RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends Council adopt a bill for an ordinance accepting two easements (one Temporary Construction Easement and one Permanent Easement) for property occupied by Bank of the West, located at the SW corner of Quincy and Broadway. BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED The existing traffic signal at the Broadway/Quincy intersection is obso lete (about 35 years old) with substandard poles and mast arm structures, and small 8 inch signal indications. This is one of two traffic signals on the Broadway corridor that has not yet been upgraded; the other is located at the Mansfield intersection. Traffic Engineering staff has funds budgeted in the Public Improvement Fund (P IF) to upgrade the Quincy/Broadway signal later this year. The lack of available public right-of-way, along with existing utility conflicts, creates the necessity to acquire easements from the bank property at the southwest corner of the intersection. Two easements are required : one permanent easement located adjacent to the sidewalk (30 square feet) to set the new pole and traffic signal box, and one temporary construction easement (35 square feet) located behind the permanent easement to provide room for installation during construction. Typ icall y, the City would order an appraisal for property we need to acquire and present an offer for the appraised va lue . The owner would have the option to order another appraisal (at the City's cost) for another opinion of va lue. Negotiations would follow and, unless an agreement is reached, the City would ha ve no recourse but to proceed with the process of eminent domain and condemnation for the acquisition . Public Works staff has been in contact with the Bank of the West corporate office in California and they have agreed to proceed w ith the vo luntary dedication of the easements without the benefit of appraisals in exchange for a $3,000 payment. The cost of two appraisals together with the fair market va lu e of the easements would exceed $3,000. Staff believes the settlement is fair and in the best interest of the City. FINANCIAL IMPACT Funds for the purchase of the easements are availab le in the Transportation System Upgrade account in the PIF .
