6.E. - Page 2 of 34 prepared a Parcel Map to merge the vacated portions of Walnut Street into Kaiser's existing properties on either side of the street. Additionally, during its preparation of the Parcel Map, it was discovered that a public utility easement bisects the Kaiser campus even though the easement is no longer in use. The Kaiser Precise Plan, approved by the City council in 2003, was amended in 2010 to adjust setback requirements, street frontage improvements, and the location of vehicular access points to the Kaiser Campus. In particular, the 2010 amendment facilitated public access to the Phase 1 Hospital Replacement Project from Marshall Street via Marshall Court, what was then a cul-de-sac providing local access to structures on Marshall Court only. While reviewing construction documents for the Phase 1 Hospital Replacement Project, staff worked with Kaiser to study the abandonment of the cul-de-sac portion of Marshall Court so that Kaiser could better reconfigure the area as an access point to the campus. On May 24, 2010, the City Council approved a Revocable Encroachment Permit to facilitate hospital construction and to provide Kaiser sufficient time to determine the underlying fee ownership of Marshall Court prior to its abandonment. Since that time, the underlying fee ownership was found not to be held by Kaiser, and Kaiser is no longer seeking abandonment of Marshall Court. In addition, on January 25, 2016, the requirement to prepare a tentative parcel map was waived (Attachment 3). 0L1M%,MV Kaiser has completed the construction of improvements in accordance with the Agreement, the plans and specifications, and to the satisfaction of the City's Engineering and Transportation Division. Kaiser provided faithful performance and labor and material ("payment") bonds in the amount of $4,991,981. Maintenance (warranty) bonds will be held for a one-year period, in the event that any of the improvements fail within that time. Upon recordation of the Parcel Map, the public utility easement bisecting the Kaiser campus would be abandoned. Additionally, the previously -abandoned portions of Walnut Street would become part of the larger Kaiser parcel. Marshall Court would not be affected. Finally, the Grant of Revocable Encroachment Permit is intended to supersede the 2010 Revocable Encroachment Permit and would allow Kaiser to keep certain communication and storm drain lines under the cul-de-sac portion of Marshall Court, and under a portion of Maple Street. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact to the City as a result of this action. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW In 2003, the City Council certified an EIR that reviewed the potential environmental impacts with the buildout of the Downtown Medical Campus Precise Plan. This project has been reviewed for conformance with the environmental impacts identified and analyzed in the EIR and subsequent City of Redwood City 1017 Middlefield Road, Redwood City, CA. 94063 Tel: 650-780-7000 www.redwoodcity.ore 86
