Wilson, City Administrator PREPARED BY: Travis K. Hopkins, PE, Director of Public Works SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution 2010-29 Authorizing the Director of Public Works to Execute Program Supplements to the Caltrans Master Agreement for Transportation Projects Statement of Issue: The proposed resolution will authorize the Director of Public Works to execute Program Supplements to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Master Agreement for Transportation Projects for Federal Aid projects related to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) grant programs. Program Supplements are administrative actions that release approved grant funds for a specific project. Funding Source: No funds required for this action. Recommended Action: Motion to: Adopt Resolution No. 2010-29, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Authorizing the Director of Public Works to Execute Program Supplements to the California Department of Transportation Master Agreement for Transportation Projects." Alternative Action(s): Deny adoption of the authorizing resolution and maintain the current process. Item #8. REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: 4/5/2010 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PW 10-022 Analysis: Since 1978, the City has had a Master Agreement with the State of California for the Federal Aid Program. In 2006, the City entered into a new Master Agreement identified as Master Agreement 12-5181 R, which allowed the City to execute future Supplemental Agreements for Federal Aid projects. The Agreements are the final documents required to obtain allocated federal funds as awarded through the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). As the Supplemental Agreements require approval from the Local Agency or duly authorized individual, it's been our practice for the City Council to approve each Supplemental Agreement. However, as this is an administrative step in the process, it is possible to delegate the signature authority to the Director of Public Works, or other City official. The City Council will continue to approve the resolution to apply for FHWA funds, approve the project through the Capital Improvement Program, and authorize award of the project for construction. Recently, Caltrans representatives provided a sample blanket resolution which would help agencies streamline the supplemental agreement execution process. Adopting the resolution will allow the Director of Public Works to execute Program Supplemental Agreements and assist the City in streamlining the supplemental agreement execution process.
