<br />3&-\ <br /> <br /> <br />March 27, 2000 <br /> <br />Subject <br />Approval Improvement Plans, Deed of Easement, and Cost Sharing Agreement for the <br />Canyon Road Reconstruction - Phase II - Engineering File No. 803-02 <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />1. Adopt a resolution approving and authorizing execution of Cost Sharing Agreement <br />between the City of Redwood City and the County of San Mateo for the <br />Reconstruction and Resurfacing of Canyon Road between Cordilleras Road and <br />Oak Knoll Drive in the Redwood City Area. <br /> <br />2. Accept a deed of easement from Mr. & Mrs. Saldano for constructing a portion of <br />the sidewalk, and direct the City Clerk to accept on behalf of the City, said deed of <br />easement pursuant to Resolution No.1 0944, adopted December 5, 1988, and to <br />record a certified copy of this Resolution and Minute Order in the Office of the San <br />Mateo County Recorder. <br /> <br />Background <br />The last remaining section of unimproved Canyon Road lies between Cordilleras Road <br />and Oak Knoll Drive. This road is half in the County and half in City, and as a result, it <br />was not included in the section that was improved over seven years ago. Staff has <br />been working with the County over the past seven years, and finally the City and <br />County are in agreement to improve this old, worn-out section of roadway. <br /> <br />The County has taken the lead in getting the project designed and out to bid. Our <br />agreement is to share the cost of the design and construction, following the <br />proportionate share of the roadway in each entity. Plans are now complete, and the <br />two agencies are ready to go out for bid on the construction of the improvements. <br /> <br />The City's portion of the work includes roadway reconstruction, curb, gutter and <br />sidewalk, along with associated related work. A new water service to the residences <br />will be provided at the time the roadway is reconstructed. <br /> <br />A small portion of the new sidewalk will encroach onto the property of Mr. and Mrs. <br />Saldano, and they have agreed to grant an easement in order to make the new <br />sidewalk connect to the existing sidewalk. <br /> <br />"T" ~ <br />
