8 Agenda Item 6.A April 23, 2019
DATE: April 15, 2019 TO: SolanoExpress Intercity Transit Consortium FROM: Daryl Halls, Executive Director RE: STA’s Draft Overall Work Plan (OWP) for Fiscal Years (FY’s) FY 2019-20 and 2020-21
Background: Each year, the Solano Transportation Authority (STA) Board and staff identify and update the STA’s priority plans, projects and programs. These tasks provide the foundation for the STA’s Overall Work Plan for the forthcoming two fiscal years. In July 2002, the STA Board modified the adoption of its list of priority projects to coincide with the adoption of its two-year budget. This marked the first time the STA had adopted a two-year Overall Work Plan. The most recently adopted STA Overall Work Plan (OWP) for Fiscal Years (FYs) 2018-19 and FY 2019-20 included a list of 45 priority projects, plans and programs.
Over the past 19 years, the STA's OWP has continued to evolve based on changing Board priorities, requests from the eight member agencies that comprise the STA’s Joint Powers Authority (JPA), and to address priorities, policies and requirements emanating from the federal, state, and the region. The focus of the STA during the timeframe of 2000 to 2005 was to complete the first Solano County Comprehensive Transportation Plan, initiate various corridor studies, and identify a handful of priority projects to fund and advance into construction. From 2005 to the present, the STA has taken a more proactive role in advancing projects through a variety of project development activities and has expanded its transit coordination role in partnership with Solano's five local transit operators, the Capitol Corridors and the San Francisco Bay Ferry. For the past decade (2009 to 2019), STA has initiated and is now managing several mobility programs designed to improve mobility and access for seniors, people with disabilities, low income residents traveling to work, shopping, medical appointments, and school age children and their parents traveling to and from school.
Planning FY 2018-19 STA’s planning activities during FY 2018-19 included the initiation of the final elements of the Comprehensive Transportation Plan, the Equity and Land Use Chapters and the Executive Summary. The 2019 update of the Congestion Management Program and a Countywide Active Transportation Plan were initiated. The Countywide Traffic Model was updated and is scheduled to be brought to the STA Board in May 2019. The Solano County Water Transit Plan has been initiated and is underdevelopment with a project completion date of June 2019 and the Solano Safe Routes to Transit Plan was amended to add additional projects.
9 Projects FY 2018-19 In 2009, the STA’s eight member agencies approved an update and modification to the STA’s Joint Powers Agreement that authorized the STA to perform all aspects of project development and delivery, including right of way functions for specified priority projects. This past fiscal year, the STA's project development activities included the following: Initiating the design phase for two new bus stops at SR 37/Fairgrounds to be ready for construction in support of phase 2 (the Red Line) of the SolanoExpress Service plan and awarding the construction contract, starting the design phase for the upgrade to the SR 37/Fairgrounds Interchange and obtained a commitment of $15 million of Regional Measure 3 funds for the construction phase. The STA also entered into a second memorandum of understanding with three other county transportation agencies, Caltrans and MTC for the initial funding and delivery of segments of the SR 37 Corridor, including the environmental document for segment B (Mare Island Interchange to SR37/121 and the SR 37/Fairgrounds Interchange in segment C. The STA and Caltrans partnered to complete the design phase of Phase 2A of the I-80/I-680/SR 12 Interchange through a Construction Management/General Contract project delivery approach with STA agreeing to serve as the lead for the right of way phase for the project.
The Projects Department also obtained and began implementation of a $10 million State TIRCP grant for Solano Express Service Integration and Electrification and entered into a master agreement with the California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA). The department also completed the fifth annual report for the Regional Transportation Impact Fee (RTIF) program which passed the $6 million milestone in funds generated for the program. The Abandon Vehicles Abatement (AVA) Program reimbursed for 8,022 vehicles abated during the first six months of the fiscal year.
Programs FY 2017-18 The STA’s First and Last Mile Program partnership with LYFT expanded to provide connections to the Capitol Corridors two rail stations and to connect to the new service areas for Solano Express Blue Line, Green Express and Yellow Line. Additional connections are being planned in partnership with Soltrans for the City of Benicia and Mare Island in Vallejo. The Safe Routes to School (SR2S) Program is working with 69 schools with over 15,000 participating students located in Solano County. 49 schools with 8,793 students participated in International Walk to School Day, 19 “Rock the Block” shows and 7 Bike Mobile Repair Events were held across Solano County and a fourth round of enforcement grants were provided to Benicia and Suisun City.
A series of eight Older Adults and Persons with Disabilities Mobility Summits were held, one countywide and one in each of the seven cities. Over 300 participants and another 2,200 individuals responded to surveys. The number one mobility issue identified in all seven cities was medical trips.
STA worked with Soltrans and FAST to successfully implement phase 1 of the new SolanoExpress Service implementation with the introduction of the new Blue, Green Express and Yellow Lines. This included a marketing plan and a consolidated fare structure for all SolanoExpress Routes. STA worked with Vacaville City Coach, FAST and Soltrans, and Solano Community College (SCC) to successfully implement a SCC student ride free with the SCC identification with the recent passage of the SCC student fee for transit. An update to the Ridership Survey for Solano Express was completed and the STA Board authorized staff to initiate the third Coordinated Short Range Transit Plan
10 (SRTP) in FY 2019-20. The Intercity Paratransit Taxi Card Program transitioned from paper scrip to the taxicard and non-ambulatory service was implemented in the cities of Benicia, Dixon, Rio Vista and Vallejo. The service is scheduled to expand to the cities of Fairfield, Suisun City and Vacaville later this year.
The Solano Mobility Program included the following: The Solano Mobility Call Center assisted over 8,611 individuals, and supported 107 vanpools and started 3 new vanpools. A total of 533 individuals were assessed for ADA eligibility through nine months of FY 2018-19 with 73 qualifying for the new auto renewal program, and 33 individuals participating in the STA’s travel training program during the first six months of this fiscal year. 13 employers have enrolled in the STA’s updated employer program with 52 employees participating in the Solano Mobility incentive programs available for the new Ride Amigos incentives program offered by STA. Participation in the Travel Training program significantly increased in FY 2018-19 with 15 travel training events and 69 participants. The Board also authorized Solano Mobility to implement A Vehicle Share Program for medical trips and STA is partnering with local hospitals to implement additional programs to assist in providing enhanced mobility to medical trips as part of the STA’s efforts through the Consolidated Transportation Service Agency (CTSA).
