CONSENT CALENDAR
DATE: May 26, 1998
AGENDA REPORT
City Manager Approval: At/
Item to be presented by rsd Therrien
SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES TO STUDY
THE IMPACTS OF RELINQUISHMENT OF SAN FERNANDO ROAD
AND MAGIC MOUNTAIN PARKWAY (SR126) BY THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA TO THE CITY OF SANTA CLARITA
DEPARTMENT: Transportation and Engineering Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council authorize the City Manager or his designee to negotiate a contract with
Construction Management Inspection for Professional Services to Study the Impacts of
Relinquishment of San Fernando Road and Magic Mountain Parkway (SR126) in an amount
not to exceed $73,000.00, and authorize funding from the Council Contingency Fund, Account
No. 1240-7401.
BACKGROUND
The State of California Department of Transportation has requested that the City consider
accepting SR126 from I5 to SR14 in the City's roadway system. This action will require the
City to assume full responsibility for the existing roadway. To minimize unknown impacts
related to liability and maintenance issues, a study of existing needs and deficiencies is
necessary.
When relinquishment occurs, the City will have the ability to set design standards and level
of construction, and to control other activities that occur within this right-of-way. At the
present time, Caltrans must approve any activity the City wishes to undertake in the area.
Along with the capacity to control activities in the right-of-way, the City will be required to
include the facility in the maintenance program of the City.
The proposed study will provide for an in-depth evaluation resulting in an inventory of issues,
needs, and deficiencies in the State right-of-way. Staff will utilize this inventory in future
relinquishment negotiations with Caltrans representatives. Staff believes the transfer of
ownership will occur in the near future, and a "needs assessment" is the most effective and
beneficial approach to prepare for upcoming negotiations.
Ten firms were solicited to respond to the "Request for Proposals" (see attachment), and five
firms responded. Staff performed an evaluation of the responses, with the firm of Construction
Management Inspection rating the most responsive to the City's needs.
