At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, providing there is less than 50 percent written protest from the represented area of benefit: a. Find that the fees and the establishment of the district do not constitute a "project" as defined in California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guideline 15378(b)(4). b. Adopt the resolution approving the fee analysis report establishing the fees. c. Instruct the City Clerk to record a certified copy of the adopted resolution with the County Recorder. BACKGROUND This item is a Public Hearing to consider the adoption of the Valencia Bridge and Major Thoroughfare District. This district will provide an equitable financing mechanism for new development to share the costs of providing the necessary roadway improvements. The adoption of this type of funding district does not charge existing development, but rather levies an assessment in proportion to the estimated number of vehicle trips generated by the development. Currently there are three Bridge and Thoroughfare districts within the City. Two of these districts are combined City and County districts (Bouquet and Eastside Districts), and one is entirely within the City (Via Princessa District). The only portion of the City not currently within an existing district is that portion proposed to be within,the Valencia District. V E nda Item: PROPOSED VALENCIA BRIDGE AND MAJOR THOROUGHFARE CONSTRUCTION FEE DISTRICT January 12, 1999 - Page 2 This proposed district will be significantly different from the existing districts. The proposed Valencia District is the first Bridge and Thoroughfare district within the Santa Clarita Valley that provides "fall mitigation" for the cost of bridges and major thoroughfares. The existing district charges are based on the cost of partial improvements. The City's Transportation & Engineering Services staff has been working with Los Angeles County Department of Public Works staff and several major developers within the proposed Valencia District to develop the technical data for the formation of the district. All planned major road improvements within the boundaries of the proposed district were evaluated to determine their design parameters based on the impacts and demands created by proposed future development within the district. Estimated costs for all of the proposed infrastructure were developed, and then these costs were proportioned over future development to establish an impact fee. The estimated cost for district improvements is $118,412,490.00. The proposed fee rate to be set is $9,787.00 per Factored Development Unit (FDU), which is equivalent to ten trips. In contemplation of the establishment of this district, the City and County have been collecting interim fees for several years whenever new development occurred. Once the district is established, the fees that have been collected can be utilized to construct improvements within the new district. Since the formation of this district is a joint effort between the City and the County of Los Angeles, the formation requires the mutual consent of both governing bodies. The item is set for the January 19, 1999 County Board of Supervisors meeting. Under CEQA guideline 15378(b)(4), the establishment of the district fee does not constitute a "project," and therefore does not in itself create any environmental impact to be mitigated. The public hearing has been properly noticed. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS Reject the Engineer's Report and direct staff to prepare an alternate report utilizing changed or modified criteria to establish an impact fee, or discontinue efforts to form a special district. PROPOSED VALENCIA BRIDGE AND MAJOR THOROUGHFARE CONSTRUCTION FEE DISTRICT January 12, 1999 - Page 3 FISCAL IMPACT None proposed with this action. However, if the proposed district were to be established, new development would fund all identified infrastructure at no cost to existing residents, and no public funds would be required to construct the proposed infrastructure.