Federal and State Four years ago, the Republicans led US Congress and President Obama authorized a five year Transportation Authorization Bill called Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act or the "FAST Act". In 2019, President Trump and the new Democratic led Congress have begun discussions on a new transportation infrastructure bill. In 2017, the State Legislature and Governor Jerry Brown agreed on a $5.2 billion per year transportation bill (Senate Bill 1) that has restored funding for local streets and roads, transit, the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP), maintenance of the state highway system and other transportation programs. Several new program categories were established that include grant funding for freight projects and congested corridors. The STA, working with Caltrans District IV and with the support of MTC, was approved by the California Transportation Commission (CTC) for $53.2 million SB 1 funded freight grant for construction of Phase 2A of the I-80/I-608/SR 12 Interchange. In 2018, California and Solano County voters passed Proposition 69 to protect the revenues from SB 1 for transportation. In November of 2018, California and Solano County voters subsequently rejected Proposition 6 that would have repealed SB 1. With SB 1 transportation funds now protected by the voters, STA has supported Caltrans submittal of the Solano I-80 Express Lanes for competitive Federal INFRA grant funding and for future rounds of SB 1 competitive grant funds.
Bay Area Region In June of 2018, Bay Area voters passed Regional Measure 3 which includes a number of specific projects and regional programs to be funded by future increases to the bridge tolls on the seven state owned bridges located in the Bay Area. This specifically includes funding for I-80/I-680/SR 12 Interchange ($150 million), Westbound Truck Scales ($105 million), and SR 37 ($100 million), plus additional operating for expanded ferry service between Vallejo and San Francisco, and Solano Express Bus Service, competitive transit capital funding potential for the Vallejo Station Phase B and other transit facilities.
11 Discussion: Attached for review is the STA's Draft OWP for FY’s 2019-20 and 2020-21. The plans, projects and programs contained in the current OWP have been updated to reflect milestones achieved in FY 2018-19 and contain new additions approved by the STA Board during FY 2018-19.
PROJECT DELIVERY/COMPLETE PROJECTS/NEAR TERM CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS Based on the Budget for FY 2018-19 and FY 2019-20, the following four OWP projects were fully funded and are now completed, currently under construction or slated to be in construction in FY 2019-20 or FY 2020-21:
- Jepson Parkway – Vacaville (Segment 1 ) – Completed FY 2018-19 - Fairfield (Segment 2) – Under construction with completion in FY 2019-20 or FY 2020-21 - I-80/I-680/SR 12 Interchange – Phase 2A – Design with construction to begin 2020 - SR 12/SR 113 Roundabout – Construction to Begin by May 2019

Two projects were submitted for competitive state SB 1 funds.
- I-80 Express Lanes (HOT Lanes) – Conversion of HOV Lanes to Express Lanes from Red Top Road to Air Base Parkway and the New Express Lanes from Air Base Parkway to I-505 (Ready for Construction) – STA/Caltrans/MTC – INFRA Grant/SB 1/RM 3 - SR 37/Fairgrounds 360 Access Project –– Fairgrounds Drive (Design phase and Construction/Per MOU) – STA/County/Vallejo/Caltrans – RM 3/STIP/Local Match - I-80/I-680/SR 12 Interchange – Package 3 (design near completion) – STA- RM 3 - I-80 Westbound Truck Scales – STA (environmentally cleared)-RM 3 - SR 12/Church (Funding plan developed for design phase) – STA/Rio Vista – SHOPP/STIP - SR 37 Segment B (Includes Mare Island Interchange - Corridor Study Completed- PID Document Completed/Environmental Document to be initiated per MOU) – Caltrans/MTC/STA/SCTA/NVTA – RM 3 - Jepson Parkway – remaining segments City of Vacaville – Vacaville – STIP/RTIF/TIF
Finally, there are several projects that are included in the OWP, but the initial or next phase of the project is not currently funded in the current two year budget. - I-80 Express Lanes Project – Carquinez Bridge to SR 37 - Jepson Parkway – remaining segments located in City of Fairfield - North Connector – West Segment
TRANSIT CENTERS In recent years, STA has partnered with local transit operators and cities to improve and upgrade regional transit centers. There are several priority transit centers that the STA has successfully pursued and obtained or programmed federal, state or regional funds for. Several of these projects are fully funded and are either in construction or moving through the project development stage into construction.
12 STA has initiated the design and issued the construction contracts for two new bus stops at the SR 37/Fairgrounds Interchange in FY 2018-19 in preparation for phase 2 of the SolanoExpress Service Plan
Several of these projects are initial phases of larger planned transit projects that are not fully funded. The larger, long range transit centers are as follows: - Vallejo Station – Phase B - Fairfield/Vacaville Rail Station – Phase 2 (Station Building) - Fairfield Transit Center - Dixon Park and Ride Lot - Transit Center at Curtola/Lemon Street – Future Phases
STA PLANNING ACTIVITIES The following planning studies are currently underway, funded in the currently proposed budget, and scheduled to be undertaken or completed in FY 2019-20: - Coordinated Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP) - Update of Priority Development Area Plans/Coordination with Housing Production Efforts - Development of Priority Production Areas (Jobs) - Completion of Solano Seniors and People with Disabilities Mobility Plan - Solano Pothole Report
The following plans are scheduled to be considered as part of the two year work plan. - Update of Safe Routes to Schools Plan - Emergency Responders and Disaster Preparedness Study - Coordination with SMART Rail Feasibility Study - Bus Rapid Transit Plan for I-80/I-680 Corridors
STA PROGRAMS Some of the major program milestones this past fiscal year included the following: - Completed First Full Year of College Fee program for SCC students - The Solano Mobility Management Call Center handled 1,813 calls through the 3rd quarter of FY 2018-19; - Implemented new Solano Mobility Website that received 15,716 views from FY – 2018-19 with an average of 1,746 views/per month. - Completion of Fifth Year of In-Person ADA Eligibility Program with over 1,227 individuals assessed in FY 2017-18. - Implementation of New Ride Amigos Incentive Platform - Transportation Info Depot at Historic Suisun Amtrak Station with 4,082 customers served in FY 2017-18. - Developed 11 Successful HSIP Safety Grants for 6 cities totaling $8.8 million - Completion of Fifth Annual RTIF Report, RTIF Revenues Passed $6 million milestone - 8th Year of STA’s Local Preference Policy Implementation with $2.2 million total local dollars invested in local businesses through June 30, 2018 - STA completed fourth year of managing Solano Intercity Taxi Program which provided 10,035 passenger trips in FY 2017-18.
13 There are three primary tasks for STA working with the transit operators in FY 2019-20. First will be implementing phase two of the SolanoExpress Service Plan (Red Line) and reviewing the performance measures and ridership in preparation for future service adjustments in FY 2020-21. Second will be completing the expansion of the the Intercity Taxi Scrip Program for Non-Ambulatory Riders through use of a debit card countywide. Finally, STA is preparing to work with all five transit operators to update the Coordinated Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP).
