11 • Provide new mobility opons.
• Eliminate boZlenecks and relieve congeson on local streets. • Provide vehicle and pedestrian safety improvement projects. • Address environmental sustainability and other essenal transportaon improvements. • Implement new technologies.

The local agencies in Fresno County understand their needs and how to address them eecvely. This plan empowers them to make these crical choices for their residents and businesses. It also allows residents and businesses to hold elected ocials accountable for the transportaon funding decisions they make.

Local Agencies must idenfy their Category funding split as a part of their annual budget cycle. This informaon will be presented to the Authority as part of agency reporng requirements. ü Subprogram 1.3 -Major Streets and Highways - Improve Safety/Reduce CongesEon is expected to receive 16% of the Fixur Roads Measure proceeds, or $624 million, over the 20 years. In addion, this Subprogram of projects has the highest likelihood of obtaining matching funds. It is ancipated that this program could leverage up to $3.5 billion in addional funding.

The foundaon of the urban and suburban freeway and expressway network has largely been established, complemented by signicant enhancements to rural highways through the iniaves of the 1986 and 2006 Measure programs. Further, signicant improvements have been made to many major local urban and rural roads. As Fresno County looks ahead, future enhancements to the highway system and major local streets and roads must be a top priority. This focus will ensure that our transportaon infrastructure not only meets current demands but also ancipates evolving community needs and promotes safer, more ecient travel for all users. Focus will be on:
• Improving safety.
• Reducing and avoiding congeson.
• Eliminang boZlenecks.
• Increasing sustainability.
• Focusing on mulmodal operaonal improvements such as auxiliary lanes, freeway interchange improvements, metering projects, demand management, and Smart Corridor concepts that maximize the capacity of exisng facilies.
• Facilitang farm-to-market and other goods movement.
• Implemenng new technologies.

These projects facilitate the movement of goods, services, and people throughout the county, while also accommodang the movement of goods from Fresno County agriculture and industries to the rest of the State and the naon.

Subprogram Highlights
Approximately $624 million or 16% for regionally signicant major street and highway improvements which have been divided between the Urban and Rural areas of the county with approximately $437 million or 70% to the Fresno Clovis Metropolitan Area (FCMA), and approximately $187million or 30%, to the remainder of the county (other cies and the county unincorporated area). This funding split generally reects the relave populaons and needs of the urban and rural areas.

12 • This Subprogram relies heavily on leveraged funding from various sources, including the State Transportaon Improvement Program (STIP), the State Highwayperaons and Protecon Program (SHPP), the State Local Partnership Program (SLPP), Federal grants, and the Regional Transportaon Migaon Fee Program (RTMF), as well as other State and Federal funding programs. Historically, these funds have been matched at an eight-to-one rao; thus, every Measure C dollar has been matched by eight non-Measure C funds. The RTMF will require new growth and development within the county and each city to connue contribung to regional street and highway project costs. The purpose of the RTMF Program is to ensure that growth and development pays its fair share of impacts to the county’s transportaon facilies. The RTMF is discussed in more detail later in this Plan.

Fix Our Roads Measure Major Streets and Highways - Improve Safety/Reduce Conges;on Subprogram Project Lists
This secon idenes priority major streets and highway improvement projects to be implemented over the life of the Measure. These projects will be funded with Fixur Roads Measure and other transportaon funding. Major Streets and Highways - Improve Safety/Reduce Congeson Subprogram projects are generally dened as those of regional signicance. These projects tend to be on the highway system, as those facilies are regional by nature; however, this Subprogram also includes projects on major local arterials or regional corridors that will enhance connecons within the urban area and between the cies and rural communies throughout the County.

Esmated funding projecons from the Measure and other transportaon funding programs are provided in Table 3.

This Expenditure Plan contains Tier 1 Urban and Rural Project lists for the Major Streets and Highways - Improve Safety/Reduce Congeson Subprogram (reference Tables 4 and 5). The Tier 1 projects are priority projects that would be programmed for the Fixur Roads Measure and other funding over the life of the Measure. Tier 2 projects are unfunded, but may be eligible for funding if addional Measure funding or other unidened funding becomes available aOer Tier 1 projects are delivered.

The region should have projects that are “shovel-ready” to take advantage of these funding opportunies.

Should the Fixur Roads Measure or other transportaon funding resources become available in excess of those necessary to complete the Tier 1 projects, Tier 2 projects may be amended into Tier 1. Therefore, the FCTA Board may authorize Project Study Reports (PSRs) and preliminary engineering and environmental evaluaons for select Tier 2 projects, should the biannual Major Corridor Transportaon Plan (MCTP) update (described later in this Plan) indicate that addional funding beyond Tier 1 needs may be available.

14 They may also authorize the development of PSRs in the last 5 years of the Measure in order to prepare for a potenal subsequent Measure renewal. These changes between the Tier 1 and Tier 2 lists can be accomplished through the biannual MCTP update process and will require a formal amendment.

Tier 1 and Tier 2 projects are shown in Figures 4 and 5. Tier 2 Project Lists are reected in Tables 6 and 7.

To accomplish Tier 1 projects in amely fashion, at least 75% of the RTIP revenues due to Fresno County over the 20-year life of the Measure shall be commiZed to Tier 1 projects.

Project List Assumpons and Potenal Issues
• To develop these project lists, it was assumed that approximately $1.64 billion in matching funds would be available during the life of the Measure. This is a conservave esmate based upon the 40- year history of Measure C.
• Most projects idened do not have approved esmates. Therst order of work should be to solidify esmates for the highest priority projects, as discussed in the Implemenng Procedures. • These lists do not provide full Fixur Roads Measure funding for all idened projects. It is assumed that other funding sources, including but not limited to an agency’s Improve Local Roads Subprogram funds, will be idened to provide the addional required funding. • The urban and ruraler 1 lists are within the range of funding availability.

The Authority will conduct biennial Major Streets and Highways - Improve Safety/Reduce Congeson Subprogram reviews and updates to ascertain project delivery status and the validity of funding availability. Adjustments to delivery schedules and funding contribuons may be necessary as part of these updates. These updates will be codied in a Major Corridor Transportaon Plan (MCTP) and will be approved by Fresno CG and FCTA.

No later than June 30, 2027, the Authority will idenfy projects from the lists for therstve (5) years of the Fixur Roads Measure Program. These projects will be selected based on relave priority, deliverability, and cashow. No later than June 30, 2034, the Authority will idenfy projects from the urban and rural Tier 1 lists for years 7–20 of the Measure programs, again based on relave priories, deliverability, and cashow.

Many of the Tier 1 projects are needed as soon as possible. To accomplish this, some level of borrowing may be required. The Authority will determine the extent of lending that is reasonable as the Subprogram is implemented.

Regional Transporta;on Mi;ga;on Fee (RTMF) Program
The 2006 Measure C Expenditure Plan set forth requirements for implemenng the Regional Transportaon Migaon Fee (RTMF) Program. The 2006 Measure C ballot included requirements for local Fresno County cies and the county to implement Regional Transportaon Migaon Fees pursuant to California Government Code Secons 66000, et seq., and remit the proceeds to the FCTA to supplement construcon of projects in the Major Streets and Highways - Improve Safety/Reduce Congeson Subprogram. The ballot also included enforcement mechanisms to ensure all Fresno County local agencies parcipated in the program. In response to those requirements, and to implement a consistent regional fee, the local agencies formed a Joint Powers Agency (JPA), Fresno County Regional Transportaon Migaon Fee Agency (FCRTMFA), pursuant to California Government Code Secons 6500, et seq.

