MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL
SUBJECT: PPW JOB #05-17 - FEDERAL PROJECT CML-5067(011) - HIGHWAY 9
SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS
AUGUST 22, 2006
DISCUSSION:
With each Federal-aid project, a Program Supplement specific to the project is required to
ZI)
engage the terms of the Master Agreement.
This project is a multi jurisdiction effort to improve safety by developing bike lanes, pedestrian
pathways and potential streetscapes along Highway 9 from Saratoga through Monte Sereno to
Los Gatos. The improvements will offer adequate separation between vehicular and bicycle
traffic and close a _gap in the County's bicycle network. The project is funded through the _
Federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) grant program.
The release of Federal funds can only take place upon signing of the Program Supplement
Agreement by an authorized official. The authorized official and the Federal project must be
clearly identified in the Resolution. The Department of Transportation has notified the Town
that it will not accept the Town Manager's signature until a Resolution is presented, authorizing
the Town Manager to be the official for signing the Program Supplement. Funds will be released
once the resolution is presented. This can be done by signing the Master Agreement to apply
toward the Program Supplement on PPW Job #05-17 - Federal Project CML-5067(011). A letter
from the Department of Transportation includes the program supplement, special covenants or
remarks, and Finance Letter.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends the approval of the program supplement agreement (Exhibit A) under the
Master Agreement with the State of California Department of Transportation.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
Council approval of the attached resolution is not a project defined under CEQA, and no further
action is required.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The signing of this Resolution will allow the Town to obtain grant funding from the Federal
Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) grant program, as approved in the FY2006-07
Capital Improvement Project budget. This agreement will provide documentation to CMAQ staff
that each municipality has agreed to provide a match in proportion to the dollar amount of work
to be completed in each jurisdiction, and further secure the grant funding.

Enclosed are two originals of the Program Supplement Agreement No. 004-M to Administering Agency-State
Agreement No. 04-5067 and an approved Finance Letter for the subject project. Please retain the signed Finance
Letter for your records.
We have included two new special covenants that allow any funding for future phases of this project be encumbered
upon approval of the "Request for Authorization" and Finance Letter. The Program Supplement Agreement need not be
revised for that purpose. However, please note that federal funding will be lost if you proceed with future
phase(s) of the project prior to getting the "Authorization to Proceed" with that phase.
Please review the covenants and sign both copies of this Agreement and return both to this office, Office of Project
Implementation - MS1 within 60 days from the date of this letter. If the signed Agreements are not received back in this
office within 60 days, funds will be disencumbered and/or deobli gated. Alterations should not be made to the
agreement language or funding. Attach your local agency's certified authorizing resolution that clearly identifies the
project and the official authorized to execute the agreement. A fully executed copy of the agreement will be returned to
you upon ratification by Caltrans. No invoices for reimbursement can be processed until the agreement is fully
executed.
f
In accordance to Government Code 16304, Federal funds appropriated by the State budget are available for liquidation
only for seven years and the State funds are available only for five years. The attached Finance Letter shows these
deadlines as the "Reversion Date". Please ensure that your invoices are submitted at least 60 days prior to the
reversion date to avoid any lapse of funds. If your agency is unable to seek reimbursement by this date you may
request an extension through a Cooperative Work Agreement (CWA). A CWA is subject to the final approval of the
State Department of Finance. If approved, the CWA may extend the deadline for up to one year for federal funds and
up to three years for State funds.
Please note that Government Code 16304 does not supersede any other more restrictive expenditure deadlines.
Your prompt action is requested. If you have questions, please contact your District Local Assistance Engineer.

PROJECT, said ADMINISTERING AGENCY must carry out that acquisition in compliance with the
