SUMMARY
In July 2009 the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) announced the award of
Fiscal Year 2008-09 TranspOliation Development Act grants to municipalities. The City of Chula
Vista was awarded $ 116,220 for the Sidewalk Safety Program (I Street) and $150,000 for the
Bicycle Master Plan Update. In order to receive these fLmds, the City must execute an agreement
with SANDAG. This resolution will authorize the execution of the agreement tor the Bikeway
Master Plan funding.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The EnvirolIDlental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with
the California Environmental Quality Act (['EQA) and has deternlined that the proposed action
qualifies for a Class 6 categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15306 (Infomlation Collection)
of the State CEQA Guidelines because the grant monies would be used to pay a consultant to
complete a Bikeway Master Plan study. Once the actual project(s) are adequately defined on the
basis of the recommendations of the Bikeway Master Plan, then the appropriate environmental
review and documentation will be required. Thus, no further environmental review is necessary
at this time.

DISCUSSION
The California Transportation Development Act (TDA) became effective on July I, 1972 and
was enacted to assist local jurisdictions at the county level to improve public transit and non-
motorized transportation projects. The act created a Local Transportation Fund in each county
into which is deposi\ed Y4 percent out of the 8 Y, percent state sales tax created in each county.
Each year, SANDAG is responsible for the allocation of TDA funds in confornlance with
legislative and regional priorities in San Diego County. Two percent of regional TDA funds are
apportioned each year for facilities provided for the exclusive use of pedestnans and bicyclists.
On April 8, 2009 the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) announced a "Call for
Projects" to all interested and eligible cities interested in applying for TDA and Transnet bicycle
and pedestrian funding for Fiscal Year 2009-10. The submittal deadline was May 6, 2009. On
April 28, 2009 Council adopted Resolution No. 2009-096 (Attachment 1) approving the
submittal of grant applications for the Bikeway Master Plan Update ($150,000) and I Street
Sidewalk Improvements ($116,220).
The City's previous Bikeway Master Plan was completed and approved by Council on January
18,2005 by Resolution No. 2005-014 (Attachment 2). This plan analyzed the City's population,
land use, circulation system, public transit and safety issues. It recommended 18 high priority
capital improvement projects. As shown on the attached table (Attachment 3), seven of these
projects have been completed, four of these projects are in progress and an interim facility has
been installed III one location. The existing plan therefore needs to' be upgraded to reflect the
work done since the previous report and any changes in traffic patterns and land uses.
Additionally, certain grant funding sources require that cities applying for funding have a
Bikeway Master Plan prepared within the last five years. Since the report was finalized in
January 2005, the City would become ineligible for certain bikeway grant funding in 2011.
Since there was no call for projects for TDA/ Transnet bicycle and pedestrian funding for Fiscal
Year 2008-09, staff pursued funding in the current fiscal year.
The Agreemenf
In June 2009, SANDAG staff informed City staff that the Bikeway Master Plan update and the I
Street sidewalk project would receive TDA funding. Funding for the proposed list of projects
(Attachment 4) was approved by the SANDAG Board of Directors on June 26,2009. In the past,
auoption of funding by the Board served as a Notice to Proceed. Staff was verbally told that
agencies receiving TDA funds would be required to sign an agreement to be prepared by
SANDAG, but City staff did not receive a copy of the proposeu agreement until January 28,
2010. Additionally, it was not clear that the City should delay commencement of work on the
3-2
8/10/10, Item_
Page 3 of 4
project until the agreement had been executed. Consequently, the City awarded a contract to
KTU+A on November 3, 2009 per Resolution No. 2009-259 for development of the Bikeway
Master Plan update (Attachment 5).
The Grant Agreement is between the San Diego Association of Governments and the City ofChula
Vista and is blllding on both parties. Provisions of the agreement include the following:
. At the request of the City, the effective date of the agreement was changed to September I,
2009. This was intended to allow the City to be reimbursed for contract costs incurred
bcfore execution of the agreement, as discussed in the SA.t\'OAG memo dated May 10,2010
(Attachment G).
. Reimbursed project costs must have been inculTed for work performed after the Effective
Date of the Agreement.
. The Grantee must provide SANDAG with monthly project reports.
. The Grantee must comply with the "Use It or Lose It" Policy, Attachment B to the
agreement. This policy specifies that construction grants be awarded within two years
following execution of the grant agreement, and construction must be completed within 18
months following award of the construction contract. It also establishes conditions for
receivlllg extensions on project schedules.
. Attachment C establishes Project Implementation and Oversight Requirements. For
Planning Grants, this includes providing SA.1"IT)AG with the draft Request for Proposals and
proposals received for the review of SANDAG staff. Since this contract has already been
rewardcd, this requirement IS not relevant in this case. Jt also requires the grantee to submit
Quarterly Progress Reports, including the status of the budget and schedule.

