GENERAL PLAN IMPLEMENTATION Growth Management Element Goal 2.0 Provide for adequate regional and local transportation facilities. Policy 2.1: cooperate with other agencies to address regional issues and opportunities related to growth, transportation, infrastructure, and other planning issues. 7. DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND The Combined Transportation Funding Program was established in 1992 as a program for disbursement of multiple local transportation funds including Measure M '/2 cent sales tax, passed by the voters in November 1990. Project applications are submitted every two years. Renewed Measure M (M2) approved by the voters in 2006 is a 30 -year, multi - billion dollar program extension of the original Measure M (approved in 1990) with a new slate of planned projects and programs. These include improvements to the County freeway system, streets and roads network, expansion of the Metrolink system, more transit services for seniors and the disabled as well as funding for the cleanup of roadway storm water runoff. OCTA shall select projects through a competitive process for Project O (Regional Capacity Program), Project P (Regional Signal Synchronization), and the transit program (Projects S, T, V and W). Each program has a specific focus and evaluation criteria as outlined in the manual. Currently, OCTA has issued a call for projects for the three RCP funding programs: Arterial Capacity Enhancement (ACE), Intersection Capacity Enhancement (ICE), and Freeway Arterial /Streets Transitions (FAST). Jurisdictions must conform to annual eligibility requirements in order to receive fair share funding and participate in the CTFP funding process. Key requirements include: • Timely use of funds (expend within three years of receipt) • Meet maintenance of effort requirements • Use of funding on transportation activities consistent with Article XIX of the State Constitution • Include the project in a seven -year capital improvement plan (CIP) • Consistency with MPAH, Pavement Management Program, and Signal Synchronization Master Plan The Public Works Department has identified three intersection/street segments which meet the minimum criteria for the Regional Capacity Program funding participation under this competitive funding program. The projects are: I . Tustin/Katella intersection (right turn addition southbound Tustin to westbound Katella) 2. Tustin/Meats intersection improvement (right turn addition for northbound Tustin to eastbound Meats) 3. Tustin/Chapman intersection (right turn addition for southbound Tustin to westbound Chapman) ITEM 2 10/14/14 C oPrinted on Recycled Paper Because the Comprehensive Transportation Funding Program is structured to be competitive with all of the agencies in the County of Orange, it is not known at this time which of the projects the City is submitting will be approved. 8.
