CALL TO ORDER. The meeting of the Budget and Finance Committee was called to order by Commissioner Jack van Haaster at 12:30 p.m. at the Riverside County Transportation Commission Conference Room, 3560 University Avenue, Riverside. Members Present Will Kleindienst Jack van Haaster Jim Venable 2. APPROVAL OF MINUTES. M/S/C (Kliendienst/Venable) to approve the minutes of the January 14, 1998 Budget and Finance Committee meeting. 3. PUBLIC COMMENTS. There were no public comments at this time. 4. ADDITIONS/REVISIONS. There were no additions or revisions to the agenda. 5. ADMINISTRATIVE/FINANCIAL ITEMS. 5A. Video and Audio Conferencing Equipment Naty Kopenhaver presented the proposal to purchase video and audio conferencing equipment for the conference room. She explained that as of January 1, 1998, legislation took effect that allows participation at public meetings by audio/video teleconference. At the February meeting, the Commission adopted Resolution No. 98- 01, the resolution governs the use of audio and video conferencing equipment at RCTC meetings. Staff worked with Ken Lobec of Coachella Valley Association of Governments, Bob Spilsbury of GTE (County of Riverside vendor), and Jim Boatwright, County of Riverside, to determine a proposal for audio and video conferencing equipment for the Commission. Based on the conference room layout, the Concorde 4500 system unit is proposed. It includes three power microphones, two monitors (one facing the conference table and one facing the audience), a power camera that can either be programmed for voice activation or using the look -at -me feature. It was determined that the look -at -me feature, rather than the voice -activated feature, would work best for the Commission because of the number of participants at its meetings and the resulting background noise. The voice -activated equipment functions by sound and the camera tends to focus in the direction of where the sounds are coming from. This feature could be difficult to manage with a large number of participants and audience attending the meetings. However, in those instances when the voice - activated feature is selected, the two cameras can be used to to focus on more than one participant. The Look -at -me feature can also be used to provide more control on the focal point of the two cameras. With the two options, staff could determine the best option to use. Commissioner Venable questioned how many staff members and Commissioners would utilize this video/audio conferencing capability. Commissioner Kleindienst said that -hg Page 2 Minutes - Budget/Finance Committee March 4, 1998 would utilize it, especially with the travel time involved in getting to this meeting and the amount of time it normally lasts. Commissioner Kleindienst asked about the "bridging" capability of this system so that more than one person would be able to utilize it at a time. Ms. Kopenhaver replied that at this time "bridging" is done by GTE and the cost is over 5100,000. Chairman van Haaster said that this request is possibly premature because as the technology becomes more readily available the costs will decrease. There are other facilities that can be used if the capability is needed and tele-conferencing is still an option. M/S/C (Venable/van Haaster) oppose the purchase of the Concorde 4500 audio and video conference equipment, including installation and maintenance for one year at $73,955.10. Commissioner Kleindienst voted no. 5B. Bi-Annual Measure A Sales Tax Projections M/S/C (Venable/Kliendienst) approve contracting with Ernst & Young to complete the 1998 Measure A sales tax projects in an amount not to exceed $45,000. 5C. FY98 Revised Budget M/S/C (van HaasterNenable) approve the revised budget for fiscal year 1997/98. 5D.

