TO:City Council FROM:Fran Robustelli City Manager BY:Sheila Marquises Engineering & Transportation Director FINANCE REVIEW:Susan Hsieh Finance Director TITLE:Adopt a Resolution to Approve an Acquisition and Maintenance Agreement with the City of Oakland for the MacArthur/Superior Roundabout Project SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS The acquisition and maintenance agreement states that the City of Oakland will hold title to certain property that is purchased and maintained by the City of San Leandro. Staff recommends that the City Council approve an Acquisition and Maintenance Agreement with the City of Oakland. BACKGROUND The intersection of MacArthur Boulevard and Superior Avenue has an accident rate that is three to four times higher than the statewide average and a Level of Service of “F”, meaning that drivers must wait an extremely long time to cross the intersection; additionally, speeding is an issue along MacArthur Boulevard. The City plans to install a roundabout at said intersection to mitigate these issues. The project footprint was enlarged during the design phase to have separated bike lanes incorporated into the roundabout. As a result, right-of-way is required from the State at the north side of the intersection. The right-of-way will be de-certified by CalTrans, purchased by the City of San Leandro, and then transferred to the City of Oakland since the land is outside the City of San Leandro’s jurisdiction. The attached agreement is for the maintenance of the improvements constructed and the responsibilities of Oakland and San Leandro associated with the project. Analysis The agreement with the City of Oakland states that the City of San Leandro will design and construct the roundabout and acquire the necessary right-of-way from the State. The City of San Leandro will maintain most of the improvements constructed for the roundabout, except for those Page 1 City of San Leandro Printed on 7/13/2022
