6. ANNUAL INVESTMENT POLICY
Theresia Trevino, Chief Financial Officer, provided an update for the revised annual
Investment Policy .
Commissioner Raymond Gregory expressed appreciation for Ms. Trevino’s presentation
and referred to the annual Investment Policy about a change in the event of investing in
a zero interest security and asked if there will be a change with Government Code 53601.6
as mentioned, noting it looks like it remains prohibited by the government code.
Theresia Trevino replied her understanding is that the government code does not allow
for negative interest rate securities but that there is no prohibition on the zero interest
securities. She explained this change specifically came from the Riverside County
Treasure rs Office as far as their suggestion to delete the prohibition in RCTC’s policy
RCTC Budget and Implementation Committee Minutes
July 27, 2020
Page 3
because the government code provides for that. Ms. Trevino stated she will follow up on
that language and make any changes, if necessary, prior to the August Commission
meeting.
Commissioner Gregory concurred about staff following up and stated that Government
Code 53601.6b states a local agency shall not invest any funds pursuant to this article or
pursuant to article 2 commencing with Section 53630 in any security that could result in
zero interest accrual if held to maturity and he stated it goes on to mention there are
some exceptions. Commissioner Gregory stated it seems to be a mistake to take it out
because it might signal, especially to ou t of state contractors, that it is okay w hen it looks
like it remains prohibited by the government code.
Theresia Trevino reiterated that she would look into that.
Commissioner Ben Benoit stated with the questions raised if the Budget and
Implementation Committee should postpone this agenda item.
Anne Mayer, Executive Director, suggested to the Committee Members to conditionally
approve this agenda item today based on staff doing the research on that specific
component. If there is confirmation it conflicts with the government code staff will
remove that one recommendation and leave the rest of staff recommendations for
Commission approval.
Commissioner Benoit asked Commissioner Gregory if he wanted to make that motion and
he will second it.
Commissioner Chuck Washington clarified relative to Anne Mayer’s comment, this
committee is not approving this agenda item as it has to go to the entire Commission for
approval. He stated it is already conditional based on the Commission’s approval and
suggested with Ms. Trevino’s comment the language will adjust as she finds information
prior to the August Commission meeting. He suggested to adopt staff’s recommendation
knowing that it is going to get adjusted if it needs to be adjusted or not.
Chair White confirmed with Commissioner Gregory if that is his motion.
Commissioner Gregory stated he would prefer to move this agenda item forward to be
heard by the entire Commission and that staff research the item in question.
M/S/C (Gregory/Benoit) to:
1) Adopt Resolution No. 20-012, “Resolution of the Riverside County
Transportation Commission Regarding the Revised Investment Policy”;
2) Adopt the revised annual Investment Policy; and
3) Forward to the Commission for final action.

8. COACHELLA FESTIVAL SPECIAL EVENTS TRAIN PLATFORM DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
UPDATE
Sheldon Peterson, Rail Manager, presented the Coachella Festival Special Events Train
Platform Development Project update and its challenges, highlighting the following areas:
• Background:
o Amtrak successfully ran Coachella Express to Festival in 2008
o RCTC, LOSSAN, Amtrak, and Union Pacific Railroad - staff begin project
coordination in 2016
o Location identified with city of Indio
o $5,942,510 State Rail Assistance awarded
o $2,745,731 Proposition 1B funds programmed
o $8,688,241 project cost
• Proposed Indio Temporary Platform sketch
• Project Development/Challenges:
o Consultant developed 30 percent design for temporary platform
o 10-car ADA platform designed with separate station tracks
o Railroad operations and ROW approval required
o Railroad capacity and freight operations concerns
o Current proposal to operate service is not financially viable
• Recent Actions/Moving Forward:
o Design beyond 30 percent requires specific agreements
o LOSSAN and CalSTA recommend to suspend efforts
o Indio platform design process can be reinstated in the future
o Staff proposes to apply funding to larger Coachella Valley Rail Study for
daily service
Commissioner Gregory expressed appreciation for Mr. Peterson’s presentation and for
his efforts as this has been an important project for everyone - due to the people that
travel back and forth to these festivals and create traffic to the roadways all the way
through I-10, SR -91, SR-60 also with the pollution and other ill effects . He expressed
concern that the record is clear on what happened and referred to the Desert Sun
RCTC Budget and Implementation Committee Minutes
July 27, 2020
Page 5
newspaper article that quoted John Standiford, Deputy Executive Director and
Commissioner Lisa Middleton speaking about the LOSSAN action. He discussed how the
attached LOSSAN letter does not reference they decided, rather it is stating the
Commission decided to stop the effort at this time and return the funding. Commissioner
Gregory referred to the newspaper article which stated the problem was with Union
Pacific Railroad, yet spokesman Tim McMann for Union Pacific Railroad (UP) said that UP
is okay and wants to see this project move forward and Commissioner Gregory read the
quote from Mr. McMann. He expressed concern the record is kind of muddy at least in
the eye of the public and he is uncertain what exactly happened to prompt this now. He
then asked if the substantial access fee that was mentioned was the deciding factor and
why that is not being shared with the public.
Anne Mayer clarified LOSSAN’s role and explained when they went forward with this
proposal the grant funding received was to go towards the physical improvements on the
capital improvement side. LOSSAN was going to operate the trains so LOSSAN had
included funding to operate the trains in their annual budget and RCTC would build the
platform. The operations related activit ies were sorted out as LOSSAN coordinated with
Amtrak and there were enough funds to operate it, but for at least a couple of years their
conversations with UP were going very slowly . She discussed the prospective Indio
Platform and how UP had concerns about that because the rail lines along I -10 are the
most heavily traveled freight line in California. She discussed how UP asked RCTC not to
build a temporary platform at that location in Indio, and to stop at the existing platform
in Palm Springs, which created concern as to Valley Music Travel would have to shuttle
everyone all the way to the festivals. She expressed what was trying to be accomplished
for the purposes of providing rail service to the Coachella special events conflicted with
their business requirements related to keeping other passenger trains off the rail line so
it did not interfere with UP’s freight service. Anne Mayer expressed in addition to
minimizing the amount of physical improvements that were being made RCTC was also
asked to provide an access fee, wherein the grant funds would need to be used to pay UP
an access fee instead of building a platform. She discussed how that business model is
being used elsewhere in the state, that if passenger rail wants to use freight rail lines then
passenger rail has to pay an access fee . She explained from a staff perspective using that
grant money to pay an access fee was not appropriate in this circumstance for a special
event train service; noting to pay millions of dollars for rail access for three weekends did
not make sense from a staff perspective. In conversations with LOSSAN staff and CalSTA
staff it was agreed that the recommendation would be to return the grant funding
because they could not justify using public taxpayer dollars for only three weekends of
service. She discussed how LOSSAN staff felt a sense of urgency because they were
getting ready to approve their budget for the operating dollars, which that notification
went out prior to RCTC’s July Budget and Implementation Committee and August
Commission agendas being posted. She then explained from a UP perspective they did
not say no, but the conditions that were placed on it out of their business needs make it
from RCTC’s perspective not a good investment of public funds.