M/S/C (Venable/Kleindienst) to authorize SCAG and CE-CERT to resubmit the joint application, and provide a commitment of $80,000 LTF planning funds as a cash match, if the MSRC approves the proposal. Chairman van Haaster questioned the need to have legal counsel present at the Budget and Finance Committee meetings. Staff explained that this was the preference of the former Executive Director and allows legal counsel to be present if there are any Brown Act issues or any other miscellaneous legal questions. This issue can be discussed with the new Executive Director once he comes on board. 7. ADJOURNMENT. There being no further business for consideration by the Budget and Finance Committee, the meeting was adjourned at 1:20 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Natye-----6- pehk ver Clerk of the Commission 003006 " AGENDA ITEM 5A • " " " " RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: April 1, 1998 TO: Budget and Finance Committee FROM: Paul Blackwelder, Deputy Executive Director SUBJECT: Environmentally Sensitive Corridor Planning Process At the September 10, 1997 Commission meeting, a presentation was made by Commissioner Tom Mullen, Mark Pisano the Executive Director of SCAG, and Pete Dangermond of Dangermond & Associates regarding a proposed process to environmentally clear future transportation corridors in Western Riverside County. The process proposed has been coined the Community & Environmental Approval Process (CETAP). Staff was directed to bring back an item for Commission consideration regarding funding such a process. The Western Riverside County Area faces a critical transportation problem. The area lacks the regional transportation infrastructure necessary to: support economic development; protect existing environmentally sensitive habitats and; provide access to recreation opportunities into the 21't Century. There is limited funding to handle the sensitive nature of the Riverside's environmental demand for prudent methods of development that will address these concerns. Mark Pisano indicated the growth in population in the Western Riverside County Area and San Bernardino over the next 20 years will exceed 2,000,000 people with a projected increase in available jobs of only 800,000. Therefore, the percentage of commuters making one hour plus trips to neighboring Orange and L.A. Counties will double and triple over the next 20 years. The present transportation system within the region does not have sufficient capacity to handle the traffic movement necessary for the east/west commute. Pete Dangermond outlined the basic concepts to consider during a process to obtain approval of a plan that would provide a solution to transportation needs of the future while maintaining sensitivity to environmentally sensitive areas. The process would have to consider different modes such as freeways, light rail, heavy rail, special truck lanes, special truck/train relationships, parkways, arterials, etc. The environmental consequences of each alternative would be carefully evaluated during the process, and all stakeholders and interested parties would have to be included in order to obtain approval of the corridors and alternatives. Staff recommends that the Commission should move forward toward developing a plan to address the future corridor needs of Western Riverside County through a process which identifies acceptable improvements to existing corridors as well as new 000007 corridors to be developed. In addition, sensitive environmental areas should be identified for future preservation efforts. If agreement can be obtained for the necessary corridor improvements and habitat preservation in a combined process, the time necessary to obtain all of the necessary approvals could be greatly reduced. A further advantage of having necessary corridor improvements identified and cleared, at least to a Tier I level of approval, would be that it would greatly assist future efforts to‘obtainfunding for the needed improvements. Proceeding with this planning study at this time will allow us to coordinate this study with general plan updates of the County and Cities that are impacted, and the development of an Expenditure Plan for extending the local sales tax for transportation programs. Once the corridors and habitat areas have been identified and agreed upon, the impacted general plans will need to be updated to incorporate the appropriate land use and arterial feeder systems. The actual details of the cost and schedule of such an undertaking is unknown at this time. Staff recommends that a scoping effort be authorized by the Commission. Funding for the scoping effort could be obtained by redirecting TDA Planning funding currently remaining from the recently completed Corona By Pass study. Funding for the actual study could come from a combination of several sources including the 2% planning money established by SB45. Staff would propose working with Dangermond & Associates to prepare the scoping documents for this effort since they have been at the forefront of this effort to move the CETAP process forward. In addition, Bechtel can make Mike Davis, the previous Environmental Manager for RCTC, available to assist in the scoping effort. His services, through June 1998, can be covered under the current Bechtel Agreement with RCTC. Financial Assessment Project Cost Initial cost $25,000 for Dangermond & Associates Bechtel contract costs can be addressed within the current contract limits.

It was also approved to set aside 10% of the funds off the top for allocation on an incentive award basis. In FY 1998, $241,852 was set aside for this incentive award and the Commission was advised that the transit operators would be convened to develop a proposal on how to award the bonus this year. The operators met on March 16 and they are recommending that this 10% bonus money be thrown back into the pot and allocated on the population formula basis as is done with the balance of the discretionary STA funds. This would make $184,436 available to the Western County area (which would be further divided 80/20 between bus and rail per Commission policy), $53,356 available in the Coachella Valley, and $4,060 in the Palo Verde Valley. They also are recommending that no 10% bonus be set aside for FY 1999; they would prefer that the full discretionary pot be allocated on the population basis so that they can more appropriately plan for the use of the funds in FY 1999.

