COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM DATE: April 17 , 2018 TO: The Honorable City Council FROM: Bryan Cook, City Manager By : Michael D. Forbes , Community Development Director SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION NO. 18-5323 TO APPROVE THE ROAD REPAIR AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT (SB 1) PROJECT LIST FOR FISCAL YEAR 2018-19 RECOMMENDATION : The City Council is requested to : 1. Approve Resolution No . 18 -5323 (Attachment "A ") to approve the resurfacing of various streets citywide as Temple City's designated project for Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) funds for Fiscal Year (FY) 2018-19 pursuant to Senate Bill 1, the Road Repair and Accountab ility Act of 2017 (SB 1 ); 2 . Direct the City Manager to include a new Capital Improvement Project (CI P) in the FY 2018-19 City Budget with a total allocation of $709,420 including $604 ,277 in RMRA funds and $105 ,1 43 from the General Fund ; and 3. Authorize the City Manager to submit the required documents and information to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) for the City to receive RMRA funds . BACKGROUND: 1 . On April 28 , 2017, the Governor signed SB 1. SB 1 crea ted the RMRA, the purpose of which is to provide funding to address basic road maintenance , rehabilitation , and safety needs on both state highways and local streets . To generate this funding , SB 1 mandates adjustments and increases in fuel taxes , diesel fuel taxes , and vehicle registration fees , and provides for adjustments in future years to adjust for in flation . SB 1 includes funding for maintenance and rehabilitation of local streets from the RMRA through the Local Streets and Roads Program . 2 . On March 21, 2018 , the CTC adopted the 2018 Annual Reporting Guidelines for the Local Streets and Roads Program . To be eligible to receive RMRA funds in FY 2018- City Council April17, 2018 Page 2 of 3 19 , the Guidelines require that cities submit to the CTC a list of projects that will utilize RMRA funds no later than May 1, 2018 . ANALYSIS: On November 1, 2017 , the State Controller began depositing portions of the new revenue from fuel taxes and vehicle registration fees into the RMRA as prescribed by SB 1. A percentage of this funding is apportioned by statutory formula to cities and counties for road maintenance , rehabilitation , and safety projects on local streets . While the State does not provide revenue estimates , projections from the League of California Cities show that Temple City will receive an estimated $604 ,277 in FY 2018-19 and annually thereafter. These funds are in addition to the fuel tax and vehicle license fee revenues that the City already receives from the Highway Users Tax Account (HUTA). SB 1 emphasizes the importance of accountability and transparency in how RMRA funds are spent. As such , cities are required to provide annual reports to the CTC regarding the projects on which the funds are spent. Prior to receiving RMRA funds each year, cities must submit to the CTC a City Council resolution approving a list of all projects proposed to be funded with RMRA funds . The resolution must i nclude a description and location of each project, the project schedule , and the estimated useful life of the improvements . Cities must also submit annual documentation regarding all completed or in -progress projects using RMRA funds . SB1 also includes a maintenance of effort requirement. To be eligible for RMRA funds , cities must demonstrate a susta ined maintenance of effort by spending General Fund money on street maintenance and rehabilitation . The maintenance of effort funding amount is determined by the State Controller and based on General Fund expenditures for street maintenance in FYs 2009-10 , 2010-11 , and 2011 -12 . Temple City will be required to allocate $105 ,143 annually for maintenance of effort. It is important to note that while other transportation funds including Measure R, Measure M, and HUTA may be used for street maintenance and rehabilitation , such funds may not be used for the maintenance of effort requirement; only the General Fund may be used . The State Controller will audit cities to ensure compliance with this requirement. On December 19 , 2017 , the City Counci l approved a contract with Nichols Consulting Engineers (NCE) to update Temple City 's Pavement Management Plan (PMP ). The PMP update is nearing completion , and the streets listed in the RMRA project list in the attached resolution for resurfacing are based upon the preliminary data from the PMP update . The list may be adjusted based on the final PMP update data and policy direction from the Facilities , Public Works , and Infrastructure Standing Committee and the City Council. It is necessary to make a decision now based on preliminary data , given the May 1 deadline to submit a project list for RMRA funds . The City Council has the discretion to revise the list later if necessary.
