| Dept.: | Public Works
| Subject: | Approval of Fiscal Year 2023-24 Measure M2 Seven-Year Capital Improvement Plan; and adoption of a Resolution ensuring conformance of the City’s Circulation Element with the Orange County Transportation Authority Master Plan of Arterial Highways in concurrence with the City’s existing Mitigation Fee Program. (Action Item) | Date: | 6/13/2023 |
|
| | | | | | | | OBJECTIVE
For City Council to approve the FY 2023-24 Measure M2 (M2) Seven-Year Capital Improvement Plan (7-YR CIP), and to adopt a Resolution ensuring conformance of the City’s Arterial Section of the Circulation Element with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH), and reaffirm concurrence with the existing Mitigation Fee Program. |
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND
Every year, Orange County local agencies are required to submit approved documentation and resolutions to OCTA to maintain M2 eligibility for Local Fair Share appropriations and competitive grant funding. This year, there are three (3) components to this annual review. These include: (1) the adoption of a 7-YR CIP, (2) conformance of the City’s Circulation Element with OCTA’s MPAH, and (3) concurrence with the City’s Mitigation Fee Program. |
| | | | | | | | DISCUSSION
The following is a brief summary of the three requirements mentioned above.
- Seven-Year Capital Improvement Plan – Per OCTA’s eligibility requirements, the City must develop a 7-YR CIP, including all transportation capital projects scheduled to use M2 revenues. All construction costs and funding sources must also be identified. The City, however, is not obligated to deliver any identified projects. If any changes are made, City Council has to amend the 7-YR CIP accordingly.
- Conformance with the Master Plan of Arterial Highways – the MPAH serves as a countywide planning tool to coordinate the county’s arterial highway network. The City is required to preserve a minimum number of through lanes on the City’s arterial network, as it is identified on the General Plan’s Circulation Element.
- Concurrence with the Mitigation Fee Program – Biennially, City Council is required to adopt a resolution reaffirming concurrence with the City’s Mitigation Fee Program. This program is based on a nexus study, linking development activity to infrastructure impacts and their related costs, resulting in the determination of a fee schedule.

The Measure M2 Seven-Year Capital Improvement Plan is consistent with the City's proposed FY2023-24 Capital Improvement Plan. City is projecting to receive $3.7 million in M2 revenues in Fiscal Year 2023-24. |
