Budget Change Form
RECOMMENDATION:
1)
Establish a new CIP Project - Crossridge Road Trail
Connection Improvements, and
Approve a Budget Change in the amount of $30,000 for
completion of this project in Fiscal Year 2006-2007.
2)
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
Staff is recommending that costs associated with preparation of the
environmental document and minor improvements be shared equally
between the two cities. These costs are estimated at $30,000 for
preparation of the environmental document, preparation of the
necessary easement documents and for construction of a pedestrian
gate and other related improvements. Therefore, Dublin's share of
the project would be $15,000.
DESCRIPTION: At the November 7 meeting of the City Council, Staff presented the
proposed project to connect the Alamo Creek Bicycle Path in Dublin to the Bent Creek Open Space Trail
in San Ramon at the coterminus at Crossridge Road. Council determined that a pedestrian gate would be
constructed adjacent to the existing Emergency Vehicle Access (EVA) and that separate easements would
be prepared over the 5 foot strip owned by the City of Dublin for both the EVA and the pedestrian gate
access, and executed once the environmental process was completed.
Once the environmental process is complete, the City of Dublin would grant an easement for Emergency
Vehicle Access (EVA) over the portion of Parcel H that abuts the current gate, and a Knox Box would be
installed by San Ramon for EVA access in an emergency. At all other times, the larger vehicular gate will

remain closed. In addition, the City of Dublin would grant a bike/pedestrian access easement over the
portion of Parcel H that will abut the new gate when constructed. Once these access easements are in
place, an agreement for opening and closing the gate will be prepared and executed between the two
cities, the City of San Ramon will construct the new gate for bike/pedestrian access, and renovate that
portion of the current gate and fencing that requires repair.
The cost to conduct the environmental analysis is $23,950 to prepare a negative declaration for the
amended project. San Ramon staff estimates the cost of the pedestrian gate and related improvements to
be $2,000. There would also be administrative costs for coordinating the environmental document and
preparing the necessary easement documents which would be approximately $4,050. It is recommended
that the two cities share the total cost of the project, making Dublin's share approximately $15,000.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council: 1) establish a new CIP Project - Crossridge Road Trail
Connection Improvements, and 2) approve a budget change in the amount of $30,000 for completion of
this project in Fiscal Year 2006-2007.
