California Code, Streets and Highways Code - SHC § 891.4

(a) A city or county that has prepared a bicycle transportation plan pursuant to Section 891.2 may submit the plan to the county transportation commission or transportation planning agency for approval.  The city or county may submit an approved plan to the department in connection with an application for funds for bikeways and related facilities which will implement the plan.  If the bicycle transportation plan is prepared, and the facilities are proposed to be constructed, by a local agency other than a city or county, the city or county may submit the plan for approval and apply for funds on behalf of that local agency.

(b) The department may grant funds applied for pursuant to subdivision (a) on a matching basis which provides for the applicant's furnishing of funding for 10 percent of the total cost of constructing the proposed bikeways and related facilities.  The funds may be used, where feasible, to apply for and match federal grants or loans.
