Management Program Gas Tax Subventions.
BACKGROUND
In June 1990, California voters passed Proposition 111, under Section 2150 of the Streets and
Highways Code, establishing a gas tax for the purpose of funding transportation improvements
statewide. This provided a mechanism for the County to establish a region-wide CMP highway
system that would be eligible to receive statewide funding for roadway projects.

Growth Management/Congestion Management Program Annual
In November 1990, the voters of Orange County approved Measure M, the revised Traffic
Improvement and Growth Management Program (GMP), which established a one-half cent sales
tax over a 20-year period. In order to receive revenue from these programs for facility
~mprovements, Tustin and other Orange County cities must continue to meet certain
requirements.
Tustin's Measure M eligibility package for Fiscal Year 2000-2001 was approved by OCTA last
year. In order to maintain eligibility for these programs, the City is required to submit the following
items for the Fiscal Year 2001-2002 compliance submittal:
Seven Year Capital Improvement Plan (ClP)
The draft CIP is a seven-year projection of specific projects upon which Measure M funds may be
expended. Adoption of the seven year CIP is a requirement of both Measure M GMP and CMP.
Included in the plan are projects that could be submitted to OCTA during future Measure M call for
projects. The proposed CIP is currently in draft form until the formal adoption of the City's seven
year Capital Improvement Program as part of the 2001-2002 budget process. Following Council
adoption of the seven-year draft CIP, it will be finalized and forwarded to OCTA.
Maintenance of Effort (MOE)
A Maintenance of Effort report form, with a statement certifying that the City will meet its
Maintenance of Effort expenditure in accordance with Measure M requirements for Fiscal Year
2001-2002, must be submitted with a copy of the City's draft budget sections showing these
expenditures. Upon authorization, the certifications will be executed by the Director of Public
Works/City Engineer and submitted to OCTA.
Pavement Management Plan (PMP)
The City of Tustin has had a PMP in place since July 1989. In June 1997, a new five-year plan
was developed by Infrastructure Management System (IMS) and submitted to OCTA as part of the
Measure M compliance package. To comply with Measure M requirements, the City has to
maintain and update the plan every two years. The last update of the PMP was on June 30, 1999.
IMS is currently updating the PMP which will be completed by June 30, 2001 in accordance with
Measure M requirements. Certification of the local PMP will be executed by the Director of Public
Works/City Engineer and submitted, with an updated copy of the PMP to OCTA.
