The most recent federal surface transportation funding program, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), was signed into law in July 2012. This is the first long-term federal transportation authorization enacted since 2005, and the new authorization brings significant changes to typical funding sources and structures. MAP-21 funding is distributed to federal and state surface transportation funds. Most of these resources are available to the City of Dublin through Caltrans, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and the Alameda County Transportation Commission (Alameda CTC). This chapter includes details about current programs that are used to fund existing scheduled projects and an assessment of upcoming programs as of April 2013. Thes e may change as state and local programs adapt to the new MAP-21 funding. The majority of public funds for bicycle, pedestrian, and trails projects are derived through a core group of federal and state programs. Federal funding is authorized through the Surface Transportation Program (STP). STP provides flexible funding that may be used by S tates and localities for projects on any Federal-aid highway. In the past this funding was authorized by the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU). SAFETEA-LU was authorized in 2005 and addresses the challenges associated with safety, traffic congestion, freight, intermodal connectivity and environment by directing funds to state and local transportation decision makers. SAFETEA-LU expired in 2009, but authorized the funds that are currently being used to fund existing transportation programs and projects. Future funding for STP is authorized by MAP-21, with the same structure and goals of the existing STP funding. Transportation Enhancements (TE) under SAFETEA-LU is now the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP). TAP, authorized through MAP-21, consolidates TE, Safe Routes to School, and Recreational Trails and provides funding for programs and projects defined as transportation alternatives, including on- and off-road pedestrian and bicycle facilities, transit access, mobility, and recreation trails program. TAP broadens eligibility and flexibility for state allocation of TAP funds. Safe Routes to School programs, including infrastructure, encouragement, campaigns, education, outreach and a Safe Routes coordinator, are eligible under TAP, though no funds are dedicated for this. The Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program (CMAQ) also authorizes federal funds, including education programs. MAP-21 maintains the existing CMAQ program and broadens eligibility for transit operations. Federal funds from STP, TAP and CMAQ programs are allocated to MTC and distributed in Alameda County through Alameda CTC.. Distribution is allocated either competitively or proportionally according to jurisdiction population. Other recent policies at the federal level have resulted in a series of programs that promise to provide increased funding in the coming years for bicycle projects. The HUD-DOT-EPA Interagency Partnership for Sustainable Communities has generated a series of new grant programs to-date, including Urban Circulator grants, TIGER grants, and Sustainable Communities Planning grants. The Department of Transportation recently announced a new DOT policy initiative, indicating “well- connected walking and bicycling networks [are] an important component for livable communities.” There are a number of state-wide funding sources and regionally administered funds. These are summarized below and in Table C-1, which shows the applicability of these various funding sources to projects, planning efforts, and programs proposed in this Plan. Prior to 2012, the state and federal Safe Routes to School programs were potential funding sources for both bicycle and pedestrian planning and infrastructure projects that improve access to schools. Caltrans administered two Safe Routes to School programs: the state-legislated program (SR2S), authorized by California Streets and Highways Code Section 2330-2334, and the federal program (SRTS), authorized by the SAFETEA-LU federal funding bill. The SR2S and SRTS programs provided $24.25 million and $21 million, respectively, in annual funding. While the future of Safe Routes funding is uncertain in California, ongoing legislative efforts are being considered to continue funding programs at or near historical levels. Neither MAP-21, the federal funding bill for transportation spending, nor the proposed California’s Governor’s Budget 2013-14, include set-aside funds for Safe Routes to School projects. See the regional funding discussion below for other sources for Safe Routes funding. California state assembly bills currently under consideration propose continued state funding for Safe Routes to School. Should Safe Routes to School funding continue beyond 2013, several of the proposed bikeways in this Plan could be eligible for Safe Routes to School programs. In general, the pedestrian and bikeway projects most competitive for Safe Routes to School funding have the following characteristics:  Directly accesses a school  Are part of the network of low-stress bikeways such that students and their parents will be comfortable bicycling on the facility  Resolve a documented safety problem or safety concern  Have strong support from school officials and nearby residents TABLE C-1: REGIONAL FUNDING SOURCE APPLICABILITY MATRIX Funding Source Class I Bicycle Path Class II Bicycle Lane Class III Bicycle Route Pedestrian Projects Other Projects Planning and Programs Safe Routes to School Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Grants Caltrans Transportation Planning Grants California Bicycle Transportation Account (BTA) Local Transportation Fund (LTF) California State Parks Recreational Trails Program (RTP) Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCP) Proposed Active Transportation Program (ATP) One Bay Area Grant (OBAG) BAAQMD Transportation Fund for Clean Air2 Transportation Development Act (TDA) Measure B Measure F Notes: 1. indicate that funds may be used for this category; indicate that funds may not be used for this category, and indicate that funds may be used, though restrictions apply. 2.

The Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) program was established as part of SAFETEA-LU in 2005 to implement infrastructure- related highway safety improvements to significantly reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries on public roads. The Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) is a core federal-aid program that aims to reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries on public roads. Caltrans administers the program in California; in its most recent grant cycle (July 2012), Caltrans awarded $111 million to 221 projects. HSIP funds can be used for projects such as bicycle lanes on local roadways, improvements to Class I shared-use paths, pedestrian safety improvements, or for traffic calming measures. Applications that identify a history of incidents and demonstrate their project’s improvement to safety are most competitive for funding. Caltrans expects the available funding apportioned to local agencies in the 2013 Federal Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (FSTIP), which is a four-year funding cycle from 2012/13 through 2015/16, to be approximately $100 million for the four-year HSIP plan. More information is available online: http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/LocalPrograms/hsip.htm Caltrans Transportation Planning Grants are available to jurisdictions and can be used for planning or feasibility studies. The maximum funding available per project is $300,000. Bicycle facilities can be funded through the California Bicycle Transportation Account (BTA). Annually, $7.2 million is available for projects through the BTA. Limited amounts from the Local Transportation Fund (LTF), which is derived from a ¼ cent of the general sales tax collected statewide, can be used for bicycle and pedestrian facilities. The California State Parks administers the state’s Recreational Trails Program (RTP). RTP provides funds annually for recreational trails and trails-related projects. Cities are eligible applicants for the approximately $5.3 million available annually. The program requires an applicant match of 12 percent of the total project cost. The National Park Service and California State Parks administer the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCP). The LWCF Program provides matching grants to states and local governments for the acquisition and development of public outdoor recreation areas and facilities Cities are eligible applicants. Approximately $1.74 million is available annually; grants require a 50 percent local match. Some of these programs will no longer be funded under proposed and current federal and state funding plans, and may only be short -term funding resources for the current schedule of projects. See below for proposed funding structures related to some of these programs. The Governor has proposed to consolidate five existing state funded programs: Transportation Alternatives Program, Recreational Trails program, Safe Routes to Schools, Environmental Enhancement and Mitigation Program and the Bicycle Transportation Account. Under the new plan the Governor proposes to create a single Active Transportation Program (ATP) administered by the state Business, Transportation and Housing Agency. As it is proposed, the ATP provides approximately $134 million annually, with a focus on implementing active transportation improvements to support the goals of local SB 375 sustainable community strategies. This program would be funded from a combination of federal and state funds from appropriations in the annual state budget act. Project types allowed under the ATP would include: new bikeways serving major transportation corridors, new bikeways to improve bicycle commuting options, bicycle parking at transit and employment centers, traffic control devices to improve pedestrian and bicycle safety, improving and maintaining safety on existing bikeways, recreational facilities, Safe Routes to School projects, Safe Routes To Transit projects, education programs, and other improvements to bicycle-transit connections and urban environments. MTC created the Transportation for Livable Communities (TLC) program in 1998. It provides technical assistance and funding to cities, counties, transit agencies and nonprofit organizations for capital projects and community-based planning that encourage multimodal travel and the revitalization of town centers and other mixed-use neighborhoods. The program funds projects that improve bicycling to transit stations, neighborhood commercial districts and other major activity centers. One Bay Area Grant Program (OBAG) is now an umbrella for the previous