EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As a part of the Annual Certification and Claims process, the Fresno County Transportation Authority (the "Authority") requires each eligible claimant of Measure C Extension funding to complete the certification and claims process. Adoption of the attached resolution and certification and claims forms ensures that Measure C distributions will continue uninterrupted after July 1, 2022, and also verifies the City's intent to use the funds in accordance with regulations and complete the prior fiscal year reporting requirements no later than November 15, 2022. The Authority estimates the City of Fresno's share of Measure C Extension funding for fiscal year 2022-2023 to be as follows: Regional Public Transit Program - Public Transit Agencies Fresno Area Express $15,117,352 Regional Transportation Program - Airports Fresno Airports $1,103,456 Local Transportation Sub Program Allocation - Fresno Street Maintenance $7,515,965 Local Transportation Sub Program Allocation - Fresno ADA Compliance $263,059 Local Transportation Sub Program Allocation - Fresno Flexible Funding $7,252,906 Local Transportation Sub Program Allocation - Fresno Pedestrian/Trails - Urban $1,820,552 Local Transportation Sub Program Allocation - Fresno Bicycle Facilities $461,020 The Local Transportation Program Pass-Through Revenues Certification and Claim forms, Attachments "A, B, C, D, E, F & G," must each be filed with the Authority and accompany the adopted resolution before the City can receive this funding. BACKGROUND Voters approved Measure C Extension on the November 7, 2006 ballot, which authorized the Authority to continue a 1/2 cent retail transaction and use tax over twenty years (between July 1, 2007 and June 30, 2027). The Sales Tax Extension is meant to provide new revenues for transportation improvements to each city within Fresno County on the basis of population, road miles and taxable sales. In order for the City of Fresno to receive its allocation, a separate claim form must first be filed for each sub-program as it relates to the Measure C Extension Program. Each claim form includes certifications for using the Funds in accordance with regulations. Approval of the accompanying resolution will authorize the filing of the required claim forms. The certifications require the City to: not use Measure C Extension Funds as a substitute for property taxes previously used for local transportation purposes; segregate property taxes from the City's other General Fund revenues used to support local transportation purposes; and, account for Measure C Funds separately from all other funds, pursuant to Public Utilities Code Section 142257. FISCAL IMPACT This resolution is a legal requirement of the Fresno County Transportation Authority for the City of Fresno to claim the Measure C Extension Local Transportation Funds for FY 2022-2023. Upon approval of this resolution, the funds will be allocated monthly on a proportional basis as funds are received and based upon adopted percentages for each city. These funds were anticipated and appropriated in the annual budget for fiscal year 2023. Adoption of this resolution will require no additional appropriations and has no impact on the General Fund.
