FOR COUNTY TO ACQUIRE PROPERTY FOR STATE HIGHWAY
PURPOSES. STATE ROUTE 4 EAST WIDENING PROJECT.
The Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County, California, by vote of four-fifths or
more of its members, RESOLVES that:
Pursuant to Government Code section 25350.5 and Streets & Highways Code section
943, Contra Costa County in conjunction with the Contra Costa Transportation Authority
(CCTA) and the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) intend to construct
a road project in the Pittsburg area, specifically the State Route 4 East Widening Project. This
project, which is sponsored by CCTA, will widen State Route 4 to accommodate an additional
mixed-flow land and one high occupancy vehicle lane in each direction within the 3.6 kilometer
(2.2 mile) long State Route 4 corridor between Railroad Avenue and Loveridge Road.
Caltrans has recommended that the County acquire real property or interests needed
for the State Route 4 East Widening Project and has asked that the County adopt this
resolution.
This Board recognizes that the acquisition of property or interests for State highway
purposes will promote the interests of the County and is a necessity.
The County of Contra Costa is hereby authorized to acquire in the name of the State or
the County any titles, easements and rights of way in and to real property or interest(s) therein
needed for the State Route 4 East Widening Project. This resolution is the only preliminary
procedure required prior to the acquisition of such property or interest. However, in the event
that eminent domain proceedings are required, the County will adopt a separate resolution
which satisfies the requirements of Article 2 (commencing with section 1245.210) of Chapter
4, Title 7, Part 3 of the Code of Civil Procedure.
