Cal. Code Regs. tit. 21 § 6648

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 49, December 6, 2024
Section 6648 - Allocations Reserved in the Fund

The transportation planning agency may specify that moneys allocated to a claimant be reserved in the local transportation fund for future payment to the claimant for a specific capital project. No allocation shall be reserved by the transportation planning agency except in response to a claim for a specific capital project. However, unallocated moneys in the fund shall be retained for areas of apportionment as specified in Section 6655.1 and may be reserved for a general purpose as specified in Sections 6655.2 and 6655.3.

An allocation shall be reserved in the fund only by allocation instruction pursuant to Section 6659, and moneys that are reserved in the fund pursuant to an allocation made for a prior fiscal year shall be authorized for payment only by a separate allocation instruction. The transportation planning agency may authorize the payment of moneys that are reserved in the fund pursuant to an allocation made for a prior fiscal year only to the claimant to which they were allocated and only for the specific capital project for which they were reserved. However, moneys that are reserved in the fund pursuant to an allocation made for the current fiscal year may be reallocated and authorized for payment for any eligible expenditure in the same fiscal year by amending the allocation instruction.

Any moneys allocated and reserved in the local transportation fund and not authorized for payment within three years after the date of allocation shall cease to be allocated or reserved and shall become and be treated as an unallocated apportionment retained in the fund in accordance with Section 6655.1. Such moneys may be reallocated to the same claimant for the same project, to the same claimant for a different purpose, or to another claimant in the same area of apportionment pursuant to Section 6655.1. At least 30 days before the end of any three-year reserve period, the transportation planning agency shall give written notification to the claimant specifying the date on which the moneys cease to be allocated or reserved, and the transportation planning agency shall not reallocate any such moneys to any other claimant until 30 days after such notification. At any time within three years after the date of allocation, the transportation planning agency, with the consent of the claimant, may rescind or revise an allocation of moneys reserved in the fund. Any such moneys that cease to be allocated shall then become and be treated as an unallocated apportionment retained in the fund in accordance with Section 6655.1.

The transportation planning agency shall not authorize any payment to a claimant from an allocation reserved in the fund if the claimant is holding in its own accounts sufficient moneys originally allocated in a previous fiscal year from the local transportation fund and reserved for the specific capital project or reserved for unspecified capital outlay.
