Consider Resolution Authorizing the City’s FY 2018/19 Transportation Development Act Claim for Bicycle and/or Pedestrian Article 3 Purposes. Staff Recommendation: Adopt Resolution No. 2018-____. Item: 10.M. MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT TO: Honorable City Council FROM: Shaun Kroes, Program Manager DATE: 6/20/18 Regular Meeting SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Authorizing the City’s Fiscal Year 2018/19 Transportation Development Act Claim for Bicycle and/or Pedestrian Article 3 Purposes BACKGROUND On August 21, 2017, the City submitted an application to the Ventura County Transportation Commission (VCTC) for $531,180 in Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 Bicycle/Pedestrian Project Funds, with a local match of $68,820. The grant was to develop plans and estimates from schematic to design development stage for sidewalks and bikeways on Collins Drive between Campus Park Drive and Arroyo Drive and the railroad crossing along Arroyo Drive. As City Council may recall, the City has already been awarded $200,000 in TDA Article 3 funding to construct a sidewalk along the south side of Arroyo Drive, from the east side of the railroad crossing to the Simi Valley city limit line. DISCUSSION Pursuant to California PUC Section 99233.3, a portion of the available TDA Local Transportation Funds each year must be used for planning, maintaining, and constructing facilities for the exclusive use of pedestrians and bicyclists. Beginning in FY 2017/18, VCTC implemented a two-year (FY 2017/18 and FY 2018/19) combined call for projects for both TDA Article 3 and Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funding. The concept was to enable applicants to submit larger and potentially more regionally-focused grant applications. Twenty-one applications were submitted by seven agencies (including the City). The City’s project scored second and was recommended for full funding at the October 6, 2017 VCTC meeting, using FY 2018/19 TDA Article 3 funds. The City must submit a Item: 10.M. 919 Honorable City Council 6/20/2018 Regular Meeting Page 2 Resolution (Attachment 1) and a TDA Article 3 Claim Form (Attachment 3). Upon submittal of the documents, VCTC will send the grant payment to the City. FISCAL IMPACT The City is expected to receive $531,180 in TDA Article 3 funding in FY 2018/19. The FY 2018/19 Draft Budget reflects both revenue (revenue line 2411.000.00000.46200) and expense (expense line 2411.311.C0037.55300). Expense line 2001.311.C0037.55300 also includes the City’s local match requirement of $68,820. The reimbursement percentage is 11.47%, which means that each time the City pays for an eligible expense, payment should be split with 88.53% funded with TDA Article 3 and 11.47% funded with Traffic System Management Fund (2001).
