Period closing accrual adjustments are not included for revenues earned but not billed and expenditures incurred for goods and services received but not yet invoiced, as such adjustments are normally made during the year end closing activities. The operating statement shows the sales tax revenues through the third quarter at 61 % of the budget. This is a result of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board' (GASB) Statement No. 33.. GASB 33 requires sales tax revenue to be accrued in the period in which it is collected at the point of sale. The State Board of . Equalization collects the Measure A funds and remits them to 'the Commission after the reporting period for the businesses. This creates a two -month lag in the receipt of revenues by the Commission and related 'disbursements of local `streets and roads allocations. Accordingly, these financial statements reflect the Measure A sales tax revenues and related local streets and roads expenditures related to collections through January 2006. On a cash basis, the Measure. and Local Transportation Fund `(LTF) sales tax revenues are 16% and 15% higher respectively, than the same nine -month period last fiscal year: Federal, state and localgovernment reimbursements and other revenues are on a ;reimbursement basis, and the Commission will receive these revenues as the projects are completed and invoiced to the respective agencies.

AGENDA ITEM 7 RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION . DATE: , May 22, 2006 TO: Budget and Implementation Committee FROM: Bill Hughes, Bechtel Project Manager Karl Sauer, Bechtel Construction Manager THROUGH: Hideo Sugita, Deputy Executive Director SUBJECT: Funding Adjustment for the State Route 74 Widening Project Between 1-15 in Lake. Elsinore and 7`n Street in Perris STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Committee to: 1) Approve an increase of $1,807,233 to the project budget for the State Route (SR) 74 widening project between 1-15 in the city of Lake Elsinore (Lake 'Elsinore) and 7' Street in the city of Perris (Perris) from $76,446,874 to $78,254,107; and - 2) Forward to the Commission for final action. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The 1989 Measure A includes improvements to SR-74, 'between 1-15 in Lake Elsinore and 7' Street in Perris, , a length of .approximately 8.5 miles. The improvements realign curves and widen the existing two lance roadway to four lanes with 8 foot shoulders and a continuous 14 foot paved median. The project was split into two segments. Segment 1 is from 1-15 to Wasson Canyon Road. Segment 11 is from Wasson Canyon Road to Th Street in Perris. The project's estimated cost in the January 2000 RCTC Strategic Plan was $40.5 million. At the July 12, 2000 meeting, the Commission approved a revised budget of $51.3 million for the SR 74 1989 Measure A project. At that time the budget -was increased due to the additional cost to accelerate delivery and right-of-way costs related to environmental mitigation for the California gnatcatcher. 'Additionally, the cost to acquire required temporary construction easements was included in the overall project budget: At the May 8, 2002 meeting, the Commission approved a second budget revision which raised the estimated cost to complete the project to $69.8 million. That project cost increase was $18,515,666. The project increases were: primarily due to escalating right-of-way costs of $10,310,000; additional cost of design, construction management and roadway construction to meet Caltrans design standards of $7,050,609; and the inclusion of construction for the ` new Greenwald/Meadowbrook connection with SR-74for $1,155,057. At the September 14, 2005 meeting, the Commission approved a third budget revision which raised the estimated cost to complete the project to $76.45 million. That project cost increase was $6,599,219. Approximately one-half of the project increases' was again primarily due to escalating right of way costs, which included $273,000.,.for additional right-of-way acquisition administrative costs, $237;585 for Greenwald right-of-way acquisition costs, $1,800,000 to support settlement. of land acquisitions for the project, and an additional $1,500,000 for 'mitigation lands'..: . The remaining project increases were due to the increased 'material; labor and j equipment costs; due to;.various weather and utility relocation schedule delays. ; The SR-74 Segment II construction project is currently, scheduled to be completely open to; traffic and operational within ;the next couple of months. 'Staff Has continued to monitor the construction expenditures in comparison to the approved ._ project budget and at this time is, projecting that the construction expenditures to completion are projected to be in excess of ;the approved budget by approximately $1000,000. The projected' cost- increase is solely due to the continued escalation of the price. of materials, mainly the price per tonne for asphalt.: concrete.'' Since Hurricane Katrina,the price of asphalt has escalated from the, bid price of $40 per tonne to :a current negotiated' price of approximately $70 per tonne. The price of asphalt was a negotiated' price due to schedule impacts from., delayed utility relocations, and the rainy season during winter and spring of 2004to early 2005. , At this.,time, staff is recommending 'that. the :Commission approve,an increase to the total project, budget of $1,807,233, with $1,000,000, allocated for Segment II - construction and'.$807.,233 for' project contingency. This will increase the project budget from $76,446,874 to $.7.8,254,,107. The _Commission .previously has, entered into Agreement No. 03-31-045 with the Eastern Municipal,: Water'; District (ENIVVD) for the relocation of the EMWD,.water line as part of the construction of the. SR-74 Segment II highway widening project. Per the terms of the agreement, 'EMWD is to reimburse —the. Commission for the relocation of the EMWD water. line. Currently, the,,EMWD reimbursements are credited to the project in' the, WesternCounty Measure,A'Highway Fund. The total reimbursed -relocation costs are projected to be $1;'807,233.: " The combination of the EMWD reimbursements and the total project budget cost increase results in a net project budget of $76,446,874, representing a SO increase in the overall project.

This requires the City to provide written documentation on the 'bid value to the 'Commission and this authorization cannot exceed the total amount of Measure A funds approved for these projects in the Strategic Plan; and 3) Forward to the Commission for final action. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: There are three local circulation interchange improvement projects included in the 1989 Measure A program for the city of Riverside. The interchange projects are on State Route (SR) 91 and are located at La Sierra Avenue, Van Buren•'Boulevard, and Adams Street. The only Measure A funds expended to date related to the- east bound SR-91 off ramp and auxiliary lane at Van Buren Boulevard in the amount of $2.954 million. This results in a remaining commitment of $7.616 M of Measure A funds available to the Van Buren interchange improvement project. 14 The :Measure A funds approved for the projects are: Van Buren IC Expended to Date = Balance Available = La Sierra 1C Adams IC Total Remaining Available = $10.570 M ($ 2.954 M) . $ 7.616 M $15.460 M $1 1.758 M $34.834 M,.' Attached is a letter from the City requesting that the Commission consider defunding the ,Measure A commitment for the.

This will require the City to provide written documentation on the bid value to the Commission, and this authorization cannot exceed the total amount of Measure A funds approved for these projects in the Strategic Plan. If approved, and given the anticipated delivery timeframes for the projects, staff expects this action to be reflected in the FY 2007-08 Commission budget.

TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION 4080 Lemon Street, 3rd Floor P.O. Box 12008 Riverside, CA 92502-2208 Dear Mr. Haley: La Sierra and Van Buren Interchanges with State Route 91 As you may know, the City of Riverside is nearing completion of the construction plans for the La Sierra/State Route 91 interchange and the Environmental Assessment for the Van Buren/State Route 91 interchange will be released for public comment by March 2006. Due to the significant escalation in construction costs, both projects are now significantly underfimded and it is necessary for the City to develop a new funding strategy. I believe it is possible to fund both projects using the resources available in the Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee Program (TUMF) and the funds- outlined in the 1988 Strategic Plan for local interchanges within the City of Riverside. La Sierra/SR 91 Interchange In regards to the La Sierra/SR 91 interchange, the estimated construction cost, including. right of way and construction management, is now approximately $40 million. The City has secured $ .0.15 million in TUMF for the project and expects to increase the total TUMF funding to $16.675 million. The Commission hasalso previously budgeted approximately $7.6 million of the $15.26 million earmarked for the La Sierra interchange in the 1988. Strategic Plan forlocal interchanges. Assuming the Commission will be budgeting the remaining $7.66 million in the Strategic Plan, the project will have a funding shortfall of approximately $7.8 million. I anticipate that the La Sierra interchange project should be ready to advertise for construction bids no later than June 2006. All the necessary right of way will be in the City's possession by March and the 100 percent construction plans were submitted to Caltrans in early February. In September 2005, the City Council took action to confirm that the La Siena and Van Buren interchanges with SR/91 are the City's highest priorities and approved a recommendation to ask the Commission to utilize the entire $37.778 million earmarked in the 1988 Strategic Plan to fund these projects, if necessary. In my September 30, 2005 letter, I outlined the City Council action. 3900 Main Street " Riverside, CA 92522 " 951.826.5553 " www.riversideca.gerr7 75918 A.1.15.1 Consequently, the City is requesting that the Commission approve utilizing approximately $7.8 million of the $11.854 million reserved for the Adams Street interchange to complete the funding for the La Sierra/SR 91 interchange. Reconstruction of the State Route 91 interchange will complement a $14 million joint. effort by the City and County of Riverside to widen and fully improve La Sierra Avenue from SR 91 to El Sobrante Road.

The Commission's property management consultant, Epic Land Solutions, recommended that the remnant . parcels be disposed of in three phases. In September 2004, the Commission authorized the disposal of Phase 1 (map is attached), which resulted in the surplus of approximately 13 acres north of Alessandro Blvd. in the unincorporated area of the county of Riverside. This property is currently in escrow.

May 22, 2006 TO: Budget and Implementation Committee FROM: Michele Cisneros, Accounting and Human Resources Manager THROUGH: Theresia Trevino, Chief. Financial Officer SUBJECT: Proposed Budget Fiscal Year 2006/07 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Committee to: 1) Receive input on the Proposed Fiscal Year (FY) 2006/07 budget; 2) Close the public hearing to receive input on the Proposed Budget for FY 2006/07 on June 14, 2006; 3). Adopt the proposed budget for FY2006/07; and 4) Forward to the Commission for final action. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The annual fiscal budget is the result of Commission staff determining the operating and capital needs for FY 2006/07 and identifying the resources to fund those needs. The budget process began in January 2006. The goals and objectives approved by the Commission on March 8, 2006 were the basis of this budget. The goals and objectives considered during the preparation of the budget relate to mobility initiatives, goods movement, improved system efficiency, environmental stewardship, economic development, intermodalism and accessibility, and public and agency communications. On May 10, 2006, staff presented the proposed budget to the Commission. Subsequent to that presentation, staff updated the document as a result of the following changes: • An increase of $21,100 in the Commission's contribution for dental and vision insurance, which replaces the dental/vision reimbursement plan. • A decrease in interest income of $500 is a result of the increase in fringe benefit expenditures. A public hearing to allow for public comment on the proposed budget, as revised, is required prior to the adoption of the proposed budget. The public hearing was opened at the May. 10, 2006 Commission meeting and will continue to the June 14, 2006 Commission meeting. After the public hearing is closed on June 14, 2006, adoption of the Proposed Budget for FY 2006/07 will follow. In accordance 50 with the Commission's' fiscal policies, the budget must be adopted no dater than !; June 15 of each year. Attached is the 'Proposed Budget for FY 2006/07.. This .document contains the executive summary; as revised, that was presented at the May 10, 2006 Commission meeting; the Gann Appropriation Limit; the guiding policies related to the preparation of the budget; a summary of the budget process; fund budgets; details : of program revenues and other sources, personnel costs, and {debt;. department budgets; a community profile; and appendices including a ;glossary of acronyms, funding definitions, and program/general terms.

