BACKGROUND
The Transportation Development Act ITDA) and the TransNet Program provide fimding
support for regional bicycle and pedestrian capital improvement projects. SAc"iDAG
allocates those project funds to cities in the San Diego region based upon fimding
availability and project ranking. Staff has prepared funding applications fOf three projects.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Bayshore Bikeway Preliminary Design::
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed grant application for
funds to prepare the Bayshore Bikeway Preliminary Design for compliance with the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not
a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines at this time;
therefore, pursuant to Section 15060 (c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is
not subj ect to CEQA. Although envirolt1mental review is not necessary at this time, once a
project has been defined, enviro11Il1ental review will be required and a CEQA
determination completed priOf to commencing any development activities.
Iinstallation of the Bay Boulevard Bike Lane and Pedestrian Traffic Signal Upgrades:
The Environmental Review Coordinatof has reviewed the proposed grant applications for
installation of the Bay Boulevard Bike Lane and the installation of Pedestrian Traffic
Signal Upgrades for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)

and has determined that they qualify for a Class I categorical exemption pursuant to
Section 15301(c) (Existing Facilities) of the State CEQA Guidelines because they
involve the on-going operation of existing facilities. Thus, no further environmental
reVlew IS necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council adopt the resolution and approve submittal oft~e applications.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: N/A
DISCUSSION
This grant submission process has been an annual occurrence and has traditionally had a
submittal deadline in April. The City was just made aware that the submission deadline
was revised to February 5, 2007. It is our understanding that the City's grants office will
be presenting an overall summary of this year's known grant opportunities and City
proj ects identified for submission, which will be presented to Council in the coming
weeks. Unfortunately, this grant opportunity arose in advance of that report and thus
must be brought separately to City Council to meet the new February 5th deadline.
The City is eligible to compete for funding on an annual basis for bicycle and pedestrian
projects under the following programs:
Transportation Development Act (TDA): This fund provides support for the region's
public transit and non-motorized transportation projects, including sidewalk and bicycle
lane improvements. The revenue comes from V. % of the 7V. % retail sales tax coHected
statewide and distributed by county. Each year, SANDAG is locally responsible for the
allocation ofTDA funds in conformance with legislative and region-wide priorities.
TransNet Program: In 1987, San Diego County voters approved a half-cent sales tax to
finance transportation projects. County voters subsequently approved Proposition A in
November 2004 which enacted a 40-year extension of TransNet. A portion of TransNet
is used to finance bicycle facilities. This funding is combined with local, state and
federal dollars to improve the region's transportation network.
SANDAG's call for projects included a copy of the revised Bicycle and Pedestrian Claim
Guidelines (see Attachment A), which are used to administer this program.
City of Chula Vista Applications for IT 2007-08
Each year, the City participates in the claim process for TDA and TransNet bicycle and
pedestrian project funds by submitting an updated list of projects to SANDAG. The
evaluation process for TDA bicycle and pedestrian projects and TransNet bicycle projects
is consistent with the way SANDAG evaluates and prioritizes other components of the
transportation system such as arterial, highway, and transit projects. In addition, the
selection criteria support the overall goals and objectives SANDAG has for improving
the regional transportation system and promoting smart growth in the region by giving
priority to projects that enhance the existing transportation network as a whole. The
5-2

