5. APPROVAL OF MINUTES — APRIL 13, 2016
M/S/C (Radi/Harnik) to approve the April 13, 2016 minutes as submitted.
6. PUBLIC HEARING — PROPOSED BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2016/17
Michele Cisneros, Deputy Director of Finance, presented the proposed FY 2016/17
Budget and discussed the following areas:
• Budget process;
• FY 2016/17 Budget considerations and summary;
• Sources and expenditure by breakdown and comparison;
• Capital department expenditure highlights;
• Functional expenditures breakdown and comparison; and
• Next steps.
At this time, Commissioner Rusty Bailey joined the meeting.
At this time, Chair Matas opened the public hearing and asked for public comments.
There were no requests to speak.
At Commissioner Karen Spiegel's request for clarification, Michele Cisneros explained
the differences between Table 2 — Uses FYs 2015-2017 in the Executive Summary and
the functional expenditures breakdown that was presented.
Commissioner Spiegel then requested a copy of the Budget presentation and asked if
active transportation is reflected separately in the budget.
Anne Mayer replied active transportation is incorporated into the Commission's
planning and programming exercises and the Commission's funding allocations depend
on whether or not active transportation is an eligible expense. She explained
Measure A does not have a separate component for active transportation. The
Commission's funding sources are generally from the state and federal governments for
active transportation. She then used the Santa Ana River Trail as an example where the
Commission has an agreement with Riverside County Parks to implement the Santa Ana
River Trail project. She explained the Commission is not funding it, however, that
workload is incorporated into the Commission's capital program budget and is not called
out separately.
Commissioner Jeffries expressed appreciation to staff for its detailed budget and
requested clarification on the budget amounts for motorist assistance and projects and
operations.
Riverside County Transportation Commission Minutes
April 13, 2016
Page 3
Michele Cisneros replied the significant increase includes call box upgrades as well as
Construction Freeway Service Patrol (FSP) for the State Route 91 Corridor Improvement
Project and Interstate 15 Express Lanes project.
In response to Commissioner Jeffries' request for clarification regarding the funding for
FSP, Anne Mayer replied the Commission pays for the tow services being provided. For
construction projects, the Commission pays for construction FSP and California Highway
Patrol (CHP) overtime. She explained the Commission is advocating at the state level for
the legislature to increase FSP funding for Caltrans and CHP staffing, as there has been a
flat budget for over 10 years.
Commissioner Jeffries stated the Commission is doing the state's mission and
responsibility of improving infrastructure and the Commission is being charged by the
state.
Anne Mayer concurred and stated staff is hopeful the bill will be successful. Partners in
the Bay area and Los Angeles also see the value in this program and are advocating for
increased funding.
At Commissioner Dawn Haggerty's request, Michele Cisneros explained the budget for
toll and non -toll revenue related to toll operations.
Anne Mayer explained with the startup of a toll facility, the Commission needs to bring
customers in and get the whole system moving forward so it is not uncommon in the
first few years to have an operating deficit where it is costing more to maintain, though
revenue is coming in.
In response to Commissioner Haggerty's questions regarding how to contact FSP,
Anne Mayer explained a motorist should get the vehicle to a safe location, if possible,
and keep the seatbelt on. The FSP tow trucks are constantly roving the corridor and will
stop immediately for a disabled vehicle. One of the challenges is when there is a
congested corridor, it is difficult for the FSP tow trucks to get there in a timely manner.
Ms. Mayer stated the commuter and motorist assistance staff has shortened the beats
so there is a shorter distance for the FSP tow trucks to rove in order to respond more
quickly. If a motorist calls 911, CHP dispatch is responsible for dispatching an FSP tow
truck.
Chair Matas suggested implementing FSP service in the Coachella Valley and
San Gorgonio Pass Area during major holidays and concerts.
M/5/C to continue the public hearing for the proposed Budget for FY 2016/17
to the Commission meeting on June 8, 2016.

9. 2016 STATE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM UPDATE
Shirley Medina, Planning and Programming Director, provided an update for the 2016
State Transportation Improvement Program.
At Commissioner Spiegel's request, Shirley Medina noted the agencies that reduced
their STIP project funding less than their fair share target and possible reasons why this
occurred.
Anne Mayer stated staff was monitoring this issue to ensure it was an equitable process.