The Citv's contract with KTU+A is currently in progress. An initial meeting was held to discuss the
. .
project schedule in February. SA.1'\JDAG staff has stated that the CIty can pay invoices from
KTU+A for work done on this project, but the City cannot be reimbursed lor these costs until the
attached agreement is approved and adopted.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has detemlined that it is not site
speci fic and consequently the 500 foot rule found in California Code of Regulations Section
I 8704.2(a)(1 ) is not applicable to this action.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
There are no impacts to the General Fund for this action. The TDA grant of S 150,000 and
additional Transnet funds of $50,000 to pay for staff costs were included in the Fiscal Year
2009-10 Capita!, Improvement Budget under Project No. STL-351.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
In future fiscal years, there may be an indirect fiscal impact, as certain projects and/or actions
recommended by the Bikeway Master Plan are constructed and/or implemented. Any future
projects that would have any fiscal impact would be approved by separate Council actions.

APPROVING THE SUBMITTAL OF A GRA.J"IT APPLICATION
FOR THE BIKEWAY MASTER PLAN UPDATE TO THE SAN
DIEGO ASSOCIATION OF GOVERt"lMENTS FOR FISCAL
YEAR 2009/2010 TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT ACT
AND TRANSNET FUNDING FOR BICYCLE AND
PEDESTRIAN PROJECTS
WHEREAS, the State Transportation Development Act (TDA) and TransNet programs
generally provide funding for bicycle and pedestrian facilities through a competitive grant
process on an annual basis. The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) issued a
call for projects on April 8,2009 for funding during fiscal year 2009/201 0; and
WHEREAS, funds are provided on a non-competitive basis for the preparation of a
Bikeway Master Plan every five years. An updated plan is required to obtain certain regional
and State funding for bicycle facilities. Since the City's current Bikeway Master Plan was
completed in January 2005, the City is eligible to apply for funding of $]50,000 to update this
plan; and
WHEREAS, the I Street Sidewalk Improvement project will complete the mlssmg
pedestrian improvements on the north side of I Street between Hilltop Drive and First Avenue,
which is within 'I.-mile of Hilltop Drive Elementary School. This project is estimated to cost
$232,440 with a requested grant amount of$] 16,220; and
WHEREAS, there is sufficient TransNet funding in sidewalk installation CIP .projects
STL336 and STL347 to provide the $116,220 in matching funds ror the I Street Sidewalk
Improvements project; and
\VHEREAS, since the current action seeks only to approve the submittal of a grant
application, this action is not subject to CEQA pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State
CEQA guidelines. Should grant funding be procured, additional environmental review will
subsequently be conducted and the appropriate environmentaJ determination will be made.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Chula
Vista does hereby approve the submittal of a grant application and certifies matching funds for
the I Street SidewaJk Improvements and approves the submittal of a grant application for the
Bikeway Master Plan Update to the San' Diego Association of Governments for fiscal year
2009/2010 Transportation Development Act and TransNet funding for Bicycle and Pedestrian
projects.

SUBJECT:
Request for Chula Vista' Bikeway Master Plan Grant Agreement
(Contract #5001216" Bicyc1e1Pedestrian, Neighborhood Safety Grant Program)
The purpose of this memo is to request that the Chula Vista Bikeway Master Plan grant agreement
with the City of Chula Vista be made retroactive to September 1, 2009 with the recipient agreeing to
complete the project by December 31, 2010, Julia Coleman has advised that it would be acceptable
to make this contract retroactive, wrth your approval. '
At the July 15, 2009 BicycleiPedestrian Working Group meeting, I announced that those staff whose
cities were awarded TDA/TransNet grant fun'ding for FY10 would be required to submit a detailed
scope of work, budget, and schedule to me, for inclusion in their grant agreements. I also
announced that any work begun prior to execution of the grant agreement would not be eligible
for reimbursement, nor could it count toward matching funds for the purpose of the agreement..
This procedure is significantly different than 'that of previous TDA funding rounds, for which there
was no grant agreement, and reimbursement was not handled on a quarterly invoice basis. This
may have been a source of misunderstanding for project managers of these grants.
A grant agreement has not yet been executed with the City of Chula Vista for the above referenced
grant. The City of Chula Vista began work on this grant in September, 2009 and would like to be
reimbursed for that work. With your approval, the grant agreement can be dated retroactive to
September 1, 2009, to allow for reimbursement for work completed prior to grant agreement
execution~'

