FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
The purchase price of the real property is $400,000. This acquisition
will be entirely funded by the Eastern Dublin Traffic Impact Fee
Program.
DESCRIPTION: At build out, Tassajara Road is planned to be a six-lane roadway
from 1-580 to the County line. A six-lane roadway is necessary to accommodate the City's future
development and anticipated development in Contra Costa County. Contra Costa developers have
already provided funding for their share of the improvement costs. The City Council has adopted a
precise alignment that specifies the exact location of the proposed roadway. A significant portion of
the Bragg/Silva property, which is an approximately 1.7 acre parcel between the existing right of way
and Tassajara Creek, is within the future right of way. Development of the remainder of the property
is constrained by the creek and the creek setbacks required by the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan.

The Bragg/Silva property owners requested that the City consider acquiring their property, and the parties
entered into negotiations that resulted in a draft agreement to purchase the property for a total purchase
price of $400,000. The proposed Purchase and Sale Agreement (Exhibit A of the Resolution) calls for,
among other things, the City to take the property "as is." The Purchase and Sale Agreement also recites
that the purchase is being made under threat of condemnation. The City will pay all escrow and closing
costs. The Purchase and Sale Agreement calls for a closing within 30 days of opening escrow; the closing
date is anticipated to be on or prior to November 5, 2007.
When the City Council adopted the ultimate right of way lines for Tassajara Road and Fallon Road on
July 20, 2004, it also adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Project ("the MND"). The Project
Description for the MND included, among other things, the acquisition of rights of way from the various
property owners for the road widening, which included the Bragg/Silva property. Thus, the environmental
impacts of the proposed acquisition were previously analyzed in the MND, and the proposed acquisition is
therefore within the scope ofthat previous environmental review.
In addition, a consultant is currently conducting a Phase I analysis of the soils on the property. If
hazardous materials are found to be present on the site during the escrow period, the Purchase and Sale
Agreement will not be executed.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the Purchase and Sale Agreement
with Claire Silva, Trustee of the Silva Family Trust, and Elvera Bragg, Trustee of the Bragg Family Trust
and authorizing the City Manager to. execute the Agreement.
