DISCUSSION On October 18, 2016, the City Council approved a new Master Agreement for Federal -Aid Projects with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), replacing the previous Master Agreement which had been in place since 2007. Master Agreements are generally in place for a period of approximately ten years. While the updated Master Agreement details new grantee general requirements, subsequent Program Supplements allow the City to secure specific grants by identifying precise grant amounts, their purpose, and timeline for completion. The Program Supplements are time - sensitive and require execution by the City as the last step to securing the grant and thereafter receive the funds. To facilitate this process, staff is requesting approval of a resolution authorizing the Executive Director of the Public Works Agency to execute all Program Supplements under the new Master Agreement No. 12- 5063F15. This is a standard method used by local agencies to efficiently secure and receive funds, and to avoid any chance of lapse. The prior Master Agreement had a similar authorizing resolution, and staff recommends continuing that practice. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #6 - Community Facilities & Infrastructure, Objective #1 (establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City assets), Strategy G (develop and implement the City's Capital Improvement Program in coordination with the Community Investment and Deferred Maintenance Plans). 55B -1 Resolution for Program Supplement Agreements For Revised Master Agreement No. 12- 5063F15 February 7, 2017 Page 2 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