Some agencies did not have a project to remove. In the case of the Los Angeles County
Metropolitan Transportation Authority, every project except one was deleted from its
STIP program since that one was a capital purchase. Ms. Mayer stated from the
documentation reviewed and direct conversations with the California Transportation
Commission (CTC), the CTC did its best with a difficult situation and was fair and utilized
consistent criteria across the state. She expressed appreciation to the CTC for its efforts
and noted CTC Commissioner Joe Tavaglione has been closely monitoring this as well.
M/S/C to receive and file an update on the 2016 State Transportation
Improvement Program (STIP).

10. STATE LEGISLATIVE UPDATE
Aaron Hake, Government Relations Manager, presented an update on the state
legislative activities.
In response to Commissioner Dana Reed's request for clarification if SB 885 (Wolk) is
sponsored by the American Council of Engineering Companies, Aaron Hake concurred.
Commissioner Reed expressed the need for a measured response to the legislature
since this bill is outrageous and there should be some repercussion.
Anne Mayer expressed staff strongly recommends an opposed position on this bill. The
Commission always wants to be a business -friendly owner and encourage competition
amongst the professionals seeking to do work with the Commission in that the
requirements set in place are actually implementable, pragmatic, and reasonable. She
stated even though staff is recommending an opposed position, the Commission
welcomes design professionals, small and large firms alike.
M/S/C (Gibbs/B. Benoit) to:
1) Receive and file an update on state legislation; and
2) Adopt the following bill position:
11. ITEM(S) PULLED FROM CONSENT CALENDAR FOR DISCUSSION

12. COMMISSIONERS/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S REPORT
12A. Commissioner Gibbs expressed appreciation on behalf of the city of Murrieta to
Anne Mayer and County of Riverside Transportation and Land Management
Director Juan Perez for their help in moving the Clinton Keith Road Extension
Phase II project forward.
12B. Commissioner Andrew Kotyuk requested an update on the incident that
occurred last week on the SR-91 corridor and plans to address similar incidents
in the future.
David Thomas explained the Green River Road ramp was installed for use during
construction and staff is working on an operational plan so it can be
implemented as a permanent feature after the project is closed. Additionally,
staff is looking to implement gates similar to those on 1-10. He explained there
will be two gates in the median barrier, one in Orange County and in Riverside
Riverside County Transportation Commission Minutes
April 13, 2016
Page 9
County located near SR-71, and become part of the Commission's toll facility
incident management plan. He discussed how the gates would be used to safely
get the traffic off the freeway if there was an accident or incident.
12C. Anne Mayer announced:
• The 1-15 Express Lanes DBE/SBE Summit held on April 28 at Circle City
Center in Corona was a tremendous event. Attendance was terrific, and
the feedback received from the prime contractors and small businesses
expressed this event was the most efficient way to network, contact, and
meet business providers. She expressed appreciation to Commissioners
Rush and Zanowic for their attendance as well as a representative from
Commissioner Jeffries' office; and
• The 91/Perris Valley Line Metrolink service commences on Monday,
June 6. There will be a robust outreach program that will include station
locations, how to purchase a ticket, how to use the mobile handheld app,
and most importantly how to be safe. At this time, a video from the
St. Anthony's Operation Lifesaver joint outreach event in the Mecca area
was shown.
13. ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business for consideration by the Riverside County
Transportation Commission, Chair Matas adjourned the meeting at 10:34 a.m. The next
Commission meeting is scheduled to be held at 9:30 a.m., Wednesday,
June 8, 2016, Board Chambers, First Floor, County Administrative Center, 4080 Lemon

FISCAL YEAR 2016/17
June 8, 2016
Honorable Commissioners
Riverside County Transportation Commission
Riverside, California
FY 2016/17 Budget Introduction
A County on the Move — Completed Projects and Active Construction Highlight a Busy Year
Thank you for reviewing the Fiscal Year (FY) 2016/17 budget for the Riverside County Transportation Commission
(Commission or RCTC). This document provides an opportunity to evaluate the financial backbone of an innovative
and active public transportation agency. The upcoming fiscal year continues a concerted effort of unprecedented
investment and construction in Riverside County's (County) transportation infrastructure. The results of the
investment are becoming more obvious as a number of high -profile projects were completed in late 2015 and early
2016 and as work speeds ahead on the widening of State Route (SR) 91 in Corona. The completion of the projects
will assure better mobility and provide a positive and ongoing boost for local businesses and employers.