This Fixur Roads Measure provides for the connuaon of the RTMF program established by the 2006 Measure, including all local agency enforcement mechanisms, the perpetuaon of the Fresno County RTMF Agency through the life of the Measure, and all adopted policies and agreements currently in eect pertaining to the migaon fee program. The Measure also recognizes that migaon fees are governed by State law, which may change fromme tome. It spulates that the program's implementaon shall remain in compliance with California law. California statute currently requires a major update to the NEXUS in 2028, which will revisit how the fee has been spent on current projects, consider future projects, adjust rates, and address all other legal program requirements. The Fixur Roads Measure would connue the fee schedule adopted under the current Measure C unl the 2028 Nexus Study is completed.

The FCTA, consistent with the adopted and updated Expenditure Plan, shall have the authority and exibility to allocate the RTMF based upon regional priority needs within the county as dened by the biannual update of the Major Corridor Transportaon Plan Update (described elsewhere in this document), and consistent with State law governing impact migaon fees. No later than June 30, 2027, all Fixur Roads Measure agencies must extend the RTMF JPA established as a part of the second Measure

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan
21 C, consistent with Secon 7 of the JPA Agreement. Should any city or Fresno County choose not to implement the RTMF , that agency shall forfeit annually from Subprogram 1.2 an amount equal to the amount of RTMF that would otherwise have been paid for development projects within that jurisdicon during the year . Should an agency choose not to implement the RTMF , that agency shall nofy the Authority of such a decision and shallle an advisory report with the Authority for each development indicang the amount of RTMF that would have been paid. The Authority shall calculate the total RTMF obligaon annually and deduct the appropriate amount of funds for the RTMF from the Subprogram 1.2 allocaon for that agency.
verall, it is ancipated that the RTMF , together with other federal and state funding sources idened in Table 3, will add another $1.64 billion in funding to the $624 million of Fixur Roads Measure funding for a total of $2.26 billion included in this Measure for major street, highway, and road projects in Fresno County.

Program 2: Transit Reimagined Program $702 million or 18% This Program funding will maintain the current level of transit services throughout the County and support studies aimed at "Reimagining Transit" in both the Fresno-Clovis Metropolitan Area (FCMA) and the County's rural areas.

This is an eort to make transit more accessible and eecve while reducing ineciencies and lowering costs.

These studies are expected to be completed within approximately two years aOer the Measure takes eect, or by December 2029.nce the studies are complete, the results will be evaluated, and the Transit Reimagined Program will be reassessed to determine how to allocate remaining Program 2 funding for transit services within the County between 2030 and 2047. 70% of the proceeds ($488,715,724) would be allocated to Fresno Area Express (FAX), 10% ($69,816,532) to Clovis Transit, and 20% ($139,633,064) to FCRTA.

This Program includes provisions for two transit studies:

1. Transit Agency Consolida;on Study
Theonsolidation Study will focus on the feasibility, cost savings, and service improvements that could be achieved through the consolidation of the three transit agencies in Fresnoounty.

2. Reimagine Transit Services Study.

The Reimagine Transit Study will include an evaluation of transit service options available worldwide and recommendations on how transit “best practices” can be utilized here in Fresnoounty. This study will not focus solely on improving the currentfixed route services, but will also examine alternative mobility options to increase service availability, eCiciency, and cost-eCectiveness.

Consolidation Study
This Subprogram requires that a Transit Agency Consolidation Study be completed within two years of the Fixur Roads Measure taking effect or by December 31, 2029. The study will help reimagine transit, bringing transit into the 21st century. A review of similar agency consolidations has identified the potential for overall cost savings of 7-10%. It is also understood that a consolidated system would fall under a union agreement.

The study will be carried out under the guidance of FCTA. Upon compleon, the study will undergo a thorough review process, requiring approval from all three transit agencies or their respecve city

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan
22 councils, the Fresno CG Policy Board, andnally, the FCTA Board. Upon approval, the accompanying recommendaons for transit consolidaon shall be systemacally implemented within a one-year meframe, resulng in a consolidated countywide transit agency by December 31, 2030. Experts have indicated that transit consolidaon would likely result in an overall savings of 7-10% across all transit funding types, not just the Measure poron of transit funding. Should a transit agency(s) choose not to implement changes with cost savings idened by the Consolidaon Study, the FCTA Board may reduce its Transit allocaon by a like amount.

Transit Reimagined
This program will also include the implementaon of Reimagined Transit Studies. These studies, one rural and one urban, aim to enhance transportaon soluons tailored to both urban and rural areas.

Recommendaons may include restructuring exisng transit services and programs currently implemented by the three transit agencies. The rural and urban studies may be combined. This Transit Reimagined study(s) is separate from but complementary to the Transit Consolidaon Study.While these are independent studies, they must be coordinated as the results of one may aCect the other.

A total of $4 million (0.1%) from the Transit Reimagined Program will be set aside for these studies.

Program 2 allocaons will be subject to the Reimagined Transit Studyndings and recommendaons to ensure that future transit services are eecve and more accessible, while reducing ineciencies and operang, facilies, and equipment costs.

The Reimagined Transit studies will be carried out and approved within two years of the Fixur Roads Measure taking eect or by December 31, 2029, under the guidance of the FCTA. The studies will be approved by all three transit agencies or their respecve city councils, the Fresno CG Policy Board, and nally, the FCTA Board. This approach ensures progress connues, regardless of any delays orndings related to the Transit Agency Consolidaon Study, thereby enabling the advancement of study recommendaons andndings. Should a transit agency(s) choose not to implement changes with cost savings idened by the Reimagined Transit Studies, the FCTA Board may reduce its Transit allocaon by a like amount.

Upon approval, the accompanying recommendaons for transit enhancements and improvements shall be systemacally executed within a two-yearmeframe, concluding by December 31, 2031. However, it is acknowledged that certain recommendaons may inherently require more extensivemeframes for eecve implementaon. In such instances, the FCTA board has the authority to grant an extension of the two-year implementaon requirement, providing the necessaryexibility to ensure the successful execuon of thendings and recommendaons. Should a transit agency(s) choose not to implement changes with cost savings idened by the study, the FCTA Board may reduce this Transit allocaon by a like amount.

It is assumed that these two studies should result in a higher level of service at a lower cost. However, there may be implementaon costs associated with the types of changes these studies may recommend.

The cost of implementaon is an eligible expense under this Program 2, and under Program 1, Subprogram

1.2, Category 1.2.2.

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan
23 VMT Mi;ga;on
As a newly implemented iniave, the Fixur Roads Measure funding designated for this Subprogram will serve as newnancial resources specically aimed at improving exisng and future transit services. This allocaon not only supports transit improvements but also meets the criteria for Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) migaon for transportaon projects contained in Subprogram 1.3.