L-1 County of Los ArwjeMs C?y of Santa Clarits /V Report on the Bridge and Major Thoroughtwe Construction Fee Drstnct for VWencia This report presents to the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and the Santa Clarita City Council for approval, an area of benefit for financing specific improvements in the Valencia area of the Santa Clarita Valley, within Los Angeles County and City of Santa Clarita jurisdictions. Improvements include, but are not limited to new and improved roadways, bridges, intersecfions, and interchanges. Formation of the Valencia Bridge and Major Thoroughfare District, hereto after referred to as the District, will provide an equitable financing mechanism by which new development within an identified area will share the costs of providing necessary improvements. State Subdivision Law and both the Los Angeles County and City of Santa Clarita codes authorize the use of bridge and major thoroughfare construction fee districts for the funding and construction of improvements, provided these facilities are identified on the local agency's adopted transportation element of its General Plan. Based on the transportation needs in this area of the Santa Clarita Valley, and the limitations of other funding sources, this funding method has been determined to be the best alternative to provide needed improvements. This report describes the concept and mechanics of the District Information included in this report will enable subject property owners to determine the fee to be assessed against their property W and when it is developed. NEED FOR DisTRICT FORMATION Certain areas of Los Angeles County and the City of Santa Clarita have topographical features that limit the ability to provide access. Traditionally, the County has cooperatively assisted developers in the funding and construction of needed highway improvements. However, gas tax revenues, the traditional source of highway funding, have not been made available for improvements in the Santa Clarita Valley. The District shall pursue funding for regional improvements from City, County, State, and Federal agencies, thus allowing for a reduction in the adopted construction fee. The current highway system in the Santa Clarita Valley is considered adequate for existing development. However, at this time public funding resources do not adequately provide highway improvements for the future anticipated development in the Santa Clarita Valley. Thus, the construction of additional highway improvements would serve to directly benefit properties subject to future development, both inside and outside the District. The District has been designed to accommodate the needs of future development anticipated by both the Los Angeles County and the City of Santa Clarita General Plans. The District not only mitigates traffic anticipated by development occurring within the District, but also mitigates traffic targeted for the District as a result of development occurring outside County of Los Angeles City of Santa Clente Report on the Elridge and Major Thoroughfare Construction Fee District for Valencia the District. Therefore, formation of the District will provide local, regional, and inter -regional benefits. Interchange improvements will provide regional benefits that extend beyond the District boundary and are eligible for local, state, and federal funding. The District intends to pursue all potential sources of out -of -district funding for these improvements including, but not limited to, State and Federal Gas Taxes, Propositions A and C sales tax, Transportation Planning and Development Sales Tax on Gasoline, County Transportation Tax, State Transportation Improvement Program funding, Federal Transportation Efficiency Act for the 21si Century funds, State and Federal Highway Trust Funds, special grants and other sources that may be available. If any outside funding is received, the District costs will be revised, and the fee will be adjusted accordingly. A development analysis based on filed tentative maps, and where no map is filed, the land use maps of both the Santa Clarita Valley Area Plan and the City of Santa Clarita General Plan, shows that an additional estimated 9,492 residential units and 691.9 acres of office commercialAndustrial development are expected to be built within the Valencia District boundary. County of Los Angeles City of Santa Clante 2 Report on the Bridge and Major Thoroughl'are Construction Fee Distnct for Valencia A. AUTHORrry The State of California Government Code Section 66484, regarding Subdivisions, gives local agencies the authority to adopt local ordinances that "may require the payment of a fee as a condition of approval of a final map or as a condition of issuing a building permit for purposes of defraying the actual or estimated cost of constructing bridges over waterways, railways, freeways, and canyons, or constructing major thoroughfares." The local adopted ordinance must refer to the circulation element of its general plan, provide for a public hearing, provide for the establishment of boundaries of an area of benefit and provide for the identification of the costs, a fair method