BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Measure A requires each recipient of local streets and roads monies to annually provide to the Commission a five-year plan on how those funds are to be expended in order to receive its Measure A disbursements. In addition, the Coachella Valley and Western County cities and the county must participate in either the Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG) or Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG) Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) program. The agencies are also required to submit an annual certification of maintenance of effort (MOE) along with documentation supporting the calculation. The CIP for the city of Palm Springs (City) was approved by the Commission at its July 11, 2007 meeting. Any revisions to the adopted plan must be returned to the Commission for approval. The City applied for and received grant funding for the signal at Indian Canyon Drive/Tamarisk Road. Therefore, the City is requesting to amend its FY 2007/08 CIP to move funding from the Indian/Tamarisk signal project to the next project on its priority list, the Sunrise Way at Alejo Road signal project.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The FY '2007/08 budget for the 'Finance Department includes the goal to develop and maintain an organization accountability program encompassing financial and operational functions. One of the initiatives related to this goal is the implementation of an internal audit program. The initial focus of the internal audit program is a business risk analysis and assessment that will result in the development of an audit plan. All departments and operations will be evaluated during the risk assessment phase. Areas assessed as high or medium risk- are projects that are likely to be considered in .the development of the . audit plan Commission management and the Audit Ad Hoc Committee will have significant irivolvement in the review of the risk assessment, development, and final approval of an audit -plan with the internal auditor. Agenda Item 8 15 In addition to the core internal audit activity related to financial and operational audits, other projects that may be required periodically include construction and engineering audits, investigative reviews, contract closeouts, special reviews, .and administrative assistance. Based on the, depth of resources that would be required for .such an internal audit program, staff released a request for proposal (RFP) for internal audit services on July 12, 2007. The Calendar of Events was as follows: Distribution of RFP Pre -Proposal Conference Proposals were Delivered to Commission Prior to 2 p. Evaluation Committee Review of Proposals Interviews Held for Short -Listed Firms Selection Process July :12, 2007 August 1, 2007 August 27, 2007 September 6 2007 . September 17, 2007 Staff received seven proposals by the required date and time. An evaluation panel consisting of Commission finance and program staff as well as a Metro'link finance representative reviewed the proposals based on qualifications of the firm staffing and project organization, work plan, cost and price, and completeness of response. After the review of the proposals, the evaluation panel determined that four firms submitted high quality proposals and invited those firms for interviews on September 17, 2007. During the interviews, the evaluation panel carefully ,considered the personnel .of the proposed project: team, understanding of the services ° required by the. Commission and demonstrated capacity to complete the proposed scope of work. As it relates to the primary focus of the internal audit program for a risk assessment andaudit plan,the panel ranked the four interviewed' firmsas follows: Top Ranked KPMG LLP Second Deloitte Third' Thompson, Cobb, Bazilio & Associates, P.C. Fourth Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. Accordingly, :staff recommends the award of Agreement No. 08-1.9-028-00 to KPMG LLP for internal audit services. Since staff anticipates an increased need for other internal audit services related to construction and engineering awards and contract close-outs as well as other Agenda Item 8 16 " reviews and assistance, the panel ranked the four firms for on -call internal audit services as follows: Top Ranked Thompson, Cobb, Bazilio & Associates, P.C. Second Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. Third KPMG LLP Fourth Deloitte Staff recommends that on -call internal audit services be awarded to the three top ranked firms. Therefore, staff recommends the award of Agreement No.08-19-029-00 to Thompson, Cobb, Bazilio & Associates, P.C.; Agreement No. 08-19-030-00 to Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C.; and the award of Agreement No. 08-19-028-00, including the internal audit services discussed previously, to KPMG LLP. As on -call internal audit services are required, a proposed scope of work will be presented to each firm for a cost and work plan proposal. The most responsive firm will be awarded a task order. These three agreements are anticipated to be three-year contracts with two one-year options. At this time, staff is negotiating the terms and cost with the firms and expects to bring final contracts to the Commission meeting. The FY 2007/08 budget includes expenditures of $150,000 for internal audit services. Due to the anticipated increase in project related contracts, staff recommends an increase in budgeted expenditures of $50,000 for contract and other audits.