In the past, we have been told that SANBAG needs to be financially involved if a station were to be located in the Highgrove area because it is so close to the county line. RCTC needs the property at the Highgrove location for a curved track from the Perris Valley Line to the BNSF right of way, but this same property could also be used for a Metrolink platform. In addition, RCTC also wants to purchase another piece of property south of Palmyrita Ave. for a platform and parking where there are no existing commuter trains. With this plan, I see a duplication of expenses for the purchase of 2 properties instead of 1 and I also see a delay of several more years for Metrolink service to this area. And I am sure these expenses are without any help from SANBAG for the purchase of the 2 different properties. 7 days a week, there are commuter trains that pass through Highgrove but do not stop. This amounts to 62 trains a week or 3, 224 commuter trains a year. Highgrove has commuter trains that can serve riders in 3 different directions: To and from Riverside, to and from San Bemardino, and eventually to and from Perris, and it is only %2 mile north of the Palmyrita location. We believe the Highgrove location would benefit the entire region on both sides of the county line. Why is Highgrove preferred over Palmyrita? 1. One platform on the west side of the Highgrove property would immediately serve riders between Riverside and San Bemardino and this same platform could serve riders between Riverside and Perris in 3 or 4 years. 2. During the Perris Valley Line construction timeframe of 3 years, for example, there will be 967 commuter trains that pass through Highgrove that could stop for passengers! 3. Grading is currently underway for 2 warehouses on the south side of the arroyo but all of the 35 acres are still vacant and are "For Sale"! 4. A dirt road has been graded across the arroyo near the BNSF tracks that makes the north 19 acres accessible to Metrolink commuters where there is ample parking. We oppose building a station at Pahnyrita where there will be no commuter trains for several years. We have waited 6 '/2 years and there is no need to wait an additional 3 years or more for commuter service. We already have commuter trains every day of the week! We just need some of these trains to stop at Highgrove. We do not want to stop the Perris Valley Line project, just change the station location from Palmyrita Ave. to Highgrove. Simply put: BUILD A PLATFORM WHERE THE COMMUTER TRAINS ALREADY EXIST!!! R. A.

INTERSTATE 215/VAN BUREN INTERCHANGE: TRADE CORRIDORS IMPROVEMENT FUND Tanya Love, Goods Movement Manager, presented the request from the county of Riverside for a Trade Corridor Improvement Fund (TCIF) allocation for Interstate 215/Van Buren interchange. In response to, Commissioner Mary Craton's question regarding contributions by the developer involved in this project, Tanya Love replied there are many distribution centers at the. Meridian Business Park and. various funding sources. Commissioner Buster replied that with the escalation in costs concerning this project, there will be participation by the redevelopment tax increments that are ,generated out of the Meridian Business Park. Art Cassel, Lake Mathews area resident, discussed the area of the proposed I-215/Van Buren - interchange project and a proposal to improve the interchange at a minimal expense. He expressed strong concern that the tax payers will be funding the impact of Meridian Business Park and its developer, LNR. He recommended the Commission not support this item. Riverside County Transportation Commission Minutes June 11, 2008 Page 14 Commissioner Craton asked if LNR is funding any of the improvements. Commissioner Roger Berg stated these improvements are to enhance the economy. He expressed the Commission needs to partner with the private industry in order to provide easier access to jobs within Riverside County and supports funding this project.

Additionally, this interchange improvement will not only be utilized for the Meridian Business Park, but for the expansion of the March Global Port. The goal is to create jobs locally so that the residents can work close to home. He expressed support for these improvements and believes LNR is funding its fair share. Commissioner Chris Carlson explained that this project was envisioned when the economic development fund was created and is exactly the type of project that this fund, is set up for. She motioned to approve staff's recommendation. Commissioner M. Wilsonexpressed support for staff's recommendation. Commissioner Gregory Pettis requested staff address the concern regarding LNR funding its fair share of the costs. Commissioner Carlson clarified that the developer is LNR and not: Lennar Homes. Commissioner John Tavaglione_ explained that with the renewal of Measure A and the evaluation of TUMF, major interchanges were part of that analysis, including the 1-215/Van Buren interchange. He expressed that the economic development fund was created solely for the purpose of attracting and promoting major projects that are the most logical for economic growth. He does not believe that this item is to relieve LNR from its financial responsibilities. Commissioner Marion Ashley_ explained the traffic congestion is increasing op the 1-215 because of the I-215/Van Buren interchange, noting that the Meridian Business -Park is not utilizing this interchange at this time. There will be approximately 15,000 jobs created in that area within the next five years, not including the other surrounding expansion impacts. He stated that he understands Mr. Cassel's concerns regarding economic development funds being used for this interchange, however he believes the same argument could be made for any interchange project. He then stated his support for staff's recommendation. Riverside County Transportation Commission Minutes June 11, 200-8 Page 15 Commissioner Henderson noted that there have been public speakers before the Commission that have spoken passionately about bringing the jobs to Riverside County. She believes that this item addresses those requests. Commissioner Gordon Moller asked who is responsible to fund this interchange and stated that he believes creating additional jobs outweighs the $10 million in economic development funds spent. Anne Mayer explained that the Commission is not responsible for interchange projects. Most interchanges in Riverside County are funded from a variety of sources with the local agency serving as the lead agency to ensure those projects are completed. Additionally, some projects are an immediate need, therefore, those existing projects need to identify funding sources that are not development based. In general, an interchange project in Riverside County is funded by a variety of sources. The Commission funds interchange projects from a variety of different sources based on requests that are made from the lead agency. In this particular instance, the request for funding from Riverside County is clearly in line with what the Commission had envisioned when Measure A was adopted and is consistent with the economic development program. Commissioner Buster explained that the Meridian Business Park and LNR will create several jobs in the middle of Western Riverside County around the I-2.15/Van Buren interchange, which is an area that is prime for local jobs. He expressed appreciation for the comments from the Commissioners because this approach will need to continue in other areas of the 1-215 and supports this motion as this will help with the future quality of life for Riverside County. Commissioner M. Wilson stated that the benefits received by investing $10 million in economic development funds for job creation outweigh the cost and referred to this as the Commission's economic stimulus package. Chair Stone reminded the Commission that there is a multiplier effect when jobs are created. Commissioner Robin Lowe explained that the economic development program when Measure A was renewed promised the voters that economic development funds would be set aside to be used for this purpose and this Commission is keeping one of those commitments by approving this improvement project. Riverside County Transportation Commission Minutes June 11, 2008 Page 16 Commissioner Pettis asked if it is the Commission's intention to proportionately allocate these economic development funds to the eastern portion of the county as well. Anne Mayer replied that the economic development funds are only for allocation in Western Riverside County. M/S/C (Carlson/Henderson) to: 1) Approve Agreement No. 08-31-124-00 ` with the county of Riverside (County) for an "off the top" allocation of $10 million in Measure A Economic Development funds in support of the 1-215Nan Buren interchange; and 2) Authorize the Chair, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreement on behalf of the Commission. Abstain: Pettis 11.

