BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Commission is being asked to consider the adoption of the Resolutions of
Necessity declaring its intent to acquire fee and easement interests in certain real
property through eminent domain proceedings for the construction and
maintenance of a high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane project on the SR-91 in the
city of Riverside (Project).
The immediate need for the property acquisition is to proceed with the construction
of the Project. The acquisitions are required for, and will benefit, the community
by reducing congestion, improving existing operational conditions, and enhancing
safety. The Project will complete the HOV lanes from the Orange County line to
the 60/91 /215 interchange.
Litigation guarantees were ordered from Stewart Title Guaranty Company to
confirm and identify the record owners of the parcels affected by the Project. The
Commission then served the affected property owners with a notice of the
Commission's decision to appraise the property.
The Commission had the properties appraised and made offers to the record
owners. Negotiations have been unsuccessful for the purchase of the properties;
however, the adoption of Resolutions of Necessity will not prevent negotiations
from continuing.
Since an agreement has not been reached with the owners of record, it may be
necessary to acquire the parcels described in Exhibit "A" by eminent domain. The
initiation of the eminent domain process is accomplished by the Commission's
adoption of a resolution of necessity.
Description of Property to be Acquired
CPNs 20402-1 and 20402-2 are owned by Golden State Mortgage Trust, Inc., a
California corporation. This property is improved with an office building and is
located at the northwest quadrant of Indiana Avenue and Jane Street in the city of
Riverside, Riverside County, California.
CPNs 20412-1, 20412-2 and 20412-3 are owned by William R. Austin. This
property is improved with an apartment complex and is located at the northeast
quadrant of Riverside Avenue and the westbound Arlington Avenue off ramp in the
city of Riverside, Riverside County, California.

The property owners were also invited to meet with Commission and Caltrans staff
to address any concerns they may have with the design of the construction in the
manner proposed and the necessity of the acquisition.
The above four required findings are addressed as follows:
1. Public Interest and Necessity Require the Proposed Project
The acquisition of the properties is necessary to construct the Project, which
will close the gap that exists in the HOV lanes on the SR-91 between the
Orange County line and the 60/91 /215 interchange, and will improve ramps,
bridges and access and modify interchanges in the city of Riverside,
Riverside County, California. Construction of the Project will reduce traffic
congestion and enhance safety.
2. The Project is Planned or Located in a Manner that will be Most Compatible
with the Greatest Public Good and the Least Private Injury
A thorough analysis was conducted to find the single best location for this
Project. Environmental analyses and findings indicated that this site uniquely
satisfies the engineering, public health, and environmental issues, and this
location is the most compatible with the greatest public good. It is also the
location with the least private injury.
3. The Real Property Sought to be Acquired is Necessary for the Proposed
Project
As described above, a careful analysis was performed regarding location and
what property and property rights were needed, and this parcel meets all the
desired characteristics for the construction of the improvements for the
Project.
4. The Offer of Just Compensation Has Been Made
An appraisal was prepared by Commission's appraiser, Valentine Appraisal
and Associates, to establish fair market value of the real property the
Commission is seeking to acquire from the property owned by Golden State
Mortgage Trust, Inc. An appraisal was prepared by Commission's appraiser,
R.P. Laurain and Associates, Inc., to establish fair market value of the real
property the Commission is seeking to acquire from the property owned by
William R. Austin. An offer of just compensation was made to each property
owner to purchase the real property, based on the approved appraisals, as
required by Section 7267.2 of the California Government Code. Although
negotiated settlements may still be possible, it would be appropriate to

newsletter was prepared and mailed to all residents, property owners, and
businesses within 500 feet of either side of the line with information on the various
meetings, opportunity for comment, and availability of the document for viewing.
Interested parties were also notified of this information via email.
Next Steps
Upon closure of the public comment period on May 24, 2010, all comments
received from the public and agency stakeholders will be compiled, evaluated, and
responses developed for incorporation into the final EIR. Under CEQA, the EIR and
the responses to comments will be presented to the Commission for review and
approval. At that time, the Commission will need to consider the certification of
the EIR. A notice of determination will be filed with the County Clerk within five
days of Commission approval. This initiates a 30-day challenge period under
CEQA.

Sincerely,

Highgrove Metrolink comments over the last eight years!
Please look at the dates of the following statements:
Excerpts prepared Jan. 14, 2010 (Not in sequence)
Ann Mayer, current Executive Director RCTC: (Press Enterprise, Feb. 15, 2009)
"We have to put stops where they will serve the most people".
Marion Ashley, Riverside County Supervisor: (Letter, Oct.14, 2009)
"Over the course of more than a decade, the Riverside County Transportation Commission has
considered and repeatedly rejected the request of Highgrove residents for Metrolink service."
Bob Buster, Riverside County Supervisor: (Statement Oct. 11, 2006)
"Highgrove is at the fulcrum, the pivot point of transportation between the 2 counties. You can
not ignore the geographic reality that both the freeway and major rail lines and there is
available land that will soon be snapped up for other uses. This is a key sight for the future of the
Inland Empire
Bob Buster, Riverside County Supervisor: (Letter July 17, 2006)
"Highgrove is the right place for a regional, intermodal station, at the junction of the main lines
and the 215 freeway. Highgrove still has ample land and the community and Grand Terrace
want the station".
Mary Crayton, RCTC Commissioner from Canyon Lake: (RCTC meeting Feb. 11, 2009)
Stated that she "was not satisfied why Highgrove has not been considered and that they never
went to Highgrove to look at the property". She stated: "they should consider the property in
Highgrove".
Roger Berg, RCTC Commissioner from Beaumont: (RCTC meeting Feb. 11, 2009)
"The Highgrove station may have some merit, more parking is 'needed and gridlock will only get
worse".
James Potts, RCTC Commissioner from San Jacinto: (RCTC meeting Feb. 11, 2009)
"It is the right project for the right time and it would open up other areas where seniors could go
instead ofjust driving locally".
Robin Low, RCTC Commissioner from Hemet: (RCTC meeting Feb. 11, 2009)
"Recognized the amount of work that has been done on this project and said they need to revisit
this idea".
Jeff Stone, Riverside County'Supervisor: (RCTC meeting Feb. 11, 2009)
Was sympathetic to the concerns of those living near the track and said that the 1-21 S is reaching
capacity and that people need to get out of their cars, onto the tracks and to their destinations.
(Eight years later)
City of Grand Terrace: (Letter Dec. 29.2009)
"The City of Grand Terrace continues to believe that a Metrolink stop in Highgrove would
benefit the city and its residents".
Tony Petta, First Mayor of Grand Terrace 1978: (Letter June 23, 2006)
"I encourage you and your staff to seriously consider building a Metrolink Station in