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The 2009 Measure A identified $300 million over the life of the measure to fund regional arterial projects in Western County. The intent of this program is to fund capacity enhancements that are identified on the Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) backbone network including roadways specifically listed in the ordinance and included in the call for projects (Attachment 1). The 2009 Measure A Western County Regional Arterial funds are also intended to complement TUMF backbone funded projects where additional TUMF funding above the eligibility amount may be needed. Measure A Regional Arterial funds are not meant to replace committed TUMF or local funding. The 2009 Measure A call for projects was developed by staff and a subcommittee of the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). The subcommittee reviewed prior calls for projects as a basis to develop the Western County Regional Arterial call for projects. The schedule for the call for projects is as follows: TAC Approval Commission Approval Release of Call for Projects Deadline for Project Applications Convene TAC for Project Evaluations Commission Approval of. Selected Projects for Funding Agenda Item 9 18 September 17, 2007 October 10, 2007 October 17, 2007 December 15, 2007 January, 2008 February, 2008 Agencies will be allowed to . submit three projects each. The countyof Riverside will be allowed to :submit three projects per supervisorial district. The target date for implementation of the approved projects is by 2015. While the funding source for the selected projects is 2009 Measure, A Western County Regional Arterial funds, it may be necessary to issue debt to 'finance these projects. Some projects may commence prior to the July 1, 2009 effective date of the 2009 Measure A; therefore, an increase in the commercial paper program amount may be necessary to advance projects that are ready before the 2009 Measure A begins. Additionally, the Call for Projects is based on the $300 million of revenues expected to be generated over the 30-year term of the 2009 Measure A; however, the implementation date for the selected projects is by 2015. Accordingly, it may be necessary to issue long-term debt to finance the costs of these projects that will be completed during the first 10-year period of the 2009 Measure A. Finally, the financing of all or part of the $300 million may have a significant impact on the $ 500 million debt limitation for the 2009 Measure A. The intent of this call for projects is to program the entire $300 million 2009 Measure A Western County Regional Arterial funds and implement the approved` projects within the first 10 years of the 2009 Measure A. The fiscal impact of the call for projects on the 2009 Measure. A Western County Regional Arterial program is uncertain, and the estimated cost of the approved projects cannot be determined until all project submittals are evaluated. Financial Information In Fiscal Year Budget: N/A Year: FY 2009-2015 Amount: $300,000,000 Source of Funds: 2009 Measure A Regional Arterial Budget Adjustment: N/A GLA No.: 266 72 81 XXX Fiscal Procedures Approved: ,14"wn Date: 09/19/2007 Attachment: Draft; 2009 Measure A Western County Regional Arterials $300 Million Call for Projects Agenda Item 9 19 " - DRAFT - 2009: MEASURE A VVESTERN COUNTY REGIONAL ARTERIALS $300 MILLION CALL FOR PROJECTS The 2009 Measure A included a category of funding for the Regional Arterial System. The Regional Arterial System component is described in Ordinance 02-001 as follows: "The freeway and state highway system can no longer be expected to handle the traffic demands for travel between and through the cities of the Western County. area, with the development projected for the future. A system of regional arterials (major local roadways) with limited access, freeway interchanges, grade separations, and coordinated traffic signals are needed to supplement the highway backbone system. The Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG), in conjunction with the cities and the County; has developed this system of roadways to meet this need. This roadway system will be periodically updated by the Commission, or the WRCOG, to reflect actual development trends. Funding to widen existing roads and construct new roads on this system will be funded by an estimated $300 million in revenues generated by Measure A and by matching revenues to be generated by the cities and County implementing a Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) administered by the Commission or the WRCOG. Examples of the roadways on the regional arterial system that may be eligible to receive Measure A and TUMF funding for widening and other improvements to increase capacity and traffic flow are: " Van Buren Blvd from 1-215 to SR-60 " Alessandro Blvd from 'I-215 westerly to Central Ave " Central Ave from Alessandro Blvd to Van Buren Blvd " Arlington Ave from Central Ave to Van Buren Blvd " Green River Rd from Dominguez Ranch Rd to SR-91 " Foothill Parkway from Lincoln Ave to Green River Rd " Scott Rd from SR-79 to I-215 " Clinton Keith Rd from SR-79 to 1-215 " Date Street from SR-79 to t-15 " SR-79/1-10 Interchange Improvements and possible bypass to 1-10 " Ramsey St from Banning City Limits to Field Rd " Ramona Expressway from San Jacinto to 1-215 " Cajalco Rd from 1-215 to t-15 " Perris Blvd from SR-74 to San Bernardino Co Line " Pyrite. Street from San Bernardino County Line to SR-60 _ 20 - DRAFT - Schleisman Rd from San Bernardino County tine to 1-15 and Arlington Avenue Domenigoni Pkwy from State St to 1-215 Railroad Canyon/Newport Road from 1-215 to I-15 The final scope and project limits of all improvements proposed for the regional arterial system will be determined through noticed public hearings, environmental clearance process, and agreement with affected agencies." Project Eligibility ,and Basic Assumptions: Projects listed in the Measure A ballot and/or included in the "backbone". TUMF network are eligible for this Call for Projects. Measure A Regional Arterial funding should not replace already committed TUMF or Local funds. A local fund commitment is represented as funds. appropriated in the agency's annual budget that is adopted by the council/board. It is the 'intention of the Regional Arterial program to match the Measure funds on a dollar for dollar (50%) basis. However, projects will still be eligible if the match is lesser than 50%. More points will be given to projects with higher match rates. • Agencies may submit up to three (3) project applications. The County of Riverside may submit up to three (3) project applications per supervisorial district. The target construction date for projects that are approved under this call for projects is 2015. Projects must demonstrate that they can begin construction by 2015. RCTC will monitorproject progress and will rescind fund allocations if reasonable progress is not being made. Measure ,A Regional Arterial funds will be made available for ALL project phases (PA&ED, PS&E, R/W, and Construction).: • RCTC staff will review project schedules to determine if they are reasonably feasible. Adjustments to schedules may be made by RCTC` staff for programming purposes where appropriate. The Scope of Work under this call for projects is for capacity enhancements. Rehabilitation and maintenance work/costs. are not eligible for Measure A Regional Arterial funds. 