On September 30 , 1986 , the Board approved a Consulting Services
Agreement to prepare the construction plans for the project . The
County and the cities of Antioch , Brentwood and Pittsburg
executed a separate agreement to share the cost of these plans.
The County ' s maximum obligation was $26 ,000 .
The construction plans are complete and the project will be ready
for advertising for bids this fall . At that time Caltrans will
request the funds from the local agencies to pay for the
construction.
Because of revisions to the cost of the project it is necessary
to raise the Area of Benefit fee to insure the County will be
able to pay its share.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
Negative action may result in the County not being able to pay
its share and the project being postponed