"It's absolutely favorable to our community"
Hugh J. Grant: Former Chairman San Bernardino L. A. F. C. O., Former S. A. N. B. A. G.
and Omnitrans Boards: (Letter June 21, 2006)
"I have become aware of the important need to situate a Metrolink stop in our neighboring
community of Highgrove, in Riverside County. Due to the fact that the nearest stops at this time
are in San Bernardino and Riverside, servicing the transportation needs for the large population
in between, with valid predictions of sizable increases in the near future, seem to me to be self-
evident".
Southern California Association of Governments (S. C. A. G.): (Aug. 30, 2007)
"In the latest State of the Region Report, Southern California received an "F" for transportation
mobility. The region has been the most congested in the country for the past two decades".
JoAnn Johnson Manager Grand Terrace Senior Center: (Letter Feb. 23, 2009)
"I strongly support a Metrolink Station in Highgrove and I know that many others in Grand
Terrace do also".
William A. Shopoff, The Shopoff Group: (letter Feb. 23, 2009)
"Since Highgrove is a natural railroad junction point where two railroad lines meet between
Riverside and San Bernardino, a commuter train stop in Highgrove would benefit the entire
region. This location is only ''/_• mile east of the congested I-215 Freeway that has exits at Center
Street. It is also only about one mile northeast of the new S381 million dollar 60/91/215
interchange that was just completed, and about 3 miles south of the I-215/I--10 interchange. Both
major interchanges are between Riverside and San Bernardino and the Highgrove location is
also between Riverside and San Bernardino".
Anthony Mize, Builder: (Letter Feb. 24, 2009)
"It is our opinion that the junction point of the Metrolink train traffic between the City of
Riverside and the City of San Bernardino and the Perris Valley Line is a very logical location for
a new station. In this day of "NIMBY" on just about everything, it would seem to us that if a
community wants to work together to revitalize itself by embracing something like this then
RCTC should give it careful, thoughtful consideration" .
Kirk Wallace, Builder: (Letter Oct. 21, 2009)
"We, feel this station would be very beneficial to the community not only because of the
established residents but with the future development that will impact the area of Highgrove".
Bobbie Kay Forbes, Terra Loma Real Estate: (Letter Feb. 25, 2009)
"As a local Realtor I believe the area would benefit having a Metrolink Station in Highgrove.
There are many people in our community that use the Metrolink a few times a week to get to LA
for work When I am showing property to people from out of the area they will ask about the
location of Metrolink stations. And as more people in the area are financially stressed by the
economy and the price of commuting they will be more encouraged to use Metrolink if it is closer
to home".
Byron Matteson 14 year Mayor of Grand Terrace: (Letter June 23, 2006)
"I think the commuter trains will gain even more popularity in the near future as our area
continues to experience rapid growth and our freeway systems become more and more
congested. Proper planning is essential in being able to handle these future transportation needs
and I hope the new Highgrove Station will be approved soon, to help alleviate some of these
ongoing traffic problems".

the tracks are upgraded for commuter service on the San Jacinto branch".
Robert and Nancy Rice, Retired Highgrove residents: (Letter Feb. 20, 2009)

William H. Addington, Civil Engineer since 1975-Retired: (Public comments Dec.11, 2009)
it is really important to Grand Terrace, Loma Linda and Highgrove to have a station. The
opportunity is there now and if passed by, it won't be available. The site is well located and the

WRONG TRACK - WRONG LOCATION!
Transportation agency ignores existing commuter rail destinations!
By R. A. "Barney" Barnett March 1, 2010
For the last 8 years the agency responsible for making transportation decisions in our area continues to
completely ignore the requests from the people in the region when it comes to commuter rail station locations
and destinations.
On Jan. 25, 2010, the Riverside County Transportation Commission Ad Hoc committee rejected our requests to
build a Metrolink station right next to the track where commuter trains pass by 7 days a week between San
Bernardino and Riverside.
Instead, RCTC wants to build a station only % mile away, right next to a track where there no commuter trains
at all! Does this seem logical? Is this really true?
Track layout: At Highgrove just south of Main St. at the San Bernardino/Riverside County line, the tracks
split. One track goes toward Perris and the other 3 tracks go toward Riverside. This split results in 19 acres of
pie shaped vacant land between these 2 different railroads. The Perris Valley Line track is on the east side of the
19 acres and the 3 BNSF tracks are on the west side. RCTC wants to establish new commuter train service
between Riverside and Perris but they need a U shaped curved track to reverse their northward direction from
Riverside to Highgrove, to a southward direction from Highgrove to Perris.
Without this curve to connect the 2 railroads at this location, no commuter trains will be able to operate between
Riverside and Perris unless the engineer changes ends.
Why changing ends is necessary: All train movements are operated by an engineer located in the front of the
train. But commuter trains have the capability to be operated from either end. The commuter train engineer can
control the train from the engine or from the rear coach compartment to go in the opposite direction. The engine
stays attached but pushes the coaches instead of pulls them. But before going in the opposite direction, the
engineer has to walk to the opposite end of the train and a brake test must be made by the crew to visually check
the brakes to see if they work properly. This procedure can be very time consuming.
In the future, when the engineer is operating the train from the engine going northward from Riverside to
Highgrove for example, after the curved track is built, he would be able to stay in his seat and go around the
new curve to head back southward toward Perris.
This would save a lot of time and we have no objection to this portion of the plan.
PROBLEM: STATION LOCATION
HIGHGROVE IS THE RIGHT TRACK AND THE RIGHT LOCATION!
Highgrove already has commuter trains 7 days a week, on the west side of the same vacant 19 acres
needed for the curved track. One station platform at Highgrove could accommodate commuters now, by
just stopping some of the existing commuter trains, and the same station platform could be used to serve
future commuters to Perris when the Perris Valley Line is completed. The distance between these two
locations is only % mile but they have different destinations.
The RCTC's plan does not include stopping any of the existing commuter trains between Riverside and
San Bernardino. These trains will continue to go right through Highgrove without stopping even after the
Perris Valley Line track is finished!
Transportation efficiency:
During a one year construction period of the Perris Valley Line railroad for example, there will be 3,224
commuter trains between Riverside and San Bernardino that pass through Highgrove. Some of these trains
could stop for passengers on the BNSF main line on the west side of the 19 acres. One piece of property could
be used for both the station and the curve and the station would be on straight track and not on the curve!
Passenger speed is 60 MPH at this location.
$232.69 Million dollars of our Federal Tax Money and Measure "A" tax money (RCTC figure), is estimated
for this 24 mile upgrade, but the plan that RCTC wants, ignores the existing Metrolink commuter trains between

$232.69 Million of our tax dollars should be spent to benefit the entire region on both sides of
the county line and not just 2 locations within Riverside County. 3,224 commuter trains per year
will literally take thousands of vehicles off our freeways.
Please write or e-mail any or all of the above representatives and send me a copy to add to our 8
year long paper trail! Our voices must be "heard" in writing rather than just a phone call.

RE: (PVL) Highgrove Metrolink Station
Dear Mr. Standiford:
The Northside Improvement Association, the oldest neighborhood group in Riverside, bounded by the Santa Ana River ,
Riverside County/San Bernardino County line, Santa Fe/Union Pacific RR line and First St. to Market St. in the city and county
of Riverside, would again like to express our support of a Metrolink Station in Highgrove to serve commuters on both the current
Riverside to San Bernardino route and the proposed Perris Valley route. The current population and projected growth in
population along this northern edge of Riverside County would greatly benefit from a Metrolink stop in this area. The 215/91
freeway and the numerous railroad lines make this area a transportation corridor through Highgrove that connects the Inland
Empire to anywhere in almost any direction. A station in this area would benefit people on both sides of the county line and could
gamer greater support by combining efforts. Exploding regional answers to regional problems is commendable and while the
proposed Penis Valley line will provide access for the western part of the county to reach Riverside, a station at Highgrove
would allow access throughout the Inland Empire. This also works in the opposite direction, allowing people from all over
southern California the means of accessing the ammenities, shopping and other entertainments available in western Riverside
County.
There appear to be reasonable opportunities available to create this vision of a regional transportation hub in Highgove and by a
unanimous positive vote of the membership at the regular meeting of Jan. 11, 2010, the Northside Improvement Association
again expresses their support for a Metrolink station in Highgrove serving current trains and future trains to Perris Valley.