'Work activities that are part of and within the limits of a capacity enhancement project (e.g. 21 " - DRAFT rehabilitation/overlays, curb gutter, sidewalk, etc.) are eligible project costs. Landscaping, irrigation, and other "softscape" activities are not eligible. " Projects funded by the Measure A Regional Arterial program will continue to be included in the TUMF calculation to ensure that Measure funding does not replace TUMF funding.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The attached letter from the city of Palm Springs (City), dated September 4, 2007, is requesting additional federal. STP funding on the Gene Autry Trail Railroad 'Bridge project. This project was originally approved for 2002 State Transportation Improvement Program discretionary funding and was subsequently reprogrammed with federal STP funding due to the state budget crisis that began in 2003. As indicated in the City's letter, this project has experienced extenuating circumstances in delivery. The original project estimate was developed in 2000. Due to inflation costs and the spike in construction materials over the Last few years the project costs increased 71.3%, from $2.2 million to $3,768,600. Another -issue the City encountered was related to the timing of the Union 'Pacific Railroad's additional main line track improvement, which will also require the City to construct a reinforced concrete wall section in the amount of $1.5 million. Lastly, the Palm Drive/Gene Autry interchange project will connect to the City's project and will require an elevated road profile, which was not known at the time the project was submitted for funding. The cost associated with the profile is $500,000. The City will also be required to delay its project until after the start of construction of the interchange project. Total cost increases of $3,568,600 result in a total project cost of $5,768,600. Agenda Item 10 . 28 The City is requesting an increase of $2,498,020 to the original STP funds of $ 1.54 million for a total of $4,038,020. The City will maintain the same federal/local. share (70% federal and 30% local) funding split with the City funding contribution of $1, 730, 580. This request was presented and approved at the September 17, 2007 TAC meeting. Staff recommends support for the increase in STP funds given the unforeseen extenuating circumstances. Due to project delays, there is capacity to add STP funding to this project.

P. Q. Box 12008 Riverside, CA 92502-2208 ECEROVIE SEP 072007 RIVERSIDE COUMY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION Re: Gene Autry Trail Railroad Bridge Project, City Project #01-04 Dear Shirley; Pursuant to my recent conversation with Anne Mayer and our email correspondence, we are continuing to proceed with completion of the plans and specifications for the referenced project. The RT1P number for the project is RIV 010213. This project originally was a STIP Funded project, but was moved over to.STPL Funding several -years ago when.RCTC did'&number of transfers. The original discretionary grant funding had a federal amount of $1,540,000 which represented 70% of the cost estimate. at the time. , Since that time the following has. occurred: 1. Cost increases per the Caltrans Bridge Construction Cost Index, inflation of costs froth 2000 to 2006 equals .71.3%. This represents a cost of $1,568,000 to the original $2.2million project. 2. The Union Pacific Railroad is moving forward with its additional main line track and are requiring the piers adjacent to the track be constructed with an entire in -fill wall protection. This represents an increase of $1.5million to construct the reinforced concrete wall section. Further; the railroad informs us that they will be going to bid within one month and will not allow our work_ on this bridge while their contract : is under way. Therefore, barring any delays in ,the railroad project, it appears we will be forced to wait until the railroad project has completed their work in the area of Gene Autry Trail. We will then be required, in addition to the walls mentioned above, to provide additional false work and flagmen at our projects' expense, for protection from this active third rail line. 3. The Palm Drive/Gene Autry interchange Design is elevating the road profile of Gene Autry Trail from the Railroad Bridge,to I-10 by several feet. This profile was not known at the time of application for Federal _ Funding for the Railroad Bridge, .but represents an increase of about $500,000 for additional roadway approach fill and construction.: The total increases to the construction costs, represented by the above three items is $3,568,600, bringing the total estimate to $5,768,600. Post Office Box 2743 ' Palm Springs, California 92263-2743 30 Shirley Medina, RCTC GAT Bridge Widening, CP#01-04 Page 2 l am requesting that you place a request for additional STPL Funding on the TAC Agenda, and should a favorable recommendation come forward from the TAC, on to the Commission Agenda. This request is an increase in . STPL Funding of $2,498,020 to the current federal amount of $1,540,000 resulting in a total federal funding amount of $4,038,020 which represents the same 70% federal share for the new cost estimate. Please let me know when this can be placed on the TAC Agenda, such that the project milestone report can be updated to reflect the revised funding and the IMP amended. Sincerely, David J.

