Adopt Resolution No. approving the submittal of the City's FY 1999 - 2000 project applications to the Orange County Transportation Authority for funding under the Combined Transportation Funding Program. 2. Amend the 7 -year Capital Improvement Project Plan to include Jamboree Road /MacArthur Boulevard Intersection Improvements and San Miguel Drive Improvements from Avocado Avenue to MacArthur Boulevard. DISCUSSION: On June 30, 1998, the Orange County Transportation Authority issued a five year call for projects for various Measure M programs. Cities were invited to submit eligible projects for the various programs. It is estimated that approximately $57.5 million in Measure M sales tax funds will be available to Orange County cities with this call for projects (see Exhibit "A "). Program funds will be allocated based on project merit such as safety, project readiness, cost - effectiveness, etc. The structure of the funding programs is based on a two- tiered approach. This two tiered approach is part of a five year cycle. The first tier encompasses the first two years of the five year cycle, and is intended for "project ready" projects. Projects that are approved by OCTA within Tier I are eligible to receive full funding allocations within the designated year. The second tier includes the last three years of the five year cycle. Tier II projects will also receive a funding commitment, but not for the total target amount. This allows for future projects to be funded in the next call for projects which will occur in two years. Staff submitted the attached list of projects (see Exhibit "B ") on October 2, 1998. These improvements are necessary to accommodate projected traffic at the specified locations. In the review of the Circulation Element of the General Plan, these projects are high on the priority list for improving the level of service as the City reaches a SUBJECT: FY 1999 - 2000 COMBINED TRANSPORTATION FUNDING PROGRAM APPLICATION October 26, 1998 Page: 2 buildout condition.

Jamboree Road /MacArthur Boulevard Intersection Improvements The proposed Jamboree Road /MacArthur Boulevard intersection improvements would include the widening of MacArthur Boulevard and add a northbound and southbound left turn lane and a right turn lane on MacArthur Boulevard. The goal of the project is to increase the intersection capacity to improve its unacceptable level of service for existing and future traffic. The intersection improvements are proposed to be accomplished in three phases: 1) Design, 2) Right -of -way Acquisition, and 3) Construction. A Tier 1, year 2 (2000/01) project is proposed to prepare the design including plans, specifications, and cost estimates. The estimated cost for this phase is $105,000. A project is proposed within Tier Il, year 3, (2001/02) to acquire right -of -way as required to construct the project. The estimated cost is $567,000. A construction project is proposed in Tier II, year 4 (2002/03). The estimated construction cost is $1,029,000, bringing the total cost of the project to $1,700,000. The Intersection Improvement Program provides a maximum of $1.2 million per project. This amount will vary depending on the available funds and the number of applictions received. The balance of the required funds must be budgeted by the City over a three year period. 2.

The improvements are proposed to be accomplished in a one year period. A Tier 1, year 1 (1999/00) project is proposed to prepare the design including plans, specifications, and cost estimates. The estimated cost for this project is $12,000. The improvements construction is also proposed as a Tier I, year 1 (1999/00) project. The estimated construction cost is $104,000, bringing the total cost of the project to $116,000. 3. Jamboree Road /Bison Avenue Intersection Improvements The proposed Jamboree Road /Bison Avenue intersection improvements would provide for the widening of Jamboree Road to accommodate seven through lanes at the intersection. The goal of the project would be to increase the intersection capacity to improve its level of service for existing and future traffic. The intersection improvements are proposed to be accomplished in three phases: 1) Design, 2) Right -of -way Acquisition, and 3) Construction. A Tier 1, year 2 (2000/01) project is proposed to prepare the design including plans, specifications, and cost estimates. The estimated cost for this phase is $58,000. A project is proposed within Tier II, year 3, (2001/02) to acquire right -of -way as required to construct the project. The estimated cost is $290,000. A construction project is proposed in Tier II, year 4 (2002/03). The estimated construction cost is $302,000, bringing the total cost of the project to $650,000. 4.
