DATE ISSUED:

FROM: Nick Wells, City Manager #
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 26-24 Adopting a 5-Year List of Projects to Comply with LTA Revenue Requirements
ISSUE:

Shall the City Council approve Resolution No. 26-24, adopting a master list of transportation projects which would be eligible for LTA funding?
DISCUSSION:

The Imperial County Local Transportation Authority Retail Transaction and Use Tax Expenditure Plan requires that Council approve the 5-year list of projects on an annual basis, which is the list of projects that then become eligible for funding using Measure D (LTA) Revenues. Although current specific projects are listed, a "catch-all" ("Citywide - Various Projects") is listed to include all potential projects to retain flexibility to use the funds for any transportation-related projects.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no direct fiscal impact, however, this action is a required component to receiving this source of transportation-specific funding.

CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council authorize the resolution as presented.

ALTERNATIVE:

Not to adopt the Resolution and forego receipt of these funds. 09/21/26

INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND
On August 20, 2025, the California Transportation Commission (CTC) adopted the final guidelines and fund distributions for the 2026 Local Partnership Program (LPP) for Fiscal Years 2027/28 and 2028/29.

The LPP was established via the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, or Senate Bill 1 (Beall, Chapter 5, Statutes of 2017). The act continuously appropriates two hundred million dollars ($200,000,000) annually to be allocated by the CTC to local or regional transportation agencies that have sought and received voter approval of taxes or that have imposed fees, which taxes or fees are dedicated solely for transportation improvements.

For the 2026 Program Cycle, the Imperial County Transportation Commission (ICTC) received $1,002,000 in program funding to be distributed among the eight Imperial County Jurisdictions. During an August 27, 2026 meeting, the ICTC Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) approved the distribution Meeting Date: September 21, 2026

plan for LPP formulaic funds. Under the approved distribution method, a flat allocation of $12,500 is allocated for each jurisdiction while the remaining funds are distributed based on each jurisdictions population and maintained mileage (Refer to Attachment B – LPP Funds Distribution). The following LPP funds are available for the City of Holtville:

Table 1 – LPP Flat Distribution Calculation

In 2025, the City of Holtville applied for funding from the Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) which was formulated to provide flexible federal funding that state and local agencies can use to address their highest-priority transportation needs. Subsequently after submittal, the City of Holtville was awarded $401,000 in STBG funds for the Cedar Avenue Rehabilitation Project between 4th Street and 5th Street. Part of the STBG program’s requirements is an 11.47% local match which totals $52,000. The City is proposing to utilize the $36,556.55 of LPP Formulaic funds to supplement the $52,000 local match mandated by the Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) for the Cedar Avenue Rehabilitation Project between 4th Street and 5th Street. The remaining local match balance will be covered through local Measure D funds while STBG funds will be used to cover the one-to-one local match required by LPP.

The purpose of this item is for the City to apply to receive LPP Formulaic funds in support of the Cedar Avenue Rehabilitation Project between 4th Street and 5th Street. After reviewing all pertinent documentation and considering all public comments, the City Council may motion to either adopt or not adopt a resolution authorizing the submittal of an LPP application (Refer to Attachment C – LPP Formulaic Guidelines).

PROJECT SCOPE
The Cedar Avenue Rehabilitation project consists of the complete rehabilitation of an approximate 600 foot long and 52-foot-wide segment of Cedar Avenue between 5th Street (State Highway 115) and 4th Street. The City of Holtville has been maintaining the pavement surface of this section periodically; however, this roadway section is overdue for rehabilitation as the maintenance treatment can no longer repair the roadway section due to the alligator cracks and pavement failures evident on the roadway surface. Construction is scheduled to begin in Fiscal Year 2027/28.

PENDING ACTION
After reviewing all pertinent information, the City Council may motion for one of the following actions:
• Adopt a resolution approving an application submission to obtain funding under the 2026 Local Partnership Program (LPP) for the Cedar Avenue Road Rehabilitation Project between 4th Street and 5th Street
or
• Not adopt a resolution for an application submission to obtain funding under the Local Partnership Program (LPP) for the Cedar Avenue Road Rehabilitation Project between 4th Street and 5th Street

Memorandum
To: CHAIR AND COMMISSIONERS CTC Meeting: August 20-21, 2026 From: TANISHA TAYLOR, Executive Director
Reference Number: 4.11, Action
Prepared By: Kayla Giese
Assistant Deputy Director
Published Date: August 7, 2026
Subject: 2026 Local Partnership Formulaic Program Guidelines Adoption, Resolution G-26-65 Recommendation:

Staff recommends the California Transportation Commission (Commission) adopt the proposed 2026 Local Partnership Formulaic Program Guidelines, included as Attachment B.

The adoption of the 2026 Local Partnership Formulaic Program Guidelines will initiate the call for projects for the upcoming program cycle, with initial Project Nominations due November 13, 2026.

Issue:

The 2026 Local Partnership Formulaic Program will provide two years of funding in Fiscal Years 2027-2028 and 2028-29, for a total of $216,000,000. The 2026 Local Partnership Formulaic Program represents the sixth cycle of the program.

Commission staff prepared the proposed 2026 Local Partnership Formulaic Program Guidelines (Attachment B) in consultation with the Interagency Equity Advisory Committee, California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), regional transportation planning agencies, local agencies, advocates, and other public stakeholders.

Following the initial Senate Bill 1 Programs kick-off workshop on November 20, 2025, the Commission hosted four additional public workshops through May 2026 to solicit stakeholder feedback to inform the draft guidelines. This included two program-specific workshops and two standalone workshops focused on workforce development considerations and advancing equity and community engagement across the Senate Bill 1 Programs. Workshop materials and recordings are posted on the Commission’s website. In addition, the Commission hosted 24 virtual office hour sessions from March 2026 to June 2026, where Commission staff provided technical assistance to applicants wanting to discuss their project nominations or funding eligibility for the 2026 Local Partnership Program.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION

CHAIR AND COMMISSIONERS Reference No.: 4.11
August 20-21, 2026

The initial draft 2026 Local Partnership Formulaic Program Guidelines were presented at the June 25-26, 2026, Commission meeting. Since then, Commission staff hosted two additional standalone workshops on July 15 which were focused on alternative delivery methods guidance included in all Senate Bill 1 Programs, and efficient land use and housing guidance included in the Local Partnership Competitive Program and the Solutions for Congested Corridors Program. The following updates were informed by public comment received at the July 2026 workshop and feedback from implementing agencies, and are each reflected as bolded, red font in Attachment B:

Delivery Methods
Part V, Sections 22
The Delivery Methods section was updated to clarify how the Commission programs and allocates funds for projects using alternative delivery methods including design-build, progressive design-build, and Construction Manager/General Contractor across SB 1 Programs. The updates confirm that projects using alternative delivery methods follow the existing programming and allocation process. These changes support timely and flexible project delivery while ensuring responsible expenditure of program funds committed by the Commission.

Background:

Senate Bill 1 (Chapter 5, Beall, Statutes of 2017) created the Local Partnership Program and authorized $200 million annually to fund the Program. This legislation requires the Commission, in consultation with Caltrans, regional transportation planning agencies, local agencies and other transportation stakeholders, to develop guidelines. Assembly Bill 115 (Chapter 20, Committee on Budget, Statutes of 2017) clarified Senate Bill 1 language regarding local and regional transportation agency eligibility and expanded the types of projects eligible for the program.

The Local Partnership Program provides funding to counties, cities, districts, and regional transportation agencies in which voters have approved fees, tolls, or taxes dedicated solely to transportation improvements or that have imposed fees, including uniform developer fees, dedicated solely to transportation improvements. Funding for the Local Partnership Program is divided into two programs: the Formulaic Program and the Competitive Program.

The 2026 Local Partnership Formulaic Program Guidelines describe the policy, standards, criteria, and procedures for the development, adoption, and management of the Local Partnership Formulaic Program. The guidelines address statutory requirements, incorporate partner feedback, and include Commission procedures for programming and project delivery.

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
I. INTRODUCTION

1. Purpose
The primary objective of the Local Partnership Program is to provide funding to counties, cities, districts, and regional transportation agencies in which voters have approved fees or taxes dedicated solely to transportation improvements or that have imposed fees, including uniform developer fees, dedicated solely to transportation improvements (as defined by Government Code Section 8879.67[b]). Consistent with SB 1, the Commission intends this program to balance the need to direct increased revenue to the state’s highest transportation needs while fairly distributing the economic impact of increased funding (SB 1 Section 1[l]).

2. Authority
The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, or SB 1 (Beall, Chapter 5, Statutes of 2017) established the Local Partnership Program and continuously appropriates two hundred million dollars ($200,000,000) annually to be allocated by the California Transportation Commission (Commission) to local or regional transportation agencies that have sought and received voter approval of taxes or that have imposed fees, which taxes or fees are dedicated solely for transportation improvements. The Local Partnership Program was subsequently amended by Assembly Bill (AB) 115 (Committee on Budget, Chapter 20, Statutes of 2017) and AB 135 (Committee on Budget, Chapter 255, Statutes of 2017).

The Local Partnership Program consists of a Formulaic Program and Competitive Program.

These guidelines describe the policy, standards, criteria, and procedures for the development, adoption and management of the Formulaic Program. The Commission may amend these guidelines after first giving notice of the proposed amendments and conducting at least one public hearing. The Commission will make a reasonable effort to amend the guidelines prior to a call for projects or may extend the deadline for project submission to comply with the amended guidelines.

Local Partnership Formulaic Program (Formulaic Program) guidelines were developed in consultation with the Interagency Equity Advisory Committee, California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), regional transportation planning agencies, county transportation commissions, local agencies, advocacy groups, and other stakeholders, pursuant to Streets and Highways Code Section 2033.

II. ELIGIBILITY

4. Eligible Applicants
An eligible applicant under the Formulaic Program is a local or regional transportation agency that has sought and received voter approval of taxes, tolls, or fees which taxes, tolls, or fees are dedicated solely to transportation improvements. To be eligible that agency must also administer those taxes, tolls, or fees.

5. Eligibility Verification
Taxing authorities that have established eligibility prior to the adoption of these guidelines are listed in Appendix C.

Taxing authorities with new voter-approved tax measures, tolls, or fees that are potentially eligible for the Formulaic Program, must notify the Commission no less than six weeks prior to any future formulaic funding distribution adoption.

To verify eligibility, a taxing authority must submit the following information to the Commission:
• A cover letter signed by the taxing authority’s Executive Director to affirm the taxes, tolls, or fees are dedicated solely to transportation improvements. • A copy of the ordinance or resolution seeking voter-approval of the tax, toll, or fee. • Ballot information.
• Election results (Official Statement of Votes Cast).
• For tolls, fees, and taxes other than sales taxes, a copy of the relevant section of the taxing authority’s most recent audited financial statements indicating the revenue generated by the tax, toll, or fee, including posting location on the internet and information about how the revenues are reported to the State.

