BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City of Lodi became eligible for Federal
Transportation Administration (FTA) funds in July
1991. The City is in the process of submitting its
first application to FTA to obtain funding for the existing transportation
program and for future transportation projects. James Brown and Associates,
the City's transportation contractor, is assisting the City with the
appropriate documentation; however, certain documents must be signed by an
authorized representative of the City of Lodi.
The City Manager is the logical individual to have as the signature to the
documents as he will be accessible to staff and will be working directly with
staff to confirm that the application is complete and accurate.