Dear Mr. Standiford:
RE: Perris Valley Line
I am writing to update you on the results of a discussion about Metrolink at our October 13`"
meeting. As you know, there is a great deal of interest about the locations of the Metrolink train
stops planned for our area.
While there is great community support for high quality public mass transit, there is also a
growing resistance to having a stop at UCR on Watkins Dr.
We believe a better location for a second stop would be in Highgrove where there is more room
for parking and would provide a significantly smaller impact to existing residential areas.
Our meeting was standing room only and by a unanimous show of hands, we voted to support a
train stop in Highgrove. We remain committed to the Perris Valley Line setting the standard for a
workable transportation solution and to enhancing our community's assets. I offer this feedback
for your consideration.

RE: Perris Valley Line (PVL)
Dear Mr. Standiford;
Over 4 years ago on October 13, 2005, the University Neighborhood Association
submitted a letter to RCTC supporting the concept of routing the PVL through
Highgrove and of establishing a Metrolink station in Highgrove.
Our community continues to support this concept because that location seems to offer
greater overall flexibility. In addition to servicing Metrolink traffic from the PVL, the
Highgrove station establishes services to existing Riverside and San Bernardino traffic,
and opens opportunities to increase the number of potential riders through the
expanded capacity and the flexibility to serve them.
Further, Highgrove has adequate land for a station and parking. Plus, the people of
Highgrove want the station and support the PVL.
Most importantly: Expanded passenger rail options maximize taxpayer dollars. The
development of rail corridors must be looked at in a context that is bigger than a single
project. The PVL provides an opportunity to do that with the Highgrove option.
Please take under advisement that while the UNA supports the Highgrove station
concept, our own concerns remain. The PVL impact on our neighborhood continues to
attract the attention of a growing number of our neighbors.
As you know we have several sensitive receptor uses immediately adjacent to the PVL
right of way.
Within 500 feet of this project, we have
1. two elementary schools,
2. two city parks, a county park, and
3. several day care facilities.
We have a number of public safety concerns
1. the impact of noise, vibration, and air pollution on health.
2. the safety of our school children due to the increased rail traffic.
3. public safety due to hazardous materials now being carried by BNSF.

INTENTIONAL DELETION OR HONEST MISTAKE? April 14, 2010
The notification sent out by RCTC about the Draft Environmental Impact Report for the Perris
Valley Line stated: "The Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is ready for public
review and comment." According to the notice there were copies available at the RCTC office
and 4 libraries: Riverside, Moreno Valley, Perris and Woodcrest. Noticeably absent from this
list was the Highgrove library that is only `/2 mile from the Metrolink site requested by the public
for the last 8 years. The first Highgrove library was built in1893, the present one was built in
1981 and is part of the Riverside County library system and we are currently building a new
Highgrove library due to open at the end of this year. The present Library would also be
convenient for residents from Grand Terrace since the Highgrove library is only mile from
Grand Terrace even though it is in Riverside County.
The following week after receiving the notice, I went to the Riverside Public Library on April 5,
2010 to look at the EIR but there was no EIR available and no one knew anything about it
(Library assistant, Sharon DeRuntz). This may have been an oversight but it was very frustrating
that no EIR was available as advertised, after driving to Riverside and paying for parking.
HISTORY LESSON FOR RCTC: Highgrove has existed as a station on the railroad since
1886. For over 124 years this location has been known on the Railroad as mile post 7 or
"Highgrove". But RCTC is ignoring Highgrove's historic past and wants to re -name this location
"Citrus Connection". Since Highgrove first started in 1886, how many people will know where
"Citrus Connection" is located since it is only shown on RCTC's map? On Jan. 25, 2010, I
personally showed the RCTC staff an old timetable dated 1910 where Highgrove is shown
between Colton and Riverside.
For 8 years RCTC has intentionally ignored Highgrove and the voice of the people, by ignoring
their letters, public comments and city resolutions that support building a station right next to the
track that has existing commuter train service with other commuter rail connections at both San
Bernardino and Riverside.
RCTC is only concerned about commuter rail service in Riverside County between Riverside
and Perris. They continue to ignore the existing trains that connect the 2 counties that operate
through Highgrove 7 days a week and instead they want to use our tax money to build a station
platform where there are no commuter trains and not even stop any of the existing trains when
the Perris Valley Line is completed!
All that has ever been requested is to build the station platform at Highgrove where the
station will become part of the Metrolink system that will connect the 2 counties instead of
building a station on a dead end track % mile away at the Palmyrita Ave. location.

OK, I am a bit loopy. On page 65, there is a table listing who owns each parcel. Several LLCs, which makes it hard to
see who the real owner is. LNR owns the property for the March Air Base station, bastards. I think they are listed on the
PVL site as a partner. Conflict of interest?

Federal, state, and local government reimbursements are on a reimbursement basis,
and the Commission will receive these revenues as the projects are completed and
invoiced to the respective agencies.
The operating statement shows the Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF)
revenues remitted for the second quarter by Western Riverside Council of
Governments (WRCOG) at 36% of the budget. This does not include the revenues
of $166,523 for December 2009, which were received in January 2010.
Other revenues include a property transfer agreement with the city of Riverside for
proposed access easement on the State Route 91 /Van Buren Boulevard interchange
project.
The administrative and program/project categories are in line overall with the
expectations of the budget with the following exceptions:
• Office lease and operations are slightly over as a result of the rent payment
due by the first of each month. The January 2010 rent was paid in
December 2009.
• Right of way management expenditures reflect an increased level of
abatement and repairs in response to more intensive code enforcement
activities by the county of Riverside and local jurisdictions as well as active
voluntary abatement to the Commission properties.
Intergovernmental distributions are expended as one-time LTF payments made
based on claims submitted by Coachella Valley Association of Governments
(CVAG) and WRCOG. As of the end of the second quarter, claims had not been
submitted by CVAG or WRCOG. Any unused funds in this category are related to
the planning and programming departmental expenditures.
Capital outlay reports a negative amount. This resulted from the estimated
expenditure accrual for office and computer improvements made as of
June 30, 2009, but not yet invoiced and paid through December 31, 2009.
Interest expenditures are based on variable rates, which are currently low, while
principal payments are made annually in June.
Operating transfer in and operating transfer out are significant as of the second
quarter due to the one-time transfers from the Western County Capital Projects
fund to the Debt Service fund and the Commercial Paper fund to establish the Debt
Reserve fund and retire a portion of the commercial paper.

construction after Federal Highway Administration approve the funds, which was
submitted in February 2010, with construction forecasted to start July 2010.
SR-91 HOV Project - Caltrans is performing design and is on schedule;
expenditures are on budget although billings from the state are lagging.
Commission staff is performing right of way acquisition work with consultant
assistance and is also on schedule; right of way capital expenditures should
accelerate through the remainder of the year.
SR-74 Curve Widening - The NTP on design was delayed due to contract
negotiation with the engineering firm. Engineering is now proceeding, and
construction is expected to start in FY 2010/1 1.
Mid County Parkway - Right of way acquisitions have been curtailed as property
development has subsided, and the critical need to acquire property for protection
has been delayed due to the substantial rescoping of the project.
SR-91 Corridor Improvement Project (Design Build) - A pre -award audit of the
project and construction manager consultant was conducted during the first quarter
of FY 2009/10. A limited NTP was issued in October 2009, and full NTP is not
anticipated until the fourth quarter of FY 2009/10. Updating of the toll feasibility
financial model as well as Commission approval of the locally preferred alternative
is being sought before a full contract NTP will be awarded. Right of way
acquisition work was delayed due to the limited NTP but has now started.
1-15 Corridor Improvement Project - Work in the environmental phase continues.
An update of the toll feasibility model commenced in February. Results are
expected by summer 2010 which will possibly influence the project scope
definition or result in a phased construction approach.
71 /91 Interchange Project - The preliminary engineering and environmental phase
is scheduled to be completed fall 2010.
Rail Engineering/Construction/Right of Way/Land
Perris Valley Line - The NTP for engineering services was issued October 2009 and
right of way acquisition has not occurred.
Riverside Downtown Metrolink Layover Facility - The consultant selection process
was completed in March 2010, and a contract award for engineering is included as
a separate item for this Commission agenda.

