OTHER CONSIDERATIONS AS APPROPRIATE Clause Samples
The 'Other Considerations as Appropriate' clause serves as a catch-all provision that allows parties to address additional issues or requirements not specifically covered elsewhere in the agreement. In practice, this clause can be used to include miscellaneous terms, such as compliance with future regulations, special reporting obligations, or unique project-specific needs that may arise. Its core function is to provide flexibility and ensure that the contract can accommodate unforeseen circumstances or address matters that do not fit neatly into standard sections, thereby reducing the risk of omissions and enhancing the overall comprehensiveness of the agreement.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS AS APPROPRIATE. 7.1 Public Hearing Process
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS AS APPROPRIATE. Public Hearing Process No public hearing is required for this project. A CE/CE has been provided as the environmental document. State departments of transportation are bound by law to consider the needs of residents with low incomes, communities of color, people with limited English proficiency, seniors, the disabled, and other communities and individuals when developing transportation plans. Caltrans acknowledges that communities of color and underserved communities have experienced fewer benefits and a greater share of negative impacts associated with our State Transportation System. Some of these disparities reflect a history of transportation decision- making, policy, processes, planning, design, and construction that quite literally put up barriers, divided communities, and amplified racial inequities, particularly in our Black and Brown neighborhoods. Caltrans recognizes its leadership role and unique responsibility to eliminate barriers and provide more equitable transportation for all Californians. This understanding is the foundation for intentional decision-making that recognizes past, stops current, and prevents future ▇▇▇▇▇ from its actions. Furthermore, Caltrans is developing public outreach methodologies for increasing participation by disadvantaged community members and local community-based organizations to ensure that they have a voice on projects affecting those communities. There was no Community Impact Assessment prepared because this CAPM project does not create significant impacts to the public or specific communities.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS AS APPROPRIATE. Public Hearing Process No public meeting was required as part of the environmental process. A Community Impact Assessment report was completed, and letters were sent to community members adjacent to the project affected by the lighting. Also, letters were sent to the city of El Cerrito and the city Richmond to keep the locals informed about the project. The City of Richmond had no comment; the City of El Cerrito has not yet replied. Changes to the current freeway agreements are not anticipated, as the project will not change freeway access. The current freeway agreements are still valid. The project will not require any route adoptions. Relinquishments Relinquishments are not anticipated as part of the project.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS AS APPROPRIATE. Public Hearing Process An opportunity for a public hearing was offered for the recommended project proposal. A Public Notice was issued for a public review from July 17th to August 17th, 2020. There was no request made by the public or the project stakeholders for a formal public hearing to be held. Route Matters: Not applicable Permits: The following permits are needed for the proposed project • USACE, Clean Water Act Section 404, Nationwide Permit • CDFW, Section 1602, Lake or Streambed Alternation Agreement • RWQCB, 401 Water Quality Certification Cooperative Agreements There are no formal cooperative agreements identified at this stage of project development. Other Agreements The KDWD irrigation canals/ditches predate SR 119 (▇▇▇▇ highway). There are no known records of any common/joint use agreements, except for the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Ditch where there is a Utility Agreement (UA No. 06-1455.31) and a Consent to Common Use Agreement (CCUA Nos 06-1455.33-1 & 06-1455-31-2). Prior to any work within the KDWD rights-of-way, Caltrans will need to enter a joint use/common use agreement and coordinate the timing of the proposed construction work along these canals.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS AS APPROPRIATE. Public Hearing Process The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), District 10, held a Public Hearing on Thursday, September 7, 2017, for the North County Corridor Project ▇▇▇▇▇ Road to SR 120 (New State Route 108). The objective of the Project is to ultimately build a west-east expressway that will improve regional network circulation, relieve existing traffic congestion, reduce traffic delays, accommodate future traffic, and benefit commerce. The Public Hearing was held from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. in the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Center in Oakdale, California. The Public Hearing provided members of the public and other interested parties an opportunity to learn more about what is being planned and to comment on the Draft Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement (EIR/EIS) and Draft Section 4(f) De Minimis Finding for the project. Copies of the documents were available at the hearing for review. The Public Hearing was publicized through a jumbo postcard invitation sent by first-class U.S. mail, public notices (advertisements) in local newspapers, and a news release to print and broadcast mainstream and alternative media that serve the project area. Three hundred five persons were signed in at the Public Hearing and provided a print program for the evening with a comment sheet. Attendees were also invited to dictate comments, if preferable. The Public Hearing was conducted in an open house format. Attendees were invited to sign in as they entered the Community Center and were then met by Caltrans, the local North County Corridor Transportation Expressway Authority (NCCTEA), and other engineering and environmental project team specialists who accompanied them through the extensive map displays and other information stations. Seventy comment sheets were submitted and 24 attendees dictated comments to the court reporters. Eight comment sheets and emailed comments were submitted subsequent to the Public Hearing.