Wilson requested clarification of AB 996 (Spitzer) regarding the Confidential Records Program (CRP); asking if there is a way to only allow law enforcement agencies to access the information aind pass through the funds to the local jurisdictions.

Wilson and indicated staff will pass this suggestion on to Assemblymember Todd Spitzer for consideration. Commissioner Tavaglione stated with regard to SB 1507 (Oropez.a) that school districts do not have to go through any local governmental entity to build a school and suggested there may be better legislation to put the responsibility on the school district to not build near highways. Commissioner Kelly expressed opposition to AB 996 as he is opposed to a. private firm having access to confidential information. Chair Stone asked Commissioner Roy Wilson, in his role as a SCAQMD board member, for clarification regarding the administrative cap that will be raised from 3% to 5% through SB 1646 (Padilla) and if he believes the raise is justified. Commissioner R. Wilson replied SCAQMD has been spending about 5% in administrative costs as this is a very extensive program and SCAQMD has been supplementing those funds from other sources. Chair Stone recommended the Commissioners vote on each bill on an individual basis. At this time, Commissioner Miller left the room.

There are four urbanized areas in Riverside County: • Riverside/San Bernardino; • Hemet/San Jacinto; • Temecula/Murrieta; and • Indio/Cathedral City/Palm Springs. Prior to an operator submitting its Section 5307 grant application to FTA, the Commission must develop and approve a POP for each urbanized area and conduct a public hearing. Attachment 2 to this staff report is the proposed Section 5307 POP for Riverside County. The draft POP, if not amended through the public hearing process, will become final as presented and will be included in an approved RTIP and subsequently forwarded to the Southern California Association of Governments for review and processing. Section 5307 Formula Funds City of Riverside Special Services Riverside Transit Agency Commission Regional Commuter Rail SunLine Transit Agency $ 944,000 18, 574, 349 1,245,000 3,146,400, $ 23,909,749 The actual Section 5307 apportionments for FY 2008/09 will not be known until later this calendar -year when final appropriations are made by Congress. The POP was developed at the highest anticipated funding amount to allow the operators to proceed with their grant applications and to avoid delays associated with program amendments and additional paperwork should the actual apportionments come in lower than estimated. Balances, if any, will be carried over to subsequent fiscal years and will be made available to meet future transit needs. Section 5309 Discretionary Funds The Section 5309 program provides capital assistance, on a discretionary basis, for new and replacement buses and related facilities. For FY 2008/09, RTA and SunLine have identified projects totaling $1,823,328 in Section 5309 discretionary funds. Prior to the operators accessing these funds, the projects must be included in an approved RTIP.

For FY 2008/09, it is estimated that LTF revenue for transit services will be $62,837,1101. STA funding is the second source of TDA funds. STA funds are generated from the statewide sales tax on motor vehicle fuel (gasoline and diesel). The STA funds are appropriated to the state controller for allocation by formula to each transportation planning agency. The Commission is responsible for the allocation of these funds for Riverside County. The formula allocates 50% of the funds on the basis of the region's population compared to the state's population (STA 99313 funds). The remaining 50% is allocated according to the prior year proportion of the region's transit operator passenger fare and local support revenues (STA 99314 funds). According to the state controller's office, the amount of STA funds projected to be received in Riverside County for FY 2008/09 is $20,693,290 (S18,030,677-is 99313 discretionary funds and S2,662,613 is 99314 non -discretionary operator funds). Prior to approving the STA allocations, the Commission must adopt the attached resolution as specified in the TDA statutes, California Code of Regulations. In order for the public transit operators to claim LTF and/or STA funds for operating and capital purposes, the Commission must allocate funds to support the transit services and capital projects contained in the FY 2008/09 SRTP. The requested allocations are consistent with the approved SRTPs and the funds are explicitly for the projects as stated in the approved plans. Attached to this staff report are the specific operators' requested TDA allocations for FY 2008/09. Staff recommends the approval of the TDA and FTA funds as presented. As in previous years, any modifications in fare box revenues, federal grants, Measure A funding, or carry over funds may require operators to revise their services to operate within the funding limitations. Fiscal Impact The FY 2008/09 budget adopted at the June 11, 2008 Commission meeting included $74,087,000 in LTF transit operating expenditures, $1,046,400 in LTF. capital expenditures and $22,928,000 in STA capital expenditures. These budgeted expenditures are expected to be funded by FY 2008/09 revenues as well as available fund balance. No budget adjustments are required based on these recommended allocations. Of the $62,837,11.0 LTF amount, $6,283,711 has been set aside as reserve funds based on Commission approved policy.

A g e n d a I t e m 8 A 1 6 For FFY 2007/08, the Commission set an annual DBE goal of 3.59%. To date, the total percentage of DBE award is 9.54%. The Commission awarded two FTA funded Consultant Contracts and one FTA funded Construction Contract. The DBE percentage achieved was 9.54%. Staff anticipated awarding the Construction of the Perris Multimodal Facility contract in FFY 2007/08. But due to design, right-of-way, and funding issues, this was delayed until FFY 2008/09. For FFY 2008/09, there is one project receiving direct FTA funding: Perris Multimodal Facility Scope of Work — Construction of the Perris Multimodal Facility at the site of the future Perris Metrolink commuter rail station. Estimated Total Amount of Contract: S 4,168,680 Estimated Federal Funds: S 2,715,273 As required, the public notice has been published in the newspaper to inform the public of the proposed goals and the rationale for setting the goal. These documents are available for inspection at the Commission for 30 days following the date of the notice, with a 45-day comment period. If there are no substantive comments received, the adopted goal and goal methodology shall be submitted to the Federal Transit Administration prior to the start of the FFY on October 1, 2008.

