Title
PUBLIC HEARING - AMENDED SIX YEAR TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (T.I.P.) 2016- 2021
COUNCIL STRATEGIC INITIATIVE ADDRESSED:
Improve transportation systems
Improve streets and roads
CITY ATTORNEY REVIEW: N/A
SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Each year, the City adopts a Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program (T.I.P.) identifying transportation projects to be addressed during the subsequent six-year period. Any project receiving federal funds, and some state-funded projects, must be identified on the T.I.P., but the T.I.P. also identifies projects we intend to submit for grant funding. Throughout the year, priorities may change, additional projects may be identified, and project funding sources may change. Following a public hearing, the T.I.P. may be amended to account for such changes.
The current 2016 - 2021 T.I.P was adopted by the City Council on June 11, 2015 (Res. No. 2149). Staff recommends amending the 2016 - 2021 T.I.P. to adjust funding for two existing grant awards (Priority No. 1 & 2), and to include new transportation facility projects (Priority No. 12 & 13) and new public transit projects (Priority No. 4 & 5). In order to be eligible for this funding, the T.I.P. must be amended to identify these grant funds.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Conduct the public hearing.