Page 3 of 4
criteria to be used in the evaluation protess are specified in the Project Selection Criteria
matrix for each project (see Attachment B).
I
For FY 2007-08, it is recommended that the City apply for funding for the following
proposed bicycle and pedestrian impro}/ement projects, which are further detailed in the
draft grant applications provided in Attachment B. These applications will be finalized
prior to the February 5 due date.
I. Bavshore Bikewav Preliminary Design: The regional Bayshore Bikeway Plan
was created through a collaborative process led by SANDAG. It was completed
and distributed by SAt"lDAG in March 2006. The Plan involves completing a 24-
mile bikeway from the foot of Broadway in downtown San Diego along the bay to
Imperial Beach, then back along the Silver Strand to Coronado.
Recommendations related to Chula Vista include completing the Class II bike
lane along Bay Boulevard (see Project #2), as well as constructing a Class I bike
path from the current northerly termination at E Street to the southerly portion of
the bike path at Main Street. Tbe construction cost of the bike path is estimated to
be approximately $2.0 million. The recommended aligmnent follows the SDG&E
right-of-way.
Although final design and constmction of this facility cannot commence until
completion of the Bayfront environmental documents and utility undergrounding
(to be completed by June 200$), funding for preliminary design would enable
work on the project to progress as soon as it is feasible. This work could involve
identification of necessary right-of-way acquisition and project constraints,
environmental studies and proposed mitigation, discussions with SDG&E and
other stakeholders, and recommendations for the final aligmnent and project
financing. The cost of preliminary engineering is estimated to be $300,000, and
the application of TDNTransNet funds will be for the total amount. It is
recommended that the work on this project commence after completion of the
Bayfront Environmental Impac~ Report (EIR), since this document is expected to
identify environmental constrairtts relating to this project.
2. Bav Boulevard Bike Lane betw~en F Street and J Street: This proposed project is
recommended by both the City's Bikeway Master Plan (adopted in January 2005)
and the Bayshore Bikeway Plan. It consists of installing approximately 5,450
centerline feet of Class II bike lane on Bay Boulevard within the existing paved
roadway between F Street and J Street. The total estimated cost of the project is
$138,575. The total applicationrequest for TDAlTransNet funds is $54,520. The
remaining $84,055 represents the cost of applying rubberized slurry seal to a
portion of Bay Blvd. and the application of striping and pavement legends not
related to the bike lane. This portion of the project will be included under STL-
316, Pavement Rehabilitation 06-07, which is included in the City's portion of
TransNet funding for local streets and roads.
3. Pedestrian Traffic Signal Upgrade TF-323 & TF-328: This project will be done
under the City's FY2006-07 Upgrade of Pedestrian Indications Program TF-323
5-3
1/23/07, Item~
Page 4 of 4
and FY2006-07 Audible Pedestrian Signal Modifications Program TF-328. The
proposed project consists of upgrading pedestrian crossing signal facilities at
twelve (12) intersections within the public right-of-way that directly serve schools
in western Chula Vista. The general scope of work is to upgrade existing
pedestrian indications to "countdown" indication, and to install audible pedestrian
signal crossings. The total cost of the project is $113,920. The total application
request for TDA/TransNet funds is $78,920. Contributions would be $10,000
from TF-323 and $25,000 from TF-328, both finance'd by the Traffic Signal Fund.
All work will take place in existing street right-of-way.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property
holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the properties which are the subject of this
action.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no impact to the General Fund. Potential revenue to the City from TransNet and
TDA would be $433,440. There are sufficient funds in STL-316, TF-323 and TF-328 to
provide the matching funds.

