RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE the Rio Vista Elementary School Pedestrian Connection Project and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to advertise the Project, Bay Point area.
(Project No. 0662-6R4141) (District V)

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Project will be funded by 76% Active Transportation Program-Safe Routes to School Funds and 24% Local Road Funds.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Delay in approving the Project will result in a delay of construction and will jeopardize the funding.

BACKGROUND:

The purpose of this Project is to provide pedestrian facilities along a segment of Pacifica Avenue, which students at Rio Vista Elementary School, Shore Acres Elementary School and Riverview Middle School use to walk to and from the school sites. The project will extend the distance of sidewalk along Pacifica Avenue, provide improved access for the mobility impaired and provide paved area for bicyclists. Overall, the project will improve the surrounding neighborhood. The project will provide 525 linear feet of 5-foot-wide sidewalk, curb, gutter, driveways, driveway conforms, storm drain improvements and a 5-foot-wide bike lane on the north side of Pacifica Avenue, from Mariners Cove Drive to 525 feet west.

On October 6, 2015, the Board approved the Project as a Categorical Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Class 1(c) Categorical Exemption, pursuant to Article 19, Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines.
