II. Financial Impact:
There will be no financial impact to the general fund. The County's share of the estimated design
costs is $386,338 and will be paid for with Tosco/Solano Transportation Mitigation funds.
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
One of the projects selected for funding from the Tosco/Solano Transportation Mitigation Fund
was the Pacheco Boulevard Realignment. After the Public Works Department staff began the
preliminary study for the realignment project they discovered that the Contra Costa Transportation
Authority (CCTA) was preparing the environmental document and the project study report for the
Interstate 680 High Occupancy Vehicle Lane project. Both of the projects will be replacing an
underpass at the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad, and it was decided that coordinating the
railroad work would save both agencies money.
CCTA with the approval of the County, and Caltrans hired HDR Inc. to design the railroad
underpasses and the railroad detour. On March 21, 2000, the Board of Supervisors approved a
Cost Sharing Agreement that defined the responsibilities of CCTA and the County
The approved agreement did not specify an effective date. This amendment specifies the
effective date of the agreement as January 1, 2000. This revision permits the County to pay for
its obligation of costs that occurred between January 1, 2000 and March 21, 2000.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
Failure to approve Amendment No. 1 to the Cost Sharing Agreement could delay the project and
increase the cost.
