Fiscal Year 2022-B Pavement Maintenance Overlay Project -Anacapa

The Fiscal Year 2022-B Pavement Maintenance Overlay Project is a public works initiative managed by the City of Santa Barbara, specifically the Planning Division. Located at the intersections of Anacapa and Anapamu Streets and Anacapa and Figueroa Streets, the project focuses on safety and accessibility improvements within the public right-of-way. The primary scope of work includes replacing non-compliant access ramps with City Standard ADA compliant ramps, replacing existing cross gutters, and installing new signal poles, conduits, and foundations. Construction is largely limited to previously disturbed depths, with a maximum disturbance depth of 4 feet below the road surface, though four new signals will extend an additional 2 feet beyond existing depths. The project is classified as a forecast under NAICS code 237310 and is exempt from CEQA requirements as it involves minor alterations to existing facilities to improve safety without expanding use. Key compliance requirements include adhering to the City of Santa Barbara Noise Ordinance regarding construction hours and equipment operation, and implementing Best Management Practices to minimize erosion. Additionally, the contractor must use City Standard equipment approved by the Historic Landmarks Commission to maintain local street aesthetics. Due to the nature of the excavations, the project requires archaeological monitoring of initial ground-disturbing activities by a City-approved archaeologist in accordance with MEA Guidelines. Kaitlin Mamulski serves as the primary project planner and point of contact.
