Dear Ms. Allen:
Congratulations, it is our pleasure to inform you that the San Bernardino Associated Governments (SANBAG) Board of
Directors approved funding from the Transportation Development Act (TDA), Article 3 Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities
Program, for your Orange Blossom Trail – Mountain View Avenue to California Street Project in the amount you
requested of $918,722. Regrettably, your second priority preference project submittal, Bicycle Lane Upgrade Project, did
not score high enough to be awarded TDA Article 3 Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities Program funds.
The TDA Article 3 award is considered a grant and is paid through a reimbursement process and the filing of a TDA
claim, including proper documentation of project expenditure. The award is for a maximum reimbursable amount.
Should your project exceed the maximum reimbursable amount, SANBAG will not provide any additional
reimbursement. For projects completed under the awarded amount, SANBAG will reimburse your agency for the LTF
share of the project using the match percentage identified in your grant application. The SANBAG Board also set the
period of time for completion of your project to comply with TDA provisions, therefore the project funded under this
letter of award must be completed by June 30, 2016.
Enclosed you will find a copy of your allocation and claim form instructions. Your grant allocation amount has been
submitted to the auditor controller. At the time of reimbursement request, a completed claim form must be submitted to
SANBAG as well as additional documentation supporting your request. Progress payments may be requested for project
awards over $200,000. Reimbursement requests may be emailed to Monica Morales at mmorales@sanbag.ca.gov.
Again, congratulations on being successful with your candidate project. We look forward to the rapid implementation of
your project. Should you have any questions please contact me at (909) 884-8276 or vjezik@sanbag.ca.gov.
Sincerely,
Vanessa Jezik
Transportation Programming Analyst
