Reduction, Air Quality, and Port Security Bond Act of 2006 (Proposition 1B) funds available in

BACKGROUND
In November 2006, California voters approved Proposition 1B, the Highway Safety, Traffic
Reduction, Air Quality, and Port Security Bond Act of 2006, (Prop 113) to provide $19.925
billion in bond funds for a variety of transportation priorities. These priorities include $2 billion
for cities and counties to fund the maintenance and improvement of local transportation facilities.
The 2009 Budget Act and Chapter 1, Statutes of 2009, appropriate a total of $700 million of
these Prop I funds in 2009 -10. Of this amowrt, $260 million has been allocated to cities and
$440 million to counties. The State Controller's Office (SCO) is responsible for determining the
share that a city or county is allocated. The county shares are based on the number of registered
vehicles and the number of miles of road in the county, while city shares are based on
population.
In order to receive these funds, a county or city must first approve and submit a plan for use of
the amount of funds available in 2009 -10 to the Department of Finance (Finance), and Finance
will notify the SCO which counties and cities have'met this reporting requirement. The City of
Cupertino is eligible for a 2009 -10 allocation of approximately $820,000. The funds must be
expended by June 30, 2013.
Staff recommends that the City's plan to use -1:he Prop 1B funds designate that the 2609 -10
allocation be used for pavement maintenance projects in the Pavement Management portion of
the City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Staff will make the appropriate CIP allocation
recommendations.
