ADDITIONS/REVISIONS A revised memorandum on Agenda Item No. 6, "Productivity Improvement Program', was distributed to the Committee members. 6. PRODUCTIVITY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM Tanya Love; Program Manager, provided background information on the Commission's responsibilities as it relates to the Short Range Transit Plan process and the Productivity Improvement Program (PIP), which was approved by the Commission in 1998. The PIP was set up for transit operators to use as a tool in reviewing their services to make certain that they are in compliance with the State -mandated fare, box recovery ratio while providing cost effective transit services. She iterated that PIP established criteria and tasks were to monitor the performance of transit operators but not all of the criteria were fully implemented. Since the criteria and tasks were established a few years ago, staff met with the transit operators to determine if the program is still applicable. It was a consensus by the transit operators that the program still applies but needed minor adjustments. The PIP criteria and changes are presented to the Committee for review and reaffirmation. Once they are approved, the elements of the PIP will be implemented and the outcome will be presented to the Commission at least annually. Tanya Love continued and reviewed the PIP Process, including the three tasks: 1) Issuance of SRTP Instructions; 2) Review and Approval of SRTPs; and, 3) Quarterly Collection of Performance Information from Transit .Operators. She proceeded to review the eight performance indicators and the method for establishing performance targets that the transit operators use in developing SRTP services and their financial plan: 1) Operating cost per revenue hour increases no more than the CPI; 2) Fare box recovery ratio per ROTC policy and PUC requirements; 3) Subsidy per passenger — increases no more than the CPI; 4) Subsidy per passenger mile — increases no more than a CPI; 5) Subsidy per revenue hour — increases no more than the CPI; 6) Subsidy pee revenue mile — increases no more than the CPI; 7), Passengers per revenue hour — percentage increase consistent with population growth or national average,. whichever is greater; and, 8) Passengers per revenue mile — percentage increase consistent with population growth or national average, whichever is greater. Jon Winningham, RTA Board Member, indicated that the RTA has met with RCTC staff to review the Productivity Improvement Program and the proposed revisions. Transit Policy Committee Minutes March 21, 2005 Page 3 *M/S/C (HENDERSON/KELLY) that the Commission: 1) Review and reaffirm the Productivity Improvement Program (PIP); and, 2) Revise the PIP to include Ridership and Passenger Miles per Revenue Car Mile as performance indicators for the Commuter Rail Program. *Note: The recommendation will be forwarded to the Commission as a recommendation for the `Committee as a Whole' ADJOURNMENT There being no other items to be discussed by the Transit Policy Committee, Chair Moore adjourned the meeting at 2:26 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Naty Kopenhaver Clerk of the Board RIVERSIDE: COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION TRANSIT POLICY COMMITTEE January 6, 2005 Minutes 1 CALL TO ORDER Chairman Ameal Moore called the meeting to order at 11:16 a.m., on Thursday, -January 6, 2005 at the County of Riverside Administrative Center,. 5th Floor Conference Room, Riverside and at the video conference site at the County of Riverside District 4 Office, 73-710 Fred Waring Drive,` Suite 222, Palm Desert:' ROLL CALL Members Present Member Absent: Percy Byrd* Frank Hall Terry' Henderson Dick Kelly Roger Berg Jeff Miller Ameal Moore John Tavaglione Frank West Roy Wilson* Self introductions of Committee members and attendees followed. *Video conference site. 3.

