programs. Program 28b funds are distributed by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority (CCTA) to all the
Regional Transportation Planning Committees, including the West Contra Costa Transportation Advisory Committee
(WCCTAC) Committee.
To streamline the process, a single, multi-party cooperative agreement between CCTA and all six WCCTAC member
jurisdictions, including Contra Costa County (Exhibit A), was proposed to disburse Program 28b funds. Under the
