McCluskey, Director of Public Worksf/ Prepared By: Jerry Kenny, Supervising Civil Engineer SUBJECT: Right of Way Acquisition for the Orcutt Road Widening roject CAO RECOMMENDATION: 1) approve the agreement with Gloria Morgan to acquire right of way adjacent to 800 Orcutt Road 2) authorize the Mayor to execute the agreement DISCUSSION: One of the approved capital improvement projects included in the 1995 -97 Financial Plan provides for widening the north side of Orcutt Road between Broad Street and the Southern Pacific tracks by acquiring right of way and constructing curb, gutter, sidewakc, and paving. Staff has negotiated an agreement with the owner's agent of 800 Orcutt Road (NE comer at McMillan Ave.) to acquire needed right of way (22 feet wide by 70 feet long) for the widening in accordance with the adopted setback line map. Similar to a recent agreement with the adjacent easterly property owner (Ahrens), instead of a cash payment for this right of way, the agreement requires the City to be responsible for construction of curb, gutter, sidewalk, a driveway ramp, paving, a fireline and relocation of an existing water service which serves the property. Staff has determined that the cost of specified improvements is about equal to the land value. Dedicating right of way where setback lines have been established such as Orcutt Rd., is typically a development requirement. However, there are no apparent plans to develop the subject parcel in the near finure, but there is a recognized public need for both pedestrian and vehicle circulation improvements. This right of way will complete the acquisition of needed R/W to allow for construction of a left -turn pocket at this corner to relieve current traffic congestion along the Orcutt Road corridor in adition to the above -noted "sidewalk" project. CONCURRENCES: The City Attorney and Finance Director concur with the recommended action. FISCAL IMPACT: Appropriation in the 1995 -97 Financial Plan for R/W acquisition .......................$ 70,000.00 (See pages E -7 and E -22). The estimated cost of improvements required by this agreement is ..................... $ 17,000.00 Prior allocation under the Ahrens agreement ............... ............................... 35.000.00 Total of allocations ............................................ ............................... 52,000.00 Balance in acquisition fund ................................... ............................... 18,000.00 d4 - Council Agenda Report (Martella) Meeting of January 7, 1997 Page Two Since this agreement provides for actuall y installing improvements "in lieu of a cash payment", it effectively is the "cost of acquisition". Therefore, these funds should be transferred into the construction phase of the project: Staff will process a separate.fimd transfer action to provide for this. ALTERNATIVES: Optibn 1': Deny approval of the agreement if the Council is not satisfied with the tents of the agreement. Attachments: - - 1) agreement (incl. Map) 2) setback line map (portion) G:cpsr%ftrAAc\m�ua= RECORDING REQUESTED BY: City Clerk WHEN RECORDED MAIL TO: City Clerk 990 Palm Street San Luis Obispo, CA 93401 APN 053 - 202 -009 AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT, executed this day of 1996, by and between (910e/G- MOt -alp hereinafter called "GRANTOR ", and the CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO, hereinafter called "CITY ", includes the following provisions in its entirety: 1.
