III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND Cont'd.:
A Cooperative Agreement between'the State and the County is required for the construction of
Phase I because Highway 4 is a State facility. The cooperative agreement specifies the duties
and obligations of the County and the State in constructing the project. A previous cooperative
agreement covering the rpoject design was approved and executed October 30, 1990.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to approve and execute the cooperative agreement will result in the County being unable
to construct the improvements to Highway 4 in Oakley.