of allocation of costs to the area of benefit and a fair fee apportionment (to be disclosed at the public hearing). Further, the local ordinance must provide that the payment of fees shall not be required unless the major thoroughfares are in addition to or a reconstruction of any existing thoroughfares serving the area at the time of district adoption, and that the planned bridge facility is an original bridge serving the area, or an addition to any existing bridge facility serving the area, at the time of district adoption. It must further provide that if owners of more than one-half of the area of property to be benefited by the improvement(s) file proper written protests, the district proceedings as proposed shall be abandoned for at least one year. The local ordinance allows acceptance of considerations in lieu of the payment of fees, permits a local agency to advance money from its general fund or road fund to be reimbursed from bridge and major thoroughfare funds, permits a local agency to incur an interest bearing indebtedness for the construction of bridge or major thoroughfare facilities, and does not preclude an agency from providing funds for the construction of bridge or major thoroughfare facilities to defray costs not allocated to the area of benefit. The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors adopted Ordinance No. 82-0050 on March 2, 1982, adding Section 21.32.200 to the Los Angeles County Code, providing for the establishment of bridge and major thoroughfare construction fees to be paid by subdivider or building permit applicants. Within the City of Santa Clarita, payment of such fees is established by City of Santa Clarita Subdivision Code Section 16.21.190. These codes are consistent with the requirements and provisions of the State law (County Code Section 21.32.200 and City Code Section 16.21.190 are included in this report as Attachment J.) B. PURPOSE The purpose of the District is to fund improvements needed by new development in the Santa Clarita Valley. County of Los Angeles City of Santa Clarke 4 Report on the Bridge and Major Thoroughfare Construction Fee District for Vauiencia C. CONCEPT As authorized by statutes cited above, the adoption of a specific area of benefit permits the County/City to levy a fee against future development located within the area of benefit. This funding method appropriately assesses developments, which create the need for additional improvements, for the additional public facility costs. The charge is levied in proportion to the estimated number of trips generated by the development which is translated into Factored Development Unit (see description of FDU on page 17 below). The adoption of this type of funding district does not charge existing development. The District fee is collected at the time of recordation of a final map or just prior to the issuance of a building permit (City of Santa Clarita only). County of Los Angeies 0 CNy of Santa CUdta 5 Report on the Bridge and Major Thoroughfare Construction Fee District for Valencia A. BACKGROUND Historically, access to new development has been provided cooperatively by the County and land developers. The County funded its share with Gas Tax Funds. Land development was primarily concentrated in flatter areas, expanding away from urban centers. Public facilities were constructed to accommodate this expansion. In recent years, development has extended to outlying areas where topography is more rugged and restrictive. This geographical characteristic has dictated development locations. It has also increased the cost of providing these necessary public facilities, including roadways. B. EASTING CIRCULATION AND PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS The primary road network for the Valencia area consists of Interstate 5, existing and future State Route 126, three interchanges with Interstate 5, and ten arterials which are classified as either Major or Secondary Highways on both the City and County Highway Plans. (See Figure 2 and Figure 3). The improvements described below generally include: full -width grading, base, pavement, sidewalks, bus turnouts, bike lanes (where applicable), fully improved and signalized intersections, street lighting, utility relocation, necessary drainage structures, and full -width decking with footings for proposed bridges and interchanges. Except for State highways, right of -way acquisition will be dedicated by individual development projects. Please note that the descriptions provided for improvements are for purposes of defining a scope of work for cost estimating only and are subject to change at the improvement's final design stage. 1 . MCBEAN PARKWAY. is currently paved for 6 lanes but is striped for 4 lanes from 1-5 to Copper Hill Drive, except between Valencia Boulevard and Magic Mountain Parkway which is fully -improved to 8 lanes (striped for 7). Improvements proposed for this roadway include striping for 6 lanes, full -width improvements to 6 lanes between Magic Mountain Parkway and Newhall Ranch Road, and bridge widening from 6 to 8 lanes over the Santa Clara River. 