RESOLUTION TO AUTHORIZE THE SUBMITTAL OF THE NO
COOPERATIVE WORK AGREEMENT NEEDED
CONFIRMATION FORM FOR THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
BICYCLE TRANSPORTATION ACCOUNT
Public Works
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the Director of Public Works to submit the No
Cooperative Work Agreement Needed Confirmation Form for the State of California Bicycle
Transportation Account and all future Cooperative Work Agreement requests on behalf of the
City Council.
BACKGROUND
Administered by Caltrans, the State of California Bicycle Transportation Account (BTA)
provides state funds for City projects that improve safety and convenience for bicycle
commuters. On November 27, 2007, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 07-86 authorizing
the submission of a grant application to Caltrans for BTA funds for the Valencia Industrial
Center Bike Lanes project. The City's application was successful in securing a $141,723 BTA
grant for this project.
In October 2010, City staff received notification from the Caltrans District Local Assistance
Engineer that state funding on the Valencia Industrial Center Bike Lanes project (CIP Project
TI 011; Caltrans Project Number BTA 08/09 -07 -LA -1 0) will expire on June 30, 2011. Caltrans is
requiring jurisdictions that will meet the original deadline for the project to submit a No
Cooperative Work Agreement Needed Confin-nation Form. The state requires this form to be
approved by the City Council and submitted by November 23, 2010. The project is expected to
be completed prior to its original project completion date of June 30, 2011.

Adopted:'Rieso. t aw
The project will add bicycle lanes on Avenue Scott, Avenue Stanford, and Vanderbilt Way in the
Valencia Industrial Center. The design is complete and is currently in the public participation
process. Construction will be completed in spring 2011. BTA funds will be expended and
reimbursed prior to the expiration date of June 30, 2011.
Cooperative Work Agreements are standard Caltrans administrative forms. They are necessary
when an awarded grant is nearing expiration status and needs to be extended. They often need to
be submitted to Caltrans in an expedited fashion. Due to the standard nature of these forins and
the need for a quick response time, staff recommends that the City Council authorize the Director
of Public Works to submit all future Cooperative Work Agreement requests on behalf of the City
Council. Future grant applications requiring City Council authorization will continue to be
presented to the City Council for their approval.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact by this action.
