FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
Adopt resolution directing Staff to apply for funding
If the City of Dublin' s Federal grant application is approved, the
City will receive an additional $94,376 to fund the City' s 2000-2001
Street Resurfacing project. The City will be required to provide
11.5% local match ($12,264) to construct the project. Funding is
already included in the 2000-2001 budget, which will qualify as
matching funds.
DESCRIPTION: The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) will have an
additional $20 million in Surface Transportation Program funds available region wide for programming
in 2001 as a result of Revenue Aligned Budget Authority. MTC's policy calls for these funds to be used
for roadway rehabilitation projects. As part of the City' s grant application to MTC for these funds, a
Council resolution authorizing the filing of a grant application is required.
If the City receives this grant, funds in the amount of $94,376 will be available in fiscal year 2000-2001,
with the condition that the funds be obligated by September 30, 2002. It is proposed that these funds be
combined with the $345,000 in federal funds already set aside for the City' s street resurfacing project for
a combined total of $439,376. Federal funds can only be used for collector and arterial streets. Staff
intends to use these new funds to overlay portions of Dougherty Road, Village Parkway and San Ramon
Road.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution directing Staff to apply for funding from the
Surface Transportation Program and Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program.