GOVERNANCE
Fresno County Transporta;on Authority Structure Under the Fix Our Roads Measure Program As specied in the Enabling Legislaon, the Fresno County Transportaon Authority will connue its responsibilies to administer the Fixur Roads Measure Program, following a 40-year track record of transparent, accountable, efficient, and fair management of the two prior Measure C programs.

The Authority will administer the Fixur Roads Measure Programs in accordance with plans and programs outlined in the Expenditure Plan and subsequent updates of the Plan.

The enabling legislation requires that the Authority be represented by nine (9) members, including:
ü Two (2) members of the Board of Supervisors appointed by the board, consisting of one (1) member from Rural district 1, 4, or 5 and one (1) member from Urban district 2 or 3. ü Two (2) members representing the City of Fresno, consisting of the mayor thereof and a member of the city council of that city appointed by the city council. ü ne (1) member representing the City of Clovis appointed by the city council of that city. ü Two (2) members representing the other cities within the county, consisting of one (1) Westside member appointed by a committee comprised of the mayor of each of those cities west of State Route 99, and one (1) Eastside member appointed by a committee comprised of the mayors of each of those cities east of State Route 99.
ü Two (2) members of the public-at-large, consisting of one member appointed by the board of supervisors with the appointee residing outside of the incorporated areas of Fresno and Clovis, and one member appointed jointly by the cities of Fresno and Clovis with the appointee residing within the incorporated area of Fresno or Clovis.

In addition, the enabling legislation includes a provision for a Citizens’versight Committee (CC). The CC was formed in 2007 under the current Measure Program and will continue under the Fixur Roads Measure. Details regarding the Committee are contained in the Implementing Procedures.

PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION
The Implemenng Procedures list the administraon and oversight responsibilies to be provided by the FCTA to implement the Fixur Roads Measure.ther administrave provisions, including connuaon of the Authority, administraon, powers and funcons, transportaon coordinaon, and transacon and use taxes, are referenced in the Enabling Legislaon. As with the current Measure C Program, the goal of the Authority and Fresno CG will be to fulll the Promise of the Fixur Roads Measure Program by delivering idened projects and programs.

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan
24 Administraon and oversight of this Fixur Roads Measure Program will be provided by the FCTA who will:
ü Assist with the preparaon of Expenditure Plan updates and amendments. ü Assist with the development and administraon of allocaon program requirements. ü Administer and conduct specied acvies idened in the two (2) Programs described above, including increased oversight, compliance with program requirements, and performance monitoring. ü Perform and review audits of agencies that receive Measure funds as well as Authority acvies.

Addional responsibilies for FCTA and Fresno CG are delineated in the Implemenng Procedures.

Administraon funds are limited to 1% of the overall Fixur Roads Measure Program and are deducted before program funding is calculated. Program Administraon is expected to receive 1% of the Fixur Roads Measure proceeds, or approximately $39 million, over the 20 years.

The Fixur Roads Measure will require signicantly more aZenon to Program Management, Performance Measure development and evaluaon, and similar acvies. These acvies will be charged directly to the related programs and are not part of the Administraon funcon.

Program Management
Managing Fixur Roads Measure projects and programs will require substanally more monitoring, analysis, and reporng than required by Measure C. The Authority will seek the assistance of a program managementrm and/or addional sta. The primary responsibility of enhanced program management would be to assist in developing and monitoring performance measures, as discussed in the Expenditure Plan and the Implemenng Procedures. Enhanced Program Management will also include managing projects contained within the Major Streets and Highways - Improve Safety/Reduce Congeson Subprogram and other responsibilies necessary for ecient and eecve implementaon of the various programs. Enhanced program management responsibilies are part of program and project delivery and separate from Program Administraon. Program Management funding is limited to 1% of Subprogram 1.1, 1.2, 5% of Subprogram 1.3, and 1% of Program 2.

It is recognized that inial Program Management eorts, such as developing and implemenng performance and accountability measures and Project Management systems for the Major Streets and Highways - Improve Safety/Reduce Congeson Subprogram, will require substanally more eort. The Program Management limits will not apply for therst two years of the Subprogram; however, the FCTA Board and stawill ensure that actual costs are reasonable and appropriate. The Program Management amounts for each Program, or Subprogram, may be modied by the Board as necessary, using the Expenditure Plan Update process as dened elsewhere.

Agency Responsibility for Fix Our Roads Measure Funding Recogni;on Connued taxpayer support for sales tax-funded transportaon improvements is crical to the success of any subsequent transportaon measure. It is therefore essenal that each agency prominently recognize the Fixur Roads Measure’s contribuon to any project funded in whole or in part by the Fixur Roads Measure. These requirements will be detailed in the Implemenng Procedures and the Strategic Implementaon Plan (SIP).

Local Hiring Preference
Fixur Roads Measure funded projects provide direct and indirect economic benets to the County through investments in infrastructure and related economic acvies associated with construcon projects. Measure projects will provide good-paying jobs to Fresno County businesses and residents. FCTA, working in connecon with Fresno CG and its member agencies, will develop reasonable local hiring and contracng goals to help

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan
25 ensure those benets are maximized. These goals will be included in the Fixur Roads Measure Strategic Implementaon Plan (SIP). Refer to the Implemenng Procedures for reporng requirements.

PLAN UPDATE AND APPROVAL PROCESS
Regional Transporta;on Plan and Sustainable Communi;es Strategies Fresno CG updates the Regional Transportaon Plan/Sustainable Communies Strategy (RTP/SCS) every four (4) years. That plan provides a transportaon strategy for Fresno County and updates a list of candidate projects for all transportaon modes (streets, highways, public transportaon, bikeways, aviaon, etc.). The RTP/SCS list of projects provided the vast majority of the projects included in this Expenditure Plan. If addional funds are available for any projects beyond those listed in the Tier 1 lists, they will be drawn from the Tier 2 lists and/or idened based on the needs at thatme. As stated before, all updates of the Expenditure Plan will be subject to public review and public hearings. While these candidate projects may change and funding priories may shiO, there are more than enough project needs within the County to be addressed using all types ofnancing, including the Fixur Roads Measure.

Major Corridor Transporta;on Plan Update
Every two years, Authority stawill work with member agencies and aected stakeholders to review and update the Major Corridor Transportaon Plan (MCTP), taking into account the status of project delivery, funding availability, and performance indicators for Subprogram 1.3 projects. The MCTP will be presented to the Fresno CG Policy Board, followed by the FCTA Board for approval.

Strategic Implementa;on Plan Update
Consistent with thendings of the RCTP and following its approval, Authority stawill prepare and update a Strategic Implementaon Plan (SIP) to verify or modify funding expectaons based on the then-currentscal condions, ensuring that the projecons are consistent with future expenditures and the promises made in this Plan.

Expenditure Plan Amendments
Consistent with the enabling legislaon, Fresno CG has the primary responsibility for iniang ocial amendments to the Expenditure Plan. Fresno CG prepares proposed amendments for consideraon by the CG Policy Board. Amendments approved by the Policy Board are then transmiZed to the Authority for consideraon.

If approved by the Authority Board, amendments are incorporated into the Expenditure Plan. While Fresno CG iniates these amendments, it is crical that they should be developed jointly with FCTA to ensure passage by both Boards in amely manner .