Staff is recommending the Consortium review the STA’s Draft OWP and forward comments to the STA TAC and Board.

68 Agenda Item 6.B April 23, 2019
DATE: April 8, 2019 TO: SolanoExpress Intercity Transit Consortium FROM: Robert Guerrero, STA Planning Director RE: STA Plan Bay Area 2050 Workshop
Background: The Solano Transportation Authority is responsible for coordinating with the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and Caltrans to develop the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) for the Bay Area every four years. The RTP is a long range transportation plan that forecasts future transportation needs. As required by California Senate Bill 375, the RTP also includes a component that promotes sustainable communities and provides policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Another important aspect of the RTP is that it is the required regional planning document for programming federal funds.
The last RTP, called the Plan Bay Area 2040, was completed in 2017. In early 2018, MTC begun to lay the ground work for the next RTP update by starting the Horizon’s initiative process. This process has multiple goals, but the primary goal is to get public input early in the RTP planning process. Their approach included an extensive process with the following components: 1. Guiding Principles 2. Future Scenarios 3. Identification of Transformative Projects 4. Perspective Papers that identify specific challenges associated with that topic (e.g. jobs growth, climate adaptation, housing production, autonomous vehicles, etc.)
Further detail on the Horizon’s Initiative can be viewed on the following weblink: https://mtc.ca.gov/our-work/plans-projects/horizon
Over the next several months, MTC will be transitioning from their Horizon’s Initiative to the RTP development called Plan Bay Area 2050. This will include forecasting transportation revenue for each county and identifying transportation projects beyond the transformative projects submitted through the Horizon’s Initiative.
Discussion: STA staff is inviting the Consortium to participate in the Solano RTP Workshop scheduled for May 8th with the STA Board members. STA’s Advisory and Technical Committees will have up to 5 minutes to talk about their committee’s priorities and what they recommend to add to STA’s Plan Bay Area 2050 submittal. The STA Board will consider the requests at the June 12th meeting, at which time they will be requested to approve the Plan Bay Area 2050 project submittals to MTC.
69 Previously, Solano County was forecasted to have $1.6 billion in State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) Funds, Surface Transportation Program (STP), Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ) Improvement Program and other potential transportation revenue sources. The new estimate of $2.4 billion in available transportation funds for Solano County was provided by MTC recently for the next RTP. The new estimate includes an additional 10 years from the previous RTP, from 2040 to 2050 and is subject to change.
There is also a list of transformative projects that are currently under consideration by MTC (Attachment A). As part of an earlier Bay Area wide call for projects, STA submitted the following three transformative projects: 1) SR 37 Corridor Resiliency Project (submitted in coordination with MTC) 2) Solano I-80 Express Lane Implementation 3) Hwy 12 (including Rio Vista Bridge Replacement)
The complete list of submitted transformative projects is attached. MTC has not yet made clear as to how the transformative projects would be included in the RTP, specifically regarding whether or not these projects will need to be included as part of the traditional RTP county share. In addition, Attachment B includes the current project list for Solano County from the 2040 RTP as a starting point for project consideration.
The deadline for project submittals to MTC is June 30th.
Fiscal Impact: None at this time.
Recommendation: 1. Designate Committee spokesperson; and 2. Select Transit Priorities for Plan Bay Area 2050.

82 Agenda Item 8.A April 23, 2019
DATE: April 12, 2019 TO: SolanoExpress Intercity Transit Consortium FROM: Mary Pryor, STA Consultant RE: Fiscal Year 2019-20 Intercity Funding Agreement and FY 2017-18 Reconciliation
Background: The Intercity Transit Funding Agreement provides for the annual funding of intercity transit routes, and addresses the process for reconciling planned to actual revenues and expenditures and for sharing costs for the upcoming budget year. The Intercity Transit Funding Working Group (ITFWG) reviews the annual funding of intercity transit routes included in the Intercity Transit Funding Agreement. Members of the ITFWG include all funding participants: the Dixon Readi- Ride, Fairfield and Suisun Transit (FAST), and Solano County Transit (SolTrans), Vacaville City Coach, the County of Solano, and STA.
Discussion: Intercity Funding Process The annual funding process includes a reconciliation of planned (budgeted) intercity revenues and expenditures to actual revenues and expenditures. To allow for the completion of audits, the reconciliation for a given fiscal year takes place one year after the completion of the fiscal year and at the same time as the planned (budgeted) amounts are calculated for the upcoming fiscal year. In this cycle, FY 2017-18 audited amounts are reconciled to the planned FY 2017-18 amounts, and the planned amounts for FY 2019-20 will be estimated.
This year, STA is recommending a change in the methodology used to calculate the FY 2019-20 costs and subsequent subsidy requirements. Rather than using the cost allocation models to determine the costs by route, the previously agreed upon performance measure of hourly costs (with escalation) will be used. The details are discussed below, in the “FY 2019-20 Forecast” section of this staff report. The methodology for the reconciliation of FY 2017-18 budget to actuals will be unchanged from prior years.
FY 2017-18 Reconciliation The FY 2017-18 reconciliation compares the budgeted and audited actual revenue and expenditure amounts for the fiscal year for each intercity route. The difference results in credits or debits to the participating cities and the county for their FY 2019-20 intercity funding shares in the TDA Matrix. FAST and SolTrans Cost Allocation Models (CAMs) showing audited actual costs and revenues for FY 2017-18 form the basis for the reconciliation. The summary sheet from each operator’s FY 2017-18 CAM with actual costs and revenues are shown in Attachments A and B. Additional detail from the CAMs is available on request.
The calculations for reconciling the FY 2017-18 planned versus actual are shown in Attachment C, Tabs 3 and 4. As shown in Attachment C, Tab 3, 80% of the required subsidy is calculated
83 based on the residence of each route’s ridership. The most recent survey data prior to the implementation of the Blue Line and GX Line that includes residence information is from STA’s 2014 Solano Express Intercity Ridership Study dated June 25, 2014. The same 2014 data has been used in the calculations for the FY 2017-18 budget and actuals.
Attachments C Tab 3 and Tab 4 show that the actual required subsidies from the local jurisdictions are approximately $2,000 less than had been planned. However, there were differences between the FY 2017-18 budget and the actuals, as follows:
• FAST’s costs were approximately $144,000 greater than budgeted1, and fare revenues were approximately $91,000 less than budgeted. Other revenues were approximately $30,000 greater, resulting in a net increase in required subsidies of $204,000. • SolTrans’ costs were approximately $206,000 less than budgeted, and fares were approximately $166,000 less than budgeted. However, SolTrans applied $166,000 in other revenues including Solano College fees and parking revenue, resulting in a net decrease in required subsidies of $206,000. • Altogether, these changes result in a total subsidy reduction of approximately $2,000.
