DISCUSSION
The Orange County Transportation Authority's (aCTA's) Interstate 405 (1-
405) /State Route 55 (SR-55) Interchange Improvement Project is nearly
complete. The Cities of Santa Ana, Costa Mesa, and the majority of
businesses in the area have requested replacement landscaping at two key
interchanges to repair the conditions that deteriorated significantly
during the four-year construction period.
On June 27, 2005, the aCTA Board authorized the execution of a
cooperative agreement with the Cities of Costa Mesa and Santa Ana, in a
not to exceed amount of $1,343,000. This funding was allocated for the
design and installation of new landscaping at the I-405/Bristol Street
and SR-55/MacArthur Boulevard Interchanges (Exhibit 1).
Based on the cost estimate generated by Caltrans, the Cities of Costa
Mesa and Santa Ana would receive 40 and 60 percent of the funding,
respectively. This translates into funding allocations of $537,200 for

Costa Mesa for the I-405/Bristol Street Interchange and $805,800 for
Santa Ana for the SR-55/MacArthur Boulevard Interchange.
Further, the Cities of Costa Mesa and Santa Ana, as part of the
cooperative agreement, have agreed to manage their respective landscaping
projects and provide detailed monthly expenditure reports to aCTA. The
Cities have also agreed to fund any additional cost over the original
amount allocated, or reduce the scope of work to remain within their
respective budgets.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
aCTA previously filed an Initial Study/Environmental Assessment in July
1999 for the installation of landscaping at these two locations in
conjunction with the I-405/SR-55 Interchange Project.
FISCAL IMPACT
The appropriation adjustment will increase the Measure M Transitway
Program revenue account (account no. 32-01-5049) by $805,800 and the
expenditure appropriation by $805,800 (account no. 32-551-6631, project
no. 06-1015) to install new landscaping at the SR-55/MacArthur Boulevard
Interchange.
