The Measure M2 grant approved for the <br />project is $1,000,000, with the local agencies providing a 20 percent match of $250,000. <br />Santa Ana's share of the match is $29,900. <br />The City of Fullerton is the lead agency in design, construction, and management of the project. <br />The cooperative agreement identifies the roles and responsibilities of Fullerton and all local <br />agencies. The agreement also stipulates that Fullerton is committed to implementing the <br />project, and will provide oversight to maintain interjurisdictional synchronization on Euclid Street <br />during the three-year grant period. <br />25C-1
