HomeMy WebLinkAbout8/2/2000 - STAFF REPORTS (14) DATE: August 2, 2000 TO: City Council FROM: City Engineer APPROVE CERRITOS ROAD IMPROVEMENT REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve the Cerritos Road Improvement Reimbursement Agreement between the City of Palm Springs and P.S. Center II, L.P. BACKGROUND: City staff has prepared a reimbursement agreement to secure payment for construction of Cerritos Road improvements between Vista Chino Road and Sandalwood Drive, between the Albertson's Shopping Center and the Vista Chino retention basin. This section of Cerritos Road will be constructed as part of City Project 99-20, scheduled for Council consideration and award by a separate agenda item. Construction of a portion of this section of Cerritos Road is the obligation of the adjacent developer, P.S. Center II, L.P., as a condition of approval of Planned Development District 227 for the existing community shopping center. The obligation to construct their portion of Cerritos Road was postponed until the developer began construction of the second phase of the shopping center, when exceeding 90,000 square feet of commercial space. The first phase of the shopping center is nearly complete, and it is expected that the developer will exceed 90,000 square feet within the shopping center with its next development application. Concurrently, staff has moved forward with City Project 99-20 to construct the City's portion of Cerritos Road, which is located on City property adjacent to the Vista Chino retention basin. In light of the timing of City Project 99-20 and the developer's impending obligation to construct its portion of Cerritos Road, staff extended to the developer the opportunity to partner with the City in the construction of Cerritos Road. In this way,the entire portion of Cerritos Road could be constructed at one time, providing cost and time savings to the City and the developer. In orderto facilitate the construction of the developer's obligated improvements,the City Attorney prepared the attached reimbursement agreement that will secure advance payment from the developer for the cost of those improvements, which include construction of curb,gutter,sidewalk and asphalt concrete paving along the developer's side of Cerritos Road. I Utilizing the bid prices from the apparent low bidder of City Project 99-20, Matich Corporation, staff has received advance payment in the amount of $13,099.90 from the developer for construction of its share of the Cerritos Road improvements.
