It provided a mechanism for developers to cooperatively fund street and related improvements necessary to mitigate traffic impacts of new development. The City has continued to use this mechanism for the same purpose and has previously updated the LA AOC to include street improvements on Moorpark Avenue /Walnut Canyon Road and Spring Road (north of New Los Angeles Avenue) affected by the impacts of new development. This has included traffic signals at High Street /Moorpark Avenue, Poindexter Avenue /First Street /Moorpark Avenue, Flinn Road /Second Street /Spring Road (planned), and various storm drain improvements on Moorpark Avenue and Spring Road. The Council is being asked to consider the addition of a traffic signal at Casey Road /Walnut Canyon Road to the list of LA AOC funded projects. DISCUSSION: The Moorpark Unified School District (MUSD) as part of the plans for Walnut Canyon School improved the intersection of Casey Road /Walnut Canyon Road (SR 23) including installation of a traffic signal. Caltrans participated in the funding of the project for about $91,000.00, and the City administered the project for MUSD. For a number of reasons, the costs related to the intersection including right -of -way needs exceeded the costs 000295 City Council Agenda Report Re: Addition of Casey Road /Walnut Canyon Road Traffic Signal Page 2 January 30, 2002 (CC Meeting of February 6, 2002) typically expected for such a project. The City's Public Works Director estimates that costs exceeded $300,000.00. Staff recommends the payment of $156,708.00 to MUSD for a portion of the subject intersection and traffic signal related costs. In consideration of this payment, MUSD is allowing continued use of District space at 30 Flory Avenue and an expansion of the space for a period of 36 months. This space is used by the Ventura County Sheriff's personnel assigned to Moorpark. The LA AOC report and fees were most recently updated by the City Council on June 6, 2001. This improvement can actually be incorporated as part of Item 16, Project 8040, Moorpark Avenue Widening to three (3) lanes from Casey Road south to Third Street identified in the adopted LA AOC Report. The addition of this item will not cause a need to increase the LA AOC fees. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: (Roll Call Vote) 1. Approve the addition of Casey Road /Walnut Canyon Road traffic signal to LA AOC Report as part of Project 8040. 2. Adopt Resolution No. 2002- appropriating $156,708 from LA AOC for Project 8040.
