RECIPIENT' s attached application for funding, and (ii) written proposal for how any unused
FUNDING AMOUNT will be used for a proposal to support the PROJECT or other use that

the Transportation Development Act (California Public Utilities Code section 99200 et seq.),
which provides that funding shall be allocated for the construction, including related engineering

(3)this AGREEMENT. In the case of any conflict between this Agreement and any of its
attachments, the body of this Agreement shall govern. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the

approved PROGRAM projects. RECIPIENT will not be reimbursed until the PROJECT is
accepted as complete by RCTC following the submission of the PROGRAM funding claim form
completed electronically via the Rivtrack system. In the event additional time is needed for the
completion of the PROJECT, RECIPIENT may submit a time extension request electronically
via the Rivtrack system. Before and after PROJECT photographs must be uploaded with the

large retail center on the west side of the Paloma Wash, pedestrians and bicyclists currently must walk south to reach La Piedra Road and then
north on Haun Road. Depending on starting location, this path would be approximately 0.7 to 2 miles and would require travel along very highly
traveled major corridors. Alternatively, again depending on starting location, pedestrians and bicyclists could travel north along Sherman
Road/Town Center Drive, and then west on Newport Road, and south on Haun Road to reach the same retail center. This route is just under one
mile. Newport Rood is one of the most dangerous arterials in the City for pedestrians and bicyclists to travel. By adding the Palomo Wash
Pedestrian Bridge, pedestrians and bicyclists would have a safe path to reach retail, medical, and bank facilities on the west side of the Paloma
Wash. The bridge would also reduce their travel length and time and open up active transportation options to the large residential population on
the Paloma Wash's east side. Additionally, the Holland Rd Overpass project located less than 1 mile south of the Project area is currently in
construction and is expected to be completed by Fall 2024. This overpass will allow for pedestrians and bicyclists to cross over the 1-215 to
access the Mt. San Jacinto College Menifee Valley campus and Menifee Valley Campus Library, which are located approximately 0.5 miles north
of the east end of the Holland Rood Overpass. The pedestrian bridge would connect newer housing developments on the west side of the
Paloma Wash to Haun Road on the east side of the Palomo Wash, providing multimodal access to the Holland Road Overpass. Mt. San Jacinto
College Menifee Valley Campus has also recently completed a 5,000-seat stadium called the MSJC Athletics & Kinesiology Complex which will
host games and other events.

' F. Safety (max 15 points), _ . . . . -. - -- --. . --
Describe the extent to which the proposed project will increase safety for the non-motorized public. Additionally,
explain any safety enhancement features included in the project scope, such as rectangular rapid flashing beacons,
bicycle box (see https://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/provencountermeasures/). Include information about project
characteristics such as: no existing shoulder within project limits, no existing/planned sidewalk or bikeway adjacent to
the project, etc. Applicants may wish to consider including documented pedestrian/bicycle collision or injury history,
most current and valid 85th percentile speed of motorized traffic in project limits, photos of existing safety hazards the
project will address, existing pedestrian/bicycle traffic counts, student attendance figures for school served by project.
Additionally generate a collision heat map for the project site using collision data from the last ten years. Heat map
can be generated using the ATP Maps & Summary interface from TIMS (https://tims.berkeley.edu/) or Crossroads.
Upload map in section J.
The Paloma Wash Pedestrian Bridge project will not be located on a roadway, so there will be no existing shoulder within the project limits, there
are no plans for sidewalk or biking routes adjacent to the Project area, and the Project will allow pedestrians and bicyclists to travel to major
attractions without traversing highly traveled motorized roadways including Newport Road, La Piedra Road, and Haun Road. As indicated on the
Pedestrian and Bicycle Collisions data map identified as Exhibit C, the area surrounding the Project location is rated as medium to high collision
frequency. The speed limit on Newport Road and Haun Road is 45 mph. There is a school on the south side of La Piedra Road (Santa Rosa
Academy) south of the project area, so the speed limit is reduced here during school hours. Much of the area along Newport Road and La Piedra
Road do not currently have bicycle facilities, requiring bicyclists to travel along pedestrian-intended sidewalks. Santa Rosa Academy currently
reports just over 1,500 students enrolled. This school is located less than half a mile south of the Project area. This Project will provide a
multimodal connection to the future Holland Road Overpass, which will ultimately allow commuters access to the Mt. San Jacinto College
Menifee Valley campus, which currently serves between 15,000 and 20,000 students. There is also a new middle school located just a mile north
of the Project area. The Kathryn Newport Middle School will be accessible in less than half a mile by bicycle or pedestrian commuters with the
construction of the proposed pedestrian bridge. Student enrollment at Kathryn Newport Middle School is unknown at this time as the school
plans to open in August 2023.
G. Multimodal Access (1 point each, max 6 points)
In a project vicinity map, identify all the bus routes, Metrolink stations, park-and-ride facilities, bicycle lanes, sidewalks
or crosswalks improved by the proposed project within a ¾ mile or a 2-mile radius.
For pedestrian projects, these amenities need to be within ¾ mile radius to be eligible. For bicycle or multi-use trail
projects, amenities need to be within a 2-mile radius. Each amenity will receive l point.
On the map, provide a ¾ mile buffer or a 2-mile buffer surrounding the project site. Maps without the marked buffer will
receive half of its eligible points. Upload map in section J.
Below, discuss how the project along with its nearby amenities encourage mul ti-modalism. Briefly summarize and list
all the bus stops, Metrolink Stations, park-and-ride facilities, missing bicycle or sidewalks, or crosswalks enhanced by
the proposed project and indicate if the items are existing or planned.
Riverside Transit Authority bus routes 74 and 61 have several stops located within a one-mile radius of the Project area: -Newport FS Haun -
Newport FS Town Center There is also a trail within the Project area called the Paloma Wash Trail, located between Newport Road and Holland
Road, which was completed a few years ago. This Project will provide pedestrian and bicycle access to this trail. This Project would create safe
pedestrian and bicycle access between the large housing developments located on the west side of the Paloma Wash to commercial and
necessity facilities located on the east side of the Paloma Wash, which is currently missing.

