Re: Assessment of Request for l 0th Street
�d to Highland Avenue
Dear Mr, G ant:
The Federal Transit Administration(FTA)has completed its review of the letter from the Omnitrans,
dated May 6,2015,requesting concurrence to apply unexpended Section 5307 grant funds on
pavement rehabilitation of"E"Sheet,from 300' nortlierly of 10th Street to Highland Avenue
(Pavement Project)to benefit the E Street Corridor Bus Rapid Transit Project(referred to as sbX).
FTA concurs with Omnitrans request for the Pavement Project in the amount not to exceed
$2,656,692 of the total Pavement Project estimate. This concurrence would allow Omnitrans to
incur approximately$4,682,000 on activities associated with resurfacing,restoration,and
rehabilitation of approximately 1.1 miles of E Street. The$4,682,000 represents Omnitrans' total
cost forecast for the project that includes work performed by the general contractor(including a 15
percent construction contingency),the City of San Bernardino,and Oinnitrans.
FTA expects the following stipulations be addressed with regards to the federal participation in the
project:
1. FTA federal share not to exceed$2,656,692;
2. The City of San Bernardino provides Omnitrans with formal commitments that additional
funding will be made available to complete the proposed project,should costs exceed the
current budget;
3. The City of San Bernardino should review the current design to ensure that it is based on an
appropriate traffic index and,as such,is a suitable technical remedy for the bus lanes. We
expect that the design and construction of this section will preserve and extend the service life
of the existing facility and on safety.
4. All funds will be expended in accordance with all applicable federal and FTA requirements.
Please contact Roxana Hernandez at(415)744-2658 with any questions you may have about
proceeding under the authority to incur costs provided in this letter.
Sincerely,
Leslie T.Rogers

San Bernardino,CA 02411 July 27, 2015
Subject: E Street Pavement Rehabilitation, 10`h Street to Highland Avenue
Dear Mr. Graham:
The City of San Bernardino (City) acknowledges and appreciates the commitment that the Federal
Transit Administration (FTA) has made, via letter dated May 20, 2015, to assist in funding needed
roadway rehabilitation improvements to E Street.
As a condition of funding the referenced improvements,FTA provided stipulations associated with the
project. In order to support and provide its own affirmation to the project, the City commits to the
following, in the order as listed per the FTA letter:
1. Federal share cap at $2,656,692: City supports this cap, as a component of the overall funding
strategy provided by Omnitrans;
2. City is pursuing formal approval by its Council, for a budgetary allocation,to cover unexpected
project costs, should project costs exceed the low bid plus 15% contingency. Further, City will
also request an allocation of funds for contingency purposes, should issues develop during
construction that require out of scope work(not part of the plans and special provisions);
3. The City's traffic index for the project has been verified, and due to conservativeness of design,
should more than adequately preserve and extend the roadway service life; and
4. Through Omnitrans, the City will strive to ensure that all funds be expended in accordance with
the approved plans and special provisions,and all applicable federal and FTA requirements.
The City looks forward to the immediate start of the construction contract, and the improvement in
regional transportation this project will help to provide to the area.
Questions may be directed to Mr. Emilio Murga,Interim City Engineer, at(909) 384-3307.
Very truly yours,
Allen arker,City Manager
City of San Bernardino