2. MAGIC MOUNTAIN PARKWAY (SR -126): varies from 2 to 6 lanes from 1-5 to McBean Parkway, and is paved for 6 lanes, striped for 4, between Bouquet Canyon Road to Valencia Boulevard. From McBean Parkway to Valencia Boulevard, Magic Mountain Parkway varies from 6 to 8 lanes. Ultimately, the District would share responsibility for financing the construction of a fully -improved right-of-way to 8 -lanes, from 1-5 to Valencia Boulevard, to be completed in four phases (Phase I already complete). 3. NEwHALL RAIVCH ROAD. currently exists as a 44ane roadway from Bouquet Canyon Road to McBean Parkway, and 6 lanes from McBean to Dickason Drive. The District Vill fully improve Newhall Ranch Road to 8 lanes from 1-5 to Bouquet Canyon Road. County of Los Angeles 0 City of Santa Clarita 6 Report on the Bridge and Major Thoroughfare Construction Fee District for Valencia 4. VALENciA BoULEVARD: exists as a 6 -lane roadway from 1-5 to Bouquet Canyon Road. This roadway is proposed to be improved to 8 lanes from 1-5 to McBean Parkway. 5. CoPPER HILL DRIVE: is currently paved and striped for 4 lanes between Seco Canyon Road to San Francisquito Canyon Road. From San Francisquito Canyon Road to McBean Parkway, Copper Hill Drive is now paved for 6 lanes but striped for 4. Ultimately, Copper Hill Drive will be constructed as 6 lanes from the end of existing Rye Canyon Road to Seco Canyon Road, except between Newhall Ranch Road and Decoro Drive which will be 8 lanes. Additionally, a 6 -lane bridge will be constructed over San Francisquito Canyon Road. 6. DEcogo DRi currently exists and will remain as a 4 -lane roadway between Seco Canyon Road and McBean Parkway. Decoro will be fully -improved to 4 lanes between Copper Hill Drive and McBean Parkway, including a 44ane bridge over San Francisquito Creek. 7. RYE CANYON RoAD: is currently paved for 6 lanes but striped for 4 between The Old Road and Avenue Scott. Rye Canyon is proposed to be fully -improved to 6 lanes from Avenue Scoff to Newhall Ranch Road, and restriped from 4 to 6 lanes from 1-5 to Newhall Ranch Road. 8. AvENuE Sco now exists as a 4 -lane roadway between Rye Canyon Road and Avenue Rockefeller. District funding is proposed to extend Avenue Scott with full -width improvements to McBean Parkway, including a bridge over San Francisquito Creek. 9. SAN FRANcisauiTo CANYON RoADIMcBEAN PARKWAY: San Francisquito Canyon now exists as a 2 -lane roadway from Copper Hill Drive as an extension of McBean Parkway to the northerly District boundary. This roadway is proposed to be improved to 4 lanes. 10. CASTAIC ROA now exists only on the County Master Plan of Highways and the City of Santa Clarita Circulation Element. This thoroughfare is to be constructed as a 2 -lane roadway from Newhall Ranch Road to the northerly District boundary. 11. VALENCIA BOULEvARDII-5 IN7-ERcHANGE,. This interchange currently exists as a two lane overcrossing with northbound and southbound diamond off -ramps and loop on -ramps. The District proposes to replace the overcrossing on Route 5, with a 7 lane access; to provide the southbound diamond on-ramp augmenting the existing loop on -ramps to complete a modified partial cloverleaf interchange; and to widen the existing southbound ramps and the northbound off -ramp. There are no alternative designs proposed for this interchange.' (Please see Attachment D). 12. MAGIC MOUNTAIN PARKWAY11-5 INTERCHANGE.. Currently exists as a tight diamond configuration, with a modified northbound off -ramp providing opposite direction traffic allowing access to Championship Way. Three alternatives for this interchange are currently proposed in the Draft Project Study Report under review by CALTRANS. Draft Project Report. County of Los Angeles 0 City of Santa Clarita 7 Report on the Bridge and Major Thoroughfare Construction Fee District for Valencia Alternative 1 proposes 30uthbound hook ramps and northbound direct ramps. The Old Road is proposed to be realigned westerly over a length of approximately 1000 meters to provide space for the ramp configuration and provide more storage capacity for the ramps. All existing ramps would be removed and reconstructed. The southbound off - ramp would be a single lane off -ramp with three lanes at the terminus with The Old Road. The southbound on-ramp would be three lanes at the intersection with The Old Road merging to a single lane at the entrance. The intersection would be located approximately 300 meters south of Magic Mountain Parkway. The northbound off -ramp would be a two lane off -ramp at the diverge with four lanes at the terminus with Magic Mountain Parkway. The northbound on-ramp would be two lanes at Magic Mountain Parkway merging to a single lane at the freeway entrance. Alternative 2 proposes a partial cloverleaf configuration with loop off-ramp3 (single lane) in both directions to Magic Mountain Parkway. The existing 30uthbound off -ramp would be reconstructed to join the new Magic Mountain Parkway profile and join the 1-5. This off -ramp would provide only we3tbound travel on Magic Mountain Parkway. A southbound loop off -ramp would be constructed to serve eastbound Magic Mountain Parkway. The southbound on-ramp would be constructed