DATE:

FROM:
Naty Kopenhaver, Office Services Manager
SUBJECT:
Video and Audio Conferencing Equipment
At the February meeting, the Commission adopted Resolution No. 98-01, the
regulations governing the use of audio and video conferencing equipment at RCTC
meetings.
Staff worked with Ken Lobec - Coachella Valley Association of Governments, Bob
Spilsbury - Riverside County's vendor, and County of Riverside's General Services
Agency 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 with a look -at -me
feature. The monitor is able to show the participants at four sites. 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. The
voice -activated equipment functions by sound and the camera tends to focus in the
direction of where the sounds are coming from and would be difficult to manage
especially with a large number of participants sitting at the conference table and
audience attending the meetings. The Concorde 4500 system unit, including
installation and maintenance, totals $73,955.10.
Having an audio and video conferencing equipment at RCTC office would provide
another option for Commissioners and staff to participate at meetings located outside
its facility as well as for Commissioners from the mid -valley and Coachella Valley area
take part in meetings if they do not have sufficient time to drive to Riverside to attend
meetings. There were two Special Meetings set up within a 24 -hour period over the
last two months and the Commission located its meetings at the County of Riverside
Board of Supervisors' Conference and the Coachella Valley members were able to
participate at the meetings through the use of the County's audio and video
conference system.
Attached is the price list proposed by GTE as well as the room layout for the audio
and video conference system unit.

AGENDA ITEM 5B
RIVERSIDE
COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
March 4, 1998
TO:
Budget and Finance Committee
FROM:
W. Dean Martin, Chief Financial Officer
SUBJECT:
Bi-Annual Measure A Sales Tax Projections
The backbone of the Measure A program are the revenues generated by the sales tax.
Those revenues must be continually monitored and updated to ensure that the
Commission's decisions on strategic direction are based on the most current data
available. In fact, the Commission has established a policy that requires bi-annual
update to those projections. The last projection was performed in February 1996 and
was the basis for the Measure A revenue estimate found in the Measure A Vision and
Strategy Issue Paper adopted by the Commission in September 1996.
The Commission is currently reviewing its list of project priorities in light of the
expanded responsibilities enabled by SB45. Additionally, both the Commission's
management and financial auditors are recommending that the strategic plan of the
Commission be reviewed and revised as needed. These two factors are added
reasons for performing a review of our projections.
In the past the Commission has contracted out the completion of those projections.
Ernst & Young performed the February projection and our results to date have been
consistent with those projections. Since the model used by E & Y appears to have
reasonably predicted the level of sales tax revenues, staff recommends that we
contract with E & Y to complete the 1998 Measure A sales tax projections in an
amount not to exceed $45,000.