paragraph F of this Agreement regarding amendments to the Scope of Work.
B.
Significant Participation by a Subgrantee. Although the Grantee may delegate any or almost

I
I
I
,
1. Entities Affected. If an entity other than the Grantee is expected to fulfill any
responsibilities typically performed by the Grantee, the Grantee agrees to assure that the
entity carries out the Grantee's responsibilities as set forth in this Agreement.
2. Documents Affected. The applicability provisions of laws, regulations, and policies
determine the extent to which those provisions affect an entity (such as a subgrantee)
participating in the Project through the Grantee. Thus, the Grantee agrees to use a
written document to ensure that each entity participating in the Project complies with
applicable laws, regulations, and policies.
a. Required Clauses. The Grantee agrees to use a written document (such as a
subagreement, lease, third,party contract, or other) including all appropriate
clauses stating the entity's responsibilities under applicable laws, regulations, or
policies.
b. Flowdown. The Grantee agrees to include in each document (subagreement,
lease, third,party contract, or other) any necessary provisions requiring the
Project participant (third-party contractor, subgrantee, or other) to impose
applicable laws, Agreement requirements, and directives on its subgrantees,

City of Chula Vista
Grant No: 5001216
lessees, third-party contractors, and other Project participants at the lowest tier
necessary .
D. No SANDAG Obligations to Third Parties. In connection with the Project, the Grantee agrees
that SANDAG shall not be subject to any obligations or liabilities to any subgrantee, lessee, third-
party contractor, or other person or entity that is not a party to the Agreement for the Project.
Notwithstanding that SANDAG may have concurred in or approved any solicitation,
subagreement, lease, or third-party contract at any tier, SANDAG has no obligations or liabilities
to any entity other than the Grantee, including any subgrantee, lessee, or third-party contractor at
any tier
E. Changes in Project Performance. The Grantee agrees to notify SANDAG immediately, in
writing, of any change in local law, conditions (including its legal, financial, or technical capacity),
or any other event that may adversely affect the Grantee's ability to perform the Project in
accordance with the terms of the Agreement. The Grantee also agrees to notify SANDAG
immediately, in writing, of any current or prospective major dispute, breach, default, or litigation
that may adversely affect SANDAG's interests in the Project; and agrees to.inform SANDAG, also
in writing, before naming SANDAG as a party to litigation for any reason, in any forum. At a