REVISION TO AGENDA ITEM 9C
Additions are noted by Bold Italics, Deletions are noted by Str+keth-reugh
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
April 14, 2010
TO:
Riverside County Transportation Commission
FROM:
Western Riverside County Programs and Projects Committee
Edda Rosso, Capital Projects Manager
Richard Bryan, Bechtel Manager of Rail Projects
Erik Galloway, Bechtel Project Coordinator
THROUGH:
Anne Mayer, Executive Director
SUBJECT:
Agreement for Environmental Document Preparation, Preliminary
and Final Engineering Design, and Construction Support Services
for the Riverside Downtown Metrolink Layover Facility Project
WESTERN RIVERSIDE COUNTY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS COMMITTEE AND
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Commission to:
1) Approve the consultant selection process and award
Agreement No. 10-33-031-00 to HDR Engineering Inc. (HDR) to provide
environmental document preparation, preliminary engineering, final
engineering design, and construction support services for the Riverside
Downtown Metrolink layover facility project in the amount of $2,140,325
plus a contingency amount of $259,675 to cover potential changes for a
total not to exceed amount of $2.4 million;
2) Authorize the Chair, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the
agreement on behalf of the Commission;
3) Authorize the Executive Director to approve contingency work up to the total
not to exceed amount as requested for the project; and
4) Authorize the Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to
execute non -funding related agreements necessary for the design and
construction of the project.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Riverside Downtown Metrolink station acts as a layover facility for a number of
Metrolink trains operating on the Riverside, Inland Empire -Orange County, and
91 lines. Since the station is at the end of the line, each evening most of these
trains need to be stored and serviced overnight at the station. The station has the
capability to store train sets on the station tracks on both the northern and
Agenda Item 9C
southern sides of the station, which is shown in detail in Attachment 1. In
addition, there is currently a single storage track on the northern side to store trains
and two short tracks on the southern side along Commerce Street to store and
service trains overnight. The designated storage tracks on the southern side
include the necessary utilities, train staff parking, and storage of consumables for
train maintenance and operations. Currently, all available storage space at the
Riverside Downtown Metrolink station is being utilized and there is limited flexibility
for current staging of trains and no opportunity for adding train service without
developing storage capacity at the station. This project seeks to expand this
capacity on available Commission -owned property.
Working together for the past year, the Southern California Regional Rail Authority
(SCRRA), in conjunction with Commission staff, performed a conceptual
engineering study to expand the Riverside Downtown Metrolink station to allow for
the layover, cleaning, and light maintenance of the current train sets and to
accommodate future trains. In addition, the design allowed for the connection of
the Perris Valley Line (PVL) with both the current access on the Burlington Northern
Santa Fe Railroad (BNSF) third track and future access on the proposed fourth main
track. The facility will be designed to accommodate layover capacity for all the
routes serving Riverside.
The proposed facility would place a second track within the existing northern
layover area to allow for the proper storage and light maintenance of two train sets
(six to seven cars per set) with connections to the necessary utilities. This phase
of the work is relatively straightforward and can be expedited to meet existing
demands and allow more flexibility with trains parked at the station.
The major portion of the expansion will occur on the southern side of the BNSF
tracks along Commerce Street. The existing layover tracks will be extended across
Mission Inn Avenue onto Commission -owned property and extend northerly to
3`d Street. This expansion will include the placement of three sets of layover tracks
with the capability of storing five train sets (six to seven cars per set). This facility
will include the necessary utilities and infrastructure for the secure layover of the
trains. This portion of the project will require close coordination with the city of
Riverside and the Public Utilities Commission for the necessary grade crossing
improvements at Mission Inn Avenue. The project will be designed for the full
length to 3rd Street, but the construction of the facility will be phased depending on
funding conditions and the schedule for the 3`d Street grade separation project.
Discussions were held between SCRRA and Commission staff to determine how
the design of the layover expansion could be expedited, especially for the northern
area. It was agreed that the Commission has the capabilities to expedite the
Agenda Item 9C
procurement of a design engineer to perform the environmental document
preparation, preliminary engineering, final engineering design, and construction
support services.
Selection Process
A request for qualifications for environmental document preparation, preliminary
engineering, final engineering design, and construction support services for the
Riverside Downtown Metrolink layover facility project was issued on
November 20, 2009, and a pre -submittal conference was held on
December 8, 2009, to present the project and answer any questions for the
interested parties. The consultants' statements of qualifications (SOQ) were
submitted on December 22, 2009.
An evaluation committee was appointed to review the two submitted SOQ's
received and to conduct interviews of the firms. The evaluation committee
members included representatives from the Commission staff, Bechtel, SCRRA, and
the city of Riverside. After evaluation of the SOQ's by the evaluation committee,
both firms were notified on January 11, 2010, that interviews would be
conducted. The firms included:
• HDR Engineering, Inc.
• JL Patterson & Associates, Inc.
Interviews of firms were conducted on January 28, 2010, and HDR was selected
by the evaluation committee as the most qualified firm.
Commission staff requested that HDR submit a scope, cost, and schedule proposal
for environmental document preparation, preliminary engineering, final engineering
design, and construction support services for the Riverside Downtown Metrolink
layover facility project. Staff received HDR's scope, cost, and schedule proposal
on February 26, 2010, and negotiations commenced on March 1, 2010.
Subsequent meetings were held on March 10 and March 17, 2010, to review
revisions made by HDR and to continue the negotiation process.
During the three weeks of negotiations, HDR submitted three proposals consisting
of its scope, cost, and schedule. A finalized summary of the scope is included in
Attachment 2. Table A summarizes the submittals and the associated costs.

These austerity measures along with other clarifications in the scope of work have
resulted in a $87,349 decrease in the cost from HDR's March 10, 2010. This total
is only for the layover facilities and does not include the cost for the BNSF fourth
main.
Tho Commi✓cion is responsible for completing the CalifoFnia Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) cnv'iroRmeRtal elcaFaaec for tic 13P1SF fourth mail} track as an item of
. nle + ... *". . ,.* *c.... W"cc* "e*:•.v n BNSF anti tlae -- - r" si Per the
agreement with BNSF, the fourth r maintrack from Downtown Riverside to
Highgrove is not needed for the PVL project and has been deleted from the PVL
project scope. At the March 17, 2010 negotiations meeting, HDR was directed to
Agenda Item 9C
provide a separate scope and cost to perform the environmental document
preparation for the BNSF fourth main track and/or. This work will nccd to be
complctcd to accommodato BNSF's construction of tho future fourth main track
and for a future tail track into the Commerce Street facility, which would allow for
layover of PVL commuter trains. Commission staff has learned that since the
fourth main track will be constructed by BNSF, environmental clearance by the
Commission will not be necessary. However, since the future tail track project will
be completed by the Commission, incorporating this scope into this contract will
result in savings to the Commission, since it will not require an additional
procurement process and the necessary environmental field work can be performed
concurrently with that for the Commerce Street facility, thereby reducing additional
field mobilization costs. The scope and cost for this work will remain separate
from the layover facilities. HDR provided the scope and cost for this work on
March 18, 2010, and it has been reviewed by staff and found to be within the
range of costs for similar type of work on other Commission projects. The cost for
this work is $558,690.
Based on the results of the evaluation committee and completion of the
negotiations, staff recommends that Agreement No. 10-33-031-00 be awarded to
HDR to perform environmental document preparation, preliminary engineering, final
engineering design, and construction support services for the Riverside Downtown
Metrolink layover facility project in the city of Riverside based on the submitted
scope, schedule, and cost for the base amount of $2,140,325 plus a contingency
amount of $259,675 to cover potential changes for a total not to exceed amount
of $2.4 million.

