Comprehensive Transportation Funding Programs — 2018 Page 4 <br />Projects O and Project P — Call for Projects Programming <br />Recommendations <br />During the application review process, staff worked with local agencies to <br />address technical issues such as project corridor limits, eligible <br />equipment/upgrades, and unit cost items. <br />During this call, the state also released an SB 1 LPP call. In order to fully <br />maximize and leverage resources for Orange County, OCTA submitted an <br />SB 1 LPP grant application, which included all OCTA -led signal synchronization <br />projects that were identified during the call. These projects included the following <br />corridors: <br />• Katella Avenue/Villa Park Road/Santiago Canyon Road; <br />• Main Street; <br />• Los Alisos Boulevard; and <br />• Garden Grove Boulevard. <br />On May 16, 2018, the California Transportation Commission awarded <br />OCTA $6.85 million in SB 1 LPP grant funds for the projects identified above. <br />Based upon this award, staff has prepared final funding recommendations, which <br />are identified in Attachment B per the funding approach outlined in the CTFP <br />Guidelines. Although the Board only authorized $8 million for the 2018 RTSSP <br />call, staff's recommendation is to program $8.9 million. By programming an <br />additional $900,699 (primarily from past project savings) in M2 RTSSP funds, <br />OCTA is able to secure an additional $6.85 million in SB 1 LPP funds for <br />additional projects. Therefore, the final funding provided will be $15.7 million in <br />M2 Project P (RTSSP) and SB 1 funds combined. <br />Prosect 0 and Project P Recommendations Summary <br />The table below provides an overall summary of staffs funding <br />recommendations. These programming recommendations were reviewed <br />and approved by the Technical Steering Committee at their meeting on <br />March 14, 2018, and the TAC on April 25, 2018. <br />2018 CTFP Call for Projects RCP Summary <br />Note: SBI LPP funding for RTSSP Projects is $6.85 million not shown in table. <br />RCP <br />RTSSP <br />Total <br />Number of Applications <br />11 <br />6 <br />17 <br />Recommended for Approval <br />Amount Recommended for <br />$32,000,000 <br />$8,900,699 <br />$40,900,699 <br />Approval escalated <br />Note: SBI LPP funding for RTSSP Projects is $6.85 million not shown in table. <br />