The Authority Board may also iniate amendments to the Expenditure Plan. The Authority shall nofy Fresno CG, the Board of Supervisors, and the city council of each city in the county and provide them with a copy of the proposed amendments. The amendment must then be approved by the Board of Supervisors and subsequently by a majority of the cies that constute a majority of the populaon residing in the county's incorporated areas.

Any proposed amendments shall become eecve immediately upon compleon of the approval process.

The Authority shall take all appropriate acons to give the highest priority to the projects and programs in the approved Expenditure Plan. If any amendments delay or delete any project in the inial plan, the Authority shall hold a public hearing and adopt a resoluon iniang the amendments.

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan
26 Compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act The Fixur Roads Measure Expenditure Plan is not a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and, therefore, is exempt from CEQA review. The Plan is designed to provide a funding mechanism for potenal future projects and programs related to the Authority’s provision of transportaon funding and services.

All required state and federal environmental reviews must be completed before any specic projects can receive future approval.

Ci;zen Oversight CommiYee
The Cizenversight CommiZee (CC) was an accountability measure established as a part of the 2006 Measure C Program. That CommiZee’s eorts have helped analyze local agency conformance to Expenditure Plan requirements. Each year, theirndings are an essenal part of the Measure C Annual Report. This proposed Measure will connue the CC's eorts with several key changes to enhance local agency accountability for Fix ur Roads Measure funds and to ensure that all CC seats arelled throughout the Measure's duraon.

CC responsibilies generally include the following:
ü Receive, review, inspect, and recommend acon on independentnancial and performance audits related to the planning and implementaon of the Fixur Roads Measure program. ü Receive, review, and recommend acon on other periodic reports, studies, and plans from responsible agencies, including the Authority, Fresno CG, the Cies, the County, or other agencies. Such reports, studies, and plans must be directly related to Fixur Roads Measure programs, revenues, or expenditures. ü Review and comment upon Fixur Roads Measure expenditures to ensure that they are consistent with the Expenditure Plan.
ü Annually review how sales tax receipts are being spent and publicize the results. ü Present commiZee recommendaons,ndings, and requests to the public and the Authority in a formal annual report.

The Implemenng Procedures provide addional details on the CC, including administrave maZers and membership selecon requirements.

Independent Financial Audits
Currently, the Authority annually commissions independentnancial audits of the Measure C programs and receipts. The Authority will connue to conduct independentnancial audits under the Fixur Roads Measure.

Bonding
The Authority will have the opon to issue bonds to deliver Fixur Roads Measure projects and programs contained in this Plan, thereby saving project costs by delivering them earlier and providing Fresno County residents with much-needed road repairs years sooner than would be possible without bonding. Furthermore, local agencies receiving these Measure funds may also bond against these funds under their own authority, subject to FCTA Board approval, provided that it is a viable strategy for them and they have the bonding capacity.

Expenditure Plan Renewal
An Expenditure Plan Renewal process is expected to commence aOer the year 2040, providing ampleme to analyze future transportaon needs (beyond the year 2047), and prepare and approve the Renewal Expenditure Plan. Thismeframe will ensure that the Plan addresses the future transportaon needs of the county and its residents as determined through a comprehensive public engagement process. Renewal may be accomplished through the process delineated in the enabling legislaon, or by a subsequent Cizens Iniave.

27 The Renewal Plan should be placed on a ballot for voter approval prior to the expiraon of this Fixur Roads Measure Expenditure Plan on June 30, 2047. It is assumed that transportaon needs beyond 2047 will warrant addional Measure funding.

Impact
The Fixur Roads Measure provides a long-range plan to improve, enhance, and maintain all elements of our transportaon system in Fresno County. In addion, it will provide good paying long-term jobs for residents of the county and its cies. The Measure includes language encouraging project sponsors to include local hiring preferences in their contracts.

Studies show that construcon projects not only provide well-paying jobs with benets, but they also have a mulplying eect. The Economic Policy Instute prepared labor stascs by sector that show that for every $1,000,000 in construcon, 5.5 direct jobs are generated. The Fixur Roads Measure will provide direct and indirect benets to all Fresno County residents.

Building on the success of the previous two Measure C programs that have signicantly enhanced mobility throughout Fresno County over the past 40 years, this upcoming Fixur Roads Measure program is also ancipated to follow the guiding principle of “ Promises Made, Promises Kept .” With a strong track record of delivering posive outcomes and fostering community growth, this iniave aims to further improve transportaon opons and infrastructure while ensuring commitments to the public are honored.

Implementing Procedures

General Procedures
Measure C has been Fresno County’s transportation improvementegacy, dating bacto 1986, 40 years ofeeping promises to voters to improve transportation throughout Fresno County. Measure C wiexpire Juy 1, 2027.

Athough noonger designated “Measure C,” this initiative intends to continue thategacy.

This “Fix Our Roads Fresno County Transportation Improvement Measure” (hereinafter “Fix Our Roads Measure”) -- wifocus on Fresno County voters’ highest priorities:
ü Fix existing roads
ü Reduce congestion
ü Eiminate bottenecs
ü Improve vehice, bicyce, and pedestrian safety, incuding safe routes to schoos ü Provide good-paying jobs
ü Improve farm to maret and other goods movement within the county, the state, and the nation ü Keep transit fares affordabe for students, peope with disabiities, and seniors. ü Maintain transit services for those who depend upon them ü Improve air quaity and meet cimate goas without sacrificing mobiity These Impementing Procedures have been prepared to guide the impementation of the Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Pan. The Expenditure Pan was prepared to specify how approximatey $3.9 biion in transportation funds generated by a continuation of Fresno County’s haf-cent transportation saes tax over the next 20 years wibe aocated to various transportation programs. Specificay, these Procedures wiensure that promises made to Fresno County voters areept through requirements taiored to each Expenditure Pan program.

Foowing voter approvaof the Expenditure Pan and these Procedures, beginning in 2027 and every two (2) years thereafter, the Fix Our Roads Measure Strategic Impementation Pan (SIP) wibe prepared by, or under the direction of, the Fresno County Transportation Authority (FCTA or Authority). The SIP wifurther detai impementation requirements, provide more specifics regarding actuaFix Our Roads Measure proceeds by program, amendments to these Procedures, reporting, monitoring, caims, and disbursement processes, and carify project eigibiity, performance indicators and measures. The Impementing Procedures wiprovide the Authority, the Fresno Counciof Governments (Fresno COG), the sixteen (16)ocaagencies within Fresno County, and other responsibe agencies with information, incuding the foowing:

Administration funds areimited to 1% of the overaFix Our Roads Measure Program and are deducted from program funding before it is cacuated. Program Administration is expected to receive $43 miion over the 20- year period.

Program Management
Managing projects and programs wirequire substantiay more monitoring, anaysis, and reporting than the current Measure. Refer to the Program Management section of the Expenditure Pan for detais on these responsibiities.

Performance Indicators and Measurements
Authority staff wiworwith each of the sixteenocaagencies, as weas other interested agencies and individuas, to deveop performance measures specific to each Measure program. These Procedures incude the identification of performance measures and indicators for each Fix Our Roads Measure program.