negotiations are nearing completion and are forecast to be complete by April 15,
2010. The design engineer for the NMC parking structure was Stantec Architects.
The contract for construction of the PMM facility was awarded to LA Engineering
on November 12, 2008, with an authorized amount of $5.4 million. Work started
on January 5, 2009, and was substantially completed on January 10, 2010. Close
out activities, including change order negotiations, are underway and are forecast
to be complete by June 30, 2010. Psomas was the design engineer for the PMM
facility.
Numerous changes on both construction projects and the delayed start of
construction work on the PMM facility have increased the effort required by the
construction manager (CM).
Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $345,000 was approved by the Commission
on September 9, 2009, and provided for additional services through the then
estimated completion and contract closeout date of March 2010, for NMC parking
structure and PMM facility. The services required in Amendment No. 1 are
described below:
At the North Main Corona Parking Structure
• Additional field testing services for:
o Testing of unsuitable material at the east road for replacement of a
section of Blaine Street; and
o Unanticipated costs for steel welding inspection for the pedestrian
bridge.
• Extensive revisions to the plans to accommodate unforeseen field conditions
and to improve the functionality of the parking structure. This included
revisions to the south road to widen and improve the grade from that of the
original plan.
• Completion of design elements such as closed circuit television (CCTV),
which were only generally described in the bid documents, and additional
engineering was required to upgrade the CCTV to a digital system that will
provide an improved path for future Commission CCTV expansion.
• Unanticipated source inspection requirements for precast concrete panels
that were fabricated in Bakersfield and required source inspection to
minimize the risk of delay due to quality issues.
• Construction delays due to storm water interceptor conflicts with existing
storm water drainage and installation of waterline blow off valves in three
locations that prolonged the schedule at NMC parking structure and resulted
in extensive field -engineered revisions.
• The close out process has been extended due to the effort to evaluate
change orders for the construction delays described above.

o Electrical revisions that were identified in Amendment No. 1 have
required extensive changes to the construction details, which were
coordinated by the CM and underestimated in Amendment No. 1.
o CCTV revisions and unforeseen difficulties in configuration and
integration of the system with the Commission security control center
at the Riverside Downtown station have required more resources than
was anticipated.
o The interface between the newly installed traffic signals at
4"' Street/SR 74 and C Street and BNSF's grade crossing signals was
not completely coordinated during design and has resulted in
additional time by the CM to assist in resolution on this issue.
• Revisions to the temporary construction easements along the properties on
C Street were required.
o Revising details for masonry retaining walls, boundary fencing and
gates, and landscaping changes have required extensive time by the
CM to coordinate and resolve.
• The fencing required along the north and south boundaries of the site was
redesigned to comply with the city of Perris' Conditions of Approval. These
requirements were not detailed in the original plans. The CM prepared the
details for these changes.
• Late requirements by Riverside Transit Agency (RTA) for digital bus signage
required additional resources for the design of signage supports and
provision for electrical power. The CM developed these revisions and
coordinated its review and approval by the design engineer.
• Improvements to the platform design were undertaken by the CM to
facilitate maintenance.
• Numerous changes described in Amendments No. 1 and 2 need to be
negotiated and settled with the contractor.
Time Adjustment
The time set forth in the original agreement was insufficient due to the later than
anticipated start of the PMM facility project. The original completion date of CM
services of August 31, 2009, was revised to March 31, 2010, by Amendment
No. 1. As CCTV configuration and traffic signal interface issues remain at PMM
facility, this amendment will further extend the time to August 31, 2010, to
complete the work at PMM facility and to cover charges that might extend beyond
the completion of CM services.
Recovery of Costs
Much of the CM's work at NMC parking structure and PMM facility has been
completing missing design details or correcting design errors. For example, delays
in the construction at the NMC parking structure were largely due to incomplete

the PMM facility with a 141-space park and ride lot, a bus plaza with eight loading
bays, closed circuit television (CCTV) system, and a transit platform for future
Metrolink access. Also included as required by the city of Perris were street
improvements along C Street, a traffic signal at the intersection of C Street and SR-
74, undergrounding of Southern California Edison (SCE) and Verizon utilities,
widening of San Jacinto Avenue, and landscaping.
The project was advertised on October 1, 2008, and bids were opened on
November 3, 2008, with LA Engineering submitting the lowest responsive and
responsible bid for the project. At its November 12, 2008 meeting, the
Commission awarded Agreement No. 09-33-046-00 to LA Engineering for
construction of the PMM facility with a contract amount of $4,904,841, with a
contingency of $495,159 for a total not to exceed contract expenditure
authorization of $5.4 million.
Additions of Scope
A number of major scope changes occurred during construction that will require an
increase in the contract authorization. These are items outside the normal scope of
contingency and include the following:
1. Modify the platform design to accommodate future operations by the Orange
Empire Railway Museum (GERM) at the PMM facility. This out of scope
change was requested by the city of Perris. The total estimated cost for this
additional work is $127,000;
2. Widen San Jacinto Avenue between C Street and the Burlington Northern
Santa Fe Railway (BNSF) tracks by seven feet to its ultimate width, at the
request of the city of Perris. The total estimated amount for this additional
work is $36,000;
3. Lengthen the platform from 800 feet to 900 feet to accommodate full train
length plus a safety margin, per updated SCRRA standards. The total
amount for this change is $86,000; and
4. Placement of digital bus information signs at the request of RTA. The total
amount for this change is $13,000.
The total of these external scope changes amounts to $262,000 for which
additional authorization for expenditure is sought.
Additional External Scope and Estimated Costs
Item 1 - OERM
At the request of the city of Perris, on behalf of GERM, modifications were made to
the new platform to accommodate OERM's future operations at the transit center.

contract change order (CCO). An understanding was reached with RTA to
reimburse these costs, which are estimated to be $11,300. The CCO is based on
actual cost of time and materials and a contingency amount of $1,700. The added
estimated allotment for this item is $13,000. Construction management and
Commission staff costs are not included in this amount. The actual construction
cost is reimbursable from RTA.
SUMMARY:
The total of the increased expenditure authorization is $262,000. However, an
estimated amount of $140,000 (for items 1 and 4) is reimbursable from the city of
Perris and RTA, leaving an estimated net cost increase of $122,000 to be funded
by Rail Proposition 1 B funds and Measure A funds. The FY 2009/10 rail capital
budget includes $5 million in right of way acquisition expenditures for the Riverside
Downtown facility that are not expected to be expended during the year.
Accordingly, staff recommends the Commission approve an expenditure transfer of
$262,000 from the layover facility project to the PMM facility project.
ADDITIONAL EXPENDITURE AUTHORIZATION

ITEM: DESCRIPTION EST COST CONT TOTAL
1 OERM $121,00 ..001 $6,000.00— $127,000.00

3 W _ Lengthen platform _. ` $81,500.00 $4,500.00` $86,000 00.`'
4 RTA Bus Signs $11,300 00 $1,700.00 $13,000 00
? $262,000.00'
SS 1D0$96
This adjusts the total expenditure authorization for the PMM facility to
$ 5, 662,000.
Current Project Status
The PMM facility was opened to the public on January 10, 2010, and bus service
started the same day. Staff continues to work with LA Engineering on punch list
items, contract close-out and claims issues. Staff proceeded with the
implementation of the four listed items utilizing existing contingency. With the
addition of the funds requested in this agenda item, staff currently forecasts that
the project will be completed within the originally approved contract amount and
the revised contingency. However, there are final issues to be resolved with the
contractor and a further request for contingency may be needed.

