DISCUSSION Bristol Street is a major north -south transportation facility which is designated as a major arterial in the City's Circulation Element of the General plan. Improving the 3.9 -mile Bristol Street segment from Warner Avenue to Memory Lane has been a long-term priority project that will be constructed in several phases. This segment is between Washington Avenue and Seventeenth Street and is designated as Phase 3B. Improvements include widening the street from two to three lanes in each direction, raised landscape medians, and bike lanes. Since the project is nearly completed, a reconciliation of project revenues found that initial expenditures made by the funding agency (Orange County Transportation Authority) had not been accounted for when the City took over managing the funds. In order to restore project budget levels to their original amounts, the two above appropriation adjustments are recommended. In addition, the third recommended action reallocates unexpended funds from a completed project to make them available for this project. These funds will allow final payments to be made and project closeout to be initiated. 20A-1 Appropriation Adjustment for Bristol Corridor Project February 5, 2019 Page 2 STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #6 — Community Facilities & Infrastructure, Objective #1 (establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City assets), Strategy G (develop and implement the City's Capital Improvement Program in coordination with the Community Investment and Deferred Maintenance Plans).
