REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND:
The County(on behalf of County Service Area R-7A)and the Town of Danville jointly acquired Hap Magee Ranch
Park through the Contra Costa County Public Facilities Corporation(Board Resolution 87/309)and subsequently
entered in to a Joint Powers Agreement for maintenance and operation of the facility(Board Resolution 87/309). As
set forth in the Agreement,the Town of Danville is the lead agency and has been working with the Joint Planning
and Operations Committee (JPOC) to implement components of the previously adopted Hap Magee Ranch Park
Master Plan.Project costs are to be shared equally between the County(CSA R-7A)and the Town of Danville.The
Town of Danville has requested that the County make construction progress payments, as was done during the
construction of the Phase I improvements. Since fiscal year 1997/1998 the two agencies have been planning and
budgeting for Phase II improvements to the facility, which generally include undergrounding of PG&E utilities,
renovation of the"Cottage"patio and fencing,and construction of play and picnic areas,parking and an enclosed off
leash dog park.All of these amenities are consistent with the Master Plan and the Agreement.The increase in annual
maintenance and operation costs has been included in the program budgets for each agency. There.was also
extensive public comment period on these improvements as well as input from both the County and the Town of
Danville via the JPOC.
On May 18, 2004,the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors authorized the Public Works Director to arrange
for construction progress payments to the Town of Danville in the amount of $509,717 for the Phase II
improvements at Hap Magee Ranch Park in Alamo. The improvements are now nearing completion. Due to the
additional time to implement these improvements and the increase in the construction and design costs,an additional
amount not to exceed $324,000 is needed to fund the County's portion of these improvements.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
Without the Board of Supervisors' approval,the Town of Danville will not be reimbursed for their costs.As a result
the County will not bear its share of the costs for these improvements which would be inconsistent with the Joint
Powers Agreement previously adopted.
