BY AND BETWEEN CVAG AND THE CITY OF LA QUINTA
AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF LA QUINTA TO PROVIDE 76% OF THE LOCAL
SHARE OF COSTS FOR A HIGHWAY BRIDGE PROGRAM GRANT FOR THE
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW BRIDGE OVER THE WHITEWATER
RIVER ON DUNE PALMS ROAD IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $1,506,750 AS
THE CVAG REGIONAL SHARE OF THE PROJECT COSTS
THIS AGREEMENT, effective this - 3rd day of December, 2013, by and
between the City of La Quinta (Agency), and the Coachella Valley ' Association of
Governments (CVAG), a California joint powers agency, and is made with reference to
the following background facts and circumstances:
The Transportation Project Prioritization Study, a valley -wide study prepared and
regularly updated under the auspices of CVAG, has identified various transportation and
highway projects throughout the Coachella Valley as projects of regional importance;
and,
Approval of a highway financing measure by the voters of Riverside County in
November, 1988, (Measure A), as well as the approval of an extension of Measure A by
the voters in November, 2002, has created a source of funds with which to construct
such projects; and,
CVAG, by agreement with its member agencies and with the Riverside County
Transportation Commission (RCTC), has been designated as the agency through which
such funds are to be conveyed and disbursed for the purpose of completing said
regional transportation projects; and, _
The CVAG Executive Committee, on July 31, 2006, approved the implementation
of the amended Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) Ordinance to increase
the collected TUMF, effective January 1, 2007; and,
Under CVAG's. policy of funding eligible projects by member jurisdictions,
effective January 1, 2007, the responsible jurisdiction(s) will be responsible for paying
Twenty-five Percent (25%) of the project costs (the Local. Share), as well as any
ineligible project costs, and CVAG will be responsible for Seventy-five Percent (75%) of
eligible project costs (the Regional. Share). Historically, the CVAG Regional Share has
been paid as a reimbursement to the jurisdiction, as invoices are submitted and
approved; and,
CVAG has determined that as to member jurisdictions that do not participate in
the TUMF program, projects will continue to go forward under the existing
Reimbursement Policy; and,
Agency, desires to enter an agreement for the project known as the Project to
Design and Construct a New Bridge over the Whitewater River on Dune Palms
Road, (hereinafter, the "Project"), in the amount not to exceed $1,506,750. The total
estimated cost of the Engineering Design through the Construction Phase of work
is estimated as $17,510,000. The Highway Bridge Program grant provides
$15,501,000, leaving the remaining costs as the Local Share, being $2,009,000. The
City of La Quinta is requesting that CVAG pay 75% of the Local Share of the Dune
Palms Road Bridge project. CVAG's Regional Share of Project costs is not -to -
exceed $1,606,760, being 75% of the anticipated Local Share of Project costs.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and subject to the
conditions contained herein, the parties do agree as follows:
1. The program embodied in this Agreement for the reimbursement of funds
by CVAG shall apply only to those regional arterial projects that have heretofore been
identified in the CVAG Transportation Project Prioritization Study. The Project is one of
those projects and is therefore eligible.
2. The Project is generally described and referred to as the Project to
Design and Construct a New Bridge over the Whitewater River on Dune Palms
Road. The Project to Design and Construct a New Bridge over the Whitewater
River on Dune Palms Road will intersect the Coachella Valley -wide project known as
the CV Link. As such, the design details for the new bridge on Dune Palms Road will
provide the appropriate vehicle/ pedestrian undercrossing or overcrossing design
elements as part of the Project. CVAG staff will coordinate with Agency on any design
element requirements.
Any excess property purchased to secure the necessary right-of-way for
the Project will be shared between the Agency and the Regional Arterial Program
proportionately according to the funding of the purchase by each jurisdiction participating
in the project. Excess property will be disposed of in the best interests of the Regional
Arterial Program, in order to recapture funds expended. Any recaptured funds will
reduce the overall cost of the project.
3. The scope of work for the Project is more particularly described in Exhibit
"A," entitled "Scope of Services," attached hereto and made a part hereof. The cost
estimate for the Project is more particularly described in Exhibit "B," entitled
"Estimate of Cost," attached hereto and made a part hereof. The cost estimate includes
a calculation intended to allow Agency to recover an amount representing the time of its
employed staff in working on the Project, as well as the amount Agency shall pay to
outside contractors in connection with the Project. Subject to the terms herein and all
applicable rules regarding allowed costs, the amount of the Jurisdiction One -Quarter and
the CVAG Three -Quarters shall be calculated by reference to the cost estimates as
shown on Exhibit "B." Exhibit "C," attached hereto and made a part hereof, is the
"Project Schedule."
This Agreement. shall establish a "Time Trigger" which will require
that start of the Project to Design and Construct a New Bridge over the Whitewater
River on Dune Palms Road, must begin within Five Years .of the. date of execution
of the Reimbursement Agreement with the City of La Quinta.
4. The City of La Quinta estimates the total cost of the Project to Design
and Construct a New Bridge over the Whitewater River on Dune Palms Road will
be approximately $17,510,000. The City intends that the Highway Bridge Program grant
provides $15,501,000, leaving the remaining costs as the Local Share, being
$2,009,000. CVAG's 75% Regional Share will equal $1,506,750 and the City of
Coachella's Local Share will equal $502,250, as well as one hundred percent (100%) of
all costs not eligible for reimbursement by CVAG. This Agreement shall establish that
CVAG may decline, or delay, to provide regional funds for the Project to Design
and Construct a New Bridge over the Whitewater River on Dune Palms Road,
should it be determined that such action is necessary to maintain a minimum
balance of regional funds.

