DESCRIPTION: The Saint Patrick Way - Regional Street to Golden Gate Drive project will construct a two-lane roadway south of and parallel to Dublin Boulevard between Regional Street and Golden Gate Drive. The alignment for this connector road for three long commercial cul-de- sacs was established by Ordinance in December 2003. The portion of Saint Patrick Way between Amador Plaza Road and Golden Gate Drive was previously constructed by the Alameda County Transportation Authority (ACTA) as part of the I-580/I-680 Interchange Improvements. With the commencement of construction related to the West Dublin BART Station and Windstar residential development on Golden Gate Drive, the westerly third of the Saint Patrick Way connector is scheduled for Fiscal Year 2007-2008. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COPY TO: Larry Castellanos, ARWS Page 1 of2 ITEM NO. 'f. S- G:ICIPISt. Patrick WaylConsultantslagst ARWS row appraisal agmt.doc The process to acquire the needed right of way for this project was begun in December 2006 with the hiring of a consulting firm to perform engineering services, which included providing legal descriptions for four parcels. As part of this process, it has become necessary to obtain an appraisal report to determine the Fair Market Value of one of these parcels to facilitate a fee simple acquisition. The parcel to be appraised is shown as Area 3 on the Location Map (Attachment 2). It is presently owned by Kimco Realty, the owner of the Orchard Hardware Shopping Center. Area 4B is under escrow as part of the Development Agreement for the AMB development project. AMB will be acquiring Areas 1 and 2 at a later date from Kimco Realty when the AMB project goes forward. A Request for Proposal was generated to Associated Right of Way Services, Inc. (AR\WS), who has demonstrated the ability to carry out similar tasks on the City's Dublin Boulevard Widening project (Village Parkway to Sierra Court). AR\WS has also worked with the City in the drafting of the AMB Devolopment Agreement, so is therefore familiar with the subject property on which the appraisal report will be performed. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the Consulting Services Agreement with Associated Right of Way Services, Inc., and authorizing the Mayor to execute the Agreement.
