AMENDMENT TO FREEWAY SERVICE PATROL AGREEMENT 1) Approve Agreement No. 14-45-009-07, Amendment No. 5 to Agreement No. 14-45-009-00, with Steve’s Towing (Steve’s) to provide Freeway Service Patrol (FSP) services on Beat Nos. 1 and 2, and State Route 91 Extended Services on Beat Nos. 1 and 2 through June 30, 2018, for an additional amount of $432,000, for a total amount not to exceed $3,284,057; and 2) Authorize the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreement on behalf of the Commission. 8. 2018 STATE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM FINAL FUND ESTIMATE AND PROJECT RECOMMENDATIONS Shirley Medina, Planning and Programming Director, presented the 2018 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) final Fund Estimate and project recommendations, highlighting the following areas: • Past STIP cycles; • 2018 STIP Fund Estimate for Riverside County; • Palo Verde Valley and city of Blythe memorandum of understanding (MOU) STIP trade; • 2018 STIP Western Riverside County proposed projects; • A map depicting the 2018 STIP projects Western Riverside County; • 2018 STIP programming; and • Next steps. In response to Commissioner Spiegel’s question for pushing back the State Route 60 Truck Climbing lanes project and CV Link, Shirley Medina replied the Commission is carrying these projects over into the 2018 STIP. In response to Commissioner Michael Naggar’s question on how the 2018 STIP is adopted by the California Transportation Commission (CTC), Shirley Medina replied CTC staff evaluates the Commission’s recommendations to confirm the STIP projects are eligible and assesses the collective submittals from all of the regions. CTC staff then ensures the financially constrained requirement per year is met for the STIP submittals. In response to Commissioner Naggar’s question if the STIP can be altered before the CTC adoption, Shirley Medina replied once the CTC adopts the STIP those funds are guaranteed barring any financial crisis. She explained this is procedural, there is no competition, and there is nothing the Commission needs to do. Riverside County Transportation Commission Minutes September 13, 2017 Page 6 Anne Mayer explained that CTC staff may want the Commission to move projects from one year to the next. This is a financially constrained program overall, which is why Riverside County’s target share is $105 million. She explained Riverside County received this target share amount in the 2018 STIP cycle as it is directly related to the passage of SB 1. Anne Mayer stated if an initiative is successful to get a ballot measure on in 2018 to resend SB 1 that is the only potential opportunity for these funds to go away. Jerry Sincich, Vice Chair for the Temescal Valley Municipal Advisory Council, expressed support for the expansion of the Interstate 15 Express Lanes project. Mr. Sincich stated he thought the 91 Project would alleviate traffic on I-15 because there is gridlock that backs into the city of Lake Elsinore, which is impacting the residential, commercial, and industrial in the Temescal Valley. Mr. Sincich expressed there is concern from a safety standpoint with several accidents increasing in that area. M/S/C (Naggar/Radi) to: 1) Approve staff project recommendations for the Western Riverside County State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) share as part of the 2018 STIP submittal due to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) by December 15, 2017; 2) Include the Coachella Valley Association of Government’s (CVAG) STIP project programming recommendation for the Coachella Valley STIP share and forward to the CTC as part of the 2018 STIP submittal; 3) Forward the recommended 2018 STIP projects to the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) to conduct performance analysis as required by the STIP guidelines; 4) Approve Agreement No. 07-71-028-03, Amendment No. 3 to Agreement No. 07-71-028-00, with the city of Blythe (Blythe) to trade $608,024 of Palo Verde Valley STIP funds with Measure A Western Riverside County Highway funds to facilitate delivery of local arterial projects; and 5) Authorize the Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreement on behalf of the Commission upon CTC adoption of the 2018 STIP in March 2018.

AGREEMENT FOR FINAL DESIGN AND RIGHT OF WAY ACQUISITION FOR CONSTRUCTION OF PHASE 1 OF THE INTERSTATE 15/RAILROAD CANYON ROAD INTERCHANGE PROJECT IN THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE Alex Menor, Capital Projects Manager, presented the agreement for final design and right of way (ROW) acquisition for construction of Phase 1 of the I-15/Railroad Canyon Road Interchange project in city of Lake Elsinore (Lake Elsinore), highlighting the following: • A project vicinity map depicting the I-15/Railroad Canyon Interchange project; • Background – Lake Elsinore is the project sponsor, the Commission began managing in May 2011, and environment document and project report approved on August 25, 2017; • Action 1: Final design contract – 1) Procurement of the design firm followed Commission procedures; 2) Selection of firm based on demonstrated competence and professional qualifications, per Government code 4525; 3) RFQ process; 4) WKE earned highest score and proposed contract: $3,229,337; and 5) Price is about 12 percent of estimated construction amount of $27 million; • Action 2: Utility Relocations – Phase 1 utility agreements with nine different utility owners; • Action 3: Authorization to acquire the ROW needed for Phase 1 of the project; • Action 4 and 5: Caltrans cooperative agreement and Lake Elsinore and Commission design and ROW agreement; and • Funding for design and ROW phases. Commissioner Bob Magee stated over 17 years ago Lake Elsinore submitted its first project study report for I-15/Railroad Canyon Road Interchange project. He explained in 2011 he requested the Commission to take this project over as it became too complicated. Commissioner Magee expressed gratitude to Anne Mayer and staff that brought this project forward to a Phase 1 conclusion. Commissioner Adam Rush concurred with Commissioner Magee’s comments and congratulated Lake Elsinore for getting to this stage. He suggested given the complexity of this project if it is appropriate to increase the 10 percent contingency. Anne Mayer explained this is a very complex project and the 10 percent contingency is appropriate. If it appears there needs to be additional funding for the design phase staff would know early enough to come back to the Commission and ask for additional authorization without delay to the project. She stated there is a 12 percent ratio of design costs to construction costs so some of that complexity is built into the actual costs. Riverside County Transportation Commission Minutes September 13, 2017 Page 8 M/S/C (Magee/Washington) to: 1) Award Agreement No. 17-31-048-00 to WKE, Inc.

Recuse: Reed At this time, Commissioner Rush left the meeting. 10. DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN ONGOING VANPOOL SUBSIDY PROGRAM Brian Cunanan, Commuter and Motorist Assistance Manager, presented the development and implementation of an ongoing vanpool subsidy program, highlighting the following: • What is a vanpool – Larger vehicle platforms for up to 15 passengers and longer distances; • Vanpools = revenue – Low-cost transit mode; longer commute distances; high fare box recovery relative to bus and rail; and efficient services results in additional federal funding; • Market analysis and total vanpools by FY-End; • Program design – Marketing/customer support; $400/month vanpool subsidy; vanpool reports data to RCTC; RCTC reports data to NTD; and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) generates 5307 allocations; • Total program expenses and total 5307 revenue returned; and • Benefits for commuters – Reduction in vehicle miles traveled, reduction in harmful emissions, significant money and time saved, plus, reduced or free tolls, and quality of life. Commissioner Washington expressed appreciation for the program as it is a good use of funding and it potentially has all of the benefits that were outlined. He explained there was mention of southern Riverside County however he did not see the aspects of the program that were proposed actually serve any of that area. Brian Cunanan replied the program serves all of Western Riverside County so southern Riverside County would benefit as well. In response to Commissioner Washington’s clarification about a list of cities that primarily reside along the I-10 and SR-91 corridor, Brian Cunanan replied for those commuters heading into San Diego County would be supported by the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) vanpool subsidy program. He stated the residents within Riverside County would get the $400 per month subsidy from SANDAG. Riverside County Transportation Commission Minutes September 13, 2017 Page 10 Anne Mayer explained that some of the cross county designations are similar to the way the FTA allocates its funding. The goal is for adjacent counties to offer similar programs so commuters throughout Southern California can participate no matter where they live or work. M/S/C (Radi/Kaplan) to: 1) Approve the development and implementation of a Western Riverside County ongoing vanpool subsidy program; 2) Approve an allocation for FY 2017/18 through FY 2019/20 in the amount of $3 million in 2009 Measure A Western County Commuter Assistance Program (CAP) funds for the vanpool program initial three-year development and implementation; 3) Approve Agreement No. 15-41-038-03, Amendment No. 3 to Agreement No. 15-41-038-00, with WSP USA, Inc. (WSP), for professional services for vanpool program development and implementation, marketing plan development and program outreach/advertising, and program staff support, for an additional amount of $947,647, and a total amount not to exceed $7,382,976, and to extend the agreement for an additional year through June 30, 2020; 4) Approve Agreement No. 14-41-156-03, Amendment No. 3 to Agreement No. 14-41-156-00, with Media Beef, Inc.

