It is my RECOMMENDATION: Approve resolution. DISCUSSION: Engineering staff will be submitting to the California Department of Transportation by March 25, 1980, the plans, specifications, cost estimates and right-of-way certification for the widening of Third Avenue from "G" to "K" Streets. The construction of this project is budgeted in the City's 1979 and 1980 Capital Improvement Program. The City will be partially reimbursed for the cost of this project with Federal Aid Urban Funds. A portion of the City's project abuts the County's new South Bay Regional Center between "H" and "I" Streets. The County, as a condition of the City issuing them a building permit, is required to construct additional improvements consisting of pavement, curb, gutter and sidewalk along the westerly half of Third Avenue between "H" and "I" Streets. Construction of these additional improvements by the County also requires that the County dedicate to the City of Chula Vista additional right-of-way for the street improvements. The City's project requires the relocation of the traffic signals at the intersections. of Third Avenue and "H" and Third Avenue and "I" Streets. These traffic signals will be relocated within the additional right-of- way which the County Board of Supervisors granted to the City on March 4, 1980. The City stands a good chance of receiving additional funds from the State for the widening of Third Avenue if the City can submit its right- of-way certification and cost estimate to the State by March 21, 1980. Before the Development Services Administrator can sign the documents certifying that all right-of-way has been acquired for the Third Avenue project, it is necessary for the City Council to accept the easement for street purposes which was granted by the County Board of Supervisors on March 4, 1980. The executed document conveying the right-of-way to the City was delivered to staff on Monday, March 17, 1980. A transparency is available for Council viewing.