Using the subsidy allocation formula, several jurisdictions will receive a credit toward the subsidy required for FY 2019-20, while others will provide additional subsidies for FY 2017-18. Solano County’s contribution does not change. Attachment C, Tab 4 provides the changes by route. The results of the FY 2017-18 reconciliation calculations are as follows:
• Benicia: Credit of $40,698 (SolTrans) • Dixon: Increase of $4,005 • Fairfield: Increase of $81,116 (FAST) • Suisun City: Increase of $28,249 (FAST) • Vacaville: Increase of $41,936 • Vallejo: Credit of $116,535 (SolTrans)
FY 2019-20 Forecast Cost Trends STA continues to review cost trends for the SolanoExpress service. Attachment D provides the annual budgeted and actual cost per hour for the FAST and SolTrans elements of the service, as well as the total service. FAST generally has greater hourly operating costs than SolTrans. The following chart depicts the hourly rate trends for FAST and SolTrans local and SolanoExpress services, as calculated by the CAMs.
As shown in the chart, hourly costs for both local and express service were generally steady or declining from FY 2012-13 to FY 2015-16. From FY 2015-16 to FY 2017-18, the actual hourly costs for SolanoExpress as calculated by the CAMs increased 14% for FAST and 15% for SolTrans. This cost growth raises concerns that the service may become unsustainable.
1 FAST costs related to the Park & Ride lots and train station were removed from the CAM, as SolanoExpress does not provide service to the facilities.
84
The rates for FY 2018-19 are based on actuals for the first six months of the fiscal year. FAST projects a reduction in their SolanoExpress cost per revenue hour for FY 2018-19, while SolTrans shows a small increase. Both agencies’ SolanoExpress rates for FY 2018-19 are within fifty cents of each other at approximately $145 per hour.
Since FY 2012-13, both agencies calculate a cost per hour for local service that is lower than for SolanoExpress service. SolTrans’ express service hourly rate has been from -4% to 33% more than the local rate, while FAST’s variance has ranged from 46% to 71% more per revenue hour for the SolanoExpress service.
Performance Standard In October 2016, the STA Board approved performance benchmarks for SolanoExpress service including a cost rate of $135 per revenue vehicle hour. This rate was developed, discussed, and agreed to by the Consortium. Since 2017, the Consortium has discussed capping operating costs based on the performance standard as part of the Intercity Funding Agreement presentations.
Using an escalation rate of 2% per the October 2016 staff report, the projected rate for FY 2019- 20 would be $141 per revenue vehicle hour, as shown in the table below.
Year FY17-18 FY18-19 FY19-20 Escalation Rate 2.0% 2.0% Cost per Hour $ 135 $ 138 $ 141
As shown in Attachment G, the actual SolanoExpress cost of $150 per revenue hour exceeded the performance standard rate in FY 2017-18 by $15 per hour. In FY 2018-19, projections indicate that the cost per hour will exceed the performance standard again, although by a smaller margin than in FY 2017-18. Based on the second quarter unaudited actuals from FAST and SolTrans, the estimated cost of $145 per revenue hour is $7 greater than the performance standard.
85 Hourly Operating Costs As noted previously, the FY 2019-20 forecast includes a change in methodology. Costs per revenue hour are based on the escalated performance standard of $141 per hour, rather than the CAMs. The cost for each route is calculated as the revenue hours multiplied by the cost per revenue hour.
Planned Service Levels In Attachment C, Tab 5, the revenue hours, costs, and revenues are projected for each route. The new route designations are based on the following: • Yellow Line = former Route 78 • Blue Line = former Routes 20, 30, and 40 • Red Line = former Routes 80, 82, and 85 • Red Line Expansion = marginal increase in hour for half hour service on Route 85 • Green Express = former Route 90
The FY 2019-20 forecast assumes that service levels will remain unchanged from the FY 2018- 19 second quarter actuals provided by FAST and SolTrans, with the exception of the Red Line. The FY 2018-19 actuals include the SolanoExpress service and fare changes that were implemented in July 2018. The FY 2019-20 forecast includes an additional 4,400 revenue service hours to provide Red Line half hour service to the northern area of the county. STA anticipates subsidizing the cost of the expansion service with State Transit Assistance funds (STAF). The inclusion of the Red Line expansion in the forecast does not impact the subsidies owed, as the marginal cost of the new service is expected to be fully funded with fares and provided by STAF. Coordination with SolTrans is underway regarding the implementation of this service change.
FY 2019-20 Forecast Cost Sharing Calculations The financial information for each route is used in calculating funding shares for each of the participating jurisdictions. The gross cost of each route is offset by fares and route-specific funding to arrive at the net cost of the route to be shared. The intercity funding formula is based on 20% of the costs shared according to population and 80% of the costs shared according to ridership by residency. Population estimates are updated annually using the Department of Finance population estimates and are shown in Attachment C, Tab 1. Ridership by residency is based on on-board surveys conducted by an independent ridership estimating firm. The survey data used in the FY 2019-20 calculation, shown in Attachment C, Tab 2, was gathered in October and November 2018, following the implementation of the Blue, Green Express, and Yellow Lines.
The calculations for cost sharing for FY 2019-20 are shown in Attachment C, Tab 5. The final amounts due by jurisdiction, by route, for both reconciled FY 2017-18 and forecast FY 2019-20 are shown in Attachment C, Tab 6. A summary comparison of FY 2018-19 vs. FY 2019-20 total amounts due by jurisdiction is provided in Attachment C, Tab 7.
Using prior year data from the reconciliation process, Attachment E provides a summary of the total costs, revenues and subsidies by jurisdiction from FY 2009-10 through FY 2019-20. Attachment F provides a summary of the revenue hours by route from FY 2013-14 through FY 2019-20, and includes the changes in budgeted revenue hours by route from FY 2018-19 to FY 2019-20.
86 FY 2019-20 Amounts Owed The total subsidy contributions in FY 2019-20 are approximately $432,000 less than in FY 2018- 19.2 This decrease is due to a number of factors, but is primarily attributable to the use of the performance standard’s hourly operating cost to $141 per revenue hour. FY 2019-20 fare revenues are projected to fall between the estimates for FY 2017-18 and FY 2018-19. Additional revenues are included in the FY 2019-20 projections, including $324,000 from SolTrans’ Solano College fees and Curtola Park & Ride (FAST has opted not to contribute its SCC fee revenue to SolanoExpress), and STA’s use of approximately $458,000 in STAF funds for the Red Line expansion.
