3 MEMORANDUM Date: January 14, 2016 To: From: Subject: Transportation Expenditure Plan Steering Committee Matt Fell, Transportation Planning Manager Local funding distribution formula and amount At the November 2 meeting a formula was presented for distributing the Local Projects funding to the seven jurisdictions. The decision-maker for these funds would be the local elected City Council (for the cities) or the Board of Supervisors (for the County). The methodology of this formula is to: 1. allocate a amount to each jurisdiction 2. allocate the remainder on the average of the jurisdiction s share of the total countywide population and their share of the total countywide public road miles Distribution shares for step 2 are shown in the last column ( 50/50 % ) of the following table: Jurisdiction Population Pop. % Road Miles Miles % 50/50 % Atwater 29,023 11% 84 4% 7.2% Dos Palos 5,023 2% 25 1% 1.5% Gustine 5,618 2% 21 1% 1.5% Livingston 13,735 5% 38 2% 3.4% Los Banos 37,145 14% 123 5% 9.6% Merced 81,722 31% % 21.8% County 93,868 35% 1,779 75% 55.1% Total 266,134 2,375 Population from: Department of Finance estimate for January 1, 2015, published May Road Miles from: California 2013 Public Road Data, published November 2014.