Commissioner Gregory stated her comments helped and it answered the question about
why a decision was made, moved forward and it was not brought to the Commission yet.
He stated Ms. Mayer explained it and he accepts it, but he asked why is RCTC not putting
in writing the reason why as it makes sense and asked how this affects the future
possibility of the San Gorgonio-Coachella Valley daily rail services .
Anne Mayer concurred with Commissioner Gregory’s comments and stated staff’s goal
was to have this conversation with the Commissioners at the Budget and Implementation
Committee and the Commission meetings, which is a public setting so staff could provide
the information and the Commissioners could ask questions. She discussed how staff
responded to the Desert Sun and how the article was not the appropriate place to share
information since the Commissioners were not aware of it yet and she apologized that
the sequence got out of order. She stated at the Commissioners’ direction staff can reach
out to the Desert Sun to provide the correct information. With respect to the San
Gorgonio-Coachella Valley rail service RCTC is many years into the Tier 1environmental
document for the ultimate project, which is two round trips per day between Los Angeles
and Indio. Once the Tier 1 environmental document is complete RCTC will go into a Tier
2 document, which is where what actual improvements will be made so that the project
can go forward. She discussed how in the Tier 1 document RCTC will need to triple track
between Colton and Indio, which is UP’s most highly traveled corridor. If there is a way
with the construction of a third track that both freight and passenger rail can be
accommodated there may be a possibility that RCTC could come to some sort of
agreement with UP, but the cost of that triple tracking likely approaches a billion dollars .
Anne Mayer explained this is not something that RCTC will be able to fund and will need
the state partners at CalSTA to do so and expects that if RCTC gets through this Tier 1
document there will be several years of conversations between UP, RCTC, the Federal
Railroad Administration, and CalSTA to discuss how this can work and have a balance
between freight rail needs and passenger rail needs, which is not going to be an easy task
for any of the entities.
Commissioner Gregory expressed appreciation for Ms. Mayer’s comments and stated it
would not be wise necessarily to go back and engage. He suggested as this moves forward
in the agenda item there should be a little more discussion to the access fee and how that
played into the decision.
Anne Mayer concurred that staff will make those modifications.

AGENDA ITEM 6
Agenda Item 6
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE: August 24, 2020
TO: Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM Marla Dye , Senior External Affairs Management Analyst
THROUGH: Aaron Hake , External Affairs Director
SUBJECT: Quarterly Public Engagement Metrics Report, April-June 2020
STAFF RECOMMENDATION :
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Receive and file the Quarterly Public Engagement Metrics Report for April-June 2020; and
2) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION :
Staff continues to measure public engagement activities and prepare Quarterly Public
Engagement Metrics Reports for the Commission, a practice that began in April 2018. This report
covers the second quarter of 2020, from April to June. The quarterly reports are a
data-driven approach to monitor the Commission’s progress toward public engagement goals , to
analyze the effectiveness of its efforts, and to provide transparency into how the Commission is
using its resources to engage with the public. This quarter’s report includes four sets of data:
1) Metrics for RCTC’s overall public engagement activities , including website use and access;
website top pages visited; email notifications; social media likes, engagement and reach;
and public sentiment
2) Metrics for RCTC’s Interstate 15 Express Lanes Project public engagement activities ,
including email activity, website sessions, and social media
3) Metrics for the State Route 60 Truck Lane s Project includes email activity, website
sessions, and social media
4) Metrics for the Interstate 15 Railroad Canyon Interchange Project. Note that these
numbers remain small, due to only a few months of activity.
Report highlights for this quarter follow and are included in a graphical format. Not surprisingly,
the metrics showed declines across platforms and mixed sentiment. The declines are due to a
combination of the public’s focus on COVID-19 and the Commission’s decision to limit its public
engagement efforts during this sensitive time . In addition, the Commission concluded its work
on the Traffic Relief Plan, which significantly reduced public engagement activity. The quarterly
reports will evolve to include metrics from new Commission projects , including the upcoming
1
Agenda Item 6
I-215 Placentia In terchange, the 91 Corridor Operations Project, and the 15/91 Express Lanes
Connector.
RCTC Overall Public Engagement
1) Website
a. For the quarter, there were 27,363 website sessions, a 17 percent de crease from
last quarter’s 32,858 sessions. There also were 16,829 unique users, a de crease
of 21 percent compared to the previous quarter’s 21,233 unique users.
b. Most visitors (41 percent) accessed the website through organic searches, such as
Google. Another 22 percent used a direct search (keying in rctc.org). Others used
social media (30 percent), and website referrals (7 percent).
c. Website access via desktop versus mobile slightly shifted . During the quarter,
43 percent accessed the website using a desktop computer and 57 percent used
mobile devices. During the previous quarter, the ratio was 46 to 54 percent.
d. The homepage continues to be the most frequently visited page, followed this
quarter by the Interstate 15 Railroad Canyon Interchange page, the Meetings &
Agendas page, and the blog post related to the new 91 westbound lane
(91 Corridor Operations Project).
2) Social Media
a. Facebook: At the end of the quarter, the Facebook page had 9,618 likes, a
.5 percent increase over last quarter’s 9,565 likes . The page had 6,182 forms of
engagement, such as likes, comments and shares, a 36 percent decrease from last
quarter’s 9,619 forms of engagement. Facebook also had 194,791 impressions .
This was a large decline – 96 percent – from last quarter’s 5.4 million impressions
– likely due to a significant decrease in digital advertising and overall social media
content, due to RCTC’s decision to scale back its presence during the first few
months of the COVID-19 pandemic.
b. Twitter: RCTC’s Twitte r page showed a 1 percent increase in followers, from 1,264
to 1,282. Engagement declined by 98 percent, from 35,523 to 698. Impressions
reduced by 95 percent from 715,890 to 34,806. Again, this lower engagement is
likely due to COVID-19.
c. Instagram: The Instagram page followers grew 4 percent, from 653 to
680 followers . Engagement declined 49 percent, from 410 forms of engagement
to 209. Impressions decreased 62 percent to 4,078, compared to last quarter’s
10,639.
d. Overall, public sentiment was mostly positive, but with low er than typical
engagement levels . Engagement was positive related to safety protocols for
essential workers on RCTC projects, the launch of I-15 Railroad Canyon social
media, and support for funding of the 71/91 Interchange.

