1 OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER September 23, 2016 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: SUBJECT: Alan Tandy, City Manager General Information AT Notable Items The Centennial Corridor project required 225 full property acquisitions. On September 28 th, City Council will consider seven Resolutions of Necessity (RONs) to initiate Eminent Domain or condemnation. This process is the first of what can be several stages. We do not anticipate additional RONs for full property acquisitions. It is a remarkable accomplishment that so many properties have been acquired as free market transactions and so few RONs are necessary. Traditionally, past projects have run around 10% or more and this is only 3%. Furthermore, at least two of the remaining properties have complications such as third party liens and/or are in estates and they cannot sell absent this process. Also, approximately 64 partial acquisitions are just beginning, which can be more challenging, but hopefully our success will extend over to those acquisitions as well. As always, negotiations will continue with the seven parties involved with the RONs and every effort will be made to settle them prior to the completion of the legal process. Cal Water recently informed City staff that they would file an Advice Letter with the California Public Utilities Commission to recover $2.1 million in revenue from their Bakersfield customers to cover the 2015 Water Revenue Adjustment Mechanism balance. The revenue will be collected through a surcharge of $ per ccf when approved. Also, Cal Water further explained that an existing surcharge of $ (related to an adjustment for interim rates) will be eliminated at nearly the same time, so the net impact to customers should be minimal. Cal Water is providing this information in a diligent manner based on the requirements of the City s franchise agreement. If you have any questions or require any further explanation, City staff would be happy to facilitate that with Cal Water representatives. On September 7, 2016, the Bakersfield Californian published a Community Voice article entitled, Surprising shortsightedness in noncritical capital projects, which implied that, the Bakersfield City Council have been surprisingly shortsighted in steamrolling ahead with new noncritical capital projects. The article also claimed that, Our City and County leaders have a long history of not living within our means critical need general fund dollars were flying in noncritical directions.

2 Page 2 General Information September 23, 2016 On the contrary, the City has longstanding practices of fiscal prudence and conservative budgeting practices for decades. City budgeting practices have received national award status with the Government Finance Officers Association for the past 16 years, a nationally recognized peer review group who establishes best practices for governmental agencies across the nation. The City has received a similar award regarding its financial statement reporting for the past 35 years. The City has had a long standing policy to budget ongoing revenues for ongoing costs and budget one-time revenues for one-time capital expenditures. The City maintains adequate reserve funds for contingencies in operations such as the General Fund, Fleet Maintenance, Self Insurance as well as operational and capital reserves in enterprise activities such as water service and sewer processing. The article further implied that the City has constructed new road and highway projects at the expense of routine road maintenance efforts. In fact, the City routinely spends millions of general tax dollars each year on maintaining the road system. Over the past five years, the City s average expenditure of general tax dollars is roughly $16.8 million per year. Actual general tax dollars expensed on road system maintenance over the past two years have exceeded $21.9 million and $20.5 million, respectively. These investments in maintaining the road system are above and beyond any funds spent toward construction of new freeways. Furthermore, the vast majority of funds spent on the various freeway projects have been federal earmark funds specifically designated for such work. Had the City not taken a leadership role in the projects, the funds would have likely been awarded to another jurisdiction outside of Kern County. Currently, the City s tree contractor is in process of removing over 400 trees that have been affected by the drought and corresponding diseases. In addition, the dying trees are a safety issue. Tree removal is occurring on the streets, as follows: Calloway Drive, Hageman Road, Clay Patrick Farr Way, Patton Way, Fruitvale Avenue, Meacham Road, Gosford Road, White Lane, Old River Road, Pin Oak Park Boulevard, El Portal Drive, Buena Vista Road, Deer Peak Drive, Grand Lakes Avenue, Windsor Park Drive, Ming Avenue, River Run Boulevard, Brimhall Road, and Coffee Road. Also, tree removal will occur at The Park at River Walk, Kern Parkway, Truxtun Lake, Qualiwood Park, and River Oaks Park. Traffic and other Road Advisories Construction Nearly Complete on the Rosedale Highway Widening Project Ceremonial Ribbon Cutting Scheduled Construction crews are completing work on the Rosedale Highway Widening Project and a ribbon cutting ceremony has been scheduled for September 29, 2016, at 10:30 a.m. The media and the public are invited to attend the event, which will be held on the northeast quadrant of the Rosedale Highway/Mohawk Street intersection at the San Joaquin Facilities Management, Inc., Rosedale Highway Office, 5400 Rosedale Highway.