Projects to be Completed by FY 2016/17
In terms of high -profile project completion, the Perris Valley Line (PVL) Metrolink Extension project represents the
first expansion of the five -county Metrolink train system since the mid-1990's. For the County, the PVL expands
and revitalizes public transit service by establishing a transit backbone for Western Riverside County that includes
more trains, enhanced bus service, new commuter options, and an allure for new employers to locate to the
County. This major construction effort to extend Metrolink another 24 miles into the County wrapped up in spring
2016 with new service to new stations at Perris -South, Perris -Downtown, Moreno Valley/March Field, and
Riverside -Hunter Park.
In addition to funding new service, the Commission also invested in improved rail infrastructure by funding a
number of railroad grade separations, many of which were completed in FY 2015/16. In September 2015, the city
of Corona completed construction on the Auto Center Drive grade separation which was funded through a
combination of funding sources including state of California (State) Proposition 1B funding allocated by the
Commission. The city of Coachella soon followed in December with the opening of the Avenue 52 Grade
Separation. The city of Riverside completed the Riverside Avenue and Streeter Avenue Grade Separations in
February 2016, and the city of Banning soon followed with the opening of the Sunset Avenue Grade Separation in
March. In May the Clay Street Grade Separation was completed in Jurupa Valley. All of these grade separations
were made possible through productive partnerships with RCTC obtaining funding from a variety of sources to
assist local governments with project delivery. The result is added safety and capacity for residents and motorists
who are impacted by freight trains on a daily basis.
Progress on freeway projects has also been notable; in downtown Riverside, the California Department of
Transportation (Caltrans) completed work on the SR-91 high occupancy vehicles lane project which will
dramatically improve mobility and circulation throughout areas of the city near the freeway. The six -mile project
opened to traffic in March 2016. The only remaining work to be completed is to replace a railroad bridge which
crosses the freeway. The Commission, in cooperation with Caltrans, will issue a procurement in mid-2016 to
complete that work.
Work to widen a 12.5-mile segment of the Interstate (I) 215 between Scott and Nuevo Roads has been completed
easing access into the city of Perris, which is home to the Commission's largest public transit project —the PVL.
Projects Moving Forward
91 Project in Corona: Full Speed Ahead
In December 2013, the Commission broke ground on a $1.4 billion project to widen SR-91 through Corona. The
project consists of two tolled express lanes and the addition of a general purpose lane in each direction of SR-91
between the Orange County line and 1-15. The work will create 16,000 new jobs and is the largest ever funded by
the Commission. A total of 32 new bridges are to be constructed; 14 are complete and work is underway on the
remaining bridges including the direct connector between the SR-91 and southbound 1-15. The eventual
completion of the project will culminate in a transformation of Riverside County's transportation system with
reduced congestion, toll lane options, and enhanced transit service. The overall economic effect for the County
will be significant and will aid economic development opportunities throughout the region.
One recent accomplishment which took place in February during the construction of the 91 Project was a 55-hour
full freeway closure which enabled significant advancement of work at three key locations on the project including
the installation of falsework at the westbound Maple Street flyover on -ramp, paving at the 1-15 interchange, and
the demolition of half of the old Maple Street Bridge. The closure required close cooperation with a number of
public safety and neighboring agencies and proved to be highly successful without resulting in major traffic
problems during the weekend in which it took place.
1-10 Jefferson Interchange in Indio Breaks Ground
Over the last few years, the Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG), a key RCTC partner, has
completed construction on a number of key interchanges along 1-10. Construction has been completed on rebuilt
and expanded freeway interchanges at Palm Drive, Indian Canyon Drive, Bob Hope Drive, Date Palm Avenue, and
Monterey Avenue. The attention now shifts slightly eastward to another 1-10 interchange at Jefferson Avenue in
the city of Indio. The $42.3 million project to transform the interchange which connects the Coachella Valley's
largest city to the freeway broke ground in early 2015 and is expected to be completed in early 2017. The project
is being funded through a variety of state and local funding.