In researching the three options, it was determined that DSL service would not
provide the bandwidth necessary for optimum viewing of the camera data resulting
in a degraded security installation. It was also determined that high bandwidth
internet service, while of sufficient capacity for proper camera operation, was
prohibitively expensive at over $2,700 per month.
The third option was a mutual agreement with Sunesys where, in exchange for a
no cost license agreement for the installation of a dark fiber conduit crossing
Commission -owned property at the PMM facility, fiber optic bandwidth would be
made available by Sunesys at no cost to the Commission.
Sunesys is a company that provides 'dark fiber' or fiber optic services to customers
in the Perris area. .Sunesys network is also located along Vine Street in Riverside,
which means that the connection to the Riverside Downtown M'etrolink station
should be relatively simple. Accordingly, it was determined by staff that a
connection to the Sunesys fiber optic system could be made that would provide
sufficient bandwidth necessary for viewing the real-time video images at the
Riverside Downtown Metrolink station.
In reviewing this option, staff also noted that no other fiber optic company is in the
area, therefore, the only competition to Sunesys would be the previously
mentioned high bandwidth internet connection.
Staff recommends that the Commission approve the mutual agreements with
Sunesys for the no cost license agreement and no cost provision of fiber optic
services. Approval of this recommendation will allow staff to complete the security
installation at the PMM facility and provide security services in a most cost
efficient manner.

6.3.2.2. Repair and Restoration, if SUNESYS, its agents or contractors cause any
damage to RCTC's roads, infrastructure or other property and
improvements (collectively "Property") in connection with the exercise
of this License, SUNESYS shall repair and restore the Property to its
original condition prior to SUNESYS' use of the RCTC Facility pursuant
to this License. SUNESYS shall perform the repair and restoration
required hereunder prior to the expiration of this license, or within three
(3) days of the earlier termination of SUNESYS' rights hereunder.
Relocation Right. Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement to the contrary, RCTC
shall have the right to require that SUNESYS permanently relocate the System from the

any time during the Term if deemed necessary by RCTC pursuant to the provisions of this
Article 7. In order to exercise this right of relocation, RCTC shall deliver to SUNESYS at
least six (6) months prior written notice (the "Relocation Notice") setting forth RCTC's
exercise of such right and a description of the proposed relocation site (the "Proposed Sits").
The Proposed Site shall be subject to SUNESYS' reasonable approval as a site feasible for
the operation of System. SUNESYS shall have the right to disapprove of the new site if in
SUNESYS' good faith judgment the new site will not be suitable for SUNESYS' use and
operations as contemplated on the Effective Date. RCTC shall reimburse SUNESYS for the
reasonable costs incurred by SUNESYS in relocating the System at RCTC's request.
7. Permits and Regulations. SUNESYS shall comply with all applicable laws, ordinances and
regulations, including but not limited to all applicable environmental and safety
requirements, and shall be responsible for securing any required approvals, permits and
authorizations from any federal, state, or local agencies, at SUNESYS' sole cost and
expense.
8. No Transfer or Assignment. This License is personal to the SUNESYS. Any attempt to
transfer or assign this License without prior written consent from ROTC, except to a person
controlling, controlled by or under common control with SUNESYS or acquiring
substantially all of the assets of Sunesys used to provide services in the market in which the
System is located shall terminate it.
9. Lien Free Condition. SUNESYS shall not cause or permit any liens to be placed against the
RCTC Facility or against RCTC's other property as a result of construction, installation, or
maintenance by or behalf of SUNESYS. In the event of the filing of any such liens,
SUNESYS shall promptly (but in no event more than thirty (30) days) cause such liens to be
removed or bonded off the RCTC Facility.
10. Indemnification.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, SUNESYS shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless
RCTC, its officers, agents, and employees from and against any claims, damages, costs,
expenses, or liabilities (collectively, "Claims") arising out of or in any way connected with
this License, including without limitation, Claims for loss or damage to any property or for

In November 2003, the Commission approved Agreement No. 04-51-030-00 to
Epic for Phase 1 of the property management support services project, focusing
primarily on identifying all private, government, and utility -owned facilities within
the SJBL, maximizing revenue of Commission -owned parcels, reducing liability
exposure, and assessing needs for a comprehensive property inventory database.
Under Phase 1 services, Epic:
• Copied and reviewed approximately 370 licenses, leases, and easements
within the PVL;
• Performed field inspections of the 22-mile length of the PVL, leading to
identifying locations covered by the 370 contracts, including GPS
coordinates, non -compliant uses, encroachments, safety related issues and
potential liabilities, and photographs of each facility;
• Marketed and sold properties amounting to $15.5 million in sales proceeds;
• Developed the RCTC Global Application (RGA) database that covers all
Commission -owned properties;
• Reviewed as -built drawings for numerous utility facilities;
• Created aerial photographs of the entire PVL, showing existing contracts and
encroachments;
• Coordinated the consolidation of 19 billboards owned by Lamar Advertising
into one contract and increased annual revenues from $45,000 to
$165,000;
• Initiated a rigorous valuation process that resulted in increasing an offer from
Metropolitan Water District for a pipeline right of way from $171,000 to
$1.1 million;
• Recommended and effected termination of 31 contracts located along the
abandoned right of way that were no longer in use;
• Provided utility information to the PVL design team to assist in identifying
conflicts;
• Began a resolution process to determine which contracts should be updated
(including revenue potential), which should be terminated, and disposition of
encroachments and contract violations; and
• Completed the conveyance to Caltrans of properties along State Route 74
that were needed in the widening of that highway between Lake Elsinore and
Perris;
Phase 2 of Epic's provision of property management support services included the
marketing and sale of various Commission -owned properties, conveyance of
parcels to Caltrans, incorporating GIS and County Assessor data into the RGA
database, and other special project assignments. The various special assignments
were detailed in subsequent amendments to the agreement that were brought
before the Commission for review and authorization, resulting in a total contract
value of $1,616,161 during the six -year period of performance.
Agenda Item 9G
•
89
Authorization of a proposed third and final phase of the property management
support services project is hereby requested under a separate sole source
agreement with Epic. Phase 3 services are required of Epic in order to close out
the various projects initiated by Epic under the prior phases and to initiate current
requirements including:
• Develop a methodology to be used in determining annual fees for licenses
covering utilities and other private uses of the Commission's property;
• Complete the resolution process for PVL contracts begun as described
above, including development of action plans to increase revenues, update
contracts, prepare new licenses for acceptable encroachments, remove
unacceptable encroachments, and resolve safety and liability issues;
• Dispose of excess lands from the SR-74 widening project described above,
as well as other possible properties, i.e., Box Springs, Arlington Station, and
the Old Ramona station grounds;
• Apply and complete the resolution process for the licenses, leases, and
easements along the remainder of the SJBL beyond the end of the PVL from
Romoland through Winchester, Hemet, and San Jacinto, as well as the
Orange Empire Railway Museum line in Perris; and
• Provide continuing maintenance and updating of the RGA database, including
the continuing reconciliation of assessor parcel numbers with the records of
the County Assessor as and when they are changed.
Due to its accumulated knowledge and development of various property
management projects, resources, and databases associated with the multitude of
Commission -owned properties, including but not limited to those along the SBJL,
Epic is the only firm that can efficiently complete the tasks described above.
Completion of the foregoing services by Epic, however, will provide the
Commission with the tools necessary to seek a competitive solution for future
property management support services.
Staff developed a scope of work and a cost estimate for the services covered by
the agreement. The cost estimate is based on the number of hours that may be
required to perform the services and the hourly rates of Epic's staff.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION AND DIRECTION:
During consideration of this item by the Western Riverside County Projects and
Programs Committee at its February 22 meeting, staff was directed to return to the
contractor and renegotiate for a reduction in overall cost of the contract. The
Committee's direction was based on the economic climate and challenges currently
faced in Riverside County. The Committee voiced its concern that since this
contract has been in place since 2003, the contract rate should be revisited and
reduced for the extension period.
Agenda Item 9G

