III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
The City of Walnut Creek and Contra Costa County have received a
FAU grant to widen a two lane section of Oak Road between Jones
Road and Walden Road in the Pleasant Hill BART Specific Plan
area to four lanes. The City which is the lead agency and will
administer the project, has completed the environmental
documentation for the road widening project: Construction on
this project is schedule to start in the Spring of 1990.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
If the Board does not approve the Joint Exercise of Powers
Agreement with the City of Walnut Creek to fund the County's
share of the road improvements, the City will not proceed with
the project and the Federal Aid Urban Grant funds would be lost.