Its > population is booming, doubling in size in the last 15 years and recently surpassing two million. The County's economy is seeing unprecedented levels of housing growth and value appreciation. Employers are also taking notice, and the area is becoming a leader in California in terms of recent job creation. It's an exciting and dynamic environment that combines a boom town economy in an area with significant natural appeal with mountains, deserts, unique: habitat areas, and natural beauty. Not surprisingly, this can lead to "a number of challenges. The impact of growth on transportation is =enormous,, and the 'Riverside County Transportation Commission (Commission) is workingto respond to the County's transportation needs while also protecting and safeguarding; the ,environment andquality of life for. area families. In doing so; the Commission is working to keep people moving at a similar pace ;of the :: . County's economy., Currently, highwayconstruction; is taking . place at a 'variety of locations throughout Riverside' County. '''• This includes the widening of State Route (SR) 74:near Perris and - Lake Elsinore, the reconstruction of the SR-60/SR-91/Interstate (I) 215 in downtown Riverside, the widening of 'SR-60 in Mira Loma, the widening of Highway 111 in Indio, and the construction of anew interchange at 1-15 and Cantu-Galleano. Rancho Road 'in the: northwestern,. portion' of the County. The upshot of these projects is better mobility for the County's residents and 'businesses as well as the creation of thousands of jobs " and economic opportunities All of this is taking place due to previous decisions by the: Commission and by every local jurisdiction in the County that includes the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and 24 separate. city .councils. The actions of the government bodies in the western Riverside: County (Western County) and Coachella Valley areas of the County have led to the establishment of transportation development fees to mitigate the; congestion impacts of new development in each of these areas. The establishment of 'successful, partnerships with other levels of; government: is especially important to the success of the Commission's mission. While the relationship with local jurisdictions has been effective, the need for having; the state of Califomia (State) as a funding partner continues to be an elusive goal. Fiscal Year (FY) 2005/06 marked one of the only times • that Proposition 42 was fully funded andimplemented; r. and the good news is that it will likely be implemented and funded:. in FY 2006/07. °. However, the State must continue to make; additional investments in transportation in a predictable manner, and 'a focus on goods movement -related "infrastructure would be. most helpful to 'Riverside County. During 2006 the Legislature and the Governor will ; " " " consider the approval of a comprehensive infrastructure bond; depending on the details of the proposal, the additional funding will be most welcome. Since the original approval in 1988 of Measure A which became effective July 1, 1989 (1989 Measure A), the local half -cent sales .tax has become the primary source of funding for new transportation projects in Riverside County. As funding from the federal and state governments remains uncertain and is even likely to decline, the local sales tax program becomes increasingly important. Voter action in November 2002 ensures the replacement of the 1989 Measure A program when it expires in 2009 with a new 30 year program (2009 Measure A). that will continue funding improvements until June 2039. Current Responsibilities During FY 2006/07, the Commission will spend $403,743,200 on a wide variety of projects and services. This funding level includes several high -profile projects, including the final design of the SR-60/I-215 East Junction high occupancy vehicle lanes connector, the Mid County Parkway .environmental study and right of way acquisition, SR-79 realignment study and right of way acquisition, transportation improvements .in the Coachella Valley, Perris Valley Line Metrolink extension project engineering and right of way . acquisition, strategic . partnership efforts, and parking improvements at commuter rail stations in Riverside and Corona. Additionally, the Commission will continue to fund Measure A efforts and programs that are constructed and offered by cities and local transit providers. The Commission's status is somewhat unique in Southem California. As many transportation agencies have consolidated functions and grown in size, the Commission remains true to the original intent of the state legislation that created it. We serve as the County's primary transportation planning and funding agency and have not taken on additional : responsibilities such as .operating transit services. As - a . result, the Commission maintains productive relationships with other agencies as part of its planning and funding role. For example Measure A pays for a. score of lesser -known projects that are extremely important to local residents. More than $58,318,300 will be returned to local cities and the County for local streets and roads needs. In addition to local tumback :funding, Measure A provides funding for many regional street and road projects, and funds the improvement of major arterial streets in the Coachella Valley_ The Commission also receives and programs funding from state and federal sources. This includes the state's Transportation Development Act programs that are allocated primarily to the County's major publictransit providers. Measure A also contributes to the public transit cause by funding transit fare discounts and transit programs for senior citizens and persons with disabilities:. Another Measure A effort is a .Commuter Assistance program that provides ridesharing assistance to employers and commuters. Looking Toward the Future; The focus of FY,2006/07 and for many years thereafter will be project delivery. While'` Riverside Countyis already the site of a number of large transportation projects; many; more are on -the' near -term horizon. A number of current planning efforts. will soon become construction "projects. This is especially true of the many Western County ` Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee funded projects that are currently in 'various '. phases of environmental clearance, planning; and right-of-way acquisition. This will also be true of goods movement projects such as the construction of railroad grade separations. that are necessary in a variety of locations in Riverside County. The;: passage of the federal transportation bill known as SAFETEA-LU'provides the County,` with $31 million in federal funding for grade separations. The Commission; has already, allocated the vast majority of these dollars, and projects will be ready to construct most specifically in Coachella, 'Riverside, and Banning. With continued participation from the state and federal government, even more projects like these can be delivered. Even more will be delivered with local funding as Measure A revenues 'continue to grow with', the ,,County's.booming economy.'-- During this fiscal year, the 'Commission will approve a: Measure A delivery plan that will outline Measure'A priorities for the next decade. The plan will include project priorities, and timelines that, will likely focus on several key freeway projects. ,`Ideally, the efficiency of this effort will be enhanced with changes in state law that will allow design build contracting and partnerships with the.', private "sector.

Riverside County continues to experience significant growth due to population increase, available and affordable housing, and a wider base in its economic engine. After taking these economic factors and the state 'of the local economy into consideration, staff has projected a 6% increase in Measure A sales tax revenues compared to the prior year budget. On behalf of the County, the Commission administers the LTF and receives allocations for administration, planning, and programming in addition to funding for rail operations included in the Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP). This LTF sales tax revenue is budgeted to decrease by 11.9% based on the initial LTF sales tax revenue projections, which are adjusted at mid -year based on actual receipts. The budgeted LTF sales tax revenue is sufficient for Commission administration, planning and programming, and rail operations. The majority of LTF funding received by the County and available for allocation is distributed to all transit operators in the County; however, it is not included in this budget as it is an unbudgeted special revenue fund. Intergovernmental revenues are expected to decrease 43.3% compared to the prior year budget; however, only 16.1 % of the prior year budget amount is projected to be realized as revenue in FY 2005/06 as a result of specific capital project activities. The decrease is primarily related to federal reimbursements for the final design of the State Route (SR) 91 High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes in Riverside, as this project did not reach the final design stage in FY 2005/06. For FY 2006/07, federal sources will partially fund rail capital projects including the Perris Valley Line, Perris multimodal facility, and North Main Corona station parking structure and highway capital projects including the SR-79 realignment study, SR-60 East Junction to Interstate (I) 215 HOV lane connector, and Corona/I-15 Cajalco interchange TUMF regional arterial project. State funds will reimburse a portion of the costs on the North Main Corona station parking structure. As a result of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)-with the Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG), the Commission will receive 48.1% of TUMF through June 30, 2009, and, in accordance with the 2009 Measure A, thereafter at 100%, after deduction of an administrative fee, up to an aggregate of $400 million. TUMF represents fees assessed on new residential and commercial development in Western County. FY 2006/07 TUMF 63 fees are expected to decrease 8.3% compared to the FY 2005/06 budgeted revenue based on a softening of the housing market. Other revenue consists of miscellaneous revenues and is projected to increase 4.3% from the prior year's budget. Investment income is anticipated to increase 129.2% in FY 2006/07 as a, result of higher cash and investment balances due to. increased sales tax revenues, the issuance of commercial paper, and continued higher yields on investments'. Staff continues to actively manage its resources and make appropriate investments to maximize the return to the Commission without sacrificing security and affecting short-term cash requirements.

The Proposition created Article XIIIB of the State Constitution, placing limits on the amount of revenue that can be spent by public agencies from the "proceeds of taxes." In 1980, the State Legislature added Section 7910 to the Government. Code, providing that the governing body of each local jurisdiction must establish, by resolution, an appropriations limit for the following year., The appropriation limit for any fiscal year is equal to the previous year's limit adjusted for population . changes and changes in the California per capita income. The Commission is subject to the requirements' 'of Article XIIIB: Gann` appropriation limits are calculated for and applied to the Commission. In accordance with the requirements of Article XIIIB implementing legislation, the Board of Commissioners approved Resolution No. 06-007 on June 14, 2006, establishing appropriations limits for the Commission at $265,455,468. The FY 2006/07 budget appropriated $163,699,900 in taxes for the Commission, falling well within the limits set by the Gann Initiative. Based on historic trends and future projections, it appears the Commission's use of the proceeds of taxes, as defined by Article XIIIB, will continue to fall well below the appropriations limit. .The projected gap between the Commission's projected "use of proceeds" and appropriation limit remains significant over the next decade. The resolution and calculation for the FY 2006/07 appropriation limit are on the following pages. 79 2006-2007 APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT 2005-2006 Appropriations Limit $244,036,843 2006-2007 adjustment: Change in California per capita income Change in Population, Riverside County. 5.16 `+. 100 :...:...... ..... 100 5.16 percent 3.44 percent 1.052 .3,44 + 100 = 1.034 100 ` 1' 052' x 1.034 = 1.087768 .$244,036,843, x 1.087768 = $265,455,468 2006-2007 Appropriations Limit .:...... $265455,468 Source: ' California per capita income - California Department of finance Population, Riverside;Co California Research.

" Balances in the bank operating account will be maintained at the amount necessary to meet monthly expenditures. " Idle funds will be invested per the Commission's established investment policy emphasizing in order of priority: 1) safety, 2) liquidity, and 3) yield. " Cash disbursements to local jurisdictions and vendors/consultants will be completed in an expeditious and timely manner. Human Resources Management Policies " Commission staffing levels will be consistent with the intent of its enabling legislation, which envisioned a small, but effective staff. " ' Consultants will be used to augment staff efforts as much as possible to support programs or work loads, which do not appear to be of a permanent nature. 87 Information Technology Policies Significant effort will be made to maintain efficient and cost-effective technology' infrastructure by continuously upgrading network equipment 'and software to ensure performance, productivity, and connectivity among staff, other agencies, and the public. Network security will continue to be a top priority to'maintain the. integrity of the Commission's network and information. " " SECTION 2�� BUDGET PROCESS SUMMARY 89 Budget Process Summary The budget is the primary performance tool used to measure and control accountability, of public agencies for taxpayer dollars. Thebudgetcommunicates to all stakeholders (i.e., elected officials, regional agencies, and citizens) how the investment they, made will be put to', use by providing detailed information on thespecifics of resource allocation and expenditures. Progress is monitored on a monthly basis, and revisions' and updates are made as deemed necessary to reflect changing dynamics and accommodating unplanned requests. This results in a budget document that is useful and meaningfulas a benchmark against which to evaluate government accomplishments and/or challenges and to assess compliance ' with fiscal accountability.

