAO RECOMMENDATION:
By Motion Approve Plans and Specifications and Authorize Staff to Advertise
for Bids.
DISCUSSION:
Toro Street Bridge was originally constructed in 1910, and is considered by
State bridge inspectors to be in poor condition and a "functionally obsolete
structure. " As a result of the above classification and the structure's level
of deterioration, poor alignment, narrowness, non-standard features and safety
considerations, the City is eligible to receive Federal Bridge Replacement and
Rehabilitation Funds (HERR) to replace the existing deficient bridge. In
addition, priority no. 3 of "Points of Restricted Capacity--Four Major Creeks"
of the Flood Management Policy adopted by City Council in June 1983 also
recommended removal or replacement of the bridge because of its restricted
hydraulic capacity. The proposed replacement project consists of removing the
existing concrete bridge structure and abutments and constructing a new
reinforced concrete bridge and abutment wingwalls. The new structure will be
built to current State and Federal standards, with thirty-foot wide roadway and
six-foot sidewalk, a longer span, and significantly improved alignment to
increase the hydraulic capacity, traffic flow, and safety.
On June 7, 1988, Council adopted Resolution No. 6445 approving Program
Supplement No. 9 to the City/State Master Agreement No. 05-5016 for Federal-Aid
Projects. This supplement designated the Federal funds that have been
allocated and the matching funds to be provided by the City for this project,
and that the City is responsible to advertise, award and administer this
project upon approval of the plans and specifications by the state.
On December 5, 1988, after a lengthy review process, Caltrans approved the
plans and specifications and authorized the City to advertise the project,
subject to City certification. This certificatiun process is a mandatory
requirement which will allow the City to advertise, award, and administer the
construction of this project.
CONCURRENCES:
The Community Development Department has determined that this project has a
categorical exemption from further environmental evaluation. The project has
also been signed off by the FHWA as a categorical exclusion project under the
National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA).

capacity of the existing bridge will remain and the deterioration will
continue.
2. City will lose the Federal HBRR Funds which have been allocated for
this project.
3. City will not be reimbursed for Engineering staff costs which have
been incurred to date.
