highlighting the following:
At this time, Commissioners Scott Matas and Dennis Woods joined the meeting.
• Proposed 2020 refinancing plan:

• Required disclosures

RCTC Budget and Implementation Committee Minutes

Page 3
At this time, Michele Cisneros presented the required refinancing disclosure documents,
and approvals, highlighting the following:
• 2020 refinancing documents and approvals
• 2020 refinancing timeline
• Why refinance now
o Benefit to RCTC: Reduce interest costs; Capture additional near-term
surplus toll revenues; Eliminate TIFIA loan restrictions; Ensure local control
and future flexibility
o Current market conditions: Historically low interest rates and large
amounts of investor cash available; Current interest rates reflect market’s
expectation of future events; 2013 TIFIA Loan outstanding balance
increases daily; and 2013 A Bonds slightly cheaper to refund as 2023 call
date nears
Commissioner Larry Smith expressed appreciation for the presentation as it was as
precise and clear as it could possibly be in a complex situation. He stated there was
indication of an $18 million potential savings and inquired if those funds are dedicated
back to the 91 Corridor and if that would be the case for any future refinancing of debt
projects.
Anna Sarabian replied yes because they are refinancing 91 debt secured by toll revenues
from the 91 Projects so those savings can only be applied to projects in the corridor.
In response to Commissioner Karen Spiegel’s inquiry about the bond RCTC is trying to sell
for $725 million, Anna Sarabian replied that is the not to exceed amount.
Commissioner Spiegel stated if that is what the Commission was going to do and Ms.
Sarabian is saying that the debt all said and done is going to be $1.1 billion.
Anna Sarabian replied that is total principle and interest.
In response to Commissioner Spiegel’s clarification if the Commission were not going to
go with this route how much debt does the Commission have looking at total principal
and interest, Anna Sarabian replied they had the total principal earlier and currently the
TIFIA Loan is at $481 million but it will keep accruing and compounding interest until
December 2021 so it will be more than that, plus the $123 million and the interest
payments. The total combined is higher than the new refunded debt service because this
is being done for savings.
In response to Commissioner Spiegel’s inquiry what approximate is the savings, which is
more than $18 million, Anna Sarabian replied the $18 million is a net present value savings
so the gross savings are actually a lot higher.

Anne Mayer explained the $18 million is a net present value and asked for confirmation
from Ms. Sarabian or Ms. Cisneros that with this refinancing the Commission would also
be out of debt sooner.
Anna Sarabian concurred. She stated under this refinancing plan the team is looking to
actually prepay the debt three years sooner than currently contemplated so savings,
getting out of debt sooner, and removing the restrictions on TIFIA.

Budget, highlighting the following areas:
• Budget development – Commission Goals and Policies; Department Goals and
Objectives; and Budget Development and Adoption
6
RCTC Budget and Implementation Committee Minutes
February 24, 2020
Page 7
• Commission Goals and Objectives – Quality of Life; Operational Excellence;
Connecting the Economy; and Responsible Partner
• Guiding Fiscal Policies – Financial planning; Revenues; Expenditures/expenses;
Debt management; Cash management; and Accounting and reporting
• Next steps
Commissioner Raymond Gregory explained in reviewing the goals he wanted to know
where the rail service initiative for the San Gorgonio-Coachella Valley rail line was, as he
thought he missed it. He clarified it is still listed under Regional Programs but it reads the
Commission will provide leadership in the planning and development of this line and his
understanding was the Commission had stronger language before and inquired if this has
changed. He noted hearing from advocacy groups that Commission staff indicated there
is a softening in the commitment to this line basically because it is very difficult.
Anne Mayer stated staff will go back and look at the wording as she did not recall that this
wording has changed. She expressed that it is absolutely not true of staff’s position on
this important corridor is softening at all. This is a very complicated project as evidenced
by being four years the Commission has been in on a Tier 1 environmental document that
had hoped it would be circulated to the public a year ago. Anne Mayer stated staff is
working very closely with the Federal Railroad Administration to get their approval to
release the document for public review and it should be later this year. She explained
this project will require triple tracking the entire Union Pacific Line from Colton out to
Indio, which is a very large expense that will likely be borne by state investments in
intercity rail and possibly federal investments. She suggested staff could go out and have
any conversations with the advocacy groups in the desert to ensure them of the
Commission’s commitment to the project.
Commissioner Gregory expressed appreciation for Anne Mayer’s comments of
commitment, which is very helpful and suggested maybe part of the concern comes from
the setbacks with the special train and that platform in Indio there was a lot of press
particularly in the Coachella Valley. Although he heard mention of it in some of these
meetings and has not had an update as to where that is so he may request that staff could
come back with an update on what is the status on the entire rail project.
Anne Mayer replied staff can provide an update on the status of the environmental
document for the overall project as well as an update on the special event train at a future
meeting. She stated in regards to the delay for running the special event train is the
challenge is the Commission needs Union Pacific approval, which the Commission does
not yet have.
M/S/C (Bonner/Gregory) to:
1) Review and approve the proposed Commission Policy Goals and
Objectives for the Fiscal Year 2020/21 Budget;
7

