CITY OF SAN JACINTO )
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN
JACINTO, CALIFORNIA, EXPRESSING A PREFERENCE FOR
THE RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
TO CONSTRUCT THE MID-COUNTY PARKWAY STARTING AT
THE EASTERN END AND WORKING WESTERLY
WHEREAS, the City of San Jacinto has been working with the Riverside
County Transportation Commission on the proposed Mid-County Parkway for a
number of years; and
WHEREAS, the City of San Jacinto has previously identified its preferred
alternative for the MCP within our corporate limits; and
WHEREAS, the Riverside County Transportation Commission has since
chosen the same alignment (identified in the EIR as the base alternative) as its
own preference; and
WHEREAS, the Mid-County Parkway will likely be built in phases due to
the complexity of the project, the size of the project and due to the availability of
funding; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED determined and ordered by the
City Council of the City of San Jacinto:
SECTION 1. The City Council finds and declares as follows:
1. That the Mid-County Parkway initial phase of construction
should begin at the east end of the project; and
2. The eastern portion of the project (through San Jacinto and
Lakeview) is largely on Ramona Expressway corridor and
the construction impacts are not significant; and
3. The land that must be acquired for highway right of way
within San Jacinto is entirely vacant at this time and the local
property owners are eager to work with RCTC; and
4. Finally, beginning construction in the east will help with the
coordination of the SR 79 realignment project and should
result minimal throw-away and/or overlapping work.