Subject: 2023 TDA Article 3 (SB 821) Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities Program -Paloma Wash
Pedestrian Bridge Project Application
Dear Ms. Guizado,
The City of Menifee received your 2023 TDA Article 3 (SB 821) Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities Call
for Projects and is pleased to submit an application for the Paloma Wash Pedestrian Bridge Project.
The Project would construct a new approximately 14 feet wide by 174 feet long prefabricated
pedestrian bridge over the Paloma Wash flood control channel connecting the west side of the
channel at Central Park to abundant amenities located on the east side of the channel along Haun
Road. The Project will meet ADA requirements and flood control water surface elevation criteria, and
include handrailing along the bridge, abutments, retaining walls, ADA ramps, and concrete walkways
beyond the bridge, while incorporating architectural features such as sunshades and lighting to
create a visual connection to nearby Central Park.
The City has been working diligently on this Project and has completed the PA&ED phase, is
approaching completion of the PS&E phase, and is currently working through minor ROW
(easement) with one property owner. The Project is anticipated to be ready for construction in
January of 2024. Because the City is expecting to enter the construction phase next fiscal year, we
respectfully request funding support to fully realize this Project in the amount of $690,120. The total
anticipated construction cost for the Project is $2,950,066, of which the City has programmed
$2,259,946 from local funding sources and American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) grants in the
upcoming 2023/24 fiscal year through its five-year Capital Improvement Program.
The Project will encourage active transportation by providing a safe path for pedestrians and
bicyclists to access retail, banking, and medical services on the west side of the Paloma Wash, while
promoting economic growth in the City of Menifee. We humbly request your consideration in funding
this much-needed regionally beneficial Project to improve the quality of life in our community.

