body
Statement of Issue:
In order to remain eligible to receive Measure M2 Program funding, the City must submit to the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) an adopted 7-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) in compliance with the renewed Measure M eligibility requirements.
Financial Impact:
No additional funding is required for this resolution. The City will receive Measure M2 funds of approximately $3.5 million in Fiscal Year 2019/20.
Recommended Action:
recommendation
Adopt the 7-year Capital Improvement Program (FY 2019/2020 through 2025/2026) included as Attachment #1 for compliance with renewed Measure M eligibility requirements.
end
Alternative Action(s):
Do not adopt the attached 7-year CIP for Measure M eligibility and forego M2 funding eligibility. This action would result in the loss of $3.5 million for the next fiscal year, and the loss of allocated and potential grant funding for traffic and street improvement projects.
Analysis:
On November 6, 1990, the Orange County voters approved the original Measure M, the revised Traffic Improvement and Growth Management Ordinance, for twenty years (1991-2011). On November 7, 2006 the Orange County voters approved Renewed Measure M. Renewed Measure M is a thirty year (2011-2041), multi-billion dollar program extension of the original Measure M.
Renewed Measure M net revenues are generated from the transactions and use tax plus any interest or other earnings-after allowable deductions. Net revenues may be allocated to local jurisdictions for a variety of programs identified in Ordinance No. 3. Compliance with the eligibility requirements established in Ordinance No. 3 must be established and maintained in order for local jurisdictions to receive Measure M net revenues.
The City must satisfy certain requirements to maintain eligibility in order to receive funding from OCTA. A key requirement is that the City adopt a 7-year CIP for the fiscal years 2019/2020 through 2025/2026, in compliance with the renewed Measure M eligibility requirements. The 7-year CIP, which is included as Attachment #1, identifies all projects currently and potentially funded by OCTA Measure M2 funds.
The following projects are identified in Attachment #1:
1. Arterial Rehabilitation FY 19/20 (Slater, Atlanta, Newland, Graham, Garfield, Newland, Talbert, Brookhurst)
2. Atlanta Avenue Widening from Huntington St. to Delaware St.
3. Brookhurst Street Synchronization
4. Citywide Concrete Replacements
5. Edinger Avenue Synchronization
6. General Street Maintenance for Public Works
7. Huntington Beach Catch Basin Retrofit Project
8. Huntington Beach Northwest Catch Basin Retrofit Project
