SUBJECT:

AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT WITH CALTRANS - DRAINAGE EASEMENTS ALONG STATE ROUTE 125 (DISTRICT: 2)

On August 15, 1995 (21), the Board approved Cooperative Agreement No. 11-8181 for Sweetwater Road drainage easements with the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans).  This agreement, with initial expiration date of December 31, 1999, allowed Caltrans to take ownership of various drainage easements to construct State Route 125 freeway (SR-125) and associated drainage structures in Spring Valley area.  The agreement also provided for Caltrans to return those easements outside of the freeway right-of-way to the County and the Flood Control District, upon completion of construction.

This arrangement benefits the community through better drainage facilities that greatly decrease the risk of flooding.  It also benefits the County and it's residents through lower maintenance costs during construction because Caltrans maintains the sites.  When improved easements are returned to the County after completion of construction, they will be less costly to maintain.

On December 8, 1999 (9), this agreement (Amendment No. 11-8181/A1) was extended until December 31, 2001. Due to unforeseen scheduling conflicts, Caltrans has determined that SR-125 project will not be completed before the December 31, 2001, termination date of the agreement.  Caltrans has requested an extension of an additional year (Amendment No. 11-8181/A2) until December 31, 2002.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This request will have no current or subsequent year fiscal impact, and will require no additional staff years.

RECOMMENDATION:

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

1.     Find in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3) of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines that this action is not a project as defined in Section 15378(3)(b)(2) and is therefore, not subject to CEQA.

2.     Approve and authorize the Clerk of the Board to execute five copies of the Amendment (Agreement No. 11-8181/A2) with Caltrans to extend the termination date to December 31, 2002.