RCTC Budget and Implementation Committee Minutes
February 24, 2020
Page 9
Anne Mayer stated the CEQA process can be very challenging and it is not uncommon for
CEQA documents to become the subject of litigation. One of the challenges with
implementation of new processes especially implementation of new processes when the
process is not fully vetted is that there is confusion. She discussed the situation when
guidance comes out in a couple of weeks and they are required to implement this now.
Most projects, out of abundance of caution, will have to become a full blown EIR and an
EIS on the federal level, which on average takes at least four years or longer. Also, due to
a lack of clarity of intent here that there will be litigants on all sides of this issue. She
discussed the confusion about implementation regarding the transition period. Staff is
working through the issue and Caltrans is required to do this and they are being required
to do it in a really big hurry, which is where the problem comes in. Anne Mayer stated
after July 1st all of the jurisdictions will be required to use vehicle miles traveled (VMT) as
the measure for approving or disproving environmental documents for development. She
explained receiving the initial list of projects Friday evening that Caltrans believes could
be impacted by the VMT and the majority of the projects are in Southern California in the
SCAG Region and Riverside and San Bernardino have the highest volume of projects that
could potentially be impacted.
In regards to Commissioner Spiegel’s inquiry on the INFRA and the BUILD and how the
same project could be submitted for both and if it is the same application type, Aaron
Hake replied the applications are similar the criteria are a little bit different in each
solicitation but staff is being consistent and making sure they are tailoring each
application to specifically what that program is designed to fund as it is the same
Secretary that will make a decision on both of these.
Commissioner Larry Smith explained what was learned at the Commission’s Annual
Workshop is the very measures that have been used historically to reduce VMT can
backfire on the Commission and be able to now take a road that will increase the traffic
and it is not going to work in the Commission’s favor. That is the simplicity of the very
projects the Commission thought would decrease some of the congestion are going to
have a difficult time getting through because they are going to increase VMTs. He stated
this went through SCAG a few months ago and that is not the end of this conversation as
VMT moves and its implementations on the Commissioners and what it means for taxes.
1) Receive and file an update on state and federal legislation; and
2) Forward to Commission for final action.

AGENDA ITEM 5B
Agenda Item 5B
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE: April 27, 2020
TO: Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM: Michele Cisneros, Deputy Director of Finance
THROUGH: Theresia Trevino, Chief Financial Officer
SUBJECT: Quarterly Sales Tax Analysis
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Receive and file the sales tax analysis for Quarter 3, 2019 (3Q 2019); and
2) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
At its December 2007 meeting, the Commission awarded an agreement with MuniServices, LLC
(MuniServices), an Avenu Company, for quarterly sales tax reporting services plus additional
fees contingent on additional sales tax revenues generated from the transactions and use tax
(sales tax) audit services. As part of the recurring contracts process in June 2018, the
Commission approved a five-year extension through June 30, 2023. The services performed
under this agreement pertain to only the Measure A sales tax revenues.
Since the commencement of these services, MuniServices submitted audits, which reported
findings and submitted to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA), for
review and determination of errors in sales tax reporting related to 1,111 businesses. Through
3Q 2019, the CDTFA approved 635 of these accounts for a cumulative sales tax recovery of
$10,551,666. If CDTFA concurs with the error(s) for the remaining claims, the Commission will
receive additional revenues; however, the magnitude of the value of the remaining findings was
not available. It is important to note that while the recoveries of additional revenues will be
tangible, it will not be sufficient to alter the overall trend of sales tax revenues.
MuniServices provided the Commission with the Quarterly Sales Tax Digest Summary report for
3Q 2019. Most of the 3Q 2019 Measure A sales tax revenues were received in the fourth
quarter of calendar year 2019, during October 2019 through December 2019, due to a lag in the
sales tax calendar. The summary section of the 3Q 2019 report is attached and includes an
overview of California’s economic outlook, local results, historical cash collections analysis by
quarter, top 25 sales/use tax contributors, historical sales tax amounts, annual sales tax by
business category, and five-year economic trend (general retail).

Agenda Item 5B
Taxable transactions for the top 25 contributors in Riverside County generated 24.6 percent of
taxable sales for the benchmark year ended 3Q 2019, slightly higher than the 23.3 percent for
the benchmark year ended 3Q 2018. The top 100 tax contributors generated 39.2 percent for
the benchmark year ended 3Q 2019, slightly higher than the 37.9 percent for the benchmark
year ended 3Q 2018.
In the Economic Category Analysis below, all six categories experienced new highs in the
3Q 2019 benchmark year to the prior eight benchmark years.

ECONOMIC CATEGORY ANALYSIS
An analysis of sales tax performance through 3Q 2019 is attached and illustrates fairly
consistent cycles for sales tax performance for most of the economic categories since 3Q 2014.
For 7 of the top 10 segments (restaurants, department stores, miscellaneous retail, building
materials – wholesale, apparel stores, building materials – retail, and heavy industry) during the
eight benchmark year quarters, sales tax receipts reached a new high point. The segments
represent 49.5 percent of the total sales tax receipts. Service stations representing 7.6 percent
was higher than the last five benchmark year quarters since 3Q 2014. Auto sales – new and
food markets were down slightly from 3Q 2018 due to an end for new order incentives and a
warehouse club chain, included under department stores, taking away food sales from grocery
retailers, respectively.
The top 10 segments represent 73.1 percent of the total sales tax receipts. For the other
21 segments representing 26.9 percent of the total sales tax receipts, 11 segments representing
18.6 percent of the total sales tax receipts reached new high points in the benchmark year
3Q 2019. In the Economic Segment Analysis below, auto sales – new and department stores
have been in the top three economic segments since 2014. Restaurants replaced service
stations in the top three economic segments beginning in 4Q 2014. The service stations
segments high occurred in 4Q 2012 and declined through 1Q 2017 due to lower fuel prices; the
3Q 2019 benchmark year quarter for service stations reflects an increase over the last five
benchmark year quarters since 2Q 2014 due to higher fuel prices.

