Subject:APPROVE the Conveyance of Grants of Easements to East Bay Regional Parks District, Byron area, Work
Order No.4054
BACKGROUND:
In, 1994 the Contra Costa Water District (Water District) constructed the Los Vaqueros
Reservoir Project. In order to construct the reservoir, a portion of existing Vasco Road
was relocated and a new section of roadway (Replacement Roadway) was constructed
that included undercrossings that would allow adjacent land owners access to their
property that had been cut off by the Replacement Roadway.
A Cooperative Agreement (Agreement) was entered into on February 15, 1994 between
the Water District and the County to provide for the design, construction ownership and
maintenance of the Replacement Roadway. The Agreement was amended once on April
2, 1996 and a second time on November 19, 1996.
On October 08, 2008 the County accepted all rights and responsibility for the
Replacement Roadway from the Water District with exception of the undercrossings
which the Water District held as easements.
The Agreement was amended a third time On March 23, 2010. Under the third
amendment to the Agreement, the Water District agreed to make a final payment to the
County as reimbursement for costs incurred by the County for the Replacement
Roadway. The County agreed to accept a Quitclaim Deed from the Water District
relinquishing the Water District’s interests in and maintenance responsibilities to the
undercrossing easements once the final payment to the County was made. County also
agreed to grant, upon request from any owner of land adjacent to any of the
undercrossings located at station numbers 141, 225, 309, 422 and 620 along the
Replacement Roadway, an easement to the requesting property owner upon terms
mutually agreeable to the County and such property owner.
The Water District has submitted its final payment to the County and on April 4, 2010
the County accepted a Quitclaim Deed from the Water district relinquishing the Water
District’s interests in and maintenance responsibilities to the undercrossing easements.
Parks, as an owner of land adjacent to the undercrossings located at station numbers 309
and 422, has requested that the County grant Parks easements for the use of two
undercrossings along the Replacement Roadway.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
County will not be in compliance with the Cooperative Agreement as amended in March
23, 2010.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.