TDA Funding Matrix The intercity funding shares for FY 2019-20 are reflected in the annual TDA matrix which shows the amounts to be claimed by jurisdiction/transit agency, shown in Attachment C, Tab 0.
The FY 2018-19 TDA Matrix includes a section related to funding swaps and capital funding arrangements. Each row indicates the purpose of the transaction and the claimant. The amounts listed in each column are the amounts to be drawn from each jurisdiction’s TDA fund by the designated claimant.
When each operator’s TDA claims are prepared, the individual operator amounts claimed for local transit operating and capital will be added to the TDA matrix. The matrix will then be considered for adoption by the Paratransit Coordinating Council, the Solano Express Consortium, the Technical Advisory Committee, and by the STA Board. Once the TDA matrix is approved by the STA Board, it is submitted to Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) to provide MTC guidance when reviewing individual TDA claims.
FY 2018-19 Mid-Year Review During last year’s reconciliation and budgeting process, STA staff recommended that the service and revenue data for the new routes be reviewed in the middle of FY 2018-19 to assess whether there are substantial differences from the budgeted projections. In April 2018, STA programmed $500,000 in FY 2018-19 STAF funds to minimize or mitigate any potential financial impact for both FAST and SolTrans under the new fare structure and service change for FY 2018-19 and FY 2019-20.
In March, both FAST and SolTrans provided cost and revenue data through the second quarter of FY 2018-19. Extrapolating this preliminary data for the full year (by multiplying the six-month data by two) indicated the following: • Total operating costs are close to the FY 18-19 projections. FAST’s costs are trending higher than projected, and SolTrans’ are trending lower. • Fare revenues are trending lower than projected, by approximately $85,000. FAST’s fares are lower than estimated, and SolTrans’ are higher. • SolTrans has included Solano College fees and Curtola Park & Ride revenues to subsidize the SolanoExpress service.
Altogether, the data from the second quarter in combination with the subsidies provided for FY 2018-19 indicate that either costs would need to be constrained in FY 2018-19 or additional
2 Rather than using the results of the cost and revenue modeling, the FY 2018-19 subsidy contributions were calculated based on a 2% inflationary increase over the FY 2017-18 gross amounts due, less the reconciliation of FY 2016-17 budget to actuals. This complicates direct comparisons of costs and revenues between FY 2018-19 and the FY 2019-20 forecast.
87 subsidies would be required to fully fund the SolanoExpress service. STA will be holding meetings with SolTrans, FAST, and City Coach to review the data and discuss solutions. Approval for the Intercity Funding Agreement by the STA Board is scheduled for June 2019.
Fiscal Impact: The STA is a recipient of TDA funds from each jurisdiction for the purpose of countywide transit planning. With the STA Board approval in June, the TDA matrix provides the guidance needed by MTC to process the TDA claim submitted by the transit operators and STA.
Recommendation: Informational.

102 Agenda Item 8.B April 23, 2019
DATE: April 14, 2019 TO: SolanoExpress Intercity Transit Consortium FROM: Daryl Halls, Executive Director Brandon Thomson, Transit Mobility Coordinator RE: Review of SolanoExpress Performance Measures – FY 2019-20 Cost per Hour
Background: In October of 2016, the STA Board adopted SolanoExpress Performance Benchmarks for the current service and planned updated SolanoExpress service. The Performance Benchmarks include 12 specific benchmarks covering the areas of service design, productivity, efficiency, and effectiveness. This staff report is to report on the specific performance benchmark of cost per hour that impacts the current SolanoExpress Service in anticipation of SolanoExpress service Phase 2 revisions that are to be implemented June 30, 2019.
Discussion: In developing the SolanoExpress Service Plan, STA needed to develop an estimate of the amount of service that could be implemented. The amount of service is based on available financial resources against the cost per unit of service. Therefore, the cost per hour of service (“cost per vehicle revenue hour”) becomes an important statistic.
The adopted benchmark of $135 per hour was set in 2016 and STA staff is reviewing this projection based on input provided by the two SolanoExpress service providers, Fairfield and Suisun Transit (FAST) and Solano County Transit (SolTrans). The adoption of the 2016 performance benchmarks included a 2% annual adjustment for inflation. Therefore, the benchmark cost per hour benchmark for FY 2019-20 is $141 per revenue vehicle hour.
The full list of benchmarks is included with this report (Attachment A). The benchmark for cost per revenue vehicle hour will impact the total number of service hours that can be provided within the framework of current operating revenues. This provides the ability to set budgets within available financial resources. Thus, using $141.00 per hour allows planning for approximately 73,000 hours of service within existing identified resources for SolanoExpress. Increases in cost per hour reduces the number of service hours available to SolanoExpress and with the passage of Regional Measure 3 (RM3), STA would like to add additional hours of service rather than simply maintaining the existing service level at a cost per hour higher than the STA Board approval performance benchmarks. This is also the intent of the RM3 operating funds.
Fiscal Impact: There is no immediate financial impact to STA. The performance benchmarks create a framework for projecting SolanoExpress service levels. The STA does program STAF population based funds to SolanoExpress capital, markeing and operating. The adjustment in cost per revenue vehicle hour will impact the total number of service hours that can be provided
103 within the framework of current operating revenues and the potential operating subsidy to be provided by each transit operator.
Recommendation: Informational.

DATE: April 12, 2019 TO: SolanoExpress Intercity Transit Consortium FROM: Brandon Thomson, Transit Mobility Coordinator RE: SolanoExpress Intercity Fiscal Year (FY) 2019-20 Mid-Year Report
Background: Prior to 2005, the funding for Solano County’s intercity routes, collectively called Solano Express, was shared among local jurisdictions through various verbal understandings and informal and year to year funding agreements. In Fiscal Year (FY) 2005-06, at the request of Vallejo Transit and Fairfield and Suisun Transit (FAST), the STA developed with the transit operators a countywide cost-sharing method that would provide funding stability for the operators of the intercity services and an equitable and predictable cost sharing formula for the funding partners. A working group was formed, the Intercity Transit Funding Working Group (ITFWG), and was comprised of representatives from STA, Solano County, and each participating city in Solano County. The first countywide Intercity Transit Funding Agreement was established for FY 2006-07. Key components of the agreement are the Intercity Cost Sharing Formula, primarily based upon two factors: ridership by residence and population. This shared funding is for the cost of these routes after farebox and other non-local revenue are taken into account. Another key element of the agreement is that these routes be regularly monitored so that all the funding partners are aware of these routes’ performances. This data helps guide future funding, service planning and marketing decisions. In the Intercity Funding Agreement, it states that transit operators shall report at least quarterly to the ITFWG the following information by intercity route: • Budget vs. actual cost for the quarter • Budget vs. actual fares for the quarter • Ridership • Service hours Discussion: Solano County Transit (SolTrans) and FAST have submitted their FY 2018-19 2nd Quarter Reports for the working group's review (Attachment A). The report shows where the SolanoExpress Intercity routes are compared to the estimated numbers in the Cost Allocation Model (CAM). Fifty percent (50%) would indicate that the estimate is meeting the actual projections. A summary of the 1st and 2nd Quarter report is presented below.