ECONOMIC SEGMENT ANALYSIS
As reported in the 3Q 2018 Sales Tax Analysis Report, staff notified the Commission of a
reporting error by one of the top 25 sales/use tax contributors related to a misallocation of the
district tax to the Commission during 2Q 2018 through 4Q 2018, resulting in an overpayment to
the Commission estimated in the amount of $2.5 million. Staff is not certain in which period
the misallocation correction will be completed; however, the Fiscal Year 2019/20 sales tax
revenues after the correction are expected to continue to reflect an increase over the
FY 2018/19 revenues.
Information regarding sales tax comparison by city and change in economic segments (two
highest gains and two highest losses) from 3Q 2018 to 3Q 2019 is attached.
Staff continues to monitor sales tax receipts and other available economic data to determine
the need for any adjustments to the revenue projections. Staff will utilize the forecast
scenarios with the complete report and receipt trends in assessing such projections.

CALIFORNIA’S ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
California sales tax receipts decreased by ‐8.5% over the same quarter from the previous year, with
Northern California reporting a ‐9.8% decrease compared to a ‐7.5% for Southern California. Receipts for
the RCTC decreased by ‐12.3% over the same periods. Large decreases were mostly due to the California
Department of Tax and Fee Administration implementation of a new reporting system and the
processing of many sales tax returns filed for the for previous quarters in Q3 of the previous year.
Online Sales Tax Windfall: A new California law, (AB147), aimed at collecting sales tax from third‐
party retailers using online platforms like Amazon, ebay, Walmart, Etsy to sell taxable goods in California
generated nearly $475 million in Sales Tax in the fourth quarter of 2019. That is nearly as much as the
$476 million that state and federal agencies, and many tax experts predicted it would generate for an
entire year! (CalMatters, March 4, 2020)
COVID‐19 (Corona Virus): The impact of the virus on the overall economy so far has been mostly to
reduce supply and not demand. Though the effect is likely to be temporary, fear has had an impact on
consumer behaviors that may negatively impact “foot traffic and tourism‐sensitive” segments of the
economy. Sales tax revenues may be negatively impacted for 30 to 60 days. Historically pandemics,
(Swine Flu, SARS, Bird Flu), have not had a significant long‐term impact on sales tax revenues.

Agenda Item 5D
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE: April 27, 2020
TO: Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM: Monica Morales, Management Analyst
THROUGH: Lorelle Moe-Luna, Multi Modal Services Director
SUBJECT:
Federal Transit Administration’s Section 5310 Enhanced Mobility for Seniors
and Individuals with Disabilities Program Federal Fiscal Years 2017/18 and
2018/19
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Adopt Resolution No. 20-007, “Resolution of the Riverside County Transportation
Commission Certifying Project Consistency with the Public Transit-Human Services
Transportation Coordinated Plan”;
2) Direct staff to program the projects in the Federal Transportation Improvement Program
(FTIP); and
3) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section 5310 grant program was established in 1975
and has been administered by Caltrans since its inception. The goal of the 5310 program is to
improve mobility for seniors and individuals with disabilities by removing barriers to
transportation services and expanding the transportation mobility options available. On
July 1, 2019, Caltrans issued a call for projects for the FFYs 2017/18 and 2018/19 FTA Section
5310 Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities program.
Eligible applicants include private non-profit organizations and public agencies. Projects must be
in line with the identified strategies of a local Public Transit-Human Services Transportation
Coordinated Plan (Coordinated Plan). The Commission’s current Coordinated Plan was updated
in December 2016. Eligible projects are classified as traditional or expanded projects. Traditional
projects include vehicles and related equipment and must comprise at least 55 percent of the
available funding. Expanded projects are those that exceed the requirements of the Americans
with Disabilities Act and mobility management and comprise up to 45 percent of available
funding.
For large urbanized areas (UZA) in Riverside County, as shown in Table 1.1 below, approximately
$3 million was available for programming for the FFYs 2017/18 and 2018/19 grant cycle. Table

Agenda Item 5D
1.2 below shows that for the statewide competitive funding for small urban areas such as the
Hemet-San Jacinto UZA, a total of $10,170,044 was available and for rural areas a total of
$4,078,151.

FTA guidelines allow 5310 program funds to be used to provide up to 80 percent federal share of
capital costs and require at least 20 percent in local match. For operating costs, federal funds
can be awarded up to 50 percent. However, for this FFYs 2017/18 and 2018/19 funding cycle, as
in the past three funding cycles, agencies will receive 100 percent project funding in 5310 funds
with the usage of California state toll credits as local matching funds. Toll credits are a funding
tool that can be utilized by states as a means of meeting local and state matching requirements
for federal funding. State credits are accrued when capital investments are made in federally
approved tolled facilities including toll roads and bridges.
Caltrans was responsible for administering and selecting projects for both the small urban and
rural and large urbanized areas in Riverside County; however, Commission staff also reviewed
and evaluated traditional project applications in the county. A total of 14 agencies within
Riverside County submitted grant applications requesting $5,359,392 for 46 projects that include
21 replacement vehicles, 13 expansion vehicles, 2 computer hardware/software, 8 operating
projects, and 2 mobility management projects. Caltrans’ recommendations were approved and
awarded by the California Transportation Commission on March 26, 2020.
As required by the program, staff recommends that the Commission adopt Resolution No.
20-007 to certify that the projects were derived from a locally developed Coordinated Plan.
Additionally, staff will submit the projects to the Southern California Association of Government
for inclusion into the FTIP for programming and obligation of funds.
There is no financial impact to the Commission, as Caltrans disburses the Section 5310 funds
directly to the recipients.