SANDAG's Office of General Counsel. Grantee further agrees to utilize the procedures set forth
in the Use It or Lose It Policy attached hereto as Attachment B if it anticipates a delay in
performance.
F. Standard of Care. The Grantee expressly warrants that the work to be performed pursuant to
this Agreement shall be performed in accordance with the applicable standard of care. Where
approval by SANDAG, the Executive Director, or other representative of SANDAG is indicated in
the Scope of Work, it is understood to be conceptual approval only and does not relieve the
Grantee of responsibility for complying with all laws, codes, industry standards, and liability for
damages caused by negligent acts, errors, omissions, noncompliance with industry standards, or
the willful misconduct of the Grantee or its subgrantees.
Section 3. Ethics
A. Grantee Code of Conduct/Standards of Conduct. The Grantee agrees to maintain a written
code of conduct or standards of conduct that shall govern the actions of its officers, employees,
councilor board members, or agents engaged in the award or administration of subagreements,
leases, or third-party contracts supported with TransNel Ordinance assistance. The Grantee
agrees that its code of conduct or standards of conduct shall specify that its officers, employees,
board members, or agents may neither solicit nor accept gratuities, favors, or anything of
monetary value from any present or potential subgrantee, lessee, or third-party contractor at any
tier or agent thereof. Such a conflict would arise when an employee, officer, council or board
member, or agent, including any member of his or her immediate family, partner, or organization
that employs, or intends to employ, any of the parties listed herein has a financial interest in the
entity selected for award. The Grantee may set de minimis rules where the financial interest is not
substantial, or' the gift is an unsolicited item of nominal intrinsic value. The Grantee agrees that its
code of conduct or standards of conduct shall also prohibit its officers, employees, board
members, or agents from using their respective positions in a manner that presents a real or
5
3-22
City of Chula Vista
Grant No.: 5001216
apparent personal or organizational conflict of interest or personal gain. As permitted by state or
local law or regulations, the Grantee agrees that its code of conduct or standards of conduct shall
include penalties, sanctions, or other disciplinary actions for violations by its officers, employees,
board members, or their agents, or its third-party contractors or subgrantees or their agents.
1.
Personal Conflicts of Interest. The Grantee agrees that its code of conduct or
standards of conduct shall prohibit the Grantee's employees, officers, councilor board
members, or agents from participating in the selection, award, or administration of any
third-party contract or subagreement supported by BPNSP Funding if a real or apparent
conflict of interest would be involved. Such a conflict would arise when an employee,
officer, board member, or agent, including any member of his or her immediate family,
partner, or organization that employs, or intends to employ, any of the parties listed
herein has a financial interest in the firm selected for award.

,
2.
Organizational Conflicts of Interest. The Grantee agrees that its code of conduct or
standards of conduct shall include procedures for identifying and preventing real and
apparent organizational conflicts of interest. An organizational conflict of interest exists
when the nature of the work to be performed under a proposed third-party contract or
subagreement may, without some restrictions on future activities, result in an unfair
competitive advantage to the third-party contractor or subgrantee or impair its objectivity
in performing the contract work.
B. SANDAG Code of Conduct. SANDAG has established policies concerning potential conflicts of
interest. These policies apply to Grantee. For all awards by SANDAG, any practices which might
result in unlawful activity are prohibited including, but not limited to, rebates, kickbacks, or other
unlawful considerations. SANDAG staff are specifically prohibited from participating in the
selection process when those staff have a close personal relationship, family relationship, or past
(within the last 12 months), present, or potential business or employment relationship with a
person or business entity seeking a contract. It is unlawful for any contract to be made by
SANDAG if any individual board member or staff has a prohibited financial interest in the contract.
Staff are also prohibited from soliciting or accepting gratuities from any organization seeking
funding from SANDAG. SANDAG's officers, employees, agents, and board members shall not
solicit or accept gifts, gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value from consultants, potential
consultants, or parties to subagreements. By signing this Agreement, Grantee affirms that it has
no knowledge of an ethical violation by SANDAG staff or Grantee. If Grantee has any reason to
believe a conflict of interest exists with regard to the Agreement or the Project, it should notify the
SANDAG Office of General Counsel immediately.
C. Bonus or Commission. The Grantee affirms that it has not paid, and agrees not to pay, any
bonus or commission to obtain approval of its BPNSP Funding application for the Project.
D. False or Fraudulent Statements or Claims. The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that by
executing the Agreement for the Project, the Grantee certifies or affirms the truthfulness and
accuracy of each statement it has made, it makes, or it may make in connection with the Project.