The weighted Base Figure is calculated by first determining the number of ready, willing, and able DBEs in the four counties for the work category shown above, divided by the number of total firms in the category. Using this method determines the availability by the number of firms that have directly participated in, or attempted to participate in, past federally -funded assisted contracting efforts. The application of the formula yields the following baseline information: Number of Ready, Willing and Able DBEs = Base Figure Number of All Ready, Willing and Able Firms 27 III. ANTICIPATED PROJECTS FOR FFY 2008/09 As of the date of this item, no projects have been identified to receive Federal Highway Administration funding.

TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: John Standiford, Deputy Executive Director THROUGH: Anne Mayer, Executive Director SUBJECT: Disbandment of the Transit Policy Committee STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Commission to disband the Transit Policy Committee and direct all transit agenda items to the Plans and Programs Committee. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In May 2004, the Riverside County Transportation Commission directed the formation of a standing committee to accomplish four major goals. The four goals included: • Monitor transit implementation; • Review performance of operators; • Bring regional perspective to transit; and • Guide the preparation of a transit vision. The creation of the Committee was an outgrowth of the findings of the Commission's Triennial Performance Audit that recommended that the Commission develop a vision for transit service in Riverside County and to ensure its success by giving it a high priority and designating a dedicated committee consisting of Commissioners to guide it through the process. Over the course of approximately three years, the Transit Policy Committee addressed the issue of formulating a transit vision by addressing the following policy issues: • Route productivity; • Reserves: What, if any, is appropriate level; • Funds allocated, unclaimed; • State mandated farebox recovery ratio; • Accrual of interest on allocated, unclaimed funds; • Timeliness of spending allocated capital funds; and • Allocation of 2009 Measure "A" funds: Western Riverside. Agenda Item 8C 35 Thanks to the dedicated work of the Transit Policy Committee, these policy issues were thoroughly considered and culminated in the Commission's adoption of a Transit Vision in May. The Transit Vision provides the necessary framework to expand transit service throughout the county, address cost effectiveness and funding issues, helps ensure continued service for seniors and persons with disabilities and allocated the first 10 years of Western Riverside transit funding that is included in Measure A. Moreover the creation of the transit vision was the byproduct of a collaborative effort between the Commission and every public transit operator in the county. Given the successful adoption of the Transit Vision, staff recommends the disbanding of the Transit Policy Committee. The Committee's proscribed responsibilities in the triennial audit have been fulfilled and ongoing issues regarding public transit service and funding issues can be addressed by the Commission's Plans and Programs Committee. Since the original creation of the Transit Policy Committee was made possible through a formal action of the Commission, formal Commission approval is necessary to disband the Committee and reassign its policy responsibilities. The current Transit Policy Committee members are: Roger Berg, City of Beaumont, Chair John Chlebnik, City of Calimesa Michael Wilson, City of Indio Frank West, City of Moreno Valley Frank Hall, City of Norco, Vice -Chair Daryl Busch, City of Perris Steve Adams, City of Riverside Ron Roberts, City of Temecula John Tavaglione, County of Riverside, District 2 Jeff Stone, County of Riverside, District 3 Roy Wilson, County of Riverside, District 4 Attachment: Transit Policy Committee Minutes, May 22, 2008 Agenda Item 8C 36 " " " R I V E R S / D E C O U N T Y T R A N S P O R T A T I O N C O M M / S S / O N T R A N S I T P O L I C Y C O M M I T T E E M a y 2 2 , 2 0 0 8 M i n u t e s 1 .

Commissioner Ron Roberts requested the status of combining the transit administrations of the cities of Banning and Beaumont. Commissioner John Chlebnik noted that the two cities coordinate schedules and routes, however, there are two separate transit administrations. Michelle Green, city of Banning, concurred that the routes and schedules are being coordinated between the cities of Banning and Beaumont. She said there have been several changes made recently with the city of 13eaumont's services. Her understanding is that there are a number of political issues with regard to having only one administration instead of two separate administrations. She noted that both cities have recently hired transit management firms and are beginning discussions. 40 Transit Policy Committee Minutes May 22, 2008 Page 5 In response to Commissioner Daryl Busch's question regarding the Commission's authority to direct the cities of Banning and Beaumont to establish a single administration, Steve DeBaun, legal counsel, stated that the Commission can encourage and facilitate the process.

Overall, the survey results show that frequency of driving on SR-91 (at least twice a month) has an important on attitudes toward transportation issues in general, traffic congestion and support for toll roads. Residents' proximity to SR-91 appears to have less impact on opinions and preferences. While the economy is the primary concern for Riverside residents, traffic congestion is considered one of the top issues facing the region. (See Figure 1) Regardless of proximity to and usage of SR-91, more than ten percent of residents identify traffic congestion to be the most serious issue facing Southern California. Further, the proportion of residents identifying traffic congestion as their top concern is statistically similar to the proportion who regards home foreclosures, crime or education to be the most serious issue. Survey Methodology: From March 13-19, 2008, FMM&A conducted a Random -Digit -Dial (RDD) Telephone Survey of 1,000 residents in Riverside County. 500 interviews were with residents living in SR-91 Adjacent Zip Codes; 250 interviews were conducted Countywide with residents who use SR-91 at least twice a month; and 250 interviews were conducted Countywide with residents who do not use SR-91 at least twice a month. Four Population Subsets are presented for. Analysis: 1) SR-91 Adjacent/Use at least 2 times a month; n=344. 2) Non-SR- 91 Adjacent/Use at least 2 times a month; n=181. 3) SR-91 Adjacent/Do Not Use at least 2 times a month; n=275. 4) Non-SR-91 Adjacent/Do Not Use at least 2 times a month; n=200. 2425 Colorado Ave. Suite 180 Santa Monica, CA 90404 Phone: (310) 828-1183 Fax: (310) 453-6562 1999Harrison Street Suite 1290 Oakland, CA Phone: Fax: 94612 (510) 451-9521 (510) 451-0384 58 Traffic congestion Home foreclosures Crime Education The environment Summary of Survey Results Page 2 Figure 1: Most Serious Issue Facing Southern California (Ranked by SR-91 Adjacent/Use at least 2 times a month) `SR-91 Allaceml er Useatleast, 2 times a month 15°% 13% 10°le Non=SR51 { Adjacentt, ' Use of least ' 21h.nes a`month 14% 15% 8% 11% 1% SR-91 Adjacent( Do Not Use at least 2 times a month 12°% 13% Non-SR-9 Adjacent(' Do Not Use at lea 2 times a'monti 11% 13% 14% 13% 2% Illegal immigration 1 %' 2% 2% Gas price 1% 1°% 0% Gov't/Politicians tl%' 0% 1% All of Above 4% 4°% DK/NA 3% 3% Other 1% 0% 0% Not surprisingly, residents who use SR-91 at least twice a month are the most likely to have used a toll road or express lane due to traffic problems. Seven -in -ten residents who live in SR-91 adjacent communities and use SR-91 twice a month report using a toll road or express lane due to traffic problems, and 61 percent of non-SR-9I adjacent residents who use SR-91 twice a month also answered yes to this question. (See Figure 2) There was no difference in use of toll roads and express lanes due to traffic problems among the residents who do not use SR-91 at least twice a month.