Annually ,a workshop is held for the policy makers to evaluate and determine where the Commission plans to be and what it desires to accomplish over the next -five to ten years. , Annual.: reviews allow for timely responsiveness to any significant g political;: legislative; ' oreconomic developments that may occur locally, statewide, or nationally. Staff then adjusts: its course based on the long-term strategic direction of the policy makers_ Staff convenes in early January to both assess actual results, compared; to: the current year budget, and map changes' in strategy for the ensuing fiscal year by reviewing; and, if necessary; redefining departmental mission statements ,and setting ;goals: Those goals, upon review by the Board, become the Commission's short-term .strategic: direction: 90 Resource Identification and Allocation Phase Simultaneous with the short-term strategic direction .phase, staff focuses on what funding sources are available and what monies areestimated as carryover from the current year. ' In actuality, resource identification occurs throughout the year, but it is finalized in the upcoming fiscal year budget. Amounts to be borrowed are. determined .as part of the 'long-term strategic planning process; but such amounts are adjusted in the annual budget to reflect more current information. Needs Assessment Phase Staff and consultants evaluate what projects and studies need to be ,accomplished. Project priority and sequencing set in the long-term strategic plan are the .top candidates for budget submission. However, priorities may have changed due to economic necessities or political realities, resulting in projects being rescheduled by acceleration or postponement. New projects may be added or existing priorities deleted 'based on Commission direction. Development and Review Phase Using all the data and information gathered from the previously mentioned stages, department heads submit their desired budgets to the finance Department. The information, along with staff and overhead allocations, is compiled into a preliminary or draft budget. After review by the Executive Director and inclusion of the desired changes, the draft budget is presented to the Board for input. Adoption and Implementation Phase The proposed budget is submitted to the Commission at its May meeting. A hearing is scheduled to allow for public comment on the proposed budget. The Commission may choose, after public hearing, to adopt the budget or to request additional information and/or changes to the budget. The budget must be adopted no later than June 15 of each year. if the need arises during the year, staff may transfer part or all of any budgeted balance within financial responsibility units by function. Control of the budget is maintained by distributing monthly status reports to department heads. Corrective action must be documented and submitted to the Finance Department for any significant budget variations. Commission approval is sought for any expenditure that will exceed those amounts allocated to each financial responsibility unit (e.g., Measure A) by broad classification (i.e., administration, programs, debt service, capital outlay, and other financing uses). 91 Budget Roles and Responsibilities Involvement in the: budget permeates all staffing levels at the Commissionfroni clerical suppoit staff to policy makers. Each program manager develops a detailed line item operating and ,capital budget. Those budgets by program are submitted ,to the department head for review and approval. The department heads submit their budgets to the Chief Financial Officer by mid -March. The Finance Department compiles the ' department budgets. Both the capital and operating budgets are combined- into the draft budget for the entire Commission. The Executive Director reviews the' entire budget for overall consistency with both the short and long-term strategic direction' of the : Commission, appropriateness of funding sources for the identified projects. and - .studies, and reasonableness of the operating budget expenditures, which. should also correspond to the capital: budget. 92 CHART 6 - FUNCTIONAL ORGANIZATION CHA• FY 2006/07 • Board of Commissioners Policy Committees Transit Plans & Programs Budget & Implementation Property • Advisory Committees Technical Advisory Citizens Advisory Legal Counsel Executive Management Executive Committee Regional Programs ?

Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available to meet current year obligations. Revenues are considered to be available when they are guaranteed as to receipt, based on expenditure of funds (i.e., government matching funds), or certain to be received within 180 days of the end of the fiscal year. Expenditures are generally recorded when a liability isincurred; however, debt service expenditures are recorded when the payment is due: Chart 8  Total Fund Expenditures and Transfers Out (Uses) Debt Service Fund 7% Capital Project Funds .20% . General Fund 4% Special Revenue Funds 69% Budget Authorization and Amendment Process The Commission authorizes expenditures according to administration, programs, capital outlay, and debt service as well as other financing uses. As long as management does not exceedbudgeted amounts in these broad classifications, it, may transfer amounts among individual line items according to function and between financial responsibility units defined as the General, Measure A, Motorist Assistance, STA, TUMF, Capital Projects, and Debt Service funds. Any other budget changes require the authorization of the Commission. The Commission may take action at any monthly meeting to amend the budget. Those amendments are incorporated into the budget as they occur and are reflected in the CAFR in the final budget amounts reported in the budgetary schedules. Fund Structure There are a total of 23 funds which account for the Commission's budgeted resources categorized into four governmental fund types: General fund, special revenue funds, capital projects funds, and Debt Service fund. There are six funds reported in the General fund and 14 in the special revenue funds. Two capital projects funds are used to account for capital project expenditures financed with short or long-term debt 97 proceeds. In addition, the „Commission has one Debt Service fund to account for debt related activity. Non -Budgeted Funds In addition .to the, 23 budgeted governmental funds, the. Commission has another. special, revenue fund and two fiduciary funds comprised of an agency fund 'and `a private -purpose trust fund. The Commission does not adopt budgets for these three funds. The monies in the special revenue fund are the Riverside County LTF administered by the 'Commission. These LTF monies are .monitored and controlledby means of an annual allocation process and by legal and statutory requirements. General Fund Overview' The General' fund of the Commission is used to account for all activities not legally ,. required or designated by Board action to be accounted for separately.'For many 'public agencies the General fund is .the largest fund. .The Commission's ,largest source is. Measure A, a locally ,levied sales tax which .legally, must be separately accounted for. The. General fund receives a portion of the Measure A, sales tax revenue for administration and operation of the Commission. The Commission's .commuter rail . operations, short-range transit, 'planning,`. fund programming, property management, clean fuel and air" and a portion administration are accounted :for in the General fund. The revenue sources for the 'General .fund are Measure A sales tax for administration, LTF sales tax, for administration and planning, LTF Article funds forr commuter rail transit operations and capital, user fees from licenses, state highway`ac'count (SB 45) funding for project planning, 'various ,other state and' federal reimbursements not accounted for in other funds, and investment income. ;i. ...

LTF sales tax revenues .fund administration, planning staff and studies, and transit , operations and capital for rail services. The changes compared to the prior year budget are for the following reasons: " Planning money is set by taw at three percent (3%) of estimated LTF sales tax revenues. .The FY 2005/06 revised budget includes the effect of. the mid -year projection adjustment. This adjustment usually includes the unapportioned carryover amount, which is not determined until after the fiscal year end. Transit funding is also tied to sales tax revenue growth. The allocation of funding to commuter rail and bus transit operators, however, is based on need. 99 Table 24 - General Fund Uses FY 2004 - 2007 'FY 03/04 FY 04/05 FY 05/06 FY 05/06 FY 06/07 %.Change (15 Change Actual Actual Revised Budget Projected.

The Commission's largest single expenditure is debt service. The Commission made a conscious decision to issue debt to complete projects in the earlier years of the 1989 Measure A. This . strategy brought quick relief to the transportation needs of Riverside County. • As a result, the Commission has four outstanding bond issues. Under the provisions of 1989 Measure A as amended by Ordinance No. 92-1 (Measure AA); the Commission has the authority to issue bonds subject to a bond debt limitation of $525,000,000. The bond agreements require the trustee to hold all bond proceeds and a portion of the sales tax revenues and to segregate all funds into separate amounts. These monies are includedin the restricted investments held by trustee in capital projects fund and the Debt Service fund. "A portion of the debt reserve requirement has `been satisfied with surety policies purchased from a major insurance company and held .by the trustee. Under the agreements, the Commission may use sales tax revenues for any lawful purpose related to the Riverside County Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) afterthe trustee has satisfied debt service requirements. Under the 2009 Measure A program, the Commission will have the authority to issue bonds subject to a debt limitation of $500,000,000.

More , than 78% of the electorate voted to impose a one-half of one cent sales tax over a 20- year period to pay for transportation improvements. Measure A requires that all sales taxes collected may only be used for transportation purposes including administration;. and the construction, capitat'acquisition, maintenance, and operation of streets, roads, , highways, including state highvvays and pyblic transit systems and for related purposes. These purposesinClude 'expenditures for planning, environmental reviews, engineering and design costs; and related right of way acquisition. The amount raised by this levy growing as the County and its economic base grow. Overall, the 1989 Measure A is ; expected to generate over $1.7 billion during its lifespan. ' OnNoverriber 5, 2002, the , voters of: Riverside County approved the renewal of Measure A thrOugh 2039. The 2009 MeasUre 'A is expectedito raise rnore than $4.6 billion during its lifespan. Local Transportation Fund: l_TF was established in state laW by ,the TDA and is funded through a one -quarter of one cent of the State's 7.25% sales tax.. The intent of the legislation was to provide' a dependable revenue stream for public transportation operations. - The vast majority of LTF revenue in the Corinty is allocated to the eight public transit operators, including the Commission for its share eMetrolink operations ' 0, costs. Much like Measure A revenue, LTF will grow with. the growth of the County and its economy. State .Transit Assistance: STA provides additional TDA state funding of transit operations for urban counties. The funding source is generated by sales taxes on gasoline and diesel fuels. These funds are allocated to the County's eight public transit operators. State Transportation Improvement Program: The STIP is funded through state and federal gas tax dollars and is Califomia's primary transportation fund. Dollars are allocated to each county based on a formula that takes into consideration population and highway centerline miles. Actual funding decisions for 75% of STIP dollars are made by local transportation agencies such as the Commission. Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ): The CMAQ program is federally ,funded and is targeted for transportation improvements in areas with air quality problems. This program pays for improvements that reduce congestion while improving air quality. The Commission has also used CMAQ dollars to include fuel and 'commuter assistance programs, signal interconnects; HOV lanes, and transit projects. Federal Transit Administration: On a reimbursement basis, the federal government provides funding for qualified capital investments in rail facilities, track, and vehicles. FTA funding is generally allocated annually by the federal government and is based on. calculated miles of service. Transportation Uniform. Mitigation Fee: In connection with the 2009 Measure A, the TUMF program was established in the Western County to provide additional funding for regional arterial projects. TUMF is administered by WRCOG. Per the 2009 Measure A', the Commission is to receive up to the first $400 ,million .in TUMF generated on, new residential and commercial development. As a result of an MOU with WRCOG, the Commission will receive 48.1 % of the :TUMF through June 30, 2009, when the original Measure A expires. Thereafter, the Commission will receive. 100%, after an administrative deduction, up to the aggregate of $400 million. Rail and Highway Licenses: The Commission owns parcelsofland and rail right of way in selected areas throughout the County. The ownership provides licensing opportunities for fiber-optic cable, advertising signs, and business tenants. The amount of funding received from the licenses provides revenue to support the cost of owning and maintaining the Commission's land and facilities. Coachella Valley Association of Governments: A portion of the Commission's 1993 sales tax revenue bonds was issued for regional arterial projects in the Coachella Valley. Annually, CVAG reimburses_ the Commission for 25% of the regional arterial portion of debt service. 117 Service Authority for ' Freeway Emergencies: This motorist assistance program places freeway call boxes' throughout the freeways and state highwaysin the County." Additionally, the Commission allocates a portion of the SAFE revenue to support the FSP. the call 'boxes enable . motorists to summon help should they encounter' mechanical or emergency.. problems while on the road. This program is established through State .law that allows county SAFE agencies to impose a $1 surcharge on vehicle registrations within the County to pay for call box purchases and operations. The Commission is working with other SAFE agencies throughout the State to seek" enhanced: funding commitments through legislative and budgetary actions to .ensure that motorist aid programs can adequately meet the growing demands., • Freeway iService''Patrol: Caltrans is the primary sponsor of the FSP and provides the majority of funding for the program. The Commission administers and implements .the program elong;with the CHP and Caltrans. Investment Income: .The Commission has established..a prudent investment policy for cash on hand that is: intended to maximize return while, providing ,absolute safeguards on principal and liquidity. A more detailed explanation of the Commission's investment policy is discussed in another- section of this document: Measure A'Sales Tax'Revenues Revenue Proje ctions =The Commission historically has -obtained and. updated Measure A revenue projections through a consultant:.. The last update completed in ` May,2001 has not been relevant in recent years due to the unanticipated growth in sales tax revenues in the County.Accordingly, the Commission has revised the earlier projections through` 2009 to reflect current historical trends.

" The relative sales and property tax rates of Riverside and: surrounding counties do not change from historical levels. " Internet sales will have minimal impact on revenue. As the transition between the two sales tax measures approaches, these Measure A sales tax revenue projections are being updated by a consultant. The new projections will be utilized in the 2009 Measure A 10-year delivery plan, strategic partnership planning efforts, and an analysis of a potential increase to be sought in the $500,million. 2009 Measure A bonding cap. Geographic allocation - Riverside County is comprised of three geographic areas: Western County, Coachella Valley, and Palo Verde Valley. The percentage of Measure A revenues allocated to each of these areas based on retum to source is approximately 74% for Western County, 25% for Coachella Valley, and 1% for Palo Verde Valley. These percentages will experience some variations from year to year based on changes in levels of taxable sales.

The Commission has maintained an excellent credit rating and is one of .the highest rated self-help counties in the State.