AGENDA ITEM 7
Agenda Item 7
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE: August 24, 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 Legislature is in the final days of the 2019-2020 legislative session. This second year of the
two-year session has been anything but normal. For the last several weeks, the Legislature has
been working to pass legislation albeit under COVID-19 safety protocols which limited the
number of bill introductions and reduced the number of legislative hearings. As a result, only a
certain number of bills, often related to COVID-19, were granted bill hearings. The last day for
fiscal committees to meet and report bills was on August 21, 2020, and today marks the last day
to amend bills on the floor. August 31, 2020 is the Constitutionally mandated deadline for either
house to pass bills. The Governor will have until September 30, 2020 to sign or veto any bills on
his desk.
RCTC staff will continue to monitor and participate in the legislative process through the end of
the legislative session.
Executive Order N-19-19
On September 20, 2019, Governor Gavin Newsom signed Executive Order N-19-19 (EO N -19-19)
requiring that every aspect of state government redouble its efforts to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions and mitigate climate change impacts while building a sustainable, inclusive economy.
EO N -19-19 directs the California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA) to leverage discretionary
state transportation funds to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector and
adapt to climate change. Additionally, EO N -19-19 directs CalSTA :
9
Agenda Item 7
• To align transportation spending with the State’s Climate Change Scoping Plan
where feasible;
• Direct investments to strategically support smart growth to increase infill housing
production;
• Reduce congestion through strategies that encourage a reduction in driving and
invest further in walking, biking, and transit; and
• Ensure that overall transportation costs for low income Californians do not
increase as a result of these policies.
To implement EO N -19-19, CalSTA developed ten investment strategies to guide how to prioritize
the State's transportation investments.
RCTC and other stakeholder groups were asked to participate in a survey to provide comments
to the ten strategies. RCTC provided answers to the five -question survey on August 6, 2020. The
ten investment strategies are attached to this report. Following the survey, it is expected that
CalSTA will hold a series of workshops and stakeholder meetings to inform and receive feedback
on EO N -19-19’s implementation. RCTC staff will participate in these workshops to ensure that
Riverside County is part of the discussion.
Competitive Grant Funding Update
Staff at the California Transportation Commission (CTC) are reviewing applications for the Local
Partnership Program (LPP), Trade Corridor Enhancement Program (TCEP), and Solutions for
Congested Corridors Program (SCCP) competitive grant programs. Over the last three months
RCTC applied to each of these grant programs seeking funds for the SR-71/91 Interchange
Improvement Project. The investment of these funds, along with funding from the State
Transportation Improvement Program, will facilitate construction of the $117 million interchange
project.
RCTC’s grant applications for the SR-71/91 Interchange Improvement Project include:
• LPP - $25 million
• TCEP - $58.1 million
• SCCP - $58 million
CTC staff recommendations are expected to be announced in November 2020.
In February and May of this year, RCTC submitted federal grant applications for $25 million from
each of the Infrastructure for Rebuilding America (INFRA) and Better Utilizing Investments to
Leverage Development (BUILD) competitive grant programs for the SR-71/91 Interchange
Improvement Project. Unfortunately, not one California project, including the SR-71/91
Interchange Improvement Project, was awarded an INFRA grant this year. BUILD grant awards
will be announced by September 15, 2020.
10
Agenda Item 7
Federal Update
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act Funding
RCTC staff has been working with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to apply for CARES Act
funding for RCTC’s vanpool program, known as VanClub. The statewide “stay at home” orders,
increase in telework, and social distancing requirements as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic
has reduced the use of transit services, including RCTC’s vanpool program. RCTC is seeking CARES
Act funding to reimburse $1.4 million in operational expenses associated with the 59 percent
reduction in the number of vanpools from March to August.
While vanpooling is considered an official FTA Transit Mode and it is RCTC staffs’ assessment that
the entire vanpool program, including program capital cost of contracting and program
administration, are eligible for CARES Act funding since the vanpool program was approved by
the FTA as a transit mode to enter data into the National Transit Database. RCTC staff is working
with FTA Region IX staff to secure as much CARES Act funding as possible for VanClub ahead of
the August 31, 2020 application deadline.
Coachella Valley–San Gorgonio Pass Rail Corridor Service (CV Rail)
RCTC, Caltrans, and the Federal Rail Administration (FRA) have been working to complete a
Tie r 1 Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report (Tier 1/Program EIS/EIR)
and Service Development Plan (SDP) for the CV Rail project. Progress on the project has stalled
over a new FRA requirement.
Given the significance of the CV Rail pro ject on the local economy and the limited funding
available to complete this phase of environmental analysis, RCTC reached out to the Federal
Permitting Improvement and Steering Council (Council), a special office within the Executive
Office of the President. The Council was established by the Fixing America’s Surface
Transportation (FAST) Act in 2015 to be an impartial federal partner responsible for overseeing
interagency coordination and process improvements for certain eligible infrastructure projects.
The Council is composed of representatives at the agency Deputy Secretary-level and is chaired
by an Executive Director, appointed by the President. The Council is now working with RCTC to
identify the obstacles and determine a path forward with FRA to complete the Tier 1/Program
EIS/EIR document.
In August, Caltrans and RCTC will meet again with FRA to seek their approval on the
Administrative draft Tier 1/Program EIS/EIR while also working with the Council.
Appropriations
On July 31, 2020 U.S. House of Representatives passed a $1.3 trillion package of Fiscal Year 2021
appropriations bills. The package consists of six bills of the twelve appropriations bills that fund
federal departments. This package included the Transportation, and Housing and Urban
11
Agenda Item 7
Development (THUD) appropriations bill to fund U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)
from October 1, 2020 to September 30, 2021. The USDOT would receive $107.2 billion in total
budgetary resources, an increase of $21.1 billion above FY20 appropriations.
Funding includes:
• $1 billion for National Infrastructure Investments (TIGER/BUILD)
• $1 billion for discretionary Highway Infrastructure Programs
• $510 million for Transit Infrastructure Grants
• $500 million for Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements
• $300 million for the Port Infrastructure Development Program
The bill also includes an additional $26 billion in emergency funding for resilient transportation
programs and supporting economic recovery from the coronavirus pandemic.
As of this staff report, the U.S. Senate has not yet begun consideration of any of the twelve
appropriations. Therefore, there will need to be a continuing resolution (CR) to fund federal
programs from October 1st until, presumably, sometime following the federal elections.
The House will recess from October 5, 2020 and return after the election on November 13, 2020,
for a lame duck session and it is expected that the Senate will have a similar schedule.
Surf ace Transportation Reauthorization Legislation
Congress has not yet finalized, as of this staff report, the reauthorization of a new surface
transportation bill to replace the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, set to expire
on September 30, 2020.
As was previously reported, on July 1, 2020 The House passed the Moving Forward Act, a
$1.5 trillion infrastructure bill that included nearly $500 billion for the New Vision for the
Environment and Surface Transportation in America (INVEST) Act, a five -year reauthorization of
federal surface transportation programs. The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee
passed its version of the reauthorization of the FAST Act in 2019, with additional Senate
Committees' action still pending.
There are still several steps, including passage of a bill in the full Senate, a bill conference
between the House and the Senate, and then the signature of the President that have to take
place before a final surface transportation reauthorization bill can be enacted into law. If surface
transportation programs are not reauthorized by September 30, 2020, Congress will have to
enact an extension of current programs for a period of time and we anticipate an extension to
be enacted next month.
RCTC staff will continue to participate in the federal process to advocate for transportation
infrastructure policies that benefit Riverside County residents and commuters.
12
Agenda Item 7
COVID-19 Federal Response
Four 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), the $2 trillion CARES Act (March 27, 2020), and Paycheck Protection
Program and Health Care Enhancement Act (April 24, 2020). With these legislative packages,
Congress has appropriated nearly $3 trillion in COVID-19 relief spending. While the House and
Senate negotiate the potential of an additional COVID-19 related relief legislative package , in
early August, Pre sident Trump signed four COVID-19 related Executive Orders aimed at:
• Extending COVID-19 Economic Relief
• Extending Enhanced Unemployment Benefits; and
• Federal Eviction Moratorium
• Suspending Federal Student Loan Payment
RCTC staff will continue to monitor and participate in federal infrastructure and stimulus
legislation discussion.
The House and Senate are on recess, likely until September 14, 2020. In the interim, if there is a
breakthrough on COVID-19 relief legislation, they will return to vote on such a package. Congress
has to pass a Continuing Resolution to fund the government and extend federal surface
transportation programs before September 30, 2020, while also possibly addressing remaining
COVID-19 relief needs, before adjourning again for the elections in November. Given the number
of legislative items with this pending deadline, a fast-paced legislative schedule is expected for
the last two weeks of September.

