SUBJECT: General Information
Notable Items
The most recent quarterly sale tax update has been provided in the attached
memo from Finance Director Nelson Smith. This data reflects the activity and sales
during the months of October, November & December 2018. In summary, the
quarterly growth, comparing the most recent quarter with the same quarter last
year, was 1.25% and the annualized data so far, comparing the most recent four
quarters with the prior four quarters, is at 3.97%. The quarterly 1.25% is slightly below
budgeted estimates, but the annualized results are still on target to exceed
estimates for the current fiscal year.
Attached you will find the monthly Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP)
Status Report for the month of March. The report gives a summary of each TRIP
project in construction, in design, and under review. Completion percentages and
pictures of projects are also included.
Last week’s three-day CIF State High School Wrestling Championships at Rabobank
Arena brought a significant number of visitors to Bakersfield. This was the first year
that both the boys’ and the girls’ championships were combined into a single
event. In the past, the boys held a two-day event at Rabobank Arena while the girls
met in Visalia. According to AEG, 16,024 people came through the Arena doors
between Thursday and Saturday for the combined CIF wrestling
championships. That number was a mix of locals and out-of-town visitors, with the
percentage of out-of-towners being higher than the locals by at least two to
one. Accounting for people who attended more than one day of the event, AEG
estimates that the number of unique out of town attendees was around 3,500, plus
750 out of town wrestlers and 1,000 out of town coaches, for an estimated total of
5,250 out of town individuals attending the three-day event.
Near the end of the championships on Saturday, CIF Executive Director Roger Blake
commented to the crowd, “This has been a great weekend. So proud and
appreciative of the great hospitality and kindness of the Bakersfield community.
Lifetime of memories for a thousand girls and boys wrestlers."

Events like CIF have a major impact on local hotels and Visit Bakersfield reports that
this year was no exception. According to STR, Inc., Bakersfield-area hotel rooms
sales for Wednesday through Saturday of last week were up an average of 7%
compared with the same period the year before. The average daily rate that hotels
charged was up about 23% and hotel revenue was up about 33% over the previous
year. With the CIF event being held in Bakersfield a week earlier than last year,
these data provide a useful comparison between this year’s CIF weekend and last
year’s non-CIF weekend. The 2020 CIF High School Wrestling Championships for
both boys and girls will be held at Rabobank Arena February 27th-29th.
The first Citizens Oversight Committee meeting took place yesterday. The committee
members voted Beatris Sanders as their Chair and Barry Hibbard as the Vice-Chair.
All committee members were very attentive throughout and asked staff plenty of
good questions. No further actions were taken and the next Committee meeting is
scheduled for Monday, March 11th at 11:00 a.m. in the same location.
You may notice water in the river from the Golden State Avenue Bridge down
through to the Park at Riverwalk and on to 2800 acres. This is due to state water
recharge starting today, March 1st. Though it is not Kern River water at this time, it is a
nice amenity and will be good for groundwater levels. We anticipate the flow to last
at least a week.

There has been some attention and public interest in the application of pesticides
and herbicides in public parks and streetscapes. The City of Bakersfield Recreation
and Parks Department understands these concerns as well as employee safety. The
City employs a certified applicator of herbicides and pesticides to ensure all
employees and equipment is in compliance with the State Agriculture Commission
safety standards. The State Ag department performs periodic, unannounced
checks on park employees, vehicles and equipment while they are in the field. The
City of Bakersfield, in recent spot checks, has received perfect scores from the state
inspectors. A recent completed inspection form is attached.
Bakersfield is featured in SPG’s 2019 Sports Guide to California as one of “nine site
inspections of event-ready destinations and their top venues.” The profile begins:
“Bakersfield has all the cutting-edge facilities your team needs for world-class sports events, all while creating memories that will last a lifetime.”
The profile also features “Things to do in Bakersfield” and a testimonial from an event
planner, along with profiles of three local facilities: Rabobank Arena, Rabobank Theater and Convention Center and Tarina Homes Sports Complex at Mesa
Marin. The California guide is one of 16 destination guides produced by Sports Planning Guide (SPG), the largest circulation publication in the sports event planning
industry, with combined print and digital circulation of more than 86,000 print and digital readers. The Information and photos used in the magazine’s profile were
provided by Visit Bakersfield. The profile on Bakersfield can be found on the Visit Bakersfield website and is also attached here.
Lots of great shows have been announced for Bakersfield this past week! There are
two shows for the Spectrum Amphitheatre; Average White Band on April 18th and
RBRM: Bell Biv DeVor & Bobby Brown on June 14th. Another exciting announcement
is Toby Keith with special guest Ned LeDoux at the Rabobank Arena on August 23rd.
Tickets for all shows are on sale now.

