TO: City Council
REQUESTED BY: Stuart McKibbin, City Engineer
APPROVED BY: Robert A. Johnson, City Manager
SUBJECT: Warren Road Minor Drainage Improvement Project (SJ-507) (CIP# 24- 002)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council take the following actions:
. Appropriate $298,605 from Fund 39, Flood Control, for the Warren Road Minor Drainage Improvements Project until RCFCD reimbursement agreement is executed.
DISCUSSION:
The City of San Jacinto and KB Home Coastal Inc. came to an agreement that KB Home Coastal Inc. would provide a $162,500 fair share contribution in lieu of constructing drainage improvements as a part of their conditions of approval. Riverside County Flood Control District (RCFCD) agreed to fund the remaining costs for the construction of this drainage channel.
On January 7th,2025, the City Council awarded the construction contract for the Warren Road Minor Drainage Improvement Project (SJ-507) (CIP# 24-002) to Wright Construction Engineering, Inc. At that time, the City had not yet finalized its agreement with RCFCD. The staff report stated that the RCFCD funding agreement would come back to the City Council at an upcoming meeting.
While RCFCD is committed to providing the necessary funding for this project, in subsequent discussions with RCFCD it has become apparent that the execution of the agreement would not occur before the contractor starts work.
Therefore, to bridge the funding gap until the funding agreement with RCFCD is executed, Engineering recommends the City Council appropriate $298,605 from Fund 39, Flood Control, to Warren Road Minor Drainage Improvement Project (CIP# 24-002). The Flood Control fund would be backfilled by RCFCD after execution of the funding agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this item will not ultimately impact the General Fund. The existing developer funds supplemented by RCFCD funds are sufficient to fund construction, construction contingencies, administration, and inspection.