reimbursement by CVAG.
All invoices submitted to CVAG for reimbursement shall include a table
identifying "Capacity Enhancement" costs eligible for payment with TUMF,
"Rehabilitation" costs eligible for payment with Measure "A", and other costs that are not
eligible for reimbursement by CVAG.
5.3 Upon receipt of an invoice from Agency, CVAG may request
additional documentation or explanation of the Project costs. Undisputed reimbursement
amounts shall be paid by CVAG to Agency within thirty (30) days. In the event that the
Agency is delinquent in payment of any past due invoices related to any regional
transportation 'project, CVAG may deduct the amount owed from the reimbursement
amount requested by the Agency on this project.

Enhancement and/or Rehabilitation, and to provide CVAG staff with that information.
8. The parties agree that should unforeseen .circumstances arise which
result in new work not covered in Exhibit 'A" an increase of any costs over those shown
in Exhibit "B," or other changes in the Scope of Work are proposed, CVAG will in good
faith consider an amendment to this Agreement to provide for further appropriate
reimbursement if the proposed amendment is in accordance with the policies,
procedures, and cost determination/expense eligibility criteria adopted by CVAG. Non -
substantive changes may be made to this agreement subject to CVAG's General
Counsel's approval.

AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF LA QUINTA TO PROVIDE 76% OF THE LOCAL
SHARE OF COSTS FORA HIGHWAY BRIDGE PROGRAM GRANT FOR THE
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW BRIDGE OVER THE WHITEWATER
RIVER ON DUNE PALMS ROAD IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $1,506,750 AS
THE CVAG REGIONAL SHARE OF THE PROJECT COSTS
The City of La Quinta is requesting regional funding. support for the design and
construction of anew bridge over the Whitewater River on Dune Palms Road. The Dune
Palms Road Bridge over the Whitewater Channel is an approved project in CVAG's
Transportation Project Prioritization Study (TPPS) and is ranked at 11.0 Priority Points,
with the highest ranked projects earning 16.0 Priority Points, which places the Dune
Palms Road bridge project in the Top 10 Percent of TPPS projects.
As a Top 10 Percent of TPPS project it is likely the Dune Palms Road bridge project
would rise to become eligible to receive CVAG Regional Funds within the life of the
current 2010 TPPS. Without the HBP funding, and in the normal course of events, the
CVAG Regional Share of this project's costs could be as much as $13,132,500. Receipt
of the HBP funds provides a substantial incentive to include CVAG Regional Funds in
order to proceed with the project at this time.

SHARE OF COSTS FOR A HIGHWAY BRIDGE PROGRAM GRANT FOR THE
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW BRIDGE OVER THE WHITEWATER
RIVER ON DUNE PALMS ROAD IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $1,506,750 AS
THE CVAG REGIONAL SHARE OF THE PROJECT COSTS
The City of La Quinta estimates the total cost of the Project to Design and Construct a
New Bridge over the Whitewater River on Dune Palms Road will be approximately
$17,610,000. The City intends that the Highway Bridge Program grant provides

75% Regional Share will equal $1,506,750 and the City of Coachella's Local Share will
equal $502,250,. as well as one hundred percent (100%) of all costs not eligible for
reimbursement by CVAG. This Agreement shall establish that CVAG may decline, or
delay, to provide. regional funds for the Project to Design and Construct .a New
Bridge over the Whitewater River on Dune Palms Road, should it be determined
that such action is necessary to maintain a minimum balance of regional funds.
In the event that the Agency is delinquent in payment of any past due invoices related to
any regional transportation project, CVAG may deduct the amount owed from the
reimbursement amount requested by the Agency on this project.
In addition, and as the concept has been approved through CVAG Policy 10-04, a "Time
Trigger" shall be established as to when CVAG funds support may be withdrawn from
this project. The Time Trigger will provide that start of work on the Project must begin
within Five Years of the date of execution of the Reimbursement Agreement with the
City of La Quinta for the Project to Design and Construct a New Bridge over the
Whitewater River on Dune Palms Road. If work on the Project has not started after five
years, the City of La Quinta will be required to again submit the project for consideration
to receive CVAG regional fund support.
.Failure by the City of LaQuinta to comply, with the conditions of the Time Trigger will
require the City to repay any regional funds advanced for the initial phases of the project
which do not meet the deadlines established by the Time Trigger as described. Regional
funds subject to repayment will accrue interest at the rate for the Local Agency
Investment Fund (LAIF), as determined on July 1st of each year. Repayment schedules
for regional funds will be subject to negotiation and approval by the CVAG Executive
Committee.
This Agreement shall establish that CVAG may decline, or delay, to provide regional