Grant No.: 5001216
Section 4. Approved Project Budget
Except to the extent that SANDAG determines otherwise in writing, the Grantee agrees as follows: The
Grantee and SANDAG have agreed to a Project budget that is designated the "Approved Project Budget."
The Grantee will incur obligations and make disbursements of Project funds only as authorized by the
Approved Project Budget. An amendment to the Approved Project Budget requires the issuance of a
formal amendment to the Agreement, except that re-allocation of funds among budget items or fiscal
years that does not increase the total amount of the BPNSP Funding awarded for the Project may be
made consistent with applicable laws, regulations, and policies. Prior SANDAG approval is required for
transfers of funds between Approved Project Budget categories; approval will not be unreasonably
withheld.
Section 5. Payments
A. Funding Commitment. The Grantee agrees that SANDAG's maximum commitment for Project
Costs will not exceed the Maximum SANDAG Contribution of $150,000. SANDAG's responsibility
to make, or, for TDA-funded projects, to authorize the County of San Diego to make payments
under this Agreement is limited to the amounts listed in the Approved Project Budget for the
Project. Within thirty (30) days of notification to the Grantee that specific amounts are owed to
SANDAG, whether for excess payments of BPNSP Funding, failure to comply with the Use It or
Lose It Policy (Attachment B), disallowed costs, or funds recovered from third parties or
elsewhere, the Grantee agrees to remit the owed amounts to SANDAG, including applicable
interest, penalties, and administrative charges.
B. Payment by SANDAG. On a quarterly basis, SANDAG shall pay, or, for TDA-funded projects,
authorize the County of San Diego to pay, Grantee following receipt and approval of both 1) an
invoice accompanied by documentation of expenses, including the matching funds portion, if
applicable, incurred on the Project, and 2) a quarterly report describing progress toward
completion on tasks outlined in the Scope of Work. Sample Invoice and Quarterly Report forms
are attached hereto as Attachment D. Upon receiving a request for payment and adequate
supporting information, SANDAG will make payment, or, for TDA-funded projects: authorize the
County of San Diego to make payment, for eligible amounts to Grantee within thirty (30) days if
Grantee has complied with the requirements of the Agreement, including quarterly reporting
requirements, has satisfied SANDAG that the BPNSP Funding requested is needed for Project
purposes in that requisition period, and is making adequate progress toward Project completion.
After the Grantee has demonstrated satisfactory compliance with the preceding requirements,
SANDAG will reimburse the Grantee's apparent allowable costs incurred consistent with the
Approved Project Budget for the Project. For TDA-funded Projects, Grantee is advised that the
County of San Diego makes payments on the 20th day of each month, or the following business
day. SANDAG shall retain ten percent (10%) from the amounts invoiced until satisfactory
completion of work. SANDAG shall promptly pay retention amounts to Grantee following
Grantee's satisfactory completion of work, receipt of Grantee's final invoice, and all required
documentation.
C. Costs Reimbursed. The Grantee agrees that Project costs eligible for BPNSP Funding must
comply with all the following requirements. Except to the extent that SANDAG determines
otherwise, in writing, to be eligible for reimbursement, Project costs must be:

