COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT 10/26/76
FOR MEETING OF:
ITEM TITLE: Resolution - Proposed Federal Aid Urban Program Submission
No. 8377
SUBMITTED BY Director of Public works/City Engineer
ITEM EXPLANATION
By previous Council Action, projects totaling five million dollars have
been submitted to the City/County Thoroughfare Advisory Committee for
prioritization under the new Federal Aid Urban (FAU) Program.
Subsequent to that submittal, Council adopted Resolution 8295, on
August 17, 1976, approving a new procedure for the improvement of
Federal Aid Urban Program submission. The older program rated each
individual project as submitted, regardless of the type of facilities.
The new procedure has three classes of projects. Those three classes
are projects on the regional highway system, transit related projects,
and local projects.
The deadline for submitting projects has been extended and the sub-
mission of new projects, we believe, is appropriate. The old projects
will be appropriately classified as to whether or not it is a local,
transit or a regional project by the Thoroughfare Committee.

Item 1 - Bus Maintenance System Facility and Transit Center - This project
was previously submitted as two separate projects for consideration by
the Thoroughfare Committee. The projects were entitled "Transit Equipment
Facilities" and "Transit Passenger Facilities". This involves the site
selection, design, and construction of a maintenance facility for at least
16 buses and a transit center/transfer point to serve as the hub of a
"pulse-schedule" operation. The purpose of the project is to provide the
fixed facilities necessary to expand Chula Vista bus service and to convert
to pulse-scheduling which will improve the CVCBL/SDTC Interface.
Items 2 through 5 involve resurfacing or reconstruction of existing City
streets to avoid projected pavement failures as determined by a "road-rater"
inspection of the existing streets. This project includes streets which
are in our overlay program. This project has now been submitted since
the new procedure allows for overlay projects upon regional highways.
The new projects, plus additional funding for the two transit facilities,
plus the previously submitted projects brings the total requested FAU fund-
ing to $5,301,600. Per Federal Regulations, the City is obligated to fund
with either State Gas Tax funds or General Funds approximately 180 of each
project. However, it is unlikely that all of our projects will be approved
since the total two-year program £or San Diego County region is $12,000,000+
and there will be many more requests for projects than funds available.
Council will be advised of the status of the City of Chula Vista's pro-
posals at appropriate states of the relatively complex approval process.
