RECOMMENDATION

UCAMONGA
It is recommended that the Trails Advisory Committee review and approve the recommended Trail
Priorities List.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The Trails Advisory Committee provides priorities to staff for construction and completion of trails
throughout the City through the annual Trail Priorities List. Given limited funding for construction of the
City's trail system, existing trails have been typically constructed in conjunction with development or
through the use of funds collected as part of the Beautification Fee program. In 2014, the City reviewed
the development related fee programs and eliminated the Beautification Fee program. In addition to
Beautification Fee funds, the City has utilized funds from the former Redevelopment Agency (RDA) and
grant programs such as the Federal and State Safe Routes to School program (SRTS) and the
Transportation Development Act Article 3 program (TDA) to construct trail improvements. Trail projects
completed since Fiscal Year 2012/2013 include:
• Foothill Boulevard Bike and Pedestrian Bridge - $9,000,000 (RDA)
• Deer Creek Bike Trail Improvements - $200,000 (SRTS & Beautification Fee funds)
• Day Creek & Deer Creek Bike Trail Improvements - $300,000 (TDA & local Infrastructure funds)
Current grant opportunities for trail improvements are limited and although the City has been competitive
in obtaining grant funds in the past, the use of these funds is limited to certain modes of transportation
such as pedestrians and bicycles. Given these limited funding opportunities, it is recommended that the
Committee approve the recommended Trail Priority List. If approved, this list will serve as guidance to
staff in prioritizing projects for future grant opportunities. It should be noted that the projects listed may not
meet the requirements for future grants. In these cases, staff will continue to attempt to identify projects
that both meet grant requirements and further the development of the City's trail system.
RECOMMENDED TRAILS PRIORITY LIST
Archibald Avenue from north of Norbrook Drive to Carrari Street — Trail on the west side and
continuation of the existing trail on Archibald Avenue. Note, this trail improvement removes a
section of public LMD landscaping and trees, thus reducing water costs and maintenance, and
most likely reducing the overall cost of maintenance along this stretch. This project has been
included in the proposed Capital Improvements Program for funding in Fiscal Year 2016/2017
with remaining Beautification Fee funds in the amount of $150,000.
2. Archibald Avenue east side widening north of Sunflower - Trail on the east side completing the
missing link of trail from the north to the south. The project will provide for a complete trail

segment with logical termini along Archibald Avenue from Banyan Street to Wilson Avenue and
complements the completion of Priority #1 listed above. This project has been included in the
proposed Capital Improvements Program for funding in Fiscal Year 2016/2017 with remaining
Beautification Fee funds in the amount of $187,000.00.
THE FOLLOWING TRAILS ARE UNFUNDED AND BY PRIORITY
3. Haven Avenue from Wilson Avenue to north of Vivienda Street - Trail on the west side
completing the missing links and continuation of the existing trail on Haven Avenue, south of
Wilson Avenue. Note, the South West corner of Haven Avenue and Wilson Avenue is
undeveloped and the trail along that portion of Haven Avenue would be constructed upon
development.
4. Banyan Street from Carnelian Street to Beryl Street - Trail on the north side and continuation
of the Banyan Street trail from Beryl Street to Archibald Avenue and linking to the proposed
Carnelian Street trail from Banyan Street to Wilson Avenue listed below.

of Banyan Street trail above and linking to existing Wilson Avenue trail.
6. Banyan Street from Sapphire Street to Carnelian Street - Trail on the north side and
continuation of the Banyan Street trail above and linking to the existing trail on Banyan Street
