AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Execute Federal Transit
Administration (FTA) Funding Agreement Between the City of Lodi and the
City of Galt for Federal Fiscal Year 2002103
MEETING DATE: July 7, 2004
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the
City Manager to execute the FTA funding agreement between the
City of Lodi and the City of Galt for Federal Fiscal Year 2002/03.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: With the 2000 Census, the Lodi Urbanized Area boundaries were
redrawn by the U.S. Census Bureau to include the City of Galt, as well
as a portion of Sacramento and San Joaquin Counties. The FTA
uses these areas to apportion transit funding for agencies/areas
of 50,000 to 200,000 populations, which includes Lodi. With this designation, Lodi needs to coordinate
with the City of Galt to determine projects and funding for the FTA Section 5307 for Transit that is
apportioned to the Lodi Urbanized Area.
Both cities wish to retain control over their transit services, thus we have been working with the
San Joaquin Council of Governments, Sacramento Council of Governments and Sacramento County to
reach a consensus on how the funding will be split and what reporting requirements are needed. While
these discussions remain on-going, it has become necessary to make a determination on the Federal
apportionment for the Fiscal Year 2002103. Funds that remain unspent become in danger of being
redistributed to other areas, and the funding for the Lodi Urbanized Area funds could be lost. At a recent
meeting facilitated by Mayor Hansen, staff from both cities and Council Member Hitchcock and
Galt Mayor Darryl Clare concurred that we should work quickly to resolve FY 02103 and continue our
discussion on subsequent fiscal years.
The attached agreement serves to move this process forward and allocate the FY 2002/2003 funding
before it can be redistributed to others. The recommendation is that Lodi receive and program the entire
allocation. Gait's deferred share (17%) will be programmed in future years. Gait's share of future
allocations will be determined in a subsequent MOU.
FUNDING: None required.
