Executive Summary:
The three-phased Industrial Drive Improvement Project has a general scope to upgrade sewer and water systems, construct new roadway pavement and the associated edge improvements. Phase III will complete the connection of Industrial Drive from Huntington Drive to Eagle Mountain Drive with construction targeted for calendar 2020.
Currently, Industrial Drive from Huntington Drive to Eagle Mountain Drive is partially on an easement granted to the county for ingress/egress (approximately 18,900 square feet). The balance of the unimproved road is on private property owned by the Block-Lite Company. The City needs to acquire approximately 84,114 square feet or 1.931 acres for right-of-way. The City will also acquire a temporary construction easement of 13,922 square feet at no cost to the City.

Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This:
No
Options and Alternatives:
- Approve the property acquisition for the connectivity of Industrial Drive as City right-of-way.
- Don't approve the property acquisition and a portion of Industrial Drive will remain private property and the road and drainage issues will not be improved or corrected.
Background and History:
Currently, a portion of Industrial Road crosses private property at 3900 E. Industrial Drive. The road is an unimproved, chip seal road that does not meet the City’s Engineering Standards for its classification as a minor arterial, truck route. Additionally, there are issues with flooding in this area. This property acquisition will provide connectivity for the City right-of-way along Industrial Drive and will allow City staff to solicit construction bids and move forward with construction of this missing segment of Industrial Drive. The improvements will take this segment of Industrial Drive off private property and put the roadway, underground utilities, hydrants, streetlights and edge improvements within a City-owned right-of-way. Additionally, the Fanning wash drainage improvement component will replace the existing high maintenance, low water crossing and will conduct the 100-year storm frequency beneath the new roadway and into an existing drainage draw. Upon completion of construction, a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) will be submitted to FEMA requesting an update to the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM).
Key Considerations:
1. Provide connectivity by acquiring a private road on Industrial Drive and including it into the City's right-of-way.
2. Improve the road to the City's Engineering Standards.
3. Correct drainage issues.
