Authorization of Applications for Upcoming 2022-2024 Call for Projects City Council Meeting | June 7, 2022
WHEREAS, staff recommends that the City Council authorize the Mayor to write letters in support of the Prioritized Projects since in most grant applications, extra points are granted to projects that show letters of support from the City, community and other stakeholders; and
WHEREAS, ACTC’s Small Cities Program exempts Emeryville, Albany, and Piedmont from match requirements and any additional matching funds from the City would result in extra points on the application; and
WHEREAS, the ATP Cycle 6 Guidelines state that, “(t)he Commission does not require a funding match for ATP.”; and
WHEREAS, ACTC funding for the General Benefit portion of Emery Go-Round operation will be matched by the Property Based Business Improvement District (PBID) component, giving the City an 87% match for extra points on that application; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Emeryville prioritizes and ranks the following projects as follows:
Emery Go-Round Operating Expenses (FY2023-FY2027)
Village Greens and Greenways Program – Doyle Street (Phase 3) Shellmound/Christie One-Way Loop Study
Stanford Corridor Enhancement Study
40th Street Transit-Only Lanes and Multimodal Enhancements; and, be it, further RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Emeryville hereby authorizes the City Manager to submit applications in response applications in response to the California Transportation Commission’s ATP Cycle 6 Call-for-Projects, Alameda County Transportation Commission’s 2024 CIP Call For Projects, and any other grant opportunities that arise in Fiscal Years 2022-2024 for the prioritized projects; and, be it, further
