File Number: 14-296 <br />funding, committing to the necessary local match and stating assurance that the City will <br />complete the projects. <br />The City submitted two project applications for ATP State competitive funds in May 2014. <br />The first Safe Routes to School (SRTS) project is for an intersection improvement project to <br />add a traffic signal at the Floresta Boulevard and Monterey Boulevard intersection near the <br />James Monroe Elementary School; estimated cost is $801,000. The City’s matching funds <br />are $120,000 (14.98%), and the ATP grant request is $681,000. The second proposed SRTS <br />project would be to build bulb-outs to improve pedestrian safety at the Aurora Drive and State <br />Street intersection near Garfield Elementary School and installing an enhanced, lighted <br />crosswalk near Lincoln High School at 2600 Teagarden Street. The overall cost of the second <br />SRTS project is $341,000. The City’s matching funds would be $51,000 (14.96%) while the <br />ATP grant request is $290,000. Staff recommends that the local match be funded using <br />Measure B Bicycle and Pedestrian Funds and Development Fees for Street Improvements, <br />which carries sufficient balance for the required local matches. <br />Analysis <br />The MTC is the regional transportation planning agency for the San Francisco Bay Area <br />responsible for planning, funding, and delivering transportation projects and programs within <br />the nine-county Bay Area. In addition, the MTC is also responsible for developing the region’s <br />competitive ATP guidelines and implementing MTC’s policies, procedures and project <br />selection criteria for the Regional Competitive ATP. MTC’s share of the ATP provides about <br />$30 million in funding to the nine Bay Area Counties it serves. MTC’s project evaluation <br />criteria match the State ATP criteria, with one additional criterion for the Regional Competitive <br />ATP, which is consistency with the Regional Priorities and Planning Areas, including: <br />·Consistency with Plan Bay Area’s Healthy and Safe goals to reduce particulate matter, <br />collision reduction and encouragement of active transport; <br />·Consistency with the MTC Safe Routes to School Program; <br />·Regional Bike Network Build-out <br />San Leandro’s proposed SRTS projects at James Monroe Elementary School, Garfield <br />Elementary School and Lincoln High School satisfy the MTC Safe Routes to School Program <br />criteria to reduce child injuries and fatalities and to encourage students to walk and bicycle to <br />school. Funded by the Alameda County Transportation Commission (Alameda CTC) Safe <br />Routes to School Program (SR2S) program, a Walk Audit for Garfield Elementary School was <br />conducted on October 20, 2010. The audit was led by TransForm and Alta Planning & <br />Design. Participants included the school principal, teachers, parents and City of San Leandro <br />Engineering & Transportation staff. The proposed bulb-outs project for Garfield Elementary <br />School is one of several recommended improvements resulting from the SR2S Walk Audit. <br />Most of the other recommended, low-cost improvements containing signing and striping works <br />have been implemented by the City and the School District, leaving bulb-outs at the Aurora <br />Drive/State Street intersection unfinished. The traffic signal at the Floresta Boulevard and <br />Monterey Boulevard intersection near the James Monroe Elementary School and enhanced, <br />lighted crosswalk near Lincoln High School at 2600 Teagarden Street were projects identified <br />from San Leandro School District staff input. <br />Page 2 City of San Leandro Printed on 7/15/2014
