Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute a first amendment to the Use of
Right of Way Cooperative Agreement with the Orange County Transportation Authority to
facilitate the operation of the OC Streetcar Project in City right of way, subject to nonsubstantive
changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
On February 7, 2017, City Council approved a Use of Right of Way Cooperative Agreement with
the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) for the OC Streetcar Project. The agreement
defines the limits of use and each agency's roles, responsibilities, and commitments as they
relate to OCTA's facilities in the public right of way. The Cooperative Agreement was
subsequently executed by OCTA on March 13, 2017 (Exhibit 1).
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the primary funding agency, expressed concerns about
language in the right of way cooperative agreement between the City of Santa Ana and OCTA
regarding the disposition of streetcar system property, specifically with the language in Exhibit B,
Section 9.0, DUTY TO RESTORE. The concern was that the language gave the City the option
to require OCTA to keep in place streetcar improvements at no cost to the City, should OCTA
wish to discontinue service, and that this language did not comply with the disposition
requirements for federally assisted property.
This first amendment to the Use of Right of Way Cooperative Agreement modifies "Exhibit B, Use
of City Right of Way." Section 9.0 of the amended Exhibit B includes new language stipulating
that, once the agreement has expired or terminated, the City shall have the option to leave any
federally assisted property in place, provided that the City purchase the property in accordance
with applicable law and FTA grant requirements. The amendment does not impact the City's
right to have OCTA remove OC Streetcar infrastructure and restore the property and the

adjoining streets or other public facilities to a condition consistent with City standard plans, at the

COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT NO. C-6-1433
EXHIBIT B
USE OF CITY RIGHT OF WAY
1.0 DEFINITIONS
All capitalized terms used in this Exhibit B shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in
Article 1 of the Agreement.
2.0 USE OF CITY ROW
A. CITY hereby grants to AUTHORITY a non-exclusive use of the City ROW, necessary
to accommodate the construction of the OC Streetcar Project and the operation and maintenance of
the OC Streetcar System. Authority Use Rights shall be limited to the terms, conditions, limitations
and restrictions contained in this Agreement.
B. The location and extent of the City ROW which may be utilized by the AUTHORITY for
the construction of the OC Streetcar Project and the operation and maintenance of the OC Streetcar
System, and the scope and nature of such use, shall be governed by this Agreement, the Design
Agreement, Construction Agreement, Plans and Specifications, Operations and Maintenance
Agreement and in accordance with the Project Submittals.
C. The CITY has previously granted licenses or permits affecting all or portions of the City
ROW to persons and/or entities not a party to this Agreement which may impact the Authority Use
Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as granting AUTHORITY any rights
or claims for damages against the CITY relating in any way to the existence of any such licenses or
permits. To the extent that CITY may be required to grant a license, permit, or other rights in City
ROW it shall notify AUTHORITY of any planned use which could potentially impact AUTHORITY's
operations and cooperate with AUTHORITY to implement terms for such use to eliminate, to the extent
practicable, any such impacts.
D. The CITY may use the Occupied City ROW for its own purposes, but only to the extent
that such use does not materially interfere with Authority Use Rights. To the extent the City uses the
Occupied City ROW for its own purposes, it shall notify AUTHORITY of any planned use which could
Exhibit B
Page 1
25Q-25
COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT NO. C-6-1433
EXHIBIT B
potentially impact AUTHORITY'S operations and cooperate with AUTHORITY to implement terms for
such use to eliminate, to the extent practicable, any such impacts.
E. The Authority Use Rights are exclusive to the AUTHORITY and AUTHORITY shall not
assign except as provided in this Agreement any interest, rights or benefits in City ROW that is the
subject of this Agreement, and shall not sublease, sell utility or other telecommunication permits,
licenses, franchises, excess capacity easements or in any way use City ROW for any purpose other
than as specifically described in this Agreement.
F. The Authority Use Rights shall not be subject to any franchise fee, license fee, rental
charge or any other such fee or charge for AUTHORITY's use of the City ROW for the OC Streetcar
System operations and routine maintenance activities. This shall not preclude the CITY from charging
fees for plan checks, inspections or other types of services on routine maintenance involving lane
closures and capital improvement projects the AUTHORITY initiates in amounts that it charges other
persons for similar services.
3.0 COORDINATION OF ADJACENT PROJECTS
The CITY agrees to keep the AUTHORITY informed on projects, outside of the City ROW, that
CITY determines may interfere with the Project or OC Streetcar System, to the extent CITY is aware
of such projects. This includes, but is not limited to, utility projects, communication projects,
development projects, and other improvement projects.
4.0 OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE
Operations and maintenance activities will be as agreed in the Operations and Maintenance
Agreement entered into between the CITY and AUTHORITY.
5.0 FUTURE STREETCAR CONSTRUCTION BY AUTHORITY
The AUTHORITY agrees that the CITY shall have the right to review and approve all future
additions, changes and alterations to, and modifications and replacements of, any OC Streetcar
System improvements on Occupied City ROW which would materially change the OC Streetcar
Exhibit B

25Q-26
COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT NO. C-6-1433
EXHIBIT B
System or Authority Use Rights. The AUTHORITY shall not make such additions, changes,
alterations, modifications or replacements without first obtaining written approval from the CITY.
6.0 FUTURE PROJECTS IMPACTING STREETCAR
The CITY agrees that the AUTHORITY shall have the right to review and approve all future
additions, changes and alterations to, and modifications and replacements of, CITY and third party
facilities or use thereof which would materially interfere with the AUTHORITY's operation of the OC
Streetcar System or otherwise adversely affect the rights of the AUTHORITY under this Agreement.
Subject to any requirement by law for the CITY to act, the CITY shall not issue permits, licenses or
other authorizations to third parties which would materially interfere or otherwise adversely affect the
rights of the AUTHORITY without first obtaining written approval from the AUTHORITY, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
7.0 OC STREETCAR CONTROLLED WORK ACCESS ZONE
All work activities, either those of the CITY or third parties, within the controlled work access
zone limits depicted and described in Exhibit C, require a permit issued by the AUTHORITY prior to
work commencing. The CITY shall not issue any permits to any third parties to work in the City ROW,
within the controlled work access zone depicted and described in Exhibit C, without prior evidence of
a current AUTHORITY access permit. The specific rules and regulations related to such AUTHORITY
access permits shall be delineated in a future agreement between the Parties.
8.0 TRAFFIC REGULATIONS
Streetcar vehicles traveling on CITY streets shall be subject to all generally applicable speed
limits and other traffic control ordinances and regulations, consistent with state and federal law.
9.0 DUTY TO RESTORE
Upon the expiration of this Agreement, or earlier termination or partial termination of Authority
Use Rights and/or this Agreement, all OC Streetcar System improvements located on Occupied City
ROW as to which Authority Use Rights have been terminated shall, at the option of the CITY, as to
Exhibit B

quality, finish, and type of construction, at the sole cost and expense of the AUTHORITY. Restoration
shall be performed within one hundred eighty (180) days of such expiration or termination, or such
longer period as shall be required by the nature of the work and agreed to by the CITY and the
AUTHORITY. For any improvements left intact at the option of the CITY, CITY shall retain all
