TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
DATE: November,ll, 1986
SUBJECT: Execute Agreement for Receipt of State Transit Funds for Acquisition of Southern
Pacific Right of Way (4425-4127)
Specific Request(s) or Recommendation(s) & Background & Justification
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Director of the Public Works Department to execute a Fund Transfer
Agreement with the State of California, Department of Transportation, for a $6.0 million
grant of Transportation, Planning and Development Account funds.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
State funds provided by this grant require an equal match of non-state funds. The non-
state funds will be provided by the development of joint compatible 'uses with other public-
agencies and from private sector participation.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The State of California, through the California Transportation Commission, has allocated on
two separate occasions a total of $4.579 million to Contra Costa County which has provided
for the initiation of a planning process and the acquisition of 8.2 miles of the San Ramon
Branchline right of way. In July, 1986, the California Transportation Commission allocated
an additional $6.0 million to Contra Costa County to complete acquisition of the right of
way. This Agreement provides the administrative process for the appropriation of the funds
allocated by the California Transportation Commission.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The failure to utilize allocated State grant funds would require the development of an
additional $6.0 million in local funds in order to complete the acquisition of the San
Ramon Branchline right of way.
