Background:
The Alder Drive @ EID Canal - Bridge Replacement Project (Project) is located approximately 2.5 miles southwest of the community of Pollock Pines. The existing bridge is functionally obsolete and does not meet current traffic needs due to its narrow width. The new bridge is proposed to be two lanes to meet current traffic needs and current design standards. Construction is anticipated to begin in spring 2016.
Reason for Recommendation:
The Department of Transportation (Department) was awarded a Highway Bridge Program grant for the Project. The Project is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The CEQA Mitigated Negative Declaration and the NEPA Finding of No Significant Impact will be prepared and brought back to the Board for approval.
The research of all potentially affected parcels and the acquisition of portions of the subject parcels are necessary from the subject property owners to enable the construction of the Project improvements. In order for the Department to research title document records and prepare for negotiations with the subject parcel owners, the Department is requesting authorization from the Board to proceed with the acquisition process, including ordering and payment of title reports for the land rights to be acquired.
Action to be taken by the Department following Board approval:
The Department will proceed with the acquisition process for the subject parcels referenced herein, including ordering and payment of title reports for the portions of the subject parcels necessary to construct the Project.
