DISCUSSION: Measure M On November 8, 2004, OCTA issued a call for projects for various improvement projects under the Combined Transportation Funding program. The City will be applying for funds with the Arterial Highway Rehabilitation Program (AHRP), and the Signal Improvements Program (SIP). 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. The Signal Improvement Program provides funding for improvements that lead to better operation and management of signal systems and traffic congestion relief throughout the county. Arterial Highway Rehabilitation Program Within the AHRP, approximately $75 million is available for Fiscal Year 2005 -06 and Fiscal Year 2006 -07 for 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 SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution for Measure M Funding from the Orange County Transportation Authority January 25, 2005 Page 2 competitiveness against those projects submitted by other agencies. AHRP projects limit the maximum funding amount per project to $400,000. On January 24, 2005, staff submitted seven funding application packages for the various pavement rehabilitation projects throughout the City. The proposed projects are primarily for maintenance and repair of existing pavement with no widening or modification of the existing roadway configuration. These projects will replace and overlay the existing pavement, and replace median curbs and gutters to improve street drainage. A summary of the projects with funding are as follows: FISCAL YEAR 2005 -06 AHRP PROJECTS Project Description Total Cost AHRP Share City Share Hospital Road Rehabilitation from Newport Boulevard to Placentia Avenue (pavement, $175,000 $87,500 $87,500 striping, and markings) Placentia Avenue Rehabilitation from Hospital Road to North City Limits (pavement, striping $693,400 $346,700 $346,700 and markings) - Birch Street Rehabilitation from Bristol Street to MacArthur Avenue (pavement, pavement $505,200 $252,600 $252,600 striping and markings) 1 $505,600 $141,600 $364,000 Jamboree Road Rehabilitation Project from University Drive to Bristol Street (pavement, $874,000 $400,000 $474,000 median curb and gutter, striping and markings) FISCAL YEAR 2006 -07 AHRP PROJECTS Project Description Total Cost LAHRP Share City Share Superior Avenue Rehabilitation from Coast Highway to North City Limits (pavement, $882,600 $441,300 $441,300 striping, and markings) Jamboree Road Rehabilitation Project from San Joaquin Hills Road to Ford Road $913,900 $399,200 $514,700 (pavement, median curb and gutter, striping - and markings) Bristol Street North Rehabilitation from Jamboree Road to Campus Drive /Irvine 1 $505,600 $141,600 $364,000 Avenue (pavement, striping and markings) Signal Improvement Program Within the SIP approximately $10 million is available for Fiscal Year 2005 -06 and Fiscal Year 2006 -07 for improvements countywide. For a project to be considered for SIP funding, an agency must share at least 20 percent of their project's eligible costs with higher percentages of agency share improving the agency's project competitiveness against those projects submitted by other agencies. SIP projects limit the maximum funding amount per project to $250,000. SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution for Measure M Funding from the Orange County Transportation Authority January 25, 2005 Page 3 On January 24, 2005, staff submitted three funding application packages for the various projects throughout the city. The proposed projects are the first phases of a program to replace the City's outdated traffic signal control system. These projects will provide the foundation of the new traffic signal system with the procurement and installation of a new central traffic signal system that can be easily maintained and expanded. Additionally, these projects will begin the city -wide upgrade of existing traffic signals to a modern traffic signal controller and begin the upgrade of the traffic signal communications system to a fiber optic system, including all applicable equipment, training, and design to implement the new system. A summary of the projects with funding are as follows: FISCAL YEAR 2005 -06 SIP PROJECTS Project Description Total Cost SIP Share City Share Project 1 $377,000 $250,000 $127,000 Project 2 $382,000 $250,000 $132,000 FISCAL YEAR 2006 -07 SIP PROJECTS Project Description Total Cost SIP Share City Share Project 3 361,000 250,000 111,000 Project 1 consists of the following: • Procurement and installation of a new central traffic signal system to be located in the traffic engineering area at City Hall, including three workstations, software, hardware, communications interface, and training. Procurement and installation of eight new traffic signal controllers and communications equipment for MacArthur Boulevard from San Miguel Drive to Bison Avenue, for Avocado Avenue at Farallon Drive and San Miguel, and for San Miguel Drive at San Joaquin Hills Road. Project 2 consists of the following: • Procurement and installation of new traffic signal controllers and communications equipment for the twelve recently- annexed signalized intersections along Coast Highway from Jamboree Road to Newport Coast Drive and one new controller for Avocado Avenue at Corporate Plaza. • Procurement and installation of approximately 22,000 feet of fiber optic interconnect cable to link the 13 intersections listed above to the central traffic signal system, including communications equipment at the Central Library; Project 3 consists of the following: Procurement and installation of new traffic signal controllers and communications equipment along the eight signalized intersections of SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution for Measure M Funding from the Orange County Transportation Authority January 25, 2005 Page 4 Newport Coast Drive, San Joaquin Hills Road at Ridge Park Road /Newport Ridge Drive East, San Joaquin Hills Road at Newport Ridge Drive West, and Ridge Park Road at the Fire Station. • Procurement and installation of approximately 19,000 feet of fiber optic interconnect cable to link the 11 intersections listed above to the central traffic signal system, including communications equipment at the Newport Coast Fire Station ( #8). Submittal Requirements For both the AHRP and SIP programs OCTA requires a draft copy of the Resolution (attached) to be included with the application package, along with a confirmation that the Resolution has been agendized for City Council consideration. A final copy of the Resolution will be forwarded to OCTA upon adoption. OCTA's schedule calls for Technical Advisory Committee review of the applications to begin in February of 2005 and conclude in May, with OCTA Board approval anticipated on May, 23, 2005. Once the funding application has been approved by OCTA, the processing of project advertisement authorization and reimbursement requests will be handled through Caltrans. SB1346 Applications have been submitted to the California Integraged Waste Management Board relating to SB 1346 for funding with Rubberized Asphalt Concrete Roadways. SB 1346 provides up to $50,000 per project when recycled tires are used in the paving of roadways as Rubberized Asphalt Concrete. Newport Beach has had success with this product in recent projects paving Jamboree Road (Coast Highway to San Joaquin Hills Road and Ford Road to University Drive) and Balboa Boulevard (various projects between Balboa Village and 27w Street). Rubberized Asphalt Concrete paving has a slightly higher cost than traditional Asphalt Concrete, but it has a longer design life and performs at a higher level in arterial roadways. For these reasons seven projects being submitted for AHRP funding will be paved with the Rubberized Asphalt Concrete. Five of them qualify for funding as part of SB 1346 and are as follows: FISCAL YEAR 2005 -06 PROJECTS Project Description Total Cost Requested Funds Birch Street Rehabilitation $505,152 $7,500 Jamboree Road Rehabilitation Project from $874,000 $10,000 University Drive to Bristol Street SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution for Measure M Funding from the Orange County Transportation Authority January 25, 2005 Page 5 FISCAL YEAR 2006 -07 PROJECTS Project Description Total Cost Re guested Funds Superior Avenue Rehabilitation $882,482 $12,300 Jamboree Road Rehabilitation Project from $915,000 $8,400 San Joaquin Hills Road to Ford Road Bristol Street Rehabilitation $506,000 $6,600 The CIWMB requires a confirmation that a Resolution has been agendized for City Council consideration. A final copy of the Resolution will be forwarded to the CIWMB upon adoption. Environmental Review: Not applicable at this time. CEQA requirements for each project will be addressed when they are in design. Prepared by: Sean Crumby, P.E. Associate Civil Enginee Attachments: OCTA Resolution CIWMB Resolution Submitted by: ,KG.
