Full summary

This file is the City Administrative Officer's third Transportation-Related Construction Projects Report for fiscal year 2025-26, submitted March 26, 2026. The report authorizes a total of roughly $22.06 million in fund transfers and appropriations to address cash flow shortfalls across transportation and infrastructure construction projects in the public right-of-way. The money comes from a mix of special funds ($21.09 million), grant funds ($530,000), and General Fund dollars within the Capital and Technology Improvement Expenditure Program (CTIEP). Specific projects covered include the Sidewalk and Transit Amenities Program, the Melrose Pedestrian Improvement Project, the SR710 Valley and Huntington Multi-Modal Projects, the Maclay Street Reconfiguration Project, a Street and Storm Drain Design Manual Revitalization Project funded by a SCAG grant, and repairs to the El Pueblo Lot 2 automated gate and signage. The Transportation Committee waived consideration on April 8. The Budget and Finance Committee reviewed and approved the report as amended on April 13, with amendments introduced by Councilmembers Yaroslavsky and Blumenfield that made several corrections and additions: retaining funding for the El Pueblo Lot 2 gate repair that an earlier draft had removed, dropping a duplicate instruction for an LA Public Library project already handled in a prior report, increasing a bridge and tunnel asset management software transfer from $149,060 to $185,140 using Measure M Local Return funds, and adding $30,000 from the Coastal Transportation Corridor Trust Fund to cover a Coastal Development Permit application needed to establish Preferential Parking District No. 316 in the Del Rey neighborhood of Council District 11. Council adopted the amended item 12-0-3 on April 22, 2026. The file was transmitted to the Mayor on April 24, with a mayoral action deadline of May 4, 2026. The CAO is authorized to make technical corrections to any of the approved transactions as needed to carry out their intent.