Transit Policy Committee Minutes January 6, 2005 Page 2 6. STATUS REPORT ON TRANSIT POLICY COMMITTEE'S ACCOMPLISHMENTS Tanya Love, Program. Manager, -provided an overview on the creation of the Transit Policy Committee and also provided a status report of the Committee's accomplishments and remaining tasks. She stated that a performance audit is required of the Riverside County Transportation Commission every three years. The result of the last performance audit recommended to: ' 1) Create a vision of transit service for Riverside County; and, 2) Establish a transit subcommittee to provide policy direction. The recommendations were presented to the Commission at their meeting on May 6, 2004 and they determined to form a Transit Policy Committee. The Committee was directed to: 1) Monitor transit implementation; 2) Review performance of operators; 3) Bring regional perspective to transit; and, 4) Guide the preparation of a transit vision. Recommendations of the Committee were to be presented the Commission for action. At the May 6, 2004 Commission meeting, staff presented policy issues that need to be addressed. She identified the policy issues and informed the Committee on the status of each of the issues to date: 1) Route Productivity — Staff and transit operators have met and discussed whether the program adopted in 1999 was .still effective or are there other ways to approach productivity. All agreed that this was: the bestapproach to take; however, one key element that was not implemented was to look at cost effectiveness to be tied to cost price . index. Staff and the transit. operators are currently looking at this and it is expected that this item .will be presented to the Committee at their next meeting. 2) Reserves - This item looks at what the transit operators have to do in those times when they need additional revenues. Would they be able to access general fund revenues, force to cut services .or the Commission loan from street and road funds? Discussions with transit operators are currently in the process. 3) Funds Allocated, Unclaimed — This item; relates to funds that were not spent by the transit operators. The Committee determined that from a go forward basis that any funds that remain on the books will be used towards next year's operating cost. 4) State Mandated Farebox Recovery Ratio — Thepolicyhas been developed. It is being used by the auditors and the transit operators have indicated that it is a helpful tool. r Transit Policy Committee Minutes January 6, 2005 Page 3 5► Accrual of Interest on Allocated, Unclaimed Funds — This has been resolved as funds allocated to and are used by the transit operators would hopefully result in no growing balance on hand, it was determined that the accrued interest will be placed in the main pot of funds to be available to all transit operators, and not just be available to a single operator. Commissioner Percy Byrd asked the process in which the funds would be distributed and Tanya Love said that for this fiscal year, it was projected that about $64 million TDA funds would be available. Funds for audits, administration, planning and programming, SCAG and SB 821 Bicycle and Pedestrian Program are taken off the top. The, remaining funds are distributed to the three apportionment areas - Western Riverside (78% transit operator, 22% commuter rail), Coachella Valley, and Palo Verde Valley. Using as an example, if $12.5 million is available for the Coachella Valley area and SunLine Transit Agency submits a Short Range Transit Plan that only requires $12 million, the remaining funds would stay on the books for Coachella Valley. If another operator is in place in Coachella Valley, they could apply for the funds. 6) Timeliness of Spending Allocated Capital Funds - Several of the funds have a shelf life of four years (year of allocation plus three years). If they are not used, 'there is the danger of losing the funds. At a previous Committee meeting, the transit operators provided a timeline of capital funds allocated to them would be used. It was determined that operators provide a status report to the Commission on a quarterly basis. Through the TEA process, this would be monitored. In addition, staff is working with Federal Transit Administration staff to develop and "go forward" policy which is modeled after the AB 1012 "use it or lose it" policy. Staff expects to have the policy submitted to the Committee by the end of the fiscal year. 7) Allocation of 2009 Measure "A" Funds: Western Riverside — This policy issue has not yet been addressed. Eric Haley, Executive Director, suggested that this policy be addressed two years prior to the revenues come in. It will take several months to develop a staff generated scenario and negotiate what the proper balance might be and he proposed starting the process within 18 months. Tanya Love continued and said that the Short Range Transit Plan kick off meeting is scheduled for January 21, 2005. Two topics that will be discussed are route productivity and timeliness of spending capital funds. M/S/C (Miller/Tavaglione) to receive and file the status report on Transit Policy Committee's