Demolition is underway for the Belle Terrace Bridge at State Route 99, which was built in 1963.
Demolition work is performed during nighttime hours under full freeway closures. The new structure,
designed to meet current Caltrans standards, is expected to open to traffic in spring 2020.
The eastbound State Route 58 and southbound State Route 99 on-ramps from Real Road have been
permanently closed. The westbound State Route 58 off-ramp at Real Road will be permanently
closed in the near future. Motorists will continue to have freeway-to-freeway access during
construction. Motorists can enter and exit State Route 58 at the H Street/Chester Avenue
Interchange. Motorists can enter southbound State Route 99 at California Avenue or Ming Avenue.
The final phase of the Centennial Corridor Project has been advertised for construction bids. The
estimated $155 million construction project will construct the mainline between the Westside
Parkway and State Route 58, as well as the State Route 99 connector ramps. The City anticipates
opening bids from pre-qualified contractors on March 28, 2019. Construction is scheduled to begin
in spring 2019, with completion anticipated in 2022.

24th Street Improvement Project
Contractor: Griffith Company
11% complete; anticipated completion: spring 2020
The contractor is working on new drainage systems in various areas of 23rd Street and 24th Street,
replacing an outdated drainage system with new 48-inch pipe. The new drainage system addresses
recurring flooding issues along the corridor.
New sound walls located on the south side of 24th Street, between the canal to just east of Beech
Street, are under construction. Crews began setting block in late February. These walls will be 12 feet
high and match the sound walls constructed last year on the north side of 24th Street.
Access to and from the north side of 24th Street will be temporarily closed at Spruce Street, Pine Street,
Cedar Street, Alder Street, and Bay Street through mid-May. The contractor will be completing the
drainage system in this area and will then begin working on the new roadway.
The alleyways on the south side of 24th Street are open to residential and service use only. Signage has
been installed and will be enforced.
Motorists should anticipate potential shifts in traffic along the 23rd/24th Street corridor and use
alternate routes, such as Truxtun Avenue, whenever possible.
Centennial Corridor
The multi-phased Centennial Corridor project includes four large contracts and one smaller contract. The
first three phases are under construction. A smaller contract for a roundabout at the State Route
43/Stockdale Highway intersection is scheduled to begin this spring. The final phase of the Centennial
Corridor project has been advertised for construction bids, with bid opening scheduled for March 28.
Completion of all phases is expected in 2022.
Phase 1 - Kern River Bridge Improvements
Contractor: Security Paving Company
70% complete; anticipated completion: summer 2019
This phase constructs new bridges across Truxtun Avenue and the Kern River for the future westbound
exit from Centennial Corridor (State Route 58) to Mohawk Street and widens the existing eastbound
bridges crossing the Kern River and Truxtun Avenue to accommodate the future mainline.
The contractor has been removing falsework from the new Kern River Bridge that will carry westbound
freeway traffic to Mohawk Street. This work is expected to be completed in March.
Falsework is now being set for the widening of the existing eastbound Kern River Bridge. The widening
of the eastbound Kern River Bridge and bridge crossing Truxtun Avenue will accommodate the
Centennial Corridor mainline connection to the Westside Parkway.
The contractor has been forming the deck for the Truxtun Avenue bridge widening and anticipates
completing this work in March. Crews also finished forming and placed concrete for the retaining walls
at the adjacent bridge crossing Truxtun Avenue (Mohawk Street exit). Crews will form the stems and
soffit for this bridge in the coming weeks.
Embankment construction continues between the Kern River and Truxtun Avenue.