Notes to the FY98 Revised Budget
REVENUES AND OTHER SOURCES OF FUNDING
Sales Tax Revenues. With an expanding economy, Riverside County is experiencing strong
growth in taxable sales. Through December 1997 sales tax revenues had increased 9.1% over the
prior year quarter. With that reality, the estimate for 1998 has been adjusted upward from
$59.541,000 to $60,782,6017 with the assumption that the second half of the year will perform at
least as well as the first six months.
TDA Transit Allocation. Expected revenues have been slightly reduced to reflect the actual final
numbers for the Commission's share of the Metrolink annual operating budget. The original
budgeted amount of $4,274,794 was preliminary pending final adoption of the SCRRA 1998
budget.
Other Reimbursements. The budget has been nearly reduced by half due principally to project
delays. The constnlction of the southside platform at the Downtown Riverside Station will
continue into fiscal year I999. The delays are attributable to inclement weather and further
examination and study of initial construction bids which exceeded original engineer's estimates.
Approximately half($3.5 million) of the reimbursement revenues from state rail bonds have been
removed and will be rebudgeted for 1999.
CMAQ(Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality) funding for improvements to the San Jacinto
Branch line in the amount of $I,765,000 have been removed. Negotiation with Santa Fe for the
purchase of the freight use rights is ongoing. A portion of these funds will be rebudgeted in the
1999 budget.
Construction of soundwalls along Route 60 has been delayed pending approval of funding by
Caltrans. Ultimate management of construction of the project has not yet been determined.
Given these uncertainties reimbursement revenues in the amount of $1,875.000 have been
removed from the budget.
Other revenue. Track improvements for the southside platform(Downtown Riverside Station)
will be completed by Santa Fe. It was originally assumed in the budget that the Commission
would pay for the needed improvements and then bill Union Pacific. However, it has been
determined that Santa Fe will complete the improvements and directly bill Union Pacific. The
budget amount has therefore been reduced by $I.5 million.
Debt proceeds. The debt proceeds retired the Commission's outstanding commercial paper
notes. The increase in the budgeted amount reflects the actual proceeds from the August 97
issue. The amount is higher than the original budget due to a last minute loan request from the
City of Temecula.
000021
EXPENDITURES
Personnel salary and fringe_ The reduction of $107,869 assumes that positions which currently
are unfilled(Assistant Director of Legislation and Programming and Secretary II) will not be filled
in time for the currem budget year.
Capital Outlay. New call box in fills totaling $140,000 have been included in the revised budget.
The new call boxes will be added along State Route 177, Highway 111 and State Route 79.
The remaining increase is to cover updates to the Commission's computer system and to purchase
video teleconferencing equipment.
Projects General. The Bechtel contract has been increased to reflect construction management
services for the southside platform at the Downtown Riverside Station and the work for CVAG
on the Project Study Reports for the 1-10 interchanges.
Highway/Rail Engineering. Design of La Sierra/West Corona over crossings was budgeted at
$500,000 and has now been reduced to S257,000 based on definitive design estimate. Actual
design for the southside platform was budgeted at $548,000 for FY98. Design was accelurated in
the prior year reducing the amount required to complete in FY98 to $275,000.
Van Buren interchange design of $500,000 has been deleted from the budget as it now appears
the project will not proceed until the 1999 fiscal year. Ethanac corridor study for $500,000 has
been deleted based on Commission action to not move forward with this project.
Additions include $317,000 for various design projects along Route 111 expected to be
completed in 1997, but are now scheduled for 1998. This amount will be funded with carryover
from the 1997 budget.
Highway/Rail Construction. A number of projects have been removed from the revised budget
as a result of timing delays. The southside platform, originally budgeted at $6.5 million for the
current year, has been reduced to $3.0 million, with the remaining amount deferred to the 1999
budget. San Jacinto track improvements for $1.8 million has been indefinitely postponed as
negotiations with Santa Fe proceed. Soundwalls along Route 60 are not currently anticipated to
be completed in fiscal 1998 resulting in a budget reduction of $1.8 million. These reductions have
been partially offset by increasing the construction budget for the Date Palm Drive street scope
project along Route 111 in Cathedral City -from just under $1.0 million to approximately $3.2
million.
Construction of soundwalls along Route 91 has been reduced by $1.5 million and will be carried
over to the 1999 fiscal year.
Revised budget reflects payment of $900,000 to the City of Riverside for the Eastridge
interchange, a commitment the Commission approved in the very early stages of Measure A.
Monterey construction in the City Palm Desert in the amount of $942,000 has been carried over
000022
from the 1997 budget.
The Commission is paying a claim settlement for Route 86 in the amount of $545,000. About
$300,000 had been set aside in contingency to cover this construction claim. The additional
amount is for prior engineering costs not previously billed by Caltrans.
Median barrier work on Route 79 was not completed in 1997 as planned. The project wa; put on
hold in order to resolve the fill slope repairs. The remaining cost of $187,000 has been carried
forward from the 1997 budget.
Highway/Rail ROW. Easements for soundwall construction along Route 91 were budgeted for
1997 but not completed. Most of those easement purchases are occurring in the current fiscal
year . The revised budget has been adjusted upward by $130,000 for those purchases. Right of
way purchases for the Cathedral City Date Palm Drive street scape have been added in the
amount of $1,155,000.
The purchase of the Atco Rubber property for the southside platform was originally budgeted in
1997 and has been carried over to 1998 in the amount of $270,000.
Right of way purchased for the Monroe to Rubidioux project has been moved from the 1997
budget to the 1998 revised budget in the amount of $250,000.
Final property settlements and right of way support services for Route 79 in the amount of
5280,000 has been carried over from the 1997 budget.
LTF Disbursements. The increase of 210% is principally attributable to budgeting the planning
disbursement for WRCOG in the amount of $190,000. The remaining $20,000 was an increase in
the CVAG allocation based on the final approved amount.
Regional Arterial. The increase represents unexpended amounts carried over from the 1997
budget_
Contingency. The contingency has been increased $351,000 to comply with the Commission's
policy to have at least a two percent(2%) contingency(based on total costs excluding operating
transfers). General fund contingencies were augmented by additional amounts to cover costs far
potential litigation and/or settlements.