Sheldon Peterson, Rail Manager
THROUGH: Lorelle Moe-Luna, Multimodal Services Director
SUBJECT: Low Carbon Transit Operations Program
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Adopt Resolution No. 20-006 “Resolution of the Riverside County Transportation
Commission Regarding Authorization for the Execution of the Certifications and
Assurances and Authorized Agent Forms for the Low Carbon Transit Operations Program
for Expanded Perris Valley Line Operations FY 21 Project in the Amount of $1,081,302”;
and
2) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Commission’s Commuter Rail Program applies for various federal and state funds that are
necessary to fund rail projects within Riverside County. There is also the need for grants to meet
the Commission’s annual funding responsibility related to rail operations and capital projects.
The Commuter Rail Program is currently seeking approval to obtain Low Carbon Transit
Operations Program (LCTOP) grant funding which is available through the California Department
of Transportation. Projects eligible for this program need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
and support transit agencies in their effort to increase mode share. The Rail Program is seeking
operation funding for the newly extended Perris Valley Line (PVL) commuter rail service. Funding
for this grant is formula based. The application is for funding allocated to the Commission in the
amount of $1,081,302.
As required by the LCTOP grant guidelines, Resolution No. 20-006 is needed to authorize use of
the funds on PVL operations and authorize the Executive Director to execute the Certifications,
Assurances, and Authorized Agent forms. The resolution is required to submit and file the grant;
therefore, staff recommends approval of the resolution related to the FY 2019/20 LCTOP grant.
Funding received from this grant will be included in the FY 2020/21 budget and will be reflected
in the Commission’s FY 2020/21 Short Range Transit Plan.

RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE: April 27, 2020
TO: Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM: Theresia Trevino, Chief Financial Officer
THROUGH: John Standiford, Deputy Executive Director
SUBJECT:
Revised Fiscal Year 2020 and Fiscal Year 2021 Revenue Projections for
Measure A, Local Transportation Fund, and Transportation Uniform Mitigation
Fee
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Approve the revised mid-year Fiscal Year 2019/20 revenue projections of $178 million for
2009 Measure A (Measure A) revenues, $91 million for Local Transportation Fund (LTF)
revenues and $16 million for Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) revenues;
2) Approve the revised FY 2020/21 revenue projections of $160 million for Measure A
revenues, $82 million for LTF revenues, and $11 million for TUMF revenues;
3) Approve the budget decrease adjustments to Measure A revenues of $24 million and
expenditures of $9.91 million to reflect the revised FY 2019/20 Measure A projection;
4) Approve the budget decrease adjustments to LTF revenues of $12 million, transfers in of
$360,000, and expenditures and transfers out of $450,000 to reflect the revised
FY 2019/20 LTF projection;
5) Approve the budget decrease adjustments to TUMF revenues of $11 million to reflect the
revised FY 2019/20 TUMF projection; and
6) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
At its January meeting, the Commission approved the mid-year FY 2019/20 and the FY 2020/21
revenue projections for Measure A, LTF, and TUMF revenues.
Subsequently in March, the federal government as well as California’s Governor Newsom issued
emergency declarations related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Further, on March 19, Governor
Newsom issued Executive Order N-33-20, a stay at home order to protect the health and
well-being of all Californians and to establish consistency across the state in order to slow the
spread of COVID-19. The County of Riverside also issued a directive to county residents
supporting the Governor’s executive order.
42
Agenda Item 6
COVID-19 and the related “stay at home” orders have negatively impacted the local, regional,
state, and federal economies; the magnitude and duration of these impacts is uncertain.
Nonetheless, Commission staff determined that it was critical to reassess the FY 2019/20 and
FY 2020/21 revenue projections for Measure A, LTF, and TUMF to establish more realistic
projections and expectations for the Commission’s FY 2020/21 budget and impacts on local
jurisdictions.
DISCUSSION:
Measure A Sales Tax Revenues
Measure A is the local half-cent transactions and use tax approved by Riverside County voters in
November 2002. Measure A funds fund highway, regional arterial, local streets and roads, new
corridors, economic development, bond financing, bus transit, commuter rail, commuter
assistance, and specialized transportation projects in the three geographic areas of Riverside
County, as defined in the Measure A Expenditure Plan.
For the Measure A sales tax revenues, management analyzed each economic category (general
retail, food products, transportation, construction, business to business, and miscellaneous) and
underlying economic segments that generate Measure A sales tax. Management then estimated
a percent change in each segment. For example, management estimated a 100 percent decrease
in new and used auto sales (transportation); however, management estimated no change in food
markets (food products category). The anticipated benefit of the Wayfair decision and
implementation of internet sales taxes slightly offset the projected changes in Measure A sales
tax revenues due to COVID-19.
Management used the most recent benchmark year information from Q3 2019 (separate staff
report at this meeting) to estimate a one-month net reduction in Measure A sales tax revenues.
Management then applied the estimated monthly reduction to the last four months of
FY 2019/20 and the first eight months of FY 2020/21. This reflects a conservative assumption
that the COVID-19 impacts extend for a 12-month or one-year period. As a result of this analysis,
management projects a significant decrease in the revised FY 2019/20 and FY 2020/21 Measure
A revenues, as follows:
Measure A Projection FY 2019/20 FY 2020/21
Original $ 193,000,000 $ 207,000,000
Mid-year 202,000,000 N/A
Revised 178,000,000 160,000,000
Decrease ($) 24,000,000 47,000,000
Decrease (%) 12% 22%
43
Agenda Item 6
LTF Sales Tax Revenues
LTF sales tax revenues represent a quarter cent of the statewide sales tax and primarily fund
transit requirements within the county in addition to planning and administration activities and
bicycle and pedestrian projects. These revenues approximate 51 percent of Measure A sales tax
revenues; management applied this percentage to the Measure A net reductions for the same
period. Accordingly, management projects a significant decrease in the revised FY 2019/20 and
FY 2020/21 LTF revenues, as follows:
LTF Projection FY 2019/20 FY 2020/21
Original $ 97,000,000 $ 106,000,000
Mid-year 103,000,000 N/A
Revised 91,000,000 82,000,000
Decrease ($) 12,000,000 24,000,000
Decrease (%) 12% 23%
TUMF Revenues
TUMF revenues represent the Commission’s share of revenues generated from a development
fee program administered by the Western Riverside Council of Governments. Local Western
County jurisdictions collect fees charged to ensure new development pays for the new
transportation facilities needed to accommodate growth.
For TUMF revenues, management analyzed TUMF revenues for the first six months of FY 2019/20
and determined an average monthly TUMF revenue amount. The analysis showed a 14 percent
decrease in TUMF revenues for the first half of FY 2019/20 compared to the same period for
FY 2018/19. Additionally, actual revenues were tracking below the FY 2019/20 projections.
Management assumed that TUMF revenues for the last four months of FY 2019/20 and the first
eight months of FY 2020/21 would decrease to approximately 10 percent and 20 percent,
respectively, of the average monthly TUMF revenue amount. This analysis resulted in the
following revised FY 2019/20 and FY 2020/21 TUMF revenues:
TUMF Projection FY 2019/20 FY 2020/21
Original $ 25,000,000 $ 28,000,000
Mid-year 27,000,000 N/A
Revised 16,000,000 11,000,000
Decrease ($) 11,000,000 17,000,000
Decrease (%) 41% 61%
44
Agenda Item 6
NEXT STEPS:
In recent weeks, the Governor issued additional executive orders that impact the collection of
sales tax revenues. Management has not determined the impact, if any, of these orders on the
revised Measure A and LTF sales tax revenues. However, staff will continue to monitor
FY 2019/20 and FY 2020/21 sales tax revenues to determine if any required adjustments to the
revenue projections.
Management recommends the Commission approve the revised revenue projections for
FY 2019/20 and FY 2020/21. Additionally, management recommends the following FY 2019/20
budget adjustments related to the revised FY 2019/20 revenue projections:
• Measure A: $24 million decrease in revenues and related direct effect decreases of
$7,331,000 and $2,579,000 on local streets and roads program and Coachella Valley
highways and regional arterial expenditures, respectively;
• LTF: $12 million decrease in revenues and related direct effect decreases of $360,000
and $90,000 on Commission and Southern California Association of Governments
planning allocations, respectively; and
• TUMF: $11 million decrease in revenues.
While the revised FY 2019/20 revenue projections reflect significant decreases in revenues as a
result of the COVID-19 impact, sufficient Measure A, LTF, and TUMF reserves are available to
fund budgeted expenditures. However, even greater decreases anticipated in FY 2020/21
revenues may impact Commission programs and projects. Accordingly, staff requires additional
time for the development of the FY 2020/21 budget. Staff anticipates that the FY 2020/21 budget
will be presented at the June Commission meeting for a public hearing and adoption rather than
a preliminary budget in May and final budget in June as in past years. While the FY 2020/21
budget will reflect the best available information at the time of adoption, management
anticipates the need for subsequent budget adjustments throughout the year as the economic
impacts of COVID-19 become clearer.
Upon Commission approval of these revised revenue projections and related FY 2019/20 budget
adjustments, staff will continue the development of the FY 2020/21 budget. Additionally, staff
will provide this information to the local jurisdictions and transit operators for planning purposes.