BICYCLE AND PEI)ESTRIAN CLAIM GUIDELINES
Introduction
The following describes the claim process for Transportation Del'elopment Act (TDA) bicycle and
pedestrian projects and TransNet bicycle projects.
Project Eligibility and the Regional Housing Needs Incentives Program
On April 28, 2006, the SANDAG Board of Directors adopted Board Policy No. 033 entitled:
Implementation Guidelines for SANDAG Regional Housing Needs Assessment Memorandum. This policy
sets forth guidelines for incentives related to the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) for the
2005-2010 housing element cycle, which was adopted by the SANDAG Board on February 25, 2005. As
part of the approval of the Final RHNA for the San Diego region, the Board agreed to grant certain
financial incentives to jurisdictions that provide a greater share of affordable housing now and in the
future.
Board Policy No. 033 identifies the funding programs that will be subject to the RHNA policy, the housing
element-related eligibility requirements for the funding programs affected by the policy, and how incentive
points will be allocated based on lower income housing production.
In order to be eligible for TDAlTransNet bicycle and pedestrian funds for the FY 2008 funding cycle, prior
to the application due date jurisdictions must:
1. have adopted a housing element that has been found in compliance with state law by the California
Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) (Section 2.4.2 of Policy No. 033);
2. have submitted information to SANDAG regarding the actual production of housing units in all four
income categories (very low, low, moderate, and above moderate) (Sections 2.4.3 and 2.4.3.1);
and
3. have (if applicable) provided informatiqn to SANDAG regarding progress toward complying with
any rezoning programs contained in its housing element that are required to meet the adequate
site identification requirements of state law (Sections 2.4.3 and 2.4.3.1).
TDA Project Eligibility
The law specifies that the money should be aillocated according to the regulations adopted by SANDAG
as the regional transportation planning agency. It also identifies certain categories of eligible projects.
These specific project types represent neither an exhaustive list, nor are they listed as priorities (Public
Utilities Code Sections 99233.3 and 99234). They are summarized below for reference. Project selection
criteria, established by SANDAG Board policy, are discussed later.
. Construction, including related engineering expenses, of bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
. Maintenance of bicycle trails provided they are closed to motorized traffic.
1
5-5
. Projects serving the needs of commuting bicyclists, including but not limited to, new paths serving
major transportation corridors, secure bicycle parking at employment centers, park-and-ride lots,
and transit centers where other funds are not available.
. A comprehensive bicycle and pedestrian facilities plan (no more than once every five years), with
an emphasis on bicycle projects Intended to primarily accommodate nonrecreationai bicycle trips.
. Up to 20 percent of the cost to restripe Class II bicycle lanes.
. Up to 5 percent of the amount available to a city or the county may be expended in conjunction with
other funds to support bicycle safety education programs, so long as the funds are not used to fully
fund the salary of anyone person.
TransNet Project Eligibility
TransNet bicycle funds may be expended for all purposes necessary and convenient to the design, right-
of-way acquisition, and construction of facilities intended for use by bicyclists. These funds also may be
used for programs that help to encourage the use of bicycles, such as secure parking facilities, bicycle
promotion programs, and safety programs. Pedestrian projects are not eiigible under the TransNet
program.
Certain costs at times associated with bicycle and pedestrian projects are not eligible when the benefit
provided is not the exclusive use of bicyclists or pedestrians. These instances are listed below.
Curb and gutter are part of the roadway drainage system. As such, newly instalied curb and gutter
cannot be considered an improvement exclusively for the benefit of the sidewalk or bike lane and
are not an eligible expense.
. Driveway ramps Installed across sidewalks are not for the benefit of pedestrians, and in fact,
degrade the pedestrian environment. Claimants may not include the cost of driveway ramps in
applications for sidewalk projects. However, the distance across the driveway may be included
when computing the per-square-foot cost of the sidewalk.
. Where roadway design standards require a roadway shoulder width at least as wide as would be
required for a standard bike lane, the cost of the shoulder construction will not be eligible.
Appropriate bikeway signage is eligible.
Under some circumstances, it may be necessary to remove and replace curb and gutter, driveway ramps,
drainage facilities and other existing improvements in order to construct a bikeway or sidewalk. In such
cases the cost of this work is most likely eligible, but ciaimants should carefully document why this is so in
the claim submittal.

SANDAG Claim Requirements
SANDAG has the authority to establish criteria applicable to analyzing and evaluating claims for non-
motorized transportation facilities (Public Utilities Code Section 99401). To be considered for funding, a
claim must be consistent with SANDAG's adopted non-motorized plans and meet the requirements for
community support and geometric design standards as described in Categories 1 and 2 of the Project
Selection Criteria. In addition, the following requirements must be met; if applicable:
. If the project abuts other jurisdictions, it must be shown on the adopted plans of the adjacent
jurisdictions, or a letter must be submitted from the abutting jurisdiction showing that cooperative
efforts are underway.
. Other sources of funding for cooperative projects must be identified. Please attach supporting
documentation that shows matching funds have been secured. Matching funds that have not been
secured will not be considered in the matching funds section of the project scoring matrix.
. Projects which are a required element of a larger capital improvement project are not eligible for
funding.
. No single agency may submit an application, or applications, that are greater than the total
availabie allocation for that fiscal year.
Application Process
Applications for TDA and TransNet non-motorized claims must be received by SANDAG by February 5,
2007. To be considered for funding, the Annual Grant Application must be fully completed. In addition,
please consider the following, if applicable:
.
All claims, including those supporting ed~cational or promotional programs and claims for planning
projects, must include a project budget, work program, and project schedule.
.
No later than April 3, 2007, include a certified copy of a resolution or minute order in which the
planning group, planning commission, or governing body of the claimant authorizes the claim.
.
Review Panel - A review panel of six to eight working group members will conduct a full preliminary
review of the project applications to id~ntify significant issues and request clarification from the
project appiicants if necessary. Participation on the review panel is open to any active working
group member. Applicants must submit rinultiple hard copies of their applications for distribution to
the review panel.
Completed applications to be available bnline - Applicants must submit their application In PDF
format as well as hard copy. Electronic ~ersion of the applications will be posted to the internet to
give any working group member the oppdrtunlty to review the applications.

