RECOMMENDATION(S):

Acting as the Governing Board to the Successor Agency for the Contra Costa County Redevelopment Agency, ADOPT Resolution 2012/490 authorizing the Successor Agency to execute a Second Amendment to the Public Improvements Agreement for the Rodeo Marina Sewer Expansion Project with the Rodeo Sanitary District, increasing the payment limit by $175,000 from $1,559,000 to a new payment limit of $1,734,000, and extending the amended termination date of January 31, 2013 to a new termination date of December 31, 2013.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No impact to the General Fund. $1,559,000 in bond funds have been budgeted and approved for this project. The additional $175,000 would be requested from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund for the January - June 2013 period through a separate action by the Successor Agency and subject to approval by the Successor Agency's Oversight Board and the state Department of Finance. The Second Amendment does not go into effect until these approvals have been obtained.

BACKGROUND:

On December 14, 2010, the former Contra Costa County Redevelopment Agency (Dissolved RDA) entered into a Public Improvements Agreement for the Rodeo Marina Sewer Expansion Project (Public Improvements Agreement), which is attached as Exhibit A. This agreement authorized funding for the design and construction of sanitary sewer improvements to the Rodeo Marina/Waterfront. These public improvements are expected to lead to the renovation and expansion of the Marina, thereby stimulating and expanding the existing uses at the waterfront, including re-opening of the commercial restaurant located at the site.

On May 15, 2012, the Board of Supervisors, acting as the Successor Agency to the Dissolved RDA, approved the first amendment to the Public Improvements Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit B. This amendment provided the Rodeo Sanitary District with the necessary funds to complete design and construction of the sanitary sewer line. The first amendment increased the project scope to include engineering services during construction, Bay Conservation and Development Commission permits, manhole relocations, easement acquisition, construction management, enhanced shoring for open cuts, Local Agency Formation Commission review, and sewer connection fees.

On November 1, 2012, the Successor Agency received a request from the Rodeo Sanitary District for a second amendment to the Public Improvements Agreement. A copy of that request is attached as Exhibit C. A second amendment to the Public Improvements Agreement will cover increased design and construction costs resulting from the discovery of bedrock conditions while extending the sewer line. This amendment also extends the contract termination date to December 31, 2013. A copy of this second amendment is attached as Exhibit D.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If the second amendment to the Public Improvements Agreement is not approved, the construction project will not be completed. Blighted conditions at the waterfront will remain and an existing health and safety condition associated with inadequate sanitary sewer facilities will continue.
