Re: 2021 TDA Article 3 Award – Washington Street Class II Bicycle Lane Project
Dear Victor Ortiz:
It is our pleasure to inform you that on November 3, 2021, the San Bernardino County
Transportation Authority (SBCTA) Board of Directors (Board) approved funding in the amount
of $223,200.00 from the Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 Bicycle and
Pedestrian Facilities Program for the Washington Street Class II Bicycle Lane Project. The
SBCTA Board set the period of time for completion of your project to comply with TDA
provisions, therefore this project must be completed by June 30, 2025.
Within six months (by May 3, 2022), or prior to requesting reimbursements of funds, whichever
comes first, the City of Colton must submit (1) a Claim Form and (2) and Authorizing
Resolution. Forms and a sample resolution can be found at www.gosbcta.com/tda3 under the
Claims section. Additionally, once all required forms are completed, they should be submitted
via www.gosbcta.com/tda3 under the section title Claims by clicking on the Submit Claim Form
& Resolution button.
Please note that the TDA Article 3 award is paid through a reimbursement process. The 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, the local match percentage of 10% ($24,800.00 of the estimated
$248,000.00 total) as identified in your grant application will apply to the adjusted total.
Additionally, sponsor agencies receiving an allocation of $200,000 or less shall be
reimbursed in arrears and upon proof of satisfactory project completion. Agencies receiving
an allocation of $200,000 or more may request progress payments; however, 10% of the
awarded funds shall be held by SBCTA until proof of satisfactory project completion.
Congratulations on submitting a successful grant application. We look forward to the timely
completion of your project. Should you have any questions please contact me at (909) 884-8276
or gkoblasz@gosbcta.com.
Sincerely,
Ginger Koblasz