Draft 07/21/20
State investments should deploy the following strategies, as applicable:
1.Reduce public health harms and maximize benefits to disproportionately
impacted disadvantaged communities, low -income communities, and communities
of color, in urbanized and rural regions and involve these communities early in
decision-making. Investments should also avoid placing new or exacerbating
existing substantial burdens on communities, even if unintentional.
2.Make safety improvements to reduce fatalities and severe injuries of all users
towards zero on our roadways and transit systems by focusing on context-
appropriate speeds, prioritizing vulnerable user safety to support mode shift, and
ultimately implementing a safe systems approach.
3.Assess physical climate risk as standard practice for transportation infrastructure
projects to enable informed decision making, especially in communities that are
most vulnerable to climate risks.
4.Promote projects that do not increase passenger vehicle travel, particularly in
urbanized settings where other mobility options can be provided. Projects should
aim to reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and not induce significant VMT growth.
When addressing congestion, consider alternatives to highway capacity expansion,
such as providing multimodal options in the corridor, employing demand
management strategies (i.e. pricing), and using technology to optimize operations.
5.Build towards an integrated, statewide rail and transit network, centered around
the existing California State Rail Plan that leverages the California Integrated Travel
Program to provide seamless, affordable, multimodal interregional travel options to
all.
6.Promote compact infill development while protecting residents and
businesses from displacement by supporting transportation projects that support
housing for low income residents near job centers, provide walkable communities,
and address affordability to reduce the housing-transportation cost burden and
reduce auto trips.
7.Progress developing a zero-emission freight transportation system that avoids
and mitigates environmental justice impacts, reduces criteria and toxic air pollutants,
improves freight’s economic competitiveness and efficiency, and integrates
multimodal design and planning into infrastructure development on freight corridors.
8.Incorporate safe and accessible bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure on
portions of the State Highway System that intersect active tran sportation networks,
provide accessibility for transit users, or serve as small town or rural main streets,
particularly in low income and disadvantaged communities across the state.
9.Include investments in light, medium, and heavy-duty zero-emission-vehicle
(ZEV) infrastructure or supportive infrastructure as part of larger transportation
projects. Support the innovation in and development of the ZEV market and help
ensure ZEVs are accessible to all, particularly to those in more rural or remote
communiti es.
10.Protect natural and working lands from conversion to more intensified uses by
supporting local and regional conservation planning that focuses development
where it already exists to help retain carbon sequestration benefits.

Draft 07/21/20 Necessary Actions to Support Climate Investment Strategies
To ensure investments are made in ways that align with the aforementioned strategies,
changes may be necessary to transportation planning, programming, project delivery,
maintenance, and operations. Such changes will help advance a slate of projects that
meet climate goals, ensure that these projects are prioritized for state funding, and
promote project construction and operations that minimize emissions and impacts from
climate change. Many of the necessary changes are currently underway, but additional
efforts may be needed. This Action Plan identifies those existing and additional actions
necessary for implementation of the EO.

