OUNCIL ADOPTED VALUES
The Town of Colma Local Roadway and Safety Plan is visionary , it allows the Town to stay compliant and in line with San Mateo County’s roadway safety plan and the Town’s goals for safe streets for all modes of transportation.

BA

CKGROUND
A Comprehensive Safety Action Plan, also known as a Local Roadway Safety Plans (LRSP), identifies and systematically analyzes roadway safety needs and develops a prioritized list of safety countermeasures (specific actions or improvement to reduce the number and severity of crashed). A CSAP offers a proactive approach to addressing safety needs and demonstrates agency's commitment to addressing safety challenges through local partnerships and collaboration.

In 2018, the Town conducted a comprehensive Systemic Safety Analysis Report (SSAR), or Comprehensive Safety Action Plan (CSAP) to identify potential improvements for roadway AGENDA ITEM #5
Staff Report – SS4A Planning and Demonstration Grant for Colma Comprehensive Safety Action Plan and Speed Management Page 2 of 4 safety. The study analyzed reported crash data, including pedestrian and bicyclist incidents, and evaluated road characteristics using a systemic approach. Based on these findings, the SSAR recommended various countermeasures to enhance safety performance.

In 2024, the City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County (C/CAG) developed a Countywide LRSP to enhance the safety of motorist bicyclist and pedestrian on local street and roads throughout San Mateo County. The Countywide Plan is divided into two parts. The first part contains the Countywide LRSP, and the second part contains individual LRSPs from ten participating agencies, including Town of Colma. This plan was formally adopted by the C/CAG Board on June 13, 2024, followed by the Town of Colma on October 23, 2024, as a necessary step to become eligible for safety funding from USDOT, Caltrans, and other sources. It is also important to note that our 2018 SSAR has and continues to be one of the main documents that has brought in several million dollars of local, state and federal grant funding.

Detailed Description of the Project
The Town of Colma will update its existing SSAR to develop a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan (CSAP), including a Speed Management Program. This new CSAP will address the eight key components required for an SS4A Action Plan as follows:
1) Leadership Commitment and Goal Setting: Securing a commitment from elected officials and decision-makers to achieve zero traffic deaths and severe injuries; 2) Planning Structure: Establishing a Steering Committee including Town Departments, the County, the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), Caltrans, and law enforcement to provide technical guidance;
3) Engagement and Collaboration: Conducting a robust analysis of High Injury Network (HIN) and systemic safety issues, with a focus on all modes of transportation; 4) Equity Consideration: Engaging the community through diverse digital and in-person methods, with a specific focus on reaching underserved communities, including commuters;
5) Engagement strategy for underserved communities, including the commuter population, will be crafted;
6) Policy and Process Changes: Auditing current policies and programs to align with the goal of zero traffic deaths;
7) Strategy and Project Selections: Prioritizing project selection based on safety and equity, using proven safety countermeasures and best practices; and 8) Progress and Transparency: Creating and maintaining an online data dashboard to monitor progress, evaluate effectiveness, and ensure transparency.

Staff Report – SS4A Planning and Demonstration Grant for Colma Comprehensive Safety Action Plan and Speed Management Page 3 of 4 Additionally, the Plan includes a pilot project on Hillside Boulevard which will demonstrate the effectiveness of applying a Safe System Approach along the corridor.

AN
ALYSIS
The Federal Highway Administration and Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) have both committed to achieving Vision Zero, a goal of eliminating fatalities and serious injuries on the nation's roadways. The Federal Highway Administration is using a Safe System approach to achieve this goal, while MTC has adopted a policy supporting cities like those in San Mateo County in their pursuit of Vision Zero. Caltrans has also adopted a similar goal of moving “toward zero deaths” by incorporating the Safe System Approach and using proven effective strategies and countermeasures.

The Countywide Plan Vision Zero establishes a desired future condition for San Mateo County, one which is achievable only with collaborative efforts from all relevant agencies. As the lead agency in developing this plan, C/CAG envisions a County of diverse partners sharing resources and responsibility for maintaining a safe and equitable transportation system, with all agencies consistently working together to eliminate death and severe injury on roads countywide.

The Town of Colma Plan aligns with a Vision Zero approach. The Town’s vision for road safety is to eliminate all traffic fatalities and reduce the number of non-fatal crashes by 50 percent by 2040. This shared vision aims to significantly reduce fatal and severe injuries on Colma’s roads, ultimately working toward zero.

F

ISCAL IMPACT
The estimated cost for the Colma CSAP and Speed Management project is $300,000, of which 80% will be reimbursed by the SS4A federal funds for the work performed. The remaining 20% funds will be funded by the Town as Local Match as follows:
• Proposed CIP Allocation for FY 25-26 (Local Match): $ 60,000 • SS4A Planning and Demonstration Grant: $ 240,000
Estimated Project Total: $ 300,000
T
he Action Plan is the required foundation for securing future SS4A implementation grants. By adopting this plan, the Town updates its existing SSAR and significantly improves its eligibility for new funding opportunities. The plan must be kept consistent with proposed projects and must be updated every five years to maintain eligibility for funding.

