CC - Item 4D - Agreement with LACMTA for Fulfillment Agreement for Valley Blvd. Project Co. 21031ROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: BEN KIM, CITY MANAGER DATE: JUNE 23. 2026 SUBJECT: AGREEMENT WITH THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY FOR ONE-TIME DISBURSEMENT OF PROPOSITION C FUNDS TO FULFILL UNPROGRAMMED SURFACE TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM — LOCAL BALANCE, AND ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 2026-29 TO APPROPRIATE THE FUNDS TO THE VALLEY BOULEVARD RESURFACING PROJECT NO. 21031 SUMMARY On April 24, 2025, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) Board approved using Proposition C funds for a one-time disbursement of funds to fulfill the City of Rosemead's unprogrammed Surface Transportation Program — Local (STP -L) balance. The amount that the City will receive is $153,186.00. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute Fulfillment Agreement No. 9200000000FUL24 with LACMTA to receive the funds. Staff is also recommending that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-29, which will appropriate the funds to the Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project. BACKGROUND Historically, LACMTA distributed approximately $31 million annually in federal Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) funds to local agencies through the STP -L program based on population. In 2021 and 2022, the federal government issued corrective actions to Caltrans and the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), determining that the population -based allocation method did not comply with federal STBG requirements. As a result, effective July 1, 2023, local agencies were unable to access or program their remaining unprogrammed STP -L balances through the Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP). To address this issue, the LACMTA Board approved the use of Proposition C funds on April 24, 2025, to fulfill outstanding unprogrammed STPL balances for eligible agencies, including $153,186 for the City of Rosemead. Under the proposed agreement, the City will receive $153,186 in Proposition C funds from LACMTA to support eligible transportation improvements associated with the Valley Boulevard AGENDA ITEM 4.1) City Council Meeting June 23, 2026 Page 2 of 3 Resurfacing Project. The agreement requires the City to comply with LACMTA reporting, auditing, and reimbursement requirements, including the submission of quarterly progress and expenditure reports. The total project cost within the proposed FY 26-27 budget is $5,262,000 and includes multiple funding sources, consisting of Proposition C Local Return, Gas Tax, RMRA-SB 1, Measure R Local Return, Measure M Local Return, Measure W, and STPL funds. Approval of the Fulfillment Agreement will allow the City to utilize an additional $153,186 in Prop C funds to increase the total approved project budget to $5,415,186. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council: 1. Authorize the City Manager to enter into a Fulfillment Agreement with LACMTA to provide Proposition C funding in the amount of $153,186, for use on the Valley Boulevard Resurfacing project; and 2. Adopt Resolution No. 2026-29 to appropriate $153,186.00 in Prop C funding to the Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project No. 21031. FINANCIAL IMPACT Funding for the Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project No. 21031 is included in the proposed FY 26-27 Budget in the amount of $5,262,000. An additional appropriation in the amount of $153,186, as outlined in Resolution 2026-29, is proposed to be utilized for project delivery. The total proposed project budget amounts to $5,415,186. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW City staff has determined, in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, that this project is not subject to CEQA review because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity will have a significant effect on the environment. STRATEGIC PLAN IMPACT This item is consistent with the City of Rosemead's Strategic Plan Goal C — Infrastructure and Facilities, which is to enhance streets, sidewalks, and public infrastructure; coordinate with relevant utility agencies regarding safety and enhancements; and modernize facilities by expanding the use of wireless network technology and renewable energy.
