As a friendly reminder, the TDA Article 3 grant award is paid through a reimbursement process upon
project completion. It is required that a TDA claim form and supporting documentation of project
completion are submitted to SBCTA prior to disbursement of funds. 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 above and in your grant application. Please also keep in mind that staff expenses
may only be used to fulfill the local match requirement under select circumstances.
Upon project completion, please go to www.gosbcta.com/tda3 to access claim forms and instructions for

AGENDA ITEM: 10
Date: April 6, 2022
Subject:
Transportation Development Act Article 3: Extension Requests from San Bernardino County and
the Cities of Chino, Rialto, and Yucaipa
Recommendation:
That the Board, acting as the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority:
Approve additional deadline extensions for the following Transportation Development Act
Article 3 Awards:
San Bernardino County Fiscal Year (FY) 2000/2001 Santa Ana River Trail from 12/31/2024
to 12/31/2028.
Chino FY 2017/2018 Sidewalk Retrofitting from 10/4/2021 to 12/31/2023.

Yucaipa FY 2017/2018 Oak Glen Road Bicycle and Pedestrian Facility from 10/4/2021 to

Background:
San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) oversees the disbursement of two
percent (2%) of the Local Transportation Funds (LTF) made available to counties and cities for
facilities for the exclusive use of pedestrians and bicyclists, known as the Transportation
Development Act (TDA) Article 3 Program. In August 1999, the SBCTA Board of Directors
(Board) approved a policy that eighty percent (80%) of the Article 3 Program would be made
available for projects that improve bicycle and pedestrian facilities. The remaining twenty
percent (20%) would be available for projects that improve access to transit stops for pedestrians
and persons with disabilities.
According to the TDA Article 3 Guidelines approved by the Board on June 2, 2021, section
“IV. Deadline Extensions”:
“Two, one-year extensions may be granted at the discretion of SBCTA staff for
projects that are moving forward but cannot be completed by the award sunset date.
Extension requests must be submitted through the TDA Article 3 portal found at
https://gosbcta.com/tda3 (use Chrome or Firefox) at least THREE months before the
project sunset date, include appropriate justification for an extension, and provide a
revised project schedule with an expected completion date. Subsequent extensions are at
the discretion of the Board.”
All of the projects requesting extensions have previously been provided extensions and exceed
the two, one-year extensions SBCTA staff is authorized to approve. Below is a summary of each
request. For additional details, please see the attached request letters submitted by the award
recipients.
