Adopt a resolution approving the City of Santa Ana Local Signal Synchronization Plan as part of
the Measure M2 eligibility process.
DISCUSSION
The recently renewed Measure M (Measure M2) provides competitive funding for various local
streets and road improvement projects. The Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Program, in
combination with matching funds, provides a funding source for multiagency corridor-based
signal synchronization along Orange County streets and roads. The program allocates funds
through a competitive process, and targets projects that improve traffic across jurisdictional
boundaries.
To be eligible for competitive funding through this program, the Orange County Transportation
Authority (OCTA) requires local agencies to adopt a Local Signal Synchronization Plan which is
consistent with the Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Master Plan (Exhibit 2). The OCTA
Board recently approved the Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Master Plan and is ready to
issue a call for projects in November 2010. The adoption of the Local Signal Synchronization
Plan is necessary for the City to apply for Measure M2 funding.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the recommended action is not
considered a CEQA project. Therefore, no environmental documentation is required.
