The Circulation Element of the City's General Plan identifies the ultimate roadway network for
General Plan build -out, which includes Golden Valley Road. This roadway is also identified in
the Bridge & Thoroughfare (B&T) District and represents an important additional roadway link
to improve travel within the City. The construction of Golden Valley Road calls for the
development of an interchange that bridges Soledad Canyon Road, and will eventually cross the
Santa Clara River and connect to the future Newhall Ranch Road.
The overcrossing will span Golden Triangle Road, one set of railroad tracks which are under
MTA's jurisdiction, and Soledad Canyon Road. The purchase of this parcel will facilitate the
construction of the interchange. The parcel size is approximately 436 square feet.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
1. City Council not approve the Purchase and Sale Agreement, and direct staff to initiate
eminent domain proceedings to acquire right-of-way needed to accommodate the future
Golden Valley Road/Soledad Canyon Road Interchange project.
2. Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT

No. 53005301. Additional funds of approximately $200.00 will be needed to facilitate the
transfer of title. Adequate funds are also available in Account No. S3005301 to pay for title
transfer fees.