City of Murrieta Request to Transfer Surface Transportation
Program Discretionary Funds
The City of Murrieta has requested to transfer Surface Transportation Program (STP)
discretionary and formula funds from previously programmed projects on Jefferson
Avenue to another programmed project on Murrieta Hot Springs Road. The project
on Jefferson Avenue will be expedited by the transfer of local funds off the Murrieta
Hot Springs Road project.
In December 1994, the Riverside County Transportation Commission approved the
following policy on substitution of STP discretionary funds:
"To allow the substitution of two projects in STP discretionary funding
categories or 20% of an agency's overall budget (whichever is larger) by fund
type. The substituting agency must provide written certification that the
substituted projects are of comparable value both financially and public benefit
wise with respect to the projects they are replacing. Agencies requesting
specific project substitution(s) must bring such requests before the Commission
for review, consideration and action."
This is the city's first request for reprogramming STP discretionary funds. Formula
funds are not subject to the substitution policy since each local agency has a set
amount of funds to program at their discretion. The City of Murrieta has provided
certification that the project on Jefferson Avenue is scheduled for construction (see
attached). The transfer of funds is consistent with staffs' encouragement of
implementing projects in a timely manner. It also stresses the importance of utilizing
federal funds for projects which must undergo federal processes, and freeing up local
projects from unnecessary federal requirements.
An administrative amendment to the Regional Transportation Improvement Program
(RTIP) will be necessary to reflect the above changes. This will take place in the next
administrative amendment.

Award of Contract to Engineering Resources for Completion of
Gene Autry Trail Plans, Specifications and Estimate (PS&E) for
State Route 111
At the September 13, 1995 RCTC meeting, the Commission awarded Amendment 2
to RO-9219 to NBS/Lowry to perform final design services for the Highway 111
project near Gene Autry Trail in the City of Palm Springs. The PS&E was submitted
for review to Caltrans when NBS/Lowry went out of business. As a result of the
design reviews performed by Caltrans, the City of Palm Springs, and the various
utilities, several design changes were required in order to complete the design
package to everyone's satisfaction.
Engineering Resources is a relatively new firm that is composed of many of the
previous employees of NBS/Lowry. When RCTC awarded Engineering Resources the
Park and Ride Lot on Pigeon Pass Road, Engineering Resources agreed to also attempt
to bring closure to the Gene Autry Trail PS&E package. At that time it was believed
that the scope of work was very small. Unfortunately, the number of comments on
the original design that was previously agreed by everyone continued to grow and the
cost to complete the project went beyond what Engineering Resources could absorb
in their overhead. At the present time Engineering Resources has spent $4,947.54
and up until now has not asked to be compensated by the Commission for its services
relating to the Gene Autry Trail project. Engineering Resources estimates that an
additional $6,581.98 will be required to address all of the outstanding changes that
will be required. This will bring the total amount to $11,529.52. The complete scope
of work for both work performed and work to be performed is attached in the Letter
of December 23, 1997 from Engineering Resources.
Note: RO-9219 with NBS/Lowry currently has extra work remaining in excess of
$20,000.

The Caltrans Right -of -Way Section has raised the issue of the State's right to maintain a facility
within an area to which it has no legal rights. I have discussed this issue at length with Scott Neff,
Caltrans Permit Engnecr, but I have no confidence in his suggested resolution.
I have suggested to Scott that the City Council could act on the offer of Lots "C" and "D" for
dedication as street right-of-way by way of a Council Resolution. This action would provide the
City with the right to construct and maintain roadway improvements within the 60 foot strip of land
shown as Lots "C" and "D"on Tract No. 14116.
Based on this discussion, Scott has suggested that a copy of the resolution be forwarded to him after
Council has acted and this will resolve this issue. However, what remains unclear to me is how this
will provide Caltrans with the documentation they require.
Therefore, the attached Scope of Services for completing the project assumes that we will be
preparing a legal description and plat map. This assumption will provide enough budget for any
involvement we might have in this issue whether resolution is a quitclaim deed, or consent to
common use agreement. It is my opinion, the City will end up quitclaiming the rights to a portion
of the existing right-of-way. The area impacted is defined by the existing back of curb and the back
of the proposed curb.
TRAFFIC SIGNAL PLANS
In their November 25, 1997 letter, Caltrans has requested numerous revisions to the current traffic
signal plan. The most troubling of these suggestions is the relocation of Pole E from its current
location on the south east corner of East Palm Canyon Drive and Gene Autry Trail. The relocation
is suggested because Caltrans believes the luminaires (safety lighting) will be in conflict with
existing the existing power lines along the south side of East Palm Canyon Drive.
A review of the construction drawings indicates relocation of Pole E will not improve the clearance
between the luminaires and the power lines. Currently, there is a luminaire in -place at this location
which has not resulted in any conflict or safety hazard to date. Further, the proposed luminaire is
approximately the same distance from the power lines as the existing luminaires
The most expedient resolution is to eliminate the proposed luminaire and the easterly cross walk
crossing East Palm Canyon Drive. However, this could result in operational difficulties with
pedestrians crossing from the north to south side of East Palm Canyon Drive.
The second more time consuming resolution is to locate the existing the existing power lines and
incorporate the necessary changes into the relocation of power poles in the south west quadrant of
093030

