body
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
As the County’s Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) and the Regional Transportation Planning Agency, the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) is required by state and federal law to develop and adopt an RTIP.
Every two years, SANDAG asks cities to develop their transportation spending plan for the next five years, and to formally approve it by resolution. SANDAG staff consolidates the plans from the member agencies, and incorporates them into the RTIP, which is subsequently adopted by the SANDAG Board.
At its meeting on September 27, 2024, the SANDAG Board of Directors adopted the final 2025 RTIP. The current 2025 RTIP covers five fiscal years (FY 2025 through FY 2029).
Cities can amend their POP by adopting a resolution consistent with the TransNet Extension Ordinance and SANDAG Board policies. Amendments can include project scope changes, project additions or deletions, or changes in project funding.
The City’s annual Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget process defines the specific spending authorization by City Council for the upcoming year. Attachment 2 describes the projects authorized in the current 2025 RTIP for the City of Oceanside.
To address fluctuations in revenues and work progress, a TransNet Extension Ordinance allows SANDAG agencies, including the City of Oceanside, to adjust its POP as programmed in the 2025 RTIP.
Oceanside’s proposed amendment list is described below and is incorporated by reference into the attached Resolution (Attachment 3). Each project listed is identified by a specific identifying number (MPO ID).
Additionally, the following modifications will be made to address a deficit in the TransNet Revenue vs Programmed Reporting.
The total drawdown will total $1,474,93. The available unprogrammed carryover balance is $1,735,000.
FISCAL IMPACT
For the projects listed in the above table, the City’s FY 2025-26 TransNet Program total budget is $15,047,232. The total revenue for FY 2025-26 TransNet Program is forecasted to be $15,945,068.
COMMISSION OR COMMITTEE REPORT
On May 19, 2025 the Planning Commission approved the Capital Improvement Project finding for the projects in the CIP budget.
CITY ATTORNEY’S ANALYSIS
The referenced documents have been reviewed by the City Attorney and approved as form.
