Commissioner Rick Gibbs expressed appreciation for the decline in debt service
for FY 2011/12 and for proactive management.
Anne Mayer noted the State Route 91 high occupancy vehicle lane project is
dependent on $157 million of bond funding. When the state conducts its bond
sale, the project will be delivered next fiscal year as anticipated.

9. RECURRING CONTRACTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2011/12
Greg Moore, Procurement and Assets Manager, presented the recurring
contracts for FY 2011/12.
In response to Commissioner Roberts' question for Best Best & Krieger LLP
(BB&K) general legal services increase of $565,000, Greg Moore replied there
are several projects progressing and require additional effort such as the SR-91
CorridorImprovement Project, Perris Valley Line, and Interstate 215 widening
projects.
Commissioner Roberts suggested working with BB&K to lower the legal
services amount to $500,000.
Anne Mayer stated the two large increases for the recurring contracts are with

fiscal year. This continued increase is an encouraging sign that economic recovery
in the region is broadening. Staff will continue to monitor the trends in the sales
tax receipts and report to the Commission any necessary adjustments to the
FY 2010/11 budget for sales tax revenues.
Federal, state, and local revenues are on a reimbursement basis. The Commission
will receive these revenues as eligible project costs are incurred and invoiced to the
respective agencies.
During the FY - 2010/11 budget process, the Commission took a conservative
approach in estimating the Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) revenues
of $4.3 million passed through from the Western Riverside Council of Governments
(WRCOG) as a result of the housing crisis and the significant impact this has had
on the Inland Empire's local economy. Of these TUMF revenues, 92% was earned
through March 2011. The balance of $5 million relates to TUMF zone
reimbursements from WRCOG, which had not been billed through March 2011.
Other revenues exceeded the estimate by 157% as a result of unbudgeted property
management revenues generated from properties acquired in connection with the
State Route 91 Corridor Improvement Project (SR-91 CIP).
The Commission took a conservative approach in estimating interest income for
FY 2010/11, due to flat interest yields on invested balances. Interest income is at
149% of the budget as a result of this conservative approach.
Other than capital project expenditures that are discussed separately, the other
expenditure categories are in line overall with the expectations of the budget with
the following exceptions:
• Professional services are under budget due to ongoing contract negotiations
with Burlington Northern Santa Fe regarding the 4`h Main track, downscaled
toll feasibility work on the Interstate 15 Corridor Improvement Project
(1-15 CIP) due to market conditions, and unused budget authority for level 2
and level 3 toll feasibility work on the SR-91 CIP.
• Support costs are slightly under budget due to unused budget authority for
station maintenance and repair and utilities. This category is expected to be
in line with the overall budget in the fourth quarter.
• Program operation expenditures are slightly under budget and reflect vendor
invoices for Freeway Service Patrol towing and program management
submitted through the period of February 2011.
• Special studies are under budget due to unused budget authority for Ca!trans
project initiation documents (PID) related to planning, programming, and

Highway Engineering/Construction/Design-Build/Right of Way/Land
SR-60/Valley Way Interchange Project - The county of Riverside (County) is the
lead agency for this project. The construction contract started in March 2010 and
is essentially complete with the contractor clearing punch list items. Remaining
invoices of approximately $1 million are expected to be received from the County
in the fourth quarter of FY 2010/11.
74/215 Interchange Project - Construction is progressing as planned; one right of
way acquisition is currently in condemnation proceedings.
SR-79 Realignment Project - The draft project report and environmental document
is being reviewed by Caltrans to receive approval to release for public circulation.
Due to the size and complexity of the project, this phase has taken longer than
anticipated.
SR-91 /Van Buren Boulevard Interchange Project - The city of Riverside is the lead
agency for this project. Construction started in March 2010 and the project is
progressing. Vendor invoices for the Measure A funded portion of construction for
$5 million will be submitted in the fourth quarter of FY 2010/11 for $3,million and
the remaining $2 million to be billed in the first quarter of FY 2011/12.
SR-91 HOV Lanes Project - Caltrans is performing design and is on schedule.
Expenditures remain within the budget authority, although billings from the state
are lagging. Utility relocation contractors continue to perform relocation of utilities;
however, no invoices for expenditures incurred to date have been submitted for
payment. Staff is performing right of way acquisition, and negotiations continue to
progress and are on schedule, while several acquisition payments are pending
settlements. Construction managed by Caltrans is currently forecasted to start in
the first quarter FY 201 1 /12; however, this may be delayed due to the lack of
state bond sales.
71 /91 Interchange Project - The preliminary engineering and environmental phase
is scheduled to be completed in late FY 2010/11. The availability of federal
earmark funds allows the design phase of work to move forward.
SR-91 CIP (design -build) - A third limited notice to proceed (NTP) was issued in the
first quarter FY 2010/11. A letter of intent for a Transportation Infrastructure
Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) loan was submitted in March 2011. The
Commission anticipates an invitation to apply for the TIFIA loan in the first quarter
FY 201 1 /12. Early right of way acquisition work was approved by Caltrans in
April 2011. Following a public comment period scheduled for June 2011, the
anticipated forecast date for early acquisition is scheduled for the first quarter
FY 201 1 /12.

RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
May 23, 2011
TO:
Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM:
Michele Cisneros, Accounting and Human Resources Manager
THROUGH:
Theresia Trevino, Chief Financial Officer
SUBJECT:
Appropriations Limit for Fiscal Year 2011 /12
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1► Approve Resolution No. 1 1-009, "Resolution of the Riverside County
Transportation Commission Establishing the Commission's Appropriations
Limit for Fiscal Year 2011/12 '; and
2) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Section 7910 of the California Government Code implements Article XIIIB of the
California Constitution by requiring each local jurisdiction to establish, by
resolution, its appropriations limit for each fiscal year and to make documentation
used to determine the appropriations limit available to the public 15 days prior to
adoption of the resolution establishing the appropriations limit.
Staff has performed the calculations necessary to determine the limit. The
resolution and documents supporting the calculation are attached. The
Commission chose to use the percentage change in the California per capital
personal income and the population change within Riverside County as the factors
in determining the appropriations limit. As required, the adoption of the
Commission's FY 201 1 /12 Appropriations Limit was posted in the local newspaper.

Enclosure 1
A. Price Factor: Article XIII B specifies that local jurisdictions select their cost -of -living
factor to compute their appropriation limit by a vote of their governing body. The
cost -of -living factor provided here is per capita personal income. If the percentage
change in per capita personal income is selected, the percentage change to be used
in setting the 2011-2012 appropriation limit is:
Per Capita Personal Income
Fiscal Year Percentage change
(FY) over prior year
2011-2012 2.51
B. Following is an example using sample population change and the change in
Califomia per capita personal income as growth factors in computing a 2011-2012
appropriation limit.
2011-2012:
Per Capita Cost of Living Change = 2.51 percent
Population Change = 0.77 percent
Per Capita Cost of Living converted to a ratio:
Population converted to a ratio:
Calculation of factor for FY 2011-2012:
2.51 + 100 = 1.0251
100
0.77 + 100 = 1.0077
100
1.0251 x 1.0077 = 1.0330

RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
May 23, 2011
TO:
Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM:
Theresia Trevino, Chief Financial Officer
THROUGH:
John Standiford, Deputy Executive Director
SUBJECT:
Quarterly Sales Tax Analysis
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Receive and file the sales tax analysis for Quarter 4 (Q4) 2010; and
2) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
At its December 2007 meeting, the Commission awarded an agreement to
MuniServices, LLC (MuniServices) for quarterly sales tax reporting services plus
additional fees contingent on additional sales tax revenue generated from the
transactions and use tax (sales tax) audit services. The services performed under
this agreement pertain to only the Measure A sales tax revenues.
Since the commencement of these services, MuniServices submitted an audit
update, which reported findings that have been generated and submitted to the
State Board of Equalization (SBOE) for review and determination of errors in sales
tax reporting related to 138 businesses. Through Q3 2010 for July through
September 2010, the SBOE has approved corrections for 98 of these accounts for
a total sales tax revenue recovery of $1,094,053. An update to the sales tax
revenue recovery through Q4 2010 will be made subsequent to the Committee
meeting and prior to the June Commission meeting. If the SBOE concurs with the
error(s) for the remaining claims, the Commission would receive additional
revenues; however, the magnitude of the value of the remaining findings was not
available. It is important to note that while the recoveries of additional revenues
will be tangible, it will not be sufficient to alter the overall trend of sales tax
revenues.
Additionally, MuniServices provided the Commission with the quarterly sales tax
summary report for the fourth quarter of calendar 2010 for October through
December 2010 (Q4 2010). Most of the Q4 2010 Measure A sales tax revenues
was received by the Commission in the first quarter of calendar 2011, during
Agenda Item 7C
15
January through March 2011, due to a lag in the sales tax calendar. The summary
section of the Q4 2010 report is attached and includes an overview of California
sales tax receipts, local results, historical cash collections analysis, summary of the
top 25 sales tax contributors, historical sales tax amounts, sales tax by business
category, economic trends for a significant business category, and results. The
following observations were noted in the Q4 2010 report:
• Sales tax receipts for Riverside County were 7.4% higher compared to the
Q3 2009, and slightly higher than the state. This supports the previous
quarterly reports' analyses that an economic recovery statewide and locally
is underway.
• Taxable transactions for the top 25 tax contributors in Riverside County,
which generated 24% of the taxable sales for the year ended Q4 2010,
increased 4.4% compared to the year ended Q4 2009. For the top 100 tax
contributors, which generated 38% of the taxable sales, the growth was
6.7 %.
• Over the last two-year period, the Q4 2010 sales tax levels were at the low
points for three of the top 10 economic segments; these three segments
(food markets, building materials -retail, and light industry) were also the
three low points in Q3 2010. Apparel store sales reached a new high point
during Q4 2010.
• Department stores, service stations, and restaurants continue to represent
the three largest economic segments for Riverside County.