as a hook on-ramp with an intersection 200 meters south of Magic Mountain Parkway. The new southbound on-ramp would be three lanes at The Old Road merging to a single lane at the entrance. The existing northbound off -ramp would be replaced with a single lane off -ramp directing traffic to eastbound Magic Mountain Parkway. The northbound on-ramp would be reconstructed around the northbound loop off -ramp and provide three lanes at Magic Mountain Parkway merging to a single lane at the freeway entrance. Alternative 3 proposes to improve the existing diamond interchange configuration. The Old Road would be realigned approximately 70 meters to the west at Magic Mountain Parkway to provide better intersection spacing with the southbound ramps and widened to provide six lanes with provisions for right and dual left turns at Magic Mountain Parkway. Reconstruction of the interchange would provide improved intersection spacing. The southbound off -ramp would be a single lane off -ramp with four lanes at Magic Mountain Parkway. The southbound on-ramp would be two lanes at Magic Mountain Parkway merging to a single lane at the entrance. The northbound off -ramp would be a two lane off -ramp with four lanes at the terminus on Magic Mountain Parkway. The northbound on-ramp would be two lanes at Magic Mountain Parkway merging to a single lane at the freeway entrance2 (Please refer to Attachment E). 13. SR -12611-5 INTERCHANGE. This interchange currently exists as a partial interchange with a loop on-ramp and a diamond off -ramp in the southeast quadrant and directional ramps in the northwest and southwest quadrants. The existing interchange does not provide the westbound -northbound, or southbound -eastbound movements. Proposed improvements consist of two alternatives. Alternative A proposes the construction of a directional ramp in the northeast quadrant to accommodate the westbound to 2 Draft Project Study Report - April, 1998. County of Los Angeles 0 City of Santa Clarke 8 Report on the 9idge and Major Thoroughfare construction Fee DistrAct for Valencia northbound movement and realignmenl1reconstruction of the southbound directional ramps to intersect SR -126 opposite each other. The movements at this intersection on SR -126 would then be accommodated through a three-phase traffic signal. Alternative C proposes the construction of a directional ramp in the northeast quadrant of the I- S/SR-126 interchange to accommodate the westbound to northbound movement. To provide for the westbound to southbound movement, this altemative proposes the construction of a loop on-ramp in the northwest quadrant. The loop would pass through the end -bent of the existing 1-5/SR-126 separation before joining the southbound 1-5 mainline. The southbound off -ramp would be realigned/reconstructed to pass to the west of the loop ramp and intersect SR -126 at a right angle. The southbound to eastbound movement would be accommodated through a two-phase traffic signal. The merging end of the existing southbound off -ramp would also be relocated further to the west to allow for the construction of the southbound loop ramp. The eastbound to southbound directional ramp would be realigned/reconstructed as a two-lane freeway to freeway connector. At the merge to 1-5, the right lane would become an exclusive lane off to the Rye Canyon Road raMpS.3 (Please see Attachment F). In addition to the improvements listed above, the following intersections will be added or improved within the existing roadway network (See Figure 6, Page C-17).

THE AREA OF BENEFIT BOUNDARY The legal description of the area of benefit boundary is defined in Attachment A included herewith. It encompasses those properties which have yet to be developed and which will receive benefit from the improvements funded by the District. A map of the Area of Benefit is shown as Figure 1. The boundaries were determined by the 1-5 freeway, topographical features in the Valencia area, ownership/parcel lines, national forest land boundaries, and existing and future access. GENERAL BOUNDARY DESCRIPTION West Boundary Line The western district boundary follows the eastern section lines of Sections 20, 29 and private property lines of Section 32, Township 5 North, Range 18 West, San Bernardino Meridian. Further to the west, the boundary follows Interstate 5 from approximately the Biscailuz over -crossing to just north of the McBean Parkway Interchange. North Boundary Line The northern portion of the District boundary is formed by the Angeles National Forest. The northern boundary of the western area east of interstate 5 follows private property and extends to the southern terminus of Biscailuz Drive. East Boundary Line The eastern boundary generally follows a major north -south ridgeline with consideration for recorded subdivision boundaries and ownership. This boundary is shared with the Bouquet Canyon Bridge and Major Thoroughfare District. The boundary extends south from the National Forest boundary, east of San Francisquito Canyon Road, along private property west of Seco Canyon Road. The boundary runs along Bouquet Canyon Road and San Fernando Road, south of Soledad