AGENDA TITLEAdopt Resolution Approving the Established Overall Annual Disadvantaged
Business Enterprise (DBE) Goal of 7% for FHWA-Assisted Projects and 5% for
FTA -Assisted Projects for Federal Fiscal Year 2003-04
MEETING DATE: August 20, 2003
PREPARED BY. Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Established.Overall
Annual DBE Goal for Federal Fiscal Year 2003104 for
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)- and Federal Transportation
Administration (FTA) -assisted projects to facilitate timely submission to the
California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and FTA for funding authority approval on behalf of
the City of Lodi.
BACKGROUND INFORMATIM The City of Lodi is required to develop and submit an Overall
Annual Goal for DBE participation on U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) -assisted contracts, as a condition of federal
financial assistance, pursuant to revised regulations set forth under
Title 49 CFR Part 26, Pafficipation by Disadvantaged Business Enterprises in Department of
Transportation Programs. In accordance with these DBE regulations, the City of Lodi has established
Overall Annual DBE Goals for Federal Fiscal Year 2003/04 for FHWA- and FTA -assisted projects, to
ensure full compliance with relevant regulatory requirements,
The Established Overall Annual DBE Goal of 7% for IFFY 2003104 FHWA-assisted contracts and 5% for
FTA -assisted contracts addresses critical components and fulfills specific requirements for narrow
tailoring in accordance with 'Title 49 CFR Part 26. The City of Lodi's Established Overall Annual DBE
Goal was developed utilizing the federal prescribed two-step goal setting methodology, Step I included
establishing a Base Figure utilizing quantifiable evidence to determine the relative availability of DBEs
within specified industries identified as a part of the City's DOT assisted contracting projects anticipated
to be awarded by the City of Lodi within FFY 2003/04. The City utilized the Caltrans Calcert on-line
database of Certified DBE Firms and the 2001 U.S. Census Bureau County Business Patterns (CBS')
database to complete this step. Upon establishing the Base Figure, the City surveyed and assessed
other known relevant evidence to determine what additional adjustments, if any, were needed to
narrowly tailor the Base Figure to the City of Lodi's market area. Factors considered in the adjustment
of the Base Figure included the historical and current capacity of DBEs measured by actual attainments
on similar projects. Following the Council's approval of the Established Overall Annual Goal's for IFFY
2003/04, staff will submit to Caltrans and FTA for their final review.
The Estabiished Overall Annual Goals for Federal Fiscal Year 2003/04 will be updated annually to
maintain relevancy to local market conditions and factors impacting DBE availability.
