"CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION .~ - , STAFF REPORT At the Council meeting of 4-06-78, authorization was granted to execute a Local Agency-State Agreement for Federal-Aid Projects No. 08-5033. This agreement set forth the conditions under which Federal-Aid funds are apportioned to local agencies and expended on street and highway improvement projects. A program supplement is entered into by local agencies and the Department of Transpor- tation for each project financed with Federal-Aid funds apportioned by the Federal Highway Administration. An updated Master Agreement, Administering Agency - State Agreement for Federal-Aid Projects, has been prepared. by the Department of Transportation and submitted for approval. This updated agreement reflects the new provisions of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA), and the re- engineered State-Local Assistance procedures. The proposed agreement covers the general requirements of all Federal-Aid projects relative to the prosecution of projects and the maintenance of the completed facilities. Since execution of this Master Agreement is a requirement for receipt of Federal-Aid Funds, through the Federal Highway Ad- ministration, we recommend that the updated agreement be approved. 4-08-97 7\5~0264 e MASTER AGREEMENT ADMINISTERING AGENCY-STATE AGREEMENT FOR FEDERAL-AID PROJECTS 08 District Citv of San Bernardino Administering Agency Agreement No. 08-5033 This AGREEMENT, made effective this day of , 1997, is by and between the City of San Bernardino, hereinafter referred to as "ADMINISTERING AGENCY," and the State of California, acting by and through the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), hereinafter referred to as "STATE."
