REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND: In 1979 the Discovery Bay Area of Benefit was formed to provide funding to widen State Route 4 from Borden Junction to the east boundary of the Discovery Bay development. Caltrans agreed to fund the design, administration and construction engineering as its share of the cost of the improvements. The first two phases, Borden Junction to Bixler!Road, were completed by Caltrans. The remaining 3 phases, Bixler Road to the east boundary of Discovery Bay are to be completed by the County under the terms of Cooperative Agreement No. 4-1047-C which was executed on February 23, 1988.

Div: Public Works (Design Division) cc: County Administrator �j , ,, Deputy Auditor-Controller PW Accounting Construction J ,L APPROVE AMENDMENT TO COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT TO WIDEN STATE ROUTE 4 AT DISCOVERY BAY October 2, 1990 Page Two Ill. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND Cont'd: The Agreement obligates Caltrans to fund the design, administration and construction engineering for the project and the County to fund the construction and right of way costs. The original estimates for preliminary and construction engineering were based on a percentage of a contract cost estimate of $1,530,000. The contract cost is now estimated at $1,950,000 and the design and construction engineering estimates have been revised based on that figure. Phase III, construction of the bridges at Kellogg and Kendall Creeks is nearing completion. Phases IV and V have been combined into one project and the design is complete. The project has been advertised and bids were received on September 13, 1990. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Failure to approve and execute the Amendment to the Cooperative Agreement will result in no increase in funding from Caltrans and the County will not be reimbursed for costs incurred. i I' . f