1st and 2nd SolTrans FAST Quarter Cost 50.7% 44.8% Fares 50.2% 45.4% Ridership 56.6% 53.3% Service hours 49.9% 56.6%

116 Agenda Item 8.D April 23, 2019
DATE: April 10, 2019 TO: SolanoExpress Intercity Transit Consortium FROM: Lloyd Nadal, Program Services Division Manager RE: Solano Community College (SCC) Student Transportation Fee Update
Background: During the Fall 2016 Semester, Solano Community College (SCC) students elected a measure by a simple majority to pay a transportation fee each semester for the purpose of providing reduced transit fares for students for the semesters from Spring 2017 through Fall 2019. The fee structure works as follows:
Full Time Students: taking 12+ units pay $10 per semester = $20.00 per year PT Students: taking 6.5 - 11.5 units pay $8.00 per semester = $16.00 per year PT Students: taking 3.5 - 6 units pay $4.00 per semester = $8.00 per year PT Students: taking 0.5 - 3 units pay $1.50 per semester = $3.00 per year
The Solano Community College Student Transportation Fee 2-Year Pilot Program launched in Spring 2017 offering a 50% reduced fee on usage among the individual Transit Operators. Despite the reduced fare cost, the 2017 Spring and Fall Semester had low usage amongst students. Based on these concerns, STA met with SCC and the three participating Transit Operators (FAST, SolTrans and Vacaville City Coach) to explore alternative methods to increase ridership among SCC students. In 2018, the Transit Operators agreed to provide unlimited rides at no additional cost to SCC student users who pay the transportation fee in their registration. Students would just need to show their current semester ID card (with updated sticker) upon boarding the bus. In return, and based on a separate agreement, STA and the Transit Operators would receive the calculated share of the transportation fee generated by the SCC fee. Based on initial feedback, this new student fee program has been a huge success among the SCC administration, Board of Trustees and students. With the SCC Transportation Fee set to expire at the end of the 2019 fall semester, SCC administration reached out to STA in hopes of continuing the program pending the SCC students vote to retain the SCC Student Transportation Fee.
Discussion: According to the agreement between STA and SCC, the terms are ongoing and may be extended upon written approval from SCC continuing the following year and beyond. As mentioned, the SCC Student Transportation Fee is expiring at the end of 2019 and STA Staff is currently working with the SCC Student Council to amend the agreement and continue an extension of the student fee program (i.e. students who pay the fee, ride for free). Also in meeting with SCC and the students, some recommended changes were discussed which could include the following: 1) Simplifying the fee structure to $1/per unit each semester; 2) Increasing from a 2-year to a 10-year agreement (with an option to opt-out at any time if the program is not successful).
117 Ultimately, SCC will decide on the final language which will be included on the ballot (along with other voting items) the week of May 6-10, 2019.
If successful, STA and the three transit operators will continue to receive the SCC fee revenue to provide SolanoExpress and local transit service to the three SCC campuses and to promote the student fee program to encourage more students to take transit.
Fiscal Impact: In 2018, STA received $160,105 in student transportation fee revenue from SCC which was distributed to the three Transit Operators based on an agreed upon percentage: FAST received 43%, SolTrans received 43% and Vacaville City Coach received 15%. STA’s disbursement to FAST = $53,378; SolTrans = $53,378 and Vacaville (City Coach) = $24,016.
In March 2019, STA also received SCC fee revenues of $21,676 and $65,673 for a total of $87,349 which was distributed to the Transit Operators using the same formula. SCC Administration indicated that there may be another check for SCC student fee revenue before the end of the semester and estimates approximately $100,000/per year moving forward.
Recommendation: Informational.
118 Agenda Item 8.E April 23, 2019
DATE: April 15, 2019 TO: SolanoExpress Intercity Transit Consortium FROM: Katelyn Costa, Program Coordinator RE: Employer Program Update
Background: Since 1990, Solano Mobility has worked to support the transportion needs and services of all Solano County residents, employers, older adults, and people with disabilities. The Solano Mobility Employer Program of the Solano Tranportation Authority serves to connect commuters to existing benefits by way of their company. Solano Mobility administers all commuter benefits programs directly to employees in the county. Staff connects with businesses as platforms to advertise these commuter benefits. Businesses also work with staff to implement transit and active transportation events in order to increase awareness of available transportation options in the county.
In recent years, local transit ridership has been gradually falling while regional transit ridership is on the rise. Carpool and vanpool rates have also been decreasing as more people opt to use app based on-demand rideshare. The Solano Mobility’s approach is moving to accommodate changes in commuter trends and continue to find Solano residents and employees the right ride for them.
Starting in FY 2018-19, Solano Mobility has reorganized its implementation strategy to expand collaboration, efficiency, accessibility, and ease into commuting, especially via non-drive alone modes. This will be accomplished by running full-package promotions to encourage transit use and to get Solano residents to take advantage of options other than solo driving. Staff is strengthening existing commuter programs to enhance simplicity and tailor offerings to company and jurisdiction need through employer consultations. The ultimate goal is to continue to expand transit and active transportation options.
Solano County has consistently led the Bay Area and Northern California mega region in carpool and vanpool use. Yet, when alternative modes are looked at in the aggregate, Solano County ranks 9th in the Bay Area for use of non-drive alone modes. A long term goal for the program is to expand the regional public transportation use average on ferry, rail and express bus, in addition to carpool and vanpool.
Discussion: Employer Program Improvements - Collaborative Focus STA’s Solano Mobility Program meets employers and employees where they are at in their commuting experiences, whether it be considering switching from single occupancy vehicles to carpooling or buses to bikes, and helping them facilitate that transition. The Program is in the process of developing an online Employer Toolkit, packed with information and resources to help employers consider, create, and carry out their own commuter 119 benefits programs with Solano Mobility partnership. By embedding these programs into the offerings of companies, Solano Mobility staff intends to expand awareness of the various alternative modes into the fabric of the business community in Solano County.