Canyon Road and then extends to the west, parallel with the McBean Parkway interchange with 1-5. South Boundary Lin The south boundary line is shared with the Via Princessa Bridge and Major Thoroughfare District. It extends from 1-5, north of the McBean Parkway interchange, along private property across McBean to San Fernando Road. B. DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS The analysis in Attachment I shows that additional 9,492 residential units, 428.8 acres of County of Los Angelies 0 CNy of Santa Clads 15 Report an the Bridge and M*r Thoroughfare Construction Fee Distdot for Valencia commercial, 225.9 acres of industrial use, and 37.2 acres of schools are expected to be built on land located within the Area of Benefit. The estimated number of residential units for remaining vacant lands within the District is based on the land use categories designated in the City of Santa Clarita General Plan and the SCVAP. In cases of projects which are currently filed (pending projects) within the City and County, the data shown on the pending tentative map was assumed. C. PROPOSED IMPROVEmE NTS AND ESTIMATED COSTS Improvements to be funded by the District are based on a determination of the traffic needs of remaining development, and an analysis of the improvements designated on the highway plans of the adopted City and County General Plans. Improvements and associated costs have been estimated for purposes of determining the value of the District. Actual scope of work and costs may change as the improvements approach the final design stage. The proposed improvements are shown in Figures 4 through 7 and described in Attachment C. Total costs for the improvements are estimated to be approximately $118,412,494. A summary of estimated costs is shown in Attachment H. Proposed costs of District improvements include construction costs based on "prevailing wageo, cost of materials, design costs and permitting fees (considered "soft costs% shown in Table 1 below), and administrative/management fee (5% of the total of improvement cost plus soft cost). TABLE I SOFT COST PERCENTAGES D. IMPROVEMENT PHASING Generally, the timing and phasing of construction of District improvements will be determined by when and where development *occurs, as well as how many units. The amount of funds received may also determine the timing of improvements. County of Los Angeles 0 City of Santa Cladta 16 Intersection Storm Drain Road I Bridge .........................

IMPROVEMENT PHASING Generally, the timing and phasing of construction of District improvements will be determined by when and where development *occurs, as well as how many units. The amount of funds received may also determine the timing of improvements. County of Los Angeles 0 City of Santa Cladta 16 Report an the Bridge and Major Thoroughfare CDnatrudion F*@ Distnd for Vallencta TRA"ic ANALYsis The existing highway system adequately handles the traffic generated by existing development located within the Area of Benefit. Further, existing development would not directly benefit from the additional highway improvements if additional development did not occur. However, District improvements are expected to improve circulation on a Valley -wide basis. Based on the allowable plan densities, filed tentative maps, and past and current development trends within the District, it is estimated that 56% of the future units will be single-family, 23% will be townhouse -type units, and the remaining 21% will be apartment units. Non-residential uses are projected as 62% commercial, 33% industrial, and 5% schools. It is estimated that an additional 9,492 residential units and 691.9 acres of non- residential area will be developed over the next twenty years within the District, and that the current highway system cannot handle the traffic generated from this additional development without the District improvements. F. THE CONs-rRUCTION FEE To ensure equitability of construction fee assignment, the proposed fee is proportionate to the degree with which future developments benefit from the proposed improvements. Therefore, the proportionate share is based on the number of peak -hour trips generated by the proposed development. Trip generation is translated into factored development units (FDUs). One factored development unit is equivalent to 10 trips and corresponds with the generation rate of one single family dwelling unit. All other land uses are assigned a multiplier based on the rate it generates traffic compared to a single family dwelling. This factor is then multiplied by the Districts adopted construction fee resulting in a project's proportionate share of fees. The multipliers are assigned as follows: 0 Condorrownhome .................. 0.8 FDU (8 trips per unit) N Apartment ............................... 0.7 FDU (7 trips per unit) a Commercial ............. 5.0 FDUs (50 trips per gross acre) a Industrial ................. 