Box 5001 Victorville, California 92393-5001 May 19, 2025 San Bernardino County Transportation Authority Attention: Ginger Koblasz 1170 W. 3rd Street, Second Floor San Bernardino, CA 92410 RE: Extension Request – Old Town Sidewalk Connectivity Project - Phase 2 Dear Ms. Koblasz, On behalf of the City of Victorville, I am writing to formally request a time extension for Victorville’s Active Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 project titled Old Town Sidewalk Connectivity - Phase 2. The project PS&E phase experienced delays due to the City’s need to respond to several unforeseen emergency infrastructure projects that required the immediate attention and redirection of City resources. These emergency efforts were necessary to protect public safety and infrastructure integrity, impacting our ability to complete the PS&E phase as initially scheduled. We are pleased to inform you that the PS&E phase was recently completed, the project advertised, and a contract has been awarded. Construction is scheduled to begin shortly. We anticipate project completion by the end of Summer 2025. To prevent any further delays, the City of Victorville has implemented the following measures: • Designated dedicated project management staff to oversee all phases of construction. • Finalized all permitting and pre-construction requirements in advance. • Developed a detailed project schedule with milestone tracking and regular progress updates. • Established contingency protocols to quickly address any unforeseen issues. With these steps in place, we are confident the project will proceed without further interruption. We respectfully request one (1) extension of current project deadline to allow for construction to be completed and project closeout. We appreciate SBCTA’s continued support and partnership in improving pedestrian infrastructure in Old Town Victorville. Should you need additional documentation or information to process this request, please do not hesitate to contact me at fbonilla@victorvilleca.gov or 760-955-5200. Sincerely, Fredy A. Bonilla, P.E. City Engineer
