Parlier approves submission of 2023–24 Measure C claim forms to Fresno County Transportation Authority

The Parlier City Council voted on Sept. 27, 2023, to submit the 2023–24 Measure C claim forms to the Fresno County Transportation Authority. Speaker 5 explained the action is to certify the forms so the city may apply for Measure C funding; council discussed the timing and whether the city remains within submission deadlines (September 15 was referenced as a request date). Speaker 4 moved to approve the resolution and Speaker 3 seconded. The motion passed with four ayes and one member absent.

Council members asked procedural questions about the due date and whether certification could still occur in time; Speaker 5 and Speaker 1 reassured members that certification and submission now will permit the city to be placed on the October meeting agenda for formal approval and allow staff to begin applying for the funds. No detailed funding amounts or specific projects to be funded by Measure C were recorded in the provided transcript.

The transcript shows the council took the procedural vote to authorize submission and certification of the Measure C claim forms to maintain eligibility to apply for Fresno County Transportation Authority funds. The item was recorded as approved; the city will next follow the county authority’s process for claims and any subsequent council approvals required for specific funded projects.