(See Figure 3) The other most frequently identified reason for not driving on these roads is the cost. It should be noted that those who use SR-91 twice a month mentioned cost as a barrier to usage in higher percentages as compared to non-SR-91 users. Within each population subgroup, ten percent or fewer stated the cost of a transponder and congestion on express lanes were the main reasons for not using the roads.

(See Figure 4) Survey results showed that Fast -Track accounts were most common with SR-91 adjacent residents who use the road at least twice a month (45 percent). In comparison, a third (36 percent) of non -adjacent regular users did have an account. There was no difference in having a Fast -Track account among non -regular users of SR-91 regardless of whether they lived in adjacent or non -adjacent communities.

(See Figure 5) Residents stated that they do not use toll roads and express lanes enough to justify the cost of a transponder, or that the cost to drive on these roads is prohibitive. It should be noted that a one -in -four regular users of SR-91 who live in non -adjacent communities cited the "costs" itself, while at least a third of residents in the other population subgroups identified transponder costs as the main reason for not having an account. Additionally, slight more than one -in -five of all non -adjacent residents and SR-91 adjacent non - regular users responded that the main reason they do not have an account is because toll roads and express lanes are not convenient.

(See Figure 6) There were no statistically significant differences in perception of tax revenue usage, as about one -in -five residents in all population subgroups thought these taxes fund the maintenance of existing roads and freeways. Further, about 30 percent of all residents across the four subgroups responded that that did not know how these tax dollars are spent.

As shown in Figure 12, irrespective of usage and proximity to SR-91, survey results demonstrated that "more accidents from motorists cutting in and out of express lanes at unauthorized locations" was the biggest concern about extending express lanes. Regular and non -regular users of SR-91 who live in adjacent communities were slightly more concerned that the extension project will increase the cost of express lanes. "Fewer people using express lanes while there is traffic congestion in the free lanes" was the least concerning possible outcome among all residents.

(See Figure 13) For all population subgroups, residents chose developing more express lanes by at least a three -to -one margin over various forms of tax increases. It should also be noted that within each subgroup a nearly equal number of residents did not considered any of the funding options as desirable.

Residents who drive on SR-91 at least twice a month rated the freeways they use as "very congested" more frequently than non -regular users of SR-91. Three -in -five (62 percent) of adjacent SR-91 regular users rated freeways as very congested and 55 percent of non -adjacent regular users considered freeways they drive on to be very congested. (See Figure 14) In comparison, less than half (48 percent) of adjacent non -regular SR-91 users perceived the freeways they use to be very congestion and only 38 percent non -adjacent non -regular users had a similar perception.

(See Figure 17) The differences among the population subgroups are not great, but it should be noted that slightly fewer adjacent residents who use SR- 91 at least twice a month think traffic has gotten much worse in the past five years. This finding is surprising since a greater proportion of these residents were most likely to state that traffic congestion has negatively affected the quality of their lives.

Following the trends of previous survey results, both adjacent (45 percent) and non -adjacent (41 percent) residents who use SR-91 at least twice a month were more likely to have carpooled. In comparison, about three -in -ten non -regular SR-91 users have carpooled due to traffic problems. (See Figure 22) Figure 22: Have You Carpooled due to Traffic Problems?

(See Figure 23) Twelve percent of adjacent and non -adjacent residents who use SR- 91 at least twice a month reported vanpooling. Non -regular adjacent residents who do not use SR-91 regularly are the least likely population subgroup to vanpool. Figure 23: Have You Carpooled due to Traffic Problems?

(See Figure 24) More than 60 percent of all regular users of SR-91 were more apt to agree with this statement, as were a solid majority of those who do not drive on SR-91 at least twice a month. Additionally, strong majorities of all population subgroups disagree with increasing the number of people in a vehicle to three to permit usage of a toll road or express lane. There was less of a consensus on allowing single passenger cars into HOV lanes when roads are not congested. Also, attitudes toward allowing all drivers to use carpool lanes on the 91-freeway were mixed, as a majority of non -adjacent regular SR-91 users and adjacent non - regulars users agreed with this concept but others were less likely to agree. Further, likely due to the fact that they commute more often and longer distances, regular users of SR-91 were more likely to agree that current gas taxes provide enough funding to reduce traffic congestion. The survey result also showed that regular SR-91 users have a greater understanding of why the cost of toll roads change based on the time of day. 70 Summary of Survey Results Page 14 Figure 24: Agree/Disagree with Statements about Transportation Issues (Ranked by SR91Adjacent/Use at least l times a month Agree) Current gas taxes are enough to pay for all the road improvements needed to reduce traffic congestion I would increase my own use of toll roads and express lanes by at least 50 percent if it meant that my commute or travel lime was cut in half I understand why the toll charged on the 91 Express Lanes can change throughout the day The carpool lane in Riverside County on the 91 freeway should be converted to a lane for everyone's general use Vehicles with one occupant should be allowed to use car pool lanes for a fee when it was not congested The money required to improve local freeways and reduce traffic congestion should come from an increase in taxes such as personal income tax, sales tax and/or gas tax rather than creating more tolls roads or increasing tolls To keep car pool lanes free flowing, I support increasing the requirement that car pool lanes can only be used by vehicles with at least 3 people as opposed to 2 as is the case now SR-91 ' - AdjacentlUse a j�least 2 times a month NorrSR-91SR-91 Non-SR-91„ AdjacentlUse ate AdjacerrtDo Not t Adjacenti0o Not least 2 times Use at least ` -� Use at least a month,f, 2 times a month 2 times a month , A�rc'e Dsagree:i Agree Disagree 66% 60% 59% 55°% 55% 40°% 30% 71 26% 31% 31% 36% 43°% 54% 67% Agree , ree Agree Disagree 52% 56% 56% 45°% 41 °% 39% 27% 34% 30°% 36% 45% 54°% 53% 71% AGENDA ITEM 8G Riverside County Transportation Commission TO: FROM: DATE: Riverside County Transportation Commission Jennifer Harmon, Clerk of the Board July 3, 2008 SUBJECT: Possible Conflicts of Interest Issues - RCTC Agenda of July 9, 2008 The July 9, 2008 agenda of the Riverside County Transportation Commission includes items which may raise possible conflicts of interest.

