Eric DeHate, Transit Manager, introduced Mary Jo Ramirez, Care-A-Van Transit, to present the Care-A-Van Transit agency to the committee. Mary Jo Ramirez presented a brief overview of the Care-A-Van Transit agency. John Chavez asked how individuals get approved to use Care-A-Van? Ms. Ramirez replied they need to be seniors or disabled, they call the dispatcher and determination is made there. Everyone fills out an application. The number is readily available online, on our vehicles, brochures. Chair Sanchez added the city of Menifee is promoting the availability of Care-A-Van to its citizens and doing presentations at local HOA meetings and senior citizen centers. John Krick asked how far in advance appointments need to be made? Ms. Ramirez discussed the various ways appointments can be planned and scheduled. Lisa Castilone applauded the program. She asked about vehicle acquisition and if electric vehicles were in the future? Ms. Ramirez responded the vehicles are purchase with 5310 grant funding available through Caltrans. Mr. DeHate discussed the visibility of some of the programs. RCTC has the specialized transit brochure and the programs are listed on the RCTC website. RCTC sends out brochures to various senior and community centers in the county to try to help spread the word about the specialized transit available to the public. He also discussed the vehicles being looked at for specialized transit. Ms. Castilone asked if there is a marketing and outreach budget associated with specialized transit. Mr. DeHate commented the individual transit agencies do their own outreach and do not have to provide their outreach budgets to RCTC when applying for Measure A funding.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The 2009 Measure A Expenditure Plan allocates approximately 11.6 percent of the annual revenues from the 2009 Measure A Western County program to public transit. The public transit allocation is then distributed among five programs, namely: specialized transit services, specialized transit-consolidated transportation service agency operations, commuter rail, intercity bus, and commuter services. The Measure A Specialized Transit Program receives about 1.9 percent of the 2009 Measure A Western County program revenues, or a 16.4 percent share of the 11.6 percent for public transit. The program provides funding to benefit older adults, persons with disabilities, and/or those that are most vulnerable and truly needy in Western County. In Western County, this funding has been distributed through a competitive process to a wide array of non-profit and community organizations that serve these constituencies for specialized transit services for persons with disabilities and older adults. The goals of the Measure A Specialized Transit Program for western Riverside County are to: • Support directly operated services that expand or extend existing services, which, if not funded by Measure A funds, would leave an area and/or special population without alternate service options; • Support existing services that offer an improved level of service coordination with the existing transportation network; • Expand new services that leverage other revenue sources, can be administered in a cost- effective manner, and will not require long-term support from Measure A funding; and • Support new and expansion of existing services including transportation for veterans and shuttles including, but not limited to, nutrition and medical services. Projects that are eligible under the program include operating and capital projects such as senior transportation shuttles, non-emergency medical transportation services, bus pass/voucher 4 Agenda Item 6 programs, mileage reimbursement programs, travel training, vehicle and maintenance equipment, communications and dispatch equipment, and mobility management. Providing funding to non-profit providers of transit services for persons with disabilities, low income, and senior citizens has long been a priority of the Commission. The voter-approved 1989 and 2009 Measure A Expenditure Plans specify funding allocations for the provision of this type of service provided by transit operators and non-profit agencies. A Call for Projects is held triennially, and the last Call for Projects was held in spring 2021 for funding for Fiscal Years (FY) 2021/22 – 2023/24. The Commission awarded $9,101,257 to 16 agencies for 19 operational and capital projects, as summarized in Attachment 1. As part of the Specialized Transit program each cycle, RCTC creates a brochure and distributes it countywide (Attachment 4). As part of the distribution, brochures are sent to Measure A award recipients, senior centers, libraries, Community Centers, Cities, colleges, and Riverside County bus operators. For this cycle, RCTC distributed approximately 12,000 brochures. This includes 6,000 in English and 6,000 in Spanish. DISCUSSION: The CSTAC plays an important role in strengthening the public and specialized transit network by offering a platform for specialized transit providers to share information and promote various transportation services. Staff has invited Measure A recipients to provide presentations to the CSTAC to highlight their programs and projects and receive any input on how their services can be improved and expanded in the future. Two presentations will be provided. The first is from the City of Norco (Attachment 2) and the second is from U.S. Vets (Attachment 3). The City of Norco’s specialized transit program has been in place for the past 20 years. In FY 2021/22, the City of Norco supported 1,520 one-way passenger trips. The cost for this program in FY 2021/22 was $77,096. U.S. Vets has provided transportation services in the Inland Empire since 2003. In FY 2021/22, U.S. Vets provided 1,006 one-way passenger trips with approximately 200 new passengers. The cost of this program in FY 2021/22 was $53,628.
