Subject:
Recommendation to Adopt a Resolution to Authorize
the city Manager to Apply for Pedestrian and
Bicycle Facility Funds
Introduction
This report requests the city council to adopt the attached
resolution which authorizes the City Manager to apply to the
Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) for $25,568
in Pedestrian and Bicycle Facility Funds which will be used to
install bicycle parking lockers and racks at various locations in
the city.
Background
California Senate Bill 821 provides that 2% of each County's
total annual transportation funds be set aside for the
development of bicycle and pedestrian facilities. Each year a
proportionate amount of funds is allocated to local agencies by
the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) for the
purpose of pedestrian and bicycle facilities. One use of the
funds is to encourage the use of bicycling for recreation and
commuting.
Staff proposes to use these funds for installation of bicycle
storage lockers and bicycle racks at various locations throughout
the city. The lockers will be installed where maximum protection

against theft and the elements is required. Attached is a
photograph of a bicycle storage locker.
Financial/Budqet Impact
The City's proportionate share of Pedestrian and Bicycle Facility
funds for FY 1988-89 is $25,568. An application will be submitted
to SCAG for funds in this amount. Upon approval of the grant
funds, budget revenue account 20-932-311-000-000 should be
revised to reflect $25,568 and funds in the amount of $25,568
should be appropriated in account #20-770-416-000-954.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the city council approve the attached
resolution which authorizes the City Manager to apply for $25,568
of SCAG Pedestrian and Bicycle Facility Funds
for the
installation of bicycle racks and parking lockers at various
locations, and upon grant approval, appropriate $25,568 to
#20-770-416-000-954 and revise the budget revenue account
#20-932-311-000-000 to reflect $25,568.