Administrative Amendment Nos. 07-65-105-01 and 07-65-105-02 were issued to Kleinfelder in August 2007 and June 2008, respectively. Amendment No. 1 covered additional costs for a web -based management system and Amendment No. 2 covered the costs associated with bringing in fire monitors required by the U.S.D.A. Forest Service. The two amendments did not require an increase to the budget as there was sufficient approved budget authority. During a meeting with Congressman Ken Calvert and Metropolitan Water District (MWD) staff, the Commission was asked whether there might be an opportunity to supplement the recently completed data obtained by MWD for its Central Pool Augmentation (CPA) project, which was conducted within the Cleveland National Forest. The corehole sites are within a similar alignment to the CPA project sites, and deepening of two corehole locations to be at an equal depth/elevation to the MWD coreholes would provide good additional data for both projects. In consultation with MWD staff and the Commission's technical specialists, Commission staff determined that by deepening the planned drilling an additional 550 feet on the eastern corehole location (ICE-1) and an additional 202 feet on the western corehole (ICE-5), valuable information could be obtained with minimal schedule impact (attachment). Staff recommends that the Commission approve Amendment No. 3 with Kleinf elder for the deepening of two corehole locations for a not to exceed amount of $650,000, bringing the total contract amount to $6,808,608. Funding for this work is available from the federal funds identified specifically for this geotechnical work.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION_ In June 2006, the Commission entered into Agreement No. 06-66-044-00 with CRG to develop a web -based project management database. The database is 85% complete and staff is recommending that the Commission approve an additional $8,870 to complete the database. The development of the project database included a thorough assessment of the Commission's project management data requirements including capturing programming and project information contained in the Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP) and Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) data, and project milestone reports. The database also allows for access to information including interactive maps, tracking of project related documents, and expanded funding classifications to facilitate better analysis of project funding. The database will be accessible by Commission project delivery staff and local agency staff. Additionally, local agency staff will have the ability to review and update project information resulting in time and cost savings. There have been a few delays to the project due to circumstances beyond the consultant's control, which included a request by staff to evaluate new software applications, the Commission key staff resignation, and the Commission Agenda Item 8H 75 programming staff assignment priorities; 2008 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and 2008 Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP). The 2008 RTP and RTIP updates required a tremendous amount of time and the project database development was put on hold so that programming staff can meet the RTP and RTIP deadlines. In March 2008, the RTP and RTIP work subsided, and in May 2008, an additional staff person was hired to fill the vacated Senior Staff Analyst position. Programming staff is now fully prepared to work with the consultant to finish the remaining tasks. The database architecture is fully complete and operating including navigation among the various project screens and tabs. Project information has been incorporated with minor updates to projects currently being added by the Commission staff. In order to complete the database, the following items need to be completed by CRG: • Fund Coding Sort Options - This will allow Commission staff the capability of reporting project delivery per fund source, per year. Caltrans and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) require quarterly reports on federally funded projects. The Commission must be able to quickly assess its delivery and prevent funding lapse issues. • Activating on line Project Milestone Reports - Local agencies, will have the ability to update their project status on line. This will greatly reduce the time it takes to send out and receive the reports. The Commission will have the ability to prepare and submit the reports to Caltrans, FHWA, and Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) in a much more efficient and timely manner. • Adding weblinks to SCAG's RTP and RTIP programming documents - In order to obligate federal funds or receive federal approvals for environmental documents or other project requirements, the RTP and RTIP programming documents must always be referenced. Having a direct link into the programming documents (beyond SCAG's website homepage) will allow project sponsors to easily and quickly retrieve the project information. • Conducting Database User Workshop - CRG would provide users of the database one or two training workshops. The database is designed to be user friendly. Staff recommends approval of an additional $8,870 to the CRG contract to complete the web -based database and extend the term of the contract to December 31, 2008. Hosting options include a basic upgrade and maintenance fee Agenda Item 8H 76 " a n d a l s o a f e e f o r f u l l - t i m e h o s t i n g .

Staff proposes to add two firms to the on -call list to maintain the ability to quickly begin project development should unforseen circumstances arise, ,such as the inability to come to terms with one of the qualified firms, disqualification of a firm on the list, or the need to begin work on additional projects. Extension of this list will allow staff to continue to negotiate contracts with firms selected from the existing list established in 2007 (after it has been demonstrated that adequate qualifications and resource availability has been maintained) and. augment the list to make available additional consultants for new projects that are expected to initiate project development in the coming year. These on -call consulting services include planning and engineering studies, environmental studies, and possible final design (plans, specifications, and estimate) assignments.

