Director of Public Works/City Engineer~~~ Michael J. Garcia, City Attorney Robert P. Elliot, Director of Finance ____________________ RECOMMENDATION Staff respectfully recommends that City Council approve a Resolution of Appropriation to appropriate $600,000 from Local Grants, Measure R Regional Return Fund, Account No. 34301-255 to the Construction, Measure R Regional Return Fund, Public Works Projects, Verdugo Boulevard Traffic Signal Modifications at Valihi Way and SR-2 Freeway Off-Ramp, Account No. 52100-255-501-G51986. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS The rehabilitation of Verdugo Boulevard between Verdugo Road and the easterly City limit is part of Public Works Engineering’s ongoing effort to improve the condition of the City’s streets. Street intersections are potential points of conflict in any roadway system. Motorized and non- motorized users are crossing paths as they travel through or turn from one route to another. Therefore, a major part of road safety challenges involve addressing intersections. Intersections can also become congested when traffic volumes are high, creating inefficiencies that result in user delay and frustration. The benefits of modified and upgraded signalized intersections include: • Enhanced traffic flow along surface streets in the vicinity of the subject intersections; • Enhanced operational, and pedestrian safety; and • Reduced traffic delays, improved mobilization and travel time, and consequently reduce fuel consumption and vehicle emissions. Project Locations: • Verdugo Boulevard and Valihi Way • Verdugo Boulevard and SR-2 Freeway Off-Ramp The above intersections scheduled for signal modifications will be modified and upgraded to improve traffic progression and enhance traffic safety. The project scope of work includes the following: • Modification of existing traffic signals; • Installation of new curb ramps to meet current Federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements; and • Installation of new striping and pavement markings. Measure R Measure R is a half-cent sales tax for Los Angeles County that finances new transportation projects and programs. In November 2008, Measure P was approved by two-thirds majority, committing a projected $40 billion to traffic relief and transportation upgrades throughout the County over its 30 years life span. The City’s share of Measure R funds for Highway Operational Improvements in the first ten years is approximately $34 million. The City is required to execute a Funding Agreement (FA) for each of our Measure R funded projects. The FA must be executed in the first year that funds are available and prior to starting 2 any work on the project. They include a general description of the project, the specific work elements to be completed, and the source of all funds. City staff was able to secure Measure R funds to fund the design, construction, and construction management of the traffic signal modifications on Verdugo Boulevard at Valihi Way and SR-2 Freeway Off-Ramp, and will use Gas Tax funds to fund the street improvement portion of Verdugo Boulevard. Project S hedule and Milestones The Verdugo Boulevard Traffic Signal Modifications at Valihi Way and SR-2 Freeway Off-Ramp are included in Los Angeles County Metro Board’s approved project list in the amount of $600,000. Staff is currently working on the design phase of the project, with project advertisement anticipated in mid-2019, and construction anticipated to begin four months after advertisement. FISCAL IMPACT Upon Council’s approval, $600,000 will be appropriated from Local Grants, Measure R Regional Return Fund, Account No. 34301-255 to the Construction, Measure R Regional Return Fund, Public Works Projects, Verdugo Boulevard Traffic Signal Modifications at Valihi Way and SR-2 Freeway Off-Ramp, Account No. 521 00-255-501 -G51 986. Additional Gas Tax funds will be requested for the street improvement portion of Verdugo Boulevard as part of the FY 2018-2019 budget request. ALTERNATIVES Alternative 1: Approve the attached Resolutions. Staff can proceed with the preliminary engineering phase of the project. Alternative 2: Do not approve the attached Resolutions.

  • 6.9 WATER QUALITY 6.9.1 EXISTING CONDITIONS 6.9.1.1 Regulatory
    Scholl Canyon Landfill Expansion EIR Section 6.0 6.9 WATER QUALITY The landfill design and operation are subject to substantial regulation to prevent degradation of water quality. In accordance with these regulations, the Scholl Canyon Landfill (SCLF) employs various measures to protect water quality including comprehensive monitoring and reporting programs. This section addresses potential water quality impacts of Variations 1 and 2 of the expansion of the SCLF and details the extensive water quality protection systems in place and planned for both variations. Potential water quality impacts on surface water and groundwater are assessed for both variations. 6.9.1 EXISTING CONDITIONS 6.9.1.1 Regulatory Setting Water quality protection at municipal solid waste landfill sites is governed by both federal and state regulations. At the federal level, the Water Pollution Control Act (also referred to as the Clean Water Act) requires surface water quality protection, and the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act require groundwater quality protection. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) promulgates regulations in Title 40 CFR. At the state level, water quality protection is specified in the Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act. Regulations implementing both surface water and groundwater quality protection are contained in Title 27 CCR. The California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) has designated oversight responsibility for the implementation of these regulations to nine Regional Water Quality Control Boards (RWQCBs). The SCLF is under the oversight of RWQCB, Los Angeles Region. Federal Regulations Relevant federal regulations to protect surface water and groundwater quality are discussed below.

  • Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Year Ended June 30, 2012
    COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2012 city of About the Cover Americana at Brand Expansion The Americana at Brand opened in May 2008 and along with the Glendale Galleria, has been instrumental in creating a regional shopping district in the heart of the City. With 75 retail shops and a variety of dining options, the Americana is one of the premiere “lifestyle” centers in Southern California. The Americana also includes 100 condominiums and 238 apartments, and a 2-acre landscaped park, featuring an animated fountain centrally located within the project. In October 2011, the City approved a major expansion of the Americana, permitting the way for the relocation of Nordstrom into a new 120,000 SF anchor store. The new Nordstrom will sit on the site of a former motel and warehouse building and will seamlessly integrate with the larger center using a mixture of building finishes and colors that are complimentary to the original Americana design. Completion of the expansion is scheduled for October 2013, and once completed, will reaffirm Glendale as one of the region’s leading shopping destinations. Galleria Renovation One of the City’s first redevelopment projects, the Glendale Galleria opened its doors for business in 1976. Today, the Glendale Galleria draws over 26 million visitors a year, competing as a top Los Angeles area destination with the likes of Disneyland. With 250 of the country’s top specialty stores and four major department stores, Glendale Galleria is one of the premier brand-name shopping destinations in the Los Angeles area. In November 2011, the City approved a comprehensive renovation plan for the Galleria that includes new interior finishes, such as new stone and tile floors, façade improvements, and a new branding identity package, including new signage and graphics.

    SECTION 4.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION Scholl Canyon Landfill Expansion EIR Section 4.0 4.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION 4.1 PROJECT LOCATION The project site is located in Los Angeles County, at 3001 Scholl Canyon Road, Glendale, California, 91206. Regional access to the landfill is from the Ventura Freeway (State Route (SR) 134) at the Figueroa Street exit. Public access is only from Scholl Canyon Road. The SCLF consists of a total of 535 acres, 440 acres of which are designated for landfill operations and 95 acres of which are designated for related operations (site access). The 440-acre operation area includes 314 acres of active area (Scholl Canyon) and 126 acres of inactive area (northern canyon). Figure 4-1 shows the layout of the landfill. 4.2 PROJECT PURPOSE AND PROJECT OBJECTIVES The purpose of the SCLF Expansion (proposed project) is to provide waste diversion programs and disposal capacity to help meet the solid waste management needs of the City of Glendale (City) and other landfill users. The proposed project would allow for the continued disposal of non-hazardous municipal solid waste at the currently permitted daily tonnage levels of 3,400 tons per day. The proposed project would also include the continued recovery of materials such as green waste, asphalt, soil, tires, and metal appliances through ongoing landfill waste diversion programs which several jurisdictions depend on to comply with state-mandated diversion goals. In addition, the proposed project would extend the recovery and beneficial use of landfill gas and thereby help meet California’s renewable energy goals. The specific objectives of the proposed project are to: Continue to provide a waste disposal option that has been proven to be environmentally sound and cost-effective at the currently permitted rate of 3,400 tons per day.

  • Glendale, California
    I YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA During a period when most communities nationwide have experienced a dramatic reduction in the number of housing “starts,” the City of Glendale has made notable progress in this area through the approval, oversight and financing of a variety of residential units, including those made available to families with lower-than-average incomes. (From upper right, clockwise) Glendale City Lights With the number of applications for affordable housing at an all-time high, the completion of this 68-unit rental project was a welcome addition to the City’s residential inventory. Located at 3673 San Fernando Road, the two- and three- bedroom units were fully occupied shortly after opening in late winter. Glendale’s Housing Authority contributed almost $10 million towards the construction. Kenwood Homes Through a joint effort with Habitat for Humanity, the City has completed six housing projects, with a seventh currently in development. The partnership recently celebrated the grand-opening of this 11-unit multi-family residence at 711 - 717 N. Kenwood. The homes have been purchased by low-income, first-time homebuyers who dedicated 500 hours each to the construction of the facility. The Americana at Brand One of the finest retail, restaurant and residential developments in Southern California, The Americana at Brand now offers upscale living in this successful project in south Glendale. Working with the City’s Community Redevelopment and Housing Department, Caruso Affiliated Properties has produced a unique lifestyle environment. The property offers both condominium and apartment units whose residents have access to valet parking, a concierge, a variety of upscale eating establishments and shops, as well as a theater…all on-site.