PUBLIC COMMENTS Martin Wachs, Professor Emeritus of Urban Planning at UCLA, explained the Western Riverside Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP) is cited as an example of best practices. It has been documented that advanced mitigations through habitat conservation plans substantially save money. He discussed the importance of the recent passage of SB 1 that establishes funding for an advanced mitigation program, which allocates $30 million annually. Jamie Letterman, Attorney and a PHD Candidate of Urban Planning at UCLA, explained the research she has studied 20 similar HCP from multiple states and found almost unanimous support for HCP for streamlining environmental permitting as a result expediting private and public development. She discussed the potential permitting delay issues without an HCP. Ms. Letterman explained in many areas, including the Coachella Valley and Western Riverside County, the HCP’s ability to expedite transportation projects enables significant private economic development. Dan Silver, Chief Executive Officer for Endangered Habitat League, discussed the problematic issues before the MSHCP and its streamlining provisions. He expressed concern for major infrastructure projects going forward absent the framework of the MSHCP as litigation becomes more frequent. Mr. Silver expressed when developers and jurisdictions are collaborative, take constraints into account early, and use creative planning successful solutions easily present themselves. Ed Sauls, The Sauls Company, expressed these are two great organizations on two essential subjects, transportation and conservation. Mr. Saults expressed the clear obvious item is both transportation and conservation are willfully underfunded. 5. WESTERN RIVERSIDE COUNTY REGIONAL CONSERVATION AUTHORITY MULTIPLE SPECIES HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN AND TRANSPORTATION Tom Mullen, Former County Supervisor, presented the critically important parts to infrastructure, highlighting the following: • In 1970 the population of this County was 300,000 and today is 2,300,000; • In 1988 an injunction protected Stephen’s kangaroo rat in Riverside and San Diego Counties; • Additional protected species came to fruition: 1) in 1986 the Least Bell’s Vireo; 2) in 1993 the California Gnatcatcher, 3) in 1993 the Riverside Fairy Shrimp, Vernal Pool Fairy Shrimp, and the Delhi Sand Flower-Loving Fly; 4) in 1997 the Quino Checkerspot Butterfly; 5) in 1998 the San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat; and 6) in 2000 the Santa Ana Sucker; RCTC/WRCRCA Special Meeting/Workshop Minutes August 28, 2017 Page 3 • In order to comply with the Endangered Species Act (ESA) the MSHCP was adopted in 2003 and a permit was issued in 2004. The plan protects and sustains endangered and threatened animals, plants, and their habitats in a comprehensive way so local governments can expedite the construction of infrastructure to support growth particularly transportation facilities; and • The MSHCP is the largest HCP in the nation expressly for infrastructure to expedite it. Former County Supervisor Mullen expressed appreciation for all the public comments as the evidence is solid the Riverside County Integrated Project (RCIP) works and the MSHCP does exactly what it is supposed to do. At this time, Charles Landry, WRCRCA Executive Director presented details of the MSHCP, highlighting the following areas: • The MSHCP is a binding contract between RCA, the County, the cities, and the federal and state that administer the ESA; • The MSHCP by the numbers and a map depicting the MSHCP boundaries that covers 1.26 million acres; • Benefits of MSHCP – Since the MSHCP inception 17,000 permits were not affected by the MSHCP; a study by RAND Corporation concluded the MSHCP accelerated transportation projects by one to five years or more; and estimate $390 million savings from early delivery; • What changed with the MSHCP – 32 transportation projects expedited worth more than $5 billion, 70,000 jobs created, since the implementation of the plan there has only been three lawsuits; and the MSCHP provides NEPA and CEQA analysis; and • Life without the MSHCP – National leader in traffic congestion increased by 30 – 40 percent; 80+ hours per driver, per year; stifling economic growth for loss of jobs; infrastructure delays by one to five years per project increase, and increased litigation. Anne Mayer, RCTC Executive Director, presented the Commission’s history and why the Commission has supported the MSHCP, and highlighted the following: • The Commission’s history goes back nearly 20 years as this all had its genesis with the RCIP, and the Community Environmental Transportation Acceptability Process (CETAP) commitment:  In the late 1990’s early 2000’s the Commission’s Measure A Ordinance calls out the MSHCP in Western Riverside County; and requires local jurisdictions participate in the MSHCP to receive their local streets and roads disbursements from Measure A; RCTC/WRCRCA Special Meeting/Workshop Minutes August 28, 2017 Page 4  Each year the certification from RCA is taken to the Commission, which is the basis for the disbursement of funding;  The Commission is a planned signatory and it made a commitment to invest $153 million and $146 million has been paid to date to obtain coverage for impacts to endangered species; • How does the Commission benefit from the MSHCP – Allows take of covered plant and wildlife species; reduces schedule/cost uncertainty; streamlines environmental process; advanced mitigation = lower cost/higher quality; and environmental stewardship; • Projects that have advanced thanks to MSHCP – A project value list of Commission projects totaling $4.7 billion; • The other benefit for the Commission is quality of life in Riverside County and ensuring there is a good quality of life and good stewards of its environmental resources; and • A list of the MSHCP expediting infrastructure for the construction of more than 32 transportation improvement projects and just under $5 billion in projects delivered over the past 10 years that benefited from the MSHCP; and • Potential Perils of losing the MSHCP – Project by project mitigation – Schedule and cost uncertainty and mitigation uncertainty, squandered investment benefit, and dilutes Measure A project funding. Juan Perez, Transportation and Land Management Agency Director, County of Riverside, presented how the MSHCP benefited transportation projects, highlighting the following: • The County Transportation works in the unincorporated areas, and with many different cities on delivery of major infrastructure projects on a contract basis; • Provided a list of projects expedited under the MSHCP that directly benefited from the MSHCP totaling $1,183 Billion; • The MSHCP facilitated bridge projects – The River Road Bridge is an example and has been open for a number of years. It was done in a much more expedited process for the actual replacement and there is significant savings in operations and maintenance activities; • County Transportation experience before MSHCP -- the Cantu Galleano interchange on I-15 had a two-year consultation process with U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS); and required habitat acquisition in order to mitigate the impacts of endangered species; • In comparison after the MSHCP was approved, the Scott Road Interchange at the I-215 was a two-month consultation with USFWS; • County Transportation experience before the MSHCP for the San Jacinto River project – Surveys for all species, separate negotiations with state and federal agencies, lengthy negotiation for mitigation, negotiation for land acquisition, Permits 404/401/1602, and operations and maintenance: separate mini consultations; RCTC/WRCRCA Special Meeting/Workshop Minutes August 28, 2017 Page 5 • County Transportation after the MSHCP – Surveys for some species, RCA central coordination, greater certainty in mitigation, fees are set, Permits 404/401/1602, and operations and maintenance: exempt outside Cells; • The MSHCP also provided certainty and mitigation unlike the Cantu Galleano interchange where the County Transportation had to acquire over 600 acres to set aside for the Delhi Sands Flower-Loving Fly; and • A list of future projects to benefit from the MSHCP that the Transportation Department will work with local agencies to deliver. At this time, Charles Landry presented a summary of the infrastructure improvement projects for Western Riverside County. He concluded where are we today: • The MSHCP has paid for itself in time and money saved while preserving the County’s open space heritage; • 57,000 acres conserved and another 10,000 acres conditioned; and • Trying to increase recreational opportunities. Retired State Senator Dennis Hollingsworth provided details when he was first involved in the process in 1992 as a member of the Steven’s Kangaroo Rat Advisory Board. He expressed the MSHCP provided tremendous benefit for mitigation to transportation infrastructure. He requested clarification on the impact not only to public projects and infrastructure but also on impacts to private individuals and private land owners in trying to be heard by an agency that no longer has elected officials directly responsible for its functions if the MSHCP were not in place. Ed Sauls expressed gratitude for a very important presentation on critically important subjects. He explained one of the things that might offer some clarity is there are a list of projects in the MSHCP that covered activities and are permitted. There may also be different projects the County Transportation wants to achieve over the next 20-75 years that go beyond the covered list of activities. He stated that as much has been accomplished in acquiring 153,000 acres there is another 75,000-90,000 acres that still needs to be acquired, much of it from private sources. The funds are not yet available for that and the private owners need help as they cannot develop the property until it is acquired. Howard Omdahl, a developer in Riverside County since 1984, stated observing this process through the years and it getting more complicated. He expressed the need to keep the MSHCP and thanked Dennis Hollingsworth for his comments as this process needs to be kept available and to work harder to get the USFWS, Regional Quality Water Board, and the Army Core of Engineers on board with this process, which will benefit these agencies. RCTC/WRCRCA Special Meeting/Workshop Minutes August 28, 2017 Page 6 WRCRCA Vice Chair Jonathan Ingram expressed appreciation to staff from both agencies for the presentation and for the hard work that has been done to get this accomplished. He explained working diligently as a board member with the RCA to evaluate several of the issues that transpired over last year and a half. He suggested Charles Landry discuss the impacts of regional water authorities and what it has done when a project is brought to the table. Charles Landry replied the MSHCP does not cover wetlands and waters so there are actually different agencies that are a major part, which is the Core of Engineers and the Regional Quality Water Board that are in the MSHCP area. He stated one is the Santa Ana Board and the other is the San Diego Board and these agencies are appointed by the Governor and receive guidance from the state. Charles Landry provided details about working with the Core of Engineers, USFWS, and the Regional Water Quality Board. Former Supervisor Mullen stated this is a critical area and expressed gratitude for all the comments. He explained that the plan area has a hard line, and everybody outside of it has flexibility. He discussed the issues with the outside agencies and used the Santa Margarita Water Board as an example in the 1980’s, which was changed legislatively. He suggested starting with RCIP doing the Special Area Management Plan (SAMP) and once that realignment can take place this year to bring it under one regional board. Commissioner Kevin Jeffries explained for those that have not had the opportunity to meet with former Supervisor Mullen he suggested to due to his knowledge and experience related to the MSHCP. He expressed gratitude to Dan Silver for doing a great job consulting with the RCA Board on his opinions to new development and the challenges. He expressed concern the city of Lake Elsinore (Lake Elsinore) has absolutely no projects funded although Lake Elsinore gave up 3,000 – 4,000 acres and suggested this issue needs to be corrected. Commissioner Jeffries expressed not a single interchange along the I-15 corridor has been improved in Lake Elsinore however, every other city along the corridor received significant improvements. Commissioner Jeffries expressed keeping Riverside County’s open space and preserving it. He stated one thing that is not being discussed is holding back land for tribal preservation concerns since these lands have historical significance and the agency has no comment in the process. He stated if 75,000 – 90,000 acres needs to be acquired and the RAND study put a price tag that was in the billions, how does it get paid. Charles Landry replied the cost of land overtime for an average acre to purchase has been about $8,000, which is the same as it was in the RAND study. He explained the individual parcels in particularly on the west side on 15/215 corridors there is an average of about $14,000 per acre. In general, the total amount is $1 billion to $1.5 billion to purchase the entire piece. Charles Landry explained there is also a one-third two-thirds strategy, which is important as one-third is supposed to be achieved by state and federal grant funds. There is still a lot to do and the biggest challenge is funding and how to get there. RCTC/WRCRCA Special Meeting/Workshop Minutes August 28, 2017 Page 7 Commissioner Bob Magee explained when the need for this meeting was brought to RCTC Chairman John Tavaglione the goal was to ask a fundamental question: does the MSHCP need to be modified to reflect changes and challenges, and how to improve it. He expressed appreciation for the academics from UCLA that came to the meeting. He replied to Ms. Letterman about her comment for economic development and HCPs being invisible and suggested to meet Mr. Sauls and Retired Senator Hollingsworth to get the property owner prospective. He then invited Ms. Letterman to Lake Elsinore to show what has transpired. Commissioner Magee explained the goal of the MSHCP was to streamline the approval process and intended to give quicker processing certainty for the development community while protecting private property owner rights. He stated the resource agencies pledged their cooperation, as well as a financial commitment so all of the affected parties would work together. He discussed how the cities were threatened they would lose Measure A and Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) revenue. Commissioner Magee stated since Lake Elsinore joined as a regional partner about 14 years ago there has been no private development approved along Lake Elsinore’s 14-mile shoreline. He discussed how there is no enforcement by the resource agencies against urban campers or road land owners. Commissioner Magee expressed while other jurisdictions have been asked to give up little or no acreage to the plan there is no end in sight to the ongoing conservation efforts within Lake Elsinore’s boundaries as nearly 4,000 acres has been permanently removed in favor of the MSHCP. He explained having a conversation today for the project study report (PSR) for the I-15 Railroad Canyon Road interchange project, which has been approved after over 17 years after the original PSR was submitted. There are no permits and no funding for permanent improvements along the five interchanges that exist within Lake Elsinore. He expressed not seeing equal treatment with his other partners in fact it is a burden on Lake Elsinore. He is encouraging his collogues to have a discussion about how to make this better, how to make this fairer for Lake Elsinore’s community, and the project by project mitigation discussions with the agencies continue. WRCRCA Vice Chair Ingram stated understanding Commissioner Magee’s frustration and concurred with Commissioner Jeffries’ comments. He stated that habitat issues are not going away and the Steven’s kangaroo rat program was the most successful program in the entire state and still in existence. He explained Commissioner Jeffries noted how we pay for the sins of the rest of the state of California and he suggested if the agencies want to look for resources in funding the plan needs to be modified, there needs to be the ability to negotiate and barter, and there needs to be a regional land bank from this County. He expressed this means the other counties that have benefited over the years needs to provide some of that support and start helping fill these coffers to complete this plan. RCTC/WRCRCA Special Meeting/Workshop Minutes August 28, 2017 Page 8 Chair Ashley referred to the sister plan in the east and that most of the Coachella Valley is going to end up in a habitat plan. The problem there was just one species, the French toad lizard, that made it impossible to build not even an interchange. He explained once the plan was approved six interchanges have been built, which was all part of the RCIP and it has been a huge success there. Charles Landry stated RCA staff will take a look at all of the comments and concerns and come back to their respective boards and see what other ideas that will come out of this. 7.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At its December 2007 meeting, the Commission awarded an agreement with 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. As part of the recurring contracts process, the Commission approved a five-year extension through June 30, 2018. 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, which reported findings and submitted to the State Board of Equalization (SBOE) for review and determination of errors in sales tax reporting related to 671 businesses. Through 4Q 2016, the SBOE approved 456 of these accounts for a total sales tax recovery of $7,642,288. Updated amounts for 1Q 2017 will be provided once received from MuniServices. If the SBOE concurs with the error(s) for the remaining claims, the Commission will 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. After December 31, 2017, the SBOE duties regarding sales and use tax will be transferred to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, and the Office of Tax Appeals will hear appeals. Additionally, MuniServices provided the Commission with the quarterly sales tax summary report for 1Q 2017. Most of the 1Q 2017 Measure A sales tax revenues were received in the second quarter of calendar year 2017, during April 2017 through June 2017, due to a lag in the sales tax 1 Agenda Item 7A calendar. The summary section of 1Q 2017 report is attached and includes an overview of California’s economic outlook, local results, historical cash collections analysis by quarter, top 25 sales/use tax contributors, historical sales tax amounts, annual sales tax by business category, five-year economic trend for significant business category (construction), and final results. Taxable transactions for the top 25 tax contributors in Riverside County generated 20.5 percent of taxable sales for the benchmark year ended 1Q 2017 – comparable to the benchmark year ended 1Q 2016. The top 100 tax contributors generated 34 percent taxable sales for the benchmark year ended 1Q 2017, comparable to the 33.9 percent benchmark year ended 1Q 2016. In the Economic Category Analysis below, all six categories experienced new highs in the 1Q 2017 benchmark year compared to the prior seven benchmark years. An analysis of sales tax performance by quarter through 1Q 2017 is attached and illustrates fairly consistent cycles for sales tax performance for most of the economic categories since the economic recession in 2009. For 8 of the top 10 segments (auto sales-new, restaurants, department stores, miscellaneous retail, building materials-wholesale, apparel stores, food markets, and building materials-retail) during the past eight benchmark year quarters, sales tax receipts reached a new high point. The 8 segments represent 61.9 percent of the total sales tax receipts. Service stations and light industry representing 7.4 percent and 4.3 percent respectively, were lower than the 1Q 2016 benchmark year due to lower fuel prices and completion of renewable energy developments in Riverside County, respectively. These top 10 segments represent 73.6 percent of the total sales tax receipts. For the other 19 segments representing 26.4 percent of the total sales tax receipts, 14 segments representing 22.3 percent of the total sales tax receipts reached new high points in the benchmark year 1Q 2017. % of Total / % Change RCTC State Wide Riverside County San Bernardino County Inland Empire South Coast S.F.