Data coection wibeey to measuring performance and evauating trends. Transportation data wiaso be usefufor agencies or groups invoved in transportation research. In addition to the data coected for performance indicators and measures, the SIP wiincude other data requirements. Aagencies receiving Fix Our Roads Measure funds wiaccommodate any data requests identified in the SIP.

Reporting Requirements
ü Agencies wisubmit to the Authority on an annuabasis theist of competed projects that utiized the Fix Our Roads Measure program funding for some or aof the project costs. ü Agencies that utiize some or aof the Fix Our Roads Measure funds for services (rather than projects) wiidentify how these funds were used as a part of their annuareport to the Authority. ü Agencies wiidentify how manyocajobs were generated by their Program 1 and Program 2 projects.

Responsibe agencies wiaso report the number ofocajobs generated by their Subprogram 1.3 projects. ü Other required reporting and monitoring requirements wibe incuded in the RenewaStrategic Impementation Pan (SIP).
ü Transit agencies wisubmit a summary of their annuabudgets to FCTA with a breadown between transit operations and transit capita.

The schedue for submittaof this information wibe provided in the Strategic Impementation Pan (SIP) as described esewhere in this document.

Agency Responsibility for Fix Our Roads Measure Funding Recognition Continued taxpayer support for saes tax-funded transportation improvements is criticato the success of any subsequent transportation measure. It is therefore essentiathat each agency prominenty recognize the Fix Our Roads Measure’s contribution to any project funded in whoe or in part by the Fix Our Roads Measure. These

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan – Implementing Procedures 4 requirements wibe detaied in the Impementing Procedures and the Strategic Impementation Pan (SIP). At a minimum, this recognition must incude appropriate signage at each projectocation that identifies Measure’s funding participation. The minimum sign dimensions shabe 120 inches by 72 inches. The SIP wicontain more detaied sign specifications.

Press conferences and groundbreaing and ribbon-cutting ceremonies are highy encouraged, and the FCTA outreach team wibe avaiabe to assist with coordination. FCTA and Fresno COG must be invited to participate in any of these activities.

Each agency must provide before and after photos of the project area, incuding the Fix Our Roads Measureogo on aproject and program materias, equipment (road maintenance, transit buses, etc.), sociamedia posts, press reeases, projecteepsaes, and provide this data to the FCTA outreach team for Fix Our Roads Measure’s annua report. Faiure to meet these requirements within the timeines specified in the SIP may resut in suspension of Fix Our Roads Measure funding untithe requirements are met.

Local Hiring Preference
Fix Our Roads Measure funded projects provide direct and indirect economic benefits to the County through investments in infrastructure and reated economic activities associated with construction projects. The Fix Our Roads Measure projects wiprovide good-paying jobs to Fresno County businesses and residents. FCTA and Fresno COG, woring in connection with the member agencies, wideveop reasonabeocahiring and contracting goas to hep ensure those benefits are maximized. These goas wibe incuded in the Fix Our Roads Measure Strategic Impementation Pan. Agencies receiving Fix Our Roads Measure funds wiincude statistics on ocajobs created as a part of their annuareporting requirements.

Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan Programs
The Expenditure Pan provides significant funding for two programs: Fix LocaRoads and Transit Services. ü PROGRAM 1 – Fix Local Roads (82%) $3.2B
• Subprogram 1.1,Repair Roads, wireceive 50% ($1.9B) of overaFix Our Roads Measure funds, which wibe dedicated to repairing streets and roads in a fikeen (15) incorporated cies and the rura unincorporated areas of Fresno County.
• Subprogram 1.2,Improve Local Transportaon, wireceive 16% ($624M) of overaFix Our Roads Measure funds, which wiprovide revenue to the sixteenocaagencies to improve their transportaon systems, incuding road improvements, bicyce and pedestrian improvements, and suppemenng pubic transit.
• Subprogram 1.3,Major Streets and Highways – Improve Safety/Reduce Congeson, wireceive 16% ($624M) of overaFix Our Roads Measure revenues, which wiimprove safety, reduce congeson, eiminate bolenecs, and provide other benefits onocamajor streets, roads, and highways. within Fresno County.

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan – Implementing Procedures 5 ü PROGRAM 2 – Transit Reimagined (18%) $703M
Program 2 wimaintain the currenteveof transit services throughout the County and support studies aimed at "Reimagining Transit" within the Fresno-Covis Metropoitan Area (FCMA) and the County's rura areas.
• Subprogram 2.1, Transit Services, wireceive 17.90% ($698M) of the overaFix Our Roads Measure funding, which wisustain the transit services provided by Fresno FAX, Covis Transit, and Fresno County RuraTransit Agency. This subprogram wiaso provide funds to study the consoidaon of the three transit agencies. Whie these funds are sufficient to fund current operaons, the three transit agencies shoud mae efforts to reduce their per-trip costs and overaoperang budgets. • Subprogram 2.2, Transit Reimagined, wireceive 0.10% ($4M) to fund a study to determine methods to enhance transportaon souons taiored to both urban and ruraareas, whie improving efficiency andowering per-trip costs.

Capital Improvement Plan Requirements
Each agency receiving Fix Our Roads Measure funding wideveop a 5-year CapitaImprovement Pan (CIP). These CIPs wibe updated annuay and wiincude each project funded in whoe or in part with Fix Our Roads Measure funds for Programs 1 and 2. CIPs wibe submitted for approvaby each agency’s governing body as a part of the annuabudget process. Amendments to CIPs must foow the same procedures used by each agency for budget amendments. Agencies wiincude any Fix Our Roads Measure sef-performed projects within their CIP.

Program 1 -- Fix Local Roads Program
TheFix Local RoadsProgram is intended to fix roads, improveocatransportation, reduce congestion, and improve safety on major streets and highways through three subprograms:
ü Repair Roads
ü Improve LocaTransportation
ü Major Streets and Highway -- Improve Safety/Reduce Congestion Subprogram 1.1 – Repair Roads
Purpose
The purpose of this Subprogram is to bring the road systems within afifteen of the incorporated cities and the ruraunincorporated areas of Fresno County, incuding arterias, coectors, and neighborhood streets, to an average Pavement Condition Index (PCI) of 75, which is within the “Good” category as measured by engineers through a Pavement Management System (PMS). A PMS is defined as a set of procedures for coecting, anayzing, maintaining, and reporting pavement data, which is used to assist decision maers in finding optimum strategies for maintaining pavements in serviceabe condition over a given period of time for theeast cost.

A road system in “Good” condition is very economicato maintain with a 2022 estimated cost of $4.95 per square yard (SY) of pavement. Aowing our road system to remain in Fair or Poor condition has a much higher cost of $24.20 to $66 per SY.

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan – Implementing Procedures 6 Eligible Agencies
Eigibiity isimited to the fifteen incorporated cities and Fresno County. Distribution of these funds is based on estimation of popuation and road mies. Fresno COG and FCTA wibe eigibe for the costs associated with performing the trienniaPavement Management System surveys and reports. Private roads are not eigibe.