City of Chula Vista
Grant No.: 5001216
1. Consistent with the Project Scope of Work, the Approved Project Budget, and other
provisions of the Agreement,
2. Necessary in order to accomplish the Project,
3. Reasonable for the goods or services purchased,
4. Actual net costs to the Grantee (i.e., the price paid minus any refunds, rebates, or other
items of value received by the Grantee that have the effect of reducing the cost actually
incurred, excluding program income),
5. Incurred for work performed after the Effective Date of the Agreement, and as of the
effective date of the Notice to Proceed.
6. Satisfactorily documented,
7. Treated consistently in accordance with accounting principles and procedures approved
by SANDAG for the Grantee (see Section 6 Accounting Records), and with accounting
principles and procedures approved by the Grantee for its third-party contractors and
subgrantees, and
8. Eligible for BPNSP Funding as part of the BPNSP.
9. Expended allowable indirect costs, including overhead, only if the Grantee has an
approved indirect cost allocation plan and prior written approval has been obtained from
SANDAG.
D. TDA Project Eligibility. The law specifies that the money should be allocated 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.
. Construction, including related engineering expenses, of bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
Maintenance of bicycle trails provided they are closed to motorized traffic.
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.
ri: comprehensive bicycle and pedestrian facilities plan (no more than once every five [5]
years), with an emphasis on bicycle projects intended to primarily accommodate non-
recreational bicycle trips.
Up to 20 percent (20%) of the cost to re-stripe Class II bicycle lanes.
8
3-25
City of Chula Vista
Grant No.: 5001216
. Up to 5 percent (5%) 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.
E. 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, pedestrian, and neighborhood safety programs. These funds also
may be used for programs that help to encourage the use of bicycles/pedestrians, such as secure
parking facilities, bicycle/pedestrian promotion programs, and safety programs.
F. Excluded Costs. In determining the amount of BPNSP Funding SANDAG will provide for the
Project, SANDAG will exclude:
1. Any Project cost incurred by the Grantee before the Effective Date of the Agreement or
Amendment thereto,
2. Any cost that is not included in the latest Approved Project Budget,
3. Any cost for Project property or services received in connection with a subagreement,
lease, third-party contract, or other arrangement that is required to be, but has not been,
concurred in or approved in writing by SANDAG,
4. Any cost ineligible for SANDAG participation as provided by applicable laws, regulations,
or policies.
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.
5. Curb and gutter are part of the roadway drainage system. As such, newly installed curb
and gutter cannot be considered an improvement exclusively for the benefit of the
sidewalk or bike lane and are not an eligible expense.
6. 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.
7. 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 claimants should carefully
document why this is so in the claim submittal.
9
3-26
City of Chula Vista
Grant No.. 5001216
The Grantee understands and agrees that payment to the Grantee for any Project cost does not
constitute SANDAG's final decision about whether that cost is allowable and eligible for payment
under the Project and does not constitute a waiver of any violation by the Grantee of the terms of
the Agreement for the Project. The Grantee acknowledges that SANDAG will not make a final
determination about the allowability and eligibility of any cost until the final payment has been
made on the Project or the results of an audit of the Project requested by SANDAG or its
Independent Taxpayers' Oversight Committee (ITOC) has been completed, whichever occurs
latest. If SANDAG determines that the Grantee is not entitled to receive any portion of the BPNSP
Funding requested or paid, SANDAG will notify the Grantee in writing, stating its reasons. The
Grantee agrees that Project closeout will not alter the Grantee's responsibility to return any funds
due SANDAG as a result of later refunds, corrections, or other similar transactions; nor will
Project closeout alter SANDAG's right to disallow costs and recover funds provided for the Project
on the basis of a later audit or other review
Section 6. Accounting Records
In compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and policies, the Grantee agrees as follows:
A. Project Accounts. The Grantee agrees to establish and maintain for the Project either a
separate set of accounts or separate accounts within the framework of an established accounting
system that can be identified with the Project. The Grantee also agrees to maintain all checks,
payrolls, invoices, contracts, vouchers, orders, or other accounting documents related, in whole
or in part, to the Project so that they may be clearly identified, readily accessible, and available to
SANDAG upon request and, to the extent feasible, kept separate from documents not related to
the Project.
B. Documentation of Project Costs and Program Income. Except to the extent that SANDAG
determines otherwise, in writing, the Grantee agrees to support all costs charged to the Project,
including any approved services or property contributed by the Grantee or others, with properly
executed payrolls, time records, invoices, contracts, or vouchers describing in detail the nature
and propriety of the charges, including adequate records to support the costs the Grantee has
incurred underlying any payment in which SANDAG has agreed to participate.
Section 7. Reporting, Record Retention, and Access
A. Types of Reports. The Grantee agrees to submit to SANDAG all reports required by laws and
regulations, poiicies, the Agreement, and any other reports SANDAG may specify.
B. Report Formats. The Grantee agrees that all reports and other documents or information
intended for public availability developed in the course of the Project and required to be submitted
to SANDAG must be prepared and submitted in electronic and or typewritten hard copy formats
as SANDAG may specify. SANDAG reserves the right to specify that records be submitted in
particular formats.

City of Chula Vista
Grant No.: 5001216
C. Record Retention. During the course of the Project and for three (3) years thereafter from the
date of transmission of the final expenditure report, the Grantee agrees to maintain, intact and
readily accessible, all data, documents, reports, records, contracts, and supporting materials
relating to the Project as SANDAG may require.
D. Access to Records of Grantees and Subgrantees. The Grantee agrees to permit, and require
its subgrantees to permit, SANDAG or its authorized representatives, upon request, to inspect all
Project work, materials, payrolls, and other data, and to audit the books, records, and accounts of
the Grantee and its subgrantees pertaining to the Project.
E. Project Closeout. The Grantee agrees that Project closeout does not alter the reporting and
record retention requirements of this Agreement.
F. Quarterly Reports. It shall be the responsibility of Grantee to advise SANDAG on a quarterly
basis of the progress of its work, expenditures incurred, and information regarding whether the
Project is projected to be completed within the limits of the Approved Project Budget and Project

by SANDAG, the Grantee agrees to submit a final certification of Project expenses and final
reports, as applicable.
B. Project Closeout. Project closeout occurs when SANDAG notifies the Grantee that SANDAG
has closed the Project, and either forwards the final BPNSP Funding payment or acknowledges
that the Grantee has remitted the proper refund. The Grantee agrees that Project closeout by
SANDAG does not invalidate any continuing requirements imposed by the Agreement or any
unmet requirements set forth in a written notification from SANDAG. All payments made to the
Grantee shall be subject to review for compliance by SANDAG with the requirements of this
Agreement, and shall be subject to an audit upon completion of the Project. If Grantee uses

application regarding the Project's intended use. If the Project is a capital project, Grantee hereby

