RECOMMENDATION(S):
Recommendation
That the Board of Supervisors:
1. Adopt the attached resolution to execute the annual Federal Apportionment Exchange Program and State Match Program Agreements; and
2. Approve the Agreement No. X22-5904(191) with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) regarding the assignment of federal apportionments made available to the Count of Humboldt for allocation to transportation projects in exchange for nonfederal State Highway Account funds.
Body
SOURCE OF FUNDING:
Roads Funds (1200)
Regional Surface Transportation Program Funds
DISCUSSION:

Staff recommends this option because it allows the funds to be used for road maintenance. Due to the large amount of deferred road maintenance, discretionary maintenance monies are more beneficial than construction monies. The attached Agreement X22-5904(191) with the Caltrans (Attachment 1) must be executed in order for the county to participate in the program.