This is the eighteenth consecutive quarter since 4Q 2008, that auto sales-new and department stores have been in the top three economic segments. Growth seen in previous quarters for service stations segment has been declining continuously from the high in the last six years due to lower fuel prices. Restaurants replaced service stations in the top three economic segments beginning in 4Q 2014. During the review of the 1Q 2017 detailed report with MuniServices, information regarding sales tax comparison by city and change in economic segments (two highest gains and two highest losses) from 1Q 2017 to 1Q 2016 was provided and is attached. Staff continues to monitor monthly sales tax receipts and other available economic data to determine the need for any adjustment to the revenue projections. Staff will utilize the forecast scenarios included with the complete report and receipt trends in assessing such projections.

Transportation Commission FROM: Budget and Implementation Committee Jillian Guizado, Legislative Affairs Manager THROUGH: Anne Mayer, Executive Director SUBJECT: State and Federal Legislative Update BUDGET AND IMPLEMENTATION COMMITTEE AND STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Commission to receive and file an update on state and federal legislation. DISCUSSION: State Update AB 1189 (E. Garcia) The Commission’s sponsored legislation is on Governor’s Brown’s desk for consideration. Staff, the Commission’s state advocate in Sacramento, and the coalition backing AB 1189 are communicating support of the bill and encouraging Governor Brown to sign the bill into law. AB 135 (Assembly Budget Committee) In accordance with the Commission-adopted 2017 State and Federal Legislative Platform, staff communicated the Commission’s support of AB 135, a budget trailer bill authored by the Assembly Budget Committee. AB 135, if approved, would make three important changes: 1) Caltrans would be authorized to perform National Environmental Policy Act assignment on all rail, transit, and multimodal projects in California; 2) Local and regional agencies could request approval of a letter of no prejudice to use local funding to advance SB 1 projects; and 3) Cities and counties would be given more time and flexibility for adopting Local Streets and Roads project lists for submittal to the California Transportation Commission. For self-help counties like the Commission, having the ability to advance local road funding enables us to get projects to construction sooner.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In 2009, the county of Riverside, in partnership with the Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG), Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG), Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), and the Commission, funded the development of a countywide travel demand model referred to as RIVTAM. RIVTAM was based on the SCAG regional model with greater network detail in Riverside County yet remaining consistent with the SCAG regional model. RIVTAM has been used by the Commission and local agencies as a tool to evaluate plans, programs, and projects to forecast and analyze traffic impacts and land use outcomes. RIVTAM is also specifically used for traffic studies and analyses required for environmental impact reports under the California Environmental Quality Act and the National Environmental Protection Act, in addition to supporting the Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) Nexus studies administered by WRCOG and CVAG. Local agencies also utilize the forecasts provided by RIVTAM in the development of general plans and specific plans. RIVTAM is in need of an update to incorporate changes to the network and modeling assumptions to be a reliable tool for transportation modeling and forecasting. The update will require consistency with the SCAG Regional Model used for the 2016 Regional Transportation Plan/ Sustainable Communities Strategies. WRCOG has taken the lead in preparing a scope of work and to be responsible for the development and maintenance of the model given its staffing capabilities. WRCOG committed $500,000 to fund the RIVTAM update and the county of Riverside, and CVAG have committed $50,000 and $25,000, respectively. The Commission has been requested to participate in funding the RIVTAM update in the amount of $200,000. 14 Agenda Item 7C Given the Commission’s reliance on transportation modeling for its Measure A program of projects and other regional planning and project implementation efforts, staff recommends the approval of $200,000 over a two-year period (Fiscal Year 2018/19 and FY 2019/20) for participation in the model update. STIP PPM funds are available to fund the Commission’s cost share.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Approval to proceed with the I-15 ELP (see Figure 1) was granted when the initial study with mitigated negative declaration /environmental assessment with finding of no significant impact was approved on May 4, 2016, by the California Department of Transportation, the lead agency under both the California Environmental Quality Act and the National Environmental Policy Act. The approved initial study /environmental assessment (IS/EA) includes a number of mitigation measures for project impacts, including compensatory mitigation for permanent impacts to riverine riparian habitat and Santa Ana sucker habitat as described in measures BIO-16, BIO-24, and BIO-25. 16 Agenda Item 7D Figure 1: I-15 Express Lanes Project Vicinity Map These compensatory mitigation measures are also conditions in project permits, including a Nationwide Permit 14 from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Section 401 Clean Water Certification from the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), 1602 Streambed Alteration Agreement for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), as well as the consistency determination under the Western Riverside County Multi-Species Habitat Program (January 2016), and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) biological opinion approved April 20, 2016. Currently, final permits and subsequent compensatory mitigation requirements are being negotiated with the resources agencies. It is anticipated that all permits will be secured by November 2017. Compensatory Mitigation Commitment Compensatory mitigation for activities authorized by USACE, RWQCB, CDFW permits, and the Biological Opinion are governed by regulations issued by the regulatory agencies. These regulations establish performance standards and criteria for the use of permittee-responsible compensatory mitigation, mitigation banks, and in-lieu fee programs. The RCRCD manages a USACE approved In-Lieu Fee (ILF) program for impacts within the Santa Ana River Watershed. Under the ILF program, RCRCD is authorized to sell mitigation credits for specific impacts resulting from USACE permitted projects. During the development of the final environmental document, Commission staff evaluated mitigation options and identified RCRCD as the most suitable resource for providing the necessary mitigation. Due to the types of 17 Agenda Item 7D resource mitigation required, including riverine riparian habitat and Santa Ana sucker habitat, and the location of an available mitigation site within the Santa Ana River, Commission staff narrowed its options for compensatory mitigation to the RCRCD Altfillisch project site, which provides the necessary mitigation required by the resource agencies. The Commission is required to mitigate for permanent impacts to riverine riparian habitat and jurisdictional waters of the state of California and the United States for the I-15 ELP. The mitigation requirements are outlined in the approved IS/EA with the mitigation commitment satisfied by the purchase of 10.25 acres of mitigation credits through the RCRCD ILF program. Additionally, project impacts Santa Ana sucker and Arroyo chub habitat can be satisfied through the purchase of 0.21 acre non-ILF restoration acreage at the RCRCD-owned Altfillisch project site located in the Santa Ana River south of Hamner Avenue bridge. Mitigation totals identified are subject to change pending the final permit approvals. Participation in the RCRCD ILF program satisfies the project’s compensatory mitigation requirement. Formal payment to RCRCD relieves the Commission of any further obligations regarding these resources. RCRCD will assume all responsibility to implement, manage, monitor, and report mitigation progress to the regulatory agencies. RCRCD Fee Structure 1) Deposit: RCRCD requires payment of a $10,000 deposit prior to negotiations with the party requesting mitigation services. This deposit covers administrative and staff time, material, and legal review costs associated with preparation of a conservation agreement. 2) Mitigation credit purchase based on impacts and mitigation ratios identified in the IS/EA: RCRCD will restore 0.21 acre of Santa Ana sucker habitat at a cost of $250,000, and rehabilitate 6.33 acres of riparian habitat, 0.51 acre of ephemeral drainage, and 3.81 acres of jurisdictional waters at a cost of $230,500 per acre ($230,500 x 10.65 acres = $2,454,825). The total cost is $250,000 (Santa Ana sucker habitat) + $2,454,825 = $2,704,825 (mitigation credit purchase). In addition to a 10 percent contingency amount of $270,482, for a total not to exceed amount is $2,975,307. The table below shows a concise breakdown of these costs. Habitat Type Amount (acres) Cost Total Cost Santa Ana Sucker .021 $250,000 $ 250,000 Riparian 6.33 $230,500/acre 1,459,065 Ephemeral Drainage 0.51 $230,500/acre 117,555 Jurisdictional Waters 3.81 $230,500/acre 878,205 Total 2,704,825 Contingency (10%) 270,482 TOTAL not to exceed $ 2,975,307 18 Agenda Item 7D Staff recommends mitigating for I-15 ELP permanent impacts to riverine riparian habitat, jurisdictional waters, and Santa Ana sucker habitat by entering into the deposit agreement in the amount of $10,000 and ILF agreement for purchase of credits with RCRCD in the amount of $2,704,825, plus a contingency amount of $270,482, for a total amount not to exceed $2,985,307. Under the deposit agreement, the Commission is responsible for all RCRCD costs incurred by RCRCD related to the preparation of a conservation agreement. Staff anticipates any excess of actual costs above the deposit amount would be minimal; therefore, staff recommends the contingency amount of $270,482 be available for any minimal increase in the costs related to the preparation of the conservation agreement.