3.0 FDUs (30 trips per gross acre) The adoption of this type of funding district does not levy any fees against existing development. Fees are collected at the time of recordation of a final map or just prior to building permit issuance. Fees are capped upon execution of the Bridge and Major Thoroughfare Agreement (a sample of which is provided as Attachment K). FDUs for recorded subdivisions which are located within the area of benefit were not County of Los Angeles 0 City of Santa Clarta 17 Report on the Bridge and M*r 7'horoughfare Construction Fee District for Valencia included in the fee calculation4. Instead, the revenue from units which have previously paid fees was subtracted from the total construction cost prior to calculating the fee. The construction fee is calculated by dividing the total cost of district improvements, minus the fees already paid by recorded tracts, then divided by the total number of FDUs. For a breakdown of the total number of FDLIs in the District, please see Attachment 1. If a condition of project approval requires that a landowner dedicate a portion of its property as right of way for a State improvement, then the landowner will receive credit at fair market value for the property dedicated. However, if right-of-way is required to be dedicated for a City/County improvement, as a condition of project approval, the landowner receives no credit for the value of the dedicated property. if any local improvement requires land acquisition from a third party, the cost of property will be added to the estimated cost of the improvement. G. PROVISIONS FOR UPDATING COSTS AND UNIT INFORMATION Projections for development of the land and the cost of the improvements located within the area of benefit may change over time. Project scope may change due to refinement and the need to comply with requirements imposed by other agencies, including, but not limited to, the Califomia Department of Transportation (Caltrans). Therefore, in order to equitably assess future development as well as collect sufficient funds to complete the improvements, it is necessary to periodically re-evaluate the cost of the improvements and the type of development being constructed within the Area of Benefit and adjust the fee accordingly. This District proposes a bi-annual evaluation of both building trends and the cost of District projects. With this information, the District fee may be increased or decreased only so as to match the revised District cost estimates for the remaining improvements. Any increase in District fees will be subject to the approval of both the City of Santa Clarita and the County of Los Angeles through the public hearing process. H. CONSTRUCTION IN LIEU OF PAYING FEES Cost to construct District improvements, as described in this report, will be eligible for District credit in lieu of future fee payments. If the cost of the completed and accepted improvements exceeds the required fees, the developer would be given a credit which can be used to offset future bridge and thoroughfare fees of future subdivisions within the District, or K adequate funds are available, the developer may receive a cash reimbursement Therefore, a developer has the following options with regard to construction of District improvements: 4 The exception is Tract 52206, and Parcel Maps 23349 and 20795 which have B & T agreements which commit them to pay the fee in piece at District formation. Therefore, these projects have been counted as future projects in the District as their Letters of Credit will be released and the now fee paid at District formation.

Implementation of "prevailing wagen labor is required for the construction of District improvements in order for a developer to receive cash reimbursement from the DistriCt5. This prevailing wage requirement is only to be applied to improvement projects that commence subsequent to the formation of the District. Each developer will submit records of construction costs to the County. It will be the responsibility of the County to keep track of the balance of required fees and credits. A sample agreement is attached as Attachment K as wall as a sample uRequest for Credit for Completed Improvementso form (Attachment Q. 1. DISTRicT FuNDS Any fees collected by development projects within the District are to be restricted to the construction of District -identified improvements only. Transfer of funds or loans for improvements outside the Valencia District is prohibited. However, it would be permissible for clevelopers/landowners to withdrawal any funds from the District once improvements are completed and approved. To receive credit for constructed and approved improvements, the proper documentation must be submitted to the County. No documentation for "soft costs" is necessary as they are already accounted for in District fees'. Improvements Will be accepted for maintenance by either the City or the County upon completion and field acceptance. After field acceptance of constructed improvement, credit withdrawal of District funds is authorized. Along with the "Request for Credit for Completed Improvements" form, copies of contracts, change orders, and purchase orders which detail construction costs will be provided to the County. Upon submittal of a request for the withdrawal of credits due, review and determination by the County will be completed within 30 days. J.

