RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE the Pacheco Boulevard Sidewalk Gap Closure Phase III Project (Project) and AUTHORIZE the Interim Public Works Director, or designee, to advertise the Project, Martinez area. [County Project No. 0662-6U4008, DCD-CP#16-04] (District V).


DETERMINE the Project is a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Class 1(c) Categorical Exemption, pursuant to Article 19, Section 15301(c) of the CEQA Guidelines, and

RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)

DIRECT the Director of Department of Conservation and Development to file a Notice of Exemption with the County Clerk, and

AUTHORIZE the Interim Public Works Director, or designee, to arrange for payment of a $25 fee to the Department of Conservation and Development for processing, and a $50 fee to the County Clerk for filing the Notice of Exemption.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Project cost estimate is $1,260,000. Funding: 48.5% Active Transportation Program Funds, 44.7% Measure C Funds, and 6.8% Martinez Area of Benefit (AOB) Funds.

BACKGROUND:

The purpose of this Project is to install pedestrian infrastructure that will close two short gaps in the sidewalk along Pacheco Boulevard east of Las Juntas Elementary School. The first sidewalk gap (Site 1) is approximately 70 feet long and is located at the Vine Hill Creek crossing. The second sidewalk gap (Site 2) is approximately 65 feet long and located at 4305 Pacheco Boulevard, 150 feet east of Vine Hill Creek. The proposed improvements will provide an Americans with Disabilities Act accessible sidewalk and increase the roadway shoulder width to accommodate a Class II bike lane and parking.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without the Board of Supervisors approval, the project may result in a delay of design and construction, and may jeopardize funding.