The Commission currently maintains an Aa2/AA rating from Standard and Poor's and Moody's rating agencies. In FY 2006/07, staff will continue to work on a transition plan for the completion of the 1989 Measure A and the incorporation of the projects that are included in the 2009 Measure A TIP. The Commission established a commercial paper program in March 2005 for project development and land and right of way acquisition. Maturities of commercial paper will: be rolled over to new issuances of commercial paper, as the 2009 Measure A sales tax revenues will not be available until the 1989 Measure.A terminates in June 2009. Interest payments will be paid from available commercial paper proceeds or new issuances of commercial paper, The Commission expects to issue bonds to refinance .all or a portion of the outstanding commercial paper and to finance the projects included in the 2009 Measure A TIP. The Commission does not expect to issue any more debt from the 1989 Measure A. Debt Capacity Analysis The Commission is legally prohibited from issuing additional debt if its debt coverage ratio is less than 1.5 to 1 on all senior debt. The Commission has adopted a higher standard of 2 to 1 as part of its debt management policy. As Chart 23 and Table 61 indicate, the Commission has successfully met its policy standard. Any coverage less than 2 to 1 would necessitate using other program funding to cover all debt service expenditures. 131 Chart 23 —1989 Measure.A Debt Capacity Analysis $160,000,000' $140,000,000 $126,000,000_� $100,000,000 s -$80,00Q000 ,$60,000,000 r` $40,0,00,000 a b ?

Through increased participation, the 'Commission is able to play,,a stronger leadership role at all levels of govemment to advance its. interests and policy goals. The Commission's Public Affairs efforts focus on taking full' advantage, of opportunities at both the 'federal and state levels when there is a -potential impact to Commission. programs. In doing so, the Commission maintains its role as a major legislative force and a statewide leader on a .broad range of issues affecting transportation policy such as project delivery and enhanced funding. Recognizing that the Inland 'Empire area of Riverside and, San Bernardino_ counties has, a number of commonly., shared transportation concerns and a significant combined, legislative . delegation in. ,Sacramento and „Washington, D.C., the Commission works cooperatively with SANBAG to leverage the interests of the ` region. The Commission: is committed to communicating with and educating a broad arena of interested parties on the; roles and responsibilities of the agency. Emphasis is placed on informing Riverside County residents and businesses about;;transportation projects g P i ;transportation ro ects and services and maintainin open communication with other stakeholders.., Various forms of media and communication tools are used .in these . outreach .efforts- with the overall objectives to provide < accurate, informative, and easily accessibleinformation; facilitate public participation in the Commission processes; and increase interagency coordination and cooperation The Public Affairs Director Is responsible for communicationswith the news media and, prepares text for Commission materials, presentations, and speeches. Along with the Executive Director, the Public Affairs Director actively participates in public 154 " " presentations at the local, regional, and state levels to represent the Commission's interests. The need for proactive public communication and outreach remains important as the Commission continues to move forward with the delivery of the 1989 Measure A work program and begins to meld that ongoing effort with a new focus toward advancing project commitments under the 2009 Measure A work program. Strong relationships with the news media are very important to ensuring that the public is . well informed regarding the Commission's progress in determining funding priorities, designing infrastructure improvements, and constructing projects. There are many points throughout these processes in which the public can and should play a role in shaping the future of the County's transportation network. Key Assumptions " The Executive Director will oversee the legislative affairs work effort with support from the Public Affairs Director and legislative consultants., " An effective communication and education program will be developed with the media and the local legislative delegation regarding the importance of Proposition 42 and other sources of state funding in funding transportation projects. " The annual newspaper report to the public .will be published . in the major. newspapers throughout the County. " The Commission Connection newsletter will be published monthly.. " The Speakers Bureau effort will continue to seek local community, opportunities to expand outreach regarding the Commission's activities. " The Commission's website will be updated and refreshed on a regular basis. " Additional communications tools and opportunities .will be explored for. incorporation into the ongoing program to help build public awareness of Commission activities. Accomplishments " Participated in the statewide Proposition 42 Coalition which led to the full funding in the State budget in FY 2005/06. " . Worked with the local Congressional delegation to receive federal- funding earmarks for high -priority projects including the I-15/Cajalco interchange, the of SR-79 realignment, a new corridor to Orange County, and interchanges in the Coachella Valley. " Published a four page annual report supplement in three major newspapers - The Press Enterprise, Desert Sun, and The Californian. The supplement's centerfold featured various planning efforts to address major transportation needs including the Riverside County to Orange County MIS, the Mid County Parkway Project Study Report, and the SR-79 Realignment Study. 155 " Continued effective 'relationships with the news media 'resulting in informative coverage regarding local and regional transportation issues and Measure A project delivery. " Enhanced the Commission's stock of photos for use in various outreach . materials.. " : Provided extensive public outreach support as part of the project development process for the Mid County Parkway, SR-79 realignment, Perris Valley .Line Metrolink extension, and Riverside County to Orange County MIS projects. " Issued a new Commissioner Resource Notebook to maintain the reference materials as:a useful resource tool for Board members. Supported the Rail Department in the development of various, :marketing materials and advertisements including the SummerLink and. Holiday Train services. Increased the Commission's presence on television with interviews on Comc_ast Cable, KOCE, and KVCR. Major Initiatives Legislative Affairs . Legislatively, the continued quest for additional state and federal 'investment 'in transportation infrastructure :will be an ongoing concern.At the state -level,there is considerable momentum to seek an aggressive bond'. package to fund' infrastructure projects. Commission staff will work with Commissioners to ensure that the legal language behindthe bond measure is favorable and also ensure that Riverside County receives a significant share of funding. Another legislative area of emphasis is the protection ofr;Proposition '42 This measure was approved' by 70.percent of the State's:voters in, 2002 and allocates the revenue from the sales and .use tax on the sale of gasoline for transportation projects. Unfortunately, Proposition 42 provides a mechanism for the Governor and the Legislature to suspend it in the case of a fiscal emergency. The 'rsuspension has been triggered in the past during ,state budget crises. The Commission has',joined a statewide coalition to advocate an amendment. to Proposition ,42'to eliminate the loophole and will play a major role in this effort .in the upcoming fiscal year. Also of particular importance are the promotion and maintenance of interregional cooperation to. ensure that theinterests of the Commission are disseminated in a proactive;, informative manner. i Within that context, partnership development, public and private, isviewed as critical to the Commission's continued success in affecting positive transportation decisions to meet future demands. - The Commission's intergovernmental work effort will remain focused on facilitating ongoing commitments as .well as being responsive to various emerging issues... FY . 2006/07 interregional concerns :will -prove- to be a more, important taskfor the Commission on a number of issues.' " " One effort that has proved to be quite._ successful in recent years is cooperative . relations with Orange County. RCTC and OCTA have developed an effective working relationship involving the 91 Express Lanes, Metrolink, and other bi-county transportation issues. Finally, the Commission is making strides in working with San Diego County on. mutually important transportation issues. Our commissioners and members of the San Diego Association of Govemments are meeting on a periodic, basis to consider transportation issues. The areas involving cooperation include widening of 1-15, commuter assistance programs such as vanpooling, and potential rail services.

The Commission also. recognizes the importance of accountability for the organization. As a'result, the Commission is highly regarded by individuals, peers, other organizations, and government officials at .a local, regional, state, and national basis. A formal organizational accountability program was approved in January 2006 to address fraud risk, ethical conduct, financial and operational disclosure, and maintaining the public's confidence in' the Commission. Accordingly, measures are in the process of development based on a conceptual framework related to oversight, reporting, fraud, intemal control, and ethics.

Secondly,, the revenue update ,will be used by the financial advisory team to recommend actions to lessen the restriction'of the;$500 million 2009 Measure A bon. ding cap, which could include the possibility of a ballot measure in 2008 to increase the cap. Finally, the revenue update and 10-year delivery plan results will be the basis of initial planning efforts for a long-term debt issue in 2008 or 2009. The long-term debt issue will include a refinancing of all or a .portion of the outstanding commercial paper notes: Additionally, these efforts may include consideration of an interest rate hedge or swap transaction to take advantage of low interest rates in a currently rising interest rate environment.

If a deficiency occurs along the CMP system, a deficiency plan must be prepared that identifies mitigation measures and/or projects that will improve the LOS to "E" or higher. 175 " ` The Commission will continue its efforts in working with transportation partners to: streamline and improve project delivery. The Commission will continue its leadership role on CETAP and' work with our partner "agencies `'(SANBAG and OCTA) to .continue progress on these . corridors The CETAP effort will be funded with a combination of local, state, and federal funds. The consultant contract for CMP services is maintained to provide assistance with ongoing monitoring; efforts, update the CMP-on a`biennial basis, manage 'the traffic count data, and support other related planning activities. The Commission' will continue the progress of transportation projects identified in 19891Measure A and the'2009 Measure Aas well as other high priority projects, including TOME projects. " `; The Commission .will participate in local, bi-county,' and regional planning. efforts representing the interests of the County. The. Commission will work with the CTC to implement as many projects as possible given the current funding constraints. and continue to seek alternative funding for previously committed projects that have been delayed, in previous STIP cycles The Commission will  develop strategies to implement innovative financing including public/private partnerships. The Commission will develop a project management database . that 'will consolidate all projects into one database to improve efficiencies in monitoring projects_ and:; funding. Accomplishments Completed the 2006STIP submittal to the CTC. " Completed the 2006 FTIP submittal to SCAG. " Coordinated a call for projects and approved projects for STIP TE funds: " :Approved the Locally Preferred Strategy for: the Riverside County -Orange County MIS in cooperation with OCTA.' " Continued, progress on the east -west CETAP internal corridor with the project level Environmental ImpacfStudy (EIS)/En`vironmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Mid County Parkway: project. Minimized project delays in light of state funding shortfalls. " Received CTC ,approvalmf,an:AB 3090 Replacement Agreement .to proceed with the SR-60 Valley Way, to 1-15 HOV/Mixed Flow Lanes project by replacing STIP"fundswith a:TUMF 'loan and CTC approval: of a Letter of No Prejudice (LONP).' The AB 3090'agreement allows the reprogramming. of RIP funds to the SR-60/I-215 East Junction connector, and the LONP allows the payback of $21 million of CMAQ funding. • Received CTC approval of an AB :3090 Replacement Agreement to advance the SR-91 Green River interchange project by replacing STIP funds with a TUMF loan and commercial paper. The AB 3090 Replacement Agreement allows the reprogramming. of RIP funds to the SR-60/I-215 East Junction connector. • Initiated the strategic . partnerships effort by establishing contracts with consultants. Major Initiatives With the passage of SB 45 in 1998, increased funding authority and responsibility was placed on the Commission as it relates to the STIP.. SB 45 provides .for distribution of federal and state 'highway funds into :the following categories: RIP, IIP, and Intercity Rail. Each county transportation commission throughout the State is responsible for programming RIP funds, which represents 75% of the total STIP funding available statewide for capital enhancement projects. The 75% funding level is then further distributed with 60% of the funds allocated to Southern California and 40% to Northern California. A population formula is then applied to determine county levels called "county shares." • As a result of SB 45, . the Commission is responsible for ensuring that projects funded with STIP funding are administered and implemented consistent with CTC and Caltrans policies. Two percent of RIP funding available to Riverside County was allocated for staff support to carry out STIP planning, programming, and monitoring activities. Included in the 2009 Measure A is a provision that identifies $400 million of TUMF revenues collected on the Western County TUMF network to be allocated to TUMF regional arterial projects. Of the $400 million, $200 million is slated specifically for the CETAP corridors and the other $200 million for regional arterial projects. In late 2004 the Commission established a 5-year program and approved $71.7 million for 24 regional arterial projects. The Commission has initiated strategic partnership efforts to identify and evaluate innovative financing strategies. Innovative: financing will likely be necessary to fund the significant gap between funding readily available through conventional govemmental funding/financing techniques and project needs. Innovative financing including the use of public/private partnerships will be necessary to fully fund the 10-year delivery plan. Transportation Planning The Commission's role in planning throughout the year will involve working with SCAG, sub -regional agencies, local agencies, and the other county transportation 177 commissions in the region on various planning efforts relative to the 2008 RTP including, but not limited to, corridor studies, goods movement studies, and. -efforts to update transportation computer modeling upgrades and project databases'. The " Commission will take the lead in coordinating County project > submittals for inclusion in the 2008 RTP update. The Commission will also prepare comments on the draft 2008 RTP to ensure the Commission's policies ,and goals are reflected. In. FY 2006/07 the Commission will continue its work efforts on the new CETAP corridors. The :required technical reports for the Mid County Parkway should be completed this year, and..a draft environmental document should; be in its final.. stages of readiness for: public circulation. Additionally, initiation of the technical studies and preliminary engineering work outlinedas part of the Locally Preferred Strategy for. the Riverside' County-Orange'County MIS will begin this year. Work on the .MIS was conducted in a cooperative effort with OCTA and ; the Transportatiorr Corridor Agencies. We will also work in cooperation with SANBAG and affected Riverside County and San Bernardino County cities: to continue progress on the Moreno Valley -San Bernardino County corridor improvements. The FY 2006/07 CMP effort will focus on the 2006 , CMP update and traffic 'monitoring along the urban and rural highway systems. This effort: will provide an improved method of reporting traffic count data ,to meet federal and state monitoring requirements as well as local data needs. The traffic count information is planned to be posted on the Commission's website and willbe; updated on a quarterly: basis; . Transportation Programming - FTIP The 2006 FT1P update is'enticipatedto be federally approved in October 2006 `and will ;continue le be ,amended (approximately quarterly) to incorporate minor changes to projects that do not require transportation conformity modeling. The 2006 '' FTIP, update incorporates, projects that require' air quality modelingor changes to. existing projects that cermet.,be done through quarterly amendments. Projects identified in SAFETEA=LU must be, included' in. the FTIP. :Some projects have been included, in 'the 2006 FTIP update where project information- was available. Staff is working:with lead agencies to incorporate ;the .remaining SAFETEA-Lli earmark projects through'the amendment process. STIP' The 2066 STIP was; adopted bythe'CTC in April 2006. Amendments to the STIP are 'sub'mittedto Caltrans,on a semimonthly basis, asA'e. CTC meets every five to six weeks. STIP amendments are required when adding or deleting projects and to reflect changes in project scope "and/or funding. Time extensions .may be granted, but are not guaranteed, by the CTC for projects that cannot meet delivery schedules due to circumstances beyond the lead agency's control.' TE In 2004 the CTC restructured the administration of the TE program by incorporating it in the STIP. Since TE funds are federal, they are not impacted by the state budget. The Commission identified SAFETEA-LU reauthorization TE funds as a reserve in the 2006 STIP. As each TE project is ready for allocation, the project will be programmed on an individual basis. TUMF Project monitoring and tracking of TUMF regional arterial projects will occur according to the agreements between local agencies and the Commission. During FY 2006/07, Commission staff will continue to work with WRCOG in updating the project costs per the Nexus study update. In addition, Commission staff will work with local agencies to complete funding agreements and any issues regarding project delivery. SB 821 Annually, the Commission releases a call for bicycle and pedestrian projects in April. The Commission establishes an evaluation committee to rank eligible projects that meetthe established criteria_. Project recommendations are approved by the Commission in June. Project Monitoring Staff has awarded a contract with:a consultant firm to develop a web -based project management database. With the high demand .on reporting and monitoring the progress of projects to prevent funds from 'lapsing, a consolidated database will allow for efficient monitoring of project schedules and funding and for local agencies to access project information as well as update their respective _ project data.

