1. Approve the aCTA Go Local Program Study Cooperation Agreement by and
4183 between the Anaheim Redevelopment Agency and the City of Anaheim and
authorize the Executive Director, or designee, to execute all documents necessary
or convenient to give effect to the agreement. (See Council Item # 08)
Shohreh DuPuis, Transit Manager, reported Item 8 and Item 1 were complementary
matters requiring action by the Council and by the Redevelopment Agency. She stated
that for the first time, Orange County Transit Authority (OCT A) was turning transit planning
back to cities and asking the local cities in the county to initiate their own transit programs.
OCTA was awarding every city in the county $100,000 of Measure M funds to begin a
transit planning study. She explained Anaheim had worked with partnering with
neighboring cities and had met with Villa Park, Orange, Yorba Linda and Placentia to see
how to expand beyond the boundaries of Anaheim. To date, she noted, the city of Villa
Park agreed to provide their grant to Anaheim to lead the study and look at transit
opportunities in the city of Villa Park, Orange agreed to provide half of their grant toward
this study and Anaheim Redevelopment Agency was interested in looking at Anaheim
Canyon station to maximize its usage and recommended an award of another $100,000
toward the study. To complete a comprehensive study and to look at transit opportunities
in Anaheim, staff recommended approval of $200,000 of additional sales tax revenue
funds to be used for the City to create a comprehensive transit vision for Anaheim, looking
at opportunities of high capacity advanced technology transit alignments between the
resort area and the new multi-modal transportation center (ARTIC).
Chairman Pringle emphasized this was an initiative of OCT A and all cities in Orange
County had received $100,000 to come up with some discussion on how to bring about
transit use in their community. OCTA's concern was that municipalities not be pushed by
some regional command and control model as to how to move people within the cities and
to ensure programs originating elsewhere would not negatively impact their communities.
A part of this program was for cities to come up with ideas and submit them competitively
to aCTA and if Measure M was renewed in November, to competitively go after those
funds to bring about local transit connectors into those Metrolink hubs.
Agency Member Hernandez remarked Chairman Pringle sat on the aCTA board, along
with ten other Orange County city mayors and it was appropriate to take this action in
moving forward with this program.
Agency Member Chavez moved to approve Item No.1, seconded by Agency Member
Hernandez. Roll Call vote: Ayes - 5; Chairman Pringle, Agency Members: Chavez,
Galloway, Hernandez and Sidhu. Noes - O. Motion Carried
ADJOURNMENT:
There being no further business, Chairman Pringle adjourned the Anaheim
Redevelopment Agency meeting at 6:21 P.M.
