budgeting for the JDEDZ Project implementation, is discussed later in this agenda <br /> report. <br /> Right-of-Way <br /> The 2018 Agreement requires the City to pay full upfront costs to acquire the land <br /> necessary to construct the traffic mitigation measures from property owners along <br /> Johnson Drive and Stoneridge Drive. Costco is required to grant the land needed from <br /> its property to construct the traffic mitigation measures at no cost to the City. Costco is <br /> to reimburse the City half the cost of the right-of-way needed for JDEDZ Street <br /> Improvements, and in turn, add the amount reimbursed to the loan at the completion of <br /> the project. However, the loan amount for the JDEDZ Street Improvements is interest- <br /> free. <br /> The land needed to construct the traffic mitigation measures consists of the right-of-way <br /> and permanent easements, as well as temporary construction easements beyond the <br /> work area that are needed to perform the work. The temporary construction easement <br /> areas will be restored to pre-project conditions and the temporary construction <br /> easements will expire when the project is complete. Excluding the right-of-way and <br /> easements needed from Costco, land is required from nine properties to complete the <br /> project. Associated Right of Way Services (ARWS) assisted city staff with the land <br /> acquisition process. Each property was appraised and offers made. Attachment 5 is a <br /> graphic showing all land needed to construct the JDEDZ traffic mitigation measures. <br /> Staff has successfully negotiated purchase agreements with seven of the nine affected <br /> property owners and remains hopeful that the two property owners yet to enter a <br /> purchase agreement will do so soon. The two properties without purchase agreements <br /> are at the north end of Johnson Drive within the JDEDZ Project area. Both are located <br /> where the existing eastside Johnson Drive curb line remains in its current location as <br /> the road is not being widened adjacent to these properties. The land needed from these <br /> two properties is an 11-foot surface easement to allow the construction of a six-foot <br /> sidewalk and a five-foot-wide landscaped parkway between the sidewalk and the <br /> roadway. The goal is to acquire the surface easements and construct the sidewalk and <br /> landscaping along these two property frontages, so these features are constructed <br /> along the entire JDEDZ Project length of Johnson Drive. However, there is a 13-foot- <br /> wide public service easement (PSE) dedicated to the city that is underlying the desired <br /> surface easement. The PSE will allow all other work planned, including electrical <br /> conduit, electrical service boxes, streetlights, irrigation pipes, etc. Since the sidewalk <br /> and landscaping will be toward the end of the construction, time remains to complete <br /> the purchase agreements and staff will continue that effort. <br /> Attachment 7 lists the properties and the negotiated purchase price for the seven with <br /> purchase agreements. The price for each property listed includes title insurance and <br /> escrow fees. The list includes the purchase agreement for the Dublin San Ramon <br /> Service District (DSRSD) property which City Council approved on September 21, 2021. <br /> Payment has been made and the grant deeds have been recorded for DSRSD property. <br /> Attachment 7 also includes a budget number for each of the two properties for which <br /> Page 8 of 12 <br />