Upon receipt of all required documentation, the Commission will conduct a review and notify the taxing authority of the Commission’s determination. The Commission may contact the taxing authority for additional information during the eligibility verification process.

Taxing authorities seeking verification of eligibility after adoption of the formulaic funding distribution must notify the Commission to be considered. If eligibility is established, an amendment to the funding distribution will be considered (refer to Section 10, Distribution).

6. Eligible Projects
Eligible projects for the Local Partnership Program will be consistent with subdivisions (a) and (b) of Government Code Section 8879.70, and Streets and Highways Code Section 2032(a).

The Commission encourages projects that align with the state’s climate and equity goals as CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 3

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
well as those that identify and incorporate the installation of conduit or fiber, where appropriate and feasible, along strategic corridors.

Eligible projects shall include the following:

G. Improvements to mitigate the environmental impact of new transportation infrastructure on a locality’s or region’s air quality or water quality, commonly known as “urban runoff,” including management practices for capturing or treating urban runoff.

H. For purposes of the Local Partnership Program, a separate phase or stage of construction for an eligible project may include mitigation of the project’s environmental impacts, including, but not limited to, sound walls, landscaping, wetlands or habitat restoration or creation, replacement plantings, and drainage facilities.

I. Sound walls for a freeway that was built prior to 1987 without sound walls and with or without high occupancy vehicle lanes if the completion of the sound walls has been deferred due to lack of available funding for at least 20 years and a noise barrier scope summary report has been completed within the last 20 years.

J. Road maintenance and rehabilitation.

K. Other transportation improvement projects.

As applicable by law, projects that propose to construct a tolled transportation facility must obtain Commission approval to operate the toll facility in accordance with the Commission’s Toll Facility Application Guidelines prior to the project being programmed in the Local Partnership Formulaic Program.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | PAGE 5

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
III. FUNDING

7. Funding and Programming Cycle
The Local Partnership Program receives $200 million annually from the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account and each program cycle will include two years of funding. The 2026 Local Partnership Program (Formulaic and Competitive) will include Fiscal Years 2027-28 and 2028-29. New cycles will be programmed every two years.

The Formulaic Incentive Funding of $20 million will be set aside each fiscal year from the Local Partnership Program leaving $180 million to be distributed annually, 60 percent via Formulaic and 40 percent via Competitive.

8. Funding Restrictions
The Formulaic Program shall fund:
• Any phase of a capital project (Project Approval and Environmental Document; Plans, Specifications, and Estimate; Right-of-Way; and Construction). • Projects or project phases that are fully funded.

Projects on the state highway system and projects implemented by Caltrans require a Caltrans approved Project Report.

9. Matching Requirement
Projects funded by the Formulaic Program will require at least a one-to-one match of private, local, federal, or state funds with the following exceptions:
• Taxing authorities with a voter-approved tax, toll, or fee which generates less than $2 million annually are required to provide a match equal to 25 percent of the requested Formulaic Program funds. This exception is based on the revenue generated by the nominating agency’s voter-approved taxes, tolls, or fees. • For Soundwall only projects, the expenditure of local funds to complete the Project Approval and Environmental Document, Plans, Specifications, and Estimate, and Rightof-Way phases may be used to meet the one-to-one match for the Construction phase.

For purposes of calculating the required match, the Commission will, except for State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) funding, only consider funds that are not allocated by the Commission on a project specific basis.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 6

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
Local Streets and Roads Program funding may be used; however, apportionments must be received from the State Controller’s Office, and the project must be eligible as outlined in the Local Streets and Roads Program Guidelines.

The matching funds must be expended concurrently and proportionally on the project phase programmed with Formulaic Program funds, except as noted below. Costs incurred prior to allocation will not be counted towards the match.

The Commission may, at the time of programming or allocation, approve non-proportional spending. For projects receiving federal funds, the non-proportional spending must be approved by the Federal Highway Administration prior to allocation.

Adjustments will be made at project closeout to ensure matching funds were spent proportionally to the Formulaic Program funds.

10. Distribution
Prior to each programming cycle, the Commission will adopt the formulaic distribution of funding for each eligible taxing authority rounded to the nearest whole thousand dollars. The Commission determines the formulaic funding amount for each eligible taxing authority with a voter-approved tax, toll, or fee that will be collected during the current programming cycle.

All taxing authorities eligible for formulaic funding will receive a minimum annual amount of $200,000. The Commission may adjust this minimum funding in future programming cycles.

Distribution Factors
• Revenue and Population
The Commission will determine the total amount of annual revenue generated from voter-approved sales taxes, voter-approved parcel or property taxes, voter-approved tolls, and other voter-approved taxes dedicated solely to transportation improvements according to the most recent available data reported as follows:
o Local sales tax revenues: the sum of gross revenues for the most recent four quarters as reported for each local tax by the Department of Tax and Fee Administration.
o Parcel and property tax revenues: the revenues for the most recent fiscal year, as reported to the State Controller pursuant to Government Code Section 53891. o Tolls and other tax revenues: the sum of revenues for the most recent fiscal year, as reported in the taxing authority’s most recent audited financial statements. o Population: the annual population estimate for cities and counties issued by the Department of Finance in May directly prior to the adoption of the formulaic funding distribution.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 7

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
• Geographic Location
The Commission will establish funding for northern California and southern California by attributing the proportional share of revenues from voter-approved sales taxes, voter-approved parcel or property taxes, voter-approved tolls, and other voter-approved taxes dedicated solely to transportation improvements and imposed in counties in northern California to the northern share; and by attributing the proportional share of revenues from voter-approved sales taxes, voter-approved parcel or property taxes, voter-approved tolls, and other voter-approved taxes imposed in counties located in southern California to the southern share. The determination as to whether a county is in northern or southern California shall be based on the definitions set forth in the Streets and Highways Code Section 187.

Southern Distribution. Program funds made available to the southern share will be distributed as follows:
• 75 percent based on the population of the county in which the taxing authority is located compared to the total population of southern California counties with voterapproved sales taxes dedicated solely to transportation improvements. • 25 percent based on the total amount of sales tax revenue generated by the voterapproved sales tax measures dedicated solely to transportation improvements administered by the taxing authority compared to the total amount of sales tax revenue generated from voter-approved sales tax measures dedicated solely to transportation improvements in southern California.

Northern Distribution. Program funds made available to the northern share will be distributed as follows:
• Program funds generated by voter-approved parcel or property taxes, voter-approved tolls, and other voter-approved taxes, excluding sales taxes, dedicated solely to transportation improvements shall be distributed to the taxing authority based on the proportional share of revenues generated by the toll or tax by that entity in comparison to the total revenues generated by, voter-approved parcel or property taxes, voterapproved tolls, and other voter-approved taxes dedicated solely to transportation improvements in northern California.
• Program funds generated by voter-approved sales taxes dedicated solely to transportation improvements shall be distributed to the taxing authority as follows:
o 75 percent based on the population of the county in which the taxing authority is located compared to the total population of northern California counties with voter-approved sales taxes dedicated solely to transportation improvements. o 25 percent based on the total amount of sales tax revenue generated by the voter-approved sales tax measures dedicated solely to transportation CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 8

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
improvements administered by the taxing authority compared to the total amount of sales tax revenue generated from voter-approved sales tax measures dedicated solely to transportation improvements in northern California.

The following factors will be considered for calculating the funding distribution, as applicable:
• Where a city has a voter-approved local sales tax and is located within a county without a countywide sales tax, the Commission will adopt a formulaic funding distribution for the city based on the city’s population and the city’s sales tax revenue. • Where a city has a voter-approved local sales tax and is located within a county with a voter-approved local sales tax, the Commission will adopt a countywide formulaic funding amount based on the county’s population and the county’s sales tax revenue; and a formulaic funding amount for the city based on the city’s sales tax revenue. • Where there are multiple eligible taxing authorities with a voter-approved local sales tax within a county (or counties) with a countywide sales tax, the Commission will adopt a formulaic funding distribution for each taxing authority based on the relative tax rates of each voter-approved sales tax.

Distribution Adjustments
The adopted formulaic funding distribution amounts for each taxing authority will not be adjusted mid-cycle to accommodate the inclusion of new voter-approved tax measures, tolls, or fees. Adjustments will be made to the total funding amount available for all taxing authorities in the subsequent cycle of the Formulaic Program except when unused incentive funding is redistributed (refer to Section 11, Incentive Funding).

Taxing authorities that receive voter approval for new tax measures, tolls, or fees after adoption of the formulaic funding distribution, will be eligible to receive formulaic funding on the first day following the measure effective date.
• For taxing authorities with new voter-approved sales taxes, the formulaic funding shall be distributed based on 75 percent of the county’s population in which the taxing authority is located compared to the total population of the region’s (Northern or Southern) counties with voter-approved sales taxes dedicated solely to transportation improvements.
• For taxing authorities with new voter-approved parcel or property taxes, voter-approved tolls, and other voter-approved taxes, excluding sales taxes, the formulaic funding shall be distributed based on the proportional share of the projected annual revenue of the voter-approved tax initiative in comparison to the total revenues generated by voter-approved parcel or property taxes,
voter-approved tolls, and other voter-approved taxes in Northern California.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 9

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES

11. Incentive Funding
The Formulaic Program recognizes new or renewed voter-approved self-help efforts and incentivizes jurisdictions to pursue future voter-approved tax measures, tolls, or fees. Incentive funding will be set-aside each fiscal year from the Local Partnership Program.

One-time incentive funding will be provided to jurisdictions that seek and receive voter approval of new or renewed tax measures, tolls, or fees, if those tax measures, tolls, or fees meet the following criteria:
• Have a minimum period of ten years, and
• Are dedicated solely to transportation, and
• For sales taxes, are equal to or greater than one quarter cent.

The total amount of incentive funding awarded to jurisdictions will not exceed $20 million annually. The incentive funding amount is based upon the projected annual revenue of the voter-approved tax, toll, or fee initiative. Incentive funding amounts will be a minimum of $200,000 and may range up to a maximum of $5,000,000 for each jurisdiction.

Jurisdictions with a projected tax revenue of less than $200,000 will receive the minimum incentive funding amount of $200,000.

Should the sum of eligible incentive funding amounts (based on the above criteria) exceed $20 million in any fiscal year, each incentive funding amount provided in that fiscal year will be reduced proportionally while still maintaining the $200,000 minimum funding amount. If this occurs, the Commission may elect to provide funding equal to the reductions in the following fiscal year, if incentive funding is available (that is, if the incentive funding in that following year is not depleted).

Incentive funding will be made available to eligible jurisdictions in June of each year.

Unused Incentive Funding
Unused incentive funding will be redistributed as outlined below. If there are unused incentive funds in the last year of the programming cycle, those funds will be redistributed in the subsequent cycle.
• Based on the program funding distribution (60 percent via formulaic and 40 percent via competitive).
• The amount to the Formulaic Program will first be used to offset the formulaic funding distribution amounts of new tax measures, tolls, or fees added during the fiscal year.