Program Implementation
Each agency must determine how to manage its road systems using a combination of road repair and preventative maintenance strategies. To assist with that effort, a trienniacountywide pavement condition survey (PCS) wibe conducted, with the resuts furnished to each agency1. Funding for these surveys wicome from the Repair Roads Subprogram. Within the first 12 months after passage, each agency must deveop a Pavement Management Poicy (PMP). This PMP must be approved by the agency’s governing body and wiincude a reaistic 3-year target for PCI improvement, as weas identification of how much funding wibe used for pavement repair and how much wigo toward pavement preservation. Agencies must not adopt a “worst-first” strategy for pavement repair; they must aso focus on preventing good roads from faiing. Actuaaocations may vary year to year depending on circumstances. Agencies wiupdate their PMP every 3 years, coinciding with the Pavement Condition Survey. The deveopment and impementation of pavement repair strategies are eigibe expenses under this Repair Roads Subprogram.

Agencies wiincude road repair projects in their 5-year CapitaOutay Improvement Pan, incuding any sef- performed pavement repair or maintenance activities. These 5-year CapitaImprovement Programs wibe submitted to FCTA as they are updated.

The FCTA Board wiuse the PMP, CIP, and the trienniapavement survey to evauate progress towards the 75 PCI goa.

Independent financiaaudits of the Repair Roads Subprogram wibe performed annuay to verify that funds were expended consistent with these Subprogram requirements. Agencies found to be out of compiance may be subject to withhoding of Subprogram funds untiappropriate reimbursements are made.

Every 3 years, there wibe a compiance evauation where jurisdictions must show how they have spent their Repair Roads funding; however, agencies are aowed to accumuate funds for up to 6 years if needed for match purposes or for aarge project.

If an agency is not in compiance with the 6-year requirement, the Authority may withhod funds untithe jurisdiction is compiant. Repeated non-compiance may be subject to reaocation of funds as determined by the Authority Board.

Performance Indicators
Performance indicators incude, but are notimited to, the foowing:
ü Pavement Condition Index (PCI).
ü Funds expended consistent with the Repair Roads Subprogram requirements. ü Percentage of funds expended in disadvantaged areas.
ü Amount of funds bonded and advanced.
ü Lane mies paved by cassification (arteria, coector, neighborhood street). 1 Agencies may perform their own pavement survey.

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan – Implementing Procedures 7 ü Timey use of funds.
ü Matching funds obtained.

Deveopment of actuaperformance measures wibe accompished through the Strategic Impementation Pan (SIP) as described esewhere in this document and the Expenditure Pan.

Definitions
A substantiaportion of the funding within the Repair Roads subprogram must be utiized excusivey for street maintenance, repair, or rehabiitation, which are defined by Assemby Bi(AB) 2928anguage forocaagency aocations under Proposition 42:
ü Funds allocated to a city, county.... shall be used only for street and highway maintenance, rehabilitation, reconstruction, and storm damage repair. For purposes of this section, the following terms have the following meanings:
Ÿ "Maintenance" means either or both of the following:
§ Patching.
§ Overlay and sealing.
Ÿ "Reconstruction" includes any overlay, sealing, or widening of the roadway, if the widening is necessary to bring the roadway width to the desirable minimum width consistent with the geometric design criteria of the department for 3-R (reconstruction, resurfacing, and rehabilitation) projects that are not on a freeway but does not include widening for the purpose of increasing the traffic capacity of a street or highway.
Ÿ "Storm damage repair" is the repair or reconstruction of local streets and highways and related drainage improvements that have been damaged due to winter storms and flooding, and reconstruction of drainage improvements to mitigate future roadway flooding and damage problems, in those jurisdictions that have been declared disaster areas by the President of the United States.

The Repair Roads Subprogram funds areimited to repairs and maintenance on the existing roadway and shouder structurasection. Repairs to the adjacent curb and gutter can be incuded where necessary to maintain proper street drainage. Repairs to existing pubic sidewas may be incuded in adjacent street repairs, provided the repairs are necessary to address ADA path-of-traveor pedestrian-safety issues associated with tree-damaged sidewas. Said sidewarepairs cannot exceed 20% of the overacost of the street repair project. Instaation of new sidewas, bieanes, or curbs and gutters is not eigibe under this Subprogram. However, other funding sources, incuding non- Measure funding or Fix Our Roads Measure Subprogram 1.2 funding, can be combined with these Repair Roads subprogram funds to address the entire roadway prism under one project. It is highy recommended that this “combined funding” approach be used whenever feasibe to provide the best overa compete street system for neighborhoods and reduce costs by combining worunder a singe contract.

Roadway restriping to repurpose existing trave anes for bicyce faciities as part of a pavement repair project is aowabe, provided it does not increase the overapaved width.

Funding Allocation
The Repair Roads Subprogram consists of 50% of the overaFix Our Roads Measure Program, or $1.9 biion. The Authority Board wiconsider bonding future revenues to acceerate the repair effort, with the goaof meeting the target PCI as soon as possibe, and wiencourageocaagencies to consider bonding or borrowing options to advance this wor.

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan – Implementing Procedures 8 ü Funding Aocation Process:
• A minimum base of $425,000 per year shabe aocated to each agency, and then the annua popuation / road mie formua woud be appied to determine the totafunding aocation byoca agency under this Subprogram.

Other Requirements
ü Maintenance of Effort Requirements:

The Measure C Enabling Legislation and Public Utilities Code Section 180000incude provisions reated to Maintenance of Effort. These same requirements must be adhered to byocaagencies as they impement their transportation improvement programs. Provisions incude:

8.01 It is the intent of the Legisature and the Authority that revenues provided from this Ordinance be used to suppement existing revenues being used for transportation projects, improvements, and programs.

8.02 Pursuant to the intent of the Pubic Utiities Code section 180001, a jurisdiction cannot redirect monies currenty being used for transportation purposes to other uses and then repace the redirected funds withocastreet maintenance and improvement doars from the retaitransaction and use tax.

8.03 To meet the requirements of stateaw, to receive LocaStreets and Roads funds, a jurisdiction must demonstrate maintenance of a minimumeveofocastreet and road expenditures in conformance with the provision beow:

8.03.01 Annuaexpenditures of aocajurisdiction’s generafunds for transportation purposes shanot be an amountess than the jurisdiction’s three-year average of its annua expenditures from its generafund during the prior three fiscayears. In cacuating the three- year average annuagenerafund expenditures, any unrestricted funds that the ocajurisdiction may expend at its discretion, expended for transportation purposes, are expenditures from the generafund.

8.03.02 Subject to Authority approva, if anyocajurisdiction had extraordinaryocadiscretionary fund expenditures during any fiscayear, it may determine that year’s minimum expenditure baseeveofocadiscretionary funds by:
a. Subtracting those extraordinary expenses (incuding assessment district contributions, deveopment impact funds, or other non-recurring contributions) from its totaexpenditures; or
b. Petitioning the Authority for speciaconsideration. Aocajurisdiction may need to revise its minimum expenditure base beyond the subtraction of extraordinary expenses. In this instance, the Authority may aow the estabishment of a new base for that jurisdiction’s Maintenance of Effort requirement. Aocajurisdiction petitioning the Authority under this provision must suppy evidence of the need for speciaconsideration, and a majority vote of the Authority must approve the petition.

