FINANCIAL STATEMENT: The current CIP project to upgrade the traffic signal at Village
Parkway/Amador Valley Boulevard has a budget of $158,020. Staff
proposes that Council appropriate $55,000 from Gas Tax reserves to
fund additional intersection improvements as part of this project.
DESCRIPTION: The City Council, as part of the 2002-2003 Capital Improvement
Program (CIP) Budget, approved a project to upgrade the traffic signal at Village Parkway/Amador Valley
Boulevard to enhance the operation and safety at this intersection. This project will replace all signal
poles with new standard poles and replace the underground wiring system for the traffic signal. The
estimated cost to complete this project is $158,000, which is being funded, in part, by a Federal grant in
the amount of $127,000 through the Hazard Elimination Safety (HES) program. The City has allocated
approximately $31,000 in General Fund monies to cover the full cost of this project. The project design
has been completed and construction is scheduled for Fall 2003.
City Staff proposes to expand the scope of work of this CIP project to add the elimination of the free right
turn island at the southeast comer of the intersection. The parcel adjacent to this comer (previously BP
gas station) is currently vacant and available for future development, and this improvement would help
create an economic incentive, making the property more developable by extending the comer area toward
the street to allow for such amenities as landscaping, seating areas, etc. Based on a recent analysis
conducted by City Staff at this intersection, the elimination of the free right turn at the southeast comer
would allow the intersection to continue operating at an acceptable level of service during the peak traffic
periods under existing and future traffic conditions.

The improvement can be constructed at a significantly lower cost if implemented as part of the CI~
project, rather than being built as a stand-along project. Staff proposes that Gas Tax reserves in the
amotmt of $55,000 be appropriated to fund the additional improvements. The design plans for the
current CIP project can be revised as necessary to incorporate these improvements without affecting
the overall completion schedule of the project.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution authorizing implementation of additional
improvements for Contract 02-10, Traffic Signal Upgrade - Village Parkway/Amador Valley Boulevard,
and approve the budget change to fund the additional improvements.
