RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to submit a Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) grant application to the U.S. Department of Transportation for the San Pablo Avenue Complete Street/Bay Trail Gap Closure project, San Pablo area. (District V)
FISCAL IMPACT:
No local match is required.
BACKGROUND:
The County often seeks state and federal funding to augment local road funding, stretching local dollars to build improvements that would not be possible otherwise. The current opportunity is through the RAISE grant application administered by the U.S. Department of Transportation. Funds for the RAISE grant program are awarded on a competitive basis for surface transportation infrastructure projects that will have a significant local or regional impact. This program is referred to as the Local and Regional Project Assistance Program in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Applications must be submitted by April 14, 2022.
