Resolution No. 98-38 Page Two WHEREAS, a Negative Declaration had been prepared and adopted when the First Street Bridge at Arroyo del Valle Project was approved, following public notice of the availability of the environmental document, public hearing, and public opportunity for review and comment. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS: Section 1: The City Council finds, determines and orders as follows: a. The public interest and necessity require the Project in order to provide additional traffic capacity to maintain an acceptable level of service and to improve safety by improving traffic flow, providing a median turning lane, allowing pedestrian and bicycle access on each side of the bridge, replacing deteriorated pavement, and providing a new bridge which meets current seismic standards. b. The Project is planned and located in the manner which will be most compatible with the greatest public good and least private injury because it only affects seven property owners, while the Project improvements will currently benefit about 12,000 motorists on each of the east and west ends of the corridor, as well as pedestrians and cyclists. c. The taking of the property interests more particularly described in the attached Exhibit A is necessary for the Project. d. The offer required by Section 7267.2 of the Government Code of the State of California has been made to the owner or owners of record of such real property. e. On July 16, 1997, the City Council of the City of Pleasanton, by Resolution No. 97-92, adopted the Negative Declaration for the First Street Bridge at Arroyo del Valle Project, pursuant to the Califomia Environmental Quality Act. Notice of Determination for the Negative Declaration was filed with the Alameda County Clerk on September 2, 1997.