• Similar to the Q3 comparisons in the prior quarter's report, the general retail
and transportation economic categories were the only categories with
increases in the Q4 2010 benchmark year comparison to Q4 2009.
Construction and business to business, which comprised 25% of the Q4
2010 sales tax receipts, had smaller declines of 2.6% and 1.2%,
respectively, compared with the prior Q3 2010 report declines of 8.8% and
7.3%, respectively. Of the two remaining categories, the food products
decline was comparable to the prior quarter and miscellaneous (2.1 % of the
total receipts) declined 1.9% compared to 1.1 % in the prior quarter.

FUND BALANCE POLICY
I. Introduction
EXHIBIT A
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) issued its Statement No. 54,
Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions. The requirements of
this statement are intended to improve financial reporting by providing fund balance
categories and classifications that will be more easily understood by financial report
users. The categories are more clearly defined to make the nature and extent of the
constraints placed on a government's fund balance more transparent. Additionally, the
reporting of restricted fund balance will enhance the consistency between information
reported in the government -wide statements and information in the governmental fund
financial statements.
This Fund Balance Policy establishes the procedures for reporting unrestricted fund
balances in the governmental fund financial statements. Certain commitments and
assignments of fund balance will help ensure that there will be adequate financial
resources to protect the Commission against unforeseen circumstances and events such
as revenue shortfalls and unanticipated expenditures. The policy also authorizes and
directs the Chief Financial Officer to prepare financial reports which accurately
categorize fund balance as per GASB Statement No. 54.
II. Scope
Fund balance is essentially the difference between the assets and liabilities reported in a
governmental fund. The Commission's governmental funds consist of the General fund,
special revenue funds, capital projects funds, and a debt service fund. There are five
separate components of fund balance, each of which identifies the extent to which the
Commission is bound to honor constraints on the specific purposes for which amounts
can be spent.
• Nonspendable — Fund balance includes amounts that are not in spendable form
or are required to be maintained intact (e.g., loans receivable and endowments).
These amounts are inherently nonspendable.
• Restricted — Fund balance includes amounts that can be spent only for the
specific purposes stipulated by external resource providers, constitutionally or
25
through enabling legislations. These amounts have externally enforceable
limitations on use.
• Committed — Fund balance includes amounts that can be used only for specific
purposes determined by formal action of the government's highest level of
decision -making authority. These amounts have self-imposed limitations on use.
• Assigned — Fund balance comprises amounts intended to be used by the
government for specific purposes. In governmental funds other than the general
fund, assigned fund balance represents the amount that is not restricted or
committed. These amounts have limitations resulting from intended use.
• Unassigned — Fund balance is the residual classification for the general fund and
includes all amounts not contained in the other classifications.
Nonspendable and restricted fund balance are not addressed in this policy due to the
nature of their restrictions. For the Commission, an example of nonspendable fund
balance is prepaid amounts. Restricted fund balance amounts in the General fund,
special revenue funds, capital projects funds, and debt service fund are related to the
limitations imposed by Measure A, the Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF),
the Transportation Development Act for Local Transportation Funds (LTF) and State
Transit Assistance, federal and state grants and programs, and debt agreements. This
policy is focused on financial reporting of unrestricted fund balance, or the last three
components listed above. These three components are further discussed below.
III. Procedures
Committed Fund Balance
The Board of Commissioners, as the Commission's highest level of decision -making
authority, may commit fund balance for specific purposes pursuant to constraints
imposed by formal actions taken, such as an ordinance or resolution. These committed
amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the Commission removes or
changes the specified use through the same type of formal action taken to establish the
commitment. Commission action to commit fund balance needs to occur within the
fiscal reporting period; however, the amount can be determined subsequently.
Assigned Fund Balance
Amounts that are constrained by the Commission's intent to be used for specific
purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed, should be reported as assigned
fund balance. This policy hereby delegates the authority to assign amounts to be used
for specific purposes to the Chief Financial Officer for the purpose of reporting these
amounts in the annual financial statements. An example of assigned fund balance
follows:

The costs for new or expanded services are exempted from the calculation for the
year of implementation plus two fiscal years of operation. For FY 201 1 /12, RTA has
six routes and SunLine has two routes that are also exempt from the farebox recovery
calculation.
Using the above formula and the Short Range Transit Plans, the FY 2011 /12 minimum
required ratio for RTA is 17.04% and SunLine is17.80%. This means that passenger
fares for RTA and SunLine should cover at least 17.04% and 17.80%, respectively,
of the actual cost to operate services. The balance of the operating cost is covered
by federal, state, and local funding. The farebox recovery ratios for FY 2011 /12 have
been reviewed and approved by RTA and SunLine staff.
The ratios are then fixed for the fiscal year upon adoption of the required ratio by the
Commission and cannot be changed, even though actual revenues and expenses may
differ from the Short Range Transit Plan estimates.

RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR DETERMINING REQUIRED
FARE REVENUE TO OPERATING COST RATIOS FOR TRANSIT OPERATORS
SERVING BOTH URBANIZED AND NON -URBANIZED AREAS OF
RIVERSIDE COUNTY
I. Based on the latest annually adopted Short Range Transit Plans for Riverside
County, the Riverside County Transportation Commission with the cooperation
of the transit operator will determine separately the operating cost of those
transit services provided in non -urbanized areas and the operating cost of those
services in urbanized areas.
• For the purpose of this calculation, the operating cost in the urbanized areas
shall include the cost of fixed route lines, groups of fixed route lines, and
demand responsive service operating entirely within an urbanized area. The
operating cost in the non -urbanized area shall include the cost of all fixed
route lines, groups of fixed route lines, and demand responsive service
operating entirely within a non -urbanized area.
• For fixed route lines operating partly within an urbanized area and partly
within a non -urbanized area, the cost shall be apportioned to the urbanized
area costs and non -urbanized area costs in proportion to the route miles in
the non -urbanized area and the route miles in the urbanized area.
• For demand response systems serving both an urbanized area and a non -
urbanized area, the cost shall be apportioned to urbanized area costs and
non -urbanized area costs in proportion to the population of the urbanized
area served and the population of the non -urbanized area served.
• The costs of extension of public transit service pursuant to Section 99268.8
of the Public Utilities Code (PUC) shall not be included in any of these
calculations.
II. The required ratio of fare revenues to operating cost in compliance with PUC
Sections 99268.3 and 99268.4 shall be calculated as follows:
R = .1 Cn + .2 Cu
Cn + Cu
R = Required Ratio
Cn = Operating Cost in Non -Urbanized Areas
Cu = Operating Cost in Urbanized Areas
III. Annually, prior to the beginning of the fiscal year, the Riverside County
Transportation Commission shall calculate the required revenue to operating
cost ratio for each transit operator serving both urbanized and non -urbanized
30
areas and submit this calculation to Caltrans. Caltrans shall approve the
methodology used to calculate the blended fare box ratio prior to the beginning
of the fiscal year. Once approved, the ratio is not subject to change.