Then the remaining balance will be redistributed to eligible taxing authorities in the next fiscal year.
• The amount to the Competitive Program will be redistributed in the last fiscal year of the Competitive Program programming cycle.

A taxing authority may nominate an existing programmed project for supplemental funding if the project was allocated Formulaic Program funding and the supplemental funding is programmed to the same project phase.

Supplemental funding requests for pre-construction phases may be considered up to six months prior to the expenditure deadline. The expenditure deadline for a supplemental allocation must be the same as the original allocation.

Supplemental funding for the Construction phase must be programmed and allocated prior to contract award.

The supplemental funding may be to replace local funding already committed to the project, subject to the required match (refer to Section 9, Matching Requirements).

To streamline the programming process, a taxing authority may request to program supplemental funds with a simplified project nomination submittal as outlined in Appendix B.

Taxing authorities requesting to add funding to an unallocated phase should refer to Section 26, Amendments.

13. Reimbursement
The Formulaic Program is a reimbursement program for eligible costs incurred. The implementing agency may begin incurring eligible costs upon allocation; however, reimbursement is dependent upon entering into an agreement with Caltrans. Costs incurred prior to Commission allocation and, for federally funded projects, Federal Highway Administration project approval (i.e., Authorization to Proceed) are not eligible for reimbursement.

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
IV. PROGRAMMING

14. Screening Criteria
The Commission will include each project nominated by a taxing authority in the formulaic program of projects provided that the Commission finds the nomination meets the requirements of statute and Commission guidelines.

Project nominations will be screened for the following:
• Project eligibility.
• A completed Project Nomination prepared and submitted in accordance with the 2026 Local Partnership Formulaic Program Guidelines and instructions provided in Part VII, Appendix A.
• The project demonstrates the required funding match.
• The project demonstrates that all other funds for the proposed project (segments and phases) are committed.

15. Program of Projects
The program of projects is a list of projects adopted by the Commission at the beginning of each programming cycle that shows the amount of Formulaic Program funds approved for each nominated project.

The Formulaic Program of projects for each fiscal year will include, at a minimum for each project, the nominating and implementing agency, project title, and the amount to be funded from the Formulaic Program. The program of projects will not include projects that request Formulaic Program funding that exceeds a taxing authority’s formulaic funding distribution.

A taxing authority can nominate a project for inclusion in the program of projects by submitting a project nomination as outlined in Appendix A. Projects nominated for inclusion in the Formulaic Program after the initial deadline will be amended into the program of projects with subsequent Commission action.

16. Programming Requirements
The Commission will program eligible project costs in the following phases: Project Approval and Environmental Document; Plans, Specifications, and Estimate; Right-of-Way; and Construction.

For Caltrans implemented projects only, the cost of Right-of-Way support and Construction support will be separated out and programmed separately from the Right-of-Way capital and Construction capital costs.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 12

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
The Commission will program and allocate funding to projects in whole thousands of dollars.

The Commission will program a project phase only if it finds that the phase itself is fully funded from a combination of Formulaic Program and other committed funding, or uncommitted funding as outlined in Section 15, and that the required match has been met. The Commission will regard funds as committed when they meet the requirements outlined in Part IV, Section 19, Committed and Uncommitted Funds.

A project nomination may identify an agency other than the eligible taxing authority to be the implementing agency. The implementing agency assumes responsibility and accountability for the use and expenditure of program funds as well as staying in compliance with Part VI, Section 28, Project Reporting.

These guidelines do not preclude the transfer of formulaic funding between eligible taxing authorities. Taxing authorities may agree to transfer their Formulaic Program funding by nominating a project in another county. The taxing authority must include a letter signed by all parties agreeing to the transfer as part of the project nomination.

Taxing authorities and implementing agencies must comply with all relevant federal and state laws, regulations, policies, and procedures.

The Commission expects collaboration and cooperation between the taxing authority (nominating agency), implementing agency, and Caltrans for all projects on the state highway system.

17. Unprogrammed Formulaic Funding
If the initial program of projects adopted by the Commission does not program the full amount of a taxing authority’s formulaic or incentive award funding, the balance will remain available for later program amendments supported by eligible project nominations until June 30, 2030 (first fiscal year of the subsequent programming cycle). The taxing authority must submit project nominations by April 30, 2030.

Unprogrammed funds must be programmed and allocated by June 30, 2030. Funds that remain unprogrammed and unallocated by the deadline will be redistributed to the Local Partnership Program. Where a project will not be ready for allocation, the implementing agency should request an extension of the allocation deadline (refer to Part V Sections 24 and, Timely Use of Funds – Deadlines and Section 25, Timely Use of Funds - Extensions).

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 13

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES

18. Advanced Programming
For the 2026 Local Partnership Formulaic Program Cycle, advanced programming may be considered before Initial Programming in January 2027 for eligible agencies seeking to deliver projects that will support significant events of statewide economic impact, such as the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Los Angeles. Advanced programming requests will be subject to current available program allocation capacity, the eligible agency’s available Formulaic distribution, and all other Formulaic Program requirements. Agencies should contact Commission staff as soon as possible should they have questions regarding eligibility of their advanced programming request before submittal.

All documents must be submitted to Commission staff at least 60 days prior to the Commission Meeting where advanced programming will be considered and recommended for approval. This will allow Commission staff to perform a timely review of the project application and its statewide impact, analyze funding impacts to the applicable program cycle, and formulate a recommendation to the Commission. Project Nominations for advanced programming must follow the Project Nomination process outlined in Appendix A.

19. Committed and Uncommitted Funds
The Commission will regard funds as committed when they are programmed by the Commission or when the taxing authority with discretionary authority over the funds has made its commitment to the project by ordinance or resolution.

For federal formula funds, including Regional Surface Transportation, Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program, and federal formula transit funds, the commitment may be by Federal Transportation Improvement Program adoption. For federal discretionary funds, the commitment may be by federal approval of a full funding grant agreement or by grant approval.

Uncommitted funds may only be from the following competitive programs:
• Trade Corridor Enhancement Program
• Solutions for Congested Corridors Program
• Local Partnership Competitive Program
• Federal discretionary grant program
If a project with uncommitted funds is programmed, all funding commitments must be secured prior to July 1 of the year in which the project is programmed.

The implementing agency must provide a project funding plan through the Construction phase that demonstrates the non-Formulaic Program funding in the plan (local, federal, state, private sources) is reasonably expected to be available and sufficient to complete the project.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 14

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
Projects programmed by the Commission in the Formulaic Program will not be given priority in other programs under the Commission’s purview.

20. Letter of No Prejudice
The Commission will consider approval of a Letter of No Prejudice to advance a project programmed in the Formulaic Program. Approval of the Letter of No Prejudice will allow the implementing agency to begin work and incur eligible expenses before allocation. The Letter of No Prejudice Guidelines are available on the Commission’s website.

21. Title VI Requirements
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq. (“Title VI”) prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin in any program or activity that receives federal funds or other federal financial assistance.

All projects programmed for Formulaic Program funds must comply with Title VI requirements, as follows:
• The implementing agency assumes responsibility and accountability for the use and expenditure of program funds. Nominating agencies and implementing agencies must comply with all relevant federal and state laws, regulations, policies, and procedures. • The implementing agency will ensure that no person or group(s) of persons shall, on the grounds of race, color, national origin, sex, age, disability, limited English proficiency, or income status, be excluded, or otherwise subject to discrimination, related to projects programmed and allocated by the Commission, regardless of whether the programs and activities are federally funded. The implementing agency will comply with all federal and state statutes and implementing regulations relating to nondiscrimination. • A current list of Title VI nondiscrimination and related authorities is available on the Commission’s website.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 15

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
V. DELIVERY

22. Delivery Methods
The Commission supports and encourages innovative delivery methods. Projects may use alternative delivery methods such as design-build (DB), progressive design-build (PDB), design sequencing procurement, or Construction Manager/General Contractor (CMGC) in accordance with the statutory authority applicable to the implementing agency and/or mode being delivered. Projects using these methods do not follow the same procedures as projects using design-bid-build delivery. Flexibility may be requested and approved consistent with programming and allocation capacity, program guidelines, and state and federal law.

Programming and Allocating Projects Using Alternative Delivery Methods • Funds programmed in pre-construction phases of a project or project segment are not affected by this section and remain subject to the existing programming process as specified in Part IV, Section 16, and allocation process as specified in Part V, Section 23.
• If an implementing agency changes the delivery method of a programmed project, the implementing agency shall notify Commission staff as soon as the change is identified. The change will be processed through the project amendment process as specified in Part V, Section 26, and does not extend timely use of funds deadlines. • Projects using any alternative delivery method remain subject to the existing programming process as specified in Part IV, Section 16, and allocation process as specified in Part V, Section 23. Construction phase allocation requests shall be based on the final engineer's estimate, as specified in Part V, Section 23. o For projects using the design-build and progressive design-build delivery methods, the Commission will program the Local Partnership Formulaic Program funds in the construction component of the project. However, the allocation may be a combined amount to include design, right of way, and construction.
o Construction allocations for progressive design-build projects may fund costs associated with both design and construction, or construction only, depending on how the contracts are structured.
o Allocations for projects will not be approved before environmental clearance is achieved for the entire project, as specified in Part V, Section 23. • Progressive design-build and Construction Manager/General Contractor projects may be divided into segments or work packages to facilitate project delivery.

A segment is a portion of a project that has independent utility. A work package is a contracting and delivery bundle within a project or segment, such as grading, CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 16

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
demolition, utility relocation, or long-lead procurement. A work package is not required to have independent utility.
• If progressive design-build or Construction Manager/General Contractor projects are divided into separate work packages for the construction phase, then:
o Work packages will be programmed in the Local Partnership Formulaic Program by the Commission through an amendment after receiving a request from the implementing agency, as specified in Part V, Section 26. o Allocations for a work package will be approved only if the work package is part of a project or segment that is fully funded (i.e., the current cost estimate for the entire project is within the project's committed funding). o A list of the anticipated work packages with their delivery years and scopes of work must accompany the allocation request for the initial work package, and subsequent work package allocation requests must provide an updated list of the remaining anticipated work packages.
o Work packages shall be for severable portions of work, such that:
▪ The implementing agency is not obligated to have the contractor construct any other portion of the work.
▪ The magnitude of the remaining work packages maintains the contractor's engagement for the remainder of the project. ▪ The work package does not conflict with work to be performed under subsequent work packages.
o Implementing agencies must engage with Commission staff and Caltrans when considering work packages.

23. Allocations
When an agency is ready to implement a project or project phase, the agency will submit an allocation request to Caltrans. After receipt of the request, the typical time required to complete Caltrans review and recommendation, and Commission allocation is 60 days.

If the project will be implemented by an agency other than the taxing authority, the allocation request must be signed by the implementing agency and include a copy of the Memorandum of Understanding or Interagency Agreement between the project applicant (taxing authority) and implementing agency.

