THRU: John B. Bahorski, City Manager
FROM: Mark K. Vukojevic, Director of Public Works /City Engineer
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF THE CIRCULATION ELEMENT —
MEASURE M ELIGIBILITY
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
The proposed action will approve a resolution approving the City's Circulation Element
for Measure M eligibility.
BACKGROUND:
Each year the City must submit an application in order to maintain eligibility to receive
Measure M funding from OCTA. A bi- yearly requirement of the application for Measure
M Streets and Roads turnback funds require that cities shall adopt:
• A General Plan Circulation Element that is consistent with the Master Plans of
Arterial Highways, and;
• A valid City Council Resolution attesting that no unilateral reduction in lanes has
been made on any MPAH arterials.
FISCAL IMPACT:
If the City does not pass the resolution, the City will be in jeopardy of losing Measure M
funding. Currently, the City receives approximately $300,000 in Measure M turnback
funding annually.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve a resolution approving the City's
Circulation Element for Measure M Eligibility.
