SUMMARY:
The City of Lathrop submits the local Transportation Development Act ( TDA) claim annually to the San Joaquin County Council of Governments ( SJCOG). The TDA claim requests Local Transportation Funds ( LTF) from for the current year' s budgeted street and road projects.

BACKGROUND:
TDA provides a major source of funding for public transportation projects known as the Local Transportation Fund ( LTF).
Revenues for the LTF are derived from a 1/ 4cent portion of the 8. 75 percent retail sales tax collected in the county. Annually, SJCOG determines each City' s share of the anticipated LTF based on its population within the County.
LTF funds may be used for a broad range of transportation improvements including local roads, public transit, as well as bicycle and pedestrian improvements. Over the past several years, the City has used these funds for various projects including the Lathrop Road widening project, street sidewalk improvements, and slurry seal/ pavement repairs to roads in various areas.
For Fiscal Year 2023/4the total LTF funds that are available for the City of Lathrop amount to $ 4,30, 251, which includes a prior year carryover amount of $ 689, 33.
The City' s proposed LTF expenditures total $ 4, 254, 500 leaving an unclaimed or surplus balance of $ 175, 72. The projects identified for each of the LTF expenditure categories can be found in the notes section of Table 1. The unclaimed balance of 175, 72 can be programmed into streets and roads projects for FY 2024/5pending Council' s directive. Based on the available LTF resources and programmed expenditures staff is recommending City Council authorize the filing of the FY 2023/4 TDA claim in the amount of $ 3, 565, 107.
