RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF UKIAH GRANTING BLANKET AUTHORIZATION
TO THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE RIGHT-OF-WAY
CERTIFICATES AND OTHER PROJECT DOCUMENTS
WHEREAS, the City of Ukiah routinely must certify rights of way and execute
other project documents on Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and State of
California funded highway projects; and
WHEREAS, such certification is in the form of Right-of-Way Certifications
according to Caltrans procedures, which facilitate FHWA program regulations, as set
forth in the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual, dated 1 January 1998; and
WHEREAS, Caltrans regulations, as stated in Chapter 13 of the Local
Assistance Procedures Manual, provide that local public agencies may grant blanket
authorization to a particular officer, or his or her designee, to approve and sign such
Right-of-Way Certifications; and
WHEREAS, the City Manager is the appropriate City officer to sign such Right-
of-Way Certifications by virtue of being responsible for the City Maintained Street
System; and
WHEREAS, Caltrans encourages streamlining of procedures involving local
public agencies and has therefore suggested that blanket authorization be obtained by
the City Manager to approve and sign Right-of-Way Certifications, and other project
documents.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Ukiah City Council that the City
Manager be and hereby is authorized and directed to approve, execute, and sign Right-
of-Way Certifications and other project documents for all FHWA and State of California
funded projects on behalf of the City of Ukiah; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this authorization shall remain in force until
rescinded by this Council.
