Adopt a resolution confirming the status and update of the Pavement Management Plan per Orange County Transportation Authority 2020-21 Measure M2 eligibility requirements. 2. Adopt a resolution confirming the status and update of the City's 2020 Local Signal Synchronization Plan to maintain eligibility for Measure M2 Program funding. DISCUSSION In November 1990, Orange County voters approved Measure M, a one-half cent sales tax increase for 20 years, to fund transportation projects in Orange County. Sixteen years later, in November 2006, the voters again approved the Renewal of Measure M, referred to as M2, for an additional thirty years. M2 became effective in April 2011, and the net revenues generated by M2 contribute to two types of grant funding: Local Fair Share (LFS) and Competitive. All Orange County cities are eligible for LFS funding which is distributed on a formula -based allocation determined by population, number of existing Master Plan of Arterial Highways centerline miles, and taxable sales. Under the competitive component of M2 funding, Cities must compete and demonstrate support of regional transportation to successfully qualify for grant monies. Fulfilling M2 eligibility requirements also allows the City to qualify for other regional competitive OC Go M2 grant funding opportunities. The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) determines annual eligibility for M2 funds based upon specific criteria that cities must meet prior to June 30 of every year. In order to maintain M2 eligibility for Fiscal Year 2020-21 (FY 20-21), the City must update, and adopt via resolution, a Pavement Management Plan (PMP) biennially (Exhibit 1). The PMP is the City's strategic plan to manage the preservation, rehabilitation, and maintenance of paved roads by analyzing pavement life cycles, assessing overall system performance costs, and determining alternative strategies and necessary costs to improve paved roads (Exhibit 2). A copy of the PMP with a certification must be submitted to OCTA by June 29, 2020. 55B-1
