Dear Ms. Jaiswal:
On July 10, 2019, the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) Board of Directors
approved funding from the Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 Transit Stop Access
Program for bus stop improvement projects in the amount of $193,126.
In the original award letter it was stated that these projects had a 20% local share that would needed to be
shown in order to obtain reimbursements for work. Due to the limitations on Federal Transit
Administration (FTA) funding, SBCTA will not be requiring Omnitrans to have any local match
requirement for these bus stop projects. However, all reimbursements that are requested from SBCTA as
part of this award must be used toward projects that were included in the 2019 award letter. The total
amount of funding will remain the same at $193,126. The deadline for completion of projects, where this
funding will be applied, will remain at December 31, 2022.
For questions on reimbursement and next steps for obtaining your allocation and claim form instructions,
please contact Vanessa Schoenewald at vschoenewald@gosbcta.com.
We look forward to the rapid implementation of your projects. Should you have any questions please
contact me at (909) 884-8276 or cbrown@gosbcta.com.
Sincerely,
Cameron Brown
Senior Planner