Agenda Item 11 32 BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Summary At its July 12, 2006 meeting, the Commission approved the award of Agreement' No. 07-31-039-00 to LAN for the development of the PS&E for the construction of two new high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane structures at the l 215/SR-60 "East: Junction", between Box Springs overcrossing and Day Street : undercrossing. This ;project is necessary to close the gap that will exist between. the SR-60 HOV lanes recently constructed by the Commission in Moreno Valley and the HOV lanes on the SR-60/1-215 being constructed as part of the Caltrans design sequencing project on 1-215. This gap was created when, due to budget constraints, elements of . Segment 7 construction were deleted from the design sequencing project. In recent months, Caltrans has requested that additional Segment 7 elements` (defined in Attachment 1) be deferred from the design sequencing project to the 1-215/SR-60 East Junction project. Inclusion of these additionalelements requires adjustment to both the design and construction budgets as well as the existing`: design contract with LAN. All of the subject scope of work for this I-21 5/SR-60 ;. East . Junction project was addressed in the environmental impact report/environmental impact statement (EIR/EIS) developed for the 1-215 Design Sequencing project. 1-215 Design Sequencing and, 1-215/SR-60 East Junction Projects The project report for the SR-60/SR-91 /1-215 (EA 08-466902) design sequencing ; project, dated April 27, 2001, .was segmented into seven parts. Segment 7 of the project included two, pairs of HOV connectors at the East Junction; ._o one pair of connectors was to be_ between the west and east legs of the interchange and the other pair between the west and south legs. Due to funding : constraints, Segment 7 could not be constructed at the same time as the other six segments, which are currently under construction. Caltrans and the Commission agreed to split the work included in Segment 7 into two separate projects; the 1-215/SR-60 East Junction HOV connector project and a subsequent project to deliver the balance of the Segment 7. work. Staff' and Caltrans reviewedthe remaining. Segment 7 work and determined that .it would be beneficial to the public and adjacent cities to proceed with the design and construction of .some portions as part of the I-215/SR-60 East Junction HOV connector project. Agenda, Item 11 33 " The design sequencing elements and portions of the Segment 7 project proposed to be included with the 1-215/SR-60 East Junction project have already been environmentally cleared as part of the 1-215 design sequencing project. These elements are listed in Attachment 1 as additional project scope. The benefits that will result by designing and constructing these elements as part of the .I-215/SR-60 East Junction project are: " " " " Improved traffic flow on the west bound SR-60; Traffic congestion will be addressed on Box Springs Road; A reduction of "throw away" items of work, (e.g. pavement, guardrail, ramp realignment, etc.) if the original project scope was constructed; Reduction in the amount of time the west bound .Box Springs off ramp is closed for realignment; and Northbound (westbound 60) Box Springs ramp will be constructed in its ultimate location. If these: portions. of the Segment 7 project are not designed and constructed as part of the 1-215/SR=60 East Junction project, a future environmental re-evaluation may be required A potential re-evaluation of the environmental document would delay the improvernents, and such a delay could have an impact on cost. n order to implement this project in the minimum amount of time, the Commission has requested that Ca!trans and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) delegate the authority to allow the Commission to advertise, award, and administer the construction package. Funding/Budget Background At its June 5, 2005 meeting, the Commission approved programming of $2.5 million in funding ($2,213,250 of federal CMAQ program funds and $286,750 of Measure A funds) . for the design of the I-215/SR-60 fast Junction project. In addition, approximately $28.8 million in State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) funding was committed for construction consisting of $20.733 million in STIP Interregional Improvement Program (IIP) funds and $8.117 million in STIP Region Improvement Program (RIP).. At its September 12, 2007 Commission meeting, an additional $4 million was approved for the right-of-way phase for a total project budget of $35.35 million. An amendment :to the project budget and consultant contract is necessary to incorporate the additional design sequencing Segment 7 elements and associated right-of-way , engineering, which were not identified and included in the original Agreement No. 07=31-039-00. Theadditional scope is detailed in Attachment 1. Agenda Item 1.1 - 34 The revised project estimate is $55.742 million, which reflects an estimated project cost increase of '$20.392 million due to this additional scope. The revised budget is detailed in Attachment 2. Funding for the 1-215/SR-60 East Junction project is proposed as follows;: PS&E Design CMAQ 1989 Measure A (match) $3,895,320 504,680 Total $4,400,000 Reflects proposed PS&E increase of $1.9 million (total from $2.5 $4.4 million) Right -of -Way *CMAQ 1989 Measure A (match) $3,541,2`00 458,800 Total $4000,000 *The right-of-way phase was approved at September. 