8.04 An annuaindependent report wibe undertaen to verify that theocajurisdiction meets the Maintenance of Effort requirements. Anyocajurisdiction that does not meet its Maintenance of Effort requirement in any given year may have its Improve LocaTransportation fund received pursuant to the Expenditure Pan reduced in the foowing year by the amount by which the jurisdiction did not meet its required Maintenance of Effort. Such funds shabe redistributed to the remaining eigibe jurisdictions.

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan – Implementing Procedures 9 Every agency that receives Repair Roads subprogram funding must aocate an appropriate percentage of its aocation to disadvantaged areas within its jurisdiction. Each agency must determine this through its CIP, as identified esewhere in these Procedures. The FCTA Board may review an agency’s disadvantaged areas funding determination.

Shoud the average PCI of the streets or roads within a jurisdiction either exceed 78, or theowest PCI on any street within the jurisdiction is 65 or higher, Road Repair Subprogram funds in excess of what is needed to maintain street conditions above a PCI of 78 may be utiized as Subprogram 1.2 or 1.3. Improvement funds.

Eligible Projects/Programs
ü Street and road maintenance for pubicy owned faciities (pavement and pothoe repair, drainage improvements, other reated improvements), incuding:
Ÿ Panning and environmentaanaysis.
Ÿ Conceptuaand preiminary engineering.
Ÿ Design engineering (PS&E).
Ÿ Right-of-way acquisition, support, and reocation.
Ÿ Utiities reocation.
Ÿ Construction (rehabiitation, maintenance, and/or reconstruction) of streets and roads, unpaved roads, and aeys.
Ÿ Inspection of construction engineering.
Ÿ Direct staff time (saary and benefits).

Ÿ Labor, materias, and equipment for dayabor.
Ÿ Pubic engagement and education programs.
Ÿ Appications of new technoogies.

Privatey owned streets and roads are not eigibe for funding under this Subprogram, nor are streets within a CFD or simiar mechanism.

Subprogram 1.2 – Improve Local Transportation
Introduction/Purpose
This Subprogram intends to recognize that:
ü Not every community in Fresno County has the same transportation needs. ü Transportation needs can change over time.
ü Locamatch funding is consistenty a requirement for transportation funding grant programs, and the arger the match, the more competitive grant appications typicay are. ü A 20-year Fix Our Roads Measure cannot predict aof the transportation needs within a community over that 20-year period; agencies need fexibiity to adapt to changing needs.

This Subprogram is intended to give the sixteenocaagencies in Fresno County fexibiity to respond to each of these situations. It is intended to aow each agency to determine how best to spend these transportation doars.

This subprogram consists of three categories:1.2.1 - Improve Streets & Roads, 1.2.2 - Public Transit, and 1.2.3 –

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan – Implementing Procedures 10 Bike & Pedestrian. Each category wibe described separatey, but it is up to each agency to determine how much of the overaSubprogram funding wibe aocated to each Category on an annuabasis. Each agency can use these Subprogram funds to suppement Subprogram 1.1, Road Repair, if those funds are insufficient in any given year.

The Categoriesisted beow encompass a range of projects and programs thatocaagencies may choose to fund with Fix Our Roads Measure aocations. It is essentiafor these agencies to adhere to the estabished procedures and requirements detaied in the foowing sections. Compiance with these guideines ensures the effective and responsibe use of resources to benefit the community.

Implementing Agencies
Improve LocaTransportation Subprogram proceeds wibe aocated to each of the fifteen incorporated cities and Fresno County.

Subprogram Disbursement Process/Requirements
ü Funding Aocation Process:
• Aocations made by the Authority to theocaagencies wibe based on the approved annua popuation / road mies estimate.
ü Incusion of Projects in Approved Budget or Reated Program:
Ÿ Improve LocaTransportation Subprogram projects or programs shabe incuded in theocaagencies' five-year CapitaImprovement Program (CIP) and annuabudget.

Improve LocaTransportation Subprogram funds utiized for projects or services contained within one of the other Fix Our Roads Measure programs wiaso foow the same monitoring, reporting, and performance criteria estabished through these Impementing Procedures for those programs.

Whie not specificay incuded within the Subprogram 1.2ist of eigibe projects,ocaagencies may utiize these funds forocaairport improvements.

Category 1.2.1 - Improve Local Streets & Roads

Category 1.2.2 - Public Transit
Overview/Purpose
Pubic Transit is fuy funded through the Transit Reimagined Subprogram. However, an agency may use Subprogram 1.2 funding to cover temporary funding shortfas or to assist with impementing transit service aternatives identified through the Transit Reimagined Study (Subprogram 2.2).

SeeSubprogram 2.2 -- Transit Reimaginedfor detais on Impementing Agencies, Subprogram Disbursement, Eigibe Projects/Programs, and Performance Indicators
Category 1.2.3: Bike and Pedestrian
Overview/Purpose
The purpose of the Bie and Pedestrian Category is to provide matching funding for bie, pedestrian, and trai faciities and services, and safe routes to schoos that wiincrease safety, reduce automobie trips and vehice mies traveed (VMT), thereby improving air quaity, reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and improving heath. Improvements to existing and panned pedestrian, trai, and bicyce systems have gained prominence across the State and in Fresno County. There are significant opportunities to fund these types of projects with State and federafunds. Fix Our Roads Measure funding wiprovide additionaopportunities for theocaagencies toeverage State and federafunds.

Implementing Agencies
Each of the sixteen agencies in Fresno County is eigibe for this Category.

The 2006 Measure C required that eachocaagency deveop and maintain an Active Transportation Pan (ATP) for its jurisdiction. The Fix Our Roads Measure wirequire reguar updates of these ATPs, which wiserve as the basis for funding these types of projects within the sixteen jurisdictions.

Funds from this Category can be utiized to improve bie & pedestrian mobiity and safety, with a speciaemphasis on Safe Routes to Schoos and Americans with Disabiities Act (ADA) improvements. Fresno COG wiprepare the RegionaActive Transportation Pan (ATP), and FCTA wideveop and appy performance indicators and measures.

Fresno COG wireceive periodic funding to update the RegionaActive Transportation Pan.

Matching Funds Requirement
Significant opportunities exist for obtaining matching funds for Active Transportation Projects. It is essentiathat aagencies that receive Fix Our Roads Measure funding aggressivey pursue obtaining matching funds. Fresno COG can provide grant writing assistance to any agency unabe to perform this worin-house. Any ATP-type

Ÿ Faciities buit and maintained by the State of Caifornia, and projects that are either for routine maintenance or traffic safety purposes, are exempt from this requirement; however, Catrans shoud be encouraged to impement these features where feasibe and consistent with Catrans reguations. Ÿ Expressways constructed in an urban area can meet this requirement by incuding a sidewa, paths, waways, or equivaent faciity on one side of the roadway. ü New Bicyce Faciities:
Ÿ Every highway, expressway, super-arteria, arteria, or coector within the County constructed in whoe or in part with Fix Our Roads Measure funds shaincude accommodations for bicyce traveby a striped shouder with a minimum width of four feet (4’). This 4’ shouder may be provided as a bie ane2. If an existing highway, expressway, super-arteria, or coector is reconstructed and said reconstruction incudes pavement widening, that project wiaso be subject to this requirement.