AGENDA ITEM 8
Agenda Item 8
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE: August 24, 2020
TO: Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM: Eric DeHate, Transit Manager
THROUGH: Lorelle Moe -Luna, Multimodal Services Director
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2020/21 State of Good Repair Program Allocations
STAFF RECOMMENDATION :
This item is for the Comm ittee to:
1)Approve Resolution No. 20-014, “Resolution of the Riverside County Transportation
Commission Approving the FY 2020/21 Project List for the California State of Good Repair
Program”;
2)A pprove an allocation of $4,211,059 related to Fiscal Year 2020/21 State of Good Repair
(SGR) program funds to eligible Riverside County transit operators;
3)Authorize staff to allocate increased SCO revenue estimates up to $421,102, or 10 percent
of the current estimate, to eligible Riverside County transit operators;
4)Approve an increase of $258,859 in the FY 2020/21 budget for SGR revenues to reflect
updated SCO estimates;
5)Authorize the Executive Director, or designee, to review, approve and submit projects to
Caltrans which are consistent with SGR program guidelines and to execute and submit
required documents for the SGR program, including the Authorized Agent Form;
6)Authorize the Executive Director, or designee, to approve administrative amendments to
the FY 2020/21 Short Range Transit Plans (SRTPs) for incorporation of the SGR funds, as
necessary; and
7)Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The SGR program was established through Senate Bill (SB) 1 in April 2017 and is funded from a
portion of the new Transportation Improvement Fee on vehicle registrations. SGR provides
approximately $105 million annually to transit operators in California for eligible transit
maintenance, rehabilitation, and capital projects. Funds are apportioned similar to the State
Transit Assistance (STA) program formula, utilizing two categories for funding : population and
transit operator revenues. Apportionments by population are discretionary and fall under Public
Utilities Code (PUC) 99313 and apportionments for transit operator revenues are non-
discretionary and fall under PUC 99314. Apportionments for both PUC 99313 and 99314 are
determined by the SCO. The total estimated amount of SGR funds available to Riverside County
for FY 2020/21 is $4,211,059. Of this amount, $3,612,115 is apportioned by population under
18
Agenda Item 8
PUC 99313, and will be sub-allocated by the Commission . PUC 99314 provides $598,944 directly
to the transit operators as determined by the SCO.
As the Regional Transportation Planning Agency for Riverside County, the Commission has the
following responsibilities:
•Receive and allocate SGR funds to transit operators based on local needs (PUC 99313) and
based on formula amounts published by the SCO (PUC 99314);
•Via board resolution, approve the annual list of SGR projects submitted by the public
transit operators and ensure funds are expended on SGR-eligible activities;
•Complete an updated authorized agent form; and
•Comply with all relevant federal and state laws, regulations, and policies for funding.
In order to receive funding for FY 2020/21, by September 1, the Commission is required to submit
to Caltrans a resolution , which confirms the Commission is an eligible project sponsor and may
receive, distribute, concur and approve the list of projects , which are to be funded under the SGR
program. Revised SGR funding amounts were released on August 1, 2020. Due to the board
meeting schedule, Caltrans approved the Commission’s request to submit an approved
resolution and project list by September 30.
Staff recommends approval of Resolution No. 20-014, which is included as Attachment 1 to the
report. Attachment 2 of this report represents amounts allocated to each transit operator for
project allocation. Sub -allocations for PUC 99313 were based on a population distribution by
subregion and a distribution of 78 percent to bus and 22 percent to rail in Western Riverside
County. Staff reviewed the current distribution methodology and recommends the continued
sub-allocation for FY 2020/21 SGR funds.
It is important to note that the funding allocation is an estimate provided by the SCO. Actual
funds received are based on the Transportation Improvement Fee collected on vehicle
registrations. Most funding sources the Commission oversees have a fund balance, which
provides stability in changes to economic conditions and allows projects and programs to move
forward even during economic uncertainty. Caltrans requires all SGR funds to be programmed
leaving little to no fund balance, which impacts operators to use these funds as expeditiously as
Caltrans would prefer.
Staff included the January estimates provided by the SCO for SGR funding allocations
concurrently with the annual Short-Range Transit Plan allocation process approved by the
Commission in June. Staff did not include the resolution during that process anticipating a revised
estimate in August from the SCO and subsequent board authorization. The August estimate
provided by the SCO, shows an increase of 6.6 percent over the January estimate. Any increases
in funding allocation s to the transit operators require staff to return to the Commission for
approval. Any decreases in funding allocations is within the approved amount the Commission
authorizes and can be amended administratively. Due to the fluctuations in funding and revisions
to the quarterly estimates provided by the SCO, staff recommends authorization for an increase
19
Agenda Item 8
to the allocation for up to 10 percent of the current allocation in the event of an increased SCO
estimate and authorize the Executive Director, or designee, to approve administrative
amendments to the FY 2020/21 SRTPs for incorporation of the SGR funds, as necessary.

RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE: August 24, 2020
TO: Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM: Sheldon Peterson, Rail Manager
Lorelle Moe -Luna, Multimodal Services Director
THROUGH: John Standiford, Deputy Executive Director
SUBJECT:
Approval of Metrolink Operating and Capital Subsidies for Fiscal Year 2020/21 ,
Related Memorandum of Understanding, and RCTC Short Range Transit Plan
Amendment
STAFF RECOMMENDATION :
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Receive and file a report on highlights from the Southern California Regional Rail
Authority’s (SCRRA) services;
2) Approve the Fiscal Year (FY) 2020/21 SCRRA operating and capital budget, which results
in an operating subsidy of $23,780,000 and capital subsidy of $7,961,548 for the
Commission ;
3) Amend the FY 2020/21 RCTC Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP) to address changes in the
funding sources to meet Metrolink’s annual request;
4) Authorize the Executive Director to finalize and execute Memorandum of Understanding
(MOU) No. 20-25-091-01, Amendment No. 1 to MOU No. 20-25-091-00, with SCRRA
regarding annual funding, including subrecipient matters related to pass-through of
federal funding; and
5) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION :
Metrolink is the brand name for the services operated by SCRRA. SCRRA is a joint powers
authority (JPA) that is comprised of five member agencies. All member agencies must formally
commit to fund their proportionate shares of commuter rail operating and capital costs on an
annual basis. Each member agency must approve the budget before adoption of a final budget
by the SCRRA Board of Directors, typically no later than June 30, 2020. However, due to the
disruption that the COVID-19 pandemic has caused the transit industry, SCRRA approved a
continuing resolution in June to fund the first three months of FY 2020/21 to maintain the current
funding levels for the first quarter of FY 2020/21. On July 24, 2020, SCRRA formally provided a
transmittal letter with the proposed FY 2020/21 budget requirements for member agency
consideration and adoption and anticipates adopting the final budget by September 30, 2020. As
required by the provisions of the JPA, a separate Commission action to adopt the budget is
req uired .
23
Agenda Item 9
Metrolink’s Proposed FY 2020/21 Budget
Metrolink’s proposed total operating budget for FY 2020/21 is $260.5 million and is based on
forecasted ridership recovery using “Scenario 2 – Recession (Medium Case)” (Attachment 1).
Under this scenario, Metrolink forecasts that ridership will recover by FY 2022/23 in the 3rd
quarter. For purposes of service in FY 2020/21, Metrolink anticipates restoring full service from
its current 30 percent service reduction in FY 2020/21 in the 3rd quarter, or by Spring 2021, in
order to maintain social dis tancing. This is a decrease of $2.4 million, or 1 percent, from the
FY 2019/20 budget of $262.9 million.
The table below is a summary of Metrolink’s proposed FY 2020/21 operating and capital budget
and each member agency’s proposed subsidies. The fiv e member agencies that comprise
Metrolink are responsible for funding $217 million , or 83 percent, and the remaining
$43.5 million, or 17 percent, will comprise of farebox and other revenues. Of the $217 million,
$70.6 million will come from member agencies’ Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security
(CARES) Act allocation s. The Commission’s total operating obligation is $17,027,338.

