Title
Community Development Agency, Transportation Division, recommending the Board adopt and authorize the Chair to sign Resolution 012-2016 approving the performance period extension of the agreements listed in the Resolution for one (1) year from the current performance date if the project is not completed by said performance date.
FUNDING: N/A
Body
DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION
Transportation Division (Transportation) is recommending the Board adopt this Resolution in order to streamline the Subdivision Improvements Agreement Amendment (Amendment) process. Once the amendment is prepared and approved by Transportation it will be delivered to the Board Clerk to obtain the Chair’s signature.
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
It has been Transportation’s practice to bring to the Board a separate agenda item each time a Developer requests a one year extension. The listed one year performance period extensions will not impact the original bonds or change the conditions of approval; this Amendment’s sole purpose is to extend the performance period needed to complete the project. To improve efficiency and reduce staff time associated with multiple agenda items, Transportation proposes a single agenda item each year that consolidates all Amendments that may come before the Board in that calendar year if they are not completed. Other items that make more extensive changes to the Agreements will still be brought to the Board as individual agenda items.
ALTERNATIVES
Continue to process individual Amendments throughout the year, requiring additional staff time and cost versus the proposed process.
OTHER DEPARTMENT / AGENCY INVOLVEMENT
County Counsel
CAO RECOMMENDATION
Chief Administrative Office recommends moving staff's recommendations. County Counsel provided written notice of approval for the referenced resolution.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The requested Board action reduces County staff time/cost associated with Transportation staff not having to prepare individual staff reports, Community Development Agency and Chief Administrative Office's staff not having to review the individual reports and the Board of Supervisors not having to review or act on each separate item. The requested Board action has no direct fiscal impact or Net County Cost, but increases efficiencies.
CLERK OF THE BOARD FOLLOW UP ACTIONS
1. The Clerk will obtain the Chair’s signature on two (2) originals of the Resolution.
2. The Clerk will return one (1) copy of the signed Resolution to CDA; Transportation; Andrew Gaber.