RCRCD and Developer are sometimes referred to in this Deposit Agreement individually as a “Party,” or collectively as the “Parties.” 1.RCRCD. RCRCD is a Resource Conservation District formed for the control of runoff, the prevention or control of soil erosion, the development and distribution of water, and the improvement of land capabilities pursuant to Public Resources Code section 9151 et seq. RCRCD may accept grants of money, land, and conservation easements to carry out its purposes, and may establish and charge fees for services provided upon request pursuant to Public Resources Code sections 9401 et seq. RCRCD commonly performs habitat restoration, conservation, creation and/or similar activities (“conservation”) for project proponents seeking permits from regulatory agencies. 2. Developer. RCTC is a Regional Transportation Planning Agency created by the California State legislature in 1970 to provide local agencies in Riverside County more control and input on transportation matters. RCTC plans and implements transportation and transit improvements, assists local governments with money for local streets and roads, finds solutions for commuters and goods movement and develops strategies to ensure everyone has access to transportation. The Interstate 15 (I-15) Express Lanes Project (Project) will construct one to two tolled express lanes between Cajalco Road and State Route 60 in the cities of Corona, Norco, Eastvale, and Jurupa Valley and portions of unincorporated Riverside County. Improvements will include, but are not limited to, addition of toll lanes, reconstruction of interchanges and retaining walls, construction of new sound walls, utility relocations, paving and roadway modifications, and installation of tolling equipment. The project is anticipated to begin construction in 2018. 3. Purpose A proposed development project may adversely impact a species, habitat, riparian areas, or other sensitive environmental resources. As a condition to issuing a permit required for such project, a regulatory agency may require mitigation in the form of land setaside, restoration or other activity. Regulatory agencies may approve the project proponent’s retention of RCRCD to perform habitat conservation, acceptance of ATTACHMENT 1 20 24632.00005\1548635.5 a conservation easement, or other activity as mitigation of project impacts. Any such conservation to be performed by RCRCD would be completed under the terms of a separate conservation agreement with RCRCD. The RCRCD will be required to process, prepare and review various mitigation-related contracts, agreements, and other documents between the Developer and RCRCD (“Transaction”). To facilitate this, the RCRCD will need to conduct meetings, review permits and other background materials, evaluate habitat assessments, review and draft the mitigation-related contracts, agreements or other documents, perform due diligence (e.g. title review, site inspection and other related activities), as well as perform other tasks, which may include preparing other miscellaneous documents related to the Transaction. In negotiating the Transaction between the RCRCD and the Developer, RCRCD will incur expenses including, but not limited to, legal expenses, administrative and staff expenses, materials, labor, etc. (“Expenses”). If the proposed Transaction goes forward, or if it is cancelled, abandoned, modified, disapproved or otherwise does not proceed, then RCRCD will have expended monies, resources and/or materials to pay for the Expenses. By this Deposit Agreement, the RCRCD requests, and Developer agrees to provide, a deposit to RCRCD to cover and defray the above-listed Expenses. 4. Deposit. (a) Based on RCRCD’s prior experience, the Parties agree that TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($10,000) is a reasonable amount calculated to cover the anticipated Expenses incurred prior to execution and recording of a conservation easement and/or other agreements with respect to the Transaction (“Deposit”). If RCRCD determines that its incurred costs will exceed the Deposit amount, RCRCD shall notify Developer in writing, and may request additional Deposit monies before proceeding further with the potential Transaction. (b) In the event that the Parties successfully complete the Transaction, RCRCD shall deduct from the Deposit all Expenses related to the Transaction; any remaining portion of the Deposit shall be returned to Developer or applied to the mitigation project costs. (c) In the event that the Parties do not successfully complete the Transaction, the RCRCD shall deduct the Expenses from the Deposit and return any remaining portion to Developer as in Paragraph 4(b), above. Developer may cancel this Deposit Agreement and receive a refund of the remaining Deposit and an accounting of Expenses at any time. To obtain this refund and accounting, Developer must send to RCRCD, by certified mail, a written notice of cancellation, requesting an accounting and a refund of any remaining Deposit monies. RCRCD shall perform such accounting and refund any remaining Deposit monies within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the cancellation notice and request. 5. Anticipated Mitigation 21 24632.00005\1548635.5 The Parties expect any anticipated mitigation to be the normal and ordinary conservation that RCRCD commonly performs; however, it is not yet known what the regulatory agencies will actually require. RCRCD makes no warranties or representations and cannot guarantee that RCRCD will be able to provide the mitigation required by the regulatory agencies; RCRCD only represents that it will make a good faith effort to perform its normal and ordinary conservation within its statutory authority, pursuant to the terms of a separate agreement to be executed by the Parties. 6. Nature of Rights Granted Developer hereby acknowledges and agrees this Deposit Agreement only provides a deposit to cover or defray Expenses RCRCD will incur in the Transaction. This Deposit Agreement is not a conservation easement, a donation agreement or a conservation services agreement, nor does this Deposit Agreement guarantee that the Parties will eventually consummate or successfully complete the Transaction. 7. Mitigation Responsibility The Parties explicitly agree that this Deposit Agreement does not commit RCRCD to actually performing any mitigation, mitigation-related conservation, or related activity. No responsibility or liability therefor shall accrue to the RCRCD. If the RCRCD ever conducts any mitigation on the Property at Developer’s request, the RCRCD will make no warranties or representations and cannot guarantee that the RCRCD will be able to provide any particular mitigation that may be required of the Developer by any regulatory agency, including but not limited to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the California Department of Fish and Game, or the State or Regional Water Quality Control Boards. Developer agrees that any requests for RCRCD to perform any mitigation, mitigation-related conservation, or related activity, including associated reporting for such activities, may cost extra and is not covered by this Deposit Agreement. Developer remains responsible for obtaining final approval from the Regulatory Agencies for satisfaction of any of its permit conditions. 8. Miscellaneous (a) Neither Party may assign its rights or obligations under this Deposit Agreement without the express written consent of the other, which consent may be withheld in such Party’s sole and absolute discretion. In the event of an authorized assignment, this Deposit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of those permitted assigns. (b) The rights and obligations set forth herein are intended exclusively for the benefit of the Parties and shall not be construed to convey any rights or remedies to any third party. (c) This Deposit Agreement contains the entire understanding between the Parties with respect to its subject matter, and supersedes all prior agreements, oral or written, and all prior or contemporaneous discussions or negotiations between the Parties. This Deposit Agreement cannot be amended except in writing signed by both Parties. 22 24632.00005\1548635.5 (d) This Deposit Agreement and all documents executed and delivered in connection herewith shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California. Any action to interpret or enforce this Deposit Agreement shall be brought and maintained exclusively in the courts of and for Riverside County, California. (e) If any provision of this Deposit Agreement is invalid or unenforceable with respect to either Party, the remainder of this Deposit Agreement or the application of such provision to persons other than those as to whom it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected and each provision of this Deposit Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. (f) If any legal action or other proceeding is brought for the enforcement of this Deposit Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses, and other costs incurred in that action or proceeding in addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Deposit Agreement as of the last date set forth below. RIVERSIDE-CORONA RESOURCE CONSERVATION DISTRICT, a California resource conservation district RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION, a California Regional Transportation Planning Agency By: ____________________________ By: ____________________________ Name: ____________________________ Name: ____________________________ Title: ____________________________ Title: ____________________________ Date: Date: 23 ATTACHMENT 2 24 25 26 27 AGENDA ITEM 7E Agenda Item 7E RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: October 11, 2017 TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: Western Riverside County Programs and Projects Committee David Thomas, Toll Project Manager THROUGH: Anne Mayer, Executive Director SUBJECT: Agreement with the City of Corona for Improvements to the Ontario Avenue Interchange at Interstate 15 WESTERN RIVERSIDE COUNTY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS COMMITTEE AND STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Commission to: 1) Approve Agreement No. 18-31-050-00 with the city of Corona (City) for the Commission’s fair share of improvements to the Ontario Avenue Interchange at Interstate 15 (I-15) due to impacts from the State Route 91 Corridor Improvement Project (91 Project), in the amount of $1,337,072, plus a contingency amount of $133,928, for a total amount not to exceed $1,471,000; 2) Authorize the Executive Director, or designee, to approve release of contingency work up to the total authorized amount as may be required for the 91 Project; and 3) Authorize the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreement on behalf of the Commission. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Commission’s 91 Project (shown in Figure 1) Final Traffic Study Report (Report), completed in 2010, analyzed the impacts of the 91 Project on various intersections throughout the City. The Final Environmental Document (FED) completed in 2012 identified the 91 Project’s fair share for specific traffic improvements within the City. 28 Agenda Item 7E Figure 1: SR-91 Corridor Improvement Project Vicinity Map The Ontario Avenue Interchange is the closest access location to the Riverside 91 Express Lanes from I-15 and will continue to be after the I-15 Express Lane Project (I-15 ELP) is constructed and operational. The Report identified 91 Project impacts to the operations of the Ontario Avenue Interchange. Staff and the City developed a plan to mitigate these impacts. The plan includes the addition of one lane in each direction to Ontario Avenue between Compton Avenue and the I-15 northbound ramps and necessary modifications to connecting roadways between these limits. Commission staff performed an independent cost estimate for the Ontario Avenue Interchange improvements (Project) estimated at $6,077,600, which includes all phases of project development including support costs. The Commission’s fair share as identified in the FED is 22 percent of the Project costs. The Commission’s fair share contribution is currently estimated to be $1,337,072, which will be used to reimburse the City for actual costs of the Project, and for no other purpose. The City is planning to complete the Project by 2020. Because the Project will potentially impact the I-15 ELP, coordination between the Commission and the City prior to and during construction of the Project is crucial to mitigate potential impacts that Project construction may have on the I-15 ELP. 29 Agenda Item 7E Staff recommends approval of Agreement No. 18-31-050-00 with the City for the Commission’s fair share of improvements to the Ontario Avenue Interchange at I-15 due to impacts from the 91 Project, for $1,337,072 plus a contingency of $133,928, for a total amount not to exceed $1,471,000. Staff also recommends authorization for the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreement.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The 91 Project (shown in Figure 1) crosses over BNSF property in four locations. 40 Agenda Item 7F Figure 1: SR-91 Corridor Improvement Project Vicinity Map At its May 14, 2014 meeting, the Commission approved the following four construction and maintenance (C&M) agreements with BNSF for a total not to exceed amount of $8,053,475: a) Agreement No. 14-31-112-00, East Porphyry Overhead, located just south of the 15/91 interchange; b) Agreement No. 14-31-113-00, East Prado Overhead, located just east of the 71/91 interchange; c) Agreement No. 14-31-114-00, West Porphyry Overhead located just west of the 15/91 interchange; and d) Agreement No. 14-31-115-00, West Prado Overhead located adjacent to the SR-91/Green River Road interchange. At the end of 2015, it became apparent to staff the originally estimated budget for flagging services would not be adequate to complete the work involved. Staff determined it was in the Commission’s best interest to include flagging services for all of the C&M agreements under Agreement No. 14-31-114-00. In April 2016, the Commission approved Amendment No. 1 to all four BNSF agreements for the 91 Project that included a decrease to Agreement Nos. 14-31-112-00, 14-31-113-00, and 14-31-115-00, and an increase to Agreement No. 14-31-114-00 for a total amount not to exceed $9,053,475. This resulted in a revised total amount not to exceed $6,921,234 for Agreement No. 14-31-114-00, with a remaining contingency of $276,240. In June 2017, the Commission approved Amendment No. 2 to Agreement No. 14-31-114-00 to allocate the remaining contingency and an additional $223,760, for extended flagging services related to the 91 Project for a total amount not to exceed $7,421,234. During the close out phase of the 91 Project, several unforeseen conditions have occurred that have caused the remaining work adjacent to the railroad to extend beyond the planned schedule. 41 Agenda Item 7F Therefore, additional BNSF flagging will be required to complete this remaining work. The additional BNSF flagging, estimated at $200,000, is required to support the 91 Project through final acceptance scheduled for November 15, 2017. Since the BNSF C&M agreements are between BNSF, the Commission, and Caltrans, the Commission is invoiced and directly pays for the BNSF flagging services. However, per the design-build contract, the design-builder is responsible for the costs associated with all BNSF provided flagging services and is invoiced by the Commission for those costs. Such reimbursements effectively reduce the expenditures recorded. Staff recommends approval of Agreement No. 14-31-114-03, Amendment No. 3 to Agreement No. 14-31-114-00, with BNSF for extended flagging services in the amount of $200,000, for a total amount not to exceed $7,621,234. Staff also recommends authorization for the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the amendment.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In October 2015, the Commission approved Agreement No. 16-31-023-00 with the IERCD for Coastal Sage Scrub Restoration in an amount not to exceed $1,241,459. The Commission contracted with the IERCD for implementation of the compensatory mitigation plan required by the State Route 91 Corridor Improvement Project (91 Project) shown in the figure below. 48 Agenda Item 7G Figure 1: SR-91 Corridor Improvement Project Vicinity Map IERCD is responsible to fulfill all requirements of the compensatory mitigation plan. This includes site preparation, fencing, planting, irrigation, and five years of maintenance. IERCD assumes all responsibility to implement, manage, monitor, and report mitigation progress to the Commission and the agencies involved. In November 2015, IERCD signed a contract with Habitat Restoration Services and started mobilization activities. Below is a summary of the activities that were completed from November 2015 to September 2016: • Right of entry issued May 2016 to IERCD by California Department of Parks and Recreation; • California gnatcatcher (CaGN) and nesting bird surveys; • Insect monitoring; • Placement of flagging for work areas; • Weed abatement; • Early clearing and grubbing for placement of water tank; and • Design of temporary irrigation system. Caltrans is the lead agency for coordination of the 91 Project’s Biological Opinion and Section 7 consultation with U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). In September 2016, Caltrans, through discussions with USFWS, indicated that the restoration work may have an effect on the CaGN, a federally endangered species, which is known to occur at the restoration site. As a result of this potential effect to the CaGN, Caltrans requested a stop work of the restoration activities until 49 Agenda Item 7G Caltrans completes an amendment to the 91 Project Biological Opinion to cover the restoration work (OR/WRIV-08B0733/11F0547 dated November 30, 2011). The Biological Opinion amendment took eight months to coordinate and was received by the Commission on April 28. This is considered reasonable for this unforeseen involvement of a federally endangered species. As a result of the approximate 8-month delay and additional biological monitoring requirements, IERCD indicated that additional funding in the amount of $114,660, would be required to reinitiate the effort and complete the restoration work. The table below provides a summary of the IERCD costs for additional funding required.