3 Page 3 General Information September 23, 2016 Work began on the $16 million construction project in spring The project widened the roadway to provide six traffic lanes (three in each direction) and made improvements to intersections between Calloway Drive and Gibson Street. On-street parking is no longer allowed along this section of Rosedale Highway. Construction crews are currently working to complete roadway striping, installing signal loops, and finishing other final details. Crews are expected to remain in the area for a few more weeks until various punch list items are completed. This project increases road capacity along one of Bakersfield s busiest commuter routes, thereby improving circulation and travel times. Please see the attachment for additional information. Intermittent Traffic Control Continues at State Routes 178 at Alfred Harrell Highway Intermittent traffic control will continue next week on State Route 178 at the Alfred Harrell Highway/Comanche Drive intersection, Monday, September 26 th, through Friday, September 30 th, while the contractor prepares for the reconstruction of this intersection. Flagging personnel will need to stop traffic intermittently between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Delays are not expected to last longer than 10 minutes, but motorists are advised to take alternate routes or allow extra time to reach their destination. State Route 58 and State Route 99- Multiple Closures by Caltrans The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will conduct daytime closures this Sunday on State Route 58 and State Route 99. The following closures will occur on Sunday, September 25 th, between 6:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., weather permitting: o o o The #2 (right) lane on westbound State Route 58 will be closed between the northbound State Route 99 connector and Real Road. The westbound State Route 58 to southbound State Route 99 connector will be closed. A posted detour will be available. The westbound California Avenue on-ramp to southbound State Route 99 will be closed. This closure will include the #4 (right) lane on southbound State Route 99 between California Avenue and Stockdale Highway. These closures may continue for longer periods of time if necessary, due to delays caused by uncontrollable events that may occur during maintenance activities. This work is scheduled to take place, weather permitting. Motorists may experience delays and are encouraged to take alternate routes whenever possible.

6 B A K E R S F I E L D CITY OF BAKERSFIELD PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager Nick Fidler, Public Works Director DATE: September 23, 2016 SUBJECT: Brighton Parks Soundwall Study Referral No. 728 This memo first provides a brief chronological summary of the Brighton Parks soundwall study and concludes with an update of the study. Background TRIP projects, like other projects throughout the state, follow federal and state standards for identifying future traffic noise impacts and, if specific thresholds are met, identifying appropriate noise mitigation measures. If specific noise impact thresholds are not met, noise mitigation costs are ineligible for federal and state reimbursement. Pursuant to federal and state guidelines, if the future predicted peak hour noise level of a residential property s outdoor use area is 66 dba or higher, or if the future noise levels as compared to pre-project noise levels increases by 12 db or more, the area is then considered impacted. Once an area is identified as impacted, a soundwall may be considered for federal and state funding if the soundwall can reduce the noise levels by at least 5 db, in addition to meeting certain cost requirements. The results of several traffic noise studies indicate that the Brighton Parks Community does not meet the noise impact thresholds stipulated by federal and state guidelines. Therefore, any noise mitigation measures, including construction of a soundwall, are ineligible for federal and state reimbursement. This same criteria has been used to determine sound mitigation measures for all TRIP projects Councilmember Rivera requested that City staff provide an update on the Brighton Parks soundwall study. URS Consultants prepared the environmental impact report (EIR), which included a noise study dated 2005, for the Westside Parkway Project (WSP) in accordance with federal and state guidelines. The area encompassed in this noise study included the residentially zoned area that would become Brighton Parks. The EIR showed 59 dba for estimated existing ambient peak-noise-hour and 65 dba for estimated future peak hour noise level. This represents an increase of 6 db from pre-wsp construction noise levels as

