Call to Order, Pledge of Allegiance, Roll Call John Pedrozo, Chairperson of the San Joaquin Joint Powers Authority (SJJPA), called the meeting to order at 10:00 am and had Member Wheeler lead the Pledge of Allegiance. Board Members Present: Blalock, Johnson, Wheeler, Ishida, Vice-Chair Cohn, Vice- Chair Perea, and Chair Pedrozo Alternates Present: Curry On behalf of Madera County, Member Wheeler (Supervisor for District 5 of Madera County) welcomed SJJPA to Madera County and the City of Madera. Member Wheeler called Madera County the “biggest little county in the State of California”. He said Madera County has about 152,000 residents. Member Wheeler said that public safety is probably the number one issue in Madera County and that they have one of the lowest crime rates in the San Joaquin Valley. He noted several new buildings that have been built or are under construction in Madera. He also said that agriculture was the number one industry for Madera County at $1.7 billion and that tourism is probably number two. Member Wheeler thanked the Board for having this meeting in Madera. 2. Public Comment Ron Jones, Vice President with the Train Riders Association for California (TRAC) updated the Board on the activities of TRAC as they relate to the SJJPA. He raised the issue that there is a possibility that the Merced – Fresno HSR project might not go forward. He said that legally things had not gone well for the HSR project. He said the TRAC wanted the SJJPA to be aware of the possibility of transferring the HSR federal funds to the San Joaquin Corridor. He said that instead of moving forward with current plans for HSR in the San Joaquin Valley, TRAC would like to see the San Joaquin rail service upgraded to 110 mph (which the federal government recognizes as HSR). He further described TRAC’s proposal for an alternative plan for HSR and said that they hoped that the SJJPA could be a partner with them in their efforts. Nate Knodt from Stockton, said he was thrilled that the SJJPA exists. He said there has been great success with other JPAs like the Capitol Corridor and Caltrain. He said that 1 Page 3 of 156 Caltrans has done a good job with the San Joaquins, but he is looking forward to more flexibility with the schedules. He is looking forward to mid-corridor starts, more flexible arrival and departure times. He said he is looking forward to more vocal and grass- roots advertising. He hopes that the SJJPA can take another look at fare structure, including round-trip discounts. He said that he works for Stockton RTD, although he is not representing them at this meeting. He said he hoped that there would be a great effort to coordinate San Joaquin service with local transit. He disagreed with the previous speaker and said that he firmly believed that HSR should be in the Valley. Mike Barnbaum, from “Here We Ride” let the Board know of the activities of Here We Ride and their efforts to promote improved transit connectivity in the Sacramento and Lodi area. He thanked Chair Pedrozo and others for their participation in the March 19 Senate Select Committee on Passenger Rail hearing at the State Capitol that was Chaired by Senator Jackson. He said they hoped that Assembly would also create a similar Select Committee. He said that those in Sacramento would be happy to host the next SJJPA board meeting, but since Sacramento has already had a meeting, perhaps the next board meeting should be held in Bakersfield on June 27 (since there had been some letters of interest in a public meeting in Bakersfield). 3. Consent Calendar 3.1 Approve Minutes from January 24, 2014 Board Meeting ACTION 3.2 Approve Next SJJPA Board Meeting Location and Time ACTION Chair Pedrozo entertained a motion for the approval of the minutes from the January 24, 2014 Board Meeting. M/S/C (Blalock/Perea) to approve Consent Calendar Item 3.1. Passed and Adopted by the San Joaquin Joint Powers Authority on March 28, 2014, by the following vote to wit: Ayes: 8 Blalock, Curry, Johnson, Wheeler, Ishida, Vice-Chair Cohn, Vice-Chair Perea, Chair Pedrozo Noes: 0 Abstain: 0 Absent: 2 Tatzin, Chiesa Ms. Mortensen requested that the vote for Item 3.2 be delayed until later in the meeting. Chair Pedrozo agree and moved on to agenda item 4. 4. Edits to the SJJPA Bylaws (Election of Officers) and JEPA (SJJPA Board) Mr. Leavitt stated that at the January 24, 2014 SJJPA Board Meeting, staff was directed by the Board to include an action item on the next board meeting agenda to change the 2 Page 4 of 156 term for the Chairperson and Vice Chairpersons from one year to two-years. He said that this action requires changes to the SJJPA Bylaws and JEPA. Mr. Leavitt said that Section 2.1 (Election of Officers) of the SJJPA Bylaws defines the term of office for the Chairperson and Vice-Chairpersons as “one-year”. Based upon the Board request for a “two-year” term, Section 2.1 of the SJJPA Bylaws needed to be amended. Mr. Leavitt read through the proposed language changes for Section 2.1 provided in the Board Members briefing book and that were available on the SJJPA webpage. Mr. Leavitt highlighted a change from the book item. He read this additional change on the first sentence of Section 2.1 of the Bylaws “nomination and election of a Chairperson and at least one Vice Chairperson shall be held at the first meeting of the board and thereafter at the biennial first meeting”. Mr. Leavitt said that since this Agenda Item is an administrative matter more appropriate for Board action related to the SJJPA Bylaws, Section 5.8 (SJJPA Board) of the SJJPA JEPA should be amended by simply deleting the two sentences that read: “The terms of office shall be one year. No member may serve more than two consecutive years as chairperson of the Board.” Mr. Leavitt asked that the board approve the resolution before them which includes the additional change that he presented. Chair Pedrozo asked for a motion of support. M/S/C (Wheeler/Blalock) to approve changes to the SJJPA Bylaws and JEPA. Passed and Adopted by the San Joaquin Joint Powers Authority on March 28, 2014, by the following vote to wit: Ayes: 8 Blalock, Curry, Johnson, Wheeler, Ishida, Vice-Chair Cohn, Vice-Chair Perea, Chair Pedrozo Noes: 0 Abstain: 0 Absent: 2 Tatzin, Chiesa 5. Presentation from Madera County Chair Pedrozo noted that this had already been done. 3 Page 5 of 156 6. SJJPA Draft Business Plan Mr. Leavitt stated that they were pleased to report that the Draft SJJPA Business Plan chapters had all been completed and submitted on schedule to the SJJPA by the March 2014 Board Meeting.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Phase II Amtrak paint schemes or "Phases" (referred to by Amtrak), are a series of livery applied to the outside of their rolling stock in the United States. The livery phases appeared as different designs, with a majority using a red, white, and blue (the colors of the American flag) format, except for promotional trains, state partnership routes, and the Acela "splotches" phase. The first Amtrak Phases started to emerge around 1972, shortly after Amtrak's formation.