Wall 183 was recommended to be constructed with Phase I since funding was available. • OOCU18 The remaining walls required the acquisition of approximately sixty (60) temporary construction easements and construction could not begin until all of the temporary construction easements have been obtained. Acquisition of the 60 temporary construction easements have progressed ahead of schedule. The 13 remaining temporary construction easements have been recommended to be obtained through the eminent domain process. The eminent domain acquisition process for the 13 remaining temporary construction easements is discussed as a separate item on this agenda. At the January 14, 1998 meeting of RCTC, the Commission authorized staff to advertise for receipt of construction bids for the Phase I Sound Wall Project. The current due date for all bids to be received by RCTC is March 31, 1998. Pending the finalization of all temporary construction easements required for the project, the bids will be opened on March 31, 1998, reviewed, and evaluated prior to the April 8, 1998 Commission meeting. Staff will make its recommendation of the lowest responsive bidder to the Commission, for its approval, at the April 8, 1998 Commission meeting. This project will takeapproximately 8 months to construct after notice to proceed. Financial Assessment Project Cost $4,600,000 (53,000,000 + 5850,000 + 5750,000) Construction and landscaping costs for Phase 1 walls + Wall 183 from Phase II Source of Funds Measure "A" Included in Fiscal Year Budget Y • Year Included in Program Budget Y Year Programmed Approved Allocation Year of Allocation Budget Adjustment Required N Financial Impact Not Applicable BUDGET/FINANCE COMMITTEE AND STAFF RECOMMENDATION: That the Commission award a construction contract for the project to the lowest responsive bidder. Staff's recommendation of the lowest responsive bidder will be presented to the Commission at the April 8, 1998 meeting. 000019 " AGENDA ITEM 7B " " " RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: April 1, 1998 TO: Budget and Finance Committee FROM: Bill Hughes, Bechtel Project Manager THROUGH: Paul Blackwelder, Deputy Executive Director SUBJECT: Approval to Advertise a Request for Proposal (RFP) to Provide Support for Construction Support Services Related to Landscaping Projects on State Route 91 and Yuma Drive Interchange. Several major landscaping projects will soon be under construction that will require construction management services by RCTC. These projects include the State Route 91 Noise Walls and the Yuma Drive Interchange. The majority of the construction management oversight will be provided by Bechtel. However, based on recent Caltrans requirements, the State will require that the landscaping construction contracts have a landscape architect available to oversee critical components of the landscaping installation. Staff is therefore recommending that RCTC select a firm that can provide the on -call landscape architect to full fill these requirements in a similar fashion as RCTC selected firms to provide material testing and surveying services to support the construction management activities. A request for proposals (RFP) will be prepared and distributed to all interested firms. A selection panel will be formed to review the proposals received. The panel will be composed of members from Caltrans, the City of Riverside, RCTC and Bechtel. After the top ranked firm has been identified based on qualifications, RCTC Staff will negotiate the scope of work to be performed with the selected firm. The results of the selection panel and the scoping negotiations will be brought back for Commission for review and approval. 000020 Financial Assessment Project Cost To be determined from RFP and selection panel scoping negotiations Source of Funds • Measure A - funded from the $15.98 million currently designated for the Phase II Noise wall project on SR 91 between Magnolia to Mary Streets and funds allocated for the Yuma Drive interchange Included in Fiscal Year Budget Y Year Included in Program Budget Y Year Programmed 2000 Approved Allocation Year of Allocation Budget Adjustment Required n Financial Impact Not Applicable STAFF RECOMMENDATION: That the Commission direct Staff to advertise and select a qualified firm to provide Landscaping On -Call services to support the construction management activities related to the construction of landscaping for the State Route 91 Noise Walls and the Yuma Drive Interchange. Following the selection process, Staff will negotiate a cost for the scope of services with the selected firm to deliver the required PS&E package. The results of the selection process, scope of services and cost to perform the work will be brought back to the Commission for review and approval. • • 000021 AGENDA ITEM 7C • " RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: April 1, 1998 TO: Budget and Finance Committee 4 FROM: Bill Hughes, Bechtel Project Manager THROUGH: Paul Blackwelder, Deputy Executive Director SUBJECT: Completion of the State Route 79 