Looking Forward to an Exciting Future
Commission Approves Mid County Parkway Environmental Document
On April 8, 2015, the Commission approved the California Environmental Quality Act portion of the final
Environmental Impact Report (EIR)/Environmental Impact Summary (EIS) for the proposed Mid County Parkway
(MCP) project. Later in the year, the Federal Highway Administration approved the federal EIS. Project
development has now been sidetracked with a legal challenge to the state EIR, although the Commission has taken
action to set aside funding to purchase needed right of way for the project. Work will continue to resolve the legal
matter to allow for additional project development.
When completed, the $1.7 billion MCP project will construct a 14.3-mile, six -lane freeway from 1-215 in the city of
Perris to SR-79 in the city of San Jacinto. The project will also provide more convenient access to multimodal bus
and rail facilities in the city of Perris, including the new PVL extension of Metrolink service. With the
environmental document approved, design and engineering work will begin followed by property acquisition.
Yet another new corridor is also undergoing environmental studies. The SR-79 realignment project continues to
progress, and Commission action to approve the EIR is expected in 2017.
Unlike much of urbanized California, Riverside County still has a need to develop new transportation corridors to
provide added capacity for cars, trucks, public transit, and active transportation uses such as bicycling and walking.
Developing new capacity can be done in a manner that is complementary in maintaining the environment and
improving the quality of life for local residents. Transportation interacts with a variety of human needs including
better air quality, a reduction in water runoff, reducing the creation of greenhouse gases, and transportation
alternatives that promote better health through walking or bicycling. By taking a more holistic approach, the
importance of transportation actually grows larger and is valued as a vital necessity, but that can only happen as
long as capacity continues to grow.
Is Enhanced Coachella Valley Rail Service in our Future?
Added capacity includes more rail service in underserved corridors. RCTC, in coordination with Caltrans, the
Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), and CVAG, is studying the expansion of Amtrak passenger rail service to the
Coachella Valley and San Gorgonio Pass. The service is envisioned to provide an integrated, sustainable travel
mode; promote economic opportunities; and foster more livable communities. Currently, there are very limited
transit connections between Los Angeles and the Coachella Valley. This service would provide new travel options
between job centers and Coachella Valley tourism destinations. The study took a big step forward in mid-2015
with the approval of a $2.98 million grant from the FRA which fully funds the Commission's efforts to complete a
federally -required Alternatives Analysis and Preliminary Service Planning. While a number of steps are still
required before the service can be added, the project offers an exciting opportunity to offer a new transportation
option for those seeking to travel to and from the Coachella Valley from anywhere in southern California.
People Working — Building a Better Future
The Commission and its project partners at Caltrans, local jurisdictions, and transit agencies are investing in
transportation using a variety of local, state, and federal sources to build projects, plan and design new
improvements, and get people working and contributing to the local economy.
A recent success story in early 2016 demonstrated how transportation investments can create jobs and economic
opportunity. The Commission worked closely with a combination of public and private sector interests in a
successful effort to convince the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to relocate its main scientific facility and
headquarters to Riverside. While CARB's main reason for moving to Riverside was the opportunity for
collaboration with the University of California at Riverside, transportation facilities — including the PVL Metrolink
extension — were cited as important factors in bringing more than 500 high -paying, skilled jobs to the area. The
Commission's Commuter Assistance Program will also provide support to CARB's current employees who will be
changing their commute patterns when the facility opens in a few years.
During FY 2016/17, the Commission will invest $444 million in capital projects that include highway, regional
arterial, local streets and roads, and rail projects. The Commission's overall budget will exceed $680 million and
also includes funding of transit operations, payments to cities and the County for street and road improvements,
and management of smaller programs such as motorist and commuter assistance.
The Commission's status has become somewhat unique in southern California. As many transportation agencies
have consolidated functions and grown in size, the Commission remains true to the original intent of the State
legislation that first created it —now operating with a staff of 49 budgeted positions. This maintains the original
vision of the State Legislature when it created the Commission in 1976. By doing so, the Commission remains
effective in its role as a transportation planning and funding agency by maintaining productive relationships with
other agencies.
For example, Measure A funds local transportation priorities and needs. In FY 2016/17, the Commission will return
$51.4 million in funding to local cities and the County for local streets and roads needs.
