RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve Master Funding Agreement No. C-1-2786
with the Orange County Transportation Authority for M2 Comprehensive Transportation
Funding Programs and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Agreement on
behalf of the City.
FISCAL IMPACT
Master Funding Agreement No. C-1-2786 provides the mechanism for funding City capital
projects under the M2 CTFP and Local Fair Share Programs.
DISCUSSION
Renewed Measure M (M2) is a 30-year, multi-billion dollar program extension of the
original Measure M which was approved in 1990. M2, which was approved by voters on
November 7, 2006, includes a new slate of planned projects and programs. It is
comprised of a number of components, including Project O (Regional Capacity Program),
Project P (Regional Signal Synchronization Program), Project Q (Local Fair Share
Program), and the Transit Program (Projects S, T, V, and W).
The Orange County Local Transportation Authority Ordinance No. 3 outlines the M2
Transportation Ordinance and Investment Plan to fund transportation facility and service
improvement programs for the 30-year period, which began on April 1, 2011. The OCTA
Board of Directors approved the CTFP Guidelines on March 22, 2010. Pursuant to the
guidelines, the OCTA Board approved a Master Funding Agreement with local agencies on
June 27, 2011 to be followed by local agency City Council agreement approvals at later
dates.

The Agreement defines the specific terms, conditions and funding responsibilities between
the OCTA and local agencies for CTFP and Local Fair Share Program Net Revenues
under M2. As outlined in the Agreement, CTFP funds are allocated to eligible jurisdictions
on a competitive basis and Local Fair Share Program Net Revenues are distributed on a
formula basis.
Attachment A to the Agreement is a "Project List" which includes projects awarded under
application calls for CTFP projects. Attachment A will be amended from year-to-year in the
future under a Letter Agreement which adds new projects to the Master Funding
Agreement as approved under the competitive call for projects. Currently the City of Tustin
has no projects listed in Attachment A under the 2010 call for projects.
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved this Agreement as to form.
