COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT ITEM NUMBER:
FROM: Ken Hampian, Assistant City Administrative Officer
Prepared by: Harry Watson, Transit Manager G
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution Authorizing the Application for a Proposition 116 Grant
Allocation
CAO RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a resolution reauthorizing staff to apply for a
$500,000 Proposition 116 grant allocation to purchase two transit coaches, and rescind
Resolution No. 8038 (1992 Series).
DISCUSSION:
In reviewing the City of San Luis Obispo's grant application, Caltrans staff has requested
minor changes in Resolution No. 8038 (1992 Series), adopted by Council on July 21,
1992, which authorized a Proposition 116 grant application for two transit coaches. The
requested change adds the following two clauses:
"WHEREAS, Policy 19 of the CTC Proposition 116 Non-Urban County Program
Policy Guidelines allows San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (SLOCOG), subject to
CTC approval to transfer its applicant status to another public agency that accepts the
rights and responsibilities to implement and deliver the project; and
WHEREAS, SLOCOG by resolution, has recommended that the City of San Luis
Obispo be approved as the eligible applicant;"
I
In addition, the new resolution resolves that "the City Council of the City of San Luis
Obispo accepts from SLOCOG the transfer of applicant status and all management and
financial responsibilities of the project." Responsibility for managing this project and
acquiring the buses has always been presumed by staff as the City's. This clause merely
formalizes that assumption.
FISCAL IMPACT:
As stated in the original Council agenda report, this Proposition 116 grant application
requires no match on the part of the City.