The Commission also receives and programs funding from state and federal sources. This includes the State's
Transportation Development Act program dollars that are allocated primarily to the County's major public transit
providers. Measure A also pays its share by funding transit fare discounts and programs for senior citizens, persons
with disabilities, and individuals of limited means and by operating a commuter assistance program that provides
traveler information and ridesharing assistance to employers and commuters.
A Commitment to Riverside County
Ensuring local funding for transportation will require ongoing outreach to the public and transparent oversight and
management that ensures public confidence in the Commission's fiduciary, oversight, and visionary roles. This
budget document is intended to demonstrate the Commission's commitment to the public as well as documenting
the Commission's dedication to sound budget practices. This budget document is one of many ways the
Commission works to ensure public accountability and full transparency of its actions.
Yet another Commission priority is in customer service and is demonstrated in our investment in the Inland Empire
511 Traveler Information Service —known as IE511—and other motorist service programs such as outreach to
employers for ridesharing assistance, the establishment and maintenance of freeway call boxes, and the Freeway
Service Patrol program. As the Commission adds more responsibilities to become a toll facility operator, it will
increase RCTC's interaction with the public that will only strengthen our commitment to communicating in an
effective and proactive manner.
We welcome public input and participation and invite you to visit our website at www.rctc.org or to follow us on

GFOA Distinguished Budget Award
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) presented a Distinguished
Budget Presentation Award to RCTC for its annual budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2015. In order to
receive this award, a governmental unit must publish a budget document that meets program criteria as a policy
document, an operations guide, a financial plan, and a communications device.
The award is valid for a period of one year only. The Commission believes this budget continues to conform to
program requirements, and it will be submitted to GFOA to determine the Commission's eligibility for another
award.
Acknowledgements
The preparation of this budget has been a collaborative effort of the Commission's staff. The budget reflects the
Commission's desire to communicate the components of the budget in terms that are easily understandable and
supportable for the general public. Staff acknowledges and appreciates the guidance and leadership of the Board
of Commissioners and the sense of renewal and commitment it has and continues to inspire.

Commission Introduction
State of California (State) law created the Riverside County Transportation Commission (Commission or RCTC) in
1976 to oversee the funding and coordination of all public transportation services within Riverside County
(County). The Commission's mission is to assume a leadership role in improving mobility in the County. The
governing body consists of all five members of the County Board of Supervisors, one elected official from each of
the County's 28 cities, and one non -voting member appointed by the Governor of California. The Commission is
responsible for setting policies, establishing priorities, and coordinating activities among the County's various
transit operators and other agencies. The Commission also programs and/or reviews the allocation of federal,
state, and local funds for highway, transit, rail, non -motorized travel (bicycle and pedestrian), and other
transportation activities.
The Commission serves as the tax authority and implementation agency for the voter approved Measure A
Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). Measure A was originally approved by the County's electorate in 1988
and imposed a one-half of one cent transaction and use tax (sales tax) to fund specific programs that commenced
in July 1989 (1989 Measure A). The 1989 Measure A was approved for 20 years and expired on June 30, 2009. On
November 5, 2002, the voters of Riverside County approved the renewal of Measure A beginning in July 2009
through June 2039 (2009 Measure A).
Additionally, the Commission provides motorist aid services designed to expedite traffic flow. These services
include the Service Authority for Freeway Emergencies (SAFE), a program that provides call box service for
motorists; the Freeway Service Patrol (FSP), a roving tow truck service to assist motorists with disabled vehicles on
the main highways of the County during peak rush hour traffic periods; and Inland Empire 511 (IE511), a traveler
information system. These services are provided at no charge to motorists and are funded through a $1 surcharge
on vehicle registrations.
The Commission is also legally responsible for allocating Transportation Development Act (TDA) funds, the major
source of funds for transit in the County. The TDA provides two sources of funding: the Local Transportation Fund
(LTF), which is derived from a one -quarter of one cent state sales tax, and State Transit Assistance (STA), which is
now derived from the statewide sales tax on diesel fuel. Prior to 2010, STA revenues included the tax on gasoline.
Finally, the Commission has been designated as the Congestion Management Agency (CMA) for the County. As the
CMA, the Commission coordinates with local jurisdictions in the establishment of congestion mitigation
procedures for the County's roadway system.