Review Process
Caltrans will review the allocation request and provide a recommendation to the Commission for action. The recommendation from Caltrans must include:
• Determination of project readiness.
• Availability of appropriated funding.
• Availability of all identified and committed supplementary and matching funds.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 17

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
• For a construction allocation recommendation, certification from Caltrans verifying that the project’s Plans, Specifications, and Estimate are complete, environmental and Rightof-Way clearances are secured, and all necessary permits and agreements (including railroad construction and maintenance) are executed. Caltrans considers these projects Ready to List (RTL).

Commission staff may request additional information as part of the Commission’s review.

Allocation Requirements
• In compliance with Section 21150 of the Public Resources Code, the Commission will not allocate funds for Plans, Specifications, and Estimate; Right-of-Way; or Construction prior to documentation of environmental clearance under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). As a matter of policy, the Commission will not allocate funds for Plans, Specifications, and Estimate; Right-of-Way; or Construction of a federally funded project prior to documentation of environmental clearance under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).
• The Commission, as a Responsible Agency, must approve the environmentally cleared project for future funding consideration. The submission forms for this approval are available on the Commission website.
• The Commission will approve an allocation in whole thousands of dollars. • If there are insufficient program funds to approve an allocation, the Commission may delay the allocation of funds to a project until the next fiscal year without requiring an extension.
• The implementing agency must not award a contract for any project phase until the Commission has approved allocation of the Formulaic Program funds on that project phase.

Construction Phase Allocations
• A project will only be placed on the Commission’s agenda for an allocation of Construction and Construction support funds if the project is ready to advertise. • When Caltrans is the implementing agency, Right-of-Way Support and Construction Support costs must be allocated separately from Right-of-Way capital and Construction capital costs.
• The implementing agency must not award the Construction contract for a project until the Commission has approved allocation of the Formulaic Program funds for the project.
• The implementing agency should not request an allocation of construction funds unless it is prepared to award contract(s) related to the allocation within six months of allocation approval.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 18

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
• If an agency that has Commission approval to use more than one contract to deliver the programmed project scope, then it must request separate allocations for each independent contract.
• If a project or project phase is ready for implementation earlier than the fiscal year in which it is programmed in the Formulaic Program, the implementing agency may request an allocation in advance of the programmed year. The Commission may approve an allocation in advance of the programmed year if the allocation will not delay availability of funding for other projects.

Allocation Adjustments
Allocated funds may be shifted between programmed project phases to accommodate cost changes within the following limits:
• Any amount that is allocated for the Project Approval and Environmental Document phase may also be expended for the Plans, Specifications, and Estimate phase. • The implementing agency may expend an amount allocated for Project Approval and Environmental Document, Plans, Specifications, and Estimate, Right-of-Way, and Construction for another allocated project phase, provided that the total expenditure shifted to a phase in this way is not more than 20 percent of the amount actually allocated for either phase. This means that the amount transferred by the implementing agency from one phase to another may be no more than 20 percent of whichever of the phases has received the smaller allocation from the Commission. Shifting of allocated funds between phases will not impact the amount of Formulaic Program funding programmed to the project. The implementing agency must coordinate with Commission staff and Caltrans and receive the approval of all the partners that nominated the project before submitting allocation adjustment requests to Commission staff and Caltrans.

24. Timely Use of Funds - Deadlines
The Commission expects certain deadlines to be met as programmed projects are implemented. If the expected deadlines are not met and a time extension is not approved prior to the expiration of a deadline, the Formulaic Program funds will be deleted from the project phase and the funds will be redistributed in the subsequent Local Partnership Program cycle. • Allocation Deadline – Allocation for a programmed project phase must be requested in the fiscal year in which the funds are programmed. Funds programmed to a project expire on June 30 of the fiscal year in which the funds are programmed. An allocation request must be placed on the Commission meeting agenda no later than the June Commission meeting of the fiscal year in which the funds are programmed.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 19

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
At the time of fund allocation, the implementing agency may request that the Commission extend the deadline for completion of work and the liquidation of funds beyond the 36 months for project completion outlined in the Timely Use of Funds Policy, to accommodate the proposed expenditure plan for the project.
• Contract Award Deadline – The Construction phase contract(s) must be awarded within six months of an approved allocation.

The implementing agency must not award the contract(s) for a project until the Commission has allocated the Formulaic Program funds programmed for the project. • Project Expenditure Deadline (Pre-Construction) – Funds allocated for project development (Project Approval and Environmental Document; Plans, Specifications, and Estimate) or Right-of-Way costs must be expended by the end of the second fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the funds were allocated. The implementing agency must invoice Caltrans for these costs no later than 180 days after the expenditure deadline. • Project Completion Deadline – After award of the construction phase contract(s) (project completion), the implementing agency has up to 36 months to complete (accept) the contract(s). The implementing agency must invoice Caltrans for these costs no later than 180 days after the completion deadline.
• 10-Year Requirement – Projects must commence right-of-way acquisition or construction within 10 years of receiving pre-construction funding (Project Approval and Environmental Document; Plans, Specifications, and Estimate) through the Formulaic Program, or the implementing agency must repay the Formulaic Program funds. Repaid funds will be redistributed in the subsequent Local Partnership Program cycle.

25. Timely Use of Funds - Extensions
The Commission may extend the deadlines listed in Part V, Section 20 under the following conditions:
• An unforeseen and extraordinary circumstance beyond the control of the responsible agency has occurred to justify the extension.
• Extension requests should describe the specific unforeseen and extraordinary circumstance and identify the delay directly attributable to the circumstance. • No deadline will be extended more than once.
• Each deadline extension request will be considered separately for each programmed project phase.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 20

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
• The extension will not exceed the period of delay directly attributed to the extraordinary circumstance.
• The extension request cannot exceed the maximum period of delay identified in this section.
• An implementing agency must submit a time extension request to Caltrans at least 60 days prior to the Commission meeting at which the extension is requested to be approved.
o An allocation extension request must be approved by the Commission before June 30 of the fiscal year the funds are programmed.
o Except for the allocation of funds, time extension requests must be received by Caltrans before the expiration dates indicated in Section 20. • Caltrans will review and prepare a written analysis of the proposed extension request and forward the written analysis and recommendation to the Commission for action. • The Commission will consider a time extension request when it receives a time extension request with a recommendation from Caltrans.
• If a time extension is not approved prior to the expiration of a deadline, the Formulaic Program funds will be deleted from the project phase and the funds will be redistributed in the subsequent Local Partnership Program cycle.

The following types of extensions may be requested in the Formulaic Program:

1. Allocation Extension (12 month maximum) – May be requested if a project phase cannot be allocated before June 30 in the fiscal year it is programmed.

2. Contract Award Extension (12 month maximum) – May be requested if the construction contract(s) cannot be awarded within six months of the approved allocation of funds for the Construction phase.

3. Project Expenditure Extension (12 month maximum) – May be requested if preconstruction phase expenditures (Project Approval and Environmental Document; Plans, Specifications, and Estimate; and Right-of-Way) cannot be completed by the end of the second fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the funds were allocated.

4. Project Completion Extension (20 month maximum, construction phase only) – May be requested if, after allocation, the implementing agency finds that project completion will not occur within 36 months of the construction contract award.

26. Amendments
The Commission will consider amendment requests to assist agencies in implementing their projects and maximize the overall benefits of the Formulaic Program. Amendment requests CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 21

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
must be submitted as soon as the implementing agency has identified a need for one and must include documentation that supports the requested change and its impact on scope, cost, schedule, and benefits (outputs and outcomes). Amendment requests are not guaranteed to receive approval.

The Formulaic Program amendments are defined as significant or minor updates, changes, or corrections to a programmed project including the information submitted in the project nomination package.

Schedule changes to a project will not be considered unless a time extension is approved (refer to Section 25).

If there is a cost increase to the project, the implementing agency must submit an updated electronic Project Programming Request form that identifies the cost increase and the fund source that will cover the cost increase.

General Instructions for all Amendments
Implementing agencies must notify Caltrans of proposed amendments. Amendment requests must be documented in writing and include the following:
• Detailed explanation of the proposed change.
• Reason for the proposed change. Provide documentation as applicable. • Impacts to the project benefits (outputs and outcomes). o Provide a comparison between the proposed benefits
(outputs and outcomes) and those submitted in the initial project nomination, noting an increase, decrease, or no change.
• Revised electronic Project Programming Request form documenting the proposed changes and the amendment request.
• Written concurrence of the proposed amendment from all partners that nominated the project.

Caltrans will review the proposed amendments and present the agency’s proposal along with Caltrans’ written analysis and recommendation to Commission staff for Commission’s approval.

Amendment requests include but are not limited to scope changes, contract separation, and reprogramming formulaic funding.

Scope Changes
The Commission will consider changes to the approved scope submitted in the project nomination to assist agencies in implementing their projects and to maximize the benefits.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 22

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
The Commission and Caltrans should be notified as soon as possible of a potential change in project scope.
• Scope changes occurring before an allocation approval and deemed by Commission staff to be minor changes will be presented to the Commission as part of the project allocation request. Minor changes are those with little or no impact to the project benefits or those that increase the project benefits.
• Scope changes deemed by Commission staff to be significant changes, and the project benefits are less, will be presented to the Commission as an amendment with a Commission staff recommendation.
• The Commission will not consider scope changes after construction phase allocation unless the request is to expand the scope due to savings at contract award. A scope change due to savings at contract award must be submitted and approved by the Commission prior to contract award (refer to Section 23, Project Cost Savings).

Contract Separation
If the project is divided into more than one contract after programming, the Commission will consider a program amendment. The Commission and Caltrans should be notified as soon as possible if the project is divided into more than one contract. • Each project phase must remain programmed in the fiscal year in which it was originally programmed.
• The amendment request must identify the scope, funding plan, and schedule for each contract. This includes contracts without Formulaic Program funding but delivering any portion of the project scope that was originally programmed. • A separate electronic Project Programming Request must be submitted for each contract.
• The benefits (outputs and outcomes) that will be achieved should be described for all contracts combined.
• An agency may only request to separate contracts for a programmed project once during the life of a project.
• Contract separation must be approved prior to the construction phase allocation.

Reprogramming Formulaic Funding
The Commission will consider reprogramming Formulaic Program funds on a programmed project if the funds have not been allocated. Project cost savings will be reprogrammed consistent with the policy outlined in Section 27, Project Cost Savings. • Requests to increase the amount of Formulaic Program funding on a programmed, unallocated project phase must be submitted prior to allocation of the project phase.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 23

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
• Unused funds from an approved reprogramming action (i.e., when partial funds are deprogrammed from a project) will be returned to the taxing authority’s unprogrammed Formulaic Program funding balance.
• The Commission will not consider reprogramming a deleted project in the same programming cycle.
• An allocation adjustment should be requested to reprogram allocated funds (refer to Section 23, Allocation Adjustments).
• Requests for programming a new project or adding supplemental funds to an existing project should reference Appendix A, Project Nominations and Appendix B, Supplemental and Amendment Project Nominations.

