Raggio City Clerk WER:pm Attachment 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach I/ . :f 0 • • E TO: City Council FROM: Public Works Department' (f July 8, 1991 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F -2(b) SUBJECT: ACQUISITION OF VEHICULAR ACCESS RIGHTS TO IRVINE AVENUE AT 2201 SANTIAGO DRIVE 1. Adopt a Resolution of Intent to condemn access rights to Irvine Avenue adjacent to 2201 Santiago Drive. 2. Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to approve an agreement for the acquisition of access rights. 3. Authorize City Manager to execute the Certificate of Acceptance for the Relinquishment of Vehicular Access Rights Grant Deed. DISCUSSION: Kent and Irene Dunlap have reconsidered and accepted the City's offer for the purchase of their vehicular access rights to all but the southwesterly six (6) feet of the Irvine Avenue frontage of their property at 2201 Santiago Drive. This acquisition is needed to facilitate the Irvine Avenue at Santiago intersection improvements contract that was awarded June 24, 1991. The City's contract will remove the present "bottleneck" on Irvine Avenue at Santiago Drive, by widening Irvine Avenue 8 feet. The widening also affects garage access to 2201 Santiago Drive, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Kent Dunlap. In 1973 then parcel was subdivided, and a right -of -way dedication of 8 feet wasjrequired on Irvine Avenue and a 10 foot dedication on Santiago Drive. The widening utilizes the 8 foot dedication on Irvine Avenue. The property line is now 12 feet from the garage door, and the new back of sidewalk elevation is one foot below the garage floor. A 12 foot drive is not long enough to allow a vehicle to park without blocking the sidewalk. Vehicles would also have to. back on to Irvine Avenue when exiting the garage. Staff retained an architect to look at moving the garage or constructing a new garage that would take access from Santiago Drive. An agreement has been reached with the property owners to acquire the vehicular access rights to all but the southwesterly 6 feet of the Irvine Avenue frontage. Under the agreement, the Dunlaps are provided a lump sum payment of $41,000.00 to compensate them for loss of access rights and for construction of a new garage that takes access from Santiago Drive. The $41,000.00 will come from the currently budgeted gas tax account for acquiring street right -of -way No. 18- 3341 -003. The Dunlaps, by separate agreement • • 0 0 Subject: Acquisition of Vehicular Access Rights to Irvine Avenue at 2201 Santiago Drive July 8, 1991 Page 2 with the adjoining property owner, have obtained the right to use the adjoining driveway to gain access to their Irvine Avenue side yard for secondary visitor parking. The Dunlaps are allowing the neighbor's drive to be widened by 3 feet onto their property to improve access to both sites. The City will construct a flared commercial -type drive approach to improve site access. The agreement with the Dunlaps also provides for a Resolution of Intent to Condemn for the acquisition of access rights. They have requested the resolution for tax reasons, and agree with the proposed City settlement and agreement. The attached Exhibit "A" shows the new location of the Santiago driveway and the modified Irvine Avenue drive. Copies of the Agreement, Relinquishment of Vehicular Access Rights, Grant Deed, and Resolution of Condemnation are available for review in the Public Works Department. Contract No. Santiago Drive will be through a change order. Benjamin B.

City's contractor will rough grade the drive to a point 15 feet behind property line. 3. Have CITY'S contractor grade and reconstruct a portion of the entry sidewalk from Santiago Drive with steps beginning at the new retaining wall. 4.