The services outlined above will be provided by Epic for $970,000 for the term of
the contract and $485,000 for the option year. This represents a 30% (or
$45,000) reduction in its profit from the original staff recommendation presented
to the Committee on February 22, 2010.
The Committee further inquired about the responsibilities of the Relationship
Manager and the basis for its hourly rate. The Relationship Manager for Epic is
Ms. Holly Rockwell, who is the principal/president of the company. The original
summary should have listed her under that title. Relationship Manager is not a title
or job description typically used in Commission contracts and that item has been
corrected. Ms. Rockwell's responsibilities include the following:
• Liaising with federal and state agencies on questions related to Commission -
owned properties;
• Ensuring quality control of all Epic's work product prior to submission to
Commission staff;
• Handling some of the more complex Commission property transactions,
particularly those requiring history of Commission -owned properties;
• Making presentations at public meetings on behalf of the Commission;
• Representing Epic at bi-weekly project reviews with Commission staff; and
• Supporting Commission staff on an as -needed basis.
Ms. Rockwell's billable rate is $178.13, which is based on a rate audited last year
in conformity with Federal Acquisition Regulations. Principals for other right of
way firms of similar size and services, bill at $175 to $200 per hour.
Ms. Rockwell's overall proposed billable time represents around 7% of the overall
contract. Her expertise and history with the Commission give her a unique value
that cannot easily be replaced by another contractor.

PROPERTY MANAGEMENT SUPPORT SERVICES
SCOPE OF WORK
1. On -Call Services (PMA6)
On -call services covers any ad hoc requests related to existing RCTC properties.
Examples of work performed in the past six years on an ad hoc basis include:
• Analyzing title issues on previously acquired RCTC properties
• Providing real estate or right of way information for insurance, financial,
operational or legal -based issues
• Analyzing impacts resulting from zoning changes on RCTC properties
• Correcting assessor information about RCTC properties
• Resolving right of way issues with BNSF
• Providing relevant real estate or right of way information necessary to evaluate
proposals from developers, associations or other members of the public
• GIS mapping for presentations or exhibits
• Surveys to determine land boundaries or defining access easements (a budget of
$15,000 has been included for small projects; it is assumed that any large projects
will be contracted directly by RCTC)
2. SR-74 Excess Lands (PMAIO)
In the last three years, Epic has completed the conveyance to Caltrans of the SR-74
properties. At this stage, Caltrans is identifying the excess lands related to that project.
As of right now, there are anticipated to be 27 excess properties. Some adjacent property
owners have expressed interest in slivers that are unlikely to be sellable to any other
party. We anticipate the following next steps:
• Coordinating with Caltrans on finalizing documentation related to excess lands
• Preparing background information/presentations for RCTC on each of the excess
properties (including GIS maps)
• Determining which properties qualify for sales to adjacent owners in accordance
with Caltrans and State of California requirements
• Preparing and sending public agency notifications
• Drafting RFP's and preparing marketing information
• Conducting marketing meetings and responding to potential buyer questions
• Reviewing and summarizing bids and making recommendation to RCTC
• Overseeing escrow
3. New Licenses (PMA12)
Epic has supported RCTC staff on preparing new or renewed licenses and anticipates
continuing those activities, including:
• Researching property boundaries and other issues potentially impacting granting
of licenses

a timely manner, such correction may be made by the Commission, and the cost thereof
charged to Consultant.
3.11 Inspection of Work. Consultant shall allow the Commission's
Representative to inspect or review Consultant's work in progress at any reasonable time.
3.12 Final Acceptance. Upon determination by the Commission that
Consultant has satisfactorily completed the Services required under this Agreement and
within the term set forth in Section 3.3, the Commission shall give Consultant a written
Notice of Final Acceptance. Upon receipt of such notice, Consultant shall incur no further
costs hereunder, unless otherwise specified in the Notice of Final Acceptance. Consultant
may request issuance of a Notice of Final Acceptance when, in its opinion, it has
satisfactorily completed all Services required under the terms of this Agreement.
3.13 Laws and Regulations. Consultant shall keep itself fully informed of
and in compliance with all local, state and federal laws, rules and regulations in any
manner affecting the performance of the Project or the Services, including all Cal/OSHA
requirements, and shall give all notices required by law. Consultant shall be liable for all
violations of such laws and regulations in connection with Services. If the Consultant
performs any work knowing it to be contrary to such laws, rules and regulations and without
giving written notice to the Commission, Consultant shall be solely responsible for all costs
arising therefrom. Consultant shall defend, indemnify and hold Commission, its officials,

Consultant, terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time by giving written
notice to Consultant of such termination, and specifying the effective date thereof ("Notice
of Termination"). Such termination may be for Commission's convenience or because of
Consultant's failure to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement, including,
but not limited to, the failure of Consultant to timely perform Services pursuant to the
Schedule of Services described in Section 3.15 of this Agreement. Consultant may not
terminate this Agreement except for cause.
3.14.2 Discontinuance of Services. Upon receipt of the written Notice
of Termination, Consultant shall discontinue all affected Services as directed in the Notice
or as otherwise provided herein, and deliver to the Commission all Documents and Data,
as defined in this Agreement, as may have been prepared or accumulated by Consultant in
performance of the Services, whether completed or in progress.
3.14.3 Effect of Termination For Convenience. If the termination is to
be for the convenience of the Commission, the Commission shall compensate Consultant