27. Project Cost Savings
Project cost savings will be returned proportionally through a Commission action with the following requirements:
• Cost savings will be returned proportionally to the formulaic funding balance of the eligible taxing authority that nominated the project.
• The implementing agency must coordinate with Caltrans and the nominating agency to confirm the cost savings amount prior to a Commission action. • The Commission will only consider a request to return cost savings after the implementing agency submits a written request to Commission staff and Caltrans. The written request must include confirmation of the cost savings and the amount to be returned. All written requests must be emailed to [email protected]. • The Commission must be notified in writing of cost savings within the expenditure deadline (refer to Section 24, Timely Use of Funds - Deadlines). • The implementing agency must submit a deallocation request to Caltrans. After receipt of the request, the average time required to complete Caltrans review and recommendation, and Commission deallocation is 60 days. Depending on the complexity of the request, some requests may take longer than 60 days. • Cost savings returned to the taxing authority are available for programming after the Commission approves an action to both deprogram and deallocate the funds. • Returned cost savings must be programmed and allocated within twelve (12) months of the Commission action. Funds that remain unprogrammed and unallocated after twelve months will be redistributed in the subsequent Local Partnership Program. • Cost savings will be returned proportionally unless the agency requests to use the savings on the same project to fund a cost increase on a subsequent programmed phase.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 24

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
“Proportionally”, when used in reference to project cost savings, means that savings will be returned based on the percentage contributed from each fund source. As an example, cost savings realized in a project phase that is funded 50 percent with Formulaic Program funds and 50 percent with local funds, the savings will go back to each “pot” of funds based on the percentage contributed to the project phase from each funding type.

Construction Phase Cost Savings
Cost savings at contract award may be used to expand the scope of the project. The expanded scope will be considered a scope change amendment and must be reviewed and approved by Commission prior to contract award (refer to Section 22.2, Scope Changes). All other contract award savings will be returned proportionally at project completion.

Cost savings at project completion must be returned proportionally except when an agency has, after project programming, committed additional funds to the project to fund a cost increase. In such instances, savings at project completion may be returned to other fund types first, until the proportions match those at programming.

Pre-construction Phase Cost Savings
The Commission must be notified in writing of cost savings in pre-construction project phases within the expenditure deadline (refer to Section 20, Timely Use of Funds - Deadlines).

Commission review of cost savings requests in pre-construction project phases will take place after the expenditure deadline. Pre-construction phases include Project Approval and Environmental Document; Plans, Specifications, and Estimate; and Right-of-Way.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 25

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
VI. PROJECT REPORTING

28. Project Reporting
Pursuant to SB 1, the Commission must track and report the progress of projects funded by the Formulaic Program. The reporting requirements as outlined in the Commission’s Accountability and Transparency Guidelines are required for all projects programmed in the Formulaic Program.
• Baseline Agreements are not required for Local Partnership Program Formulaic projects.
• All Local Partnership Program Formulaic projects must submit a 1st Section Progress Report, Completion Report, Final Delivery Report, and a Project Performance Analysis.

29. Project Tracking Database
Caltrans maintains an electronic database of the adopted Formulaic Program and Commission actions. The database includes project specific information, including project description, location, cost, scope, schedule, status, and a map. The project information from the database is accessible at https://build.ca.gov/.

30. Project Auditing
The audit requirements are outlined in the Commission’s Accountability and Transparency Guidelines and are required for all projects programmed in the Formulaic Program.

31. Project Signage
An implementing agency must include construction signage stating that the project was made possible by SB 1 - The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (or Rebuilding California Funds) and include the Commission’s official logo which can be requested from the Clerk of the Commission. The signage should comply with applicable federal and state laws, and Caltrans’ manual and guidelines, including but not limited to the provisions of the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. Reference Caltrans’ Construction Project Funding Identification Sign webpage for additional details and requirements about project construction signage.

APPENDIX F – SB 1 PROGRAMS TRANSPORTATION EQUITY SUPPLEMENT I. BACKGROUND
Racial Equity Statement
On January 27, 2021, the California Transportation Commission (Commission) adopted its Racial Equity Statement, which states:

The California Transportation Commission recognizes that throughout California’s history, improvements to the State’s transportation system have disproportionately benefitted some population groups and burdened others. The Commission condemns all forms of racism and is actively working to promote equitable outcomes through our programs, policies, and practices.

In the mid-Twentieth Century, California undertook a major expansion of transportation infrastructure aided by an influx of federal funding. While infrastructure improvements were being planned, designed, and constructed, Black, Indigenous, and other people of color were disenfranchised, lacked voting protections, and were underrepresented in government decisionmaking. New highways were frequently constructed through predominately Black, Latino, Asian, and low-income neighborhoods to meet the needs of primarily white suburban commuters, and through tribal lands. Racist policies and decisions also influenced the siting of other types of transportation infrastructure, such as commuter railways, and the delivery of transit services.

The results of racial segregation and disinvestment of transportation funds in communities of color are still visible in cities today.

Californians who live in historically underserved communities are more likely to be negatively impacted by increased exposure to air pollution and noise from cars, trucks, ships, trains, and aircraft, and struck or killed by drivers when walking and biking. These vulnerable communities may have limited access to safe and affordable transportation options to connect residents to jobs, education, healthcare, and recreation. In addition, people of color may experience diminished safety and comfort while walking, biking, driving, or using public transportation as a result of racial discrimination in enforcement.

The Commission vows to create mobility opportunities for all Californians, especially those from underserved communities, to thrive in all aspects of life. The Commission will:
• Work to build and strengthen relationships with community-based organizations, nonprofits, advocacy organizations, and other equity experts and practitioners; • Empower the Commission’s Equity Advisory Roundtable and future related efforts to help inform transportation decision making;
CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 49

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
• Strengthen understanding of community transportation needs and challenges through the forthcoming Community Listening Sessions;
• Ensure equity, public health, and robust public engagement via our planning and programming guidelines;
• Provide expanded opportunities for Commissioner and staff training related to diversity, equity, and inclusion; and
• Feature equity topics and elevate diverse perspectives in public meetings of the Commission.

We uphold our dedication to serve and improve the quality of life for all Californians by continuing to prioritize transportation equity issues and ensuring all experience safe, affordable, and efficient transportation.

Supplement Purpose
The Commission developed this supplement in collaboration with members from the Interagency Equity Advisory Committee and other interested parties as a resource for applicant agencies preparing project nominations for Senate Bill 1 Programs (Local Partnership Program, Solutions for Congested Corridors Program, and Trade Corridor Enhancement Program). The Commission endeavors to ensure program policies progress by embedding equity considerations in the project development, nomination, and selection process.

This supplement provides information on key statistics, benefits, and communication strategies that may be used during project development to yield more equitable outcomes. An applicant agency may use the information and strategies presented here to explain how a project advances transportation equity from identification and inclusion to impacts and outcomes:
• How did the agency engage communities in the project study area to identify their needs? Did the agency directly engage with disadvantaged or historically impacted and marginalized groups, including Black, Indigenous, and other people of color, Native American Tribal Governments and other Tribal communities, displaced or unhoused persons, individuals with disabilities, seniors and elders, and low-income individuals or communities? How was community feedback incorporated into the project? How did the agency inform communities about whether their feedback was incorporated into the project?
• How did the agency develop the project scope? Was the alternatives analysis developed to include community and Tribal feedback, where applicable? Can the agency CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 50

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
demonstrate its partnership and collaboration with the disadvantaged or historically impacted and marginalized communities in the project study area? • How did the agency assess if the project would cause any disparate impacts on the basis of race, color, socioeconomic status, gender, sexuality, disability status, or national origin? If disparate impacts were identified, did the agency consider and incorporate alternate options as applicable?
Equitable practices should be considered through a project’s lifecycle (planning, development, and delivery). This can include structural and procedural equity strategies like the examples provided in this supplement. Structural strategies reform planning practices to create inclusive, affordable, and resource-efficient transportation infrastructure, whereas procedural strategies provide special benefits to disadvantaged groups to create fairness in process.

Mindful and meaningful inclusion and engagement are critical to successfully advance equity in transportation planning as well as project development and delivery.

Agencies may use this supplement to incorporate equitable corridor improvement strategies and advance projects with more equitable outcomes in their comprehensive multimodal corridor plans, as required in the Solutions for Congested Corridors Program.

Agencies may also consult the California Strategic Growth Council’s Racial Equity Resource Hub to learn more about racial equity best practices (key focus hubs to consider: Creating Your Roadmap, Growing Awareness, Taking Action). The California Strategic Growth Council represents seven state member agencies, including the California State Transportation Agency, and created the Racial Equity Resource Hub to consolidate, streamline, and promote racial equity resources and tools for state agencies’ implementation.

II. RESOURCES AND EXAMPLES
Example Indicators Used to Identify Disadvantaged or Historically Impacted and Marginalized Groups
Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Section 39711, disadvantaged communities are identified based on geographic, socioeconomic, public health, and environmental hazard criteria. Disadvantaged communities may include either of the following:

1. Areas disproportionately affected by environmental pollution and other hazards that can lead to negative public health effects, exposure, or environmental degradation.

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 51

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES

2. Areas with concentrations of people that are of low income, high unemployment, low levels of homeownership, high rent burden, sensitive populations, or low levels of educational attainment.