The entire program includes elements of planning,, programming, commuter rail development and support, station and corridor management, mitigation of community and environmental impacts, legislative and regulatory advocacy, and construction of capital. projects. Many elements are: managed or supported by other Commission_ departments, Bechtel Infrastructure (Bechtel) project 184 " management, legal counsel, and consultants. Departmental efforts contributing to the rail program are found throughout the budget document. Coordination and consultation also occur with a variety of public and private entities including the CTC, Caltrans, Califomia Public Utilities Commission, Califomia High Speed Rail Authority, Federal Railroad Administration, FTA, Amtrak, environmental agencies, the University of California (UC), transit providers, SCAG, WRCOG, CVAG, local governments, private freight railroads, businesses, and property owners. The Commission participates in .the ongoing funding and governance of Metrolink by SCRRA, a joint powers authority consisting of thecounty transportation commissions of Riverside, San Bernardino, Orange, Los Angeles, and Ventura counties. The Commission holds two voting positions on SCRRA's eleven member board. Commission staff serves on the five -county Technical Advisory Committee which negotiates service and funding levels, based upon the county's established priorities, and provides technical assistance, coordination between various- SCRRA and commission departments, and linkages to local communities. Of the seven commuter rail, lines operated by Metrolink, three routes consisting of the Riverside, IEOC, and 91 Lines directly serve Western County. Key Assumptions " Metrolink's preliminary FY 2006/07 budget is adopted by the Commission and SCRRA. " Ridership and fare revenues continue to grow on the Riverside, IEOC, and 91 Lines. " The Commission manages the station security guard contract. Estimated costs are based on the actual contract terms with a portion to be reimbursed by SCRRA. " Preliminary engineering of the FTA New Starts Perris Valley Line project is completed during FY 2006/07. . Accomplishments " Completed the SCRRA 30-Year Strategic Assessment. " Completed 2005 Riverside County Commuter Rail Feasibility Study. The study recommended future study of commuter rail extensions to Hemet/San Jacinto and Temecula/Murrieta. " Increased ridership on the IEOC Line by 9% over the FY 2004/05 actual ridership. Successfully transitioned the Beach Train into the SummerLink service with OCTA and SANBAG. The service grew from one round trip to three a day, .and the ticketing was streamlined into regular Metrolink operations. The 2005 SummerLink operated over 24 dates and provided 18,932 passenger trips. " Supported the Holiday Toy -Train events at Riverside County stations. Community participation grew substantially with 2,850 people in attendance between the four station events, and the Spark of Love Toy Drive generated a record number of toys 185 for local charities. The Commission -sponsored school contest generated additional attendance by encouraging classes to .participate in the toy drive. • Continued .to support additional Inland Empire/Orange County marketing :efforts :to encourage ridership growth of 9% over previous year's actual ridership. Major Initiatives Over the last 14 years, significant capital improvements have been made on the private freight corridors over which the Commission's commuter rail services operate. Current major initiatives include construction of Phase 2 parking expansion at the Riverside, Downtown station and preliminary engineering of the FTA New Starts Perris Valley Line. Additionally, the .Commission is working with OCTA and SANBAG to expand the summer 1E0C weekend service into a year-round service with two daily round trips and to advance additional 1E0C and 91 Line train service by2010. Chart 35 = Metrolink Ridership '12000 ,10000 8000 6000 In recent yearsRailOperations has also focused attention on the; creation of intercity passenger rail service between the Coachella Valley, Riverside, and the Los Angeles' basin (with future extension to the Mexican border at Calexico) through advocacy effo'ts with state, federal„and+ local government entities , and .negotiation with the freight railroads. `The Commission's current efforts include seeking capital and operating funds and'coordinating with Amtrak West "and Caltrans. The Commission continues to ;play a proactive role in the development of astatewide, high-speed" passenger "rail system, including routing of the backbone corridor through the Inland. Empire with possible stations in Downtown Riverside,: UC Riverside, March ARB, Murrieta;_and Temecula. The California High Speed Rail Authority has completed a draft program'EIR and. program' EIS for a 700=mile high' speed train: system serving Sacramento, the San Francisco Bay Area, the Central Valley, Los: Angeles, the .Inland. Empire, Orange County, end San Diego. " Unlike the other SCRRA member agencies, the Commission owns and operates the commuter rail stations serving Riverside County: Riverside Downtown, Pedley, La Sierra, West Corona, and North Main Corona. Station operation and maintenance costs are included in the Rail Operations budget with services coordinated by the Commission's Property. Management Department. New and ongoing construction projects at these stations are described in the capital budget.

To date, the rail properties number over 225 parcels, including five Metrolink commuter rail stations. Operation of these, stations is overseen by this department; however, expenditures are identified in the. Rail Operations budget. The Commission has acquired approximately 500 parcels for the SR-74 highway project. In addition 32 properties have been acquired for the Mid County Parkway project, SR-79 realignment and the SR-60 HOV lanes. These properties consist of both fee and temporary construction easements which will be transferred to Caltrans upon completion of the projects. . The Property Department develops license and right of entry agreements related to the SJBL which require the coordination of a variety of public and private entities (i.e., Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, Caltrans, and BNSF). Numerous agreements are negotiated and executed as directed by- the Property Committee and the Commission. Upon project completion, properties are reassessed and are deemed surplus when it has been determined that the continued retention of the property no longer supports the Commission's policy goalsand objectives. Key Assumptions " The exchange with Caltrans and March JPA related to property along the 1-215 will be completed. " The demonstration of the closed circuit- television (CCTV) surveillance cameras at the La Sierra station will be completed. " The street vacations in the vicinity of the Riverside Downtown station will . be completed. 191 Accomplishments Completed the appraisals of the Corona Depot, Madisonproperty, and future Alessandro station. Completed the development of a detailed property inventory log to include the recently acquired properties for SR-79 and the Mid County Parkway. Generated over;$80,000 in new revenue from increasing fees for existing billboard licenses: With the assistance of Epic, generated over $50,000 in out lease revenue from the BNSF.

Substantial support is fumished to social service and public transit agencies, which serve special and unique needs of seniors and persons with disabilities. Annually, the Commission facilitates a competitive call for projects to allocate FTA Section 5310 funds available to non-profit transportation and social service agencies and public operators under special circumstances for the purchase of capital equipment. Key Assumptions " Western County disbursements are based on the preliminary results of the call for projects released in February 2006. " CVAG allocates its discretionary five -percent of Measure 'A funding to SunLine for specialized transit. Accomplishments " Provided approximately $2,041,000 to 10 non-profit organizations in Western County as a result of the Commission's two-year competitive call for projects. The funding was used to provide transportation assistance to seniors, the disabled, and economically disadvantaged residents of Western County. " Transitioned the Westem County taxi demonstration program that was developed and implemented in October 2003 to the Riverside Transit Agency (RTA). The RTA program was funded with TDA funds. " Conducted a study to determine the non -emergency medical transportation needs in Western County to assist in providing program direction for the FY 2006/07 and FY 2007/08 call for projects. 195 ;Major Initiatives The Commission has longdemonstrated a strong commitment to assist: in themobility of those with specialized transit needs. Through its =Specialized Transit Program, the Commission has provided millions of dollars to public and non-profit transit operators: for the provision of special transit services .to improve the mobility 'of:'seniors and persons with, disabilities. Along with support of traditional dial -a -ride services the Commission supportsinnovative programs which provide transit assistance in hard to serve rural areas or for riders having very special transit needs. For 17 years, the Commission has provided operating grants to a number of non-profit agencies in Westem County to assist in the provision of very specialized transit services. The riders, many frail and elderly, have come to depend on these services which provide a, higher levelofassistance than can be provided by the public transit providers and/or operate in areas not served by public transit. In February 2006, a call for projects covering FY 2006/07 and !FY 2007/08 was released for Western County Specialized Transit programs, including the non -emergency medical transportation component. 'Based on a preliminary review of proposals received, funding exceeding: $3 million was requested through . the call for projects by local agencies throughout Western County to support ongoing and new programs: In ,order to 'assure' the availability of funds to support matching of FTA Section 5310 capital grants, $150,000 on an annual basis is budgeted for Western County applicants to meet the 11.47% local matching requirements for such grants. Department Goals Provide timely information to, the public regarding Commission implemented projects and support public relations activities of Measure A funded programs by grant recipients. Objective- • .:Produce and distribute public, information .materials asneeded including ;press releases, flyers, brochures, marketing materials, and newspaper ads. Allocate Measure A Specialized ,Transit: funds to support services which will maintain and/or enhance mobility for seniors, persons with disabilities,and the truly needy: Objectives: • Monitor performance of Specialized "Transit grant recipients through`( analysis of their quarterly performance reports. • Continue discussions ,with the Office on Aging and ,the United Way to encourage funding of transportation projects by these agencies. Assistance to screen eligible transportation programs and monitoring the cost effectiveness of these proposals will continue to be offered to both agencies. 196 " Support the FTA Section 5310 grant process for the purchase of capital projects to improve mobility for seniors and persons with disabilities by working with Caltrans, public operators, and social service agencies to ensure a competitive process statewide for the allocation of federal transportation . dollars for social service programs_ " Provide technical assistance and program support to agencies offering specialized transit programs to ensure the maximum benefit of funding for improved mobility for seniors, persons with disabilities, and the economically disadvantaged. Continue to provide staff resources to assist and support the coordination of transit services within the County and throughout the State. Objectives: " Regularly participate in meetings that focus on the coordination of transit services, such as the California Association for Coordinated Transportation,'SunLine's Access Committee, RTA's Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Committee, and the Riverside County Foundation on Aging Board of Directors.