Good morning Commissioners.
At the January meeting, the Commission approved revenue projections for the
revised revenue projections for FY 2020 and the revenue projections for FY 2021 to
be used for budget development.
The revenue projections related to the RCTC’s two sales tax sources—Measure A and
Local Transportation Fund, or LTF—and RCTC’s share of Transportation Uniform
Mitigation Fee revenues.
Since that approval, the COVID‐19 pandemic has resulted in local, state, and national
emergency declarations.

COVID‐19 and the related “stay at home orders” have negatively impacted the
economy.
This is truly an unprecedented event, and it’s difficult to predict the magnitude and
duration of the economic impacts.
However, it’s our responsibility to revise the January estimates in order to complete
preparation of a more realistic FY 2021 budget.
In the next slides, I will provide an overview of revised projections for the 3 revenue
sources.

Based on year ended Q3 2019 Offset by internet sales tax = $0.4 million
Estimated COVID‐19 impact on economic segments in each category
General retail Food products Transportation Construction Business to
business Miscellaneous
Through our sales tax consultant, we obtained data on Measure A sales tax revenues through the most recent year
available (through the third quarter of 2019) by economic category. [Q3 2019 is a consent item on this agenda.]
There are six economic categories.
Within each category are economic segments for a total of 32 segments.
Based on the information at the time, we analyzed each segment and estimated the percentage impact of COVID‐
19.
The estimates ranged from no change to a 100% reduction.
Let me give you a few examples.
Food Markets represents about 29% of the sales tax revenues in the Food Products category.
We estimated no change in this segment.
Apparel Stores is about 17% in the General Retail category.
We assigned a 75% reduction to this segment.
In the Transportation category, we assigned a 100% reduction to Auto Sales‐New, which represents 44% of this
category.
This process then produced a one‐month impact estimate, which was a $6.4 million decrease using the Q3 2019
data.
This decrease was then offset by the anticipated benefits from implementation of the Wayfair internet sales tax as
estimated by the sales tax consultant.
The monthly benefit of $400,000 resulted in a one‐month net decrease of approximately $6 million.
We then used this one‐month decrease to project an adjustment to Measure A revenues over a 12‐month period:
the last 4 months of FY 2020 and the first 8 months of FY 2021.
This resulted in a $24 million decrease in the FY 2020 projection and $47 million decrease in the FY 2021 projection.
On the next slide, I’ll show you a graphic to illustrate the results of this process.