RCTC and IERCD are sometimes referred to individually as “Party” and collectively as “Parties.” RECITALS A. Grantor and Grantee previously entered into an Agreement to Facilitate Compensatory Mitigation Efforts on October 27, 2015 (“Agreement”). B. Pursuant to Section 1.F of the Agreement, IERCD secured a right of entry permit to access the Chino Hills State Park from the California State Department of Parks (the “Department”) in February 2016. C. As a part of the Services performed under the Agreement, IERCD conducted baseline surveys, mapped native vegetation, delineated areas for restoration, obtained approval of a fire plan, completed a CEQA process to satisfy Department requirements, and began site preparation, including the installation of fencing and non-native species removal. D. In September 2016, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (“FWS”) temporarily halted activities at the Site after learning that RCTC had not completed informal consultation with FWS as outlined in the BO regarding potential impacts to the California Gnatcatcher (“CAGN”) associated with the performance of the Services. E. RCTC completed the informal consultation with FWS as detailed in a letter from FWS addressed to Scott Quinnell dated April 28, 2017 attached as Exhibit A to this Amendment and incorporated herein by this reference (“FWS Letter”) outlining additional biological monitoring requirements and plans to avoid potential negative impacts on CAGN as IERCD continues to perform the Services. F. IERCD requires additional funding from RCTC to offset the additional costs that will be incurred due to the delays described above and the additional requirements by the FWS Letter (“Additional Services”). H. RCTC agrees to pay for the Additional Services and IERCD agrees to restart the Services, along with the Additional Services, upon receipt from RCTC of the Additional Fee, as further defined herein. 51 2 TERMS NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals, which Recitals are incorporated herein by this reference, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and based on the mutual covenants contained herein, the Parties do hereby modify the Agreement as follows: 1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not separately defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement. 2. Additional Fee. RCTC agrees to pay IERCD ONE HUNDRED FOURTEEN THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED SIXTY AND NO/100’S DOLLARS ($114,660.00), reflecting IERCD’s reasonable additional costs to perform the Additional Services, as described in the Recitals above (“Additional Fee”). This amount is in addition to the Fee paid by RCTC to IERCD under the Agreement. 3. When Payment Due. The Parties agree that the Additional Fee is due and payable in full on the Execution Date of this Agreement. IERCD agrees to provide RCTC with a written letter of receipt no later than 7 days after receipt of the Additional Fee. 4. Remainder Unchanged. Subject to the modifications described above, the Agreement remains in effect and binding upon the Parties.

Dated: , 2017 GRANTOR: RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION, a government transportation agency By: Anne Mayer, Executive Director Dated: , 2017 GRANTEE: INLAND EMPIRE RESOURCE CONSERVATION DISTRICT, a governmental special district By: Paul Williams, President 53 4 Exhibit A (April 28, 2017 Letter from FWS to Mr. Scott Quinnell) 54 5 55 6 56 AGENDA ITEM 7H Agenda Item 7H RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: October 11, 2017 TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: Western Riverside County Programs and Projects Committee Edda Rosso, Capital Projects Manager THROUGH: Anne Mayer, Executive Director SUBJECT: Amendment to Agreement with Best, Best & Krieger LLP for Legal Services for the Perris Valley Line Project WESTERN RIVERSIDE COUNTY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS COMMITTEE AND STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Commission to: 1) Approve Agreement No. 12-33-115-01, Amendment No. 1 to Agreement No. 12-33-115-00, with Best, Best & Krieger LLP (BB&K) to provide legal services for the Perris Valley Line (PVL) project for an additional amount of $775,000, and a total amount not to exceed $1.25 million; and 2) Authorize the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreement on behalf of the Commission. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At its September 12, 2012 meeting following a competitive procurement process, the Commission awarded Agreement No. 12-33-115-00 to BB&K to provide legal services for the PVL project for the total amount not to exceed $475,000. At that time, it was anticipated the project would be closed out in December 2015. Due to the extension of the environmental process as a result of California Environmental Quality Act litigation, the extended construction period, and the current negotiations with the construction contractor, the actual completion of construction has not occurred. General legal services for the Commission and its projects and programs have been provided by BB&K primarily through the annual recurring contract process. These legal services have been funded with local funds in the past. The Federal Transit Administration’s (FTA) Small Starts grant program utilized to partially fund the PVL project required all contracts to be competitively procured in accordance with federal requirements. In October 16, 2012, the Commission entered into an agreement with BB&K; the new separate agreement contained the required federal clauses. 57 Agenda Item 7H DISCUSSION: At this time, additional funding is needed to continue the close out process of the project and to defend claims submitted by the construction contractor. BB&K continues its legal services by responding to requests for information and providing legal support to the Commission. BB&K has hired a firm to assist on the technical matters of the claim and those additional expert costs are included in this amendment. These additional services are required and were not envisioned; however, they are consistent with the original scope. Accordingly, staff requests approval of the amendment. The amendment is necessary since the duration of construction and project close out will be longer than originally anticipated. The cost for the proposed services is $775,000, and staff requests approval for these additional services.

