Adopt a resolution authorizing City Manager to sign and execute a Primary Grant Agreement (PGA) <br />with the San Mateo County Transportation Authority for future Measure A and W funding over the <br />next 10 years; and <br />2. By motion, authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute project-specific supplemental <br />agreements for allocation of Measures A and W grants over the next 10 years. <br />STRATEGIC PLAN GUIDING PRINCIPLE <br />Transportation <br />BACKGROUND <br />Measure A: <br />In 1988, San Mateo County voters approved the Original Measure A, a 20-year half-cent sales tax to fund <br />and leverage additional funding for transportation projects and programs in San Mateo County. After <br />approval of Measure A, the San Mateo County Transportation Authority (TA) was created to manage and <br />administer the sales tax revenues generated in conformance with the Transportation Expenditure Plan <br />(TEP). The 1988 sales tax expired on December 31, 2008. In 2004, San Mateo County voters reauthorized <br />the Measure A half-cent sales tax and adopted a new TEP for an additional 25 years (from January 1, 2009 <br />through December 31, 2033). The TEP established funding categories for Transit; Highway Improvements; <br />Local Streets/Transportation; Grade Separations; Pedestrian and Bicycle Improvements; and Alternative <br />Congestion Relief projects. <br />6.C. - Page 1 of 44 <br />19