Over the past 5 months, Solano Mobility Program staff completed 51 unique engagements on the Commuterinfo.net site, contacted 52 different businesses, set-up 13 meetings and met with the following 13 employers: • Altec • Back 2 Work • Benicia Public Library • Cal Maritime • Downtown Vacaville • Kaiser (Vallejo, VV, and FF) • Mar- Bay Garden • Paradise Valley Estates • Savage and Cooke • Touro University • Travis AFB • Travis Credit Union • Wiseman (8 Solano County buildings)
Also during this time period, the Solano Mobility Program had 7 employees sign up for Emergency Ride Home (ERH) with 4 trips taken this year; 10 people receive Bucks for Bikes (B4B) incentives and 3 new Vanpools were formed.
Ride Amigos Online Platform One of the goals of the Solano Mobility Employer Program is to make the Program more efficient, accessible and easier to use for Solano County commuters, employers and employees. In July 2018, STA contracted with Ride Amigos, an online platform which will have all of the STA’s various programs (i.e. Emergency Ride Home, Bucks for Bikes, Vanpools, etc) in one place where an employer can choose from a menu of options with a simple sign-up interface. On January 7th, 2019 Ride Amigos took over the Commuter Info URL and was discoverable on the internet. The platform was announced to previous users on January 31st, 2019. From the 511 database, over 3,282 users were migrated and there are 51 current users of Ride Amigos. The Solano Mobility Program staff plan to do a larger marketing effort to grow the offerings of the platform and enhance user accessibility.
Solano Commute Challenge With the integration and transition to the new Ride Amigos platform, staff anticipated seeing a drop off migrating users from 511. There are currently 28 participants and 6 companies. Through the new Ride Amigos platform, staff is in the process of creating a more robust award system which we plan to launch in May 2019. The goal is to engage at least 100 commuters and their companies in participating in the yearly challenge.
First/Last Mile Program Solano Mobility recently launched 80% subsidized First and Last Mile Lyft rides to and from 12 Transit Centers (Amtrak stations and SolanoExpress fixed stops) across the County with the goal of connecting riders first of last mile to take public transit. The intent is also not to compete with local transit service so STA staff is working with SolTrans and the other transit agencies to ensure that the connections are integrated and not competing. Currently, 44 participants have used the discounted codes which has doubled in the last 6 months. 120 Amtrak + Lyft Pilot The first full-package promotion Solano Mobility has developed is a subsidized Amtrak and free Lyft rideshare. For $20 a person, up to 50 participants will be given a 10 ride Amtrak pass, plus 10 free First Last Mile Lyft rides to connect the train station and worksite. The goal is to use this pilot as a case study and analyze motives for increasing participation. Participants will be requested to complete surveys with the potential of renewing this pilot. By incentivizing people to try transit in the short term, there is a greater likelihood they pick up using alternative modes on their own in the long term. The first round of participants began on March 1st and currently have 13 signed up for the promotion.
Budget: The Solano Mobility Employer Program is funded using Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) program funds, Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA) funds through the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and Clean Air Funds through the Yolo Solano Air Quality Management District (YSAQMD).
Recommendation: Informational.

122 Agenda Item 8.F April 23, 2019
DATE : April 15, 2019 TO: SolanoExpress Intercity Transit Consortium FROM: Amy Antunano, Program Coordinator II RE: Solano Mobility Program Update
Background: The Solano Mobility Program of the Solano Transportation Authority (STA) began as part of a statewide network of rideshare programs funded primarily by Caltrans for the purpose of managing countywide and regional rideshare programs in Solano county and providing air quality improvements through trip reduction. The main focus of the program is to encourage the use of non-drive alone travel modes to maximize roadway efficiencies, improve air quality, present mobility options and help address climate change goals.
In February 2014, the STA expanded their services to include the Solano Mobility Call Center. This was one of four Solano Mobility priorities identified in the Solano Transportation Study for Seniors and People with Disabilities completed in 2011. In addition to providing commuters and Solano county employers with information on a variety of transit services and incentive programs, the Mobility Call Center provides seniors and people with disabilities with a range of various mobility information.
Discussion: Mobility Programs Since 2014, STA has developed several strategies to further develop the travel training program. In addition to one-on-one travel training, STA added group training and Solano Mobility public presentations to the contracts with Independent Living Resources and Connections for Life. STA is actively marketing the program with advertisement ads, brochures, Facebook posts, providing a table of information at events, and making presentations. For the Fiscal Year (FY) 2018-19 as of March 2019, there have been 75 travel training referrals, 32 completed trainings, and 5 field trips.
On September 14, 2017, STA contracted with Nelson Nygaard Consulting Associates, Inc. to complete an in-depth analysis of the effectiveness of the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) current eligibility program. In February 2018, STA staff received their evaluation of the program. The analysis reported positive aspects of the program as well as areas for improvement. Between July 1st and December 31st 2018, CARE Evaluators scheduled 804 evaluations. Out of the 804 scheduled, 533 evaluations were completed, 150 applicants cancelled and 121 were no-shows. The cancellations and no-shows present a 34% incompletion rate.
Employer Program In an effort to package all of STA’s mobility programs and services, the new Employer Program was rolled out in October 2017. The goal is to re-connect with the employers and ensure that they are aware of all of the programs and services available to them and their employees. Currently, the Solano
123
Mobility Program Coordinators have consulted with 40 employers. Additionally, 28 employers have registered for the program. The goal is to have 50 registered employers by the end of 2019.
Solano Mobility Call Center For the FY 2018-19, as of March 2019, the Solano Mobility program staff assisted 8,611 customers. This is a 70% increase from last fiscal year. The Solano Mobility staff processed 108 Regional Transit Connection (RTC) applications, and processed 142 Clipper cards. In October 2018 the Solano Mobility Call Center implemented phase II of the intercity taxi card program. Vallejo and Benicia were the first cities to adopt the program followed by Dixon and Rio Vista in January 2019. In April 2019, the program will roll out to the Fairfield-Suisun area (Attachment B).

126 Agenda Item 8.G April 23, 2019
DATE: April 15, 2019 TO: SolanoExpress Intercity Transit Consortium FROM: Ron Grassi, Director of Programs RE: Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) Plan Bay Area 2050 – Transit Needs Assessment
Background: Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) is in the process of updating the regions long range plan, Plan Bay Area 2050. The Plan Bay Area 2050 will outline how the Bay Area can meet its transportation needs through 2050 while preserving the character of its diverse communities and adapting to future population growth.