Subject: Pre-Construction Survey for Burrowing Owl and other Nesting Bird Species
INTRODUCTION
Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions, Inc. (Wood) conducted a clearance survey for
nesting bird species and burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia) protected by the Migratory Bird
Treaty Act (MBTA) at the CIP 20-13 Paloma Wash Pedestrian Bridge Project, City of Menifee,
Riverside County, California.
A nesting bird survey and burrowing owl clearance survey was conducted by Wood senior
biologist Dale Hameister on 12 September 2022. The project is north of La Piedra Road, south of
Newport Road, east of Village Terrace Drive, and west of Haun Road. The project area is within
the Paloma Wash flood control channel and is bordered by a recreation trail and city park to the
west, and Haun Road and a shopping center to the west. Geotechnical investigation is scheduled
to begin on 13 September, 2022 along the recreation trail.
BACKGROUND
The Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBT A) was passed in 1918 to combat over-hunting and poaching
of native bird species. The Act makes it a federal crime to "take" birds or bird parts, including
feathers, or to kill birds without special permission from the Secretary of the Interior. The MBTA
also prohibits any person from using bait to take migratory birds, or for someone to hunt in areas
they know or reasonably should know are baited. Only "native" migratory bird species are
protected under the MBTA.
The burrowing owl is a small, tan, short-tailed, ground-dwelling owl that occupies underground
burrows. A member of the Strigidae (typical owls family), this species is associated with
grasslands and other arid open terrain throughout much of the western United States. Burrowing
1
owls are opportunistic in their selection of burrows, typically utilizing the burrows of small
mammals, but also use drainpipes, culverts, and other suitable natural or man made cavities at or
below ground level. In California, the species often occurs in association with colonies of the
California ground squirrel (Otospermophilus beechey1), where it makes use of the squirrel's
burrows. The entrance of the burrow is often adorned with animal dung, feathers, debris, and
other small objects. The species is active both day and night and may be seen perching
conspicuously on fence posts or standing at the entrance of their burrows. Due to the
characteristic fossorial habits of burrowing owls, nest burrows are a critical component of their
habitat.
In Southern California, burrowing owls are not only found in undisturbed natural areas, but also
fallow agricultural fields, margins of active agricultural areas, livestock farms, airports, and vacant
lots. Despite their apparent tolerance to human activities, burrowing owl populations in California
are clearly declining and, if declines continue, the species may qualify for listing under the state
and/or federal Endangered Species Acts (CDFG 1995). The declines in burrowing owl populations
are attributed to loss and degradation of habitat, to on-going residential and commercial
development, and to rodent control programs. The burrowing owl is currently designated a
California Species of Concern (CSC) by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW
2020), managed as a Bird of Conservation Concern by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS), is considered "sensitive" by the U. S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and
protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBT A) and California Fish and Game Code Sections
3503, 3503.5, 3513, and 3800. Any impacts to burrowing owls and/or their occupied burrows may
be considered significant under the MBTA and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA),
requiring specific mitigation often in the form of the purchase, establishment, and management of
on-or off-site conservation areas in perpetuity.
The California Burrowing Owl Consortium (CBOC) developed the Burrowing Owl Survey Protocol
and Mitigation Guidelines to meet the need of uniform standards when surveying burrowing owl
populations and evaluating impacts from development projects (CBOC 1997). In 1995 the
California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) issued the Staff Report on Burrowing Owl
Mitigation to all its regional managers to ensure consistency in standards, policies, and regulatory
mandates relating to the burrowing owl (CDFG 1995). Due to the continued decline of burrowing
owl populations statewide and as an attempt to reverse this trend, the CDFG issued more
effective, viable, coordinated and concerted approach to burrowing owl conservation actions with
the release of an updated Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation (CDFG 2012).
METHODS
The survey was conducted on 12 September 2022 by Wood Senior Biologist Dale Hameister. All
areas of the Biological Study Area (BSA), which included the entire project area, were surveyed
on-foot utilizing parallel pedestrian belt transects spaced approximately 1 O meters (33 feet) apart.
A 500-foot buffer surrounding the site was also surveyed where access was possible, in
accordance with protocol established by the California Burrowing Owl Consortium (7 997) and the
Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation (CDFW 2012) and other detectable bird nests.
Binoculars were used to visually inspect potential perching locations (i.e., rocks, debris, dirt
mounds) as well as the entrances to all on-site mammal burrows, debris providing potential shelter
(i.e., piles of rip-rap rock, drainpipes), search for other bird nests and to identify other bird species
observed. Mammal burrows were carefully examined for evidence of burrowing owl occupation
(i.e., animal dung, feathers, whitewash, pellets, debris, etc.). Representative photographs were
also taken (Appendix A.)
2
RESULTS
Weather conditions during the survey were conducive for owl and other nesting bird activities.
Skies were partly cloudy. Temperatures were 72-76 degrees Fahrenheit. Winds were light (1-3
mph).
The BSA consist of the fenced Paloma Wash flood control channel between a recreation trail
adjacent to a city park, and Haun Avenue. Vegetation consists of disturbed non-native grasslands.
Several mammal burrows observed were likely made by California ground squirrel
( Otospermophi/us beecheyt).
No bird nests or bird species displaying nesting behavior were detected.
Wildlife observed or detected include mourning dove (Zenaida macroura), common raven (Corvus
corax), house finch (Haemorhous mexicanus), and California ground squirrel.
Several suitable burrows were investigated. Most burrows were not currently active and have
spiderwebs across the opening. One potential burrowing owl feather was found at a cluster of
burrows approximately 75 feet north of the bridge centerline. The feather was old and indicate
that an owl may have utilized the burrow at some time earlier in the year. No other indicators
such as whitewash or owl pellets were observed. No recent evidence of owls was observed on
site.
SUMMARY
Suitable California ground squirrel burrows were observed on-site. No burrowing owls or recent
sign of burrowing owls was observed on-site. No bird nests or bird species displaying nesting
behavior were detected.
The project area is not currently occupied by burrowing owls and does not contain any active or
inactive bird nests. No additional biological monitoring is required at this time.

