In the nine-county Bay Area <br />region, the MTC makes TDA Article 3 funds available for pedestrian/bicycle purposes. Each year, <br />the MTC allocates TDA funds to eligible claimants after review of applications from counties and <br />congestion management agencies. Alameda County is responsible for submitting an annual <br />program of projects that are implemented by each local agency in the county. The TDA funds are <br />distributed by population. <br />Analysis <br />Annually, the City applies for TDA funds from the MTC for pedestrian improvements throughout <br />the City. The City is entitled to $141,443 for this next fiscal year (FY 2023-2024). The TDA funds <br />will be used to install pedestrian improvements. The work will be completed as part of the City’s <br />Sidewalk Repair project (2023.0060), which has been expanded to include requested curb ramp <br />installations not associated with street resurfacing work. <br />Current Agency Policies <br />·Maintain and enhance San Leandro’s infrastructure <br />Previous Actions <br />Page 1 City of San Leandro Printed on 5/31/2023
