RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
the Clerk of the Council to execute a cooperative agreement with Caltrans
in the amount of $805,800 to design and install landscaping at the State
Route 55 and MacArthur Boulevard Interchange.
DISCUSSION
The Orange County Transportation Authority's (OCTA's) Interstate 405 (1-
405)/State Route 55 (SR-55) Interchange Improvement Project was completed
in October 2005. The Cities of Santa Ana, Costa Mesa, and the majority
of businesses in the area have requested replacement landscaping at two
key interchanges to repair the conditions that deteriorated significantly
during the four-year construction period.
On June 27, 2005, the OCTA Board authorized the execution of a
cooperative agreement with the cities of Costa Mesa and Santa Ana, in a
not to exceed amount of $1,343,000. This funding was allocated for the
design and installation of new landscaping at the 1-405/Bristol Street
and SR-55/MacArthur Boulevard Interchanges. Santa Ana's share for the
SR-55/MacArthur Boulevard Interchange was $805,800.
On August 15, 2005, the City Council executed a cooperative agreement
with OCTA stipulating that we agreed to manage our landscaping project
and provide detailed monthly expenditure reports to aCTA. Further, we
agreed to fund any additional cost over the original amount allocated, or
reduce the scope of work to remain within the respective budget. A
funding transfer for the $805,800 was also authorized through the
cooperative agreement.
At this time,
execution of
staff is requesting that the City Council authorize the
a cooperative agreement with Caltrans in the amount of
25F-1

1999 for the installation of landscaping at this location in conjunction
with the 1-405/SR-55 Interchange Project.

1015) to install new landscaping at the SR-55/MacArthur Boulevard
Interchange.
