Adopt resolution approving the proposed agreement.
The developer of the Windemere Ranch project, located within
Contra Costa County, intends to use Dougherty Road within the City
of Dublin as the main truck access route to haul heavy aggregate
base and asphalt materials to the project site to construct new roads
for "Phase lB" of the project. Under this agreement, the developer
agrees to compensate the City for any pavement damage to
Dougherty Road within Dublin caused by the truck trips to the
"Phase lB" project site. Concurrent with the execution of this
agreement, the developer shall furnish the City with a Faithful
Performance Bond in the amount of $100,000 to guarantee
compensation for pavement damage to Dougherty Road. In
addition, the developer will be required to reimburse all City costs to
survey the street periodically to determine the extent of pavement
deterioration.
DESCRIPTION: The City entered into a Construction Truck Access Agreement with
Windemere BLC in June 2000, which granted this developer permission to access the Windemere Ranch
project within Contra Costa County via Dougherty Road in Dublin to haul heavy equipment and materials
to the "Phase One" project site. This agreement terminated on October 31, 2001. On November 6, 2001,
the City entered into a second track access agreement with Windemere BLC to allow this developer to
continue using Dougherty Road within Dublin to haul heavy equipment and materials to the "Phase One"
project site. The second agreement terminated on March 31, 2002, and was extended to terminate on
April 30, 2002.

Windemere BLC recently informed City Staff that truck deliveries of heavy aggregate base and asphalt
materials to the project site have been taking place since August 2002 in preparation for constructing new
roads on "Phase lB" of the project. "Phase lB" is the second of two improvement phases within the main
"Phase One" development project. The new roads for "Phase lA" have already been constructed and the
developer is ready at this time to construct the new roads for "Phase lB". As a result, the developer
intends to continue making track deliveries to the "Phase lB" project site through the end of year 2002 or
the beginning of year 2003, as weather permits, to complete the roadway improvements. The developer
estimates that truck deliveries along Dougherty Road within Dublin could reach a peak volume of 400
tracks per day for several days to allow for base rock installation on "Phase lB".
This proposed agreement will be subject to the same terms and obligations as the first two truck access
agreements with Windemere BLC and will terminate on June 30, 2003. The proposed agreement specifies
that the developer shall compensate the City for any pavement damage to Dougherty Road caused by the
"Phase lB" track trips to the project site. This compensation is guaranteed by furnishing a Faithful
Performance Bond in the amount of $100,000 in favor of the City. Under the proposed agreement, the
developer shall conduct videotaped pavement surveys of Dougherty Road immediately after this
agreement is executed and before the agreement terminates to determine the extent of pavement
deterioration due to "Phase lB" truck deliveries.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the proposed Construction Truck
Access Agreement.
