RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution Authorizing the Filing of an Application for Regional Transportation Improvement Program Funds for the Alamo Canal Regional Trail, I-580 Undercrossing Project and Approving the Assurances set forth in the Application. Submitted By Public Works Director Review By Assistant City Manager Page 1 of 2 ITEM NO. • ~` (~ DESCRIPTION: The City of Dublin has been working jointly with the East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD), the City of Pleasanton, Zone 7 and Caltrans to plan, fund, design and ultimately construct the Alamo Canal Regional Trail, I-580 Undercrossing Project. In 2008, EBRPD (in collaboration with the Cities of Dublin and Pleasanton) obtained funds from the Alameda County Transportation Improvement Authority (ACTIA) to complete the design plans and acquire the necessary permits to construct the project. Also in 2008, staff applied fora $1.6 Million California River Parkways grant from the State for construction of the project, but with the State's current economic crisis, these funds are not forthcoming. This gap closure project will connect the Alamo Canal Trail north of the freeway adjacent to the Ci#y Library (Attachment 1) with the Pleasanton trail south of the freeway and transform it into a regional trail. At this time, the Project is short $1,021,000 to fully fund construction and construction management. Staff applied for Federal funds through the Alameda County Congestion Management Agency's (CMA) 2010 Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP). The CMA is administering the application process for Alameda County cities, but the City has been instructed to direct the resolution to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission. A final Alameda County 2010 RTIP Proposal, which includes $1,021,000 of Federal Transportation Enhancements funds for the Alamo Canal Regional Trail Project, is scheduled to be approved by the CMA Board at its December 3, 2009, Board meeting. In order for a project to be programmed in the RTIP, the sponsors of the projects included in the 2010 RTIP are required to approve a Resolution authorizing the filing of an application for Regional Transportation Improvement Program funds and approving the assurances set forth in the project application. The resolution also authorizes the City Manager or designee to execute and file an application for the project. The Federal funds, if approved, will be available in Fiscal Year 2010-2011.
