TOPIC: Resolution to Carry Over Existing Funds to the 2023 Federal Transportation
Improvement Program
AGENDA TITLE
Resolution and Authorization to Carry Over Grant Funds to the 2023 Federal
Transportation Improvement Program as Required by Funding Agency
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Authorize the City Manager to submit selected projects to the Orange County
Transportation Authority for inclusion into the 2023 Federal Transportation
Improvement Program.
2. Adopt a Resolution certifying that the City has the resources to fund the projects
submitted for inclusion into the 2023-2028 Federal Transportation Improvement
Program, and confirm the City’s commitment to implement all projects submitted to
the program.
DISCUSSION
The recommended actions would authorize the City Manager to request that the Orange
County Transportation Authority (OCTA) carry over federally funded projects or projects
subject to a federally required action, including regionally significant projects, from the
current Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) to the 2023 FTIP. The
federal fund sources for those projects include Active Transportation Program (ATP);
Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation (HBRR); Congestion Mitigation and Air
Quality (CMAQ); and Demonstration (DEMO) grant funds.
The FTIP is the primary programming and implementation process for projects identified
in the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), administered by the Southern California
Association of Governments. The FTIP lists projects and identifies funding sources for
every regionally significant transportation project that receives federal or state funds. The
Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) requested that all agencies countywide
carry over all federally funded projects from the existing FTIP to the 2023 FTIP if project
completion occurs after 2021. The FTIP carry-over occurs every two years and marks the
adoption of the new cycle.

To maintain the eligibility of allocated federal funds, the City was required to adopt a
Resolution (Exhibit 1) listing projects to be included or amended in the FTIP and submit
to OCTA by November 30, 2021. However, OCTA has extended this deadline to the end
of the 2021 calendar year, to allow additional time to assess and finalize the projects to
be carried over. Ultimately, the City cannot receive California Transportation Commission
funding allocation approval for these projects without the requested Council-approved
Resolution.
Staff is requesting authorization to carry over the following projects to the 2023 FTIP:
