32 RESOLUTION NO. 2022-R

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

CULVER CITY, CALIFORNIA, AUTHORIZING THE CHIEF

TRANSPORTATION OFFICER TO SUBMIT APPLICATIONS

FOR VARIOUS GRANT FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES
IDENTIFIED THROUGH JUNE 30, 20 23 FOR
TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS.

WHEREAS, the Transportation Department applies for multiple grants for transportation projects and programs, on both a formula and competitive basis, as they are identified throughout the fiscal year. Grants provided by federal, State of California, and regional entities are all considered and utilized based on grant funding program objectives, department needs, and administrative capacity; and
WHEREAS, t he Transportation Department utilizes multiple sources as matching funds to meet cost -sharing requirements for such grants, none of which are supplied by the City’s general fund. Matching sources are comprised of local -return allocations from sales tax measures, State Transportation Development Act and Transportation Assistance funds, among other sources which comprise a patchwork of transit funding in Los Angeles County, the State of California as well as nationally; and WHEREAS, transit is uniquely vulnerable to downstream impacts of reductions in funds given the heavily subsidized nature of transit in the United St ates. Maintaining a proactive and nimble approach to sourcing funds is tantamount to maintaining service levels, while meeting the strategic objectives of electrification, increased ridership, and innovative service delivery in the face of funding constraints.