12, 2007 Commission meeting. The amount of funds approved for CMAQ was $4 million. This agenda item corrects the CMAQ funds for the right-of-way phase to $3,541,200. The Measure A funds of $458,800 were approved correctly. Construction/Construction Support STIP-IIP $20,733,000 STP-R1P 8,117,000 **Federal STP and/or CMAQ CMAQ 18,492,000 Total $47,342,000 **Staff is proposing to fund the uncommitted constructionarnount with federal funding sources such as Surface Transportation Program (STP) and/or CMAQ, whichever funding source is available. Construction estimates are currently being refined and will be brought back to the Commission at a later date. At its January 11, 2006 meeting, the Commission approved the :programming for : the 2006.STIP and reaffirmed its commitment to maintain funding for the 1-215/SR 60 East Junction project. Therefore, staff recommends that the Budget and Implementation Committee approve the additional scope for the project, the revised Agenda Item 1 1 35 " " " project budget of $55.742 million, and Amendment No. 1 with LAN for the incorporation of the additional project scope as detailed in Attachment 1. LAN has developed a revised scope, schedule, and cost summary for the I-215/SR-60 East Junction project, which is included in Attachment 3. The total project cost for the proposed scope of work for Amendment No. 1 is $1.9 million. This will bring the total project not to exceed contract value (including the original agreement for $2.5 million and Amendment No. 1 for $1.9 million) to $4.4 million for the PS&E phase. The $1.9 million is proposed to be funded by $1.682 million of CMAQ funds and $218,000 of Measure A as local match.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Commission is the owner and operator of ` five Metrolink stations in Riverside County. Station cleaning and grounds maintenance services are an important component in attracting the Metrolink rider as well as preserving the property investments of the Commission. In June 2007, the Commission authorized staff! to release a request for proposals (RFP) for cleaning and grounds maintenance services for the Commission -owned and operated Metrolink stations. Calendar of Events Distribution of RFP Deadline for Proposal Submittal by 2:00 p.m. Interviews of all Proposers June 26, 2007 July 24, 2007 August 14, 2007 Consideration by Budget and Implementation Committee September 24, 2007 Commission Approval of Selection October 10, 2007 Agenda Item 13 45 Selection Process Staff received proposals from four firms. A selection panel was assembled, which consisted of representatives from the Commission staff, Metrolin'k. and Bechtel. The selection panel reviewed all proposals and concluded that all four firms would ' be invited to be interviewed by the selection panel. The criteria used by the selection panel were based on qualifications of the firm, staffing and project organization, work plan, cost and price, and completeness of response. The evaluation panel ranked the four firms as follows: Top Ranked Spotless Janitorial Services . Second Jefferson Transitional Programs Third Woods Maintenance Services, Inc Fourth Kims Cleaning Service After careful :evaluation of the ;proposals based on the criteria stated in the ,RFP, the panel selected SJS as the top ranked company qualified to provide station cleaning and grounds maintenance services. SJS, as the most responsive bidder, demonstrates a high quality of service with proactive management and a clear understanding of the maintenance of the Metrolink stations. Based on the results of the selection panel, staff recommends the ' contract be awarded . to SJS for the cleaning and grounds maintenance of the Metrolink stations. Cost will be based on a firm fixed price and the term of the contract is three years with two one-year contract extension options to be exercised at the sole discretion of the Commission.

Agenda Item 13 46 AGENDA ITEM 14 " RIVERS/DE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: September 24, 2007 TO: Budget and Implementation Committee FROM: Aaron Hake, Staff Analyst John Standiford, 'Public Affairs Director THROUGH: Eric Haley, Executive Director SUBJECT: State and Federal Legislative .Update STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Committee to: 1) Adopt an OPPOSE UNLESS AMENDED position on SB 974 (Lowenthal); 2) Adopt proposed amendments to SB 974 and authorize staff to transmit the amendments to state leaders; 3) Approve a priority list of projects for funding by any container fee revenue; 4) Adopt an OPPOSE position on the following federal bills: a) S.2019 (Hutchison, R-Texas); and b) H.R. 3510 (Peterson, R-Pennsylvania) 5) Adopt a SUPPORT position of the SR-241 Foothill South toll road extension; 6) Receive and file the State and Federal Legislative Status Report; and 7) Forward to the Commission for final action. State Legislative Update SB 974 (Lowenthal) - Container Fees The final weeks of the legislative session included a flurry of activity surrounding goods movement. As the Assembly held up a Senate bill to implement the Trade Corridor Improvement fund (TGIF), focus quickly shifted to legislation _regarding container fees. Commission staff and representatives were involved in negotiations on bill language that would have committed at least $600 million of container fee revenue to grade separations in Riverside County. While remaining neutral on the legal and policy merits of a legislated container fee, Commission representatives sought to maximize Riverside County's benefit from any bill dealing with revenue for goods movement projects. Agenda Item 14 47 These efforts were put on hold when Senator Alan Lowenthal (D-Long Beach), the authorof the container` fee legislation, and Governor Schwarzenegger reached an _ agreement to put the bill aside and work together over the fall on the issue:. Looming in the backdrop was the prospect of the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach unveiling an agreement with the private sector on a voluntary . container premium that could supplant ,the need for a legislated container fee if Riverside County grade separations are adequately funded. A day later, amendments were made to Senator LLowenthal's bill without guaranteed funding for Riverside County while creating a regionally imbalanced joint powers authority responsible for allocating container fee revenue. While acknowledging