RESOLUTION OF THE SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL APPROVING AND
AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO SEND A LETTER TO REQUEST THAT
CALTRANS RELINQUISHES THE PROPERTY EAST OF REDWOOD HIGHWAY AND
CIVIC CENTER DRIVE AS DELINEATED IN EXHIBIT A (RELINQUISHMENT NO.
56162).
WHEREAS, in 2024 the State Department of Transportation (Caltrans) purchased
additional public right of way from 4040 Civic Center Drive in San Rafael for the purpose
of constructing a roundabout, sidewalk, and bicycle path (the “Project”) along Redwood
Highway and Civic Center Drive; and
WHEREAS, the newly acquired public right of way property is not continuous with the
State right of way and is adjacent to the City maintained public right of way; and
WHEREAS, during the design process the City and community requested additional
bicycle and pedestrian improvements that extended the improvements further outside the
existing right of way; and
WHEREAS, after the construction of the Project, Caltrans has no further interest in the
right of way not continuous with State right of way and adjacent to the local street; and
WHEREAS, the City agrees that the relinquishment will be used for public multi-modal
transportation uses; and
WHEREAS, California Streets and Highway Code, Section 73 et esq authorizes the
California Transportation Commission (CTC) to relinquish a portion of the State highway
to a city or county, provided certain steps are followed; and
WHEREAS, the City needs to issue a letter to the Caltrans District Director requesting
the relinquishment of the property east of Redwood Highway and Civic Center Drive as
delineated in Exhibit A (Relinquishment No. 56162) to the City; and
WHEREAS, the City Council must also consent to the relinquishment by resolution before
the CTC may relinquish a portion of any State highway or property to the City; and
WHEREAS, Caltrans must perform a cost-benefit analysis and then, if deemed a benefit,
negotiate terms of the relinquishment that are presented to the CTC for consideration;
and
WHEREAS, the City agrees to only accept the proposed relinquishment as delineated in
Exhibit A (Relinquishment No. 56162) at a zero-fee cost established by the Caltrans cost-
benefit analysis; and
WHEREAS, the City will maintain and continue transportation use of the facilities; and
WHEREAS, this action by the City Council is not a project under the California
Environmental Quality Act because the action is an administrative activity that will not
have final authority over the relinquishment, and future actions by the state are required
to relinquish the highway segment.
NOW, THEREFORE IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, ORDERED AND FOUND that the City
Council of the City of San Rafael, State of California, does hereby resolve as follows:
1. Requests and consents to the relinquishment of Segments 1 and 2 along Redwood
Highway and Civic Center Drive as delineated in Exhibit A (Relinquishment No.
56162) to the City after the completion of the Project, as allowed under Section 73
et seq. of the California Streets and Highways Code; and
2. Authorizes the City Manager to send a letter, in substantially the form attached, to
request Caltrans to initiate the relinquishment process for the property east of
Redwood Highway and Civic Center Drive as delineated in Exhibit A
(Relinquishment No. 56162) and take any further action as necessary to facilitate
the relinquishment.
I, LINDSAY LARA, Clerk of the City of San Rafael, hereby certify that the foregoing
Resolution was duly and regularly introduced and adopted at a regular meeting of the City
Council of the City of San Rafael, held on Monday, the 19th day of August 2024, by the
following vote, to wit:
