City Council

8F. Amendment #1 to the RailPros agreement for the Leucadia At- Grade Rail Crossing project to add $374,925 for preliminary engineering and environmental development, and a formal application to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). Environmental Considerations: The action to perform preliminary analysis and submit an application is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a "project" under Section 15378(b)(5) of CEQA Guidelines. The action involves an organizational or administrative activity of government that will not result in the direct or indirect physical change in the environment. Contact Person: Principal Engineer Widelski Recommended Action: Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute agreement Amendment #1 in substantial form and any necessary amendments and time extensions, in consultation with the City Attorney, with RailPros for $374,925 for preliminary engineering and environmental analysis and formal CPUC application preparation for two at-grade rail corridor crossings in Leucadia, for a new total agreement cost not-to-exceed $644,825. 2023-09-20 Item 08F At-Grade Crossings-CPUC Application