The existing interchange does not provide the westbound -northbound, or southbound -eastbound movements. Proposed improvements consist of two alternatives. Alternative A proposes the construction of a directional ramp in the northeast quadrant to accommodate the westbound to northbound movement and realignment/reconstruction of the southbound directional ramps to intersect SR -126 opposite each other. The movements at this intersection on SR -126 would then be accommodated through a three-phase traffic signal (Please see Attachment D). Alternative C proposes the construction of a directional ramp in the northeast quadrant of the 1-5/SR-126 interchange to accommodate the westbound to northbound movement. To provide for the westbound to southbound movement, this alterinative proposes the construction of a loop on-ramp in the northwest quadrant. The loop would pass through the end -bent of the existing 1-5/SR-126 separation before joining the southbound 1-5 mainline. The southbound off -ramp would be County of Los Angeles City of Santa Clanta C-13 Report on the Bridge and Major Thoroughfare Construction Fee District for Valencia realigned/reconstructed to pass to the west of the loop ramp and intersect SR -126 at a right angle. The southbound to eastbound movement would be accommodated through a two- phase traffic signal. The merging end of the existing southbound off -ramp would also be relocated further to the west to allow for the construction of the southbound loop ramp. The eastbound to southbound directional ramp would be realigned/reconstructed as a two-lane freeway to freeway connector. At the merge to 1-5, the right lane would become an exclusive lane off to the Rye Canyon Road ramps.7 (Please see Attachment D). MAGIC MOUNTAIN PARKWAY/1-5 INTERCHANGE: Currently exists as a fight diamond configuration, with a modified northbound off -ramp providing opposite direction traffic allowing access to Championship Way. Three alternatives for this interchange are currently proposed in the Draft Project Study Report under review by CALTRANS. Alternative 1 proposes southbound hook ramps and northbound direct ramps. The Old Road is proposed to be realigned westerly over a length of approximately 1000 meters to provide space for the ramp configuration and provide more storage capacity for the ramps. All existing ramps would be removed and reconstructed. The southbound off -ramp would be a single lane off -ramp with three lanes at the terminus with The Old Road. The southbound on-ramp would be three lanes at the intersection with The Old Road merging to a single lane at the entrance. The intersection would be located approximately 300 meters south of Magic Mountain Parkway. The northbound off -ramp would be a two lane off -ramp at the diverge with four lanes at the terminus with Magic Mountain Parkway. The northbound on-ramp would be two lanes at Magic Mountain Parkway merging to a single lane at the freeway entrance (Please refer to Attachment F). Alternative 2 proposes a partial cloverleaf configuration with loop off -ramps (single lane) in both directions to Magic Mountain Parkway. The existing southbound off -ramp would be reconstructed to join the new Magic Mountain Parkway profile and join the 1-5. This off -ramp would provide only westbound travel on Magic Mountain Parkway. A southbound loop off -ramp would be constructed to serve eastbound Magic Mountain Parkway. The southbound on-ramp would be constructed as a hook on- ramp with an intersection 200 meters south of Magic Mountain Parkway. The new southbound on-ramp would be three lanes at The Old Road merging to a single lane at the entrance. The existing northbound off -ramp would be replaced with a single lane off -ramp directing traffic to eastbound Magic Mountain Parkway. The northbound on-ramp would be reconstructed around the northbound loop off -ramp and provide three lanes at Magic Mountain Parkway merging to a single lane at the freeway entrance (Please see Attachment F). Alternative 3 proposes to improve the existing diamond interchange configuration. The Old Road would be realigned approximately 70 meters to the west at Magic Mountain Parkway to provide better intersection spacing with the southbound ramps and widened to provide six lanes with provisions for right and dual left turns at Magic Mountain Parkway (Please refer to Attachment F). Reconstruction of the interchange would provide improved intersection spacing. The southbound off -ramp would be a single lane off -ramp with four I Draft Project Study — June, 1998. County of Los Angeles # City of Santa Clanta C-14 Report an the Bridge and Major Thoroughfare Construction Fee District for Valencia lanes at Magic Mountain Parkway. The southbound on-ramp would be two lanes at Magic Mountain Parkway merging to a single lane at the entrance. The northbound off -ramp would be a two lane off -ramp with four lanes at the terminus on Magic Mountain Parkway. The northbound on-ramp would be two lanes at Magic Mountain Parkway merging to a single lane at the freeway entrance.8 I VALENCIA BOULEVARD/1-5 INTERCHANGE: This interchange currently exists as a two lane overcrossing with northbound and southbound diamond off -ramps and loop on -ramps. The District proposes to replace the overcrossing on Route 5, with a 7 lane access; to provide the southbound diamond on-ramp augmenting the existing loop on -ramps to complete a modified partial Cloverleaf interchange; and to widen the ex:isting southbound ramps and the northbound off -ramp. There are no alternative designs proposed for this interchange.9 (Please see Attachment E). Draft Project Study Report —April, 1998. Draft Project Report.