(PROGRAM POLICIES)
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT ACT ARTICLE 3 BICYCLE
AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITIES PROGRAM ADOPTED POLICIES
Transportation Development Act Policies
1 . Up to 5% of Article 3 apportionment can be used to supplement other funding sources
used for bicycle and safety education programs; the allocation cannot be used to fully
fund the salary of a person working on these programs.
2.Article 3 money shall be allocated for the construction, including related engineering
expenses, of the facilities, or for bicycle safety education programs.
3.Money may be allocated for the maintenance of bicycling trails, which are closed to
motorized traffic.
4.Facilities provided for the use of bicycles may include projects that serve the
needs of commuting bicyclists, including, but not limited to, new trails serving
major transportation corridors, secure bicycle parking at employment centers, park
and ride lots, and transit terminals where other funds are available.
5.Within 30 days after receiving a request for a review from any city or county, the
transportation-planning agency shall review its allocations.
6.Up to 20 percent of the amount available each year to a city or county may be
allocated to restripe Class II bicycle lanes.
7.A portion of each city's allocation may also be used to develop comprehensive bicycle
and pedestrian plans. Plans must emphasize bike/pedestrian facilities that support
utilitarian bike/pedestrian travel rather than solely recreational activities; a maximum
of one entire allocation per five years may be used for plan development.
8.Allowable maintenance activities for the local funds are limited to maintenance and
repairs of Class I off-street bicycle facilities only.
RCTC Policies
1 . The SB 821 Call for Projects will occur on a biennial basis, with a release date of the
first Monday of every other February and a close date of the last Thursday of every
other April, beginning in 2015.
2.If a project cannot be fully funded, RCTC may recommend partial funding for
award. To handle tiebreakers, RCTC will use, in terms of priority, the safety
question first then construction readiness.
3.Agencies awarded funds will not be reimbursed for any project cost overruns.
4.Agencies being awarded an allocation will be reimbursed in arrears only upon
submitting adequate proof of satisfactory project completion. Claims need to
Attachment 2
I 7336.00005\41471305 2
include: the claim form, copies of paid invoices, a copy of the Notice of
Completion (NOC), and photographs of the completed project.
5.The allocated amount represents the maximum amount eligible for reimbursement.
For projects completed under the allocated amount, the agency will be reimbursed at
the matching ratio as presented in the application.
6.An agency will have thirty-six (36) months from the time of the allocation to complete
the project. There will be no time extensions granted unless the reason for the delay can
be demonstrated. Where substantial progress or a compelling reason for delay can be
shown, the agency may be granted administrative extensions in twelve-month
increments at the discretion of the Executive Director.
7.Any programmed and unused Article 3 Program funds will be forfeited unless that
agency can a) utilize the unused funds to complete projects that are the same or similar
in scope and/or are contiguous to the approved project or b) apply the funds to a project
previously submitted under an Article 3 call for projects and approved by the
Commission, subject to Executive Director approval.
8.Design and construction of facilities must conform to the general design criteria for
non-motorized facilities as outlined in the Caltrans Highway Design Manual.
9.Temporary facilities, projects in the bid process, or projects that are under
construction will not be funded.
10.The SB 821 evaluation committee will be comprised ofa minimum of five evaluators
representing a wide range of interests; such as: accessibility, bicycling, Coachella
Valley, public transit, and the region. Staff, consultants, and other representatives from
agencies submitting project proposals will not be eligible to participate on the
evaluation committee that year.
11 . Following each call, staff will monitor the equity of allocations to Coachella Valley
versus Western Riverside County; the allocation should be relative to what the
Coachella Valley's share would have been if distributed on a per capita basis (the
percentage of funds applied for should also be taken into consideration). If the
allocation is often found to be inequitable to the Coachella Valley, staff will
recommend adoption of a new policy to correct the imbalance.
12.Certain costs at times associated with bicycle/pedestrian projects are not eligible when
the benefit provided is not the exclusive use of bicyclists/pedestrians, such as: curb and
gutter as part of roadway drainage system, driveway ramps installed across sidewalks,
and where roadway design standards require a roadway shoulder width that is at least
as wide as a standard bike lane.
13.For each Call for Projects, a city is eligible to submit up to three (3) applications, and
the County of Riverside is eligible to submit up to two (2) applications per
S upervisorial District.
14.Each application is limited to a maximum request of 10% of the current Call for
Projects programming capacity.
15.Total award to one jurisdiction is limited to 20% of current Call for Project's
programming capacity.
16.Awarded agencies can commence reimbursable project activities on July I of the Call
Attachment 2
17336 00005\41471305 2
for Project fiscal year cycle. E.g.: for FY 23/24 Call for Projects, reimbursable work
starts on July 1, 2023.
17.Awarded agencies have until October 1 of the Call for Project fiscal year cycle to
execute the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with RCTC. E.g.: for FY 23/24
Call for Projects, MOUs must be executed by October 1, 2023