T
he implementation of the Action Plan will require ongoing coordination and potential resource allocation, but the specific costs and funding sources will be determined on a project-by-project basis.

Staff Report – SS4A Planning and Demonstration Grant for Colma Comprehensive Safety Action Plan and Speed Management Page 4 of 4 There is one term within the agreement that needs to be highlighted. The specific Special Grant Terms incorporated in the Agreement state that, pursuant to the court's preliminary injunction order in State of California v. Duffy, 1:25-cv-00208-JJM-PAS (D.R.I.) (June 19, 2025), (Please see highlighted condition in Attachment “A” on page 8 of the funding agreement.) the USDOT will not impose or enforce the challenged immigration enforcement condition—which requires the recipient to cooperate with Federal officials. including cooperating with and not impeding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)"—or any materially similar terms and conditions against the Town. Furthermore, the USDOT will not require the Town to make any certification related to compliance with this challenged condition, nor will acceptance of funding be construed as such a certification, while USDOT is subject to the injunction.

Cu
rrently there is an injunction where the federal government cannot hold back funding if a jurisdiction wants to challenge illegal immigration enforcement. The issue is, how long will the injunction be in place and will the courts uphold this injunction to become a non-issue regarding this specific term in the funding agreement or if upheld. If the injunction fails, it appears that the Town would not run interference if a special department within the federal government wanted to enforce illegal immigration enforcement.

T
hough the recommendation is to approve the funding agreement, staff does want to solicit City Council’s direction on how to proceed with the approval of the funding agreement.

E

NVIRONMENTAL
The City Council’s action in adopting the resolution is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guideline 15306 as information collection or as part of a study leading to an action which a public agency has not yet approved, adopted, or funded. Any future construction improvements will only be considered after a CEQA review has been conducted.

AL

TERNATIVES
The City Council could choose not to adopt the resolution. Doing so is not recommended as the Town would lose the funding opportunity to update its CSAP. Without a current, certified CSAP, this would or could make the Town ineligible to apply for USDOT, Caltrans, and other funding opportunities.

CO

NCLUSION
Staff is requesting that City Council by Motion approve and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement with the United States Department of Transportation’s (USDOT) Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). This agreement would accept a $240,000 Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant to fund updates and enhancements to Colma's Comprehensive Safety Action Plan, including a Speed Management Program and a Demonstration Pilot Project.

CHANGES FROM APPLICATION
Describe all material differences between the scope, schedule, and budget described in the application and the scope, schedule, and budget described in Article 3. The purpose of Attachment B is to clearly and accurately document any differences in scope, schedule, and budget to establish the parties’ knowledge and acceptance of those differences. See Article 11 for the Statement of Work, Schedule, and Budget Changes. If there are no changes, please insert “N/A” after “Scope,” “Schedule,” or “Budget.” If there are changes to the budget, please complete the table below. Otherwise, leave the table below blank.

Scope: The proposed retroreflective backplates and Leading Pedestrian Intervals (LPS) proposed for the Demonstration Project on Hillside Boulevard were implemented before the grant award, so they have been removed from the original scope of the grant application. The remaining tasks remain unchanged.

Schedule: The initial project performance period in the Application was 12 months from the kickoff to the final design. However, following a USDOT recommendation to extend the project schedule, the Town has revised the project completion date to 7/1/2029.

Budget: With the above-mentioned revised project scope, the subtotal budget for Supplemental Planning Activities has been increased from $40,000 to $50,000 ($40,000 SS4A Federal Funds and $10,000 Non-Federal Match), while the subtotal tasks for the Demonstration Pilot Project decreased from $75,000 to $65,000 ($52,000 SS4A Federal Funds and $13,000 Non-Federal Match). The total budget for Planning and Demonstrations Activities remains at $300,000.

2. Supporting Narrative.

The Town of Colma proactively addresses physical and cyber security risks by embedding protective measures directly into every stage of our projects, from planning through design and oversight. We are boosting the security of our important infrastructure in several ways. For physical protection, we are adding better access control, surveillance, and backup systems to counter direct threats throughout the project lifecycle. On the cyber side, we use robust network divisions, implement strong encryption protocols, and select hardware and software with inherent security features for dealing with cyberattacks. We also train our staff regularly to be security-aware and share threat information with other agencies. This way, we can proactively tackle both physical and cyber risks, keeping our transportation systems safe.

The Town of Colma will comply with 2 CFR 200.216, the prohibition on certain telecommunications and video surveillance services or equipment, in relation to its SS4A Funding Agreement. To ensure this, the Town will include specific clauses in relevant contracts with vendors and subcontractors that explicitly prohibit the use of covered telecommunications equipment or services as defined in 2 CFR 200.216
