TITLE
Recommendation to adopt resolution authorizing City Manager to execute all master agreements, program supplemental agreements, fund exchange agreements, fund transfer agreements, and any amendments thereto, with the California Department of Transportation. (Citywide)
DISCUSSION
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is the administrator of state and federal funds that flow to cities, which they administer in compliance with their Local Assistance Procedures Manual. Acceptance and expenditure of state and federal funds generally requires the execution of a master agreement covering the city as a whole, as well as program and funding agreements specific to projects. The attached resolution is required by Caltrans to authorize the City to enter into all agreements required by their Local Assistance Procedures to expend state and federal funds.
This matter was reviewed by Deputy City Attorney Amy R. Burton on June 28, 2007 and Budget and Performance Management Bureau Manager, David Wodynski, on June 28, 2007.
TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
Council action is requested on July 10, 2007 to meet Caltrans requirements.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action since this action only authorizes the City Manager to execute all Caltrans agreements. Funding for specific projects will continue to come before Council on a project-by-project basis, in accordance with City policies and procedures.
SUGGESTED ACTION
Approve recommendation.