Decrease ($) 12,000,000 24,000,000
Decrease (%) 12% 23%
Since LTF revenues are a quarter cent of the state sales tax, we used the Measure A
results in our projection.
LTF represents about 51% of Measure A revenues, so the one‐month net impact is
projected to be a $3.1 million decrease for the last 4 months of FY 2020 and the first
8 months of FY 2021.
This results in a $12 million decrease for FY 2020 and $24 million decrease in FY 2021
to revised revenue projections of $91 million in FY 2020 and $82 million in FY 2021.

Decrease (%) 41% 61%
TUMF revenues are RCTC’s share of the developer fee program administered by
WRCOG.
We reviewed revenues through December and determined that they were about 14%
lower than the same period in FY 2019.
Those revenues averaged about $2 million per month.
Our assumptions for TUMF were similar to sales tax with the impacts beginning in
March for a 12‐month period.
We projected that the impacts in the last 4 months of FY 2020 would be 10% of the
average monthly revenue and 20% for the first 8 months of FY 2021.
Based on this process, we conservatively project that the TUMF revenues for FY 2020
will be $16 million and for FY 2021 will be $11 million.
These are significant decreases compared to the January projections as shown in the
chart.

•Public hearing at June
meeting
•Adoption at June meeting
When we developed our revised projections, it was as of a specific point in time based on the
information at that time.
Since then, the Governor has issued two Executive Orders related to the deferral of sales tax payments
by sellers.
These orders will have an impact on RCTC’s receipt of sales tax revenues.
Additionally, soon we’ll begin to receive actual data on the impacts of COVID‐19 related to spending in
the economic categories discussed earlier.
As the stay at home orders are lifted, hopefully we’ll gradually get a better sense of how long it will take
for the economy to return to normal or whatever the new normal will be.
The point here is that there are many uncertainties and there will likely be differences between these
projections and actual results.
But we need to present a budget for the new fiscal year that anticipates some reductions in revenues.
We are still working on the budget and will present it at the June meeting for the public hearing and
adoption.
We will continue to monitor the revenues as we end this fiscal year and begin the new fiscal year.
It is possible that the we will need to come to the Board throughout FY 2021 for subsequent budget
adjustments as the economic impacts of the virus are better known.

