Item #11 CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT FOR THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 3, 2004 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS FROM: AMER JAKHER, P.E., CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: ACCEPT AND APPROVE GRANT DEEDS FOR STREET DEDICATION PURPOSES FROM LOT 7 OF MERRYFIELDS SUBDIVISION ON LARK STREET, TRACT 16222 DATE: January 27, 2004 BACKGROUND: The development of the Tract No. 16322 included the extension of Lark Street. The proposed extension necessitated installation of new curb return on the northwest corner of the intersection of Lomita Lane and Lark Street. The installation of a larger curb radius would provide improved turning movement. The property owner at the northwest corner of the intersection Lark Street and Lomita Lane, Salathiel A. Ramirez and Celia Ramirez have agreed to dedicate the necessary right- of-way, at no cost to the City of Colton. A copy of the deed, signed by Salathiel A. Ramirez and Celia Ramirez is attached as Exhibit "A". ANALYSIS/ DISCUSSION: The existing right-of-way at that intersection is not sufficient to allow proper turning movement. The owners of the property have agreed to dedicate additional lands for public use in order to accommodate the installation of the required street improvements. The construction of the street is being done as part of the development of Tract 16322 and is being paid for by the developer. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: This action does not have an environmental impact.
