HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 06052012 - C.02RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and ADOPT the Capital Road Improvement and Preservation Program (CRIPP) for fiscal year
2011/2012 through 2017/2018, as recommended by the Transportation, Water and Infrastructure Committee.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact. Approval and adoption of the CRIPP will provide a planning document that will outline the
anticipated expenditures of road related capital funds in the next seven years. The CRIPP is a working document that
programs funds for capital road improvement projects within the County. Preparation of the CRIPP is a requirement
of the Growth Management Program and Measure J funding.
BACKGROUND:
The CRIPP was established by Resolution 89/306 under the County Road Improvement Policy. The Policy was
authorized by Government Code Section 66002 and is required under the Growth Management Element of the Contra
Costa Transportation and Growth Management Program Ordinance approved by the voters in November 1988

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
C-88) and reaffirmed in 2004 with passage of Measure J. Measure J requires that each participating local agency
develop a five-year CRIPP to meet and/or maintain traffic service and performance standards. In 1991, the CRIPP
was expanded to cover seven years to conform to the Congestion Management Plan, and in 1992 the CRIPP
update was changed to a biennial schedule.
The Capital Road Improvement & Preservation Program (CRIPP) is a programming document for the funding of
capital road improvement projects within Contra Costa County. It includes estimated project costs, funding source
information, and scheduling information for known potential projects within the next seven fiscal years. It also
includes revenue projections and a summary of estimated project-related expenditures for each funding source.
Approval of the CRIPP by the Board of Supervisors does not automatically approve each individual project listed
in the CRIPP. Each project in the CRIPP is subject to a separate public review, engineering feasibility analysis,
and environmental assessment before the Board of Supervisors will consider final approval of the project. As this
is a planning level document, adoption of the CRIPP will not preclude construction of projects that have not been
identified.
As more information is gathered about a project, the Public Works Department may determine that the project
will cost more than originally estimated for reasons not known at this time. In such a case the Public Works
Department will study various alternatives to find a solution to the funding shortfall. The Public Works
Department will adjust subsequent CRIPPs to reflect any changes in project scope or cost.
Adopting a CRIPP to guide our capital improvements will do several things for the County:
• Increase public awareness of how and where funds will be spent on our road system.
• Enhance public trust and increase funding transparency by demonstrating that funds are programmed and
expended in accordance with an approved program.
• Encourage more public involvement in the programming and expenditure of our capital funds.
• Provide accurate “accountability” of whether our transportation system will meet acceptable level of service to
satisfy our growth management policies.
• Provide a basis for projecting staffing needs over the next seven years.
• Provide a budget tool to track expenditures of each type of funding utilized for capital improvements.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to approve the CRIPP could adversely affect the schedule of road improvements for the next seven years
as this document provides direction for project planning and staff requirements in the coming years.
Measure J and the County’s proposed growth management policy requires adoption of a CRIPP be enacted to
meet the anticipated needs of new development impacts on the roadway systems. Without an approved CRIPP,
the County will not be able to fulfill this requirement, which would jeopardize our Measure J return to source
funding.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.

project regarding the intersection at Stone Valley Road and Danville Boulevard is not included in the Capital
Road Improvement and Preservation Program (CRIPP), is not funded, will not be included; the item (Project 5)
is on the Area of Benefit (AOB) project listing. Ms. Bueren explained that in order for it to be removed from
the AOB Project list, a public hearing must be held, a nexus study performed and the relevant ordinance
amended. The cost of the nexus study is estimated to be at least $100,000, which will most likely be taken from
the AOB funds.