accomplishments. Transit Policy Committee Minutes January 6, 2005 Page 4 7. RESERVE POLICY FOR LOCAL TRANSPORTATION FUNDS Tanya Love stated that meetings were held with the local transit operators and a consensus was reached that: a) Ten (10%) percent reserve should be established for unforeseen cost increases; b) Reserves should be restricted to maintaining .current service levels in the event of a revenue shortfall or unforeseen emergency; c) Reserves should not be for service enhancement; and, d) Each operator should have its own reserve fund. Commissioner Terry Henderson expressed her appreciation for the amount of time and effort by Commission and transit operator staff, and the cooperation by all in developing the policy. M/S/C (Tavaglione/Henderson) to: 11 Establish a transit operators' reserve policy of 10% for Coachella Valley and Palo Verde VaOey apportionment areas; 2) Establish a transit operators' reserve policy of 10% for each of the transit operators (public bus and commuter rail) in the Western Riverside County apportionment area; 3) Revise the Funding Disbursement Policy so that 100% of the operating funds are allocated and disbursed with two -tenths of the disbursed over the next 11 months; and, 41 Forward to the Commission for final action. 8. • ADJOURNMENT There being no other items to be discussed by the Transit Policy, Committee, Chair Moore adjourned the meeting at 12:20 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Naty Kopenhaver Clerk of the Board AGENDA ITEM 6 • " RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: July 18, 2005 TO: Transit Policy Committee FROM: Naty Kopenhaver, Clerk of the Commission SUBJECT: Election of Officers STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Transit Policy Committee to hold an election of officers  Chair and Vice Chair  with the term of office from July 2005 through June 2006. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The election of officers for the full Commission and its Committees are held on an annual basis. Commissioners Ameal Moore and Percy Byrd were elected as the Committee's officers last July. As everyone is aware, Vice Chair Percy Byrd has decided to move out of the area and, consequently, has given up his seat as a member of the Indian Wells City Council and as the City's regular member to the Riverside County Transportation Commission. Chair Robin Lowe has appointed Commissioner Jeff Stone to replace Commissioner Byrd. This item is to request that the Committee elect its Chair and Vice Chair for FY 2005-06 fiscal year. Agenda Item 6 1 AGENDA ITEM. 7 RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: July 18, 2005 TO: Transit Policy Committee FROM: Tanya Love, Program Manager THROUGH: Cathy Bechtel, Division Head, Planning SUBJECT: Ridership, Operating Cost, Farebox, and Capital Project Analysis: Riverside County Transit Operators STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Committee to: 1) Receive the Ridership, Operating Cost, Farebox, and Capital Project Analysis for Riverside County Transit Operators as an informational item; and, 2) Forward to the Commission for final review. BACKGROUNDINFORMATION: At the June 27," 2005 Plans and Programs Committee meeting; staff provided' an overview of FY 2000-01 through FY 2005-06 ridership trends (Attachment 1) together with a request for FY 2005-06 allocation of operating and capital funds for transit services in Riverside County. As a result of that meeting, staff was directed to prioritize analysis and discussion of the disparity between ridership and operating costs at the July 18, 2005 Transit Policy Committee (TPC) for further discussion. Since that time, Commission staff has been working closely with the transit operators in reviewing the various data elements presented in this staff report. It should be noted that the data presented was provided to RCTC through the quarterly transit operators' ridership reports, Short Range Transit Plans (SRTP) as well as the transit operators' financial audits. What is significant about the analysis is that the data from the various sources covering six fiscal' years has been . compiled .for analysis. As the Transportation Planning Agency (TPA), the Commission is responsible for allocation of transit funds, and by statute; is required to annually identify and recommend potential productivity improvements for transit operators through the SRTP process. As previously reported in the Commission's Triennial Performance Audit, operating costs for transit services increased between 26% and 110% Agenda Item 7 2 during FY 2000-01 through FY 2002-03. The audit further identified that several operators are not meeting the state mandated:farebox recovery ratio. As shown on Attachment 1, the increase in operating costs continuedto escalate in FY 2003-04 and is projected to continue to increase through FY 2005-06. The Commission as well as the transit operators will undergo another Triennial Performance Audit in FY 2006-07 covering FY 2003-04 through FY 2005-06. At that time, a full analysis of operating costs and farebox recovery ratios can be undertaken using audited financial information.