Recognizing localized differences helps to identify disadvantaged or historically impacted and marginalized groups. Some example indicators are included for reference below. i. Median Household Income: Census tracts where the median household income is less than 80 percent of the statewide median based on the most current Census Tract (ID 140) level data. Communities with a population less than 15,000 may use data at the Census Block Group (ID 150) level. Unincorporated communities may use data at the Census Place (ID 160) level. Data is available at the United States Census Bureau website.
ii. California Communities Environmental Health Screening Tool (CalEnviroScreen):

CalEnviroScreen is a mapping tool developed by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment on behalf of the California Environmental Protection Agency that uses environmental, health, and socioeconomic information to produce scores for every census tract in the state, which can be accessed on the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment’s website.
• Senate Bill 535 (De León, Chapter 830, Statutes of 2012) established initial requirements for minimum funding levels to “Disadvantaged Communities” for specified programs and required the California Environmental Protection Agency to identify those communities. The Senate Bill 535 Designation of Disadvantaged Communities identifies four types of geographic areas as disadvantaged, including census tracts that receive the highest 25 percent of overall scores in the most recent version of CalEnviroScreen.
iii. Healthy Places Index: The Healthy Places Index was developed by the Public Health Alliance of Southern California, and includes a composite score for each census tract in the state. The higher the score, the healthier the community conditions based on 25 community characteristics. The scores are then converted to a percentile to compare a census tract to other tracts in the state. Within the Healthy Places Index, a census tract must be in the 25th percentile or less to qualify as a disadvantaged community. The live map and direct data can be accessed on the California Healthy Places Index website. • Extreme Heat Edition: Developed by the Public Health Alliance in partnership with the UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation, the Healthy Places Index Extreme Heat Edition provides datasets on projected heat exposure for California, place-based indicators measuring community conditions and sensitive populations. It also provides a list of resources and funding opportunities that can be used to CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 52

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
address extreme heat. More information about the tool and a live map can both be found on the UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation website. This tool complements the California Heat Assessment Tool funded by the California Natural Resources Agency as part of the state’s Fourth Climate Change Assessment.
iv. Native American Tribal Governments – Projects located within Federally Recognized Tribal Lands (typically within the boundaries of a Reservation or Rancheria) or projects that provide benefits to California Native American Tribes. v. Regional Definition: Regional definitions such as “environmental justice communities,” “equity priority communities,” or “communities of concern.” The regional definition must be developed through a robust public outreach process that includes community members’ input and must be stratified based on severity. A regional definition of disadvantaged communities must be adopted as part of a regular four-year cycle adoption of a regional transportation plan (RTP) or sustainable communities strategy (SCS) by a metropolitan planning organization or regional transportation planning agency, per obligations with Title VI of the Federal Civil Rights Act of 1964. A regional definition of disadvantaged communities must be used for the region’s broader planning purposes rather than only to apply for Senate Bill 1 Program funding. vi. California Department of Transportation Equity Index (EQI): A mapping tool developed by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to identify areas with the greatest need for improved transportation access and safety. It incorporates multiple indicators, including underserved communities (based on Census blocks aligned with Senate Bill 535 and Assembly Bill 1550 (Gomez, Chapter 369, Statutes of 2016)), traffic exposure (such as proximity to high-volume corridors), access to destinations (measuring multimodal access to essential services), and transportation-based priority populations (considering demographic factors and the intersection of transportation benefits and burdens). Together, these components provide a comprehensive, datadriven view of transportation equity conditions at a granular level. The live map and detailed use instructions can be accessed on the California Department of Transportation’s website.
• Underserved Communities: Caltrans defines underserved communities using a combination of socioeconomic and geographic criteria captured in the EQI. This includes low-income communities as well as Tribal lands. These definitions align with state guidance (i.e., Senate Bill 960 (Wiener, Chapter 630, Statutes of 2024)) and are intended to ensure consistency in identifying communities most affected by transportation inequities, therefore supporting more equitable planning, investment, and decision-making. For additional details, users can refer to the CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 53

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
EQI User Guide and the Senate Bill 960 Underserved Communities Guidance available on the EQI website.
vii. Other: If an applicant agency cannot utilize the aforementioned indicators, it may submit other documentation to demonstrate the project benefits a disadvantaged or historically impacted and marginalized community. Suggested alternatives include:
• Census data that represents an assessment of the project study area. The agency must submit a quantitative assessment (e.g., a survey) to demonstrate that the population contained within the project study area boundary includes:
o A median household income that is at or below 80 percent of the state median household income.
o A significant number of households at risk of displacement due to cost-ofliving burden or project siting. o A significant number of households receiving food stamps or public assistance.
o A significant population of seniors and elderly residents. o A significant population of individuals with disabilities or mobility-impaired residents.
o A significant population of single-parent households. o A significant population of immigrant or foreign-born households. o A significant population of veterans.
o A significant number of car-less households.
o A significant number of public transit users (including mobility-impaired users who rely on public transit).
• Unemployment measurements.
• Nearby amenities, including shopping centers, health centers, schools, social services, and employment sites, or lack thereof.
• Traffic safety indicators, including collisions and injuries sustained. • Community-derived safety information and indicators such as high-risk zones for pedestrians and cyclists, illegal dumping hot-spots, or school-safety priority zones.
• Areas of Persistent Poverty and Historically Disadvantaged Communities, as defined by the United States Department of Transportation and identified using the mapping tools provided here.

Example Equity Outcomes
Advancing equity in transportation results in a more diverse, affordable, accessible, and efficient transportation system for everyone. Equitable transportation projects can:

CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 54

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES

1. Increase access to educational, economic, social, and cultural opportunities and amenities, including shopping centers, health centers, schools, community organizations, museums, social services, transit centers, employment sites, parks, and open space.

2. Reduce travel times and congestion, especially in the long term.

3. Reduce pollution.

4. Improve access to active transportation and provide alternatives to automotive options.

5. Improve safety of active transportation and non-motorized modes of travel in the community and the corridor.

6. Enhance opportunities to increase physical activity by encouraging use of active transportation.

7. Enhance opportunities to encourage use of zero-emission modes of travel.

8. Increase access to accessible facilities and infrastructure with first-and-last-mile connectivity to accommodate all types of travelers, especially mobility impaired users and seniors and elders.

9. Incorporate community and Tribal art into the design of project elements.

Example Inclusion and Engagement Strategies
Meaningful inclusion and engagement require sustained interactions and consistent, transparent communications to build trust through every step of the project planning process—from first thought to last action. This is especially important in disadvantaged or historically impacted and marginalized communities.

Community inclusion and engagement may be pursued during each stage in the project development and delivery process. An applicant agency should demonstrate how its inclusion and engagement strategies align with the types of strategies included as examples below, describe how recently that engagement has occurred, and how it is actively implemented.

While there are many types of engagement strategies to utilize, applying multifaceted approaches may provide the best opportunity to effectively engage with and learn from the communities and populations in question. For example, direct engagement strategies, such as meeting with community leaders to develop relationships, can be combined with indirect strategies, such as surveys and polls to understand community needs, in which case both the communities and the applicant agencies benefit from building trust and gaining new insights through collaboration.

While effective engagement strategies are important, building trust with disadvantaged or historically impacted and marginalized communities is also critical. Meaningful engagement CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 55

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
often depends on establishing and maintaining trusted relationships through consistent follow-up, transparency, and culturally competent communication, and the acknowledgement of past harms that contribute to community distrust and shape community perspectives.

Potential engagement strategies include:

1. Identify, contact, engage, and include the perspectives of disadvantaged or historically impacted and marginalized groups. Public outreach should include a mix of traditional and digital communication strategies to reach a broad range of community members:
• Traditional engagement methods may include phone calls, mailers, flyers, and inperson events, as disadvantaged and historically impacted and marginalized groups may lack access to computers and the Internet.
• Digital engagement methods may include virtual meetings, online surveys, social media, infographics, and other accessible online content, to broaden participation and reach community members through multiple formats.
• In-person engagement activities should be conducted at community-relevant locations such as schools, community centers, senior centers, food distribution locations, parks, transit stops, community events, and other commonly visited public spaces, and at times that are convenient for community members. • Agencies should endeavor to make in-person engagement activities as accessible and inclusive as possible by selecting locations that are accessible by public transit, and considering supportive accommodations, such as food and childcare, where allowable by law.
• Engagement resources should be provided in multiple languages for non-native English speakers, and in accessible formats based on community needs, including braille, accessible digital formats, human readers, captioning, interpretation, and other accommodations for persons with visual, auditory, or other accessibility needs.

2. Develop relationships with community-based leaders, groups, or organizations, such as environmental justice groups, religious or spiritual leaders, well-known individual advocates and community organizers, local pedestrian and bike advocacy groups, public school leadership, local transit riders, senior centers, long-distance commuters (super commuters), linguistically or physically isolated groups, seniors and elders, and youth individuals and groups. This can also include community members who may face barriers, including formerly incarcerated persons; undocumented persons; individuals with disabilities; displaced and unhoused persons; and lesbian, gay, transgender, and queer communities. When engaging with individuals with disabilities, applicants should consider coordination with organizations such as California Independent Living Centers, centers for the blind, and other organizations and advocates that serve individuals with disabilities.

3. Collaborate with community-based groups and organizations to establish a local or regional project study area organization or committee (e.g., planning, oversight, advisory, steering, etc.) with decision-making authority to empower community leaders and solicit quality community input and feedback through the project planning process.

4. Develop a community benefits agreement with a project study area community to strengthen incentives for good-faith community engagement and deliver targeted, meaningful benefits to the community.

5. Demonstrate how community-identified and community-driven perspectives were solicited and included or integrated into the project purpose and need or scope.

6. Survey and collect information on non-motorized travel demands and the unmet mobility needs of disadvantaged and historically impacted and marginalized groups identified in the project study area. Use this information to develop transportation improvements to address these needs.

7. Incorporate opportunities for community members to share personal and community experiences, histories, challenges, and perspectives as part of the engagement process.

8. Develop relationships and conduct meaningful engagement with Tribal governments and incorporate their feedback into the project planning and delivery process.

9. Collaborate, fund, or contract with local organizations to support community engagement efforts in the project planning and delivery process.

10.Prioritize community-identified high-need areas, such as those identified through robust community engagement.

11.Prioritize contracting strategies that benefit disadvantaged or historically impacted and marginalized groups such as the communities identified in this supplement.

12.Ensure stability in neighborhoods and communities through the successful implementation of short-term and long-term anti-displacement strategies and policies consistent with federal and state law.

Example Anti-Displacement Resources
Anti-displacement strategies help ensure that transportation investments benefit existing residents and businesses rather than contributing to involuntary displacement, loss of community ties, reduced access to jobs and services, or exclusion from future opportunities.

These strategies can help protect housing stability, preserve community cultural identity, and promote more equitable outcomes for disadvantaged and historically impacted or marginalized groups.

Definitions
• Anti-displacement refers to various strategies, programs, and laws that intend to counteract the displacement pressures felt by individuals. Some examples include, but CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION | P AGE 57

2026 LOCAL PARTNERSHIP FORMULAIC PROGRAM GUIDELINES
are not limited to, rent assistance, subsidized housing, tenant protections, legal assistance to at-risk renters, rent stabilization, foreclosure prevention programs, and eviction prevention programs.
• Displacement refers to a situation in which households or businesses are involuntarily forced to relocate. Displacement effects can include homelessness, loss of community, loss of access to jobs and services, and loss of economic opportunity, and disproportionately affects historically marginalized groups. o Direct displacement may occur due to economic (foreclosure, rent increases, eviction, etc.) or physical reasons (environmental catastrophe, demolition of existing housing, etc.).
o Indirect or “exclusionary” displacement prevents people or businesses from moving into a neighborhood (i.e., excluded) because of high rents or other conditions they are unable to control or prevent, such as policies that prohibit overnight parking, which may affect unhoused individuals who sleep in their vehicle.

Resources

1. California Department of Housing and Community Development Final 2020 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice: Report detailing impediments to fair housing and recommendations for anti-displacement strategies.

2. Urban Displacement Project: Comprehensive website with reports, data mapping, and resources for California local, regional, and state entities.

3. Framework for Evaluating Anti-Displacement Policies: Criteria that can be utilized to better understand the ways that certain policy tools can be used to address the needs of vulnerable groups impacted by displacement.

