DISCUSSION:
San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) is responsible for administering the San Bernardino County Measure I Program in which projects receive funding through Local Pass-through Program or Major Streets Program. The City of Fontana receives and utilizes funds through the two (2) Measure I Programs for transportation-related projects.
The Capital Project Needs Analysis (CPNA) list identifies the projects that will be funded by the Major Streets program with a five-year projection. Annually, SBCTA requires local jurisdictions to complete an update of these five-year programs identifying the projects to be funded. Projects include major roadway improvements such as Foothill Boulevard Widening (Hemlock to Almeria Avenues), Citrus Avenue Modifications at SR-210, Etiwanda Avenue at Slover Avenue Intersection Widening, and Westgate Improvements at Cherry Avenue. The use of Major Streets Program funds in the Measure I Program requires funds from the local Development Impact Fee to match at a ratio of 32.1%.
The projects named in the CPNA list are identified independently from the Local Pass-Through Program List, referred to as the Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) List that was approved by the City Council on July 22, 2025.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Under the Measure I Program, there are two areas of funding for projects: the Local Pass-Through Program identified as Fund 246 and the Major Streets Program identified as Fund 245. The Five-Year Local Pass-Through Program was approved by the City Council on July 22, 2025.
The Measure I Major Streets Program is reimbursed by SBCTA as work is completed. The required 32.1% match by the City will ultimately be funded by Development Impact Fees. The budgets for the projects listed on the CPNA will be established as each individual project moves forward, providing full funding details.
MOTION:
Approve staff recommendation.