AGENDA ITEM 7
Agenda Item 7
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE: April 27, 2020
TO: Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM: David Knudsen, Legislative Affairs Manager
THROUGH: Aaron Hake, External Affairs Director
SUBJECT: State and Federal Legislative Update
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Receive and file an update on state and federal legislation; and
2) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
State Update
The COVID-19 State Response
The California State Legislature went into suspension on March 16, 2020 after approving
$1 billion in new funding in response to the COVID-19 public health crisis. The bill, which was
signed by Governor Newsom on March 17, 2020, allocated up to $1 billion for a ramp-up of
hospital capacity and any purpose related to the Governor’s March 4, 2020 state of emergency
declaration. As of April 8, 2020, Governor Newsom has issued thirteen executive orders aimed
at enhancing local government’s COVID-19 response, moratorium on evictions, relief for small
businesses, ensuring safety net services continue for vulnerable Californians, and some tax relief.
On March 25, 2020, RCTC Executive Director Anne Mayer, sent a letter to the Riverside County’s
Legislative Delegation in support of public transit operators seeking emergency funding to offset
the direct costs and revenue losses associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Transit agencies in
Riverside County are expected to lose approximately $15.4 million of operating funds due to the
unprecedented drop in ridership and escalating operational costs.
Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-40-20 Providing Relief to California Small Businesses
on March 30, 2020. The order will allow small business taxpayers with annual taxable sales below
$5 million to enter into a 12-month payment plan for up to $50,000 of their sales and use tax
liability at zero interest. Following the signing of the Executive Order, the California Department
of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA), which administers California's sales tax, announced sales
tax returns for the 1st Quarter 2020 will now be due on July 31, 2020, an addition of three months
52
Agenda Item 7
to file returns and pay taxes. Unclear in the Executive Order and guidance from CDTFA, is if this
order also includes local sales tax collection. RCTC staff is working to determine how this might
impact Measure A sales tax collection and distribution.
The Assembly Budget Committee released a memo on April 6, 2020 recognizing that there will
be less money and time to adopt a balanced budget by the constitutionally required deadline of
June 15, 2020. The memo further outlined changes to the 2020 budget process including:
• The Governor’s May Revision will become a “workload” budget that reflects 2019-2020,
or current, service levels. This means that new budget proposals, based on the
Governor’s January 2020 budget proposal, will not be heard in Committee. Additionally,
when the Assembly Budget Committee reconvenes, no new priorities will be considered
from stakeholders, advocates, and Members with the exception of COVID-19 related
costs, wildfire prevention, and homelessness funding.
• By delaying personal income tax receipts until July 15, 2020 the Legislature will revisit the
budget after it is passed in June, likely in August. This second round of budget
deliberations will allow for a better picture of revenues, the state of the economy, and
determine if additional COVID-19 related responses will be necessary.
As of this staff report, the Legislature is expected to stay in recess until May 4, 2020, but
legislative leaders in either chamber can decide to reconvene or extend the recess if necessary.
It is unclear at this time what additional legislative action the Legislature will take once they
return or what will happen to existing bills unrelated to COVID-19 response and recovery. RCTC
staff will continue to monitor and provide an update to the Commission on legislation that will
impact RCTC.
Federal Update
The COVID-19 Federal Response
Throughout March, Congress and the Trump Administration have been working to enact
emergency relief legislation in response to the COVID-19 public health crisis. Three COVID-19
relief packages have been enacted to date: Coronavirus Preparedness and Response
Supplemental Appropriations Act (March 4, 2020), Families First Coronavirus Response Act
(March 18, 2020), and the $2 trillion CARES Act (March 27, 2020).
On March 24, 2020, RCTC Executive Director Anne Mayer, sent a letter to the Riverside County’s
Congressional Delegation in support of public transit operators seeking emergency funding to
offset the direct costs and revenue losses associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. The
emergency relief bill, the CARES Act, included $25 billion in emergency funding for public
transportation. Public transportation funding from this bill is expected to total more than
$3.75 billion for California. Congress is currently considering additional coronavirus response
53
Agenda Item 7
legislation (commonly referred to as "Phase 4") that aims to build on the first three emergency
relief packages.
There has been interest in including funding for some form of infrastructure investment in the
Phase 4 or future legislation. However, while House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, along with President
Trump, have expressed interest that the next bill could include substantial investment in
infrastructure projects, because of the growing substantial economic impacts of the pandemic, it
appears that Phase 4 may continue to focus on emergency relief for individuals, small businesses
and health care response.
As discussions are taking place about what might be included in Phase 4, RCTC Chair Ben J. Benoit
sent letters to the Riverside Congressional Delegation on April 7, 2020, urging bipartisan action
to invest in infrastructure as a way to stimulate the economy. Three areas were identified as
having immediate impact:
• Direct Aid Assistance: To keep current and upcoming projects moving and jumpstart
economic recovery, RCTC requests direct aid assistance that backfills lost revenue and
ensure that projects and jobs are not impacted in a serious manner.
• Economic Recovery Funding: Any federal economic recovery funding for surface
transportation should be sub-allocated to implementing agencies such as RCTC who are
responsible for getting projects delivered.
• Surface Transportation Reauthorization: Complete the reauthorization of federal
transportation policy prior to the expiration of the current law – the FAST Act – and ask
that as part of this reauthorization, ensure that regional transportation agencies receive
an increase in federal resources.
RCTC staff and finance team are working to develop additional policy ideas, in alignment with the
Commission adopted 2020 State and Federal Legislative Platform, that could be proposed to help
address the current financial impact of the COVID-19 emergency on RCTC's finance and project
plans. Congress is currently in recess until at least April 20, 2020. Congressional staff continue to
work developing the Phase 4 legislation and RCTC staff will continue to monitor and provide an
update to the Commission on our efforts to impact this legislation to assist RCTC.

Dear Members of the Riverside County Legislative Delegation:
On behalf of the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) and in support of all public transit
operators in Riverside County, I write to strongly urge the Legislature to provide emergency funding to public
transit agencies to offset the direct costs and revenue losses associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. We are
grateful that Congress is working on legislation to provide initial emergency funding for transit operators and
we are assessing how much of those funds will come to Riverside County. As communities wisely adhere to
“safer at home” policies, transit agencies in Riverside County are expected to lose approximately $15.4 million
of operating funds due to the unprecedented drop in ridership and escalating operational costs to ensure healthy
and safe rides during the pandemic. Their shortfalls will depend on the duration of this crisis.
ATTACHMENT 1

Public transportation is an essential element of our regional economy and local communities. Especially during
this time of crisis, public transit is a lifeline for many of our residents who have no other option to access
healthcare or employment. Public transit operators are on the front lines. Without emergency funding, public
transit agencies, particularly those that rely on fare revenue for a significant portion of their operating budgets,
will be required to suspend or drastically curtail such important services.
While our immediate focus is on maintaining front-line public transit operations, we will also soon need to
address the likely significant shortfalls in revenue for capital construction projects that provide thousands of jobs
in Riverside County. As we have seen in previous economic downturns, infrastructure is a cornerstone of
recovery.
Thank you for your consideration of this request. If you have any questions about this request, please contact
Aaron Hake at (AHake@rctc.org) and David Knudsen (DKnudsen@rctc.org).