FROM:
Fina Clemente, Transit Manager
THROUGH:
Robert Yates, Multimodal Service Director
SUBJECT:
Federal Fiscal Years 2009/10 — 2010/11 Federal
Administration's Section 5310 Capital Grant Applications
Transit
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Adopt the FFYs 2009/10 — 2010/11 Federal Transit Administration's (FTA)
Section 5310 Riverside County project rankings as recommended by the
local review committee (LRC);
2) Adopt Resolution No. 1 1-008, 'Resolution of the Riverside County
Transportation Commission Certifying Project Consistency with Regional
Transportation Plan', certifying that the projects are derived from a locally
developed, coordinated public transit -human services transportation plan;
3) Include the projects in the Regional Transportation Improvement Plan (RTIP);
and
4) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
In January 2011, Caltrans issued a call for projects to social service and public
agencies for the FTA Section 5310 Elderly and Disabled Specialized Transit
program covering two years of funding for FFYs 2009/10 — 2010/11. This capital -
only program dedicated to specialized transit (serving elderly and persons with
disabilities, where public transit is otherwise unavailable, insufficient, or
inappropriate) is used mostly for accessible vans and buses, computer hardware
and software, and communication equipment.
Caltrans is the lead agency on this statewide discretionary program. The
Commission's role is to perform an advisory review of projects within the region,
submit a regional priority list to Caltrans, and amend funded projects in the RTIP
when approved. Program funds are apportioned among the states by a formula
that is based on the number of elderly and persons with disabilities in each state
according to the latest available U.S. census data. Projects funded by the Section
5310 program require coordination with other federally -assisted programs in order
to make the most efficient use of federal resources. Program funds may be used to
Agenda Item 9
35
provide up to 88.53% federal share of the capital cost and requires at least
11.47% in local match. For this funding cycle only, agencies will receive up to
100% in federal funds with the usage of toll credits.
Approximately $25 million in federal funds is available for programming for the
FFYs 2009/10 - 2010/11 grant cycle, twice as much as the amount of $12.6
million made available during the last funding cycle in 2009. During the FFY 2009
grant cycle, Riverside County requested approximately $1.1 million of Section
5310 funds. All project proposals submitted by the eight agencies were funded.
The LRCs in each county quantitatively evaluate all applications submitted for that
area, rank them using state -mandated criteria, and submit a regional priority list to
Caltrans. The Commission's evaluation committee for this year, after putting out a
public request for volunteers, was comprised of one member of the Citizens
Advisory Committee/Social Services Transportation Advisory Council
(CAC/SSTAC), one non-public agency representative, one AMMA consultant staff,
and one Commission staff. The scoring criteria used to evaluate Section 5310
project proposals is as follows:
CALTRANS' EVALUATION CRITERIA

Coordination Planning (12 pts.) and Coordinated Use of Vehicles (6 pts.)

Total Points Available to Evaluate FTA Sec 5310 Project Applications
100
A total of five agencies located in Riverside County submitted grant applications
requesting $1,144,350 in total cost for 20 projects that include nine replacement
vehicles, nine expansion vehicles, and two requests for computer equipment.
Following a preliminary scoring earlier this year, staff worked with each applicant
agency to improve its scores for the statewide competitive process. The
attachment summarizes the LRC's proposed Regional Priority list for FFYs 2009/10
- 2010/11 showing the regional scores, which was forwarded to Caltrans prior to
the May 6, 2011 project submission deadline. This List will become final pending
Commission approval of the staff recommendation along with the Commission's
Resolution No. 1 1-008. All applicants have been notified of the LRC project scores
and were given the opportunity to appeal. No appeals have been received.
Caltrans is due to release the statewide results in July 2011 and it is anticipated
that the California Transportation Commission (CTC) will adopt the final list of
funded projects in August 2011. Upon final grant awards by the CTC, the
Commission will include the FTA funded projects in the FY 201 1 /12 RTIP. The