MTC grant programs. It combines funding for Transportation for Livable Communities, Bicycle, Local Streets and Roads Rehabilitation, and Safe Routes to School for the FY 2012-13 through 2015-16 funding cycles. This program is administered by MTC and awards funding to counties based on progress toward achieving local land -use and housing policies. Cities and counties can still use OBAG funds for projects described under these programs. MTC OBAG program information: http://www.mtc.ca.gov/funding/onebayarea/ The Surface Transportation Program (STP) block grant provides SAFETEA and MAP-21 funding for transportation projects, including pedestrian and bicycle projects (see above discussion about Federal programs for details). This program is administered by MTC, which can prioritize projects for RSTP funding. MTC STP program information: http://www.mtc.ca.gov/funding/STPCMAQ/ Transportation Development Act (TDA), Article 3 funds statewide funds for planning and construction of pedestrian and bicycle facilities administered locally through MTC. TDA, Article 3 funds are allocated based on population and may be used for engineering, right of way, construction, retrofitting, route improvements, and an assortment of bicycle facilities. Through MTC’s Regional Measure 2, funded by an increase State-owned toll bridges in the Bay Area, the Safe Routes to Transit (SR2T) grant program awards funding to projects that support “last-mile” walking and bicycling connections to regional transit stations. The goal is to make walking and bicycling to transit easier, faster, and safer. The program is administered by TransForm and the East Bay Bicycle Coalition. Cycle Four awarded eight cities and agencies with over $4,000,000. A call for projects for the last SR2T funding cycle is anticipated in 2013. In partnership with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD), Bay Conservation Development Commission and the Association of Bay Area Governments, MTC sponsor s a transportation- oriented Climate Action Program, designed to reduce mobile source emissions through various strategies. The grant program provide s funding for pedestrian and bicycle projects through new Safe Routes to School and Safe Routes to Transit programs, with total funding expected to be approximately $400 million. As of April 2013 state Safe Routes to School funding is not yet finalized. This funding will be in addition to the state and federal Safe Routes to School programs and MTC’s existing Safe Routes to Transit program. Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TCFA) is a grant program administered by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD). The purpose of the program, which is funded through a $4 surcharge on motor vehicles registered in the Bay Area, is to fund projects and programs that will reduce air pollution from motor vehicles. Grant awards are generally made on a first-come, first-served basis to qualified projects. A portion of TFCA revenues collected in each Bay Area county is returned to that county's congestion management agency (CMA) for allocation (Alameda County Transportation Commission in Alameda County). Applications are made from local agencies directly to the CMAs, but must also be approved by the BAAQMD. TFCA County Program Manager Fund: http://www.baaqmd.gov/Divisions/Strategic-Incentives/Funding- Sources/TFCA/County-Program-Manager-Fund.aspx Alameda County’s Measure B sales tax increase of one-half of one percent was approved by Alameda County voters in 2000 to fund transportation improvements designated in the Alameda County 20-year Transportation Expenditure Plan. Measure B is administered by Alameda CTC and funds a wide variety of transportation projects, including the TransForm Safe Routes programs, Countywide Discretionary Fund Bicycle and Pedestrian Grant Program and Transit Oriented Development Grant Program. Alameda CTC grant program information: http://www.alamedactc.org/app_pages/view/4617 The last call for projects, the Gap Grant Cycle 5 Program, was in February 2013. Voters considered Measure B1 on the November 2012 ballot, which would have extended the Measure B sales tax in perpetuity (it is now scheduled to expire in March of 2022) and increased that tax by one-half of one percent to a total one percent sales tax. This measure required two-thirds approval and narrowly failed. Alameda County’s Measure F was approved by Alameda County voters in 2010 to increase vehicle registration fees by $10. Measure F is expected to generate $11 million per year for the county, which is administered through Alameda CTC and may be used for maintaining city and county roads, congestion relief efforts (including transit passes and station improvements), technology improvement and crosswalks, sidewalks, pedestrian-scale lighting and improvements to pedestrian and bicycle travel. Private/local funding for pedestrian projects comes primarily from development projects, either in the form of improvements constructed directly by developers, local funding mechanisms, or through development fee programs. Future road repaving, widening and construction projects are methods of upgrading or installing new pedestrian and bicycle facilities. To ensure that roadway construction projects provide pedestrian and bicycle facilities where needed, the project review process should include a review of the City’s proposed pedestrian and bicycle project list. Typically, new development projects