CITY OF REDDING
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actions regarding allocation of awarded State of California
Active Transportation Program (ATP) grant funds and regional non-motorized grant funds for
the following projects:
(1) Accept ATP funds in the amount of $7,993,000 and $1,000,000 in regional non-
motorized funds for a total of $8,993,000 for the Victor Improvement Project;
(2) Accept ATP funds in the amount of $6,437,000, and $806,000 in regional non-motorized
funds for a total of $7,243,000, for the Butte Street Improvement Project; and
(3) Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 3rd Amendment to City Budget Resolution
No. 2023-060 appropriating $16,236,000 for the two projects.
Fiscal Impact
The total estimated cost of the Victor Improvement Project (Victor Project) is $9,992,000. The
attached budget Resolution will appropriate Active Transportation Program (ATP) funds of
$7,993,000 as well as regional funds from the Shasta Regional Transportation Agency (SRTA)
in the amount of $1,000,000 for this project. The remaining $999,000 will come from Citywide
Transportation Impact Fee (TIF), Streets funds, or other potential local funding sources or grants.
ATP grant evaluators rank applications by numerous factors, including the amount of match
funds provided for each application. In order to receive the maximum points available for that
aspect of the grant application, the City of Redding (City) and SRTA partnered to split the
optimal match amount of 20 percent (10 percent each).
The total estimated cost of the Butte Street Improvement Project (Butte Street Project) is
$8,048,000. The Resolution will appropriate $6,437,000 in ATP funds and $806,000 in SRTA
funds. The remaining project funds in the amount of $805,000 will come from TIF, Streets
funds, or other local funding sources or grants.

SUBJECT: 4.11(e)--Accept Active Transportation Program Funds for Active Transportation
Program Cycle Six (6) and Adopt Budget Resolution Appropriating Funds
Chuck Aukland, Public
Works Director
Report to Redding City Council July 11, 2023
Re: 4.11(e)--Accept Active Transportation Program Funds ATP Cycle 6 Page 2
Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) may choose not to accept the ATP or regional funds from SRTA or
approve the budget resolution. The City would lose ATP and SRTA funds in the amount of
$16,236,000 and the projects may not be completed without additional funding sources.
Background/Analysis
On September 26, 2013, Governor Brown signed legislation creating the ATP program in the
Department of Transportation. The ATP consolidated several federal and state transportation
programs into a single program with a focus to make California a national leader in active
transportation. The ATP is administered by the Division of Local Assistance, Office of State
Programs. The purpose of the ATP is to encourage increased use of active modes of
transportation. On June 7, 2022, the Council directed staff to apply for funds through ATP Cycle
Six (6) for four projects. Of the four projects submitted, two projects were awarded ATP funding
including the Victor Project and the Butte Street Project. The third project was for the Park
Marina Quick Build, which ranked highest in the state for the quick build program, but
ultimately the state decided not to fund any quick build projects for Cycle 6. The fourth project
was the Hilltop Drive application for a new mixed-use path along the corridor, which missed the
point cutoff by a few application points and was not awarded this cycle.
The proposed Victor Project is mainly located on the Victor Avenue corridor and will
reconstruct the roadway and add complete streets facilities north of Cypress Avenue to Mistletoe
Lane with a fully separated multi-use path on the west side of Victor Avenue and close the
sidewalk gaps on the east side. This will continue similar improvements already constructed or in
design which originally started near Enterprise Park at the south end of the corridor and extended
north towards Hartnell Avenue. An ATP Cycle 5 project awarded to the City and currently in the
design phase, called the Victor and Cypress Avenues Active Transportation Project will carry
improvements north from Hartnell Drive to Cypress Avenue. The proposed Victor Project will
continue these types of facilities north from Cypress Avenue to Mistletoe Lane. Staff will
continue to place a high priority on efforts to obtain additional funding for improvements north
on Victor Avenue from Mistletoe Lane to Old Alturas Road.
The Victor Project will also include neighborhood “greenways” that will improve the
neighborhood streets with traffic calming and a signed bike route to connect the neighborhoods
to Mistletoe School and the retail areas to the west. It will also construct shared-use paths,
sidewalks, curb ramps, and bike lanes. The project will enhance safety by constructing mid-block
crossings with Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons and installing protected intersections for
safer crossings.
The proposed Butte Street Project includes a variety of improvements on the west side of
Downtown Redding. The project begins at the corner of Shasta Street and California Street, and
will construct a new cycle track (protected two-way bike facility) on Shasta Street from the new
Shasta Bike Depot west to West Street. The project then improves many of the neighborhood
streets along Butte Street between Placer Street on the south, Eureka Way on the north, and
Pleasant Street on the west side. It will enhance Butte Street into a neighborhood “greenway”
bike facility that will facilitate bikes through the neighborhood as an alternative to Placer Street
and Eureka Way. Butte Street will feature curb extensions for pedestrian safety, slow

neighborhood streets with traffic calming devices and enhanced bicycle crossings of the side
streets. It will add an off-street extension west on Butte Street through the open space and will
connect to Manzanita Elementary School. This project also includes funding to address Placer
Street along the Benton Airpark gap with the addition of bicycle and pedestrian facilities in this
gap along the north side of Placer Street. The overall project will complete bicycle connections
on the west side of Downtown Redding from California Street through the neighborhoods to
Pleasant Street.
Environmental Review
These actions are not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act, and no
further action is required at this time. Appropriating the funding for these projects will allow the
environmental studies and engineering design work to commence.
Council Priority/City Manager Goals