As shown above, Metrolink’s proposed capital budget for FY 2020/21 is about $53.5 million, and
will only include rehabilitation projects. The capital budget is a decrease of $12.4, or 19 percent,
from FY 2019/20. The Commission’s capital obligation for FY 2020/21 is $7,961,548. Per
Metrolink’s transmittal letter there is a carryover balance of rehabilitation capital funds of
$11,612,895 and a new capital carryover balance of $3,280,576 which has been programmed and
allocated in previous years.
Metrolink’s budget excludes the Commission’s expenses for the nine RCTC-owned stations.
These expenses were approved in the Commission’s adoption of the FY 2020/21 budget and
include station operations and maintenance, right of way, and other station capital projects.

Agenda Item 9
Metrolink Service Highlights
The following is a review of Metrolink’s FY 2019/20 activities:
• Celebrated its 27th year of operations;
• For the period from June 2019 to February 2020 ridership was growing approximately 3%
on lines serving Riverside County; however, due to the stay at home orders in mid -March
2020, ridership was down 22% for FY 2019/20 for Riverside County lines;
• Train schedules were reduced 30 percent beginning on March 26;
• Conducted COVID-19 Customer Survey that found that 81 percent of all riders are likely
to return to Metrolink and that most riders self -identify as “Essential Workers;”
• Enhanced vehicle and station cleaning and sanitation efforts were implemented along
with social distancing efforts to address safety concerns;
• With reduced demand and service, capital construction efforts intensified to utilize
available work windows and e quipment availability for rehabilitation efforts;
• Received delivery of additional Tier 4 locomotives with the target of all 40 units to be on
site by the end of 2020; and
• Metrolink operated an extremely successful 2019 Festival of Lights special train seas on,
as well as Rams Football trains, Angels Express and Holiday Express Trains.
Looking ahead to FY 2020/21, Metrolink intends to:
• Implement a Recovery Plan Framework to prioritize safety to protect employees and
customers against the spread of COVID-19 while also providing a phased approach to
recovery based on fluid circumstances;
• A ward both an operations contract and a mini-bundled contract for Track and Signal
Infrastructure Maintenance Support Services;
• When the timing is appropriate, e xplore innovative fare options to incentivize
telecommuting and other riders to ride the train including Kids Ride Free, Loyalty
Program, and enhanced Corporate Partner Program toward health care industry;
• Continue to improve reliability, on -time performance, and the customer experience by
enhancing the rehabilitation program to reduce major failures by retrofitting cars; and
• Continue implementing the Positive Train Control program system-wide in coordination
with the freight railroads.
Financial Impact
Staff recommends approval of Metrolink’s proposed FY 2020/21 budget and an amendment to
RCTC’s FY 2020/21 SRTP to meet the Commission’s operating and capital obligations. The SRTP
serves as the Commission’s primary mechanism to allocate and justify federal and state funds for
transit operations and capital needs.
The Commission’s total operating funding requirement for Metrolink services in FY 2020/21 is
$23,780,000 and the net subsidy after federal CARES funding and the FY 2019/20 surplus is
$15,291,858. At the June 2020 Commission meeting, the Commission approved a combination
25
Agenda Item 9
of federal and state funds to be allocated for Metrolink services. Based on Metrolink’s proposed
FY 2020/21 budget, staff recommends an increase d SRTP allocation of $1,776,990 of Local
Transportation Funds to meet the annual operating obligation. This was anticipated during the
Commission’s budget process; therefore , a budget adjustment is not necessary. Additionally, the
Commission also approved the use of Federal Transit Administration (FTA ) Section 5337 funds in
January 2020 for capital rehabilitation , which will be programmed in the FY 2020/21 SRTP to
meet the Commission’s Metrolink capital obligation. These revisions are reflected in the
Commissio n’s revised FY 2020/21 SRTP Requested Funding Summary in Attachment 2.
Staff also recommends that the Commission authorize the Executive Director to finalize and
execute revised MOU No. 20-25-091-01 (Attachment 3) with SCRRA regarding the use of the
grant funds allocated in the SRTP and complying with federal subrecipient pass-through
requirements.

TRANSMITTAL DATE: July 2, 2020
MEETING DATE: July 10, 2020 ITEM 21
TO: Audit and Finance Committee
FROM: Stephanie Wiggins, Chief Executive Officer
SUBJECT: Transmittal of the Authority’s Proposed FY2020-21
Operating and Capital Program Budgets
Issue
The Authority is required, under the Joint Powers Authority (JPA), to provide to its Member
Agencies, on or before May 1 of each year, a Proposed Budget for the coming fiscal year
(effective July 1, the start of the fiscal year) for individual agency consideration and
approval. The impact of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) disrupted the ability of the
Authority to transmit a proposed budget by the annual deadline. During the stay-at-home
orders which took effect in March, staff has worked diligently to keep MAAC members
informed about the status of budget developments. A budget has now been produced
incorporating the fiscal realities arising from COVID-19.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Board approve:
1) The transmittal of the Proposed FY2020-21(FY21) Budget for consideration and
adoption by Member Agencies by September 30th;
2) The option of a mid-year budget review and possible adjustment to be brought to
the Metrolink Board in January of 2021; and

Strategic Goal Alignment
This report aligns with the strategic goal to maintain fiscal sustainability.
Background
Formal development of the FY21 Budget began in December 2019, with budget
development updates presented to the Audit and Finance Committee in January 2020
and the Board in March 2020. In March, the CEO immediately took action to limit
29

spending for the remainder of FY20, including initiating a 30% service reduction, a hiring
freeze, a freeze on business travel, and a robust review of spending by every department
to determine possible areas for savings and deferrals of spending. This last exercise
alone resulted in the identification of $8 million in cost savings throughout the
organization. By the end of April, ridership had dropped to 10% of levels for the previous
year.
The CEO received approval from the Board at the April 24, 2020 meeting to delay
transmittal of the Proposed FY21 Budget to the Member Agencies until August 1 and
defer budget consideration and adoption until September 30, 2020.
With the support of the Member Agencies, at its June 26 Meeting, the Board approved a
Three-Month Continuing Appropriations Resolution, to provide funding during the period
of the development of the revised budget.
Discussion
The designation of the COVID-19 as a pandemic by the World Health Organization and
subsequent national, state, and local emergency declarations in March has led to the
precipitous decline in ridership in response to the health guidance to limit travel to
essential workers only. As of the preparation of this report, the stay-at-home orders are
still in effect and, because of the latest rise in the rate of positive cases of coronavirus,
uncertainty remains as to the length of the orders in the region.
Development of the Proposed FY21 Budget amidst COVID-19
This section describes how Metrolink staff arrived at the final Proposed FY21 Budget in
the COVID-19 environment.
In tandem with spending constraints, staff developed various scenarios for recovery.
Worst-case, Medium-case and Best-case ridership scenarios forecasted various
improvements in ridership as shown below:
• Scenario 1 - Muted Recovery (Worst Case): Major economic downturn. Ridership
recovery prolonged until FY24 Q3
• Scenario 2 - Recession (Medium Case): Medical crisis triggers recession.
Ridership recovery by FY23 Q3
• Scenario 3 - No Recession (Best Case): Ridership recovery by FY22 Q3

