A RESOLUTION OF THE ROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL MAKING
CERTAIN FINDINGS AND DETERMINATIONS WITH RESPECT TO
THE INSTALLATION OF TRAFFIC SIGNAL MODIFICATIONS AT
VARIOUS INTERSECTIONS FOR THE BENEFIT OF REDEVELOPMENT
PROJECT AREA NO. 1, AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF
AN AGREEMENT FOR COOPERATION BETWEEN THE REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCY AND THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD.
WHEREAS, the City Council and the Redevelopment Agency desires
that the certain improvements be installed, consisting of installation
of traffic signal modifications at the following intersections:
Garvey Avenue at Jackson Avenue
Garvey Avenue at Kelburn Avenue
Garvey Avenue at Delta Avenue
Garvey Avenue at Walnut Grove Avenue
Garvey Avenue at Muscatel Avenue
Garvey Avenue at Rosemead Place and River Avenue
Hellman Avenue at San Gabriel Boulevard
Hellman Avenue at Walnut Grove Avenue
Walnut Grove Avenue at Fern Avenue
Walnut Grove Avenue at San Gabriel Boulevard
NOW, THEREFORE, the Rosemead City Council resolves as follows:
SECTION 1. The Council hereby finds, determines, and declares
as follows:
(a) The payment by the Rosemead Redevelopment Agency
of the costs of the improvements as set forth in the
Cooperation Agreement attached hereto and incorporated
herein by this reference, is of benefit to Project Area.
(b) Garvey Avenue, San Gabriel Boulevard, Hellman
Avenue and Walnut Grove Avenue are major streets serving
the Commercial/Industrial District, and the developing
commercial park in the southerly project area.
(c) The intersections designated for upgrading of
traffic signal hardware are heavily travelled by vehicular
as well as pedestrian traffic which serve the commercial/
industrial portions of the project area.
(d) The subject intersections have existing traffic signal
hardware that is outdated and is counterproductive to
efficient processing of vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
(e) Because each of the subject intersections are
currently used as commuter routes to and from the project
area, the improvements will accomodate greater traffic
volumes providing safer access within, and to the project
area. This, in turn, will allow for more intensive
development to occur and reduce the present danger to
motorists and pedestrians travelling to and from the project
area.
•
•
(f) The improvements will decrease the accident
potential and provide energy savings to commuters through
efficient traffic controls.
SECTION 2. That no other funds are reasonably available for
the improvements described in the Cooperation Agreement attached
hereto, and adequate Agency funds will be available to repay the City
of Rosemead for the cost of the improvements.
SECTION 3. The Mayor of the Rosemead City Council is hereby
authorized to execute the Cooperation Agreement between the City of
Rosemead and the Rosemead Redevelopment Agency, and the City Manager
is authorized to take all necessary steps to implement the Agreement.
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED this 8th day of September, 1981.
