Executive Summary: The purpose of this resolution is to authorize the conveyance of a portion of the County s San Antonio Road right-of-way to the State of California for the State s Highway 101 Freeway Project. The California Department of Transportation ( Caltrans ) has notified the County of its intention to acquire this rightof-way under Section 83 of the Streets and Highways Code. Section 83 permits the State to obtain road right-of-way free of charge from counties and cities when required for State highway projects. A letter from Caltrans dated September 5, 2013, to Susan Klassen, Director of the Sonoma County Department of Transportation and Public Works, provided an official notice of intent to exercise Caltrans Section 83 real property transfer power for this right-of-way. A Quitclaim Deed executed by the County is requested to consummate this transfer. A 20,921 square foot portion of San Antonio Road right-of-way is required by the State. This section of road currently connects to the State highway just north of the Marin-Sonoma County line. This is a joint project between the Sonoma County Transportation Authority (SCTA) and Caltrans. The two agencies entered into a Cooperative Funding Agreement in 2010 for right-of-way support activities and right-of-way capital for this project. Caltrans is responsible for the design, right-of-way, and construction components of the project. The project will convert the current Highway 101 expressway to a controlled access freeway and realign Revision No

2 the route farther to the west in the vicinity of San Antonio Road. As a result of the freeway project, the current highway access opening for San Antonio Road will be closed. San Antonio Road will dead-end at the freeway and a private driveway will be installed to provide access to private property owners in that general location. n order to access the new freeway, motorists on San Antonio Road will need to cross the Marin County border via nearby South San Antonio Road and then follow a new frontage road south on the westerly side of the freeway to the existing overpass at the Redwood Landfill where a new interchange will allow northbound and southbound freeway access. Phase -B3 of the Marin/Sonoma Narrows Caltrans project will realign Highway 101 to the west, in the vicinity of the San Antonio Creek at the Sonoma - Marin County Line. The project will construct a new 6- lane Highway 101 bridge over San Antonio Creek and improve sight distance and resolve flooding issues at this location. This project will extend the Petaluma Boulevard South frontage road to the County Line, including Class bike lanes. A new Class bike lane will be constructed along San Antonio Creek to connect facilities on the west and east side of the highway. Phase B3 is expected to start construction in 2014 and be completed by The method Caltrans uses to obtain Section 83 land transfers has changed in recent years. At one time, after providing official written notice to the County, the State would simply record a Resolution within the County which provided the official transfer mechanism. n order to correct deficiencies in their procedures, Caltrans implemented several improvements to their process. The current iteration involves the execution by the County of a Right of Way Contract and a Quitclaim Deed formally transferring the property to the State. The current procedure solved their internal problems and added the benefit of making Section 83 land transfers a matter of public record. The attached Resolution will authorize the transfer of a section of the San Antonio Road right-of-way to the State of California for use in a State highway project and direct the Chair to execute a Quitclaim Deed and associated Right of Way Contract conveying said right-of-way. The contract has been reviewed by County Counsel. Prior Board Actions: 8/10/2010: County executed a Freeway Agreement with the State of California (Caltrans) for the Marin- Sonoma Narrows Freeway Project. n general, the agreement is a statement of the County's concurrence with the relocation, modification, and/or reconstruction by Caltrans of the County s roads in the project area. Strategic Plan Alignment Goal 1: Safe, Healthy, and Caring Community The project will enhance Highway 101 traffic flow and safety. Revision No