Evaluation Process
The evaluation process for TDA bicycle and pedestrian projects and TransNet bicycle projects is
consistent with the way SANDAG evaluates and prioritizes other components of the transportation system
such as arterial, highway, and transit projects. Transportation project priorities are established in planning
documents like the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), MOBILITY,. 2030. Priorities also are used for
funding decisions that are programmed in the Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP). In
addition, the selection criteria supports the overall goals and objectives SANDAG has for improving the
regional transportation system and promoting smart growth in the region by giving priority to projects that
enhance the existing transportation network as a whole. The criteria to be used in the evaluation process
are specified in the Project Selection Criteria matrix.
Claimants for TDA bicycle and pedestrian projects and TransNet bicycle projects will be responsible for
accurately filling out the Annual Grant Application and the accompanying Project Selection Criteria matrix.
SANDAG will be responsible for performing the GIS Analysis in Category 6 and the Cost Benefit Analysis
in Category 11 of the Project Selection Criteria based on the process outlined below. SANDAG will
compile the results from the Grant Applications and produce a prioritized list of projects that will be
reviewed by the Bicycle-Pedestrian Working Group (BPWG). The committee will then recommend a final
priority list of projects to the SANDAG Transportation Committee, which will then be approved by the
SANDAG Board of Directors.
. Regional Housing Needs Incentive - Project eligibility and incentive points will be based on the
formula adopted in SANDAG Board of Directors adopted Board Poi icy No. 033 entitled:
Implementation Guidelines for SANDAG Regional Housing Needs Assessment Memorandum.
. The GIS Analysis will be based on the following five factors: total population, total employment,
population density, employment density, and number of activity centers. Using the project limits
provided by the claimant, SANDAG will perform the GIS Analysis using data for population and
employment forecasts for 2010. A buffer will be created around each project area. Pedestrian
projects will be given a half-mile buffer and bicycle projects will be given a one-mile buffer. The
buffered areas will be used along with the population and employment data to generate population
and employment densities. The number of Activity Centers, as identified by SANDAG's data
warehouse, will be identified and tallied. Each factor will be scored from 1 to 4 points, for a possible
total of 20 points for the GIS Analysis category. Projects will be scored in each category relative to
each other by taking the raw scores and distributing them from highest to lowest. The highest 25
percent will receive 4 points, the second highest quartile will receive 3 points, the third highest
quartile will receive 2 points, and the lowest quartile will receive 1 point.
. The Cost Benefit Analysis will be computed by taking the subtotal score from categories 1 through
8 on the Project Selection Criteria matrix and dividing that subtotal by the grant application amount.
Projects will be scored relative to each other by taking the raw scores and distributing them from
highest to lowest, with the project with the highest cost benefit ratio receiving 15 points and the
project with the lowest cost benefit ratio receiving 1 point.

Project Cost Estimates - On a separate sheet ~rovide an itemized cost estimate for all eligible expenses.
Be as accurate as possible to avoid future cosl overruns. Projects with cost overruns have three options
for moving the project forward depending on what percentage over the original grant amount the revised
project cost will be. Applicants may ask for a recommendation from the BPWG to amend original
allocation for up to five percent of the original cost estimate (up to the amount available in the reserve).
Projects that require more than five percent additional funding can resubmit the project in a subsequent
funding cycle with the adjusted project amount.. Lastly, the applicants can choose to complete the project
with their own funding.

project costs were identified and a description 01 the other sources of funds for the overall project.
In order to cover the existing striping, this project is being included in the City's on going
Pavement Rehabilitation Program STL-316. APproximately 5,450 centerline feet of Bay Boulevard
will receive a rubberized slurry seal that 'will cover existing striping providing an excellent
opportunity to stripe the road with the new bike lanes, symbols and legends. The Pavement
Rehabilitation Program would pay for approl<imately 4,200 centerline feet of slurry seal, and TDA
funds would pay for only 1,250 centerline feet of slurry seal. The pavement condition of this
portion of the roadway is too good to normally warrant rehabilitation, and we would only be
sealing it because of the bike lane project.
Briefly describe any other aspects of the projecUhat is relevant to its evaluation.

