Licensed Land Surveyor ` ► Contra Costa County Public Worksa( Date: g:lclericaI\exhibits\BayP009.ex 1/12/98 PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DATE: March 3i 1998 TO: Board of Supervisors -'' FROM: J. Michael Walford, Chief Engineer SUBJECT: Report Re: Condemnation Hearing, March 10, 1998 North Broadway Area Revitalization Project, Bay Point Area Pursuant to procedure approved by Board Order, dated November 1, 1988, the Public Works Director, on behalf of the Redevelopment Agency, sent a Notice of Intention to Adopt a Resolution of Necessity for acquisition by eminent domain of real property in the Bay Point area for the purpose of constructing infrastructure improvements in the North Broadway Area, and set Tuesday, March 10, 1998, at 10:45 a.m. as the date and time affected owners may appear and be heard as to matters specified by law under C.C.P. Section 1245.235 as set forth below. Upon recommendation of County Counsel, the following report is made for the Board's information and consideration prior to taking action upon said hearing. 1. Proposed Project - The proposed project is planned to help revitalize the neighborhood by constructing the following infrastructure improvements: (1) pavement widening, slurry-seal and frontage improvements (curb, gutter and sidewalk) on North Broadway, Solano and Poinsettia Avenues; (2) a new storm drainage system on Poinsettia and extension of existing storm drains on North Broadway and Solano Avenues; (3) construction of a new road (Pullman Avenue) from Fairview to North Broadway; and (4) installation of street lights on Pullman Avenue. In addition, a significant number of upgrades to the water and sewer facilities will be constructed. The Redevelopment Agency, through the Real Property Division of the Public Works Department, has made an offer of just compensation to the owners of record for the rights required for this project. The offers were based on an appraisal of the fair market value of said property rights. Real Property staff is currently negotiating with owners of the subject properties to acquire the required rights. In order to proceed with the project, it is necessary for the Redevelopment Agency to exercise its power of eminent domain. Pursuant to Section 1245.235 of the Code of Civil Procedure, notice was given to the following persons whose names and addresses appear on the last equalized County Assessment Roll: 1 Kevin J. Dutt David R. Stroup 2548 Mockingbird Hill Road 39 Pamela Court Walnut Creek, CA 94596 Bay Point, CA 94565 Francisca Tafoya Lolita James c/o Pete Tafoya 117 Poinsettia Avenue 1629 Woodland Bay Point, CA 94565 Pittsburg, CA 94565 This notice consisted of sending by first-class and certified mail on February 23, 1998, a Notice of Intention which notified these owners that a hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, March 10, 1958, at 10:45 a.m. and thereafter in the Board's Chambers, at which time they may appear to be heard on the matters referred to in the notice. I1. Scope of Hearing Per C.C.P. Section 1245.235 A. Public Interest and Necessity require the proposed aroiect. The North Broadway Area Infrastructure Program was developed to bring much-needed infrastructure improvements to this Bay Point neighborhood. The installation of drainage and frontage improvements on the existing roads and the improved neighborhood circulation via additional cross-streets will likely increase property values and.improve the residents' quality of life. Based on significant community support and a recommendation from the Bay Point Project Area Committee, the Board of Supervisors previously approved the project and authorized the Redevelopment Agency to sell bonds to fund construction of Phase One of the program. B. The project is planned and located in the manner that will be most compati- ble with the greatest public goad and the least private injury. The widening of North Broadway, Solano and Poinsettia Avenues will occur within existing County right of way. The proposed alignment of Pullman Avenue utilizes the right of way for an existing private road named "Pullman Avenue" between Fairview and Poinsettia Avenues, then shifts slightly south as it moves west of Poinsettia Avenue in order to minimize the number of residents that will be dislocated by the project. C. The property sought to be acquired is necessary,for theproject. Without the acquisition of the parcels covered by this report, it will not be possible to construct the proposed extension of Pullman Avenue. This proposed extension is necessary to improve neighborhood traffic circulation, which is essential to the project's success in revitalizing the neighborhood. D. The offer of compensation required by Section 7267.2 of the Government Code has been made to the owner or owners of record. 2 Ill. Recommended Action A. Board to ask if any notified property owners wish to be heard as to the three items specified in Section II above, whether the offer of compensation required by Section 72672.2 of the Government Code has been made, or on any other issue which they would like the Board to consider when deciding whether to adopt the proposed Resolution of Necessity, except for the issue of compensation. B. Upon completion and closing of the hearing, it is recommended that the Board make the findings and determinations listed under II A, B and C above, make an additional finding that the offer of compensation required by Section 7267.2 of the Government Code has been made to the owner or owners of record, adopt a Resolution of Necessity to acquire the required property by eminent domain and direct the Board Clerk to file a copy of this report.
