Item # C.
|
| Town Council Regular Session |
|
|
|
| Information |
| SUBJECT: |
| Resolution No. (R)17-11, authorizing the waiver of A.R.S. 28-7209, thereby accepting ownership and maintenance of right-of-way of Tangerine Road, (formerly State Route 989) |
| RECOMMENDATION: |
| Town staff recommends approval. |
| EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: |
| This item is brought forward to Town Council for consideration to accept ownership of Tangerine Road, which will provide the Town with the necessary control to make decisions on access along the right-of-way. An Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) already exists for the maintenance of this section of Tangerine Road. The IGA includes maintaining the signals (except for the Oracle Rd. and Tangerine Rd.), sidewalk, multi-use path, vegetation, and bridge deicing. ADOT is responsible for maintaining the pavement and the bridges. |
| BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION: |
- Tangerine Road from Interstate 10 to State Route 77 falls within the following four jurisdictions: Town of Marana, Pima County, Town of Oro Valley and Arizona Department of Transportation.
- 1986, Pima Association of Governments (PAG) successfully petitioned the State Transportation Board of ADOT for the adoption and approval of a State Route designation for Tangerine Road from Interstate 10 to State Route 77.
- 2015, PAG Regional Council approved Resolution No. 2015 – 1, supporting declassifying the state planning route segment of Tangerine Road between Interstate 10 and SR77.
- Concurrence by the State Transportation Board removed the State Route 989 designation and designated Tangerine Road as a regional arterial road, except for the segment west of 1st Avenue through SR77, which remains as State Route 989 and under ADOT jurisdiction.
- 2017, ADOT submits waiver to Town of Oro Valley to accept ownership of the remaining segment of State Route 989, Tangerine Road, completing the reclassified to a regional arterial road with no future plans as a high speed limited access highway.
|
| FISCAL IMPACT: |
| Once ADOT performs the pavement work as outlined in their correspondence, the Town will include this segment into the Pavement Preservation Program anticipating a fog coat application in four years costing approximately $65,000. The bridges are in excellent condition and will not require maintenance work for several years. In addition, Tangerine Road is designated by PAG and ADOT as a regional arterial road, and therefore, eligible to receive regional and federal funds for bridge repairs. |
| SUGGESTED MOTION: |
| I MOVE to (adopt or deny) Resolution No. (R)17-11, authorizing the waiver of A.R.S. 28-7209, thereby accepting ownership and maintenance of right of way of Tangerine Road (formerly State Route 989). |