3.17 Status of Consultant/Subconsultants.
3.17.1 Independent Contractor. The Services shall be performed by
Consultant or under its supervision. Consultant will determine the means, methods and
details of performing the Services subject to the requirements of this Agreement.
Commission retains Consultant on an independent contractor basis and not as an
employee, agent or representative of the Commission. Consultant retains the right to
perform similar or different services for others during the term of this Agreement. Any
additional personnel performing the Services under this Agreement on behalf of Consultant
shall at all times be under Consultant's exclusive direction and control. Consultant shall
pay all wages, salaries and other amounts due such personnel in connection with their
performance of Services and as required by law. Consultant shall be responsible for all
reports and obligations respecting such personnel, including but not limited to, social
security taxes, income tax withholdings, unemployment insurance, disability insurance, and
workers' compensation insurance.
3.17.2 Prevailing Wages. By its execution of this Agreement,
Consultant certifies that it is aware of the requirements of California Labor Code Sections
1720 et seq. and 1770 et seq., as well as California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Section
16000 et seq. ("Prevailing Wage Laws"), which require the payment of prevailing wage
rates and the performance of other requirements on certain "public works" and
"maintenance" projects. If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable
"public works" or "maintenance" project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and if
the total compensation is $1,000 or more, Consultant agrees to fully comply with such
Prevailing Wage Laws. Copies of the prevailing rate of per diem wages in effect at the
commencement of this Agreement are on file at the offices of the Commission. Consultant
shall make copies of the prevailing rates of per diem wages for each craft, classification or
type of worker needed to execute the Services available to interested parties upon request,
and shall post copies at the Consultant's principal place of business and at the project site.
Consultant shall defend, indemnify and hold the Commission, its elected officials, officers,
employees and agents free and harmless from any claims, liabilities, costs, penalties or
interest arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage
Laws. Certified Payrolls are to be submitted whenever required by Prevailing Wage laws.
3.17.3 Eight -Hour Law. Pursuant to the provisions of the California
Labor Code, eight hours of labor shall constitute a legal day's work, and the time of service
of any worker employed on the work shall be limited and restricted to eight hours during
any one calendar day, and forty hours in any one calendar week, except when payment for
overtime is made at not less than one and one-half the basic rate for all hours worked in
excess of eight hours per day ("Eight -Hour Law"), unless Consultant or the Services are
not subject to the Eight -Hour Law. Consultant shall forfeit to Commission as a penalty,
$50.00 for each worker employed in the execution of this Agreement by him, or by any sub -
consultant under him, for each calendar day during which such workman is required or
permitted to work more than eight hours in any calendar day and forty hours in any one
calendar week without such compensation for overtime violation of the provisions of the
RVPOD\HSHANE\768790.1 7
105
California Labor Code, unless Consultant or the Services are not subject to the Eight -Hour
Law.
3.17.4 Assignment or Transfer. Consultant shall not assign,
hypothecate, or transfer, either directly or by operation of law, this Agreement or any
interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Commission. Any attempt to do so
shall be null and void, and any assignees, hypothecates or transferees shall acquire no
right or interest by reason of such attempted assignment, hypothecation or transfer.
3.17.5 Subcontracting. Consultant shall not subcontract any portion of
the work or Services required by this Agreement, except as expressly stated herein,
without prior written approval of the Commission. Subcontracts, if any, shall contain a
provision making them subject to all provisions stipulated in this Agreement.
Consultant has, as part of its proposal, identified certain
companies/firms that will be subconsultants utilized by Consultant ("Subconsultants") for
Project delivery. A list of said Subconsultants is attached hereto as Exhibit "C" Part 2 and
made a part hereof. The Commission hereby approves the use by Consultant of the
Subconsultants identified in Exhibit "C" Part 2. In the event and prior to the replacement of
any Subconsultant approved herein, the Consultant shall seek and obtain the
Commission's written approval. Exhibit "C" Part 2 also sets forth the rates at which each
Subconsultant shall bill the Consultant for Services and that are subject to reimbursement
by the Commission to Consultant. Additional Direct Costs, as defined in Exhibit "C" Part 1
shall be the same for both the Consultant and all subconsultants, unless otherwise
identified in Exhibit "C" Part 2.
Consultant acknowledges that approval of Consultant's utilization of
the identified Subconsultants together with the incorporation of Subconsultants' rate
schedules and cost proposals into this Agreement shall in no way be construed to create
any contractual relationship between any Subconsultant and the Commission. The
Subconsultant rate schedules and cost proposals contained herein are for accounting
purposes only. In the event that any Subconsultant shall bring any action, claim or
proceeding purporting to enforce any right purportedly arising under this Agreement, the
Consultant shall be responsible for the Commission's reasonable legal fees without regard
to the merits of any such claim.
3.18 Ownership of Materials/Confidentiality.
3.18.1 Documents & Data. This Agreement creates an exclusive and
perpetual license for Commission to copy, use, modify, reuse, or sub -license any and all
copyrights and designs embodied in plans, specifications, studies, drawings, estimates,
materials, data and other documents or works of authorship fixed in any tangible medium
of expression, including but not limited to, physical drawings or data magnetically or
otherwise recorded on computer diskettes, which are prepared or caused to be prepared
by Consultant under this Agreement ("Documents & Data").

hereunder.
The parties expressly understand that the responsibility for compliance with

LATE BREAKING ITEM
RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
April 14, 2010
TO:
Riverside County Transportation Commission
FROM:
Anne Mayer, Executive Director
SUBJECT:
Colton Crossing Update
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Commission to:
1) Receive and file an update on the status of Colton Crossing; and
2) Provide policy direction to staff for remaining negotiations regarding inclusion
in the Trade Corridor Improvement Fund (TCIF).
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
On March 25, 2010, the California Transportation Commission (CTC) held a special
meeting to consider the Colton Crossing Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
between the California Department of Transportation (Department), Union Pacific
(UP), and Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF). CTC approval of the MOU was
necessary to meet requirements of state law (AB 268, Nunez) pertaining to
$97.3 million of Proposition 1 B Trade Corridor Improvement Funds (TCIF)
programmed for the Colton Crossing project. Securing the $97.3 million of TCIF
was necessary to complete the funding package for the project, following a
$33.8 million federal grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT).
Due to concerns over insufficient public benefit included in the MOU, the CTC
unanimously rejected the MOU by an 8-0 vote. AB 268 instructs the
Southern California Consensus Group (SCCG) to nominate a replacement project in
Southern California if the Colton Crossing did not have an approved MOU by
March 2010. Immediately following its rejection of the Colton Crossing MOU, the
CTC took action directing the railroads and the SCCG to work together and attempt
to produce an MOU for Colton Crossing that provided adequate public benefit
before the CTC's next meeting scheduled for April 8. lf, and only if, an agreement
on public benefits could be reached between Southern California and both railroads
by April 8, the region could renominate Colton Crossing for funding under the
Southern California corridor in the TCIF program.
Since that time, the SCCG and both railroads have diligently sought to resolve
outstanding public benefit and funding issues. Unfortunately, due to lingering
concerns regarding public benefit assurance, funding for Positive Train Control
(PTC) and impact on existing TCIF projects, the region was unable to come to
consensus and requested additional time to understand the impact of this decision.
The CTC deferred action until its May 19 meeting with the provision that a final
package must be submitted to CTC staff for review by May 7. This deadline would
provide sufficient review prior to the federal deadline for Transportation Investment
Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) applications established by DOT.
Key negotiated provisions of interest to this Commission:
1) BNSF agreed to allow the conversion of four non -revenue slots between
Riverside and San Bernardino assuming liability provisions are amended.
2) An additional two slots between Riverside and San Bernardino and
eight slots between Fullerton and Los Angeles will be allowed consistent
with the terms of the existing Shared Use Agreement between the
Commission and BNSF.
3) UP agreed to abandon an Interlocking Agreement related to the San Jacinto
Branch Line. This abandonment will allow Metrolink to control train
movements at that location.
4) UP agreed to begin evaluation of additional passenger service between
Colton and Indio. Its evaluation will consider impact of additional service on
rail capacity.
5) At the April 8 CTC meeting, UP offered to contribute an additional $6 million
to offset SCCG or Metrolink costs related to other projects, PTC or the BNSF
reimbursement required for the Shared Use Agreement.
6) Other negotiated terms relate to property acquisitions in other counties and
local mitigations in city of Colton.
Staff considers the negotiated provisions to date in conjunction with the air quality
and congestion reduction benefits of the project itself as sufficient demonstration
of public benefits for the $91.3 million in bond funding proposed for programming
on this project. We do have concerns regarding the impact of this programming on
our funding designated for Riverside County projects as well as certainty related to
PTC funding. The SCCG is meeting on Friday, April 16 to seek resolution of these
and other concerns raised by partner agencies. If consensus is reached over the
next few weeks, a revised MOU will return to the CTC on May 19, 2010 for its
consideration. It is not anticipated that the Commission will be a signatory.
