f` RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution affirming consistency between the City's Circulation
Element and the Orange County Master Plan of Arterial Highways.
DISCUSSION
Each year local agencies are required to submit documentation to the
Orange County Transportation Authority to obtain and remain eligible to
receive Measure M Program Funds. Additionally, every even-numbered year,
the City is required to adopt a resolution affirming consistency between
the City's Circulation Element and the Orange County Master Plan of
Arterial Highways (MPAH). The resolution attests that the City's adopted
General Plan Circulation Element does not preclude implementation of the
MPAH within the City of Santa Ana. Furthermore, it declares that no
unilateral reduction in through-lanes has been made on MPAH arterials
during Fiscal Years 2006/2007 and 2007/2008, that a uniform setback
ordinance is in effect, and that provisions are in place to limit access
to arterial highways in order to protect the integrity of the system.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
Adoption of the resolution will enable the City to continue to receive
approximately $3.8 million Measure M turnback funds each year and to be
eligible for all Competitive Grant Funding Programs administered by the
OCTA.
