5. DEFERRED BUSINESS
A. STATUS OF HIGHWAYS
Staff provided the Committee with a written update on the status of the Kern River
Freeway, Crosstown Freeway, Highway 99, South Beltway and the Coffee Road
Grade Separation. The Committee asked that staff provide more information on
the Crosstown Freeway and the southern alignment. CalTrans has given staff
notice that they anticipate closing the bike path at Highway 99 for six months.
Staff will be working to reassess the need and minimize that time frame.
There was also discussion as to any progress on traffic impact fees. A memo
from the Director of the County's Transportation Management Department was
distributed. Staff will prepare some information to present to the Committee at
their January 17 meeting regarding a possible local set aside for both City and
County, and a potential "isolation of monies" specifically designated for freeways.
6. NEW BUSINESS
A. SHAFTER CEMETERY ASSESSMENT
The City Attorney suggested de-annexing the City from the district so that citizens
would not have to pay the assessment. If citizens wanted to utilize the Shafter
Cemetery, should the City de-annex, Bakersfield citizens would likely have to pay
a higher price. The Committee asked staff to prepare information for a proposed
de-annexation and submit it to the City Council.
B, 1996 MEETING SCHEDULE
The Committee approved the proposed schedule with one change -- the February
meeting will be on the 15th and not the 14th. Staff will provide the entire Council
with a master schedule of all Council Committee meeting dates.
