To: The Honorable Moke Simon, Chair, Lake County Board of Supervisors
From: Scott De Leon, Public Works Director
Subject: Approve Agreement for Federal Apportionment Exchange Program and State Match Program for California Department of Transportation - Non MPO County, and authorize the Chair to Sign
Executive Summary: (include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
On March 17, 2020, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) notified the County of the opportunity to participate in the Optional RSTP Federal Exchange and State Match Program for FFY 2019/2020. The exchange amount is based on the County’s estimated FFY 2020 apportionments.
On an annual basis, the County has exchanged the Federal RSTP dollars for unrestricted State dollars which provide greater flexibility on the type and location of projects to be funded. The County continues to meet the criteria to exchange the 2019/2020 apportionments.
Caltrans has forwarded the Federal Apportionment Exchange and State Match Program Agreement for the County of Lake, which allows for the exchange of these funds.
Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the attached Agreement exchanging Federal RSTP dollars for unrestricted State dollars and authorize the chair to sign said agreement. If approved, we respectfully request that both copies of the Agreement be signed by the Chair and returned to this Department for processing.