Options Considered
A determination was made that the Medium-case scenario should be the basis for
Operating Revenues for the Proposed FY21 Budget. This scenario models a return to
50% of FY20 ridership by the end of FY21, which provides ridership for the entire FY21
year of only 34% of FY20.
The budget includes restoration of the current 30% service reduction to full service
beginning in the third quarter of FY21 in order to maintain social distancing.
FY21 Expenses were reviewed to consider the current situation. Specifically, staff
reduced expenditures to align with the reduced ridership forecast, including elimination of
a merit and cost of living allowance. Operational expenses did increase specifically to
address COVID-19 related expenses. Further, in consultation with Member Agencies, it
was decided that all new service, except for Saturday service on the Ventura line and the
San Bernardino Express Train, would be deferred. The Saturday service on the Ventura
line would not start until April ‘21. Adjustments to reflect these reviews and decisions were
made to the expense and revenue amounts.
The FY21 Proposed Operating Budget as shown in Attachment A reflects Revenue of
$43.5M, Expense of $260.5M, a Member Agency Subsidy of $146.4M, and CARES Act
funding of $70.6M
The reduction in FY21 Operating Revenue as compared to the FY20 Adopted Budget is
$61.9M. This reduction is entirely caused by the reduced ridership because of COVID-
19.
Total Proposed FY21 Operating Expenses are $260.5M or $2.4M lower than the FY20
Adopted Budget, or a decrease of 0.9%.
The FY21 Proposed Operating Budget by Category as compared to the FY20 Adopted
Budget is shown in Attachment A. A summary including the Pre-Covid Budget is shown

The Proposed FY21 Operating Budget by Member Agency is shown in Attachment C.
Expense increases from the FY20 Budget occur only where year-to-date actuals through
May 2020 were found to exceed budgeted amounts, and/or where actual quotes show
increases (as in the case of the insurance premiums), or additional spending is required
to accommodate the new activities required by COVID-19.
The Member Agency subsidy requested covers approximately two thirds of the required
funding. Amounts in whole dollars are as shown below:

The Federal CARES Act provides funding to transit agencies to help, prevent, prepare
for, and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Authority is eligible to receive a share
of the allocation of these funds through the Member Agencies. The Member Agencies
have provided the Authority with the following allocations:

Cares Act Amounts 56,432 $ 64,633 $ 33,619 $ 40,246 $ 32,054 $ 226,984 $
As shown on Attachment C, the CARES Act funding will be used to cover approximately
one third of the required annual funding for FY21.
In considering the CARES Act funding, it must be recognized that ridership is not
expected to return to Pre-COVID levels until the third quarter of FY23. In addition, over
the next two years, the Agency is facing the expiration of the current contracts of four of
33

the five major vendors. New train operator services and signal and communication and
track maintenance mini-bundle contract awards during FY21 may include one-time
mobilization and de-mobilization costs. Consistent with mobilization approach in the past,
these costs are not included in the FY21 Proposed Budget. Funding for the mobilization
will be provided by CARES Act funding at the time of contract award, if needed.
The Authority is currently laboring under a severe shortage of working capital. Current
reserves at $25M provide for only three months of critical expenditures. Staff is also
recommending that$25M of CARES Act funding be set aside to increase our reserve to
six months of critical expenses.
There is absolutely no question that the availability of CARES Act funding will be critical
to providing required additional funding for the next several years.
CAPITAL PROGRAM BUDGET
The preliminary proposal for the FY21 Capital Program budget was introduced to the
Board at the March 27 Board meeting. In response to constraints because of COVID-19,
all New Capital projects were removed from the FY21 Capital Program budget.
Maintaining our equipment and infrastructure in a state of good repair is critical to safety.
The Rehabilitation Program has already been reduced to include only the most urgent
needs. With safety and security as the foundation of Metrolink, staff is recommending that
the FY21 Rehabilitation Program be adopted as presented here.
Metrolink’s Capital Program is made up of two parts: Rehabilitation and New Capital
projects. Rehabilitation projects address and maintain Metrolink assets in a state of good
repair and include projects from all asset categories, including track, structures, train
control systems, facilities, rolling stock, and non-revenue vehicles. New Capital projects
consist of new initiatives to enhance or expand Metrolink’s service. This report includes
a brief discussion on the Southern California Optimized Rail Expansion (SCORE)
Program but does not include figures in the budgetary forecasts for FY21, since that
program is separately funded through third party grants.
In 2018, staff created the Metrolink Rehabilitation Plan (MRP) as an outcome of the
federally-mandated Transit Asset Management (TAM) Plan and in response to requests
by Member Agencies and the Metrolink Board for a long-range (20 to 25-year) forecast
of the Authority’s State of Good Repair (SOGR) needs so that Member Agencies, and the
Authority could develop long-range financial programming to address critical SOGR
needs. The MRP is a detailed condition and age-based assessment of all Metrolink
assets. The initial MRP, presented to the Board in July 2018, detailed that Metrolink had
a backlog of SOGR needs totaling $443.5M and an annual on-going need of $84.8M.

