This project will connect the South Fork Trail (near Creekside Road) with the Commuter Rail Trail (near the Metrolink Station.) At the time of alignment adoption, City Council was advised that the project budget would not support an undercrossing under Bouquet Canyon Road ($375,000), a bridge over the South Fork at Creekside Road ($350,000), or rock lininghiprap protection of the bank along Soledad Canyon Road ($505;000). Staff suggests that these improvements (totaling $1,230,000) are key elements to the project and should be provided. Subsequent to. the February 13 Council meeting, staff has been able to secure $300,000 of Proposition C grant funds to cover a portion of these improvements. Staff recommends that the remaining $930,000 shortfall be reprogrammed from funds targeted for the future Santa Clara River Trail - Phase IV project. (Phase IV is intended to link the terminus of the South Fork Trail at McBean Parkway with the Valencia Industrial Center.) A reprogramming of these funds would leave enough funds in Phase IV to allow design of that trail segment to proceed, but would reprogram construction to future years. RECOMMENDATION 1. Approve the addition of the Bouquet Canyon Road undercrossing, bridge over the South Fork at Creekside Road, and riprap protection of the bank along Soledad Canyon Road into the Santa Clara River Trail - Phase III project. Award a contract for design of the bridge to ASL Consulting Engineers for an amount not to exceed $45,000 and authorize the City Manager to sign all documents. 2. Authorize budget adjustments of $1,230,000 in accordance with Attachment A.