Reconstruction projects accompished excusivey through the Repair Roads Subprogram are exempt from this requirement. However, agencies are encouraged to utiize other funding sources to provide these bicyce faciities where none currenty exist.

Purpose
The Major Streets and Highways – Improve Safety/Reduce Congestion Subprogram identifies priority major street, road, and highway improvement projects to be impemented over theife of the Fix Our Roads Measure Program.

These projects wibe funded with Fix Our Roads Measure and/or other transportation funding. Projects within this program are generay considered regionain significance, or provide improved mobiity acrossarge urban areas.

Eligible Agencies
Eigibe agencies for this program incude the fifteen incorporated cities, Fresno County, Fresno COG, FCTA, and Catrans.

Subprogram Implementation
Impementing Agencies wibe designated for each Major Street and Highway project incuded on the Urban or RuraProject Lists before beginning project deveopment activities. The Impementing Agency wigeneray be the owner of the faciity; however, it may aso be the sponsoring agency for a project that is not a part of its system. The Authority may aso choose to serve as the Impementing Agency for a project invoving faciities owned by others. The owner of the faciity must agree to another agency assuming the roe of the Impementing Agency. A project’s Impementing Agency may vary by project phase.

Definitions
Projects within this Subprogram are generay on the Highway System, but are aso on majorocaarterias that serve more than one city or area of the county or provide improved mobiity acrossarge urban areas.

Eligible Project Lists
This Expenditure Pan contains Tier 1 Urban and RuraProjectists for the Major Streets and Highways – Improve Safety/Reduce Congestion Subprogram (reference Tabes 4 and 5 of the Expenditure Pan). The Tier 1 projects are priority projects that woud be programmed for the Fix Our Roads Measure and other funding over theife of the Measure. Tier 2 projects are unfunded, but may be eigibe for funding if additionaMeasure funding or other unidentified funding becomes avaiabe after Tier 1 projects are deivered. Refer to the Expenditure Pan for further information on Tier 2 project funding eigibiity.

Matching funds woud be avaiabe on a one-for-one basis to secure Catrans funding for increaseditter abatement activities. One-haf of the matching funds woud come from Subprogram 1.3 -- Major Streets and Highways – Improve Safety/Reduce Congestion, and one-haf woud come from any Fix Our Roads Measure eigibe agency that chooses to participate in the program. Subprogram 1.2 -- Improve LocaTransportation may be utiized to provide theocaagency matching funds. Any agency requesting Litter Abatement funding wibe responsibe for coordinating and impementing abatement activities.

FCTA must mae a finding that sufficient revenues exist within the Major Streets and Highways – Improve Safety/Reduce Congestion Subprogram before authorizing Litter Abatement funding aocations.

Funding Allocations
Each Impementing Agency wirequest project funding from the Authority, which wibe provided through a Cooperative Funding Agreement. These agreements wiaocate funding for the initiaproject phase(s). As the project progresses and additionafunding is necessary to proceed to subsequent phases, the agreement wibe amended to refect the additionacosts. Afunding agreements reimburse Impementing Agencies for funds expended. The agreements do not provide agencies with advanced funding.

Other Requirements
Impementing Agencies wibe required to report project progress to the Authority on an ongoing basis. The Impementing Agency must thoroughy justify projects requiring cost increases not associated with subsequent project phases. A funding agreement amendment must be approved prior to expending funds beyond the approved project budget.

Impementing Agencies wifurnish, insta, and maintain project funding signage recognizing the Fix Our Roads Measure funding contribution. Detais of said signage are incuded in these Procedures underGeneral Procedures - Agency Responsibility for Fix Our Roads Measure Funding Recognition,and wibe contained in the SIP.

Program 2 – Transit Reimagined
The Transit Reimagined Program is intended to provide funding for pubic transit programs that provide enhanced mobiity options for seniors, peope with disabiities, and other transit-dependent individuas, encourage peope to minimize singe-occupancy vehice trips, and improve air quaity.

Improvements to existing and panned transit services have gained prominence throughout the State and in Fresno County. There are significant opportunities to fund pubic transit improvements using State and federa funds. The Fix Our Roads Measure Subprogram 1.2 aocation wiprovide additionaopportunities for theoca agencies toeverage State and federafunding.

Highights of the Program incude two Subprograms: Subprogram 2.1 – Transit Services, and Subprogram 2.2 – Reimagined Transit. Subprogram 2.1 funding wimaintain the currenteveof transit services throughout the County. The Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Pan incudes provisions for two transit studies:

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan – Implementing Procedures 20 1. Transit Agency Consolidation Study
The Consoidation Study wifocus on the feasibiity, cost savings, and service improvements that coud be achieved through the consoidation of the three transit agencies in Fresno County.

2. Reimagine Transit Services Study.

The Reimagine Transit Study wiincude an evauation of transit service options avaiabe wordwide and recommendations on how transit “best practices” can be utiized here in Fresno County. This study wi not focus soey on improving the current fixed route services, but wiaso examine aternative mobiity options to increase service avaiabiity, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.

These studies are expected to be competed within approximatey two years after the Measure taes effect, or by December 31, 2029. Whie these are independent studies, they must be coordinated as the resuts of one may affect the other. Once the studies are compete, the resuts wibe evauated, and Subprogram 2.1 wibe reassessed to determine how to aocate funding for transit services within the County between 2030 and 2047.

These Studies are further deineated in the Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Pan.

The Authority may grant an extension of these deadines.

Implementing Agencies

2026 Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Plan – Implementing Procedures 22 Performance Indicators
To ensure that Fix Our Roads Measure funds are aocated to effective programs that provide better service at ower cost, projects, programs, and services wibe evauated in accordance with the performance indicators and measures process noted beow. Deveopment of actuaperformance measures wibe accompished through the SIP as described beow.

Urban and RuraPubic Transit Operators are required by Caifornia stateaw to undergo transit performance audits every three (3) years. In genera, there are six (6) transit performance indicators used to assess how effectivey and efficienty a transit operator operates from a fiscaperspective. Those six (6) performance indicators are:
ü Operating cost.
ü Fare revenues.
ü Vehice service hours.
ü Vehice service mies.
ü Number of passengers.
ü Number of empoyees.

There are aso nine (9) transit performance measures, which are derived from these indicators:
ü Operating cost per passenger.
ü Operating cost per vehice service hour.
ü Operating cost per vehice service mie.
ü Passengers per vehice service hour.
ü Passengers per vehice service mie.
ü Farebox ratio.
ü Vehice service hours per empoyee.
ü Vehice service mies per vehice service hours.
ü Fare per passenger.

The resuts of these transit performance measures vary significanty between the urban and ruratransit operators, as their service areas and customer base are unique. As a resut, it wibe necessary to deveop detaied transit performance measures within the Strategic Impementation Pan (SIP) that wiserve as a companion impementation document to the Fix Our Roads Measure Expenditure Pan and to these Procedures. To ensure the deveopment of high-quaity performance measures for pubic transit, it is envisioned that FCTA or Fresno COG retain the services of professionaconsutants to deveop them. These and other indicators, criteria, or objectives wibe taen into consideration when deveoping performance measures to evauate the Transit Reimagined Program.