A g e n d a I t e m 8 J 8 0 The improvements associated with the SR-91 HOV CMIA project require that the existing SR-91 Pachappa undercrossing, for the Union Pacific Rail Road (UPRR); be replaced with a longer structure to accommodate the widening of the freeway. To minimize costs for the Commission, and the impact to UPRR, the new longer structure and track will be constructed adjacent to the existing structure and the UPRR will switch to the new alignment and abandon the old alignment. This track realignment will also impact the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway (BNSF), the Metrolink track to the Riverside Downtown station, the Cridge Street grade crossing and the Panorama grade crossing. The division of work associated with the replacement of the Pachappa undercrossing is that Caltrans will develop the plans, specifications, and estimates (PS&E) and construct the new Pachappa undercrossing structure, the grading, drainage, roadway, retaining walls, and removal of the old structure, and the Commission is responsible for the PS&E for the realignment of the track to allow for the replacement of the Pachappa undercrossing. The UPRR will construct all the UPRR track improvements. As part of the right-of-way cooperative agreement, the Commission is responsible for the coordination of agreements with the three rail agencies (UPRR, BNSF, Southern California Regional Rail Authority (SCRRA)) and the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) for impacts associated with the project. To come to an agreement with these four agencies requires that the new UPRR Pachappa track alignment and final design be finalized. To meet the CMIA schedule commitments, Caltrans requested that the Commission take the lead, using consultant engineering services, in developing the new UPRR Pachappa track alignment and final design. The Commission concurred with Caltrans' request and entered into Agreement No. 08-31-090-00 with HDR on March 17, 2008, for the not to exceed amount of $49,999 to provide preliminary track design services to allow for the replacement of the Pachappa undercrossing. HDR was selected to provide these services based upon the fact that HDR had just completed a track improvement study for UPRR for this area, and that HDR was included in the Commission's on -call list of engineering consultants, approved by the Commission in June 2007. The HDR preliminary track design services have been completed, transmitted to UPRR, BNSF, and SCRRA for their review and approval. The CMIA schedule also requires that the Commission move forward with the final PS&E for the realignment of the track to allow for the replacement of the Pachappa undercrossing. Staff requested, received, and concurs with the attached HDR scope of work, schedule and cost estimate to provide the final PS&E rail design services. Staff is recommending a contingency of $25,000 for possible project Agenda Item 8J 81 " m a n a g e m e n t c o o r d i n a t i o n b e t w e e n t h e U P R R , B N S F , S C R R A , a n d P U C , p l u s a g e n e r a l c o n t i n g e n c y o f $ 2 0 , 0 0 0 , f o r a t o t a l o f $ 4 5 , 0 0 0 .

Based on the projected cost to replace aging major equipment components as recommended by maintenance technicians, staff recommends additional compensation of $20,000 to cover elevator repairs for the remaining term of this contract. California Comfort HVAC, Inc. In January 2007, the Commission entered into an agreement with California Comfort HVAC, Inc., to provide maintenance services for the air conditioning systems at the five Metrolink stations with compensation of $5,895 for three years. That amount covered cleaning, testing, and other routine maintenance rendered every two months and semi-annually at the various stations. Based on historical experience and expected repairs of air conditioning equipment, staff recommends an additional $15,000 compensation to be added to this contract for its remaining term. Tropical Plaza Nursery, Inc. In January 2008, the Commission entered into an agreement with Tropical Plaza Nursery, Inc., to provide landscape maintenance services at the five Metrolink stations with compensation of $135,000 for one year. Based on recent experience with repairs required on the irrigation systems, staff recommends an amendment of this contract to provide $90,000 for such repairs. . Spotless Janitorial Services In December 2007, the Commission entered into an agreement with Spotless Janitorial Services to provide cleaning and grounds maintenance services for the five Metrolink stations with compensation of $196,380 for three years. Dust, debris, and other sources of dirt contamination from construction activities at the North Main Corona station has created conditions requiring additional cleaning services, which are expected to cost an additional $15,000 in the coming months. Staff recommends increasing the compensation for this contract to cover this expenditure. In summary, staff projects that an additional $140,000 will be required to cover the anticipated repairs and additional cleaning work.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Highway Safety, Traffic Reduction, Air Quality and Port Security Bond Act of 2006, approved by the voters as part of Proposition 1B in November 2006, includes a program of funding in the amount of $1 billion to be deposited in the Transit System Safety, Security and Disaster Response Account (TSSSDRA). The FY 2007/08 Budget Act includes $100 million for the TSSSDRA. Sixty percent of those funds are being made available for eligible transit system safety and security projects under the CTSGP-CTAF. The CTAF is administered by the Governor's Office of Homeland Security (OHS). At its June 2008 meeting, the Commission adopted the resolution allowing the local transit agencies to apply for these grant funds. The Commuter Rail Program is eligible for $347,852, which is comprised of $263,832 of population funds per Section 99313 and $84,020 of operator funds per Section 99314. In addition, the Commuter Rail Department proposes $20,000 of LTF revenues to apply to this project as a local match. Together these funds will provide for a comprehensive station security upgrade to the Riverside County Agenda Item 8L 86 commuter rail stations. All of the identified projects comply with the requirements of the CTSGP-CTAF. Comprehensive Station Security Upgrade Program Improved and Expanded CCTV System • Enhanced remote video surveillance capabilities will allow security personnel, law enforcement, and first responders to better monitor and assess incidents at all Riverside County Metrolink stations. This includes increasing video surveillance capacity required for new parking structure facilities currently under construction as well as additional stations under construction or planned for construction within the next two years. This will include added cameras in the elevators and along the walkways. It will also provide for additional cameras in the parking lots to expand video coverage. Metrolink Station Fencing, Bo/lards, and Lighting • Limited and controlled access to stations and platforms will mitigate .the potential of criminal activity at the stations that often result in personal injury, property damage, theft, etc. Furthermore, it will provide a means of limiting or preventing public access to the property in the event of a catastrophic accident or disaster. The projects include gating vehicle access points at the stations and providing bollards to protect access to trains and platforms. • Improved lighting and visibility will mitigate the potential of personal injury and criminal activity at the stations. As the stations do operate during non -daylight periods of the day, particularly during the winter months, it is essential to provide adequate lighting both for the physical safety of passengers as well as to discourage potential criminal activity. Furthermore, battery backup systems will ensure visibility in the event of equipment failure or power outage. Improved Security Monitoring and Response Upgrades • These projects will ensure security personnel are better equipped to rapidly respond to incidents and provide an enhanced presence throughout the large station properties by utilizing golf carts and retrofitting elevators to revert to the first floor for evacuation in the event of equipment failure or power outage.