4. Greening Without Gentrification: Ongoing study that identifies and classifies parksrelated anti-displacement strategies.

5. Transit-Oriented Development Without Displacement: Strategies to Help Pacoima Businesses Thrive: Research study focused on commercial anti-displacement strategies that can support a predominantly immigrant-owned small business community.

FROM: Nick Wells, City Manager
SUBJECT: Replacement of Lighting at the Water Treatment Plant ISSUE:

Shall the City Council authorize an expenditure of Water Enterprise funds to replace non-functioning lighting at the City's Water Treatment Plant?
DISCUSSION:

The City has been without lighting in some areas of the Water Treatment Plant for several years.

Additionally, the installation of solar panels at the south end of the plant have created a new area of security concern.

After replacement of some of that lighting was proposed by the contractor performing the work to install the solar array at the plant, staff solicited quotes from other electrical companies. One firm, AA Electric - which currently functions as the City's "on-call" electrical repair contractor, responded with a significantly lower quote. Requests for quotes from other area contractors went unanswered.

Plant Supervisor Josh Osuna has reviewed the AA quote, deemed it reasonable, and recommended that we utilize that firm to perform the work.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Expenditure of less than $30,000 in funds from the Water Enterprise. It is possible that this repair will be absorbed by the current budget, however, it was not a planned expenditure and may cause the department to exceed the $125,000 alotted for Professional & Specialized Services.

ALTERNATIVES:
1 - Approve the expenditure as presented.
2 - Direct staff to solicit additional options.
3 - Reject the project and expenditure request.
3 - Give staff other direction.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Approve the expenditure to the recommended vendor.

‘THE CARROT CAPITAL OF THE WORLD’
September 15th, 2026
Attn: Nick Wells,
This letter is to request the maintenance and upgrade of the water treatment plant light poles that have been out of service since 2018.

Originally, these light poles were supposed to be included in the solar panel installment scope of work. Unfortunately, that did not happen, and we are now on our own for these upgrades. There are five light poles located on the south side of the water plant. All five light poles are out of service and require a lift and upgraded LED photocell lights. Currently there are no lights on the south side which has potential to be dangerous for both operators and trespassers during the night.

We have three drying beds that each could have someone potentially falling in and causing injury. We also have a pond that is full of water which could lead to someone slipping or falling in and being unable to get out. We have a container full of tools and parts that could be broken into. Lastly, would be the newly installed solar panels. New light poles were never in the scope of work for this area. These areas are dangerous to continue keeping unlit.

Also, our operators have noticed a significant rise in citizens walking around this area, as well as vehicle traffic in the southeast side since the completion of the solar panels. The alamo river trail begins and ends in that area, and the heavy traffic from the nearby packing shed could lead to nosy citizens and or vandalism.

It is my recommendation that we move to repair our light poles to prevent trespassing and vandalism of both the water treatment facility and solar panels.

Please see attached quotes. Please let me know if you have any concerns or questions. Best regards,
Joshua Osuna

of the CMAQ grant funds is that the City secure site control. The city will need to complete an annexation of the right-of-way into the City of Holtville.

DISCUSSION
The City of Holtville initiated discussions with the Imperial County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) and the County of Imperial to annex approximately 3.19 acres of rightof- way on Melon Avenue between 6th Street and 9th Street for sidewalk improvements, (Refer to Attachment B – Plat & Legal Description). Annexing will satisfy grant funding requirements and will facilitate future right-of-way maintenance and improvements. Annexation maps have been created and an annexation application deposit has been submitted to LAFCO. The area to be annexed involves publicly owned land that historically has not been subject to property taxes; however, a Tax Sharing Agreement will be required as part of the annexation approval process.

An exchange of tax revenues is not expected and will be made part of the Tax Sharing Agreement. To complete the annexation process, the city will need to provide a complete Annexation Application, Resolution accepting a Tax Sharing Agreement, and a Minute Order to memorialize the City Council’s action.

PENDING ACTION
After reviewing all pertinent information, the City Council may motion for one of the following actions:

1. Adopt Resolution 26-27 accepting the proposed annexation, approving the City Manager review and execute a Tax Sharing Agreement, and authorizing the City Manager to execute any other document relevant to the annexation process, (Refer to Attachment C – Resolution 26-27).

2. Not Adopt Resolution 26-27 and provide staff with alternate direction.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
DATE ISSUED: September 18, 2026
FROM: Nick Wells, City Manager
SUBJECT: City Manager Update
INFORMATION ONLY – NO ACTION REQUIRED AT THIS TIME

ADMINISTRATION
Public Safety Lot/New Construction – Rubio Medina of Irvine, California was engaged in April, 2023, to perform Architecture services to design Phase I (Fire Apparatus Bay) and Phase II (PS Administration & Fire Dormitories) of this project. Staff met with Mr. Medina multiple times in early May, wherein iterative documents were discussed and revised. Pursuant to discussions between Council, Chief Silva, the CM, and Mr. Medina regarding configuration, direction solidified for constructing a 3-bay apparatus section and a 2- story administration/residence area. Further discussion also clarified the placement of the building on the site and the external motif design. Due to an increase in the size of the project over that which was called out in the RFP, the architect approached the City about augmented funding. More solid delineation of cost estimates for the phasing of the project were presented in August, 2024, and approved by Council.

A status update meeting with Mr. Medina, Chief Silva, and the CM was held via Zoom in late January, 2025, wherein Medina estimated submission of plans for first plan check to be middle to late February. Chief Silva continued to meet virtually with the architect and subconsultants on various issues over the spring months.

The full set of drawings were finally submitted to the plan check firm in late April. This process was expected to be iterative with the architect, with multiple redlines and resubmissions, with staff expecting the entire process to be less than 60 days. However, the architect was once again very slow to turn the documents back around to the plan checkers, subsequently saying that he was “waiting on” some information from the City to move forward. That was then sent to him. Chief Silva spoke with Mr. Medina in early November and although he continued to want to hold the project up for minor issue like landscaping and color schemes, he resubmitted the process for a second plan review. Chief Silva checked in with Mr. Medina in early January and he admitted not much work had been done of late, but would be getting back on it. At one point in early 2026, although the plans were resubmitted for plan check, the submission was incomplete, so review had not begun. Chief Silva continues to check in with Mr. Medina to resolve any issues. Medina currently has multiple plan check items that need response. Some work on offsite issues need to be finalized. A web conference with staff and consultants to discuss grading issues was held last week. There was a bit of a holdup with the local subconsultant engineers for this function. Staff helped to apply pressure and plans were resubmitted last week. The City Engineer turned around comments for more revisions within a few days and Mr. Medina has said he will stay on top of it.

Multiple conversations regarding augmented funding have taken place with staff, Council, and various entities. In late April, 2025, the CM and Mayor Goodsell flew to Sacramento in association with a League of Cities event and had an opportunity to meet with our state legislators regarding directed funding for the project. We were also able to dovetail into ongoing conversations between ICSO and these representatives for funding their own Imperial County project. Budget funding will be tight, due to state shortfalls, but this Meeting Date 09/21/26

work, along with assistance from CrisCom, put the City in a very favorable position to capture any potential windfalls. Chuck Jilloian, the President and CEO of CrisCom, addressed the Council at a June meeting, reiterating that our project stands a good chance of getting directed funding. The CM met with a CrisCom representative in August to get an update on the legislative process and discuss additional grant opportunities. The CM compiled information from various sources and submitted an application for directed Congressional funding to Raul Ruiz’s office in early May. It was revealed to our group at the League of Cities Conference that the City’s $2 million request to Congress made it out of committee and was still on track to be funded if/when a federal budget was passed. The City received word that the project was selected by the Congressman and recommended to the Congressional budget committee. Although we were notified in March that the Congressman’s projects were not funded, his office subsequently resubmitted in the next round of funding. City officials hosted both Congressman Ruiz and Assemblyman Jeff Gonzalez at the Veteran’s Day Parade in November, 2025. We took the opportunity to escort both to the site of the upcoming construction to provide a visualization of the building concept. Recently, the City received word that the $2 million Congressional allocation had been approved. Officially, President Trump signed the Continuing Resolution that funds the project in early February! Congressman Ruiz was in town in early April to make an official presentation of the award of funds. In late April, Mr. Goodsell and the CM travelled to Sacramento to once again meet with State legislators to solicit additional assistance.

Staff continues to pursue additional funding sources. At the 2024 League of Cities Annual Conference, Councilmen Anderson and Goodsell joined the CM in multiple conversations with firms and organizations that show promise as potential funding sources. One salient proposal was received on which Council requested further research. The contact led to a two-year agreement in February, 2025, with the CrisCom Company to represent the City in pursuing funding. The CM is working with CrisCom on the upcoming budget “asks” for all of our elected representatives. A CrisCom rep was on hand for the Carrot Festival Parade in early February. The CM and a few Council members had a dinner meeting the night of the parade to further discuss ongoing work with CrisCom and potential additional funding. CrisCom reps were in town for a July Council meeting and brought dinner in afterwards to facilitate a discussion on the current needs of the City. The City’s contingent to the League of Cities conference next week are making plans to meet up with CrisCom folks at the event.

Staff is working to procure additional funding through HCD via a CDBG Block Grant. Although these grants are very competitive, it is hoped that the utility of our project will reflect well on fundability. The application was officially submitted in early April. Awards are expected to be announced in the Fall.

Finance – two reports for the State Controllers Office were due some time ago and an absolute deadline to complete them was coming recently. As our audit firm has always completed these reports, their completion was fairly difficult. The CM spent much of the past few weeks completing these documents and submitting them to the proper divisions of the agency.

Events – Fire staff and Council participated in memorial ceremonies commemorating the 9-11 terror attacks at both Finley Elementary and Holtville Middle School. Keeping youth informed about this terrible incident helps ensure that we NEVER FORGET! The first Farmers Market of the season was held last night. A steady flow of folks came out and the movie for kids was a decent draw. As always, we expect to have things pick up as the weather cools.

The next event will be held on Thursday, October 15 at 5:30 pm.

League Conference – Mayor Pacheco, Councilmen Anderson and Goodsell, the CM and our City Clerk Yvette Rios will be spending a few days in Anaheim this week for the League of CA Cities Annual Conference. Much hard work and learning is expected!

PUBLIC WORKS

TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS
Pine Avenue Sidewalks –Holtville was awarded CMAQ dollars through ICTC in 2023 to add sidewalks to both sides of Pine Avenue between Fourth and Fifth Streets. A Task Order for The Holt Group to prepare Design plans was approved in September, 2025. Staff met with the City Engineer on some issues for this project in late October. THG met with adjacent property owners to discuss issues and preferences in early February. Design is now complete, so staff has been working with Caltrans to get authorization for construction soon. A holdup with IID regarding power pole relocation resulted in much discussion. To avoid the conflict, THG revised the plans to take the sidewalk around the subject poles. With documentation from Caltrans in hand to proceed, action is on the current agenda to put this project out to bid. 2025 Call for Projects – two projects suggested by staff in late April, 2025, were approved by Council for application. Pursuant to conversations at the SCAG Conference, the CM requested that planning staff work up and submit two additional projects by the due date. The 4 projects (Cedar Avenue from Fourth to Fifth, as well as Melon Avenue from Eighth to Ninth, Seventh to Eighth, and Sixth to Seventh) were submitted.

