Body
The Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2016 Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section 5307, 5340, 5339 apportionments to the Raleigh Urbanized Area (UZA) were released in early March. The City of Raleigh is the federally recognized designated recipient of these funds and has coordinated with GoTriangle, C-Tran, and NC State University Wolfline to develop the sub-allocation of these funding sources substantially based on the most current MOU for the distribution of Section 5307 funding between the City of Raleigh, GoTriangle, and Town of Cary. Per FTA policy, the MPO must concur with the sub-allocation of UZA federal formula grants and the programming of projects that will make use of the funding and request that FTA disburse the requested funds to eligible direct grant recipients in accordance with the sub-allocation. Attached are pages from the sub-allocation worksheet that determines the amounts to be disbursed to each eligible direct grant recipient.
Requested Action: Action Consider approval of the sub-allocation of FFY 2016 Section 5307, 5340, and 5339 funds in the amounts shown in the attached letter.