Subject: COVID-19 Economic Relief and Recovery Response
Dear Congressman Calvert:
On behalf of the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC), thank you for supporting recent
legislation to provide relief to our communities in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. By quickly providing
emergency funding to public transportation agencies through the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security
(CARES) Act, Congress provided immediate relief and investment in public transportation that will allow transit
operators to continue serving the residents of Riverside County. While the assistance to public transportation
agencies was very helpful, it will be necessary to further address the negative financial impacts of the pandemic
to funding sources that sustain infrastructure development and related employment in Riverside County.
RCTC will experience a dramatic reduction in revenue because the very necessary “safer at home” policies have
reduced economic activity in Riverside County. As a “self-help” county, our projects are heavily-reliant on voter-
approved sales tax revenue, toll revenue, and development fees. The majority of RCTC’s revenues come from
these local self-help sources. We also anticipate our revenues from state sources based on sales taxes and fuel
consumption to decline dramatically. The anticipated magnitude of revenue loss will impact the delivery of
projects that reduce traffic congestion, improve the flow of commerce, increase passenger rail connectivity, and
support the jobs of countless residents of Riverside County. Many of these projects have strong support from
your constituents.
As Congress prepares to consider emergency relief and recovery proposals that will restore our national, state,
and local economies, RCTC urges bipartisan action to invest in our nation’s infrastructure as a way to stimulate
the economy.
I want to share with you a few high-level concepts for future legislation that are important to maintaining and
strengthening our regional infrastructure in this time of crisis. In the coming weeks, RCTC will share more
specific policy proposals.
Direct Aid Assistance
To keep current and upcoming projects moving and jumpstart economic recovery, RCTC requests direct aid
assistance that backfills lost revenue and ensure that projects and jobs are not impacted in a serious manner.
RCTC remains hard at work serving our communities, our region, and our state while adhering to highest level
of employee and public safety protocols. Even during this uncertain time, RCTC currently has 11 projects, in or
59
ATTACHMENT 3
beginning construction, worth $738 million. These important projects generate thousands of jobs, expand
economic development, increase safety for the traveling public and move people and goods throughout our
region’s transportation network. Yet, we are concerned that the drastic reduction in revenue will cause
cancellation or indefinite delay of future projects, despite years of work, planning, environmental studies, public
engagement, and investment of taxpayer dollars.
Economic Recovery Funding
Any federal economic recovery funding for surface transportation should be sub-allocated to implementing
agencies such as RCTC who are responsible for getting projects delivered.
The fewer layers of government through which funds must flow before getting to the construction site, the sooner
the economic recovery can get underway and the public can see their tax dollars at work. In addition, we are
exploring changes to federal policies and programs that would provide flexibility to RCTC and other
transportation agencies to expedite current projects or planned projects without unnecessary bureaucratic delays.
Please consider further emergency relief and recovery proposals that both directly funds infrastructure and
improves policy to get that funding to work faster.
Surface Transportation Reauthorization
Finally, we ask that you do everything possible to complete the reauthorization of federal transportation policy
prior to the expiration of the current law – the FAST Act – and ask that as part of this reauthorization, you ensure
that regional transportation agencies receive an increase in federal resources.
Ensuring a robustly funded Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STBG) and including specific funding
for local bridge projects, such as the Hamner Bridge Widening project, are priorities for RCTC.
Thank you for considering our recommendations and your historical support for infrastructure investment in
Riverside County. We look forward to your leadership in this moment as we work together to get Riverside
County moving again. Please contact me or RCTC staff directly to discuss any questions or ideas you have.
Sincerely,
Ben J. Benoit

AGENDA ITEM 8
Agenda Item 8
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE: April 27, 2020
TO: Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM: Ariel Alcon Tapia, Management Analyst
Eric DeHate, Transit Manager
THROUGH: Lorelle Moe-Luna, Multimodal Services Director
SUBJECT: Citizens and Specialized Transit Advisory Council Membership Appointments
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Approve the appointments of 15 members to the Citizens and Specialized Transit Advisory
Council (CSTAC) effective May 13, 2020; and
2) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Transportation Development Act (TDA) provides direction for administering both Local
Transportation Fund and State Transit Assistance funds, which are used to support operational
and capital expenditures for public transit. Section 99238 and 130105 (d) of the TDA regulations
requires the Commission to have a CSTAC as part of the oversight process in administering the
TDA funds. The CSTAC serves the Commission by participating in the transit needs hearing and
reviewing the Short-Range Transit Plans (SRTP) developed by public transit operators as part of
the Commission’s annual budget development process. The TDA regulations require that the
membership consist of the following categorical areas:
1) One representative of a potential transit user 60 years of age and older;
2) One representative of a potential transit user who is disabled;
3) Two representatives of the social service providers for seniors;
4) Two representatives of the social service providers for the disabled, including one
representative of a social service transportation provider, if one exists;
5) One representative of a social service provider for persons of limited means; and
6) Two representatives of a Consolidated Transportation Service Agency(s) designated as
such pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 15975 of the Government Code, including one
representative from an operator, if one exists.
Membership terms are to be staggered to reduce the likeliness of membership relapse causing a
lack of quorum. The adopted bylaws for the CSTAC state that membership can consist of up to
15 members appointed by the Commission and serve at the will and pleasure of the Commission
and without compensation.

Agenda Item 8
DISCUSSION:
In December 2019, the revised CSTAC bylaws were approved to garner more active participation
and staff was directed to recruit new members. Membership is required to reflect a broad
spectrum of interest among geographic areas of the county and minority representation. An
application period took place between January 23, 2020 through March 13, 2020. Various
outreach methods were used to solicit membership:
• Commissioner recommendations;
• Solicitation to existing and previous CAC members and their networks;
• Advertisement on the website, social media, and The Point blog article;
• Email distributions to the Riverside Transportation Network and Specialized
Transit providers, and Transportation NOW chapters;
• Personalized emails and calls to universities and colleges transportation and
student disabilities services departments; and
• Press release
A total of 17 applications were received and reviewed. Staff recommends the appointment of
15 individuals and their associated organizations, as identified in the attachment, for
membership on the CSTAC. RTA and SunLine are standing members due to their Consolidated
Transportation Services Agency (CTSA) designation and are included as part of the 15. Each
appointment would represent at least one of the categories identified in state law and several
communities throughout the county in order to provide a perspective from a wide geographic
area. Citizen appointments are critical to the success of the Commission and its charge to oversee
transit services in the county. The new membership opens dialogue between citizen appointee
representatives and public transit and specialized transit providers in the county. Upon
Commission direction and approval, additional members representing relevant TDA
constituencies can be added to the CSTAC membership in the future.
There is no financial impact for this item.
