AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Master
Agreements and All Program Supplements for State -Funded Transit Projects
and Any Amendments Thereto with the California Department of
Transportation
MEETING DATE: June 20,2007
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute the
master agreements and all program supplements for State -funded
Transit projects and any amendments thereto with the California
Department of Transportation (Caltrans).
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City of Lodi currently has an executed master agreement with
Caltrans for Local Assistance projects. Previously, the City had not
received any funding from the Public Transit Account (PTA).
Recently, the City was allocated PTA funding for the maintenance
facility. That funding can not be accessed until these agreements are in place.
The master agreements detail all of the reporting requirements (matching funds, ADA, etc) that are
required to utilize State transit funding. The master agreements are good for ten years and cover all
eligible projects awarded to the City of Lodi which utilize State Transit funds. The program supplements
are required for each project and clearly state the individual projects scope, local match requirements.
and deadlines. A new program supplement is required for each project.
FISCAL IMPACT: Failure to execute the master agreements and program supplements would
prohibit the City from utilizing State funds for Transit projects, which currently
include $1.85 million in funding for the Municipal Service Center (MSC)
Transit Vehicle Maintenance Facility.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.