A g e n d a I t e m 8 M 8 9 Metrolink Ticket Evasion Rate Under 1 % Metrolink reports a systemwide ticket evasion rate of 0.83% for the past two years of operation while the number of trains inspected has more than doubled over the same period. Fare enforcement inspections typically occur between two stations coordinated among Metrolink conductors, deputies and law enforcement technicians (LETs) of the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department. Citations are issued subject to the discretion of the inspector in cases where the passenger fails to present a ticket or presents invalid fare media. The report stated that the majority of documented evasions occur on lines other than those serving Riverside County. The majority of violators have a ticket though not for the correct station pair or an unvalidated ten trip. Ten trip ticket abuses are the most common offenses, increasing 23% over the last 6 months. When identified, problem lines are isolated and targeted for increased inspections. Metrolink regularly monitors enforcement activity, receiving both monthly and annual audit reports of deputies and LETs. These reports are prepared by Metrolink Sheriff supervisors. Metrolink reports that though inspection rates have increased, evasion rates have remained relatively steady, indicating optimal fare inspection and cost/benefit for the fare enforcement program. Metrolink Releases New Locomotive and Passenger Car Delivery Schedule Metrolink recently took delivery of the first of 15 new locomotives, to be conditionally accepted after approval of operator and maintenance manuals. The remaining vehicles will be delivered at the rate of one locomotive every two weeks through December 27. The locomotive is 10 feet longer than current Metrolink locomotives and can haul 10 passenger cars instead of six. This translates to an extra 1,200 passengers. That means more room for more riders who leave their vehicles behind. These state of the art high efficiency and low emission locomotives will greatly expand and enhance the existing fleet. The new MotivePower MPXpresso commuter locomotive. In addition, the first of the new passenger cars is scheduled for delivery in March of next year. A total of 54 trailer or standard cars and 33 cab cars will be delivered over Agenda Item 8M • 90 " t h e f o l l o w i n g o f 1 4 m o n t h s .

Such services address the needs of transit dependent riders as well as help mitigate congestion and the necessity for expensive parking capacity at the Commission stations. The Commission is working to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of transit connections. In order to meet these requirements, the Commission has worked with Metrolink and local transit operators to offer connecting services to and from Riverside County Metrolink stations at no cost for those with valid Metrolink tickets. Within Riverside County, services include free transfers to routes operated by RTA, RTA's Commuter Link service and Corona Cruiser. The following graphs show total monthly Metrolink transfer passenger trips on each of the three services. 3,000 • 2,500 a I- 2,000 w 0 1,500 1,000 Passenger Trips RTA Fixed Route �01 Ok Ok 6 ,01 Ok 00 �ef' fCi� 00 O \al Month Monthly Metrolink transfer trips on RTA's connecting fixed routes (1, 3, 15, 16, 21, 29, and 38) totaled 2,338 for the month of May, a decrease of 48 trips, 2.01 % less than the month of April.

I t i s t h r o u g h t h e A g e n d a I t e m 8 N 9 6 Universal Call for Projects where the Commission will receive project proposals from interested providers. DISCUSSION: SCAG is an agency with responsibility for comprehensive and coordinated regional transportation planning and programming in the six county SCAG region. In accordance with applicable federal and state law, these responsibilities primarily include but are not limited to preparation and adoption of the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP). SCAG is also the designated recipient of Federal Transit Agency (FTA) JARC and New Freedom program funds under 49 USC Sections 5316 and 5317, for large urbanized areas (UZAs) with populations of 200,000 or more in Riverside and San Bernardino Counties, including Riverside -San Bernardino, Indio -Cathedral City - Palm Springs, and Temecula-Murrieta. In administering the JARC and New Freedom formula program funds that is the subject of the agreement, SCAG shall be responsible for the following actions: 1) Applying for program funds using the Transportation Electronic Award and Management (TEAM) System on behalf of SANBAG and the Commission; and 2) Managing program funds distribution and oversight for sub -recipients receiving funds under this program. As previously mentioned, the Commission approved the Universal Call for Projects at its April 2008 meeting. Since that time, an application was prepared and distributed. Project proposals were received on June 16, 2008 and are now in the process of evaluation. Staff expects to come before the Commission at the September 2008 meeting with a recommendation for award. Accordingly, the agreement with SCAG will need to be in place so that funds can be disbursed to the designated sub -recipients. Since the Commission is only responsible for the allocation of funds once received by SCAG through the Universal Call for Projects, there are no financial impacts to the Commission associated with this agreement. The terms and conditions for which SCAG will receive a share of these funds for performing its duties as identified in the agreement are still to be negotiated and will be subject to review and approval by legal counsel.

For FY 2008/09, RTA has 12 new routes that are exempt from the farebox recovery requirement. SunLine has two new routes that are also exempt from farebox recovery calculation. Using the above formula and the Short Range Transit Plans, the FY 2007/08 minimum required ratio for RTA is 17.58% and 17.82% for SunLine. This means that passenger fares for RTA and SunLine should cover at least 17.58% and 17.82%, respectively, of the actual cost to operate services. Balance of the operating cost is covered by state, federal and local funding. The farebox recovery ratios for FY 2008/09 have been reviewed and approved by RTA and SunLine staff. Upon adoption of the required ratio by the Commission, the ratios are then fixed for the year and cannot be changed even though actual revenues and expenses may differ from the Short Range Transit Plan estimates.

Average Monthly Buspool Fare Per Rider $ 246.00 RCTC Subsidy,: Per Seat ? $ 35.00 Subsidy Rate 14% Unlike some of the other Commission approved ridesharing incentives, which have a limited term, the buspool subsidy is on -going. To renew its annual subsidy, an existing buspool is required to: • Request in writing, continuation of funding from the Commission for the new fiscal year; • Consistently meet minimum ridership requirements; and • Submit monthly ridership reports throughout the year. The three existing buspools have completed all the requirements for funding as set forth by the Commission including the submittal of monthly ridership reports and annual funding continuation requests. They have consistently exceeded the minimum ridership level of 25 riders per month and have collectively averaged 41 riders/month/buspool this current fiscal year. Buspools;, Corona Mira Loma Riverside Average Riders/Month 43 39 42 Roundtrip Distance --110 mi --123 mi --135 mi Annual; Miles Saved 1,221,898 1,224,375 1,459,872 Annual One Way Trips Reduced 22,176 19,844 21,692 68,194 Estimated Pounds of Emissions Reduced 3,906,144 Miles Saved 63,712 Trips Reduced In reducing the number of vehicles on SR-91 during peak periods, the buspool program saved nearly 3.9 million miles and 68,194 pounds of vehicle emissions in FY 2007/08. The buspool subsidy proves to be an effective use of Measure A Commuter Assistance funds and a budget of $100,000 is proposed for FY 2008/09. Based on the established monthly $1,645/month per buspool subsidy policy, the funds will support the continuation of the three existing buspools plus two new start-up buspools.

