RECOMMENDATION
Motion to Approve Resolution No. 2023-40, Approving the State Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Master Agreement No. 10-5244S21 and Program Supplemental Agreement No. A193 for the Intersection at Sperry Avenue and Highway 33 Project HSIPSL-5244 (042), and Authorize the City Manager to Execute the new Master Agreement, the Program Supplement Agreement and all Future Documents for this Project on the City’s Behalf.
BACKGROUND
The City of Patterson has been approved to receive $175,500 of funding for design services through the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) for the Intersection at Sperry Avenue and Highway 33 Project. The project is located at the intersection of Sperry Avenue and Highway-33. This intersection improvements will consist of installing a new traffic signal with paved shoulder widening, left turn lanes, roadway signing and striping. The Railroad crossing improvements will include at-grade railroad crossing improvements on the side street approach less than 110 feet to the east. This is in an effort to maintain and improve roadway safety within the City of Patterson. This project will be a coordinated effort between the City, Caltrans and CFNR Railroad.
However, in order to receive funds from Caltrans, the City Council must authorize an official to execute a new master agreement and a Program Supplemental Agreement. These agreements set forth the requirements for use of the State funds. Caltrans requires that this type of agreement be executed for each project by the agency receiving the funds. Once the agreement is signed, Caltrans will issue an “Authorization to Proceed” which allows the City to proceed with the work for the project.
ANALYSIS
Attached for your review and approval are the new Master Agreement and the Program Supplemental Agreement with the Resolution that will need to be approved by the City Council.
If approved, the City Manager will execute the agreements and submit them along with the resolution to Caltrans.
FISCAL IMPACT
This item does not carry any fiscal impacts with it. Each phase of work will be brought before the Council at a later date with a clear financial breakdown and request for contract approval.