Staff has used the MRP, Strategic Business Plan, and other Board-approved planning
documents as a basis for our annual request in this FY21 Budget request and Multi-Year
Forecast. On this basis, staff has provided projections of future investments needed for
SOGR on a programmatic basis, by asset class and by Member Agency. Staff has also
provided estimated cash flow information at a macro level (for Rehabilitation and New
Capital programs) to assist with multi-year planning and fiscal forecasting as requested
by Member Agencies.
Authority staff has provided scopes and definitions for all programmatic projects that are
recommended for funding in the annual Capital Program budget (Attachment E). This
information includes project estimates that serve as the basis of an estimated cash flow.
In developing the FY2020-21 budget, staff followed the MRP recommended 6-year
backlog drawdown strategy, as presented in the FY2019-20 budget development process
and programmed into the FY2020-21 forecast. The FY2020-21 initial budget was shared
with the MAAC during its February 6, 2020 meeting and in subsequent individual Member
Agency meetings. Discussions included how to fund the MRP identified backlog, and the
budgetary constraints facing the Member Agencies and Metrolink. Staff reviewed
comments and questions from the MAAC, then revised the FY2020-21 budget to further
prioritize and optimize the request, while deferring the drawdown of the MRP identified
backlog to future years.
The proposed FY2020-21 Capital Program budget request reflects an amount similar to
the FY2019-20 adopted budget but reduced from the multi-year forecasted budget
amount as proposed in FY2019-20 budget process. This proposed amount does not
address a drawdown of SOGR backlog as identified in the MRP due to the large funding
amounts required of Member Agencies. The revised FY2020-21 Capital Program
projects are prioritized and optimized to address the most pressing systemwide
rehabilitation needs. To address the funding levels required to drawdown the SOGR
backlog, the Authority will complete an in-depth analysis of potential funding alternatives
as part of the Authority’s Strategic Business Plan. Upon internal review and vetting, the
FY21 Capital Program proposed request is $54.3M as shown below:
Capital Program FY20/21
Tracks $17,398 Structures $6,301
Systems $11,225 Vehicles $5,290
Rolling Stock $10,691

The proposed Rehabilitation budget was revised after the presentation to the Board on
March 27, 2020. In discussions with the MAAC, RCTC and VCTC requested an
adjustment to increase their line specific Rehabilitation budgets for the Perris Valley and
Ventura Lines, respectively. Additionally, in response to budget constraints as a result of
the COVID-19 pandemic, the two New Capital projects, CMF Tail Tack and the
Specialized Maintenance Equipment (Phase 2), are to be deferred to future years. Due
to the adjusted Rehabilitation requests and the deferral of the New Capital projects, the
Capital Program budget amount has been revised from $75.7 and is now $54.3 million.
The forecast for Rehabilitation requests over the next five years is shown below (years
FY22 through FY25 include amounts to address the backlog):
Life of Project Basis Rehabilitation:
FY2020-21 $ 54.3M Request/Adopt

FY2023-24 $222.1M Forecast/Program
FY2024-25 $226.2M Forecast/Program
Completion of Rehabilitation projects are multi-year in nature. As such, the funding for
the FY21, FY22, FY23, FY24, and FY25 requests may be viewed as each having a four-
year funding commitment which would have the following estimated cashflow impact over
the subsequent fiscal year:

Capital Program projects are frequently multi-year endeavors. Unexpended project
balances are referred to as “Carryovers” because their uncompleted balance moves
forward to the following year. Projects authorized in prior years but “carried over” total

SCORE Program
In FY2020-21, the Agency will continue work on the SCORE Program as funded primarily
by the State of California. Major projects that will be undertaken in the upcoming year
include:
• Construction of the Orange County Interim Setout Track in Irvine;
• Construction of the Los Angeles Union Station Rail Yard Rehabilitation &
Modernization Project, which is a pre-cursor to the Link US Project;
• Commencement of the Final Design for SCORE Phase 1 Corridor Projects; and
• Construction of the Signal Respacing on the Olive Sub (CP Atwood to Orange),
Signal Respacing in South Orange County (CP Avery to Songs), Signal
Modifications from Burbank to LA, and Burbank Junction Speed Improvements.
Redlands Passenger Rail/Arrow Service
All capital costs related to Arrow service (including two new positions which are specified
in the Arrow Service Memorandum of Understanding approved by the Board on May 15,
2020) are included here and fully reimbursed by SBCTA. This increases the total
Authority FTE headcount from 283 to 285.
Arrow revenue service will not begin until FY22, and until that time all expenses are
assigned to capital as developmental.
Budget Impact
There is no budgetary impact as a result of this report. It is a request for Transmission of
the FY21 Budget to the Member Agencies for consideration.
The Capital Program Budget has been revised to remove all New Capital requests.
However, staff strongly recommends that no further cuts be made to the Capital Program
Budget, which now includes only Rehabilitation Projects. The Capital Budget was already
reduced by 50% from original calculations and recommendations in the MRP. With a
backlog of almost $500M, further cuts would create safety and reliability concerns.
Next Steps
Should the Board approve the recommendations, staff will transmit the request for
consideration and adoption to the Member Agencies by August 1, 2020. Upon adoption
by all Member Agencies, staff anticipates presenting the formal request for Adoption of
the FY21 Budget to the Metrolink Board at its September 25, 2020 meeting.

Scope of work for this project will include performance of hydrology analysis, design, and replacement of
one Railtop bridge based on the current condition of the structure. The bridge is indicated in the MRP, and
all Railtop bridges are considered backlog, per guidance on page 3-17, and split over 3 years from FY18-21;
the MRP also includes regular maintenance items that are not currently accounted for in the Maintenance
budgets. The structures chapter of the MRP includes bridges, culverts, and items that are Member Agency
capacities are not able to fund all of the backlog over the last 3 years, this request would address one
remaining Railtop Bridge at MP 28.86, the funds would also address Load Capacity updates on the San
Gabriel Subdivision, as required by the FRA in CFR Part 237, lastly, there are some major maintenance items
that are beyond what the Maintenance Contractor would be expected to complete at Bridge 16.73 due to a
Bridge Fire from a homeless encampment in Nov 2019, the bridge load capacity is decreased until the
repairs can be made.

Valley Sub Structures Rehabilitation addresses three major subcomponents to sufficiently rehabilitate aging
infrastructure and growing backlog:
- Bridges
- Culverts
- Tunnels
Scope of work for these projects will include design, environmental permitting, load rating updates in
accordance with FRA regulations, r/w grading near the limits of structures, and rehabilitation of three railtop
bridges based on the current condition of the structure. The MRP indicates the Railtop Bridges remaining on
the Valley Subdivision on Page 3-18. All Rail Top bridges were programmed over 3 years in the MRP due to
the safety concerns of the Structure, however, the Valley Subdivision has not received Structures Rehab
money in FY18, FY20 and received a minimal amount in FY19.

Relocate existing tail track on City of LA property to Metro Property and create an emergency
secondary access point to the CMF at CP Ormiston. 100% design submittal is scheduled for June
2020. The design phase of this project was funded in the FY19 budget. This project must move
forward in order to provide alternate access to the facility when the lease with the City of L.A.
expires and the existing tail track is removed from their property. The value engineering approach
reduced the estimated construction cost from $19.06M to it's current $10.58M, resulting in an
estimated savings of $8.5M from the original estimated construction costs.