A g e n d a I t e m 8 R 1 3 7 In the next several months, the adopting stakeholders will use this document to raise awareness of California's intentions for the next authorization with the state's Congressional delegation, other statewide and national organizations, and candidates for national office working on authorization policy and positions. The group is timing the release of this document to influence committee staff before it begins drafting of proposals, which is expected to begin in the middle of November 2008. This set of principles is a general document by both necessity and by design. Because the state seeks consensus from a diverse group of stakeholders, the language is vague. The state provides opportunity for further detail and elaboration, allowing entities such as the Commission to build upon the framework and make stronger statements that reflect its specific interests within those principles. Adoption of these principles allows the Commission to advocate as a partner with the state and sister agencies. However, staff is aware of the multiplicity of groups that are in the process of adopting principles for reauthorization, and believes that the Commission should be selective in which documents it endorses. Staff also notes that these principles do not conflict with, and in fact support the 10 federal programs proposed by the National Surface Transportation Policy and Revenue Commission, which was the subject of the April 2008 ad hoc committee meeting. For reference, the national commission's recommended program structure is attached. Staff has overlaid that structure with the Commission projects as a demonstration of how it fits with the Commission priorities and also is reflected in the California Consensus principles. Endorsing this document allows the transportation interests in the state to go arm -in -arm with as unified a voice as possible to ensure the greatest return to California in the next bill.

Enhance mobility through congestion relief within and between metropolitan areas. California is home to the six of the 25 most congested metropolitan areas in the nation. These mega - regions represent a large majority of the population affected by travel delay and exposure to air pollutants. • Increase funding for enhanced capacity for all modes aimed at reducing congestion and promoting mobility in the most congested areas. • Provide increased state flexibility to implement performance -based infrastructure projects and public - private partnerships, including interstate tolling and innovative finance programs. • Consolidate federal programs by combining existing programs using needs, performance -based, and air quality criteria. • Expand project eligibility within programs and increase flexibility among programs. 5. Strengthen the federal commitment to safety and security, particularly with respect to rural roads and access. California recognizes that traffic safety involves saving lives, reducing injuries and optimizing the uninterrupted flow of traffic on the state's roadways. California has completed a comprehensive Strategic Highway Safety Plan. • Increase funding for safety projects aimed at reducing fatalities, especially on the secondary highway system where fatality rates are the highest. • Support behavioral safety programs — speed, occupant restraint, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, road -sharing, etc. -- through enforcement and education. • Address licensing, driver improvement, and adjudication issues and their impact on traffic safety. • Assess and integrate emerging traffic safety technologies, including improved data collection systems. • Fund a national program to provide security on our nation's transportation systems, including public transit. 6. Strengthen comprehensive environmental stewardship. Environmental mitigation is part of every transportation project and program. The federal role is to provide the tools that will help mitigate future impacts and to cope with changes to our environment. Integrate consideration of climate change and joint land use -transportation linkages into the planning process. Provide funding for planning and implementation of measures that have the potential to reduce emissions and improve health such as new vehicle technologies, alternative fuels, clean transit vehicles, transit -oriented development and increased transit usage, ride -sharing, and bicycle and pedestrian travel Provide finding to mitigate the air, water and other environmental impacts of transportation projects. 7. Streamline Project Delivery Extended processing time for environmental clearances, federal permits and reviews, etc. add to the cost of projects. Given constrained resources, it is all the more critical that these clearances and reviews be kept to the minimum possible consistent with good stewardship of natural resources. Increase opportunities for state stewardship through delegation programs for NEPA, air quality conformity, transit projects, etc. • Increase state flexibility for using at -risk design and design -build. -2- 05/28/2008 • 140 " A T T A C H M E N T 1 F I N A L D R A F T " E n s u r e t h a t f e d e r a l p r o j e c t o v e r s i g h t i s c o m m e n s u r a t e t o t h e a m o u n t o f f e d e r a l f u n d i n g .

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At its March 12, 2008 meeting, the Commission approved the evaluation criteria to be used to assist in the prioritization of station development for the Perris Valley Line (PVL) project. The PVL project currently identifies a proposal for seven new stations: Palymrita, UC Riverside, Fair Isle, Moreno Valley/March Field, Ramona, Downtown Perris, and South Perris. As the Committee will recall, the Small Starts program evaluates the Commission's project based on opening year projections for ridership, operating costs, and capital costs. Not all stations are required for start-up service in 2011. Thus, over the past few months, staff has been working with the consultants from STV Incorporated and Parsons Brinckerhoff Quade & Douglas (PBQ&D) to analyze various criteria by station to assist staff in developing a recommended list of stations that should be constructed for opening day service, and those which could be delayed to a later phase. Criteria considered includes: ridership projections, hours of user benefit, station costs, low income access, employment, land use, and community input. Staff's recommendation for stations to be operational at opening day is: • Palymrita — High ridership in model; serves Hunter Park/Hunter Technology Park and adjacent high-tech firms, industries, and research facilities as well as nearby residential and business communities.

Costs ❑ Stations also removed from Baseline Alt. ■ Significant O&M Cost Savings ❑ RCTC has major station upkeep costs ❑ Bus stations for Baseline Alt. are not significant O&M Costs ■ Major Loss of User Benefits for Most Scenarios ❑ Fewer stations means fewer riders, longer drives to stations 14 Cost Effectiveness Index Implications ■ Modifying station plans varies Capital & O&M Costs and User Benefits, resulting in unpredictable impacts on CEI ■ Best case phasing plan has only 2% positive impact on CEI ■ All others push project out of cost effective range AGENDA ITEM 12 COMMISSIONERS REPORT RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: July 9, 2008 TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: Commissioner Frank West and Daryl Busch SUBJECT: American Public Transportation Association Rail Conference 2008 BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The recent passage of Assembly Bill 1234 requires a report on trips that are made by an elected official on behalf of a public agency.