7 Brighton Parks Study Page 2 compared to post-wsp construction levels. The Brighton Parks Community did not meet the minimum threshold required for noise mitigation measures. Therefore, no noise mitigation measure, such as construction of a soundwall, was recommended for this area. Staff attributes this finding due to the distance between the Brighton Parks Community and the traffic on the WSP, which is approximately 350 feet away at its closest point and more than 1,000 feet away at its furthest point Subsequent to the EIR, Parsons prepared a second Noise Study Report (NSR) for the WSP during the final design to incorporate actual final alignments and profiles (grades). The initial EIR, which was prepared by URS, used conceptual design data. The 2010 NSR again analyzed the noise impacts to not only the Brighton Parks neighborhood, but to all residential neighborhoods along the WSP. The NSR was prepared to ensure the findings from the original URS study were applicable when incorporating actual final alignments and profiles (grades), as well as including potential increased traffic volumes and noise due to the future construction project to connect the Centennial Corridor to State Route 58 which was not anticipated in the original URS noise study. The 2010 NSR, based upon updated design and traffic data, concluded that some of the proposed sound walls for residences along the WSP, which met state and federal requirements for noise mitigation measures, should be increased in height. Based upon actual measurements specific to the Brighton Parks community, the noise study showed a 48 dba existing noise level for non-peak hours and extrapolated to 57 dba for existing peak hour. This extrapolation was based upon actual long-term noise sampling from a nearby location which was acoustically representative of Brighton Parks. Additionally, the future peak hour traffic noise levels for the Brighton Parks area were predicted to be between 60 and 62 dba, which is below the noise abatement criteria of 66 dba and is a noise increase of only 3 to 5 db. Therefore, the 2010 NSR concluded that the noise impacts to the Brighton Parks area still did not reach federal or state thresholds where sound mitigation was required. Consequently, a soundwall along the Brighton Parks Community has not been constructed as it will not be eligible for federal or state funding to 2016 After opening of the WSP in August 2013, residents of the Brighton Parks development contacted the City expressing concerns with the traffic noise, as well as with visual concerns from that traffic. Residents requested that the City build a soundwall for their neighborhood. Staff from the City, Caltrans, and City consultants met several times with a committee that said they represented the Brighton Parks residents. As a result of these meetings, the fence that was installed along the Allen Road on-ramp to eastbound WSP was increased in height. In addition, slats were installed in the fence to enhance visual separation of the WSP to the Brighton Parks Community. An Addendum to the 2010 NSR was prepared by Parsons in March of 2014 after the completion of the construction of WSP up to Allen Road to determine whether traffic noise impacts currently occur or are predicted to occur within the Brighton Parks development. The traffic noise model was calibrated using results of four noise

8 Brighton Parks Study Page 3 measurements and simultaneous traffic counts. The future build traffic noise levels were then predicted using the calibrated traffic noise model. The Addendum to the NSR concluded that the current peak hour noise levels with WSP constructed up to Allen Road was measured up to 61 dba at outdoor use areas which is below the threshold of 66 dba to be considered impacted. In addition, the Addendum showed that the peak traffic noise levels for the future build scenario would not exceed 64 dba which is again below 66 dba; therefore, traffic noise impacts are not predicted to occur. Finally, based on the pre-construction ambient noise level of 57 dba measured for the 2010 NSR, the predicted increase in traffic noise levels is 7 db which is below the 12 db increase to be considered impacted. Therefore, noise abatement is not required. The Brighton Parks committee, unsatisfied with the fence improvements, continued to advocate for construction of a soundwall. Both the City and the Brighton Parks committee agreed to hire an outside consultant to evaluate as an independent thirdparty if the pre-construction noise levels for Brighton Parks were determined properly. Both the City and the Brighton Parks committee agreed to work together to mutually select an independent firm and develop a scope of work for this consultant. Illingworth & Rodkin, Inc. (I&R) was hired to perform the third-party review in December As agreed upon, the initial meeting with I&R was attended by City staff, Caltrans staff, City consultants, and representatives from the Brighton Parks development. Representatives of the Brighton Parks Community informed I&R that