Resolution, Approval of Application for SB 821 (OCTC) Regional Grant
Funds (Design of Vereda Bikeway Railroad Undercrossing)
Each year the Orange County Transportation Commission distributes grant money for the
design, construction and maintenance of bikeways.
Staff has prepared the attached grant to obtain funding for the design of the bicycle trail
undercrossing the railroad bridge at San Juan Creek. The undercrossing is a part of the
overall design and construction package for the proposed realignment of the railroad
bridge. Cost for the design, being prepared by Boyle Engineering, is estimated at
$20,000.
As part of the grant package, a resolution approving the grant application must be
included in the submittal.
NOTIFICATION

ORANGE COUNTY SB 821 FUND PROGRAM
Each year, the Orange County Transportation Commission selects priority bikeway projects
for funding through the Commission's Regional Bikeway Program. Eligible projects will be
evaluated and prioritized based on the criteria listed below. Upon completion of this form by
your agency, OCTC staff will assign points and the TAC Steering Committee will establish a
priority list of projects with the available regional funds.
The Commission has adopted the policy that approved applicants will have two (2) years to
spend regional SB 821 funds allocated to them. After that time, unexpended funds must be
reimbursed to the countywide pot for redistribution.

If your agency is submitting more than one (1) candidate project this year for regional funds,
please identify your agency priority for this project relative to your other regional submittals:
Priority # of
I. DETERMINATION OF ELIGIBILITY
To qualify for regional funds, a project must be a functional segment of a
regional trail included on the Master Plan of Countywide Bikeways.
SB 821 funds will be awarded only to those projects ready for construction
within two (2) years. Preliminary engineering will not be funded without
construction. Preliminary engineering is an eligible reimbursable expense,
however, for projects approved for construction.
A Is the proposed project currently on the Master Plan of Countywide
Bikeways?
B. Will the project be ready to encumber construction funds within
two (2) years?
If the answer to either question is "no", then the project is ineligible
for regional funding. If both answers are yes, please continue to complete
this form.
II. PRIORITIZATION CRITERIA
Eligible projects will be evaluated and ranked according to the criteria and
point system described below. Applicants are responsible for ensuring their
applications are complete and contain sufficiently detailed information to
allow evaluation by the Commission.

F. Project Merit Evaluation (40 points maximum)
Each project may be awarded up to 40 points depending on each evaluator's
judgment of the project's direct and indirect benefits, after giving
consideration to the following factors:
o Safety, e.g., severity of structural failure on existing
bikeways, removing on -street bicycle traffic which conflicts
with vehicular traffic
o Volume of bicyclists using the facility
o Project readiness, e.g., how soon construction will begin/end
o Prior commitment, e.g., SB 821 funded project requiring more
funding to complete construction
o Accessibility to users
o Class of facility, e.g., off-road, on -road
o Cost per mile

ATTACHMENT "A"
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project consists of the design segment of an off-road, County Master Plan bike trail
undercrossing the San Juan Creek railroad bridge. This segment will create a safe
crossing of the railroad as trail users are now crossing (illegally) at an unimproved at -
grade crossing adjacent to a blind curve of the track.
This is also the final segment of the Vereda Bike Trail which follows San Juan Creek
from the City's westerly limits with Dana Point to the east boundary with the County.
This trail will ultimately connect Doheny Beach State Park with Ronald Caspers Regional
Park off Ortega Highway a distance of approximately 25 miles.
The trail will connect approximately 8,000 residents, four schools and the cities main
commercial areas east of the bridge with the approximately 10,000 residents, two schools
and beach areas to the west.
The design of this trail is a part of and codependent upon the design of the proposed
realigned railroad bridge. Both are now being designed by Boyle Engineering, however
the project has been slowed due to funding shortfalls. To date it is estimated that the
design, now in progress, will be complete by May of 1992 with review and approval by the
four involved agencies by November of 1992. Actual construction should begin at the end
of the rainy season, April 1993.
