Several of the City's project are on a critical path to assure Federal / State funding for these projects. The difference between the DRAFT form and the FINAL form is the Caltrans District Number (04 for the area governed by the City) and Administering Agency (the City) code assigned by Caltrans, the assignment of an agreement number (also assigned by Caltrans) and the effective date of the agreel'nent. This will then shorten the time period. for allocation of funding and implementation of each project for construction. The projects currently affected by this Master Agreement are: Dublin Boulevard Widening at $2.5 million, Street Resurfacing at $ 0.4 million and Village Parkway Traffic Signals at $0.3 million for the 1999-2000 fiscal year. Caltrans will also require other Supplement Agreements and forms to be executed as related to the Master Agreement. To expedite current and future projects related to the Master Agreement, staff is requesting that the Director of Public Works be authorized to execute Supplemental Agreement and other related documents to the Master Agreement. Staff recommends approval of the Master Agreement with Caltrans. Staff further recommends that the Director of Public Works be authorized to execute the Mater Agreement and any Supplemental Agreements / forms as related to the Master Agreement.
