   Recommendations for Council action, SUBJECT TO THE APPROVAL OF THE MAYOR:
   
   
   1. CONCUR with Recommendation Nos. 1, 2a, 2b, 3, and 4 of the Public Works and Gang Reduction Committee report dated February 20, 2019 (attached to C.F No. 15- 0411-S2).
      
      
   2. INSTRUCT the CAO to report the current construction timeline and the budget status of the Six Street Viaduct Replacement Project.

Fiscal Impact Statement: The CAO reports that there is no additional General Fund impact. Subject to a final determination by the FHWA, if the BOE's final appeal for the reimbursement of real estate costs incurred for the Sixth Street Project is denied, the Project would utilize up to $7.29 million from the CIEP for the repayment of non-reimbursable real estate costs (Parcels 14F and 25F). In addition, a $6 million MICLA allocation would be repurposed and used to partially offset funds currently dedicated to the BIP’s and Sixth Street Project’s construction activities. The balance (up to $1,289,200) will be derived from an existing BIP contingency account. The real estate expenses for the acquisition of Parcel 16F will be funded from the Sixth Street Project's Fund No. 54W, Sixth Street Viaduct Improvements Fund, which receives Federal grant reimbursement funds.

Debt Impact Statement: The CAO reports that the issuance of MICLA bonds is a General Fund obligation. The issuance of $6 million in MICLA bonds for the Sixth Street Project approved by the Council and Mayor in the Fiscal Year 2018-19 Adopted Budget, and subsequently reauthorized in a CAO/Chief Legislative Analyst joint report (C.F. No. 18-0600-S151), will cause the City to borrow a total of approximately $10 million, including $4 million in interest, over 20-years at an estimated 5.5 percent interest rate. During the life of the bonds the estimated average annual debt service is $502,000 over the 20 years. Actual interest rates may differ as rates are dependent on market conditions at the time of issuance. The CAO cannot fully predict what interest rates will be in the future. In accordance with the City’s Debt Management Policy, the City has an established debt ceiling to guide in evaluating the affordability for future debt. The debt ceiling for non-voted direct debt as a percentage of General Fund revenues is 6.0 percent. The City is currently at 4.15 percent for 2018-19. The issuance of the debt from this re-authorization will not impact the City’s debt capacity for non-voted approved debt as the issuance of debt for this project is already included in the debt ratio.

Community Impact Statement: None submitted.
