Summary

City staff and consultants outlined grant programs the CSAP can access, including the Highway Safety Improvement Program (up to $10 million with local match) and the Safe Streets for All implementation grant (cap $25 million), and discussed local-match requirements.

During the CSAP update consultants and city staff reviewed potential funding sources for identified safety projects. The presentation noted the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) can be a major source and that "under the highway safety improvement program, the city can apply up to $10,000,000," though projects generally require a local match.

Staff also described the Safe Streets for All implementation grant as another avenue for funding larger projects, noting it has a cap of $25,000,000. Council members asked how local matches are sourced; the manager's office and consultant said matches typically come from eligible state, local or other federal sources, not from informal IOUs or unrelated settlements.
