ADDENDUM TO OCTA <br />COMMUTER BIKEWAYS STRATEGIC PLAN <br />Introduction <br />In order to be eligible for Bicycle Transportation Account funding, the City of Santa Ana is <br />required to have an adopted bicycle transportation plan that meets with the criteria of the <br />California Bicycle Transportation Act (Sections 890 -894.2 of the California Streets and <br />Highways Code). There is an option for the City to either prepare its own plan or to adopt a <br />countywide plan. <br />A countywide plan does exist in the OCTA Commuter Bikeways Strategic Plan (CBSP) adopted <br />by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) Board of Directors on May of 2009. <br />The 2009 CBSP, an update to the plan previously adopted by OCTA in 2001, represents the <br />culmination of a regionally supported effort that took a little over a year to complete. The result <br />is a comprehensive plan that was coordinated with city and county bike plans, general plans, land <br />use maps and existing and proposed bicycle systems. Public input was also sought through <br />surveys, public meetings, and by posting the draft document on the OCTA website. <br />The information submitted by the City of Santa Ana to OCTA for inclusion in the countywide <br />plan was intended to replicate the Bikeway Master Plan adopted by City Council in 1998. <br />However, after several iterations, the final CBSP document was found to include some minor <br />discrepancies. For the City to adopt the CBSP as its bicycle plan in accordance with the <br />California Streets and Highways Code, this addendum is being prepared to identify the areas <br />where it differs from the Council - approved plan. The CBSP, this addendum, its maps and <br />exhibits will together embody the City of Santa Ana Bikeways Strategic Plan. <br />Addendum <br />The city of Santa Ana accepts the Endings and proposed plans identified in the 2009 OCTA <br />Commuter Bikeways Strategic Plan with the following exceptions: <br />1. Add Class I bikeway on Bear Street from Segerstrom to MacArthur Blvd. to Map 1. 1, <br />Map 1.2 and Exhibit: Orange County Bikeway Map / Section 3 and Section 4 in <br />Appendix 4. <br />2. Identify Raitt Street between McFadden Avenue and Edinger Avenue as a Proposed <br />Class I Bikeway in Map 1.1 and Exhibit: Orange County Bikeway Map / Section 3 in <br />Appendix 4. <br />3 <br />