RIVERS/DE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
May 23, 2011
TO:
Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM:
Jillian Edmiston, Staff Analyst
Brian Cunanan, Commuter Assistance Manager
THROUGH:
Robert Yates, Multimodal Services Director
SUBJECT:
Fiscal Year 2011 /12 SB 821 Bicycle and
Program Funding Recommendations
Pedestrian Facilities
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Approve the FY 201 1 /12 SB 821 Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities Program
recommended funding of $1,094,143;
2) Authorize staff to fund unfunded projects in rank order through the 70th
percentile using project savings and returned allocations; and
3) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
In March 2011, staff notified the cities and the county that an estimated
$1,077,235 would be available for programming in FY 201 1 /12 through the
SB 821 Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities program, which is included in the
FY 201 1 /12 Commission budget. The SB 821 Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities
program is funded by an allocation of 2% of the total Local Transportation Fund
(LTF) apportioned to Riverside County by the state.
DISCUSSION:
The SB 821 proposals were due on April 21. The Commission received 30
project proposals, totaling $3,061,982 in SB 821 funding requests as attached.
A diverse evaluation committee comprised of three members from the
Commission's Citizens Advisory Committee, two members from the Technical
Advisory Committee, and one staff member from San Bernardino Associated
Governments reviewed the proposals on May 10. All of the applicants were invited
to give a presentation on the proposals and to answer questions from the
Agenda Item 10
41
committee members. Based upon the Commission's adopted scoring criteria,
which is attached, the proposals were evaluated and ranked by members of the
evaluation committee.
Eight projects totaling $1,094,143 are recommended for funding as indicated in the
attachment. The difference between the new funding available and the amount
recommended for funding this year exists for two reasons: 1) It is undesirable to
partially fund projects due to the burden it places on the receiving agency; and 2)
Using cost savings from claims that have been received in the past three months,
the Commission is able to fully fund the eighth project on the list. Moving forward,
additional project cost savings and returned allocations will be used to fund
projects on the attached FY 201 1 /12 Recommended funding list in order from
highest ranking through the 70'h percentile of projects. Staff concurs with the
evaluation committee's recommendation.

including the Perris Valley Line and the Mid County Parkway. Lastly, consultant
assistance is required for community outreach services. Staff sought a competitive
solution to meet this requirement.
Procurement Process
Staff determined the weighted factor method of source selection to be the most
appropriate for this procurement, as it allows the Commission to identify the most
advantageous proposals with price and technical factors considered. Non -price,
technical factors include elements such as experience, qualifications, personnel, a
proposer's ability to respond to the requirements set forth under the terms of the
RFP No. 11-15-067-00, and innovative and/or cost effective approaches to the
required services that were not identified in the RFP.
RFP No. 11-15-067-00 was released by staff and advertised on
March 17. A pre -proposal conference was conducted on March 24, and staff
responded to all requests for clarifications submitted by potential proposers. Nine
firms — RW Creative Group, Simon Wong Engineering, Michele Raus, Seibert
Perkins Design, Cook+Schmid, Consensus, Inc., Geographics, MBI Media, and
Westbound Communications — submitted a proposal prior to the stateddeadline
date. Each of the nine firms submitted a responsive and responsible proposal. The
firm's proposals were evaluated and scored by an evaluation committee comprised
of Commission staff and a representative from the Western Riverside Council of
Governments. Scoring was based entirely upon the evaluation criteria set forth in
the RFP.
The evaluation committee scored each firm in order to establish a short list of the
firms earning the highest total evaluation scores. The evaluation committee
conducted interviews with four short listed firms and a subsequent scoring
evaluation of each of those firms, based on both the written and interview
components presented to the evaluation committee by each proposer, resulted in a
final evaluation score for each firm. The firms, in descending order, ranked as
follows:
1. Geographics
2. Westbound Communications
3. Consensus, Inc.
4. Simon Wong Engineering
Geographics earned the highest total evaluation score. Therefore, the evaluation
committee recommends an award of Agreement No. 11-15-067-00 to Geographics
for a two-year term, and two one-year options to extend the agreement, for
communications and graphic design services on an as -needed, time and expense