RIVERSIDE COUNTY BEST, BEST & KRIEGER TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION ___________________________ Signature By: _____________________________ ___________________________ John F. Tavaglione, Chair Name ___________________________ Title 60 AGENDA ITEM 7I Agenda Item 7I RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: October 11, 2017 TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: Western Riverside County Programs and Projects Committee Gary Ratliff, Facilities Administrator Marlin Feenstra, Project Delivery Director THROUGH: Anne Mayer, Executive Director SUBJECT: Agreement for On-Call Maintenance and Repair Services for the Commuter Rail Stations WESTERN RIVERSIDE COUNTY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS COMMITTEE AND STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Commission to: 1) Award Agreement No. 18-24-001-00 to Braughton Construction, Inc. to provide on-call maintenance and repair services for the commuter rail stations for a three-year term, in the amount of $2.6 million, plus a contingency amount of $120,000, for a total amount not to exceed $2.72 million; 2) Authorize the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreement on behalf of the Commission; and 3) Authorize the Executive Director, or designee, to execute task orders awarded to the contractor under the terms of the agreement. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Commission owns and operates nine commuter rail stations (Riverside Downtown, La Sierra, North Main Corona, Jurupa Valley/Pedley, West Corona, Riverside-Hunter Park, Moreno Valley/March Field, Perris Downtown, and Perris South). Station maintenance and repair services are essential to preserve and maintain the Commission’s property investments. On-call station maintenance and repair services efficiently and effectively respond to hazards and provide safety measures generally related to minor construction repairs for pavement, gates and fencing, signs, safety rails, pathways, shelters, and plumbing. In September 2012, the Commission awarded an agreement to provide on-call station repair and maintenance services for a three-year term, and two one-year options, for a total amount of $1.25 million. At that time the Commission owned and operated five stations. With the inauguration of the Perris Valley Line on June 6, 2016, four new commuter rail stations were added for a total of nine stations. In June 2016 the Commission approved an additional amount of $850,000 to the existing agreement for an aggregate contract value of $2.1 million. 61 Agenda Item 7I The station repair and maintenance services are necessary to support the needs of the Commission’s nine commuter rail stations. Accordingly, staff initiated a procurement for these services. 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 proposal with price and other factors considered. Non-price factors include elements such as qualifications of firm, personnel, and the ability to respond to the Commission’s needs for on-call maintenance and repair services for the commuter rail stations as set forth under the terms of the Request For Proposals (RFP) No. 18-24-001-00. RFP No. 18-24-001-00 for on-call maintenance and repair services for the commuter rail stations was released by staff on July 13. A public notice was advertised in the Press Enterprise, and the RFP was posted on the Commission’s PlanetBids website, which is accessible through the Commission’s website. Utilizing PlanetBids, emails were sent to 271 firms, 66 of which are located in Riverside County. Through the PlanetBids site, 17 firms downloaded the RFP; 5 of these firms are located in Riverside County. One firm – Braughton Construction, Inc. (Rancho Cucamonga) – submitted a proposal. Utilizing the evaluation criteria set forth in the RFP, the proposal was evaluated and scored by an evaluation committee comprised of Commission and Bechtel staff. Since staff received one proposal, it reviewed the solicitation specifications for undue restrictiveness and surveyed potential sources that chose not to submit a proposal. Reasons for not submitting a proposal included other contractors having limited staff and enough projects on-hand. Staff concluded the requirements listed in the scope of work and other terms and conditions were not unnecessarily or excessively restrictive, an adequate opportunity to compete was provided, and factors other than the solicitation were responsible for the receipt of one proposal for this RFP. Accordingly, the evaluation committee provided final scoring based on a comprehensive evaluation of the written proposal. Based on the evaluation committee’s assessment, the evaluation committee determined Braughton Construction, Inc. to be qualified to perform the work outlined in the scope of services. As a result of the evaluation committee’s assessment of the written proposal, the evaluation committee recommends Braughton Construction, Inc. for award of on-call maintenance and repair services for the commuter rail stations for a three-year term in the aggregate amount of $2.72 million, including a $120,000 contingency amount. Initially, this RFP contemplated an award for an additional two, two-year options; however, since only one qualified proposal was submitted, staff determined that the agreement term should be for a shorter period in order to conduct a new procurement that may yield additional proposals. 62 Agenda Item 7I The Commission’s model on-call maintenance and repair services agreement will be entered into with Braughton Construction, Inc., subject to any changes approved by the Executive Director, and pursuant to legal counsel review. The work is to be issued on an as-needed task order basis. Staff oversight of the contract will work to maximize the effectiveness of the consultants and minimize costs to the Commission. Staff projections for the maintenance and repair services and related funding under the new agreement are based on the following assumptions: • $400,000 in annual maintenance and repair expenditures for all nine commuter rail stations to be funded primarily using 2009 Measure A Western County rail funds; • $1.4 million for rehabilitation and efficiency projects (pavement rehabilitation and seals, concrete, fence, gates, Americans with Disabilities Act improvements, pedestrian pathways and shelters) for which grant funds are available or are expected in the future; and • $120,000 in contingency.

Contractor shall not perform, nor be compensated for, Extra Work without written authorization from Commission’s Representative. 3.3.5 Prevailing Wages. Contractor is aware of the requirements of California Labor Code Section 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 “public works” and “maintenance” projects. Since 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 $15,000 or more, Contractor agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage Laws. Commission shall provide Contractor with a copy of the prevailing rates of per diem wages in effect at the commencement of this Agreement.

This Agreement shall not prevent the employment of properly indentured apprentices in accordance with the California Labor Code, and no employer or labor union shall refuse to accept otherwise qualified employees as indentured apprentices on the work performed hereunder solely on the ground of race, creed, national origin, ancestry, color or sex. Every qualified apprentice shall be paid the standard wage paid to apprentices under the regulations of the craft or trade in which he or she is employed and shall be employed only in the craft or trade to which he or she is registered. If California Labor Code Section 1777.5 applies to the Services, Contractor and any subcontractor hereunder who employs workers in any apprenticeable craft or trade shall apply to the joint apprenticeship council administering applicable standards for a certificate approving Contractor or any sub-contractor for the employment and training of apprentices. Upon issuance of this certificate, Contractor and any sub-contractor shall employ the number of apprentices provided for therein, as well as contribute to the fund to administer the apprenticeship program in each craft or trade in the area of the work hereunder.

If such bond is required, no payment will be made to Contractor until the bond has been received and approved by the Commission. 3.3.10.2 Bond Provisions. Should, in the Commission’s sole opinion, any bond become insufficient or any surety be found to be unsatisfactory, Contractor shall renew or replace the affected bond within (ten) 10 days of receiving notice from Commission. In the event the surety or Contractor intends to reduce or cancel any required bond, at least thirty (30) days prior written notice shall be given to the Commission, and Contractor shall post an acceptable replacement bond at least ten (10) days prior to expiration of the original bond. No further payments shall be deemed due or will be made under the relevant Task Order until any replacement bond required by this section are accepted by the Commission.

Only bonds executed by an admitted surety insurer, as defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 995.120, shall be accepted. The surety must be a California-admitted surety and satisfactory to the Commission. If a California-admitted surety insurer issuing bonds does not meet these requirements, the insurer will be considered qualified if it is in conformance with Section 995.660 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, and proof of such is provided to the Commission. 3.4 Termination of Agreement. 3.4.1 Grounds for Termination. Commission may, by written notice to Contractor, terminate the whole or any part of this Agreement at any time and without cause by giving written notice to Contractor of such termination, and specifying the effective date thereof, at least seven (7) days before the effective date of such termination.

(Parsons) to complete preliminary engineering and environmental documentation for the 15/91 ELC, for in the amount of $1,882,000, plus a contingency amount of $188,200, for a total amount not to exceed $2,070,200; 3) Approve Agreement No. 18-31-055-00 with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) for project approval and environmental document (PA/ED) work; and 4) Authorize the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreements on behalf of the Commission. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On April 28, 2017, Governor Brown signed SB 132, which provides $427 million for a program known as the Riverside County Transportation Efficiency Corridor (RCTEC). The program comprises five needed projects in northwest Riverside County, including: new tolled express lanes connectors from the 91 Express Lanes to the northern portion of I-15; railroad grade separations at Jurupa Road and McKinley Street; an expanded freeway interchange at I-15 and Limonite Avenue; and the replacement of the Hamner Bridge over the Santa Ana River. The $427 million is a direct appropriation in the Fiscal Year 2016/17 State budget which made the funds available for these projects immediately. After the signing of SB 132, Commission staff began work planning the delivery of what is now known as the 15/91 ELC. The 15/91 ELC was considered and analyzed as part of the previously 86 Agenda Item 8 approved SR-91 Capital Improvement Project (now called the 91 Project) and will provide tolled express lanes connectors between the existing 91 Express Lanes and the future I-15 Express Lanes to the north of SR-91 (Figure 1 Vicinity Map and Attachment 3 Schematic). SB 132 allocated $180 million for the 15/91 ELC for all project development costs. To incentivize timely delivery of the RCTEC program of projects, SB 132 requires all funds be spent by June 30, 2023. Further, subject to and contingent on all environmental approvals, the Commission-led 15/91 ELC intends to consider the award a construction contract by June 2020, to meet its commitment to the RCTEC program. Figure 1 I-15/SR-91 Express Lanes Connector Project Vicinity Map SB 132 also statutorily created a task force to develop recommendations to accelerate project delivery of the RCTEC projects. On June 27, 2017, Governor Brown signed budget trailer bill AB 115 through which the Commission received additional project delivery authority to ensure cost- effective and timely delivery of the 15/91 ELC. Specifically, additional project delivery authority included the following methods to deliver a capital project: design-build, construction manager/general contractor, amendment to any existing I-15 Express Lanes Project (I-15 ELP) or 91 Express Lanes Project contract, and other delivery methods authorized by law. 87 Agenda Item 8 Overall Procurement Strategy In order to meet the Commission commitments and legislative mandates, staff analyzed those methods authorized by AB 115 and other methods to procure the needed 15/91 ELC services including: legal advisory, financial advisory, traffic and revenue studies, preliminary engineering, environmental documentation, project and construction management, civil design, construction, toll planning/design/installation, and toll operations and maintenance. Staff recommends delivering the 15/91 ELC through a series of contract amendments to existing contracts with engineering companies, contractors, toll vendors, legal and financial advisors. The table below provides a summary of the work elements, contracts, and approximate timing for Commission approval, with the award of any construction contracts being subject to completion of required environmental review.

