Fiscal Impact/Change to Net County Cost:
The Latrobe Road Widening Project, Phase 2, including the subject property acquisition costs of $2,025,540.00 for the fee title, the Slope Easement's, and for the Temporary Construction Easement's (TCE) and $8,000.00 for the title and escrow fees, for a total of $2,033,540.00, will be paid from prepaid El Dorado Hills Traffic Impact Mitigation (EDH TIM) fees paid by the Valley View development. Due to the anticipated timing for this purchase the appropriations were included in the FY 06-07 budget instead of the proposed FY 07-08 budget. With the purchase occuring during FY 07-08, the attached budget transfer is required to carry funds forward from the prior fiscal year.
Background:
The El Dorado County Department of Transportation proposes to improve a portion of the Latrobe Road corridor in and near the community of El Dorado Hills. The project limits are on Latrobe Road between White Rock Road and Golden Foothill Parkway and White Rock Road from Latrobe Road west to Manchester. The subject parcel is located on the west side of Latrobe Road south of the proposed realingment of White Rock Road.
On April 5, 2005, staff asked for and received authorization to proceed with acquisitions for this project and Seevers Jorgan Ziegenmeyer performed the appraisal to determine the value of the fee title, Slope Easement's, and TCE's area.
Reason for Recommendation:
The acquisition of land rights affecting the subject parcels is necessary from the subject property owner in order to enable the construction of the project. The acquisition involves fee title, Slope Easement's, and TCE's for APN's 117-160-16, 15, and 14 (formerly APN's 108-470-16, 15, and 14), owned by El Dorado Hills Investors.
Action to be taken following Board approval:
1) Chairman of the Board to execute the Acquisition Agreement for Public Purposes and Certificates of Acceptance for the associated deeds, affecting a portion of the subject parcels.
2) Board Clerk to return all executed documents to the DOT R/W Unit for final processing.
3) Director of Transportation or designee to sign the escrow instructions and any related escrow documents pertaining to the transaction, including authorization for and payment to the subject property owner and title company.