the intersection. SCE would first be contacted to determine the location of the existing conductors,
if there is enough clearance the issue is resolved. However, if there is not adequate clearance, the
vertical location could be altered during the previously mentioned relocation.
The final resolution of this issue is contingent upon further discussions with SCE personnel
regarding the existing vertical clearance and pending relocation or the City of Palm Springs'
willingness to eliminate the easterly crosswalk.
UTILITY COORDINATION
When this project was submitted to Caftans for the most recent review, I also sent plans to the
various utilities impacted by the project. In response, the Desert Water Agency has returned a
heavily redlined set of bluelines. In subsequent conversations with Woody Adams of DWA, he has
voiced strong concerns about this projects impact on their existing facilities.
DWA operates a 24 -inch and a 12 -inch waterline within the project limits. Items of work impacting
these facilities include rough grading the street core and parkway, storm drain installation,
installation of the parkway drain and mounding and sidewalk construction in the parkway.
The resolution of this issue seems to involve a complete review of the as -built drawings for DWA's
facilities and an equally complete comparison of the proposed construction to these as-builts. Once
this has been completed and the plans have been appropriately revised, if necessary, I will meet with
Woody to provide the assurances he requires that this project can be constructed without impacting
DWA's facilities or to clearly identify any relocations necessary and develop a plan for implementing
said relocations. Please note, because of the uncertainty surrounding any possible relocations, the
cost of developing construction drawings for waterline relocations are not included in the prices
quoted herewith.
Finally, for your review, I have prepared and enclosed the following exhibits:
• Exhibit "A" - Scope of Services, Services Completed Prior to December 19, 1997

Approval to Advertise a Request for Proposal (RFP) to develop
the Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) for the Phase II
Noise Walls on State Route 91.
At the April 1996 Commission meeting, the SR 91 noise walls that are required to
mitigate the SR91 HOV lanes between Magnolia and Mary Streets were broken into
two stages designated Phase I and Phase II. This action was taken to address
funding availability and to be consistent with priorities set by the City of Riverside
(see an attached letter from the City of Riverside dated April 1, 1996). At the January
1998 meeting, the Commission directed that the remainder of the Phase I walls be
advertised for bid. These construction bids will be brought back to the Commission
for review and award to the lowest responsive bidder at the April 8,1998 commission
meeting.
The Currently adopted Strategic Plan indicates the start of construction for the Phase
II Noise Walls to be in the year 2000. The Phase II noise walls project will also include
the construction of auxiliary lanes at various locations; the widening of under
crossings at Monroe Street, and Jefferson Street; and the replacement of the Jackson
Street overcrossing. The general scope of work that is required will be consistent
with the findings of the engineering study dated December 1995 regarding the noise
walls and auxiliary lanes that are required to be constructed to mitigate the HOV lanes
previously constructed and improve the operations of the freeway by adding the
necessary, auxiliary lanes. The completion of this project will complete the Measure
A designated project of adding up to two lanes in each direction between Magnolia
and Mary Streets. Because of the involvement of several structures, Staff feels that
it is prudent to begin the selection and design process now to assure that the PS&E
package will be completed in a timely fashion. At this time it is not anticipated that
new right-of-way will have to be purchased for this project. The following tables
indicate the scope of work to be included in the design package.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
That the Commission direct Staff to advertise and select a qualified firm to prepare
the Plans, Specifications and Estimate (PS&E) for the Phase II Noise Wall and
Auxiliary Lane Project between Magnolia and Mary Streets. 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. If Staff cannot negotiate an acceptable cost
for the scope of services with the top ranked firm, the next ranked firm will be
considered to provide the scope of services. The negotiation process will continue
until an acceptable cost for the defined scope of services is obtained. 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.

