body
Statement of Issue:
On February 18, 2014, the City Council approved the execution of a Cooperative Agreement with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) for a signal coordination project along Adams Avenue. The expiration date on this agreement was December 31, 2018. As OCTA has not completed the project, Amendment No. 1 will extend the term of the agreement until May 31, 2019. Funding is also requested to meet the City's matching funds obligations.

At the time of the execution of the Cooperative Agreement on February 18, 2014, funds in the amount of $181,495 were available in the Air Quality Management District (AQMD) fund (account 20190011.82700) for the City's share of the project. The City has remitted $142,227 to date to OCTA, leaving a balance of $39,268. To adequately provide for the remaining $39,268 in matching funds, an appropriation in the amount of $30,000 is being requested from the AQMD (201) Undesignated Fund Balance to account 20190011.82700. The balance of $9,268 will be comprised of in-kind services, including staff time spent on the project.