Realignment Study through the Cities of Hemet and San Jacinto. At the January 8, 1997 RCTC meeting, the Commission approved an expenditure of $75,000 to perform a route realignment study for the Cities of Hemet and San Jacinto. CH2MHiIl was selected to perform the study. The study is now complete and a final report is available. The table of contents of the report, as well as, a map depicting the study area are attached .for your information. The 250 + page report with fold out maps is available to the public for $30 plus an additional $5 for shipping if required. Three public meetings were advertised and held during the project study. Two at the beginning were held at the City of Hemet and at the Winchester Home Owners Association. The final presentation was held at the San Jacinto City Council meeting. The project team included representatives from Caltrans, the City of Hemet, the City of San Jacinto, Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, County of Riverside, and RCTC. The proposed cross section is shown as Figure 3 (attached) and is 134 feet which will provide for an initial 4 lanes (two in each direction) with a 5 foot inside shoulder and 10 foot outside shoulder. The study recommends that an additional 25 foot future set back be provided through the development process. Various alternatives were evaluated throughout the study area shown in the attached map. After eliminating the alternatives that were not deemed to be feasible, the study focused on three primary alternatives in the south portion of the study area through the City of Hemet and three alternatives in the north portion of the study area through the City of San Jacinto. The estimated costs for the proposed realignments are summarized below: 000022 Summary of Costs for SR 79 realignment ($ Millions) Location Lowest Cost (at grade separation used where possible) Ultimate (includes all proposed grade separations) Hemet Area $41 - $57 $70 - $85 San Jacinto Area $19 - $27 $37 -$53 The next stage of project development would be to perform a Project Study Report or a combined Project Study Report and Project Report. If the Project Report is undertaken, the environmental clearance could be obtained at the same time. A portion of this process could be combined with the Community & Environmental Transportation Approval Process (CETAP) process discussed separately in this agenda, or it could move forward as a stand -a -lone process. Funding for the next phase of studies could come from various sources including a Federal demonstration project included in the next authorization of ISTEA or the 2% planning money included with SB 45. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: 1. Receive and file State Route 79 Realignment Study. 2. Direct Staff to study funding alternatives for the Project Study Report, Project Report, and environmental clearance studies. • • • 00Co:3 " Final State Route 79 Realignment Study Report " Prepared for Riverside County Transportation Authority In Cooperation with Caltrans District 8 County of Riverside City of San Jacinto City of Hemet JANUARY 1998 CH2MHILL 3 Hutton Centre, Suite 200 Santa Ana, CA 92707 SCO/973580001.DOC/t 000024 Contents 1.0 Introduction 2.0 Background 3.0 Need and Purpose Figure 1- Location Map Figure 2 - Vicinity Map 5 3.1 Analysis of Traffic Conditions — Existing 6 Table 1 Existing Conditions, Daily Level of Service Summary 7 3.2 Analysis of Traffic Condition — Future 7 Table 2 Year 2001 Conditions Daily Level of Service Summary 8 Table 3 Operating Levels and Deficiencies (no build) 8 Table 4 Improvements Necessary to Attain the Route Concept 8 3.3 Accident Analysis 1 2 3 4 9 Table 5 Actual and Expected Accident Rates 9 4.0 Alternatives 9 Alternative A-0: No Build . 10 Alternative "A" (South Segment) 10 Alternative "B" (South Segment) 11 Alternative "C" (South Segment) 11 Alternative "D" (South Segment) 12 Alternative "E" (North Segment) 12 Alternative "F" (North Segment) 13 Alternative "G" (North Segment) 14 Alternative "H" (North Segment) 14 SCO/973580001.DOC/1 O1J 0 2. 5 " " Contents, Continued Cost Summary of Alternatives 15 Figure 3 - Typical Cross Section .... 16 Table 6 Cost Summary of Proposed Alternatives  Ultimate Build Out Condition 17 " Table 7 Cost Summary of Proposed Alternatives (Interim Condition) 18 Table 8 Cost Summary of Proposed Interchanges/Bridges Only 19 5.0 Environmental Constraints ... 20 Biological Resources 20 Floodplain Involvement 23 Hazardous Waste 24 Socioeconomic Impacts 24 6.0 Funding 25 7.0 Schedule 25 Exhibits: Alternatives "A" to "H" Appendix I: Public Meeting Minutes Appendix II: Detailed Quantities and Construction Cost Appendix III: Comments Received from Reviewing Agencies Caltrans County of Riverside City of Hemet City of San Jacinto Winchester Homeowners Association SR79 RPT.doc 000 026 Contents, Continued Metropolitan Water District of Southern California Osborne Development Corporation Lewis Lohr Westra Family Trust • • • SR79_RPT.doc ui 000027 0 - O 0 ALESSANDRO BLVD. 1- to Y 0 La La PERRIS NUEVO RD. a' NEWPORT R0. ap1�RO� CYN.

