The Agreement outlines the general roles and responsibilities between the City <br />of Santa Ana and OCTA for the design phase of the Project. The Agreement was subsequently <br />executed by OCTA on May 9, 2016. <br />A first amendment to the agreement was later approved on April 4, 2017, which slightly revised <br />the scope of the Agreement and adjusted the expenditure plan. On July 17, 2018, a second <br />amendment to the Agreement was approved, which updated the project scope to reflect the <br />transfer of agreed-upon easements to OCTA by the City. <br />The proposed third amendment to the Agreement (Exhibit 1) updates Section 10.2, "Permits," of <br />Exhibit B, "Project Scope," to include provisions for OCTA to move forward in completing the lot <br />consolidation process prior to acquiring fee title of three privately owned parcels the City and <br />OCTA are jointly acquiring for the OC Streetcar Maintenance and Storage Facility (MSF) site. <br />This action will allow the City to issue all design and construction permits required for the MSF <br />site and allows OCTA to continue with the project's construction activities without delay. <br />25K-1 <br />
