Title
Community Development Agency, Transportation Division, recommending the Board approve and authorize the Chair to sign Amendment 1 to Grant Agreement CTA 12 010 with the California Tahoe Conservancy for the Golden Bear Erosion Control Project (CIP No. 95176) to extend the project into an adjoining area.
FUNDING: California Tahoe Conservancy.
Body
Fiscal Impact/Change to Net County Cost
There is no Net County Cost associated with this agenda item. The Transportation Division (Transportation) programmed the CTA 12 010 grant funds within the 2014 Capital Improvement Program as part of the Tahoe Environmental Improvement Program section and within the Fiscal Year 14/15 budget.
Background
Site Improvement Grant Agreement CTA 12 010 was originally authorized by the California Tahoe Conservancy (CTC) Board on December 14, 2012 and was approved by the County Board of Supervisors on March 26, 2013 (See Version 1 of this same Legistar Item).
Reason for Recommendation
Proposed Amendment 1 to Agreement CTA 12 010 adjusts the original project boundary and extends the project boundary to adjoining areas. CTC has approved the project boundary adjustment to the original boundary. The new project boundary will allow the Transportation to add additional water quality improvements.
The amount budgeted for direct construction costs under Agreement CTA 12 010 is $135,000. The construction contract amount for the Golden Bear Erosion Control Project is $113,957, leaving a surplus balance of $21,043 to be used for construction. With the proposed boundary adjustment, Transportation plans to add rock toe protection to an area where erosion is occurring, with the work being completed by Transportation maintenance staff. The cost of the additional work is anticipated to be $5,000. The remaining balance will be reserved for contingency purposes.
Clerk of the Board Follow Up Actions
1) The Clerk of the Board will obtain the Chair's signature on the five originals of the subject grant Amendment.
2) The Clerk of the Board will return all five partially-executed original sets and a certified copy of the Minute Order to Transportation for CTC review and approval.
Action to be taken by Transportation following Board approval:
1. Upon receiving the fully-executed Amendment from the CTC, Transportation will forward an original to the Clerk of the Board's office and retain a copy for its files.