To help foster more efficient use of these systems, the 'Commission's Commuter Assistance Program seeks to encourage Riverside County constituents/commuters to make a mode -shift decision away from solo vehicle commuting and into a shared 'commuting arrangement. Through the use of incentives both for beginning and then maintaining a mode- shift/rideshare arrangement, the provision of employer services to foster the implementation of employer -based mode -shift and rideshare programs, and public information services including the dissemination of traveler information through the use of . 203 , for its residents and employers in San Bernardino County. Accomplishments;'` technology, the Commuter Assistance Program seeks to influence driver behavior by incentivizing a mode shifting decision: at both the employer and commuter levels. The Commission's Commuter Assistance Program was implemented as a. specific requirement. under Measure A to address congestion mitigation. While ridesharing has a beneficial impact on air quality, first and foremost, it is a strategy to ease traffic I' congestion through increased use of altemative forms of., transportation ;'including carpools, vanpools, buspools, public bus, Metrolink, congestion avoidance; walking', bicycling, and:telecommuting. Key Assumptions The. Commission;: will continue to contract with a consulting firm .to implement the Commuter Assistance Program., The Commission willrealize a 5% cut in the cost for the consultant to 'implement the Commuter Assistance Program through' the use of more efficient work plans and increased consultant staff 1productivity. At the regional level, four county transportation commissions (Los Angeles, Orange, San;. Bernardino, and Ventura) will contract with the Commission for Ale provision of regional ridematching database and network operations, the provision of ridesl anng information services; and operation of the regional website www.CommuteSmart.info. The Commission will continue to operate in a leadership rolefor the development of regional traveler information systems and nexus to the national 511 implementation effort being studied for the SCAG region. Maintaining its long-term partnership with the Commission,;SANBAG will contract with the; Commission; to manage ;and implement a "sister" Commuter Assistance Program Operated, maintained, and, `enhanced the .regional rid,ematching database and ridesharing information system for the five -county region.. is Operated, maintained, and enhanced the regional rideshare website, www.CommuteSmart.info, on:behalf of the five -county region. Taking direction from the Commission,' the traffic map portion of the website underwent,a major expansion in.orderto reflect, the,entirelnland.Empire region stretching; from the Nevada/Arizona border to the Mexican border,at,San Diego. Working closely withits regional partners; the Commission,; has. been able to improve '(through the use of 'technology and enhanced site graphics) the user experience for employers and commuters visiting the; website who are, or will be, making:a mode-shift/rideshare decision. • Worked cooperatively with the` MSRC and other regional partners in order to utilize the MSRC "Pick'A Day, Any ,Day" media campaign to promote, the new CommuteSmart website.. This effort resulted in .a' 30% increase in the daily number of hits to the website during eachmedia sweep. . Implemented four, out of eight findings from "Consumer Research Focus 'Group Effort This resulted in,,:the,Commission's. revision of;: its; marketing and employer outreach materials as well as onsite presentations undertaken by representatives working can behalf of the Commission. Revised, enhanced, and continued to' provide to interested employers an electronic commuter survey. In making technological improvements to the e-survey, employers'. now have the 'option to survey, their employees electronically in total or by combining both paperand electronic formats, thus making Ahe "user experience "much 'rnore efficient for the employer: The number of employers using the `e-survey increased by; 12% over the previous' fiscal year. Planned, ;developed, and'irrrplemented "a new Program Measurement Tool. The tool is designed to enable consultant" staff to :uniformly enter project results, thereby:making,` the data consistent and in, a format that will allow for real-time trending of program perforMance by the Commission: Identified and recruited new park`and ride locationsin Menifee and Corona.: Continued with a revitalization of the Rideshare Plus incentive program by holding number of merchant participanteto 500 while increasing .the value of the merchant discount offers: Major Initiatives A cornerstone of the Commuter Assistance Program is its continued partnership among . commuters, employers, and:, government. The partnership, based on voluntary efforts, makes ,a"collective difference in increasing the efficiencyof our "transportation system — local roads, freeways, commuter rail, and public bus. The: combined, effort results in less congestion, decreased vehicle miles traveled, and improved air quality. For FY 2006/07, the Comhnlssiori will undertake a series of pnagrammaiic,analysistask for the Commuter Assistance Program including the following_ investigation and analysis regarding the provision of the modeshifttrideshare: incentive, the potential kr: iricreased outreach to students and seniors; the potential for fostering increased participation with small employer partners vie the provision of secure on-line transactions; and the potential for more direct communication with end user ,commuters via the provision of secure on- line transactions. It isintended that the results derived from this analysis, used in concert with the Program Measurement Tool, will allow -the Commission to fester: improved service delivery and greater constituent participation in the program. orking with our modal partners {transit and railj; .the Commuter Assistance Program PY 2006r/07 is also looking to increased opportunity for cross marketing, in particular the -erid useitcommuter. Consistent with the development of the Program Measurement Tool, the Commission will seek to more efficiently implement "the Commuter Assistance program. By focusing resources on those programs that 'result in increased participation by commuters, the Commission expects the. program to yield a '5% savings in the consultant cost to implement; 205 To further augment the Cornrnuter Assistance Program shopping cart of services, an effort to assess, develop,, and implement a GRH Program to serve Inland Empire employers (initiated in FY 2005/06) will be delivered in FY 2006/07 for both Riverside and San Bernardino counties. li The Commission is also highly involved in the regional decision for the implementation of 511 and the dissemination of Advanced Traveler Information services. 511 is an unfunded federal mandate arising out of TEA21 and SAFETEA-LU and it requires that real-time or near, real-time traffic and traveler information be provided to the public. Given the lack of funding from the federal government for this initiative, the Commission has taken a leadership rolein organizing a regional discussion to deal with the mandate. Department Goals Operate a cost,effective Commuter Assistance Program within Riverside County that results in a demonstral3le reduction in single occupant vehicle trips thus assisting with congestion mitigation and improving air quality. Objectivei: , • Ensure, the effectiveness of the Commuter Assistance Program through program analysis and recurring assessments of participation and retention of riclesharers. Through the implementation of the Program Measuremertt Tool, the Commission will continue to look for. ways to pare program costs without impacting `service delivery or 4111 participation. • Continue the new employer recruitment effort first implemented in the previouS fiscal year for FY 2006/07. This is intended to increase pregrarn visibility with Inland Empire employers and small businesses (100-250 employees each) not currently subject to SCAQMD rules. • , , • Complementing the " new employer recruitment effort, construct ai methodoldgy to reach Out t6 employerS and speak directly to their employees ;through- the Use of technologY.' The Commission intends to study the effectiveness of providing secure on-line transactions and electronic signature and verification services:: • Leverage the use of technology to provide ridematchingi,inforrnation and services to Riverside County ernployerS! and end user commuters by taking advantage of the - services and 'prodUcte hosted On the regional ridematchingdatabase and website. • Continue to offer Short-terrat incentives for commuters to try a transportation >mode other ffian driving alone. • Continue to provide a revvanis program for long-term ridesharers to encourage their continued use of alternative modes of transportation. Ensure the coordination Of ridesharing programs throughout the inland Empire and the southern California region. 206 i " Objectives: " On behalf of the region, continue to provide leadership with regard to the ongoing operation, maintenance, and enhancement of both the regional ridematching database and network and the regional rideshare website, www.CommuteSmart:info. These resources allow the region to be in a position to put forth a collective effort and provide a single regional resource for employers and commuters who are seeking the information and resources necessary to make a modeshift and ridesharing decision. " Using www.CommuteSmart.info along with 1-800-Commute, continue to take the lead in merging the development of real-time and accessible traveler information. The Commission will continue to work with its regional partners on technology development, implementation, and the cost-effective delivery of such information. " Contract for the enhancement of the RideGuides through a grant funded by the MSRC. Working in partnership with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority, this grant will enable transit information to be displayed on individualized RideGuides produced for employees who have been surveyed. " Continue to administer a "sister" Commuter Assistance Program in San Bernardino County on a contract basis, thus expanding the reach and effectiveness of commuter programs throughout the Inland Empire area. " Fund and participate in regional rideshare marketing programs to enhance awareness of and encourage participation in commute modes that provide an alternative to driving alone. Enhance and pursue educational activities that encourage alternatives to driving alone and that encourage employers to assist employees in seeking commute methods other than driving alone. Objectives: " Enter the new Commuter Exchange vehicle into service. The Commuter Assistance Program budget intends for the vehicle to be completed and on the road for the FY 2006/07 fiscal year. Sixty site visits are intended. " In partnership with the four county transportation commissions and others, utilize the regional ridesharing database and website, www.CominuteSmart.info, to host and distribute the monthly electronic rideshare newsletter, CommuteSmartNews. " Maintain, update, enhance, and refresh the Club and Team Ride members' only website, www.Rideshareolus.info. " Distribute regular broadcast fax information bulletins to local employers regarding commuter issues. " Investigate the implementation of a "paperless" (on-line transactions) program in order to increase small employer participation and reach out to end user commuters. " Advocate through the Commission's legislative program for commuter -friendly tax deductions for employers, who assist residents by paying for transit passe_ s and vanpool costs.

FSP service is also provided in construction zones through separate funding agreements with Caltrans to { help mitigate congestion. 210 " " Key Assumptions " 'Existing percentage levels of vandalism, knockdowns, and miscellaneous repairs will remain consistent with the past year; however, the actual number of incidents will decline due to the reduction in the number of call boxes throughout the system. " Since maintenance costs are based on a flat -fee maintenance contract with Comarco. Wireless Technologies, annual maintenance costs will decline by an estimated 39% due to the reduction in call boxes. " Call box operating costs are based on estimates from the CHP and the call answering center contract through SANBAG. " " Cellular service charges are based on the existing five-year agreement with AT&T Wireless Servicesfor digital cellular service. " Costs for conversion to digital technology and ADA and site accessibility retrofits are based on estimates of work to be completed in FY 2006/07. " Tow track contractor costs for the six existing beats are based on Commission - approved contracts. " Data collection for the six FSP beats will be automated through the use of P. DAs. Accomplishments " . Continued the implementation of recommendations identified in the Riverside County SAFE Call Box Program 5-Year Plan by awarding a contract to Comarco Wireless Technologiesto enhance accessibility and retrofit- selected sites as recommended in the 5-Year Plan. " Worked with the call box consultant to analyze the decline in call volume along with the need to maintain a "safety net" system for motorists in Riverside County and to develop a call box reduction plan to responsibly meet those needs. . " Worked with the CHP and Caltrans to identify and justify the need for an additional FSP beat on 1-15 south of SR-91, issued an RFP, and awarded a contract for service on the new beat. " Continued midday FSP service (8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.) on portions of SR-91 and SR-60/I-215 to mitigate. congestion during the construction on the SR-60/SR-91/1- 215 interchange. One additional vehicle on SR-91 and three vehicles on SR-60/I- 215 are available during the three-year construction period of the project. " Conducted a pilot program to evaluate the effectiveness of using PDAs to collect data and -an AVL system to track the tow trucks in order to assist the CHP in supervising the increasing number of vehicles. Major Initiatives Once the call box system reduction is complete, the implementation of the recommendations in the SAFE 5-Year Plan will continue. Projects to enhance accessibility and retrofit sites will affect approximately 670 call boxes. The modifications will involve reconfiguring sites to meet new site standards, relocating boxes behind guard rails, replacing pedestrian pads, lowering call boxes on the poles, or replacing the sites with the new "L" or "M" site design. 211 Staff will complete the implementation of the AVL system for the tow trucks as well as the use of PDAs to collect the data. All of the vehicles and drivers will be fully equipped' by the end of the fiscal year, representing the first SAFE in the•State. to' implement the ; use of this technology. In conjunction with our call box consultant and other SAFEs'throughout the State;'staff .` will continue. to keep abreast of and evaluate all technology to improve service to hearing andspeech, impaired motorists. Department Goals .

