A LOCAL MATCH OF $200,000, ACCEPTING THE TERMS OF THE GRANT
AGREEMENT, AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ACCEPT

WITH SANDAG, IF SELECTED FOR GRANT AWARD
WHEREAS, the Legislature and Governor of the State of California have
provided funds for the Active Transportation Program ("ATP") under Senate Bill 99, Chapter
359, and Assembly Bill 101, Chapter 354; and
WHEREAS, the California Transportation Commission ("CTC") has statutory
authority for the administration of the ATP and established necessary procedures; and
WHEREAS, the CTC has required in its ATP Guidelines that Metropolitan
Planning Organizations ("MPOs") coordinate the competitive selection process to select projects
to receive a portion of the ATP funding; and
WHEREAS, the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), as the MPO
for the San Diego region, is conducting a competitive selection process for the Cycle 3
distribution of ATP funds in the San Diego region; and
WHEREAS, SANDAG is required to submit the proposed ranked list of Regional
ATP projects and funding recommendations to the CTC for final consideration; and
WHEREAS, SANDAG may offer a funding exchange with projects recommended
through the Regional ATP competitive selection process which would reduce the administrative
burden to local jurisdictions associated with federal funding requirements; and
WHEREAS, if a funding exchange is offered to City of National City, the Euclid
Avenue Bicycle and Pedestrian Enhancements Project (the "Project") would be removed from
the regional ATP ranking and funded through the TransNet Active Transportation Grant
Program ("ATGP"); and
WHEREAS, the SANDAG Regional ATP competitive selection process requires
applicants to submit a resolution from their governing body to be considered for TransNet
funding in the event a funding exchange is offered; and
WHEREAS, City of National City has submitted an application to receive ATP
funds for the Project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
National City that if SANDAG offers a funding exchange to City of National City for the Euclid
Avenue Bicycle and Pedestrian Enhancements Project, the City of National City will commit to
providing $200,000 in matching funds from sources other than the TransNet ATGP.
