Summary Statement: The Cooperative Agreement entered into by the City and Caltrans on June 1, 2009
(Resolution No. 2009-075 N.C.S.), establishes the respective responsibilities of the State and of the City
regarding appraisal, acquisition, relocation services and other right-of--way activities for the Project, including the
City's responsibility to perform all right-of--way activities, including all eminent domain activities, if necessary,.
regarding the acquisition of property to accommodate the road widening, and relocation of utilities necessary for
completion of fhe project
In order to meet the project schedule (metric exception deadline), the East Washington Interchange Project
must advertise for bids no later than June 30, 2010. This requires all right-of--way and easement must be certified
by Caltrans no later than that date.
In order to ensure this critical schedule is maintained, the City needs to take all steps necessary to obtain the
necessary rights-of--way for construction, including steps to initiate eminent domain, if necessary.
In ths.case, because ofthe Cooperative Agreement, one of the steps needed before the Council could initiate
eminent domain proceedings is for the Council to first approve a resolution seeking authorization from the State
to conducf a resolution of necessity hearing for the project.
Staff is recommending the right-of--way acquisition process follow two parallel paths: the first which staff
hopes to facilitate is that property owners will either donate and/or accept the City's appraised value of the
property. The second is to prepare for, and if necessary, initiate eminent domain proceedings in the event that
other agreements with property owners cannot be reached.