Senator Low.enthal's expressed intentions to serve the needs of: Riverside .County, staff finds the current version of the bill, SB` 974, to be problematic. Further, staff believes that it is .important for the Commission to register a position on SB 974 ahead of discussions in Sacramento this fall. While it is likely that a legislated container fee will be tied up in courts for years before it is implemented and the prospects of a Governor's veto loom large, the Commission and its allies should seek to. remain active in any dialogue over new revenue for goods movement projects from any source. further, the Commission's official participation in bills such ,as SB 974. can inform the negotiations surrounding voluntary private container premiums and other funding sources. Therefore, staff has provided as an attachment to this item a summary and ;analysis of SB 974, as well as a recommended position and amendments that would better recognize the goods movement priorities of Riverside County. Based on the attached analysis of SB 974 as amended on September' 5 2007, staff recommends the Commission adopt an OPPOSE UNLESS AMENDED position on the bill. Further, staff recommends the Commission adopt the amendments' and project list contained in the attachment and relay them to state leaders who will be involved in crafting SB 974 this fall and next year. End -of -Session Recap of Commission -Sponsored Bills The Commission was very active in the 2007 legislative session, sponsoring two bills, which would ultimately require an additional year of work . in the capitol. The Commission- partnered with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) to co-sponsor AB 1295, authored by Assemblyman Todd Spitzer. The purpose. of the bill is to -allow OCTA tomodify the franchise which governs the express lanes on SR-91 :so that the Commission can proceed with extending the . express lanes into Riverside County, and to authorize the Commission to collect tolls on the Riverside County extension. Reflecting the two counties' continuing alliance, elected officials and staff worked throughout the session with Mr. Spitzer to advance the legislation. :The bill cleared the Assembly Transportation Committee with the help of Chairman Pedro Nava Agenda Item 14 48 (D-Santa Barbara), but "stalled in Assembly Appropriations Committee. Both agencies continue to . work with members of the legislature to allow much needed improvements to SR-91 to go' forward. On a concurrent path, authorization for planned express lanes on Interstate 15 continues to move forward with the California Transportation Commission (CTC). The 1-15 project will be approved through a processestablished in 2006 by Speaker Fabian Nunez's AB 1467. The Speaker's bill calls for the CTC to .develop eligibility criteria for four new high occupancy toll (HOT). lane projects. Following CTC's finding of eligibility, the 1.15 project will require separate legislation to finalize the Commission's authority to move forward, which the Commission intends to seek in 2008. Finally, the Commission sought legislation to enhance the delivery of the Perris Valley Line (PVL) Metrolink extension. Assemblyman John Benoit (R=Palm Desert) authored AB 1240 to authorize the Commission to utilize existing contracting authority available to transit agencies throughout California, including the Southern California Regional Rail Authority (SCRRA). The legislation stalled when public employee unions opposed the bill. The Commission continues to work with Assemblyman Benoit and SCR'RA to shape a_ proposal that will enable the Commission to better deliver the PVL. Relinquishment of SR-79 and SR-111 Awaits Governor's Decision A bill authored .by Senator Jim Battin (R-La Quinta) to relinquish portions of SR-79 and SR-1 1 1 to the cities of Temecula, San Jacinto and Hemet and La Quinta, Indian Wells, Indio and Palm Desert respectively, is now on the Governor's desk. This bill would provide cities with greater local control in setting transportation priorities for their residents: Federal Legislative Update Senate Approves Transportation Appropriations Before recessing for religious holidays in mid September, the U.S. Senate approved the FY 2008 transportation appropriations bill. The bill includes funding for key Comrnission priorities: • PVL Metrolink Extension: $3 million from Senator Feinstein; and • Alameda Corridor East grade separations in the city of Riverside: $1 million from Senators Boxer. and Feinstein. The House of -Representatives approved its version of the FY 2008 transportation appropriations bill in June; the two chambers will next hold conference to work out differences between the two bills before sending a final product to the President's desk. Agenda Item 14 49 However, the final bill will likely spend more than President Bush has requested in his proposed FY 2008 budget, which sets -up a possible veto from the President. Texas Senators Introduce Legislation Prohibiting Toll Programs on Interstate Highways Republican .Senators Kay Bailey Hutchison and John Cornyn of Texas have introduced S.201.:9 in the U.S. Senate to prohibit the implementation of new tolling programs on highways built : using federal funds. Although the Senators are responding to developments in Texas regarding that state's aggressive direction towards _privatizing infrastructure,if enacted S.2019 could inhibit the Commission's implementation of planned express lanes on :1-15. Absent a larger legislative vehicle such as a federal transportation reauthorization bill, it will be difficult for S.2019 to move forward; the bill could :also merely be a tool for political posturing. Nonetheless, due to its potential adverse impact on the Commission's adopted delivery plans, staff recommends the Commission adopt an OPPOSE position on S.2019. Representative John Peterson (R-Pennsylvania) has also introduced mirroring legislation in the ' House of Representatives, likely in response to that state's