Summary of Request

The City of Fort Bragg is contracting to install/replace concrete sidewalks, curbs, and/or gutter on the street corners adjacent to the County’s Fort Bragg Library.  These improvements are being undertaken as part of the 2025 Pavement Preservation Project at no cost to the County.  The proposed improvements will bring Fort Bragg neighborhoods further into compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).  As a component of these comprehensive street enhancements, the City is willing and desiring to improve portions of the County property.  The work area will be maintained in a neat and workmanlike condition, with affected areas restored to a clean and safe state. The proposed license agreement contains an indemnification clause for all claims arising out of the City’s project and the use of the area.  Maps of the license area and the project are attached to the license agreement.

 

In order to approve the license agreement, Government Code Section 25526.6 requires that the Board make two findings: that the conveyance is in the public interest and that the interest in the land conveyed will not substantially conflict or interfere with the use of the property by County.  Participation in the Pavement Preservation Project will improve ADA access around the County’s building at no cost to the County.  Secondly, the license will not substantially conflict or interfere with the use of the County’s property.  The County Library in Fort Bragg will remain usable during and after construction, and the outdoor portion of the property will have improved sidewalk access following construction.
