Cooperative Agreement with Caltrans for <br />Main Street Traffic Signal Synchronization Project <br />June 16, 2020 <br />Page 2 <br />Caltrans does not allow local jurisdictions or third parties to make operational changes to Caltrans- <br />operated traffic signals. Therefore, Caltrans must be retained to make the necessary traffic signal <br />changes for the project, and a separate Santa Ana/Caltrans Cooperative Agreement is required. <br />This new Santa Ana/Caltrans Cooperative Agreement identifies operational responsibilities, and the <br />cost for Caltrans to furnish and install the necessary equipment, and to review and implement the <br />new traffic signal timing (Exhibit 2). The total cost for the Santa Ana/Caltrans traffic signal <br />synchronization changes is $7,500. This cost will be treated like other project costs, where 80% is <br />covered by the grant and 20% by Santa Ana. The project grant will, therefore, pay $6,000 of the <br />$7,500 cost, and the City's share will be $1,500. <br />STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT <br />Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #6 - Community Facilities & <br />Infrastructure, Objective #1 (establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City assets), <br />Strategy B (equitably maintain existing streets and associated assets in a state of good repair so <br />they are clean, safe and aesthetically pleasing for all users). <br />ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT <br />There is no environmental impact associated with this action. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />As the lead agency for the Main Street Traffic Signal Synchronization project, OCTA will pay the <br />$7,500 cost to furnish and install the traffic signal improvements at the three Caltrans locations within <br />the city boundaries. Upon project closeout, OCTA will invoice Santa Ana for its 20% cash match of <br />$1,500. Funding for the City's share of the cost was budgeted in the FY 2018-19 CIP. The funds <br />are available in the Measure M2 Street Construction Fund (Account No. 03217662-66220, Project <br />No. 19-6949) for expenditure in FY 2020-21 as follows: <br />Accounting Unit - <br />Accounting Unit -Account <br />Fiscal Year <br />Account No. <br />Fund Description <br />No. Description <br />Amount <br />Project No. <br />FY 2020-21 <br />03217662-66220 <br />Measure M-Street <br />Measure M2 Local <br />Fairshare - Improvements <br />$1,500 <br />July -June <br />(19-6949) <br />Construction <br />Other Than Building <br />Paid by OCTA with project grant funds <br />$6,000 <br />TOTAL <br />$7,500 <br />NS/EWG/CR <br />Exhibits: 1.