desire to toll` 1-80. For the same reasons as S.2019, staff recommends an OPPOSE position to H.R. 3510. Staff suggests that these bills' authors could amend the legislation to be limited in scope to interstate highways in their home states or exclude the tolling of new capacity from prohibition. Transportation Corridor Agencies Request Commission Support of SR-241 Extension At the August 2007 meeting of the. Budget and Implementation Committee, members of the committee moved to withhold recording a position on the proposed extension of the SR-241 toll road in South Orange County. The committee cited concerns about taking positions on projects in other counties and setting a precedent of interfering in politically controversial issues outside of the Commission's jurisdiction. Commission staff has since received formal written correspondence from the Transportation Corridor Agencies. (TCA), which is the lead agency on the SR-241 extension project, requesting the Commission's support of the project. OCTA has also officially supported the project. > At the request of Commissioner Jeff Miller, who is Chairman of the bkounty State Route 91 Advisory Committee, staff has returned to the Committee with a recommendation to support the extension of the SR-241 toll road. Concern over the future of the project has been heightened in recent months as a provision has been inserted in the House version of the FY 2008 defense appropriations Agenda (tern 114 • • 50 " " " act, which would eliminate an easement from the federal government which is needed to complete the project. Congressmen Ken Calvert (R-Corona) and Darrel Issa (R-Vista) have been high profile supporters of the project and leaders against the amendment to the defense bill. Additionally, the project's website indicates over 8,000 individual Southern California residents have officially registered their support for the extension. Attachments: 1) SB 974 (Lowenthal) Summary, Analysis, Amendments, Project List 2) Correspondence from TCA 3) OCTA Letter of Support for SR-241 4) Legislative Matrix Agenda Item 14 51 " " SB 974 (Lowenthal) Summary, Analysis, Proposed Amendments, and Project List Summary Senate Bill 974 (Lowenthal) imposes a $30 per twenty -foot equivalent (TEU) container fee on each container processed through the ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach and Oakland. The intent of the container fee is to generate new revenue for projects that mitigate against air quality and infrastructure impacts of increasing trade volumes through the ports. Considering the high impact on Riverside County of goods moving along the Alameda Corridor East, especially at at -grade crossings, the container fee proposed in SB 974 is a potential funding source for the Commission's prioritized program of grade separations. SB 974 authorizes the container fee to be levied at both San Pedro Bay ports beginning January 1, 2009..The revenue is to be collected by each port and remitted in equal halves to two separate funds. Half of the revenue will be dedicated to the "San Pedro Bay Ports Mitigation Relief Trust Fund," which will be available for expenditure by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) for the purposes of mitigating. air pollution caused by the movement of container cargo to and from the ports. The other half of the revenue will be dedicated to the "San Pedro Bay Ports Congestion Relief Trust Fund." This fund will be available for expenditure by a new joint -powers authority created by SB 974, named the Southern California Goods Movement Authority. The exclusive purpose of the congestion relief fund is for funding infrastructure projects that improve the flow and efficiency of container cargo to and from the ports. SB 974 explicitly states that at -grade crossings on the Alameda Corridor East in Riverside, San Bernardino, Orange, and Los Angeles Counties are eligible for funding from the congestion relief trust fund, as well as Colton Crossing, on -dock infrastructure at the ports, and rail capacity enhancements that do not disproportionately impact low- income communities. Projects that improve air quality are to be given priority for funding. The bill does not specify if non -container fee matching funds are required. The Southern California Goods Movement Authority is created by SB 974 as the responsible entity for developing a one-time list of infrastructure projects to be funded by container fees. The Authority consists of nine voting members, six of which represent Los Angeles County.. SB 974 gives one vote to each of the following entities: (1) Port of Los Angeles, (2) Port of Long Beach, (3) City of Los Angeles, (4) City of Long Beach, (5) Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority, (6) Alameda Corridor East Construction Authority, (7) Orange County Transportation Authority, (8) Riverside County Transportation Commission, (8) San Bernardino Associated Governments. Action by the Authority requires only a majority vote. 52 Between January 1, 2008 and April 1, 2008 the Authority is required to develop a priority list of projects to be funded by the container fee and submit it to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) for approval. The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) must also be consulted. The CTC must approve a project :list by September: 1 2008. The Authority can remove projects from the `'list which are fully funded or are deemed no longer worthy of funding; however, the bill does not appear _ to allow projects to be added or exchanged after CTC approval. The Authority is also required to hold public hearings to receive input on the project list, with at least one hearing to be held near the ports. Analysis Although the language of SB 974 mandates the Authority to take into account the entire rail corridor servicing the ports, the governing structure gives de minimis influence to the non -Los Angeles County corridor, let alone the Riverside