TITLE
Recommendation to authorize City Manager, or designee, to accept an easement deed for sidewalk widening at 4400 East Los Coyotes Diagonal. (District 4)
DISCUSSION
It is the goal of the Department of Public Works to widen sidewalks to the standards established in the City's General Plan. When significant new development is proposed, the public rights-of-way adjacent to the site are reviewed for sufficiency to accommodate the new development. For the construction of a new 16,556 square foot CVS retail pharmacy, at 4400 East Los Coyotes Diagonal, the dedication of additional sidewalk width is recommended. In particular, the existing 4-foot wide sidewalk should be widened by 8.0 feet, to a total width of 12 feet, as indicated on the attachment.
The developer of the subject property agreed to development conditions that include the above described dedication.
In conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act, Categorical No. CE 12-052 was issued for this project.
This matter was reviewed by Linda Vu on March 19, 2014 and by Budget Management Officer Victoria Bell on April 1, 2014.
TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
City Council action on this matter is not time critical.
FISCAL IMPACT
A document processing fee of $1,232 was deposited in the General Fund (GP) in the Public Works Department (PW). Approval of this matter could potentially have a positive impact on the job market.
SUGGESTED ACTION
Approve recommendation.