ICTC went through the scoring process and the Holtville projects all scored toward the middle of the pack, however, especially given the palatable funding levels, all were proposed to be funded. All were subsequently approved by the SCAG Transportation Committee and General Assembly. For the Melon Road projects, funding will require ownership, so the process has begun to annex all of that section from the County. Staff met with County Public Works in April to discuss this and potential other street/RoW annexations which was met with positive feedback. Ongoing work has now involved the County surveyor to approve the proposed annexation. Planning staff is currently working on moving the East Ninth Street and Melon Avenue annexations forward.

Capital Improvements Project Listing – a meeting was held in November, 2023, with staff, including the City Manager, City Engineer, City Planner and Water/Wastewater Lead Operator to discuss long term capital improvements needed in the City. Water system improvements, sewer system upgrades, streets projects and other issues were discussed. Staff reinitialized discussions with Council and had some preliminary information on the late-April, 2025 agenda. Discussion will continue on subsequent agendas.

The folks from the Institute for Local Government conducted a training on goal setting relevant to this process in May, 2026.. Subsequent to that training session, we will develop this further after Budget season.

ILG forwarded their notes from the session in early July, which will be reviewed and brought back for further discussion.

PARKS
Railroad Trestle Repair – A grant was secured from the California Natural Resources Agency (CNRA) to repair the railroad trestle burned in a river bottom fire several years ago. This is necessary to connect the Trail to east side of the river and eventually the Wetlands. After over a decade and a half of being somewhat unsightly and unusable, the trestle will soon be fixed cosmetically and usable for pedestrian and nonmotorized traffic. Documentation was finally signed for this grant in late October, 2021. Kleinfelder, Inc., was selected for Design services in April, 2024, and a meeting with the design team was held to discuss various facets of the project. Multiple ideas to control costs and stretch the project dollars were decided upon. The decision was made to proceed with the general direction of keeping the original character of the structure, while making concessions to keep costs under control.

Pursuant to a periodic plan check, reprioritization of the elements to be completed vis a vis available funding was amended in May. Kleinfelder provided 90% plans in late September, which included construction estimates. THG reviewed the plans and sent them back to Kleinfelder for clarification and/or correction. The revised plans were resubmitted and further comments were sent back by THG. 95% plans were received in February and final plans soon after. A site visit with the design engineer, staff and The Holt Group was held in early January to iron out some issues. Bids were opened in February, with the low bid significantly over the amount of funding available for the project. Staff met with representatives of CNRA to discuss options.

Requested additional funding is not available, so staff is working to truncate the project to fit within the available funds. This will require approval from CRNA, but they seemed receptive to most discussed options. Staff has been working on a reduction in scope submission to CNRA for approval. Council authorized THG staff to work on the scope reduction in early May.

As a separate potential funding source, staff worked with THG and CrisCom on a grant application to CNRA under the Urban Greening Program, but that was unsuccessful. Staff also worked on a submission for this project under SCAG’s Active Transportation Project funding. Finally, Planning staff prepared an application for the IID FLOW program, as it specifically calls out bridge funding as a possible use. Staff was recently informed that the City’s FLOW grant scored well and has a high probability of funding.

Holtville East Trail Link - The City Manager had multiple discussions in recent years about a Trail extension from the Trestle to the Country Club area, then to the UC Research station and eventually to Hwy 111 for easier access to IVC with active transportation funding options. The idea has been well received by SCAG staff and the head of County Public Works. An application for Active Transportation funding was developed in mid-2024 and a grant application was submitted in June to fund design of the project.

Mellinger Alamo River Trail - A grant was awarded in early 2024 to River Partners, a non-profit that deals in habitat restoration, for a project that would include a Wetlands trail spur. RP met with the City Manager and toured the site, then engaged Nicklaus Engineering to design the project. Staff has worked with NEI and River Partners extensively since March of that year to discuss design elements. River Partners performed multiple physical “scouting” trips to decide the best path for the trail extension. They performed some preliminary exploration and soil sampling to move the project forward. A tentative map was forwarded to the City in early 2024. The original template was aggressive (i.e. “Expensive”), so it was assumed that discussions and concessions would continue. River Partners presented a slightly revised plan to the Council in early October to get feedback on the direction of the project. Staff met virtually with River Partners in mid-December, with some minor adjustments to the plans discussed. A regrouping meeting was held in February with a few outstanding studies to proceed with the next steps in finalizing design and procuring funding. A site visit was held in late October with River Partners and IID to discuss issues. The meeting mainly centered on foliage issues, but next steps were discussed and a side discussion with IID regarding upkeep of the Wetlands was fruitful. A pre-submittal meeting with the County was held recently to start working toward commencing the project. The CM checked in with River Partners staff recently. With the design complete, the current grant is closed out, however, they have committed to help continue to seek funding for the project. The CM had discussions regarding project scope with RP staff in later June to make the permitting more streamlined for the project. Staff received word in early July that the proposal through the Urban Greening grant was judged adequate to move on to the next round of consideration. We are working with River Partners on the necessary additional documentation, including some preauthorization from IID to utilize their included properties.

SitelogiQ Energy Savings Project – this project was proposed to add mandated energy efficiency modifications to City facilities was examined in 2025. In order to take advantage of expiring federal incentives, the project was somewhat fast tracked and approved by Council in October. Financing was secured in late November/early December. A project kickoff meeting was held with SitelogiQ representatives and City staff in late December, then staff began meeting with the implementation team for semi-weekly progress meeting. Finance staff worked through the process of making construction payments through the bond funding and the first payment was drawn from the bonds in late March. LED lighting has now been installed at the Samaha Park basketball courts and work on the solar panels at the plants will begin soon. As an offshoot to this project, the City has applied for and received the IID GLOW grant to replace additional field lighting at both Samaha and Mack Parks.

The more substantial portion of the project has been the installation of solar panels at the Water and Wastewater Treatment Plants. As much of the work has been completed, staff has processed multiple payment applications from bond funds in the past few weeks. The CM attended a mixer hosted by SitelogiQ earlier this week and discussed the project’s completion with their staff.

Park Grant – Mayor Pacheco attended a seminar regarding newly released funding under the state Park Bond passed several years ago. As luck would have it, both our CrisCom grant writer and staff at The Holt Group have experience with this grant, so work has commenced to apply for funding, hopefully for lighting and other amenities at Mack Park. Action to procced is on the current agenda.

BUILDING DEPT - The City has issued 98 building permits thus far in 2026. A list of permits issued by month is available on the City’s website at https://www.holtville.ca.gov/building-planning/buildingandplanning/building-department/ Melon, LLC Housing Project (± 50) – A project has been in the works for some time at the northeast corner of Ninth and Melon, just outside the City limits. After years of confusion regarding the process, the project’s ownership group, led by John Hawk, engaged Development Design & Engineering in 2016 to assist in moving the project along. DD&E completed CEQA compliance, and a Mitigated Negative Declaration was adopted by the Planning Commission and City Council in late 2020.

The project was presented at the Planning Commission in October 2020 and drew a good deal of public opposition. PC action pushed the project forward with a designation of allowing R-1 or R-2 development, with Council accepting the PC recommendation in November, 2020. The denser R-2 zoning designation would allow up to 8 units per acre, or approximately 65 units. The annexation was approved by LAFCo in February, 2021. We await further submission from the project proponent.

Staff has spoken with Mr. Hawk multiple times to remind him that there are still several requirements to move his project forward. He still needs to produce a site plan, building plans, pull permits, etc. The CM has spoken with Mr. Hawk periodically in the past few years and he vacillated between a desire to sell the project and working with a builder to construct the project himself. The CM spoke with Mr. Hawk again in early 2026, wherein he stated that he was planning to come in to meet regarding proposed footprints.

AMG Pine Crossing Apartments (± 64) – This is a mirror image project across from Fern Crossing complex. Building plans were approved in early October, 2024, and site work began shortly thereafter.

Several issues with the underground work (primarily sewer and stormwater) were addressed in the Spring of 2025. An issue with the design of their sewer conveyance to the City system arose and rectified in early 2026, rectifying an elevation miscalculation from their design staff by taking a longer run to a different manhole for connection. They are currently working to be ready for opening in July or August. Staff met in early May to discuss proposed changes to the handling of the stormwater by the developer. Staff is currently working on loan documents to utilize PLHA funds already secured to support this project. The builders have been working on paving issues with both Holt and Pine Avenues. Staff has been working with the contractor to limit the closures, which have already been affecting the City for several weeks.

Peri & Sons Ag Labor Housing (66) – this project was introduced to Planning Commission earlier this week. It proposes to construct USDA-approved dormitory style housing for up to 660 H2A Visa Program agriculture laborers working for the applicant firm. PC approved the site plan and density waiver contingent on City Council approval of the land use designation and Conditional Use Permit. A Public Hearing was held at a subsequent City Council meeting and the project was approved. The contractor met with staff in July to inform the City of upcoming submission and to discuss the potential timeline for approval to move forward with building permits. Plans have been submitted for review and the site is currently being cleared.

The first plan check produced several points that Duggins worked to correct. In early March, they resubmitted for second plan check. Issues arose that required staff work, but most have been resolved. Peri & Sons recently notified staff that there is a plan to truncate the project, with full buildout expected at a later date. Subsequently, a back channel source has said the project may be on hold for a year.

WATER ENTERPRISE
Rate Study – The profitability of the Water Enterprise has been problematic in recent years. Coupled with the debt covenant to budget a net revenue of 120% of the annual debt service, a rate adjustment has been explored. A formal Water Rate Study must be completed. The CM discussed this issue with THG early this month. A study is likely to cost in the $30k range. An item will be brought in the next few weeks to procced with procuring a consultant. The CM discussed this issue with staff and it is being moved up for more immediate action.

CR# 26.24636 - Deputy Request
The School Resource Officer was made aware of a comment allegedly made by a student regarding “shooting up the school.” The SRO contacted the involved teacher, who stated they heard a student say they were going to “shoot up Sam Webb” following a conversation between the student and another student regarding school shootings. The SRO contacted the student in question. The student stated they did not make a threat to shoot up the school and explained that they said, “that shit happens all the time,” in response to the other student’s comments regarding school shootings. The SRO and school staff subsequently made contact with the student’s father who stated he does not own any firearms of any kind inside the household. The student and parent were counseled regarding the seriousness and potential consequences of making threats involving school violence. SRO was unable to identify any additional witnesses to the alleged statement, as other students in the classroom denied hearing the student make any comments regarding the incident. The student was subsequently placed on a five-day suspension from school