Phase 2 – Belle Terrace Operational Improvements
Contractor: Granite Construction
19% complete; anticipated completion: spring 2020
Demolition of the Belle Terrace Bridge is underway and the barrier and bridge deck were removed
along the southern edge of the bridge in late February. The contractor will complete bridge demolition
in March then begin structure excavation on the west side of the freeway for the new bridge. Until the
new bridge is completed, Belle Terrace (between State Route 99 and Real Road) should be used by local
traffic only as there is no outlet. A temporary road will be paved along the future Alamo Street alignment
to provide access to residents who live on the Mona Way cul-de-sac until the new road is completed.
Construction of the new northbound State Route 99 to eastbound State Route 58 connector bridge is
underway. The southern abutment and two columns have been completed. The northern abutment is
under construction. Once the abutments and columns are completed, the contractor will begin setting
falsework for this structure over Wible Road.
Sound walls, concrete barriers, and fencing have been removed within the project area along the top
slopes of northbound and southbound State Route 99. During the next month, crews will begin working
along the east side of northbound State Route 99 in preparation of constructing a new retaining wall.
New striping and temporary concrete barrier rail have been installed along southbound State Route
99, and three lanes are open to traffic in both directions. The new configuration creates space to
construct the center column for the new Belle Terrace Bridge.
Phase 3 – Bakersfield Freeway Connector
Security Paving Company
0% complete; anticipated completion: summer 2021
This phase of the project will reconstruct the westbound-to-southbound loop ramp at the State Route
58/State Route 99 interchange. An auxiliary lane will be constructed on westbound State Route 58 and
the bridge crossing over State Route 99 will be widened. The eastbound and westbound State Route 58
connectors will be combined into one branch connecting to southbound State Route 99. The project will
shift the entrance of the Ming Avenue off-ramp to the north and construct a barrier-separated connector
to Ming Avenue. Sound walls will also be constructed with the project.
Construction activities began in late February. The eastbound access to State Route 58 and
southbound State Route 99 from Real Road has been permanently closed. The westbound State Route
58 off-ramp to Real Road will be permanently closed in early March.
Freeway-to-freeway access will continue during construction. A temporary ramp will be built to
maintain access from westbound State Route 58 to southbound State Route 99 during the reconstruction
of the loop connector ramp.
With the closures of the Real Road on- and off-ramps motorists can enter and exit State Route 58 at
the H Street/Chester Avenue interchange. Motorists can use either California Avenue or Ming Avenue
to access southbound State Route 99.
Phase 4 – Mainline & SR 58/SR 99 Ramp Connectors
Advertised for construction bids; anticipated completion: summer 2022
This phase will construct the freeway mainline and connector ramps between State Route 58/State
Route 99 and the Westside Parkway.

Westpark street improvements and sound walls have been completed.
Bid opening is scheduled for March 28 and construction is expected to begin in late spring.
State Route 43/Stockdale Highway Roundabout
Contractor: Griffith Company
0% complete; anticipated completion: 2020
This project will improve traffic circulation by replacing the existing 4-way stop with a roundabout at
the State Route 43 (Enos Lane) and Stockdale Highway intersection.
Utility relocations are currently underway. Construction is scheduled to begin in spring 2019.
Rain and other inclement weather conditions can impact construction activities and project schedules.
Many activities cannot be performed in the rain, when the ground is wet, or when temperatures are too
low. In addition, Caltrans does not allow lane and ramp closures during rain or foggy conditions.
Construction activities may be canceled and rescheduled without prior notice. TRIP staff appreciates the
public’s patience as our contractors make the necessary scheduling adjustments to work around
changing weather conditions.