are required to install sidewalks , crosswalk enhancements, bicycle facilities and parking or bus pullouts. MTC provides a typical routine accommodations checklist that describes the items that the City should look for when reviewing projects: http://www.mtc.ca.gov/planning/bicyclespedestrians/Routine_Accommod ation_checklist.pdf The City of Dublin’s Proposed Five Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) includes 32 projects within the current CIP time frame with a proposed funding allocation for 24 projects in Fiscal year 2012-2013 and 16 projects in Fiscal Year 2013 -2014. The City may use the CIP to formulate its budget, but it does not preclude “opportunistic projects,” such as a street resurfacing or development project. Opportunistic projects are unanticipated projects where the City may incorporate pedestrian facilities, even if the projects occur out of sequence. Assessment districts or special improvement districts can be established to provide finding for specific public improvement projects within the districts. Property owners in the districts are assessed for the improvements, and can make payments immediately or over a number of years. Street pavement, sidewalk repair, curb ramps and streetlights are commonly funded through assessment districts. Business Improvement Districts in commercial centers are funded this way. The 1982 California State Legislature Mello-Roos Community Facilities District Act allows communities to establish districts for special property tax assessments. Another potential local source of funding is developer impact fees, typically tied to trip generation and traffic impacts as a result of proposed projects. The City of Dublin currently has two fee programs in place: the Downtown Dublin Traffic Impact Fee and the Eastern Dublin Traffic Impact Fee. Both impact fee programs are expected to be updated in the near future, with the Downtown TIF slated for updating in 2014. Many of the bicycle and pedestrian improvement projects proposed in this Plan should be considered for inclusion in the updated fee program, with highest priority for inclusion given to the Tier One priority projects. Local Open Space Districts may float bonds that go to acquiring land or open space easements, which may also provide for some improvements to the local trail system. The East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD) is the local open space district in Alameda County. EBRPD was awarded a $10.2 million TIGER II grant in October 2012 to close critical gap s in the paved regional trail system. Local sales taxes, developer or public agency land dedications, community benefit payments, private donations, and fund-raising events are other local options to generate funding for pedestrian pr ojects. For example, Kaiser Permanente Community Health Initiatives grants are available to public agencies to support increased physical activity in Alameda County. Creation of these potential sources usually requires substantial local support. Grant funding is highly competitive and the following options should be considered by the City in pursuing the funding necessary to complete the proposed improvements:  For multi-agency and cross-jurisdictional projects, prepare joint applications with other local and regional agencies, such as the City of Pleasanton or Livermore, Alameda County, BART, and East Bay Regional Park District. Joint applications often increase the competitiveness of projects for funding; however, coordination amongst the participating jurisdictions is often challenging. The City should act as the lead agency, with a strong emphasis on coordination between participating jurisdictions and agencies (transit and public health organizations) on important projects to ensure they are implemented as quickly as possible.  Leverage existing dedicated funding sources as matching funds for State and Federal funding.  Include pedestrian and bicycle projects in the Downtown Dublin Transportation Impact Fee program. When traffic improvement mitigations are proposed to address level of service, potential secondary impacts to walking and bicycling at the intersection should be considered. Meeting the adopted policy goals for walkability, may require overriding traffic improvement mitigations and, instead, implementing proposed pedestrian and bicycle improvements at the intersection.  Continue to require construction of pedestrian facilities, such as sidewalks, street trees and marked crossings, and bicycle facilities, including proposed projects on new roadways, bicycle parking, and bicycle detection, as part of new development.  Continue to include proposed pedestrian and bicycle improvements as part of roadway projects involving widening, overlays, or other improvements. The City should also take advantage of private contributions, if appropriate, in developing the proposed system. This could include a variety of resources, such as volunteer labor during construction, right - of-way donations, or monetary donations towards specific improvement s associated with improving pedestrian and bicycle access near private developments. Projects should be funded opportunistically. If funding becomes available for a medium- or long-term project before a short-term priority project, the funding should be used. Easy “quick fix” projects should be funded before larger construction projects, especially when they can be included with other short-term priority projects.
