ITEM NUMBER: 6.
TITLE
Measure U 5-Year Expenditure Plan Update
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolu(on approving an updated Five-Year Expenditure Plan for FY 2025/26 through FY 2029/30 under Measure U (Napa Countywide Road Maintenance Act.)
CONTACT
Erica Ahmann Smithies, P.E., Public Works Director
Ron Ranada, P.E., Senior Civil Engineer
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The 2012 “Napa Countywide Road Maintenance Act” (also known as “Measure T”) imposes a ½ cent sales tax to pay for road repairs countywide. The Napa Valley Transportation Authority – Tax Agency (NVTA-TA) distributes these sales tax revenues to American Canyon on a monthly basis. The City of American Canyon received 7.7% of the sales tax revenues per year, from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2025.
On November 5, 2024 the voters of Napa County passed the Napa Valley Transporta(on Improvement Act, also known as Measure U (superseding Measure T), which con(nues the half cent transac(on and use (sales) tax to provide supplemental funding for road maintenance. The City of American Canyon is es(mated to receive 8.0% of the Measure U sales tax revenues per year, beginning on July 1, 2025.
With Measure U, the percentage of sales tax revenues per year will be reviewed every five years therefore the City's alloca(on could go up or down. In addi(on, the City is allowed to bond for transportation projects in order to advance street repairs.
Similar to Measure T, in order to receive Measure U funds, the City must submit a list of projects to be funded to NVTA – TA. This list is known as the Five Year Expenditure Plan (Plan) and will be updated at a minimum of every 2 years. Expenditure plans are developed considering the following factors: recommenda(ons from the Pavement Management Program (PMP) report, known u(lity 13 deficiencies, local priori(es and the an(cipated funding schedule. Importantly, the Plan is not annual “construc(on schedule” per se; rather, it is a “5-year look ahead” of streets to be addressed in successive years based upon available funding and priori(es. The result is a list of streets with various pavement treatments proposed over the next five years.
On May 6, 2025, City Council adopted Resolu(on 2025-30 approving the five-year expenditure plan for FY 2025/26 through FY 2029/30 that was similar to prior plans and included addi(onal streets that City Council had priori(zed based on adopted capital projects and earlier Council discussions.
Staff is recommending an update to the street list earlier than May 2027 in order to address two street projects that need to be prioritized:
South Kelly Road from Highway 29 to Devlin Road: The reconstruc(on of South Kelly Road is currently in the adopted FY 2025-26 budget and is nearing design comple(on. The project did not include addi(onal funding other than developer contribu(ons therefore staff is recommending the additional funding come from from Measure U to complete construction of the local street work.
Green Island Road from Jim Oswalt Way to the City limits: This segment of Green Island Road was not included in the current reconstruc(on efforts underway in the Green Island Road District.
However, it is in need of near-term maintenance repairs and a future capital alloca(on for full repaving. The es(mated cost of the maintenance work is $235,000 in FY 2025-26, with addi(onal funding in FY 2027-28 for the future capital project. Staff is aware that Napa County plans to repave its sec(on of Green Island Road in the coming years and intends to coordinate efforts, similar to the South Kelly Reconstruction Project.
COUNCIL PRIORITY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS
Infrastructure: "Develop and maintain infrastructure resources to support sustainable growth."
FISCAL IMPACT
By adop(ng this Resolu(on and submiOng the updated five-year plan to NVTA-TA, the City of American Canyon will be eligible to u(lize Measure U revenues on the addi(onal street projects. It is the intent to include any known budget modifica(ons in the mid-year budget which is slated for a future City Council meeting or at the time of contract award of the respective projects.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Approval of the Five-Year Measure U Expenditure Plan is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) because the ac(on is not a “Project” as defined under CEQA, and because ac(ons that have no poten(al to cause a significant effect on the environment and ac(ons that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment are exempt from CEQA. (Pub. Res. Code § 21065; CEQA Guidelines §§ 15061(b)(3); 15060(c)(2)), and 15378(b).

TITLE
State Route 29 Corridor Improvement Project Update
RECOMMENDATION
Receive a presenta(on from Napa Valley Transporta(on Authority (NVTA) regarding the State Route 29 Corridor Improvement Project and provide feedback.
CONTACT
Erica Ahmann Smithies, P.E., Public Works Director
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
American Canyon State Route 29 Corridor Improvement Project The Napa Valley Transporta(on Authority (NVTA), in coopera(on with the California Department of Transporta(on (Caltrans) and the City of American Canyon (City), proposes roadway improvements along State Route 29 (SR 29) within much of the City limits to address various opera(onal and safety needs along the SR 29 corridor.
In May 2020, NVTA completed the SR 29 Comprehensive Mul(modal Corridor Plan. Subsequently, a Project Study Report on the SR 29 corridor in American Canyon was ini(ated, proposing key enhancements such as improved signal infrastructure and roundabouts. This revision aligned the corridor planning process with the funding requirements outlined in SB 1, mee(ng the Comprehensive Mul(modal Corridor Plan (CMCP) guidelines established by the California Transportation Commission in December 2018.
Following comple(on of the CMCP update, NVTA moved forward with work to complete a Project Study Report – Project Development Support (PSR-PSD), also referred to as the project ini(a(on document (PID), focusing on a segment of the SR-29 corridor in American Canyon between Napa Junc(on Road and American Canyon Road. The PID adhered to Caltrans’ Project Development Procedures Manual, evalua(ng high-level project alterna(ves, defining scope, cost, and schedule for each option.
In February 2023, Caltrans and NVTA finalized the PID, iden(fying three alterna(ves, two build and one no-build. The build alternatives propose the following improvements:
22 Alterna(ve 1: Enhancements to exis(ng intersec(on signal infrastructure, featuring transit signal priority for queue jump lanes to optimize traffic flow and operational efficiency.
Alterna(ve 2: Replace five of six signalized intersec(ons along the corridor with roundabouts, increasing overall circula(on whilst providing traffic calming and enhanced intersec(on safety for all users.
Both build alterna(ves will construct enhanced transit stops, relocate exis(ng overhead u(li(es, and replace/construct new bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
On January 16, 2024, City Council authorized Resolu(on No. 2024-03 authorizing the next stage of project development which is the Project Approval and Environmental Document (PA&ED) phase through a Coopera(ve Agreement No. 04-2957 with Caltrans and NVTA. This phase of work will further refine the build alterna(ves iden(fied during the PID, select a preferred build alterna(ve, and produce two key project deliverables - a Project Report securing Caltrans approval and an environmental document ensuring compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).
On January 21, 2026, NVTA staff provided an update to the NVTA Board of Directors of the work completed to date as well as the recommended next steps in the PA&ED phase of the project. NVTA is now bringing the same detailed presenta(on to the American Canyon City Council for informa(on and feedback.
COUNCIL PRIORITY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS
Transporta(on: "Improve the transporta(on network within the City to alleviate conges(on and enhance the quality of life for the community."
