RESOLUTION NO. 2225 - ADOPT THE 2018 - 2023 SIX YEAR TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PLAN AND RIVERCITIES TRANSIT PROGRAM OF PROJECTS
COUNCIL STRATEGIC INITIATIVE ADDRESSED:
Improve transportation systems
CITY ATTORNEY REVIEW: REQUIRED
SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Each year, as required by state law, the City updates and adopts a Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program (T.I.P.). The T.I.P. is a priority listing of funded or proposed transportation-related projects within the City. The T.I.P. identifies the year and the funding sources for the various projects, as well as other basic information on the projects. In order to receive federal or state funding, a project must appear on the City’s adopted T.I.P. However, the T.I.P. may be amended by the City Council at any time to add or delete projects or change funding sources and amount, following a public hearing on the proposed amendment.
Additionally, federal law requires transit agencies receiving Federal Transit Administration funding to prepare a Program of Projects (POP) identifying the projects to be funded with such FTA funding, and to conduct a public hearing and outreach process prior to adopting the POP. The T.I.P. includes FTA funded projects and meets the requirements of the POP.
Resolution No. 2225 will adopt the 2018 - 2013 Six-Year Transportation Improvement Plan and the RiverCities Transit Program of Projects.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to adopt Resolution No. 2225.
