PUBLIC 163(*h� DO. i TO: The City Council FROM: The Freeway Committee March 24, 1967 In order to make an all out effort to implement the new plan to preserve the Newport Boulevard arterial connection between Costa Mesa and Newport Beach, and to effect a more advantageous interchange between the Newport Freeway and the Coastal Freeway by securing a Superior Avenue alignment for the Newport Freeway, it appears advisable to permit the firm of DeLeuw, Cather & Company, consulting engineers, to employ the services of a planning consultant. The Committee has been informed by the staff that there are surplus salary funds in the Planning Department in the amount of $2, 500, 00, and surplus consulting funds in the Public Works Department in the amount of $3, 500. 00 which may be used to defray these costs if sufficient monies are not available by public contributions. It is therefore recommended by the Freeway Committee that the City of Newport Beach allocate a sum not to exceed $10, 000. 00 in order that the firm of DeLeuw, Cather may employ the services of Robert E. Grunwald & Associates at a sum not to exceed the amount of $4, 150. 00, for the development and presentation of planning studies to augment the engineering studies. FREEWAY COMMITTEE M l iCUUiVL;IL: 3 -�)7- -671 - &S�13 MARCH 279 1967 TO: CITY COUNCIL FROM: CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: ENGINEERING AND PLANNING STUDY FOR THE RELOCATION OF THE NEWPORT FREEWAY TO A SUPERIOR AVENUE ALIGNMENT. RECOMMENDATIONS: DISCUSSION: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND CITY CLERK TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH THE FIRM OF DELEUWy LATHER AND COMPANY FOR THE SUBJECT STUDY IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $10,000. ON FEBRUARY 14, 1967, THE CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZED THE FREE- WAY COMMITTEE TO NEGOTIATE WITH DELEUWy LATHER AND COMPANY FOR THE NEC- ESSARY PLANNSNG AND ENGINEERING STUDIES OF THE PROPOSED REALIGNMENT OF THE NEWPORT FREEWAY ALONG SUPERIOR AVENUE FOR PRESENTATION TO THE HIGH° WAY COMMISSION. IT IS FELT THAT THE CITYtS POSITION COULD BE BEST PRE- SENTED TO THE STATE HIGHWAY COMMISSION BY A COMBINED ENGINEERING AND PLANNING STUDY COMPLETE WITH A SIMPLE MODEL SHOWING THE PROPOSED FREE- WAY TO FREEWAY INTERSECTION ON SUPERIOR AVENUE WEST OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH CORPORATION YARD. THE ESTIMATED COST OF THE DIFFERENT ELEMENTS OF THIS REPORT ARE AS FOLLOWS: 1. ENGINEERING STUDY $ 4,350 2. PLANNING STUDY 4,150 3. MODEL 1,500 MAXIMUM ESTIMATED COST $70,000 IT IS PROPOSED THAT THE REPORT WOULD BE COMPLETED IN TIME FOR THE MA.Y, 1967 MEETING OF THE STATE HIGHWAY COMMISSION. THE ENGIN- EERIN:: AND PLANNING WOULD ESSENTIALLY BE A PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS OF (1) THE FEASIBILITY AND EFFECTS OF UTILIZING SUPERIOR AVENUE FOR THE NEWPORT FREEWAY; AND (2) THE RETENTION OF NEWPORT BOULEVARD AS A SEPARATE AND DISTINCT INTER -CITY TRAFFIC ARTERIAL. SINCE IT APPEARS THAT THE PROPOSED INTERCHANGE AT SUPERIOR AVENUE WOULD RESULT IN A GREATLY SIMPLIFIED AND LESS COSTLY INTERCHANGE, IT 15 FELT THAT A SIMPLE MODEL WOULD BE AN IN- VALUABLE TOOL IN DEMONSTRATING ITS ADVANTAGES TO THE COMMISSION. f r • • TO: CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: ER•®INEERING AND PLANNING STUDY FOR THE RELOCATION OF THE NEWPORT FREEWAY TO A SUPERIOR AVENUE ALIGNMENT.
