Recommendations for Council action, SUBJECT TO THE APPROVAL OF THE MAYOR:
- APPROVE the replacement projects as detailed in Attachment A of the September 22, 2016 Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) report, attached to the Council file, as the City's priorities for the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority's Replacement Funding Exchange Program.
