Agenda Item F

8F. Amendment #1 to the RailPros agreement for the Leucadia At-\nGrade Rail Crossing project to add $374,925 for preliminary\nengineering and environmental development, and a formal\napplication to the California Public Utilities Commission\n(CPUC). Environmental Considerations: The action to\nperform preliminary analysis and submit an application is\nexempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)\nbecause it is not a "project" under Section 15378(b)(5) of\nCEQA Guidelines. The action involves an organizational or\nadministrative activity of government that will not result in the\ndirect or indirect physical change in the environment. Contact\nPerson: Principal Engineer Widelski\nRecommended Action: Authorize the City Manager or\ndesignee to execute agreement Amendment #1 in substantial\nform and any necessary amendments and time extensions, in\nconsultation with the City Attorney, with RailPros for $374,925\nfor preliminary engineering and environmental analysis and\nformal CPUC application preparation for two at-grade rail\ncorridor crossings in Leucadia, for a new total agreement cost\nnot-to-exceed $644,825.\n2023-09-20 Item 08F At-Grade Crossings-CPUC Application