Riverside, CA 92501
SUBJECT: 91 FREEWAY SOUND WALLS AND AUXILIARY LANES
Dear Mr. Reagan:
On March 26, 1996, the Riverside City Council reviewed the plans prepared
by your agency for sound attenuation walls and auxiliary lanes along
segments of the Riverside 91 Freeway between Magnolia Avenue and Mary
Street. The City Council endorsed the proposed project substantially ae
described in the Sound Wall and Auxiliary Lane Study - December, 1995 with
some requested modifications. The City's detailed recommendations
regarding such issues as wall heights, locations, landscape treatment and
installation priorities are attached.
The City of Riverside appreciates the cooperation it has received from your
staff and consultant in keeping the City staff and Council Members informed
and involved in the planning of this project.
If any additional information or assistance is required, please contact Bob
Neese, Principal Planner, at 782-5383.

The following additional recommendations relate to aesthetic treatment
of proposed walls:
1. Wall heights should generally not exceed ten feet in overall height
(see above table for exceptions); height should be limited as much
as possible but have sufficient height to achieve a 5 d2A noise
reduction for adjoining area residents.
2. Walls adjoining Diana Avenue where it serves as a frontage road
should be located a minimum of 5 feet from the edge of the Diana
Avenue pavement and planted with an impenetrable landscape buffer.

AGENDA ITEM 6D
RIVERSIDE
COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
March 4, 1998
TO:
Budget and Finance Committee
FROM:
Ruthanne Taylor Berger, Director Transportation & Air Quality
Program for WRCOG
THROUGH:
Paul Blackwelder
SUBJECT:
Joint Application to the Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction
Review Committee (MSRC) for SR 91 High Occupancy Toll Lane
Feasibility/Air Quality Monitoring Demonstration
The Commission at its 23 June 1997 meeting authorized $80,000 from LTF for RCTC
to participate in a joint application (with SCAG, CE-CERT, OCTA, CPTC and Caltrans),
to the MSRC to analyze the feasibility of extending the SR 91 toll road east to the
junction of 1-15 and west in Orange County to the LA County line. Unfortunately, the
proposal did not make it to the South Coast Air Quality Management District by 5:00
p.m. on the due date and consequently it was not accepted. The MSRC has again
issued an RFP for Market -based Incentive projects. One of the categories is High
Occupancy Toll (HOT) lanes demonstration projects, with a cap of $250,000 per
project with a minimum 50% match.
Background: The 1988 voter approved Measure A plan called for two additional lanes
in each direction on SR 91 from just east of the I-15/SR91 Interchange to the Orange
County line. The Measure has constructed one lane in each direction as exclusive
HOV lanes. The current Measure A Strategic Plan funding program shows insufficient
funds to construct the other two lanes on SR 91. RCTC's initial policy objections to
toll roads has changed in the recent past due to the settlement with CPTC and a
shortfall in traditional funding sources of transportation revenue. The Commission
has expressed an interest in using toll options to add capacity to SR 91 and SR 71.
The proposal recommends a phased approach. Phase I would use the existing HOV
lanes and moveable barriers to create "zipper lanes" during the directional peak with
one exclusive HOV and the other a toll facility. The tolls would be applied to longer
term solutions for capacity enhancement to SR 91. It is anticipated that in the future
the directional peak will equalize and the zipper lane will have to revert to an
exclusive HOV lane. Phase 11 would be to use the projected toll revenue to build the
additional two lanes and operate them like the current orange county toll road or
apply the funds to an alternative solution.
A key component of any MSRC project is the ability to demonstrate emission
reductions. Our proposal is to use the CE-CERT comprehensive modal emissions
00J
4?
model to estimate emission impacts of hot lanes on SR 91. CE-CERT will use an
instrumented vehicle to drive the corridor at various speeds and times of day to
gather trip statistics that will be used to measure corridor performance.
This joint HOT lane feasibility project is the first step in the technical analysis that
could be used as the foundation to determine the potential of its application to
implement needed projects in the future.