AGENDA ITEM 8A " " RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: April 1, 1998 TO: Budget & Finance Committee FROM: Bill Hughes, Bechtel Project Manager Karl Sauer, Bechtel Resident Engineer THROUGH: Paul Blackwelder, Deputy Executive Director SUBJECT: Award Amendment No. 2 to F.R. Harris Agreement RO-9731. At the October 9, 1996 meeting, the Commission awarded a contract to F.R. Harris for an amount of $258,732 to perform Phase I design work to construct a new platform, station track, and pedestrian over crossing across the tracks from the existing Riverside Metrolink Downtown Station adjacent to the BN&SF south main line. At the March 12, 1997 meeting, the Commission awarded Amendment No. 1 to. F.R. Harris for an amount of $426,268 to prepare the final bid documents (plans, specifications and estimates) to construct a new platform, station track, and pedestrian over crossing across the tracks from the existing Riverside Metrolink Downtown Station adjacent to the BN&SF south main line. The existing extra work of $86,268 (unused) was maintained. No new extra work was added to the contract by Amendment No.1. The final bid documents have been completed, the project was advertised for construction bids, the Commission awarded a construction contract to the lowest responsive bidder, Kiewit Pacific Co., and a Notice to proceed was given with the first day of construction commencing on January 12, 1998. The project is scheduled to be complete with construction by the middle of October, 1998. The following Extra Work Requests were submitted by F.R. Harris, and authorized, during this time period: 000048 F.R. HARRIS EXTRA WORK REQUEST SUMMARY (RO-9731) No. DATE DESCRIPTION AMOUNT 1 06/09/97 Surveillance System Design $23,867 2 08/26/97 Inspection of Sante Fe Depot $4,800 3 08/29/97 Design of Restroom for Guards $4,080 4 09/11/97 Provide Copies of Bid Drawings and Spec's $3,425 5 10/14/97 Provide Bid Evaluation and Const Support $30,000 6 10/20/97 Provide Support for City Joint Use Agreement $3,805 TOTAL • $69,977 The design of this project was very time consuming because of the large amount of interagency coordination and approval requirements. The project design had to be reviewed and approved by BN&SF, SCRRA, and the City of Riverside Public Works, Electrical, and Water Departments. F.R. Harris had to spend an enormous amount of time and resources to gain approval of the final project plans from all agencies involved. On February 27, 1998, F.R. Harris informed staff, by letter, that it had overran its authorized budget by $31,246.24 in the process of completing the final plan approval. Staff was aware that the effort to gain approval of the project plans was taking more effort than was previously assumed, but F.R. Harris did not notify staff of the amount of the additional cost overrun until F.R. Harris requested compensation after the extra work was completed. F.R. Harris is requesting compensation in the amount of $25,640.00 for the additional plan check services, provided for the project, and submitted to RCTC for payment. F.R. Harris is willing to absorb the additional $5,606.24, of the $31,246.24, that has not been submitted to RCTC for payment and F.R. Harris will also forgo its 10% fee on any additional work RCTC requests for the project. Staff has reviewed the scope of work involved with the overrun, and the respective costs involved, and concurs that F.R. Harris did the work and the cost for the overrun services are in line for the work involved. • • The first months of construction have been very busy and have required a greater construction support effort by F.R. Harris than previously anticipated. F.R. Harris is the designer of record and as such must be involved with the review and response of a majority of the construction submittals and requests for information that are submitted by the contractor. The original budget for F.R. Harris to provide • construction support services is $30,000.00. After the first three months of construction, approximately 23% of the work effort by F.R. Harris has been completed but approximately 60% of their budget has been spent. Staff and F.R. Harris are in agreement with the work effort and cost to date. Staff has worked with ► 3049 F.R. Harris and is in agreement with the remaining scope of construction support services and respective costs required of F.R. Harris to support the remaining work required to complete construction of the project. Staff is requesting that the current F.R. Harris construction support budget of $30,000 be increased by $50,000 for a total construction support budget not to exceed $80,000. Currently, construction inspection services for the project are being provided by Bechtel, the County of Riverside, and-Ninyo & Moore. The construction of the project also requires speciality inspection of Electrical/Mechanical/Security Systems/CCTV installation. The F.R. Harris design team included local subconsultants that could readily provide the special inspection services required. Staff requested that F.R. Harris estimate the cost involved in providing the additional construction inspection services identified above. Staff estimates that these services will not exceed $20,000.

F.R. Harris is willing to absorb the additional $5,606.24, of the $31,246.24 overrun, that has not been submitted to RCTC for payment and F.R. Harris will also forgo its 10% fee on any additional work RCTC requests for the project. (2) Increase the current F.R. Harris construction support budget of $30,000 by $50,000 for a total construction support budget not to exceed $80,000. (3) Amend the F.R.
