SUBJECT:
Approval of the Partnership Agreement 07-67-041-00 (Formerly
Southern California National. Freight Gateway MOU)
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Approve the Partnership Agreement 07-67-04.1-00 ' (formerly Southern
California National Freight Gateway MOU), pursuant to legal counsel
review; and
2) . Forward to the Commission for final action:
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
At its September 2006 meeting, the Commission -approved. the Southern California
National Freight Gateway MOU, which contemplated_ approval by various agencies
(federal, state, and the southern California transportation commissions). However,
the MOU was not executed. Subsequent discussions with ` US Department of
Transportation and US Environmental Protection Agency have led to a revised
agreement in lieu of the original Southern California National Freight Gateway
MOU.
The resulting Partnership Agreement is shorter and simpler than the earlier
proposed MOU, but it is substantially the same (i.e. documents': agreement for key
agencies to begin to collaborate on the framework strategy to address the
increasing goods movement problems and serious air quality challenges facing
Southern California.) In summary, four points that underlie this Agreement are:
• The work of the group will be to assist in coordination among the affected
agencies and interests to develop an effective strategy for the Southern
California Freight Gateway. While development of the strategy may be
accomplished by .various, more focused initiatives or efforts, it will be a key
function of the Partners to make sure that the products of these various
initiatives are coordinated and come- together as a coherent, effective and
efficient system -wide Framework Strategy for the 'National Freight Gateway.
15
The Partners are not intended to be a superdecision-makers group; decisions ,
are to be left to the formal decision -makers.
There are early key topics that need to be addressed on
These include, among others, the following:
o Air quality. attainment, in light of current efforts ::to develop an Air
Quality Management Plan that will timely achieve PM`2.5 and :Ozone.
standards;
o Funding sources and related institutions (a concern: reflected in .the
-State Goods Movement Action Plan.);
o Prioritization and scheduling of infrastructure projects (including "green
infrastructure") in accordance with a system -wide plan (i.e. Multi -
County ,Goods Movement Action Plan);
o Approaches to address cumulative and system -wide environmental
and community impacts that lead to efficient and timely environmental
compliance and implementation; and
o Development of principles based on the Southern California effort that
might serve as input to the 1909 Commission for inclusion in the next:
reauthorization of the National Transportation Act.
• Federal representation would include USDOT, USEPA Fish and 'Wildlife
Service, National Marine Fisheries Service, and the Army Corps of Engineers;
and
• As various topics are addressed, there is an appreciation that the affected
constituency of agencies and interests should be engaged as. well (e.g.,
private ._interests .such as , ship
pers and railroads ,as well as environmental and
community .interests.)
The Partnership Agreement is anticipated to be _ executed by all parties by next
month. Approval of this Agreement will replace the Southern California National
Freight Gateway MOU: that was never executed.

AGENDA ITEM 9
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
April 23,.2007
TO:
Plans and Programs Committee
FROM:
Tanya Love, Program Manager
THROUGH:
Stephanie Wiggins, Regional Programs Director
SUBJECT:
FY 2006/07 Short Range Transit Plan Amendment:
Commuter Rail
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Allocate $3,523,775 in State Transit Assistance (STA) and $567,714
in Local Transportation Funds (LTF) to serve as local match to
previously allocated Congestion MitigationAir Quality (CMAQ) funds
for the parking structure at the North Main -Corona Station;
2) Allocate $180,000 in LTF funds to cover the costs of parking
.relocation;
3) Amend the FY 2006/07 Commuter Rail Program's Short Range Transit
Plan (SRTP) to reflect the additional funding allocations for the project;
and
4) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Rail Program is requesting approval to amend its FY 2006/07 Commuter Rail
Short Range Transit Plan as follows:
North Main Corona Parking Structure
The North Main Corona .Metrolink Parking Structure was approved in 2002 for
$1 1 million of 'State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) Interregional
Improvement Program (IIP) funds. To date, $1.5 million has been allocated for
environmental and design work.. The remaining $9.5 million is .programmed for
construction. The design ::phase includes the development - of plans for three
different parking structure configurations (A, B, C).
22
At its September '14, 2006 meeting, the Commission approvedbuilding parking
structure C at the North Main Corona Station as it yielded the highest number. ; of
:,. spaces at '1,443-(1,098 structure + 345 east lot) to meet the demand indicated in
the ridership forecast.. Future plans for building parking structures Aand B will. be .
brought back to the Commission at a later time.