The proposed project is included in the City of Chula Vista Bikeway Master Plan adopted by the
City Council on January 25, 2005 per Council Resolution No. 2005-014. This segment would
expand the City's bicycle facilities northward and provide a safer and more consistent ride for
bicyclists. Class 2 lanes are currently in place on the southern portion of this road.
Bicvcle Master Plans, Pedestrian Master Plans, Education/Safety Proqrams and Bicvcle Parkinq
Bicycle Master Plans, Education/Safety Programs and Bicycle Parking' projects will each be considered in
a separate category. These types of projects are encouraged and will be evaluated by SANDAG staff.
Basic Guidelines
Bicycle Master Plans - Cities with population up to 75,000 will be eligible for a maximum of $75,000.
Cities with population greater than 75,000 will be eligible for a maximum of $150,000. Beginning with the
2008 project application cycle, all cities will need to have a SANDAG-approved Bicycle Plan to be eligible
for TDAlTransNet funds for individual projects.
Pedestrian Master Plans - An agency may submit an application for a pedestrian master plan no more
frequently than once every five years. Jurisdictions with a population over 150,000 may submit
applications for up to $150,000, and jurisdictions with a population under 150,000 may submit
applications up to $100,000. In either case, the amount of the application must be substantiated by
providing a scope of work and project budget to SANDAG.
Education/Safety Programs - An agency must submit a scope of work and a proposed schedule to be
evaluated by SANDAG staff.
Bicycle Parking - Projects that conform to SANDAG's Bicycle Parking Guidelines and have a projected
cost up to $50,000 will be eligible.

Chula Vista Bikeway Master Plan Update - 2005
9.3.3 East J Street between Paseo Ladera
and Paseo Ranchero (Segment 6)
This is a Class 3 section of East J Street which
is a Class 2 facility west of this location. Up-
grading this section to a Class 2 facility would
make this a more consistent facility.
9.3.4 Otay Lakes Road between East H
Street and Apache Drive (Segment 7)
This is a Class 3 section of Otay Lakes
Road adjacent to Southwestern College. It
is a Class 2 facility north and south of this
location. Upgrading this section to a Class 2
facility would make this more consistent with
the remainder of local roadway conditions
and better serve a potentially significant trip
destination.
9.3.5 Bay Boulevard between F Street and
J Street (Segment 8)
This is an undesignated section of Bay Bou-
levard which is otherwise designated as a
Class 2 facility. There is sufficient paving
width to fully stripe the roadway with a Class
2 bikeway facility.
9.3.6 Orange Avenue between Palomar
Street and Hilltop Drive (Segment 9)
Orange Avenue between Palomar Street and
Hilltop Drive accesses the South Chula Vista
Library. Orange Avenue/Olympic Parkway is
Class 2 throughout most of its length except
for this section (and Segment 14). Continuing
Class 21ane striping would give cyclists more
visibility on a more consistent facility.
9.3.7 Otay Lakes Road (northbound) be-
tween East H Street and Ridgeback Drive
(Segment 10)
Otay Lakes Road has Class 2 lanes along its
entire length except for the east side of this
section (and Segment 7 near Southwestern
College). Continuing Class 2 lane striping
would give cyclists more visibility on a more
consistent facility.
City Council Resolution 2005-014
9.3.8 Sandpiper Way between Marina Park-
way and G Street (Segment 11)
This existing Class 3 segment lies in the
midst of what is otherwise a Class 2 bikeway
facility. It will be part of the planned Bayshore
Bikeway route and falls within Port District
tidelands jurisdiction.
Continuing Class 2 lane striping would provide
cyclists a consistent facility through this popu- .
lar area. Implementation as a Class 2 may
rely on removing on-street parking, and this
is a distinct possibility since the Port District
is encouraging off-street parking as planned
redevelopment occurs in this area. This seg-
ment refiects the revised routing planned for
Marina Parkway by the Port District.
9.3.9 Main Street between Industrial Boule-
vard and Frontage Road west of Interstate
5 (Segment 12)
This segment would connect the proposed
Segment 5 on Industrial Boulevard to the Bay
Boulevard and the Bayshore Bikeway. Due to
existing curb widths, an interim Class 3 bike
route will be provided. Most of the northern
portion of this project lies within the City of San
Diego city limits, but provides connectivity to
Chula Vista.
Bay Boulevard: Completing Class 2/ane striping is recommended