Capital Projectsis responsible for the development and delivery of major ;highway, . regional arterial, and rail capital projects where the Commission is identified as the lead agency. The delivery of a capital project can include tasks such as feasibility studies, preliminary engineering, environmental clearance, final design, right of way acquisition, construction, and construction, management. Approximately 84% of the Commission's" budget,, originates in this department managed by the Deputy Executive Director responsible for the capital program and Project Delivery Director. The primary goal of Capital', Projects is to accelerate delivery of the Measure A, STIP, and federally funded .,highway,; regional arterial, and rail capital improvement projects,' throughout' the County. Highway : improvements currently in 'progress include ..the; addition of carpool' lanes,; widening and realignment projects, .;and interchange 'improvements. The Commission will continue its efforts to!protect and purchase right of way .for .the identified highway, improvements as. funding permits. i'Regional .arterial capital .improvements include planning for new CETAP corridors,:. and : funding, for: Western' County TUMF regional arterial projects approved by the Commission in 2004 as a result of a call for projects. • Commuter rail capital improvements include new or; expanded parking facilities„the FTA New Starts Perris Valley Line, and 'a multimodal; facility in the city of Perris. In addition to the Measure A projects constructed directly by the ''Commission, this department provides the necessary coordination between the Commission and Caltrans for the development of scope,' cost, and project delivery schedules for Measure `A projects that are' 'funded 'by the STIP. For these projects, Caltrans has the responsibility, . for design and construction as the lead agency. r " Capital Projects also has lead agency status over certain demonstration projects identified in TEA21 and SAFETEA-LU. The FY 2006/07 cash flow .to support the highway construction program is directly impacted by thecondition of the . State's budget problems. In FY 2003/04 the Commission advanced $33,915,000 of Western County Measure A highway -funds to Caltrans to guarantee the delivery of the. SR-60/SR-91/1-215 J interchange project. Repayment from the State -of $31,324,000 of the amount advanced is due in FY 2006/07, and, until that time, cash to support new .construction projects has. been determined on a project by project basis. The 2009 Measure A program includes stipulations. for agencies in Western County to be eligible to receive the new, Measure A local streets and roads funds. beginning. in 2009. Each incorporated city in Western County and the County must participate in the TUMF program, which is administered by WRCOG. Additional requirements include participation in the Westem County. MSHCP and submittal of an' annual' capital improvement program. In FY 2003/04 the Commission and WRCOG entered into an MOU which identifies a distribution of the TUMF revenues prior to the 2009 Measure A which commences in July 2009. The distribution, after deduction of a WRCOG administrative fee, is 48.1 % to the Commission for regional arterials and CETAP corridors, 48.1% to WRCOG for the five TUMF improvement zones, and 3.8% to the RTA for regional transit facilities. Given the staff support required to oversee and participate in the preliminary project development work associated with the Mid County Parkway project and the SR-79 Realignment project as well as the various TUMF projects, costs for staff and related support have been included in this budget. As additional project development is assumed by the Commission to support TUMF project delivery, such expenditures may increase. Key Assumptions " The Commission will continue its emphasis on completion of the.1989 Measure A program. " The January 2000 Strategic Plan Phase I serves as the basis for defining the 1989 Measure A project selection and prioritization. " TUMF regional arterial project costs are based on the list of projects; approved by the Commission in 2004. " Agreements for the advancement of 2009 Measure A funds have been obtained from CVAG and cities desiring to participate in thecommercial paper program. " Highway project costs are based on engineers' estimates and scope agreements with Caltrans. " Construction projects are competitively bid tominimizecosts. " All projects will be built to required standards. 217 Accomplishments •" Successfully negotiated with Ca!trans for AB 3090'Replacement Agreements to provide Commission funding for the SR-60 Valley -Way to I-15 NOV/Mixed Flow Lanes .and SR-91 'Green River Road interchange projects, thereby ensuring that these projects would -proceed to construction. • -Completed construction ;and commenced landscaping and plant establishment on the SR-60 HOV widening from SR-60/I-215 to Redlands Boulevard:' • Completed the parking lot improvements on Vine Street_ at the Riverside Downtown station. Completed preliminary engineering of Phase 1 for the Perris Multimodal Facility for . the RTA bus tr`ansitcenter. Achieved substantial construction ,progress on Segment II of the`; SR-74 widening project. Made substantial progress related to the environmental process for the Mid County .' Parkway and SR-79 Realignment projects. Initiated final design ?,on theparking structure project at the North Main Corona station: Major Initiatives' The Commission: updates the STIP, FTIP, and Measure A revenues projected through the year 2008 for each area of the County based . on formulas approved by the . Commission. - Those projections allow the Commission to identify "specific :,'projects, priorities, and funding sources for each year of the Strategic Plan period. The construction' projects .-identified in the FY 2006/07budget funded by Measure A, TUMF„ state, or;federal ',funds require the continued support of the 1Bechtel': program management team which.includes:program managers, project engineers,construction engineers, inspectors, and support staff. Since the passage of SB 45 in 1997, the Commission is responsible forSTIP-RIP fund programming and project ";,delivery.` in partnership with Caltrans' and " the., CTC. r Additionally, the, Commission ;may also be responsible for ,project "delivery of federal' demonstration' projects.;: Further, the; Commission has agreed to provide continuing',: assistance: through Bechtel, to Caltrans to support the completion; of the Riverside;. Measure A SR-60/SR-91/1-215 highway project through :the design „Sequencing process allowed by AB 405. A major effort is'currently underway related to an update of the delivery status of the 1989 Measure A as wellI-as an objective assessment of the scope, 'cost, issues, and challenges related to the 12009 'Measure A. This .information should assist the,. Commission in prioritizing, project delivery for the first 10 years of the 2009 Measure A. The expected outcome of this process is a 10-year delivery plan for the 2009 Measure: A. The Commission also disburses Measure A local streets and roads funds directly to the cities and County for their use. The budgeted amount is set by formula established in the Measure' .A .TIP. Local jurisdictions will receive $58,318,300 for local streets and roads maintenance, repair, and construction. Each jurisdiction's respective allocation is based on population (Westem_ County and Palo Verde Valley) or dwelling unit (Coachella Valley) and the amount of sales tax generated. A number of jurisdictions in the Western County have entered into loan agreements with the Commission for advance acceleration of 1989 Measure A local streets and roads revenues. The annual principal and interest payments for these loans are deducted by the Commission from each city's respective disbursements based on the terms of the loan agreements. The participating jurisdictions are the cities of Canyon Lake, Corona, Norco, Perris, San Jacinto, and Temecula. Additional agreements have been executed with CVAG and the cities of Blythe, Hemet, and Indio, to advance acceleration of 2009 Measure A regional arterial or local streets and roads revenues through participation in the commercial paper program. La Quinta is the only city in the Coachella Valley which does not participate in the Coachella Valley TUMF Program. Accordingly, La Quinta's Measure A allocation is remitted to CVAG in lieu of the TUMF. The Coachella Valley has a discretionary five percent of its Measure A sales tax revenues that may be allocated for either local streets and roads or transit as determined by CVAG. CVAG has usually elected to allocate such revenues to transit. A summary of the capital projects, including local streets and roads funding, included in the FY 2006/07 budget follows the Performance/VVorkload Indicators. Department Goals Continue prudent right of way protection and preservation activities for Measure A and TUMF. projects to control long-range project costs and project feasibility. Objectives: • Purchase property to protect right of way required for future projects, as funding is available. • Develop agreements with private property owners/developers, where practical, to coordinate the design of Measure A- and TUMF-funded highway improvements required for development. Build upon and strengthen the partnership with Caltrans toward timely delivery of identified Measure A and STIP projects. Objectives: • Develop agreements with Caltrans and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), as may be required, to finalize project scoping and cost issues for the STIP, 219 SAFETEA-LU federal demonstration projects, .and; Measure A -funded highway ;. projects in Riverside'. County. • • Provide quarterly contract status and cost schedule reports to the Commission and Caltrans: In coordination with SANBAG and Caltrans District 08, provide the FHWA Regional Administrator and his key staff members with a briefing on theoverall highway programs of Measures A (Riverside County) and I (San Bernardino County) and the status of various projects, as well as identify and discuss issues which need • resolution in order to keep current projects on schedule. To`the ,extent permitted; by law, pursue reasonable involvement of local 'DBE firms and minority and women.' business enterprises in contract work. Objective: Maintain goal for. a' "minimum DBE participation in all federally funded contracts. Continue to review quarterly report on DBE participation levels. Provide effective communication of project progress to the Commission board ' members, Caltrans, and FHWA. Objective. • Develop a.strategy with Caltrans District 08 that would allow the Commission to advance specific projects identified in the Strategic Plan to take advantage of any unexpected state or federal funding which may become available through increased state or federal budget authorizations or potential loan programs: to advance construction. Work with • Caltrans and '.other agencies toward completion ` of 'preliminary engineering and environmental clearance of all projects.

Profile Riverside County is the fourth largest county in California, stretching westward nearly 200 miles from the Colorado River and comprising more than 7200 square miles that include 24 incorporated cities. Riverside County can trace its beginning back to 1893 when voters approved the formation of a new county. The area was carved from parts of San Bemardino and San Diego counties. In its 110+ years of existence, the County's economy has diversified and prospered. Originally, Riverside County was a very agricultural area, known for a wide variety of crops grown on its fertile soils. The County remains a strong agricultural area, but it is increasingly becoming a leader in manufacturing, transportation, construction, and tourism. The success of the area has brought dramatic population growth to Riverside County. During the 1980's, the County was the fastest growing county in the state. The available and affordable housing in Riverside County has attracted many people to the County. While the County's population and housing growth continues, jobs are also increasing as many firms relocate to the area and move away from older communities. The economic outlook for Riverside County remains bright with more firms moving into the area, while existing employers expand. At the same time, the area is preparing for its future as well in supporting better education. The County is home to a number of colleges and universities including UC Riverside.

Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) In 1991, the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) was approved by Congress to replace the former Federal Aid Urban/Federal Aid System funding programs. 1STEA was established as a six -year funding program and was reauthorized for. another six years in 1997. This new transportation act was renamed as the Transportation Equity Act of the Twenty-first Century (TEA21) and was extended through August 10, 2005 when the President signed into law the Safe, Accountable, 239 Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity, Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU). With guaranteed funding for highways, highway safety, and public transportation," totaling $244:1 billion;• SAFETEA-LU. represents the largest surface transportation '; investment in our nation's history. Under these programs the following fund sources are allocated to each county; and the ' Commission further allocates these funds based on federal provisions.

These types of improvements' are needed to contrOrtrafhc, increase safety, and maintain the quality of _life within the County. Since existing state, and federal sources provide only a limited amount of funding for a limited number of projects, Measure A'will cover the shortfall for key projects with, a funding source that is under local control. It will use the revenue generated in " Western County, Coachella Valley, and Palo Verde Valley to meet the unique transportation needs of each of those areas. Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee The Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) program was adopted by all local jurisdictions in the western county area of Riverside County in July 2003.

