RECOMMENDATION(S):

ACCEPT the Quitclaim Deed dated December 9, 2015, from the State Route 4 Bypass Authority conveying real property to Contra Costa County for: Vasco Road between Marsh Creek Road and Walnut Boulevard; Marsh Creek Road realignment at State Highway 4 and Vasco Road; and the widened portions of: Marsh Creek Road, Walnut Boulevard, Sellers Avenue, Byron Highway and Vasco Road, and DECLARE that Vasco Road between Marsh Creek Road and Walnut Boulevard, and Marsh Creek Road realignment at State Highway 4 and Vasco Road are County roads, as recommended by the Public Works Director, Brentwood area.


DIRECT the Public Works Department to have the above-referenced Quitclaim Deed recorded in the office of the County Recorder.

RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

The State Route 4 Bypass Authority (Authority) and Contra Costa County (County) have been working collaboratively for the past two decades on delivering the SR4 Bypass and ensuring the implementation of the SR4 Bypass is consistent with the County’s planning and development. As part of this effort, the Authority acquired the parcels identified in the attached Exhibit “A,” for Segment 3 of the SR4 Bypass.

In 2015 the Authority conveyed the SR4 Bypass to the State of California. These parcels were not needed by the State but are part of the local road network. Since the County requires the parcels for Vasco Road between Marsh Creek Road and Walnut Boulevard; Marsh Creek Road realignment at State Highway 4 and Vasco Road; and the widened portions of Marsh Creek Road, Walnut Boulevard, Sellers Avenue, Byron Highway and Vasco Road, the Authority is conveying these excess parcels to the County.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The County will not have the necessary rights to receive funds to maintain these roads.
