Home My WebLink AboutModification S Frontage Rd Portola Ave and Hwy 111 - Precise Plan 98-17 CITY OF PALM DESERT INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Richard J. Folkers, Assistant City Manager for Development Services SUBJECT: REIMBURSEMENT FOR MODIFICATIONS OF THE SOUTH FRONTAGE ROAD WEST OF PORTOLA AVENUE AND HIGHWAY 111 (PRECISE PLAN 98-17) DATE: December 14, 2000 RECOMMENDATION: By minute motion: (1) Approve the reimbursement of$26,749.00, for superblock modifications of the south frontage road west of Portola Avenue south of Highway 111. (2) Appropriate $26,749.00 from unallocated Measure A funds. BACKGROUND: This item was before the Council at the meeting on November 9, 2000. At that meeting concerns were expressed regarding developer improvement responsibility, building location and right-of-way vacation. As previously reported, the subject project received approval from the City's Planning Commission in November 1998, and final approval of working drawings from the Architectural Review Commission in July 1999. Those approvals represent the project as it exists today with respect to architectural issues including building elevations, set back, landscaping, etc. Conditions of approval for the project required the reconfiguration of the frontage road and involved the implementation of the City's "superblock" concept as well as the Highway 111 corridor widening project. As has been implemented in previous projects along the highway/frontage road, existing street rights-of-way were vacated and new rights-of-way dedicated to facilitate the "superblock" concept. In the case of the subject project, the area of land associated with the street right-of-way vacation totaled 2,225 square feet and the land dedicated as "new" right-of-way totaled 2,564 square feet resulting in a net increase of 339 square feet of street right-of-way. 1 Page 2 December 14, 2000 SUBJECT: REIMBURSEMENT FOR MODIFICATIONS OF THE SOUTH FRONTAGE ROAD WEST OF PORTOLA AVENUE AND HIGHWAY 111 (PRECISE PLAN 98-17) As a result of this "give and take" associated with the proposed roadway configuration, the building footprint was sited such that the front of the building (Highway 111 frontage) was located at the approximate line of the southerly curb line of the frontage road, about ten feet closer to Highway 111 than existing buildings to the west. Again, this approach being similar to that utilized in previous projects involving the implementation of the "superblock" concept. While the project required the reconfiguration of the frontage road as a condition of approval, certain portions of the work required to accomplish the reconfiguration were beyond the project limits. These costs totaled $26,479, and this amount is being recommended as a reimbursement to the project developer as costs over and above his project requirements. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council approve a reimbursement in the amount of $26,749, to the project developer for off-site roadway improvements. and authorize the appropriation of $26,749. Funds for the reimbursement will be from the City's unallocated Measure A funds. IX° RIC ARD J. KERS, P.E.
