DISCUSSION <br /> This project was part of the required mitigations identified in the Staples Ranch EIR and <br /> improves the pedestrian and vehicular circulation at the intersection of Santa Rita and <br /> Stoneridge Drive. <br /> Hacienda Business Park and Santa Rita Office Center requested enhancements to the <br /> landscaping at the intersection (landscape restoration was required per the construction <br /> contract). The City agreed to contribute a portion of the restoration amount to have the <br /> private property owners' contractor perform the enhanced landscaping in lieu of the City <br /> contractor performing all restoration work. The work is currently being completed by the <br /> private property owners and invoices will be submitted for reimbursement once the work <br /> is completed. The amount of $4,000 is being held to cover the costs of this <br /> reimbursement. <br /> Change orders issued resulted in an increase of $38,680.74 over the base bid amount <br /> of $1,025,523.40. The majority of the contract change orders were associated with <br /> improvements requested around the bus stops to provide additional access. There <br /> were also some unforeseen conditions discovered during construction. <br /> This project was funded entirely out of various "non-city' sources, including funding from <br /> the Alameda County Surplus Property Authority (ACSPA) paid to the City to offset the <br /> cost of Staples Ranch traffic mitigations, from the City of Livermore paid to offset the <br /> cost of El Charro Road freeway interchange improvements, from Staples Ranch <br /> development fees, and from Traffic Development Fees earmarked for the bus shelter <br /> turnout. A detail of project funding is included in Attachment 1. <br /> Staff intends to use up to $32,000 from the $612,527 fund balance for design services <br /> related to gateway signage anticipated for the north and south sides of Stoneridge Drive <br /> at El Charro Road. The signage will be installed and paid for by the developers of the <br /> associated Staples Ranch retail and auto mall sites. The Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan <br /> Fee Reserve is intended to be utilized for related Specific Plan improvement projects <br /> including improvements to the Staples Ranch Community Park site, Stoneridge Creek <br /> Neighborhood Park, freeway interchange improvements, trails, etc. <br /> Submitted by: Fiscal Review: Approve by: <br /> -6-04.1/ ittfrt (Wye,/ <br /> B <br /> Bnan DolN Emily Wagner Nelson Fialho <br /> Director of Director of Finance City Manager <br /> Community Development <br /> Attachments: <br /> 1.