The design phase is near completion and construction costs for parking structure` C
are estimated at $29,592,000. To complete the funding plan for the .parking
structure the following .is requested:
1) Amend the FY 2006/07 SRTP to reflect the allocation of $24.5 million
in CMAQ funding which was approved at the February 14 2007
Com`mission meeting. Because ongoing discussions are taking place:
on whether or not the CMAQ funds should be flex transferred: to the
FTA Section 5307 program, it is possible that . a. program'of :projects
will be presented at a later meeting; and
2) Fund the local match requirement of $4,091,489. Staff recommends
that $3,523,775 of STA funds and $567,714 of LTF 'funds be
allocated as the local match.
Parking Relocation Strategy
Currently, the Commission is developing the following options fora. parking.
relocation strategy to offset the 239 parking spaces that will be lost during ;the 18
month construction period:
1) . Encourage riders to use the Commission subsidized free . transit
connections provided by the Riverside . Transit Agency and Corona
Cruiser;
2) Encourage riders to use the West Corona and: La Sierra, stations, both
of which have, existing capacity and security and
3) Pursue local satellite parking Lots within a three °mile radius of the:.. .
North Main Corona Station as a backup to. the first two strategies. .
Commission staff is working closely with the city of Corona to identify
potential locations for a satellite facility. To cover the anticipated
lease . and Corona Cruiser shuttle ,service costs, staff is requesting an
allocation of $180,000 in LTF funds. .

REVISION TO AGENDA ITEM 10
THE ITEM IS THREE PAGES
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
April 23, 2007
TO:
Plans and Programs Committee
FROM:
Tanya Love, Program Manager
THROUGH:
Stephanie Wiggins, Regional Programs Director
SUBJECT:
Citizens' Advisory Committee/Social Services
Advisory Council
Transportation
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
1) Appoint Fortunato Penilla to the Commission's Citizens' Advisory
Committee/Social Services Transportation Advisory Council
(CAC/SSTAC);
2) Seek candidate names from Commissioners as to potential appointments
to the CAC/SSTAC; and
3) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Staff is requesting the appointment of Fortunato Penilla as a new member to the
Commission's CAC/SSTAC. Mr. Penilla is retired from Inland Regional Center
where he served as the Transportation Coordinator. For the past few years, he has
actively attended CAC/SSTAC meetings providing assistance with various work
efforts including the annual review of the Federal Transit Administration's Section
5310 program. As shown on the attached roster, there are currently nine
CAC/SSTAC members.
Initial appointments to the CAC/SSTAC are staggered with members appointed to
one, two and three year terms. Once initial appointments are made, a subsequent
renewal can be made for a three year term. Because several of the existing
CAC/SSTAC members have been on the committee for over six years, staff is
seeking recommendations from the Commissioners for potential members.
Members of the Social Services Transportation Advisory Council shall be appointed
by the Transportation Planning Agency (TPA). Candidates shall be recruited from a
broad representation of social service and transit providers representing the elderly,
the handicapped, and persons of limited means. The Commission is the TPA for
Riverside County. In appointing council members, the TPA shall strive to attain
geographic and minority representation among council members.
Transportation Development Act Requirements Related to CAC/SSTAC
The Transportation Development Act (TDA) provides direction for administering
both Local Transportation Funds (LTF) and State Transit Assistance (STA) funds.
Both fund types are used to support operating and capital costs for public
transportation. Section 99238 of the TDA requires that the Commission have a
CAC/SSTAC consisting of categorical memberships as follows:
1) One representative of a potential transit user who is 60 years of age
or older;
2) One representative of a potential transit user who is handicapped;
3) Two representatives of the local social service providers for seniors,
including one representative of a social service transportation provider,
if one exists;
4) Two representatives of local social service providers for the
handicapped, including one representative of a social service
transportation provider, if one exists;
5) One representative of a local social service provider for persons of
limited means;
6) Two representatives from the local consolidated transportation service
agency, designated pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 15975 of
the Government Code, if one exists, including one representative from
an operator, if one exists;
7) The Transportation Planning Agency may appoint additional members.
For the past several years, staff has requested CAC/SSTAC's participation in
reviewing Transit Operators' Short Range Transit Plans, the testimony of the
Commission's Unmet Transit Needs Hearing, the SB 821 Bicycle and Pedestrian
Facilities Program and the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Section 5310
Program. In addition, for FY 2007/08, at least one member of the CAC/SSTAC will
serve on the Technical Advisory Group assisting with the development of the
Coordinated Plan for Public Transit -Human Services as part of the SAFETEA-LU
requirements.
