AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Dave Klotzle, Interim City Engineer /Public Works Director
DATE: September 23, 2010 (CC Meeting of 10/06/10)
SUBJECT: Consider Authorization to Proceed with Preparation of a Feasibility
Study of a Second Access to Arroyo Vista Community Park (Project
8089) and a Resolution Amending the Fiscal Year 2010/11 Budget to
Appropriate Funds for the Project
DISCUSSION
The interest in having a second vehicular access to Arroyo Vista Community Park has
been discussed for some time. This need is particularly felt during park events which
attract a large volume of park goers and their vehicles. A second access would not only
improve circulation and ease traffic congestion, but it would also improve the ability of
emergency and public safety vehicles to access the park during "high use" events.
Except for potential access from an extension of Mesa Verde Drive east of the park,
across Southern California Edison (SCE) property and down the slope to the park, a
second access would require the construction of a new bridge across the Arroyo Simi.
The current pedestrian /equestrian /emergency access bridge was not designed to
accommodate regular park use vehicular traffic. In addition, the access easement
granted by Southern California Edison south of the existing bridge, across their
property, does not allow for such traffic.
The first step in considering the possible construction of a new bridge to the park is the
preparation of a feasibility study by a qualified traffic engineering consultant. A study is
needed to evaluate options, assess impacts, identify constraints (right -of -way and
permit requirements) and provide alternative conceptual plans and cost estimates.

The following are suggested options for second access locations to be studied:
1) An extension of Leta Yancy Road through the southeast corner of the
proposed Pacific Communities development.
2) An extension of the central north -south road in the proposed Pacific
Communities development in approximate alignment with Shasta Avenue.
3) An extension of Mesa Verde Drive east of the park, across SCE property
and down the slope to the park.
It is not recommended to study second access locations from the vicinity of Moorpark
Avenue or Beltramo Road due to the extensive right -of -way, grading and street
improvement requirements that would be involved with these locations.
FISCAL IMPACT
It is estimated that the cost of the feasibility study will be under $35,000.00. At this time
staff is not requesting any funds for design, right -of -way acquisition or construction of the
project. Such considerations would be entertained subsequent to review of the
completed study. There are sufficient unappropriated funds in the Los Angeles Avenue
AOC Fund (Fund 2501) to fund the study discussed herein.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS (ROLL CALL VOTE)
1. Direct staff on which second access locations are to be included in the feasibility
study.
2. Authorize the City Manager to sign a consultant agreement for a feasibility study of the
subject project at a cost not to exceed $35,000.00.
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2010 - amending the FY 2010/11 Budget to fund the
feasibility study for Project 8089.
