DISCUSSION: On March 11, 2002, the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) issued a call for projects for the Arterial Highway Rehabilitation Program (AHRP). The AHRP was developed to support local agency efforts to address their pavement rehabilitation needs by providing funds for the rehabilitation of Master Plan of Arterial Highway (MPAH) arterial roadways in Orange County. Approximately $11 million is available for Fiscal Year 2002 -03 for AHRP improvements countywide. For a project to be considered for AHRP funding, an agency must share at least 50 percent of their project's eligible costs. Higher percentages of agency share will improve the agency's project competitiveness against those projects submitted by other agencies. The F.Y. 02 -03 AHRP rules limit the maximum funding amount per project to $400,000. On May 17, 2002, Staff submitted the funding application package for the Jamboree Road Rehabilitation Project (from Bison Avenue to University Drive). The proposed project is primarily a maintenance project and does not widen or modify the existing roadway configuration. The project will replace and overlay the existing pavement, and replace median curbs and gutters to improve street drainage. The application submittal deadline was May 24, 2002. The funding for the proposed improvements are estimated as follows: Total Cost AHRP Share City Share Jamboree Road Rehabilitation Project from $1,035,302 $399,736 $635,566 Bison Avenue to University Drive (pavement, median curb and gutter, pavement striping and markings) SUBJECT: ARTERIAL HIGHWAY REHABILITATION PROGRAM May 28, 2002 Page: 2 OCTA requires a draft copy of the Resolution (attached) to be included with the application package, along with a confirmation that Resolution has been agendized for City Council consideration.

OCTA's schedule calls for Technical Advisory Committee review of the application in July 2002, with OCTA Board approval anticipated in August 2002.
