ITEM 6-C
Council Meeting, October 25, 1994 Santa Monica, California
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: City Staff
SUBJECT: Resolution Approving Program Supplement No. 14
Revision 2 to Local Agency/State Agreement 07-5107
for Federal Funds for the Upgrading and
Modernization of Traffic Signals on Wilshire
Boulevard between Ocean Avenue and East City Limit
Introduction
This report recommends that the City Council adopt the
attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute
Supplement No. 14 Revision 2 to Local Agency/State Agreement
07-5107 for Federal funds for the upgrading and
modernization of traffic signals on Wilshire Boulevard
between Ocean Avenue and East City Limit.
Background
In 1977, the City of Santa Monica and Caltrans entered into
a Local Agency/State Agreement which set forth the
proportionate shares for federally funded
transportation/street projects. As new federally funded
projects for the City of Santa Monica are approved for
construction, supplements to the original agreement must be
authorized by resolution.
The resolution approving Program Supplement No. 14 was
passed by the City Council in October of 1992 for the
upgrading and modernization of traffic signals on Wilshire
Boulevard between Ocean Avenue and East City limit.
Originally, the project was entirely funded by Federal Aid
Urban (FAU) monies. However, due to passage of new
legislation, the State of California can now match part of
the new Federal Congestion Management Air Quality (CMAQ)
Funds with State Traffic System Management (TSM) Funds.
This change in the funding sources does not alter the
City's fiscal position or allocation . The current proposed
revision to Supplement No. 14 specifies the sources of funds
(88.53% CMAQ and 11.47% State TSM).
Budget/Financial Impact
The recommendation presented in this report does not have
any budget or fiscal impact.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached
resolution approving Program Supplement No. 14 Revision 2 to
Local Agency/State Agreement 07-5107 for the upgrading and
modernization of traffic signals on Wilshire Boulevard.
