A total amount of $114.5 million was made available statewide for projects that reduce waste and debris, install measures to beautify and improve public spaces and mitigate the urban heat island effect, improve public spaces for walking and recreation, and advance equity for underserved communities. The Public Works Agency submitted a successful application for $398,000 of funding for Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) bus stop facility improvements throughout the city (Exhibit 1). This project will provide one new bus shelter, 34 benches, 28 trash bins, two trees, and up to five selected sidewalk repairs. These improvements foster the District Transit Partnership's primary objective of enhancing the cleanliness and attractiveness of bus stops within the city. The shelter and benches will afford transit users the ability to comfortably sit while waiting for bus arrivals and the new trash bins will decrease the amount of litter and debris at the bus shelters.
