CITY OF DUBLIN
AGENDA STATEMENT
City Council Meeting Date: October 24, 1994
SUBJECT:
Authorization for Traffic Impact Fee study
for Eastern Dublin
Report by: Public Works Director Lee Thompson
EXHIBITS ATTACHED:
None
RECOMMENDAT~
Authorize the City Manager to enter into an agreement with
consultant to study and prepare a Traffic Impact Fee Study
for the Eastern Dublin specific Plan Area.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
Estimated consultant's fee to be $18,000 on a time-and-
materials basis. The cost of developing this Traffic Impact
Fee will be added to and recovered through the levy of the
Traffic Impact Fee in Eastern Dublin.
DESCRIPTION: The City of Dublin is in the process of reviewing a
development proposal from Homart for a shopping center on Alameda county property,
and annexing a large area of Eastern Dublin. Future development in these areas will
necessitate major transportation network improvements for which a mechanism must be
established for funding. This mechanism is required as part of the Plan's
environmental mitigation measures. At present, the City has been using a Traffic
Impact Fee to calculate a developer's share of costs for public improvements.
This Study is time sensitive as the initial draft report is needed to proceed with
the Homart project. The reason that this agenda statement is less definitive than
the normal approval of a consultant agreement is that the scope of services is not
yet complete. It is not expected to be complete until mid-week following this
Council meeting and three weeks will have elapsed before the next City Council
meeting due to a five-Monday month.
Staff has been meeting with the Homart developers, Alameda County Staff (as property
owners), and Homart's traffic Engineer (Barton-Aschman), to develop the scope of
work as an adjunct to the Homart timeline.
staff recommends that Council authorize the City Manager to enter into a
City/consultant Agreement for t his work on a time-and-materia1s basis not to exceed
$18,000. Staff will report back to the Council at its next regular meeting with a
contract and scope of work, as well as a time frame for the completion of the work.
