BACKGROUND
At the September 12, 2006 City Council meeting, City Council directed staff to submit
applications for one-time supplemental funding on three previously funded projects under the
Call for Projects. The City received 100 percent of the request, a total of $5,413,000. In order to
receive the additional funding, the City is required to amend the current Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) and/or Letter of Agreement (LOA). In addition, projects are required to
expend funds and be completed by June 2008 or the funds will lapse.
The Supplemental Call awarded funds are identified below. Appropriation of the funds will be
addressed via separate agenda item, or via the Fiscal Year 2007-08 budget process.
1. Magic Mountain'Parkway Phase lI received an additional $5 million to address the increase
in construction costs. No additional match dollars are required.
APPROVED
2. Incident Management - Traveler Information Subsystem is currently in design, and the
additional $300,000 grant and corresponding $500,000 match dollars are designated towards
a planned expansion including additional fiber optic cable, system detectors, and closed
caption televisions.
3. Santa Clara River Regional Trail I-5 to Discovery Park received an additional $113,000 to
design the final segment from Keystone's development to the future Discovery Park. A
corresponding match of $97,000 is required.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
City Council may choose to decline the Metro grant award.
FISCAL IMPACT
The requested revenue increases represent pending appropriations that will be addressed at a later
date. Staff anticipates that the Magic Mountain Phase II appropriation of $5 million will occur
later this year, and the remaining appropriations of $413,000 in grant revenues and corresponding
match requirements of $597,000 will occur via the Fiscal Year 2007-08 budget process.
