Title
Adopt Resolutions of Necessity for the State Route 91 Improvement Project Between State Route 57 and State Route 55
Overview
The Orange County Transportation Authority is implementing the State Route 91 Improvement Project between State Route 57 and State Route 55 (Project). The Project requires acquisition of property rights from public and private parties adjacent to the existing freeway and city streets. Currently, staff has been unable to reach or finalize an agreement to purchase required property rights from the subject properties. It is necessary for the Board of Directors to adopt resolutions of necessity and commence the eminent domain process to obtain possession of required property rights to maintain the Project delivery and construction schedules.
