William R. Gray and Co. has been working with Eden Development, Caltrans, TJKM, and City Staff in the design process for future I-580 interchanges in the western Dublin area. As with the Schaefer Ranch interchange, the first step in the process is a Project Study Report (PSR) which will be prepared by Caltrans for the project's inclusion in the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). William Ro Gray's charges, as well as the design and constructibn costs for the interchange, are being paid by the developer. In order for Caltrans to complete the PSR, Caltrans needs an acknowledgement from the City in which the City recognizes that the proposed interchange is a locally funded project. The resolution is worded so that no General Fund monies are committed. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution. a:(corres)~jan~agsteden ITEM NO.~ COPIES TO: Lincoln Chu, Caltrans Terry Bowen, W. R.