In comparison, costs for the same time period, is ,projected to increase, :between 6.10% and 50.57%. All transit operators have been encouraged to attend the TPC meeting to discuss costs and ridership, trends specific to their agency. While some costs, such as fuel and insurance; may be beyond: an operators' control, staff is concerned that requests for operating and capital allocations are exceeding available projected revenue. Revenue Compared to Operating Costs In FY 2004-05, ,public bus operators requested approximately $1,640,000 (4%) in funding over the $44,005,908 in Transportation Development Act (TDA) funds projected to be available. The 4% overage was allocated from prior year unallocated carryover funds. As shown on the following chart, for FY 2005-06, both the; Western County and Coachella Valley bus operators are requesting more TDA funds: than, projected to be available: Transportation Development Act Funds Western County Coachella Valley Palo Verde Valley Bus Rail Local Transportation Funds $ 32,299,034 $ 9,109,984 $ 11,052,096 $ 869,898 State Transit Assistance 2,041,713 575,868 698,471 54,947 (STA) Funds (99313) STA Funds (99314) 168,911 183,989 166,829 976 Total: FY 2005/06 TDA 34,509,658 9,869,841 11,917,396 925,821 Funds Projected to be Available: Total: TDA Funds 35,738,284 7,117,850' 16,076,058 817,265 Requested: Difference: $ (1,228,626) $ 2,751,991 $ (4,158,662) $ 108,556 Agenda Item 7 4 As in FY 2004-05, the overage was allocated from prior year carryover funds. Historically, there have been excess TDA funds available at year-end. However, with escalating operating costs, staff continues to be concerned that eventually, the positive year-end fund balances will be spent. Additionally, if the economy should take a down -ward turn, the situation may be accelerated. The Commission has a fiduciary responsibility to ensure that the transit operators are utilizing funds efficiently and effectively. Public Utilities Code (PUC)Section 99244 requires the Commission to annually identify, analyze and recommend potential productivity improvements for transit operators through the SRTP process. This process requires the transit operators to address recommendations made through the Triennial Performance Audit process as well as compliance with' State PUC requirements for farebox recovery compliance and cost efficiency. Due to continued escalatingoperatingcosts; Commission staff has been working on revising the Productivity Improvement Program (PIP) which was adopted in 1998 to assist with compliance requirements. It is anticipated that staff will seek reaffirmation of the PIP at the September 2005 Commission -meeting. The PIP, once fully implemented, will establish objective criteria for assessing productivity improvement opportunities including cost efficiencies: Farebox Compliance As previously reported, several of our transit operators are not meeting the State- mandated farebox recovery ratios. Staff continues to monitor farebox ratios and will provide a status report at the TPC meeting on actual farebox recovery ratios compared to state -mandated targets. Capital Projects As previously reported; ` transit operators have capital projects that have been funded;' however, many of the capital line items have unspent fund balances. The following chart is provided as an overview, by agency, of open capital projects for FY 1996-1997 through FY 2002-2003 (as of September 2004).

Any change in project completion dates, extending the project's timeline, that may negatively impact the grant funding, will be submitted to the TPC and/or Commission for further review and consideration. At this time, Commission staff believes the transit operators are on target to complete the capital projects by the December 2006 date as no request for time extensions have been received. However, as part of the analysis, Commission staff reviewed the transit operators' financial audit reports to determine the amount of funds claimed compared to fund allocation. Allocations are made based on the operator's SRTP and Commission policy is that the transit operator will spend capital funds soon after receipt. As the following chart indicates, funds allocated are not being spent in a timely manner: 30,000,0 Summary of Federal Funding Apportioments, Allocations and Dollars Claimed ;20,000,000 ;10,000,000 ��1 r FY 1999/2000 FY 2000/01 (Actual) FY 2001/02 (Actual) FY 2002/03 (Actual) FY 2003/04 (Actual) FY 2004/05 (Projected) FY 2005/06 (Projected) �Apportioned $12,206,361 $12,691,922$13,656,745 $16,898,248 $22,137,245 $20,023,627 $18,662,887 it Allocation $12,808,946 $13,216,576 $18,486,732$16,074,741 $27 232 749 $22,919,436 $16,075,978 CI Claimed $7,111,761 $8,166,334 $16,736,250 $22,535,646 $12,340,040 $- $- � Apportioned is Allocation Q' Claimed 'The Cities of Banning and Beaumont do not receive federal funding. Capital projects were funded from TDA and/or local funds. Agenda Item 7 Claiming allocated funds in a timely manner will became even more critical should we experience a downward trend in transit revenue.
