RE: 2017/18 Big Bear Blvd Shopping Center Bus Stop
Dear Mr. Harris:
This letter serves as a response to the City of Big Bear Lake’s request to extend the period of time to
complete bicycle/pedestrian project for the Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3. In Fiscal
Year 2017/18, the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) Board of Directors
approved grant awards to the Big Bear Blvd Shopping Center Bus Stop Project. This award was for
$87,000. SBCTA concurs with the request to extend the period of time to complete the project. The
revised project completion date for both projects is now December 31, 2021.
As a friendly reminder, the TDA Article 3 grant award is paid through a reimbursement process upon
completion of the project. It is required that a TDA claim form and supporting documentation of project
completion are submitted to SBCTA prior to disbursement of funds to the City of Big Bear Lake. The
TDA Article 3 grant award is for a maximum reimbursable amount. Should your project exceed the
maximum reimbursable amount, SBCTA will not provide any additional reimbursement. For projects
completed under the awarded amount, SBCTA will reimburse your agency for the TDA Article 3 share of
the project using the match percentage identified in your grant applications.
Upon completion of the projects, please contact Nancy Strickert, Transportation Programming Analyst, at
SBCTA for the TDA Claim Form and filing instructions for the Transit Stop Access project. Nancy can
be reached at (909) 884-8276 or nstrickert@gosbcta.com. Should you need additional information
regarding this matter, please contact Cameron Brown, Senior Planner, at (909) 884-8276 or

Sincerely,
Cameron Brown
Senior Planner