In accordance with the extension of Measure A in 2002, the Commission shall receive the first $400 million of TUMF revenues to fund equally the regional arterial system and the development of new corridors. As a result of a Memorandum of Understanding with WRCOG, the Commission will receive 48.1% of TUMF through June 30, 2009, and, in accordance with the extension of Measure A, thereafter at 100%, afler deduction of an administrative fee, up to an aggregate of $400 million.

The system is to be implemented " with a mix of funding required from new development under a Traffic Uniform Mitigation Fee to be paid by developers from new development and from Measure A funds retumed to the Coachella Valley area. The Traffic Uniform Mitigation Fee schedule shall beestablished in order to . generate at least the equivalent of Measure A funding toward the regional arterial system. Local Streets and Roads Measure A provides revenues to local jurisdictions for the construction, repair; and maintenance of local -streets and roads. The County and local cities are required to supplement those expenditures with other previously dedicated revenue sources to maintain road improvements at a level equal to or greater than the base year amount (fiscal year 241 87i88).

Agreement No. 06-31-068-00, Measure A Local Streets and Roads Advancement Agreement, between the Commission and the City; and 3) Forward to the Commission for final action. BACKGROUND INFORMATION_ In late March 2006, staff received an electronic mail request from the City for an advance of its FY 2006/07 Measure A LSR funding approximating $2,000,000. The advance is needed to supplement other City funds for a city-wide repaving project to commence this summer. Recently, staff received a formal request, which is included as Attachment 1. It is estimated that the City's share. of FY 2006/07 Measure A LSR funding is $2,126,000. The $126,000 difference between the estimated funding available and the project advance will be utilized to pay accrued interest costs, as the advance will be funded by the Measure A Western County Highway Fund. Staff has negotiated with the City an interest rate equal to the quarterly Riverside County Pooled Investment Fund plus a .25% administrative fee. The advance will be available to the City beginning July 1, 2006. Staff will withhold 100% of the City's monthly Measure A LSR allocations and make quarterly payments to the Measure A Western County Highway Fund. If there is a balance of Measure A LSR allocations to the City after full repayment of the advance, including interest, such balance will be remitted directly to the City. In the unlikely event that the FY 2006/07 Measure A LSR allocations to the City are less than the total advance of 255 $2,126,000, any balance due,vvould be deducted fronn,the FY 2007/08 Measure,A LSI9 allOcations.

The City of Hemet is • designing a city-wide repaving project. The project will start construction in Summer 2006. The City's current balance of Measure A funds is only half of the amount needed to complete the project. To facilitate completion of the project, the City requests an advance of its FY06/07 Measure A allocation. We understand the advance will require approval of the Commission, require payment of interest (to be deducted from the FY06/07 allocation), and funds will not ready for disbursement until September 2006, if approved. The advance will allow Measure A funds to benefit the public earlier, result in savings from economies of scale, and expedite the rehabilitation of more streets in Hemet. Thank you for your cooperation and please contact me at (951) 765-3870 if you need more information.

Tow Truck Agreement No. 02-45-070 with Tri-City Towing, Inc., to extend the term of the agreement and increase_ the hourly rate from $45.00 to $47.00 for Beat #4; 2) Approve Agreement No. 02-45-071-04, Amendment No. 4 to Freeway Service Patrol Tow Truck Agreement No. 02-45-071 with Pepe's Towing Services, Inc, to extend the term of the agreement and increase .the hourly rate from $43.75 to $45.75 for Beat #18; 3) Authorize, the Chair, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreements on behalf of the Commission; and 4) Forward to Commission for final action. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Commission, acting in its capacity as the Riverside County Service Authority for Freeway Emergencies (SAFE), provides Freeway Service Patrol (FSP) service on six segments or beats of SR 91, I-215/SR 60, and 1-15. Annually, the program provides approximately 32,500 assists to stranded motorists along Riverside County freeways. The FSP tow trucks remove disabled vehicles and those involved in minor accidents from the freeway to improve its flow and reduce pollution. Service patrol operators will change a flat tire, provide "jump" starts, provide a maximum of one gallon of fuel, temporarily tape cooling system hoses, and refill radiators. If the operator cannot get the vehicle moving, it is towed off the freeway to pre -designated drop locations where the motorist can make arrangements for further assistance. Currently, the program operates fifteen tow trucks patrolling over 50 miles of freeway, Monday through Friday. during the peak commute hours of 5:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Additionally, mid -day service is provided on Beat #4 (SR-91, . Magnolia Avenue to 258 60/9.1/215 interchange)' and Beat #18 i1-215, San Bernardino line to Alessandro) due to theirproximity to the 60/91 /215 interchange construction. Contracts fortwo of the beats, Beat #4 and Beat #18,' will expire on June 30;2006`,` and both beats have one final option year remaining.: Staff has contacted Pepe's .. Towing for Beat'' #18 and Tri-City Towing for Beat #4 to..assess "their interest in extending the term of their agreements for an additional year through June 30, 2007. In response, both providers have asked for rate adjustments, due to increased fuel and operational costs realized. Pepe's Towing has asked .for. a $2.00 rate adjustment to "bring the hourly rate per truck to $45.75, and Tri-City Towing has, also asked for a $2.00 rate adjustment to bring the hourly rate per truck to $47.00. Compared;to the other active FSP 'contract rates, these adjusted rates are ,the lowest of the six. Staff is recommending that the last and final option to extend the agreements for one additional: year through June 30, 2007 be exercised with both Tri-City`Towing and Pepe's Towing for Beat #4'and_Beat #18, respectively. All obligations incufred by the Commission under the terms of this award are funded 80%'from State funds and 20% from local SAFE fees apd are subject to continued funding from ;the State' for the Riverside.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City's Bicycle Transportation Plan has been submitted to the Commission for certification that it complies with the requirements of the State Bicycle Lane Account (BLA) program as required by state law. The City has prepared the plan in order to be eligible for a State Bicycle Lane Account grant which may fund a maximum of 90% of the cost of an eligible project(s), and each jurisdiction is eligible to receive up to 25%' of the funds available for any given year. It is the City's intention to submit a proposal to fund the projects listed on page 10 of its 5- year Bicycle Transportation Plan. Commission staff has reviewed the City's Bicycle Transportation Plan and finds that the Plan satisfies the requirements of the BLA program as specified by state law. 264 " AGENDA ITEM 18 " RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: May 22, 2006 TO: Budget and Implementation Committee FROM: John Standiford, Public Affairs Director THROUGH: v Eric Haley, Executive Director SUBJECT: State and Federal Legislative Update " STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Committee to: 1) Approve the following bill positions: HR 5329 (Miller, R-Diamond Bar) SUPPORT AB 2015 (Lieu, D-Redondo Beach)  OPPOSE; and 2) Forward to the Commission for final action. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Federal Update: Congressman. Miller Seeks Funding for State Route (SR) 91 Congressman Gary Miller, who represents portions of San Bernardino, Orange and Los Angeles counties has introduced HR 5329 to 'provide $390 million 'in federal funding for a series of improvements on SR-91 in Orange and Riverside counties. He has sought and received the support of Congressman Calvert for this bill. The improvements include the following projects and funding amounts: " $221.3 million to add one lane in each direction between SR-55 and Riverside County. " $40.7 million to add an auxiliary lane in each direction from SR-241 to SR- 71. " $7.1 million to eliminate a chokepoint caused by CalTrans' truck weigh station. " $56 million to build a direct connector from the 91 Express Toll Lanes to SR- 241. " $65 million to divert truck traffic off the SR-91 freeway by building a freeway -to -freeway connector between Interstate 5 and SR-56, making it an alternative east -west corridor. 265 The: first four projects are ;consistent with publicly, adopted plans and additional federal funding would be welcomed to speed the implementation of these projects. The fifth; project involving SR-56 in "San Diego is somewhat new and unexpected and requires additional scrutiny and analysis. V ` Given the likely processin' Congress, the language .in this bill will be included in another legislative bill and probably, at best, would receive a minimal- amount of t funding.. ,However the benefit of the approach is to have the,projects•and the need for improvements on the SR-91 be enacted in a legislative vehicle to serve as the foundation for the`' future reauthorization for the federal transportation bill which is only a few years into the future. HR 5329 was introduced" in mid -May and has also • Committee Chairman Don Young. State Update: May,Budget'Revise and Air District Governing Board .Bill Amended On Friday, May r` 12, Governor Schwarzenegger unveiled his May revise of the proposed .state budget with additional good news for California: The continuing strength of the 'economy has led to a surge in state revenues that have exceeded • projections by more than $7 billion. What it means for the state will be a reduction in the state budget deficit. This includes the $920 million in early repayment of p g p dollars and the full previous, borrowing that was .done with state: transportation authorization and allocation',of:Proposition 42. With negotiations concluded -regarding the infrastructure bond package, it appears increasingly likely that the' state will approve and adopt,.. ;a budget; in time for the July 1 '.deadline. ,;., SCAQMD Board Bill`` AB 2015 by South Bay; Assemblyman Ted Lieu will add a seat to the South Coast Air Quality: Management District (SCAQMD) Governing Board that would represent primarily cities in the South .Bay region of Los Angeles County. Currently,";cities ..in San, Bernardino, Riverside and, Orange; counties each have one representative on the Governing Board.' Los Angeles County cities have two representatives that are split 4 between the western, and eastern halves of the county. This bill! would create a third Los Angeles County seat that would include ;the western ?.portion „:of Los ". Angeles ;iCounty •but would exclude the city of Los Angeles. s Originally the bill was drafted to add the seat for Los Angeles but to also add additional city seats for Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties. The additional seats for the counties outside of Los Angeles have now been amended out of the bill resulting in one additional seat for Los Angeles County and no corresponding increase for the other counties. The air quality challenges faced by the eastern portion of the South Coast Air Basin are profound and will impact future policy decisions on land use, growth and transportation for decades into the future. The effect of this bill is to actually diminish the influence of the eastern, inland counties while increasing the level of representation for Los Angeles County. From a political ,perspective, Los Angeles County cities other than Los Angeles itself probably have a list of legitimate grievances in terms of regional representation and other territorial squabbles; however, changing the composition of the SCAQMD merely elevates a political dispute while trivializing the important policy issue of air quality. Ordinarily staff does not recommend a position on issues involving other agencies; however, there is a clear nexus between air quality and transportation. A number of other agencies including SCAQMD, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and the city of Moreno Valley have all voted to oppose this bill. Commission staff recommends a similar position mainly because a case has yet to be made that there is anything wrong with the SCAQMD's governance structure and because the proposed change would dilute the influence of Riverside County on the governing board. Other Bills In April the Commission voted to support AB 2630 by local Assemblyman John Benoit which would ease a number of restrictions on cities to obtain Public Utilities Commission funding for railroad grade separations. One troubling aspect of that bill was that it would allow a lessening of the contribution that must be made by the private railroad companies for each project. That troubling aspect of the bill has been amended out and the bill received unanimous approval in the Assembly Transportation Committee. Another bill that was introduced and killed so quickly before the bill could come to the Commission for a position was AB 2621 by Ventura County Assemblywoman Audra Strickland. This bill would have eliminated a portion of the state sales gas tax on gasoline. The Assemblywoman's husband is a statewide candidate and has used the bill for campaign events in a number of areas in the state to capitalize on higher gas prices. It obviously conflicts with the statewide effort to protect Proposition . 42, and it did not -receive approval in the Assembly Revenue and Taxation Committee. 267 RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION `POSITIONS ON STATE AND FEDERAL LEGISLATION - UPDATED xoav12,J0U6 � AB- 426 (Bogh) ' This bill would require Cn|trans to convert. all HD\/ lanes on state on u 34'hour highways in Riverside County that currently 'as basis into part-time H()V lanes that operate um nnixad'f|ovv lanes except during peak periods, subject toany required approvals of the federal government.
