McCluskey, Public Works DirectoAVWN PREPARED BY: Harry Watson, Transit Manager , U SUBJECT: Consideration of approving a resolution for the 1994-1995 annual claim for Transportation Development Act funds totaling $913,584 CAO RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a resolution approving the annual Transportation Development Act (TDA), and authorize the Transit Manager to execute claims DISCUSSION: Background TDA and State Transit Assistance (STA) are administered locally by the San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (SLOCOG). STA is a portion of the State gasoline tax. Both TDA and STA have been in existence since 1972. These funds are apportioned on the basis of population by SLOCOG. This resolution is an annual requirement of the City's claim for it's apportioned funding level of the TDA and is an annual activity. In accordance with TDA regulations, transit services are the first spending priority (such as SLID Transit and the Regional Transit system). TDA allocations are made County-wide, based on population. Council policy is that all TDA funds coming to the City should be allocated to alternative transportation programs and projects. The current year's transit budget was approved accordingly. The TDA allocation available to the City in 1994/95 amounts to $913,458 ($836,869 from TDA and $76,679 from STA) for the following purposes: City Share of Regional Transit Cost $326,166 Bike and Pedestrian Projects 16,737 SLO Transit (from TDA) 493,965 SLO Transit (from STA) 76.679 Total $913,548 Last fiscal years allocation total was $995,263. The $81,715 decline in revenue is a result of declining sales tax revenues (TDA is 1/4 of one cent of the sales tax). FISCAL IMPACT: The TDA claim is consistent with the Council adopted Short Range Transit Plan. For Council's review, attached is the SLOCOG prepared "ANNUAL PROJECT AND FINANCIAL PLAN'. This plan shows where and how our funds are allocated. Attachments: 1. Resolution 2. SLOCOG Annual Project and Financial Plan 95MAW RESOLUTION NO.
