FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
DATE: July 12, 1994
SUBJECT: Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement - Ygnacio Valley Road/Cowell Road Project
Project No.: 0662-6R4221-92 CP#93-77
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)& BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. Recommended Action:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Chair of the Board of Supervisors to execute the Joint Exercise of
Powers Agreement between the County and the City of Concord, regarding the addition of dual left
turn lanes from Cowell Road to Ygnacio Valley Road and the appropriate signal modifications to the
County's Ygnacio Valley Road/Cowell Road project.
If. Financial lmpact:
There is no financial impact to the County General Fund. The City of Concord will provide $38,700
to the County to include the additional work in the Ygnacio Valley Road/ Cowell Road project.
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
The project consists of an asphalt concrete overlay of Ygnacio Valley Road, left turn lanes on Cowell
Road and a traffic signal at the intersection. During the project planning stage it was noticed that
the traffic flow through this intersection would be enhanced if dual left turn lanes were installed on
the Cowell Road leg of the intersection, which is in the City of Concord. The City of Concord agreed
with our conclusions and agreed to participate in the project and to pay for the improvements within
the City Limits.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
Failure to execute the Ygnacio Valley Road/ Cowell Road Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement
between the County and the City of Concord for the $38,700 funding may delay the construction of
the project.
