County Master Plan of Arterial Highways to maintain eligibility to continue receiving Measure M
Program funding.
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 Comprehensive
Transportation Funding Programs (CTFP) Funds. Additionally, the City is required to adopt a

in through-lanes has been made on MPAH arterials during fiscal years 2008/2009 and 2009/2010,
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.