Section 9. Timely Progress and Right of SANDAG to Terminate
A. Grantee shall make diligent and timely progress toward completion of the Project within the
timelines set forth in the Project Schedule (Attachment A). If timely progress is not achieved,
SANDAG may review the status of the Project to determine if the funds should be reallocated to
another eligible project, as per the Use It or Lose It Policy (Attachment B). Grantee understands
and agrees that any failure to .make reasonable progress on the Project or violation of the
Agreement that endangers substantial performance of the Project shall provide sufficient grounds
for SANDAG to terminate the Agreement for the Project.
B. In the event Grantee encounters difficulty in meeting the Project Schedule or anticipates difficulty
in complying with the Project Schedule, the Grantee shall immediately notify the SANDAG Project
Manager and shall provide pertinent details, including the reason(s) for the delay in performance
and the date by which Grantee expects to complete performance or delivery. This notification
shall be informational in character only and receipt of it shall not be construed as a waiver by
SANDAG of a project delivery schedule or date, or any rights or remedies provided by this
Agreement, including the Use It or Lose It Policy requirements.
C. Upon written notice, the Grantee agrees that SANDAG may suspend or terminate all or any part
of the BPNSP Funding to be provided for the Project if the Grantee has violated the terms of the
Agreement, or if SANDAG determines that the purposes of the laws or policies authorizing the
Project would not be adequately served by the continuation of BPNSP Funding for the Project.
D. In general, termination of BPNSP Funding for the Project will not invalidate obligations properly
incurred by the Grantee before the termination date to the extent those obligations cannot be
canceled. If, however, SANDAG determines that the Grantee has willfully misused BPNSP
Funding by failing to make adequate progress, or failing to comply with the terms of the
Agreement, SANDAG reserves the right to require the Grantee to refund the entire amount of
BPNSP Funding provided for the Project or any lesser amount as SANDAG may determine.
E. Expiration of any Project time period established in the Project Schedule will not, by itself,
automatically constitute an expiration or temnination of the Agreement for the Project, however,
Grantee must request and SANDAG must agree to amend the Agreement, in writing, if the
Project Schedule wiU not be met. An amendment to the Project Schedule may be made at
SANDAG's discretion if Grantee's request is consistent with the provisions of the Use It or Lose It
Policy (Attachment B).
F The grant was awarded based on the application submitted by Grantee with the intention that the
awarded funds would be used to implement the Project as described in the Scope of Work
(Attachment A). Any substantive deviation from the Scope of Work must be approved by
SANDAG if grant funds are to be used for such changes. If Grantee believes substantive changes
need to be made to the Project, Grantee will immediately notify SANDAG. SANDAG will then
determine whether the Project is still consistent with the overall objectives of the BPNSP and that
the changes would not have negatively affected the Project ranking during the grant application
process. SANDAG reserves the right to have BPNSP Funding withheld or refunded due to
substantive Project changes.