their major concern of the prior two noise study reports was the original sound levels shown for their area prior to construction of the WSP. The committee said they believed that the baseline noise level for their area shown in previous studies was too high, and claimed that abnormal noises from croaking frogs and air conditioning units caused measured background noise levels in 2009 to be elevated. However, measured long-term noise data does not indicate that the data was tainted due to frog noise. I&R s report concluded that the noise measurements and determination of the preconstruction noise levels presented in the original studies were accurate and in accordance with state and federal accepted guidelines for traffic noise analysis. After completion of the mutually agreed upon third-party independent report, and after holding several additional meetings between the Brighton Parks committee and City staff, consultants and Councilmembers to discuss the third-party report, the Brighton Parks committee indicated that they would not accept the results of the thirdparty report and instead elected to hire a different firm of their choosing to perform yet another review. The committee hired Behrens & Associates (Behrens); however, the scope of their work or contract is unknown to City staff. The Brighton Parks committee provided a copy of the Behrens report to City staff. Behrens took some new noise measurements in the Brighton Park area, and using the new noise measurements, Behrens questioned the original baseline measurements as determined by the URS and Parsons findings, and as verified by the I&R study. Although there is not an approved method to conclusively determine today what the noise level in the Brighton Parks Community would have been before construction of the WSP, Behrens estimated that the noise levels for this area before construction of the WSP were probably in the range of 33 to 38 dba. This is significantly lower than the results of

9 Brighton Parks Study Page 4 the URS study and the Parsons study, as reviewed and verified by the I&R study. Furthermore, noise levels of 33 to 38 dba are extremely low noise levels and would not be considered normal for urban communities. Per the Behrens report, a 33 to 38 dba noise level is typical for libraries and small theaters, both of which are designed to be quiet. City and Parsons reviewed the report prepared by Behrens and concluded that Behrens cleaned the measured data in an attempt to develop unrealistically low background noise levels. If the peak background noises are not removed, then the levels would be consistent with those presented in the original noise study report prepared for the project. The City has also requested Caltrans review the Behren s report and provide comments. Caltrans concurs with Parsons position on this study. Current As previously noted, there is no federal or state approved analytical method for redetermining the baseline noise levels that existed for an area prior to the construction of a project once that project has been constructed. Therefore, any mitigation performed by the City today for the Brighton Parks area would not be eligible for either State or Federal reimbursement. The cost of the soundwall is estimated at $2.3 million. City staff, Caltrans staff, and City consultants will meet with the Brighton Parks Committee in mid-october 2016 to discuss both Caltrans and the City consultant s findings of the Behren s report. Summary Traffic noise levels in the Brighton Parks Community do not meet federal and state thresholds for noise mitigation measures, including construction of a soundwall. Therefore, no federal or state funding can be used for the soundwall. Those standards have been consistently applied to every TRIP project. Other relevant information includes: Homes along the project that did meet the federal and state criteria in many cases got lower walls than what Brighton Parks is demanding. In many cases, homes along the WSP that did meet federal and state criteria for noise abatement got lower soundwalls than Brighton Parks is requesting. With the construction of a 14-foot soundwall along the roadway shoulder, only 37 of 425 homes in Brighton Parks would have an easily discernable noise reduction (Only these 37 homes would receive a noise reduction of 5 db, which is the amount of noise reduction easily discernable to the human ear). Staff is aware of many other neighborhoods along freeway projects that have requested soundwalls. Absent application of the federal and state criteria for determining appropriate noise mitigation measures, what factors would determine when said requests should be honored? How would those requests ineligible for federal or state reimbursement be funded? Despite all of the above, the City continues to meet with the neighborhood and is investigating alternative forms of dealing with their concerns.
