Transportation Enhancement (TE) Program
[statement of Issue, Funding Source,Recommended Action,Alternative Action(s),Analysis,Environmental Status,Attachment(s)
Statement of Issue: As a condition of eligibility to receive grant funds through the
Transportation Enhancement (TE) Program, the City must adopt a resolution authorizing the
application for funding through the TE grant program administered by the Orange County
Transportation Authority (OCTA).
Funding Source: Funding is not required for the resolution. Should the City be
successful in this application for TE grant funds, a maximum reimbursement of $156,000
would be available to the City. Fifty percent of the City's $244,000 share in matching funds
would be funded through the General Fund account. The Sea Isle Garden Club and
Committee of 1000 have committed to contributing the remaining $122,000 in matching
private funds.
Recommended Action: Motion to:
Adopt Resolution No. 2007-70 authorizing application for funds for the Transportation
Enhancement (TE) Program under the 2005 Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient,
Transportation Act — Legacy for Users for the Edinger Avenue Parkway Improvement Project.
Alternative Action(s):
Deny adoption and forego eligibility to receive grant funds through the 2007 TE program.
This action could result in the possible loss of grant funds amounting to $156,000.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
MEETING DATE: 10/15/2007 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PW 07-062
Analysis: On August 27, 2007, the OCTA Board of Directors approved a call for projects for
TE funding over two fiscal years, 2008/09 and 2009/10. As a condition of eligibility, the City
is required to adopt a resolution authorizing the application for TE funding for landscape
enhancement projects. On September 4, the City Council directed staff to submit the subject
resolution.
In general, the resolution declares the City's desire to implement the submitted project, as
well as an affirmation to follow TE procedures should funding be approved and allocated.
The resolution also identifies the Director of Public Works, or his designee, as the City's
official representative to act in connection with the application, and provide information as
necessary. The following project will be considered as a candidate subject to review and
ranking by OCTA and the TE Advisory Panel:
Project Description TE Funds Requested City Match
1. Edinger Avenue Parkway Improvements $156,000 $244,000*
(from Saybrook Lane to Countess Drive)
* Private resident groups have committed to providing 50% ($122,000) of the City matching funds.
This application is for supplemental funding to install the landscape and irrigation
improvements proposed in Phase 2 of the project. The construction contract for Phase 1 of
the project, which included the clearing of existing, invasive vegetation and the installation of
concrete curb, was awarded at the August 20, 2007 Council meeting. Should the City be
successful in obtaining the TE grant funding, construction on Phase 2 of the project, is
anticipated to begin October 2008.
Strategic Plan Goal:
1-1 Improve the City's plan for funding and completing infrastructure needs, and develop
strategies for resolving crucial infrastructure problems to preserve the physical foundation of
the community and enable the community's value to grow.

this project on June 20, 2007, with a vote of 4-0-3 (Harlow, Kirkorn and Spencer.absent)