County. The impact of goods movement on the Alameda Corridor East in Riverside, 'San Bernardino and Orange Counties is well documented and widely acknowledged by elected and administration officials in Sacramento. Yet, SB 974 does not go far enough to recognize the air quality, congestion, and quality of life burdens borne by the residents of !Riverside County. SB 974 lacks a -sunset date for the container fee or a definition of how much revenue is to be collected over the Fife of the program and what is the total expected value of the projects to be funded. Without definitions of how much revenue is to be raised and what volume of projects is to be funded, there arises uncertainty as to what should be the scope of the one-time :project list. further, the one-time project Fist does not contain flexibility for projects: to be added or swapped when projects .become fully funded or higher priorities arise over the course of the program. In short, the legislation leaves a great deal of 'latitude over: the scope of the program to a regionally imbalanced governing board, but only gives it one chance before projects are set in stone. Finally, 'SB 974 requires the new joint -powers authority: to, "consult" with SCAG in developing the project list. SCAG's consultation role is left vague in the legislation. Consultation could be interpreted a variety of ways that could add additional bureaucratic processes on top of this new government entity .and cornplicate decision - making. Allowing : broad latitude for participation by another . organization has the potential to further diminish Riverside County's position, to ensure necessary funding to goods movement projects in the Inland Empire. Staff recommendation Based on the above analysis of SB 974 as amended on September 5, 2007, staff recommends the Commission adopt an OPPOSE UNLESS AMENDED position on the bill. Further, staff recommends the Commission propose the following amendments to state leaders who will be involved in crafting SB 974 this fall and next year: 53 " " Guarantee a minimum level of funding in statuteto each county on the Alameda Corridor East for an initial round of goods movement projects, with project selection for this initial round determined by each county; " Provide regional balance in representation on the board of the Southern California Goods Movement Authority, recognizing the significant impacts of goods movement on Riverside County; " Provide flexibility for project lists to be modified after :their . adoption to reflect changing priorities and funding situations; " Specify a non -container fee matching requirement for projects funded by container .fees; and " Delete the requirement that SCAG be consulted in the, adoption of project lists. Further, staff recommends the Commission adopt the following list of grade separations as the .top -priority projects which should be funded as part of any voluntary agreement or legislation that creates revenue for goods movement via a container fee or "premium". This list is consistent with the Commission's adopted Grade Separation Funding Strategy (October 2006).

This is the final 16 mile segment of Orange County's public toll road system and would provide direct access from State Route 91 in Riverside to Interstate 5 just south of the Orange/San Diego County line. The Foothill -South project has been on the Orange County Master Plan of Arterial Highways since 1981. After six years of analysis by federal resource agencies, an alignment was chosen in . 2006 that accommodates the needs of the traveling public and also provides the most environmentally sensitive road possible. The Orange County Transportation Authority's long- term plans assume that the 241 will be completed. Completing the 241 will benefit all drivers throughout the Southern California region — whether it's commuters from the Inland Empire or commercial truck traffic from San Diego — by providing a complete congestion -free option to the I-5 through Orange County. Again, I respectfully request your support of the completion of the 241, which is crucial to the quality of life and economic future of the Southern California region.

OCTA's plans rely on the transportation capacity provided by Foothill -South as an important regional facility that helps reduce future congestion on the 'San Diego Freeway (1-5) in south Orange County. Additionally, it is included in the Southern California. Association of Government's (SCAG) Regional Transportation Plan and Regional Transportation Improvement Program. OCTA has supported the Foothill -South throughout the project development process. For example, OCTA approved changes to the 2004 Regional Transportation Improvement Program that allowed the Transportation Corridor Agencies (TCA) to reduce the ultimate footprint of Foothill -South from 8, lanes to 6 lanes. This involved complex air quality conformity findings that allowed the reduced footprint to move ahead. In addition, the OCTA Board of Directors unanimously approved the Foothill -South extension in the baseline of the county's Long Range Transportation Plan on July 24, 2006. As you are aware, bothOCTA and TCA have conducted traffic forecasts for the south county area. OCTA -has recently reviewed potential differences between the two which has been questioned by some stakeholders. Upon detailed analysis, OCTA has concluded that the TCA model is consistent with OCTA modeling guidelines and produces similar congestion trends. In short, construction of the Foothill -South would provide congestion relief to the 1-5 in south Orange County. AA memo outlining the details of this analysis_ is attached; however, the following three points summarize the analysis: • The models are using consistent travel forecasting methodologies • Both predict similar volumes along study area boundaries • ... Both predict similar congestion patterns along the I-5 corridor Orange County Transportation Authority . 550 South Maier Street /P.O.
