FROM: Phil Batchelor J`' County
Executive Director
DATE: August 13, 1996
SUBJECT: Iron Horse Trail, Pleasant Hill BART Station Area .
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
AUTHORIZE the Chair to execute Amended Agreements for the Joint Exercise of Power to
fund and construct the Iron Horse Trail in the Pleasant Hill BART Station Area, including: (1)
an Amendment to Agreement A between the Contra Costa County Redevelopment Agency
and the East Bay Regional Park District; and (2) an Amended Agreement B between the
Redevelopment Agency, East Bay Regional Park District, and Contra Costa County.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Agency has budgeted sufficient funds-to cover the cost of this construction agreement.
No General Funds are involved.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
An approved use of the former Southern Pacific right-of-way in the vicinity of the Pleasant Hill
BART Station is as a trail corridor. The trail would be operated and maintained by the East
Bay Regional Park District (the Iron Horse Trail). By prior agreement, the Redevelopment
Agency would fund the construction of portions of the Iron Horse Trail. The original and
proposed amended agreements cover that obligation. A portion of this former Southern
Pacific right-of-way is owned by the Agency, and a portion paid for by the Agency but owned
by the County in fee, hence the two amended agreements.