Final civil design and construction represents the largest contract amendment amount anticipated. Staff and its consultants considered several procurement options for final civil design and construction. Other options included competitive procurements using progressive design-build, low-bid design-build, and more traditional design-bid-build procurements. Staff considered many factors such as procurement cost, design cost, construction cost, risk transfer to contractor, time to procure or negotiate change, schedule to open lanes, federal Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act loan impact, impact to existing I-15 ELP work, and others. At its April 2017 meeting, the Commission awarded a $243.9 million design-build contract to SAJV for the I-15 ELP final civil design and construction now underway. Staff concluded amending this existing SAJV design-build contract is the option that offers the Commission the best chance of meeting the 15/91 ELC goals of schedule, budget, and impact reduction. Further, staff believes this contract amendment to add the 15/91 ELC can be accomplished without delay of the opening of the I-15 ELP and would be a key element of future negotiations. Award of a contract amendment authorizing construction is contingent on and will not be made prior to completion of all required environmental review. 89 Agenda Item 8 In addition to amending the contract, staff would implement the following actions to ensure that a fair and reasonable cost, schedule and risk transfer is negotiated with SAJV for the 15/91 ELC work: • Perform an independent construction estimate by a suitable contractor/estimator to allow for a separate comparison of costs and to support direct negotiations with SAJV; and • Propose and adhere to a strict negotiation schedule with SAJV allowing for an alternative procurement strategy (plan B) to be timely implemented should staff feel it warranted due to the outcome of negotiations with SAJV. Staff recommends a low-bid, design-build as the alternative procurement strategy meeting the same 15/91 ELC goals should it be warranted. Preliminary Engineering and Environmental Documentation Work Phase The 15/91 ELC was originally part of the SR-91 Corridor Improvement Project (now called the 91 Project), which opened earlier this year. That project’s preliminary engineering and environmental document work phase started in 2007. Due to the recession and budget constraints, the 15/91 ELC and other project elements were not environmentally cleared with the 91 Project and were deferred to 2035. With the passage of SB 132, it is now possible to advance the 15/91 ELC earlier and closer to the original schedule. Consistent with the overall procurement strategy discussed previously, staff is recommending that a contract amendment to the Parsons agreement be approved to complete the preliminary engineering and environmental document work phase for the 15/91 ELC. Based on prior environmental work performed as part of the 91 Project and recent discussions with Caltrans management, staff believes an environmental revalidation of the original 91 Project environmental impact report/environmental impact statement is the appropriate level of environmental effort. Based on this key assumption, staff negotiated the scope and fee as shown in Attachment 1 with Parsons as an amendment to its existing project and construction management contract for the I-15 ELP, which was originally approved in April 2015 following a competitive procurement. Parsons worked with staff earlier this year to obtain approval of two other significant environmental revalidations associated with the I-15 ELP. Therefore, it has the needed staff, very recent experience, and project-specific knowledge making it the best option to perform this work. Staff and Parsons estimated an 18-month period to complete this preliminary engineering and environmental documentation work phase. Staff and Caltrans negotiated an agreement for the PA/ED work phase. This agreement reflects typical provisions between the Commission and Caltrans for this work phase including the respective responsibilities by both agencies for project costs, permits, quality control, schedule, standards, consultant selection, and other provisions. 90 Agenda Item 8 Recommendations Staff recommends approval of the overall procurement strategy for the 15/91 ELC, which essentially consists of a series of contract amendments to existing contracts for the 91 Project and I-15 ELP. Staff will return for Commission approval for other individual contract amendments and budget adjustments through the course of the 15/91 ELC’s development as necessary to meet project delivery goals. Additional actions which are currently needed are approval of Agreement No. 15-31-001-02 with Parsons to complete preliminary engineering and environmental documentation for the 15/91 ELC, in the amount of $1,882,000, plus a contingency of $188,200, for a total amount not to exceed $2,070,200. Staff also recommends authorization for the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the amendment. Staff also recommends immediate approval of Agreement No. 18-31-055-00 with Caltrans for PA/ED work. Staff also recommends authorization for the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the final agreement.

Environmental Services – TASK 800  DRAFT102 Consultant shall provide environmental services to satisfy environmental documentation requirements under CEQA and NEPA for the 15/91 ELC project. The environmental document is defined as a CEQA/NEPA revalidation. The type of environmental document will be determined by the Commission before the start of environmental activities. In support of the environmental document for the project, the Consultant shall prepare technical memor anda and/or standalone technical studies to update previous environmental findings and/or analyze potential impacts of the express lane connectors to various environmental resources. Based on our review of the preliminary layout of the 15/91 ELC Project, there are no effects or impacts to the following environmental resources: land use, farmlands, Section 4(f)/6(f), cultural/historical and energy. A technical study or technical memoranda will not be prepared for these resources. E.1 Environmental Updates and Technical Memoranda It is anticipated that some minor change in environmental effects or environmental setting are anticipated since the approval of the SR-91 CIP Final EIR/EIS, (2012) for the following environmental resources and would be documented either in the environmental document or technical memoranda: growth, right of way, aerially deposit lead updated tolerance evaluation, utilities/emergency services, visual/aesthetics, hydrology, geology, paleontology, hazardous waste/materials, and cumulative impacts. It is assumed that most of the previously prepared analyses and reports for these environmental resources could be used to document potential impacts associated with the 15/91 ELC project (no additional surveys or research of empirical data would not be conducted). Impact findings are anticipated to be similar to the previous findings in the Final EIR/EIS and would require minimal effort. A short discussion in the environmental document or a technical memo will be prepared addressing minimal changes to the project and justification on the validity of the previous environmental analyses and findings stated in the Final EIR/EIS. Consultant shall provide a discussion in the environmental document or prepare technical memoranda for the following environmental resources:    Growth  Community Impacts  Utilities/Emergency Service  Visual/Aesthetics  Hydrology/Floodplain  Water Quality and Stormwater Runoff  Geology  Hazardous Waste/ Materials DRAFT103  Noise and Vibration  Cumulative Impacts  Deliverables: Discussion in the Revalidation document for the above mentioned environmental resources. Due to changes in environmental setting and/or potential impacts associated with the additional project feature to Phase 1 of the SR-91 CIP, there are potential changes to environmental effects resulting from the 15/91 ELC Project. Environmental resources that require additional analyses and/or supplemental documentation include the following resources: biology and air quality. The following standalone environmental technical studies will be prepared for the project:     E.2 Supplemental Natural Environment Study   Consultant shall prepare a Supplemental Natural Environmental Study (SNES) to include an updated IPAC and CNDBB species list. The SNES will include an update to vegetation impacts, habitat impacts and jurisdictional resources resulting from the 15/91 ELC project. Up to three reviews are anticipated. Deliverables: Supplemental Natural Environmental Study E.3 Air Quality Consultant shall prepare a Supplemental Air Quality Study to update emissions analysis resulting from the 15/91 ELC project. This report will provide an emissions estimate to the additional project feature at opening year conditions. It is assumed that horizon year 2035 conditions analysis will not be required. Up to three reviews are anticipated. Deliverables: Supplemental Air Quality Technical Study E.4 Environmental Documentation Depending on the results of the technical studies, it is anticipated that the environmental documentation would be Revalidation, if the results of the technical studies indicate that there are no significant or substantial impacts beyond those identified in the SR-91 CIP Final EIR/EIS, dated August 2012. If additional substantial impacts are identified, a Supplemental EIS would be required, which would require an amendment to this scope. The following environmental documentation activities will be completed for this scope:   E.5 Revalidation DRAFT104 Consultant shall prepare a CEQA/NEPA Revalidation/Re-evaluation Form summarizing the results of the supplemental technical studies. For environmental resources resulting in no change since the previous environmental approval and/or minor change in environmental setting and/or effects, a short discussion justifying the validity of the Final EIR/EIS will be prepared in the Revalidation Form. Up to three reviews are anticipated for the approval of the Revalidation Form. Deliverables: CEQA/NEPA Revalidation E.6 Record of Decision (ROD) Consultant shall prepare a Record of Decision (ROD) discussing potential effects of the ELC project. Since the revalidation will not be circulated for public review, response to comments will not be included in the ROD.