TO:
Budget and Implementation Committee
FROM:
Aaron Hake, Government Relations Manager
THROUGH:
John Standiford, Deputy Executive Director
SUBJECT:
State and Federal Legislative Update
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Receive an update on state and federal legislation;
2) Adopt the following state bill positions:
• AB 1229 (Feuer) - Support;
• SB 545 (Anderson) - Monitor;
• SB 862 (Lowenthal) - Monitor;
• SB 867 (Padilla) - Monitor;
3) Adopt the following federal bill positions:
• S. 826 (Feinstein) - Support; and
4) Forward to the Commission for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
State Update
AB 1229 (Feuer) - Federal Highway Grant Anticipation Notes
Recommended Position: Support
AB 1229 would allow regional transportation agencies such as the Commission to
utilize Grant Anticipation Revenue Vehicle (GARVEE) bonds to accelerate federal
formula funds that are authorized by Congress.
GARVEE is a borrowing mechanism that exists in state law today for projects that
have achieved environmental clearance and design. The California Transportation
Commission (CTC) can approve GARVEE financing to state -funded projects so
these projects can be accelerated, in anticipation of federal funds due to the state
in future years. This bill would expand the availability of GARVEE for up to 50% of
federal funds under two formula programs that are due to regional transportation
agencies. Under the provisions of this bill, the Commission could request GARVEE
bonds from the CTC for half of its anticipated funding from the Surface
Agenda Item 12
49
Transportation Program (STP) and Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ)
programs - both of which are determined by a formula based on a variety of
factors such as population, road miles and air quality attainment. This would
provide additional flexibility to the Commission to advance projects, but also
maximize funding streams to deliver the Commission's ambitious program in a time
of tight revenues. The bill would also increase the amount of GARVEE bonds that
could be issued by the State Treasurer from 15% of total federal funds received by
the state, up to 25%.
SB 545 (Anderson) Transportation
Recommended Position: Monitor
At the time of this report, SB 545 bill by a member of the Riverside County
delegation stated the intent of the Legislature to, "enact legislation enabling the
state to examine efficiency in administering solutions to California's transportation
needs." Given the Commission's adopted platform, which expresses interest in
increasing efficiencies to the process of delivering transportation projects, the
ultimate disposition of this bill may be of interest to the Commission. A press
conference held earlier in the year by Senator Joel Anderson indicated his interest
in reforming Caltrans.
SB 862 (Lowenthal): Southern California Goods Movement Authority
Recommended Position: Monitor
SB 862 establishes a multi -county governing board for goods movement projects in
the Southern California region. Borrowing language from Senator Alan Lowenthal's
previous legislation to levy container fees at the Ports of Los Angeles. and Long
Beach, this bill provides the Commission and Mayor of Riverside with one
appointee each to this authority. The Mayors of Anaheim, Los Angeles, and San
Bernardino would also have appointees, as well as Orange County Transportation
Authority, San Bernardino Associated Governments, Metro, the Ports of Los
Angeles, Long Beach, and the Alameda Corridor East Construction Authority. No
funding is provided to the authority by this bill, nor is the specter of a container fee
mentioned. However, the establishment of this body may become the precursor to
future legislation to provide funding to goods movement projects. The
Commission's primary concern with this bill is ensuring appropriate representation
of Riverside County on any decision -making body for transportation funding,
particularly goods movement, which has a dramatic impact on congestion and air
quality in the Inland region.
The Commission supported in concept Senator Lowenthal's last goods movement
bill, SB 974, which was vetoed by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. The
governing structure proposed in SB 974 is identical to that proposed in SB 862. In
SB 974, a container fee was levied for specific projects, including high -priority

points out the significant opportunities for revenue generation by way of increased
employment created by transportation projects, which could potentially offset
General Fund impacts.
An additional concern is the state's current inability to sell Proposition 1 B bonds,
which were approved by California voters in 2006. Creating additional bonding
authority on top of an already -struggling bond program may create additional
pressures and complications.
The Senate Transportation and Housing Committee has pledged to hold a hearing in
Los Angeles on the idea of BCBs. Staff recommends an interim position of monitor
on this bill as the Legislature and the transportation industry studies this policy
idea.
Federal Update
S. 826 (Feinstein) — The Infrastructure Facilitation and Habitat Conservation
Act of 2011
Recommended Position: Support
S. 826 would create a federal loan and loan guarantee program for public agencies
to purchase real property for habitat conservation plans, such as Western Riverside
County's Multi -Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP). The proposed
program would operate in the United States Treasury, with input from the U.S.
Departments of Interior and Commerce. The Secretary of the Treasury is tasked
with soliciting loan applications for habitat plans once every calendar year. The
Interior Secretary then evaluates the loan applications based on:
1) Each habitat's plans eligibility status under Section 10 of the Endangered
Species Act;
2) The likelihood that the plan's habitat acquisition program will be completed;
and
3) Whether the plan contemplates the mitigation of infrastructure projects.
The Treasury Secretary then evaluates:
1) Financial soundness and sustainability of the habitat plan;
2) Ability to be repaid by the public entity requesting the loan;
3) Any other factor deemed appropriate by the Treasury Secretary; and
4) Recommendations from the Interior Secretary.
S. 826 prescribes 120-day limit for review of an application, within which an
approval or disapproval must be rendered by the Treasury Secretary.
