6. RESOLUTION OF NECESSITY FOR THE ACQUISITION OF FEE, EASEMENT,
AND TEMPORARY CONSTRUCTION EASEMENT INTERESTS IN CERTAIN REAL
PROPERTY, LOCATED IN RIVERSIDE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, BY EMINENT
DOMAIN, FOR THE CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE OF
IMPROVEMENTS RELATED TO THE STATE ROUTE 91 HIGH OCCUPANCY
VEHICLE LANES FROM ADAMS STREET TO THE 60/91/215 INTERCHANGE,
IN RIVERSIDE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
At this time, Chair Buster opened the public hearing and requested legal
counsel to explain the nature and scope of the hearing.
Steve DeBaun, legal counsel, explained the purpose of this hearing is for the
Board to consider the adoption of Resolution of Necessity No. 10-027 for the
acquisition of fee and temporary construction easement interests necessary for
the SR-91 high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane project. He stated at the
conclusion of this hearing, the Board will be asked to adopt the resolution of
necessity and he provided the four findings.
Tara Byerly, Deputy Clerk of the Board, verified the proofs of mailing that
certify notices were sent to the property owner of said parcel numbers.
Min Saysay, Right of Way Manager, explained the Commission is requested to
determine and find the full requirements for the adoption of resolution of
necessity declaring its intent to acquire interest in real property through
eminent domain for the construction and maintenance of the SR-91 HOV lanes
project in the city of Riverside. He explained the project calls for the
construction of two HOV lanes on SR-91 between Adams Street and the
60/91 /215 interchange to improve ramps, bridges, and access, and modify
interchanges that will reduce traffic congestion and enhance safety. He
presented the following items:.,
• A review of the four required findings;
• SR-91 HOV lane project map and the location of property; and
• An aerial view depicting the project area and the property being acquired
highlighting the location of the freeway widening, the detention basin,
the existing 42" water line, and the new 54" water line.

Commissioner Roger Berg recommended working closely with the San Gorgonio
Pass (Pass) area cities, which includes the cities of Banning, Beaumont, and
Calimesa concerning passenger rail to the Coachella Valley. He discussed the
plans for a rail spur that is located in the city of Beaumont.
Sheldon Peterson replied a Pass area stop was included in the current feasibility
study and will continue to be included moving forward.
In response to Commissioner Scott Hines' question about the acquired property
for a prospective location in the city of Rancho Mirage, Sheldon Peterson
replied the Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG) purchased
17 acres of land near the Agua Caliente Casino for a proposed rail stop.
Commissioner Henderson concurred with staff's recommendation and
suggested the Commissioners support the recommendation in support of the
efforts by Coachella Valley.
Commissioner Bob Botts concurred with Commissioner Berg's comments and
recommended including the Pass area as part of the staff recommendation.
M/S/C (Henderson/Ashley) to:
1) Reaffirm the Commission's formal support for implementation and
expansion of intercity Amtrak rail service to the Coachella Valley
and San Gorgonio Pass area; and
2) Direct staff to work closely and coordinate with the Coachella
Valley Association of Governments (CVAG) local communities to
advocate for intercity Amtrak rail service to the Coachella Valley.

tax by business category, economic trends for a significant business category, and
results. The following observations were noted in the Q2 2010 report:
• Sales tax receipts for Riverside County were 7.2% higher compared to the
Q2 2009 and comparable to the state's experience. This seems to support
the prior quarterly report analysis that the economic decline was slowing and
that there are signs of an economic recovery statewide and locally.
• Taxable transactions for the top 25 tax contributors in Riverside County,
which generated 24% of the taxable sales in Q2 2010, increased .9%
compared to Q2 2009. For the top 100 tax contributors, which generated
38% of the taxable sales, the growth was 2.5%.
• Over the last two-year period, the Q2 2010 sales tax levels continued to be
at or near the low points for 7 of the top 10 economic segments; the levels
for service stations and new auto sales improved by moving above the low
points. Apparel sales reached a new high point during Q2 2010.
• Over the last two-year period, the Q2 2010 sales tax levels for wholesale
and retail building materials showed a significant variance from the high
point, indicating that these segments continue to have been significantly
affected by the recession.
• Department stores, service stations, and restaurants continue to represent
the three largest economic segments for Riverside County, although the
there was a change in the second and third position.
• The order of the top 10 economic segments has been consistent in the last
two quarters' benchmark year comparisons. There had been some shifting
of positions primarily in the bottom half of the tier during the 2009 quarterly
comparisons.
• When comparing the Q2 2010 benchmark year level to Q2 2008, the
decrease over the two-year period is 20.7%, which is an improvement over
the Q1 2010 to Q1 2009 decrease of 23.5%.
• The transportation economic category was the only category with an
increase (1.2%) in the Q2 2010 benchmark year comparison to Q1 2009.
Construction and business to business, which comprised almost 26% of the
sales tax receipts, continue to struggle with declines of 16.3% and 11.5%,
respectively.
During the review of the Q2 2010 detailed report with MuniServices, information
regarding sales tax comparisons by city and change by economic category from
Q2 2009 to Q2 2010 was provided, and is included as Attachment 2. The cities
of Menifee and Wildomar are not presented due to lack of data.
Staff continues to monitor monthly sales tax receipts and other available economic
data to determine the need for any additional adjustment to the revenue projections
in FY 2010/11. Staff will utilize the forecast scenarios included with the complete
report and recent trends in assessing such projections.

Sales Tax Digest Summary
Collections through September 2010
Sales through June 2010 (2Q2010)
ATTACHMENT 1
CALIFORNIA OVERVIEW
For the second quarter in a row, California experienced sales tax growth. This quarter also marked the
first quarter in years with all regions in California showing positive growth. Statewide sales tax receipts
during July -September 2010 grew by 7.1% from the same three months in 2009. Northern California
grew by 8.5% and Southern California grew by 6.4%. As for Riverside County Transportation
Commission, its sales tax receipts changed by 7.2%from July -September 2009 to July -September 2010.
CALIFORNIA'S FUTURE
Expect General Retail sales to be flat in FY 2011 with growth between 3.5% and 4.5% through FY 2015.
Sales tax from Services Stations will continue to be volatile. Construction will continue its drop during FY
2011 by close to 15% before growing by 2.5% per year through FY 2014. Food Products, which includes
Restaurants, will grow with core CPI of 2.4% per year with price pressures upward of 3.5% in FY 2015.
Auto sales will remain flat during FY 2011 until pent up demand will cause buyers, who will be seeking
lower -priced vehicles, to increase purchases during FY 2012 and 2013 by 3%. County Pool receipts will
follow the auto sales trends as third -party vehicle sales resume along with overall car sales volume.
In order to establish an economic rebound, California needs job growth both locally and regionally to
increase spending business travel. Housing prices must stabilize and register 5% growth to restore some
levels of the wealth effect and to strengthen consumer confidence. A broader taxable base and a lower
rate would provide better growth as well as a more stable source of sales tax revenues over time.