THANK YOU AGENDA ITEM 9 Agenda Item 9 RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: October 11, 2017 TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: Budget and Implementation Committee Lorelle Moe-Luna, Senior Management Analyst Grace Alvarez, Planning and Programming Manager THROUGH: Anne Mayer, Executive Director SUBJECT: California Transportation Commission’s Active Transportation Program Cycle 3 Augmentation Funding Recommendations BUDGET AND IMPLEMENTATION COMMITTEE AND STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Commission to: 1) Approve the two highest scoring active transportation projects for inclusion in the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Active Transportation Program (ATP) Cycle 3 Augmentation Regional Program, consisting of the Riverside County Department of Public Health’s Cabazon/Banning Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Program and the Coachella Valley Association of Governments’ (CVAG) CV Link project, for funding totaling approximately $4,799,222; 2) Approve the Riverside County ATP contingency list, consisting of the next highest scoring projects, for inclusion in the MPO ATP Augmentation Regional Program; 3) Submit the recommended projects to the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) for inclusion in the MPO ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation Regional Program and subsequent submittal to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) for final approval in December 2017; 4) Submit the MPO ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation regional projects to SCAG for inclusion in the Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) programming; and 5) Direct staff to coordinate with the MPO ATP Regional Program project sponsors regarding timely funding allocations, obligations, and project delivery. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: ATP Cycle 3 ATP is a highly competitive statewide program that funds bicycle and pedestrian facilities and programs to enhance or encourage walking and biking. Cycle 3 commenced in June 2016, and approximately $264 million was available in funding for Fiscal Year 2019/20 and FY 2020/21. A total of 456 applications were submitted statewide requesting nearly $977 million. The CTC awards 50 percent of the funds at the statewide competitive level, 10 percent to small urban and rural regions, and 40 percent at the large MPO level. The ATP process allows applicants two 129 Agenda Item 9 rounds of opportunity to be awarded – statewide and MPO level. As part of the sequential project selection, projects are first evaluated statewide and those that are not ranked high enough for statewide funding are automatically provided a second opportunity for funding through the large MPO share. ATP guidelines require that the large MPOs work with county transportation commissions to develop its regional program recommendations. SCAG, as one of the largest MPOs receives about half of the MPO funds in the state and distributes 95 percent to the counties based on population for implementation projects and sets aside 5 percent for planning and non-infrastructure projects. Riverside County was allotted approximately $6.6 million for implementation projects and in January 2017, the Commission approved the award of these funds to the next highest scoring projects. A total of 26 projects were submitted from local agencies in Riverside County, requesting about $66 million. In total, 7 projects were awarded (three from statewide and four from MPO), totaling $18 million in ATP Cycle 3 funds. See Attachment 1 for list of approved Cycle 3 statewide and MPO projects. ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation Funds In April 2017, with the passage of SB 1, an additional $200 million for the program became available for FY 2017/18 and FY 2018/19 and a call for projects for ATP Augmentation funds was released on June 30, 2017, allowing only Cycle 3 applicants to apply. A total of $8 million, which is 4 percent of the available funding was allocated to the California Conservation Corps and the remaining funds were distributed as follows: $96 million (48 percent) for the statewide competitive component, $19.2 million (9.6 percent) for small urban and rural regions, and $76.8 million (38.4 percent) for the large MPO component. Priority of funds were given to projects, which could deliver one or more phases in FY 2017/18 and FY 2018/19, and as programming capacity became available in FY 2019/20 and FY 2020/21 additional projects were considered for funding. Applications were due August 1, 2017, and a total of 20 applications were submitted from local agencies in this county. CTC staff’s statewide competitive component recommendations were released August 31, 2017 and included 11 projects (8 of which are new) from Riverside County, as shown in the table below.

Approval for these projects is anticipated at the October 18-19, 2017 CTC meeting. See Attachment 2 for full listing of CTC Recommendations. The SCAG MPO ATP Augmentation share is about $40 million (of the $76.8 million large MPO funds) and includes $38 million for implementation projects and $2 million for planning and non-infrastructure activities. Riverside County’s share for implementation projects is approximately $4.8 million. MPO ATP guidelines allow each county transportation commission to add up to 10 points to the CTC score for projects based on local criteria. In May 2014, the Commission approved adding 10 points to projects consistent with adopted local and regional plans, consistent with state and MPO ATP guidelines. All projects submitted within the county, at a minimum, are consistent with the SCAG adopted 2016 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy. The CTC’s ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation program guidelines added a provision for the MPO component to allow supplanting of funds to projects that received less ATP funding than requested in Cycle 3 due to the fact that the SB 1 funding was made soon after the CTC’s recommendations for Cycle 3 were approved. Staff recommends that the approximately $4.8 million allotted to Riverside County for implementation projects be awarded to the next highest scoring projects, listed below, that requested advancements in programming or received partial funding in Cycle 3. 131 Agenda Item 9 MPO ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation Recommendations Agency Project Title Original ATP Request – Cycle 3 ($000) Cycle 3 Award Amount ($000) Recommended Augmentation Funding ($000) Total Award – Cycle 3/ Augmentation ($000) CTC/RCTC Score County Public Health Cabazon/ Banning SRTS Program $ 500 $ 500 $ 500 $ 500 87.0/97.0 CVAG CV Link $ 24,307 $ 5,584 $ 4,299 $ 9,883 85.5/95.5 Total $ 4,799 Staff is continuing to work with SCAG on the programming capacity of funds available under Cycle 3 and the Cycle 3 Augmentation. It is possible that after a comprehensive review of all of the county transportation commissions’ recommendations for Cycle 3 Augmentation that further adjustments may be required; however, the total allocation of $4.8 million will be distributed among the highest scoring projects. Staff also recommends the next highest scoring projects (as shown in Attachment 1) be submitted to SCAG for a contingency list. In the event that a programmed project is delivered for less or fails, a contingency list will be provided to the CTC and will be in effect only until the adoption of the next statewide program. The $2 million set aside for planning and non-infrastructure projects will be selected from SCAG’s Sustainability Planning Grants (SPG) program. Projects that will be considered for funding are: 1) those that submitted through SCAG’s 2016 SPG program that were unfunded; and 2) new projects submitted in SCAG’s 2017 supplemental call for projects, which opened July 6, 2017 with applications due August 31, 2017. To qualify as a planning project, applicants must also meet ATP requirements such as qualification as a disadvantaged community (DAC). The DAC requirement does not apply to non-infrastructure programs. As of the writing of this staff report, SCAG recommendations for this program have not been made available. Next Steps Upon approval of the above recommendations, staff will submit the projects to SCAG for inclusion in the MPO ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation Regional Program, which will be approved by the SCAG Regional Council on October 5, 2017. SCAG will then submit the MPO Augmentation projects to the CTC for final approval at the CTC’s December 5-6, 2017 meeting. Staff will work closely with project sponsors in preparing allocation funding requests and requests for obligating federal funds. Projects awarded under the MPO component must obtain concurrence from the Commission on each allocation request for funding as required by the CTC. Projects will also be required to be included in the FTIP. As a condition of the project allocation for the statewide and MPO ATP programs, the CTC requires project sponsors to submit to Caltrans semi-annual reports on the activities and progress 132 Agenda Item 9 made toward implementation of the project and a final delivery report upon project completion. The purpose of the reports is to ensure that the project is implemented in a timely manner according to the scope and budget identified in the project application. Staff will continue to participate in CTC/Caltrans working groups to further develop and improve the ATP guidelines and process, and participate in future evaluations of ATP project applications. The next ATP Call for Projects is expected to commence in early Spring 2018. Financial Impact ATP funds are administered through the CTC, Caltrans, and the Federal Highway Administration. The Commission is not a recipient of these MPO ATP funds; therefore, there is no fiscal impact to the Commission’s budget.

AGENDA ITEM 10 Agenda Item 10 RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: October 11, 2017 TO: Riverside County Transportation Commission FROM: Budget and Implementation Committee Martha Masters, Management Analyst Grace Alvarez, Planning and Programming Manager THROUGH: Shirley Medina, Planning and Programming Director SUBJECT: Revision to the Fiscal Year 2017/18 SB 821 Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities Program Funding Recommendations BUDGET AND IMPLEMENTATION COMMITTEE AND STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Commission to: 1) Approve the Revised Fiscal Year 2017/18 SB 821 Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities program recommended projects as shown in Attachment 1 in the amount of $3,343,187 to include an additional three projects in the cities of Lake Elsinore, La Quinta, and Temecula; 2) Direct staff to prepare and execute memorandums of understanding (MOU) with the three additional project sponsors to outline the project schedule and local funding commitments; and 3) Authorize the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreements on behalf of the Commission. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On July 12, 2017, the Commission approved 21 projects totaling $3,599,364 for SB 821 funding as indicated in Attachment 1. Due to the passage of SB 1, which provides an increase of $100 million annually to the Active Transportation Program (ATP), the California Transportation Commission (CTC) decided to augment the ATP Cycle 3 program. On June 30, 2017, the CTC released the ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation call for projects allowing agencies that applied under the recently concluded ATP Cycle 3 process the opportunity to apply for ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation funds made available from SB 1. Applications were due to the CTC on August 1, 2017. Staff was aware that projects submitted under the Commission’s SB 821 call for projects were also being submitted for the CTC’s ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation call for projects. In most cases, these ATP project applications represented larger projects, and the SB 821 project applications represented smaller portions of the ATP applications. Project sponsors strategically submitted larger projects for the ATP program since the ATP funding had a significant amount of funding 139 Agenda Item 10 available compared to the SB 821 funding. As a result, at the July 12, 2017 Commission meeting staff recommended to return to the Commission with a revision to the FY 2017/18 SB 821 funding recommendations, if SB 821 funding was freed up from projects approved through the ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation. Revised Allocations On August 31, 2017, the CTC notified agencies of the 2017 ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation recommendations that will be presented to the CTC at its October 18-19, 2017 meeting for final adoption. Two projects that were included in the SB 821 funding recommendations are being recommended for ATP Cycle 3 Augmentation funding: • County of Riverside – Clark Street Sidewalk project • City of Riverside – Carmine Street Sidewalk Improvements project Upon CTC’s approval of ATP Augmentation funds for the above two projects in October, staff recommends removing these projects from the FY 2017/18 SB 821 allocations. This action would free up a total of $724,000 SB 821 funds that would be programmed to the following three next highest scored projects: Agency Project Title Allocation Lake Elsinore Palomar Multi-Use Trail $ 245,523 La Quinta Jefferson Street Sidewalk Gap Closure 90,000 Temecula Citywide Buffered Bike-Lane Striping 132,300 Total $ 467,823 The remaining FY 2017/18 SB 821 amount of $256,177 is not sufficient to fully fund the construction of the next two projects that were tied at a score of 33.67; therefore, based on prior practice it is recommended the remaining funds be reserved for the FY 2019/20 SB 821 Call for Projects. All project scores are included in Attachment 1.

Per the Commission’s SB 821 adopted policies, jurisdictions receiving an allocation have 24 months to complete approved projects and submit claim forms for reimbursement upon project completion. MOUs will be required to outline the project schedules, funding plan, and local agency match commitment. Staff will monitor the progress of the projects to ensure timely implementation of delivery and expenditures as the intent of the SB 821 program is to deliver and expend FY 2017/18 and FY 2018/19 funds within the timeframe of this cycle. 141 Agenda Item 10 Future Opportunities It is anticipated that the CTC will have an ATP Cycle 4 Call for Projects sometime in March of next year. Staff encourages the agencies to start considering projects to apply for ATP funds and begin the process of crafting the applications as soon as possible.