USE-IT-OR-LOSE-IT POLICY
1. Project Milestone and Completion Deadlines
1.1. This policy applies to all Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Neighborhood Safety Program grant funds,
whether from TransNet or another source. By signing a grant agreement for the Bicycle,
Pedestrian, and Neighborhood Safety Program, grant recipients agree to the following project
delivery objectives.
1 1.1. Capital Grants. The project must be completed according to the schedule provided in
the grant agreement, but at the latest, a construction contract must be awarded within
two (2) years following execution of the grant agreement, and construction must be
completed within eighteen (18) months following award of the construction contract.
1.1.2. Planning Grants. The project must be completed according to the schedule provided in
the grant agreement, but at the latest, a consultant contract must be awarded within
one (1 )-year following execution of the grant agreement, and the planning project must
be complete within two (2) years following award of the consultant contract. Failure to
meet the above deadlines may result in revocation of all grant funds not already
expended.
1.2. Grant funds made available as a result of this process may be awarded to the next project on
the recommended project priority list from the most recent project selection process, or they
may be added to the funds available for the next project funding cycle, at SANDAG's discretion.
Any project that loses funding due to failure to meet the deadlines specified in this policy may
be resubmitted to compete for funding in a future call for projects.
2. Project Delays and Extensions of up to One (1)-Year
2.1. Grant recipients may receive extensions on their project schedules of up to one (1 )-year for
good cause. Extensions of up to twelve (12) months aggregate that would not cause the project
to miss a deadline in Sections 1 1 1 or 1.1.2 may be approved by the SANDAG Program
Manager for the Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Neighborhood Safety Program. Extensions beyond
twelve (12) months aggregate or that would cause the project to miss a deadline in Sections
1.1.1 or 1 1.2 must be approved by the RPC. For an extension to be granted under this Section
2, the following conditions must be met:
2.1.1 For extension requests of up to six (6) months, the grant recipient must request the
extension in wrITing to the SANDAG Program Manager at least two (2) weeks prior to
the earliest project schedule milestone deadline for which an extension is being
requested.
18
3-35
City of Chula Vista Grant No.. 5001216
2.1.2. For extension requests that will cause one (1) or more project milestones to be delayed
more than six (6) months, but less than twelve (12) months aggregate, the grant
recipient must request an extension in writing to the SANDAG Program Manager at
least six (6) weeks prior to the earliest project schedule milestone deadline for which an
extension is being requested.
2.1.3. The project sponsor seeking the extension must document previous efforts undertaken
to maintain the project schedule, the reasons for the delay, and why they were
unavoidable, and demonstrate an ability to succeed in the extended timeframe.
2.1.4. If the Program Manager denies an extension request under this Section 2, the project
sponsor may appeal within ten (10) business days of receiving the Program Manager's
response to the RPC.
2.1.5. Extension requests that are rejected by the RPC will result in termination of the grant
agreement and obligation by the project sponsor to return to SANDAG any unexpended
funds. Unexpended funds are funds for project costs not incurred prior to rejection of
the extension request by the RPC
3. Project and Extensions Beyond One (1 )-Year
3.1. Requests for extensions beyond one (1 )-year or that will cause a project to miss a deadline in
Sections 1.1.1 or 1 1.2 (including those projects that were already granted extensions by the
SANDAG Program Manager and are again falling behind schedule) will be considered by the
RPC. The RPC will only grant an extension under this Section 3 for extenuating conditions
beyond the control of the project sponsor, defined as follows:
3.1.1. Capital Grants
3.1.1.1. Environmental. An extension may be granted when, during the environmental review
process, the project sponsor discovers heretofore unknown sites (e.g., archeological,
endangered species) that require additional investigation and mitigation efforts. The
project sponsor must demonstrate that the discovery is new and unforeseen.
3.1.1.2. Right-of-Way. Extensions for delays necessary to complete right-of-way acquisition
may be granted only when right-of-way needs are identified that could not have been
foreseen at the time the grant agreement was signed.
3.1.1.3. Permitting. Delays associated with obtaining permits from external agencies may
justify an extension when the project sponsor can demonstrate that every effort has
been made to obtain the necessary permits and that the delay is wholly due to the
permitting agency.
3.1.1.4 Construction Schedule. Extensions may be granted when unavoidable construction
delays create a conflict with restrictions on construction during certain times of the
year (for instance, to avoid nesting season for endangered species).
19
3-36
City of Chula Vista Grant No.. 5001216
3.1 1.5. Litigation. Extensions may be granted when a lawsuit has been filed concerning the
project being funded.
3.1.1.6 Other. Extensions may be granted due to changes in federal/state policies or laws
that can be shown to directly affect the project schedule.
3.1.2. Planning Grants
3 1.2.1 Changed Circumstances. An extension may be granted for a planning project when
circumstances not within the control of the grant recipient, such as an action by an
outside agency, require a change in the Scope of Work for the project.
3.2. The grant recipient shall make its request directly to the RPC, providing a detailed justification
for the requested extension, including a revised project schedule and work plan, at least six (6)
weeks prior to the earliest project schedule milestone deadline, or deadline in Sections 1.1.1 or
1.1.2, for which an extension is being requested.
3.3. Extension requests that are rejected by the RPC will result in termination of the grant
agreement and obligation by the project sponsor to return to SANDAG any unexpended funds.

request.
