DISCUSSION
On January 6, 2003, the City Council approved a settlement agreement with
the Southern California Regional Rail Authority, commonly referred to as
Metrolink, relating to Metrolink's Santa Ana Second Main Track project.
The settlement agreement stipulates that Metrolink will pay the City
$190,000 within thirty (30) days following receipt of the notice to
proceed with construction.
The funds recei ved by the City are to be used to construct proj ect
enhancements that are designed to enhance the character, appearance and
quality of life of the community in the project area. The project
enhancements consist of the following improvements: 1) replacement of
existing windows on homes fronting Lincoln Avenue between Fairhaven
Avenue and Seventeenth Street with double pane windows, 2) installation
of three neighborhood entrance markers at Seventeenth Street, Santa Clara
and Fairhaven Avenues, and 3) planting of additional 25-gallon size trees
between the railroad right-of-way from Fairhaven Avenue to Santiago Creek
to provide a visual screen from passing trains.
The project enhancements are to be constructed by the City concurrently
with the second main track project. The project schedule calls for the
project to be completed by May 2008.