Plan Bay Area 2050 is a state-mandated, integrated long-range transportation and land use plan. As required by Senate Bill 375, all metropolitan regions in California must complete a Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) as part of a Regional Transportation Plan. In the Bay Area, MTC and ABAG are jointly responsible for developing and adopting a SCS that integrates transportation, land use and housing to meet greenhouse gas reduction targets set by the California Air Resources Board. The region adopted its previous plan, Plan Bay Area 2040 in July 2017. Plan Bay Area 2040 updated the planning assumptions and incorporate key economic, demographic, and financial trends from the original Plan Bay Area (adopted in 2013).
The Plan Bay Area 2050 document will include planning for the long term transit needs for the region. MTC is asking transit operators to project service levels, operating costs and revenues for use in establishing transit operating needs for the Plan Bay Area 2050.
Discussion: On March 28, 2019 MTC released the Plan Bay Area 2050 Transit Operating Needs Assessment workbook (Attachment A) to begin the Transit Needs Assessment process. The goal is to have the data collected from the transit operators by June 14, 2019 for analysis during the summer with the full assessment completed by September 2019.
MTC’s Transit Needs Assessment process will focus on transit operating costs, revenues, and maintenance levels. MTC will estimate the funding required to operate and maintain existing transit services over the 31 year plan period based on input received from transit operators as part of the needs assessment process. On the cost side, the analysis has two components: operating and maintenance costs, and capital replacement and rehabilitation costs. The estimate of needs includes the cost to maintain transit capital assets at their current levels as well as maintain existing service levels for public transit. On the revenue side, the analysis includes revenues that are committed to transit operating or capital costs by law or MTC or transit agency policy, and discretionary funds that are allocated to transit operating or capital needs by MTC or Congestion Management Agencies (CMAs), now called County Transportation Agencies (CTA). William Bacon from MTC has been invited to summarize the assessment at the Consortium meeting.
127 Fiscal Impact: No immediate fiscal impact at this time; however, it may impact future funding.
Recommendation: Informational.
Attachment: A. Transit Operating and Maintenance Needs Assessment for Plan Bay Area 2050
128 METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
TRANSIT OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE NEEDS ASSESSMENT FOR PLAN BAY AREA 2050
Purpose MTC is asking transit operators to project service levels, operating costs and revenues for use in establishing transit operating needs for the Plan Bay Area 2050.
General Notes 1. Attached for your use in developing the projections are the following worksheets: Service Levels, Costs-Existing, Costs-Planned, Revenues, and Summary. The first four worksheets require your input. The Summary worksheet is for information purposes only.
2. Projections are needed for the period covering FY 2019-20 through FY 2049-50. Please ensure that the projections are consistent with board approved policies, adopted budget forecasts and/or most recent Short-Range Transit Plans (SRTP).
3. Projections should be provided in year-of-expenditure dollars. The formulae provided for each year refer to inflation factors that are consistent for a given period. If you need to override the formulae, please note that you have done so.
4. Please direct questions on the spreadsheet and the transmittal to William Bacon at 415.778.6628 or [email protected]. 5. Due date: Friday, June 14, 2019. Please submit completed Needs Assessments to [email protected]. 6. Please feel free to add rows as needed, but do not delete any unnecessary rows in the worksheets.
Notes and Instructions for Service Levels Worksheet 1. The worksheet is divided into two sections: existing service levels and planned changes (additions and/or subtractions) in service levels. All data should be entered in revenue vehicle hours. In the Planned section, include only projects that are under construction or are fully funded and have a certified environmental document (EIR/EIS). 2. Planned changes are categorized first by mode and then by project. Enter a descriptive name for each project. If a project affects more than one mode, list the project under all of the affected modes and enter data as appropriate for each mode. Example: for a new light rail expansion that will add light rail service and reduce bus service, list the project under the Light Rail category with positive revenue vehicle hours and again under the Motor Bus category with negative revenue vehicle hours.
Notes and Instructions for Costs-Existing Worksheet 1. Use this worksheet to provide detailed operating and non-operating costs for existing service levels only. 2. The worksheet is divided into two sections: operating expenses by mode and system-wide non-operating expenses. In the Operating Expenses section, under each mode, provide detailed costs either by functional class, or by object class, or by other similar categories. Other costs should include, but not be limited to, those funded with excess operating revenue, contributions to reserves, etc.
3. For the Plan Bay Area 2050 financial projections MTC is tentatively assuming an annual inflation rate of 3.0% per year. Inflation assumptions for service costs may differ from the 3.0% and may be entered for each cost category, and for the period from FY 2021-30 and the period from FY 2031-50. The spreadsheet will automatically calculate the projections upon input of data for a particular start year and inflation assumptions. If you wish to use different inflation factors within a given period, please explain your assumptions in the Notes section of the spreadsheet.
Notes and Instructions for Costs-Planned Worksheet 1. Use this worksheet to provide the requested detail on operating costs by mode and by project for planned changes to existing service levels only. Please do not include any costs associated with service expansions to address crowding. Service expansions beyond those associated with committed projects should be submitted through the concurrent Plan Bay Area 2050 | Request For Regionally-Significant Projects. 2. Provide detailed costs either by functional class or by other similar categories. Other costs should include, but not be limited to, those funded with excess operating revenue, contributions to reserves, etc. 3. For the Plan Bay Area 2050 financial projections MTC is tentatively assuming an annual inflation rate of 3.0% per year. Inflation assumptions for service costs may differ from the 3.0% and may be entered for each cost category, and for the period from FY 2021-30 and the period from FY 2031-50. The spreadsheet will automatically calculate the projections upon input of data for a particular start year and inflation assumptions. If you wish to use different inflation factors within a given period, please explain your assumptions in the Notes section of the spreadsheet.
4. For agencies currently submitting documents as part of the federal Section 5309 Fixed-Guideway Capital Investment Grant program (e.g. CIG or New Starts/Small Starts/Core Capacity) costs should be consistent with most recent submittal to the Federal Transit Administration.
Notes and Instructions for Revenues Worksheet 1. The worksheet is divided into two major sections: revenues for existing service levels, and the other for planned changes associated with committed projects. 2. Include all revenue sources as reflected in your agency budget for FY 2018, FY 2019, and FY 2020.
For the period of FY 2021-2050 please reflect all locally-controlled fund sources consistent with your agency's assumptions/financial plans.
For fund sources reflected in MTC's Short Range Transit Plan Revenue Forecast (https://mtc.ca.gov/sites/default/files/SRTP_Revenue_Forecast.pdf) please use the SRTP forecast amount for FY 2020-21 (year 3) and apply a 3.0% inflation rate for the period from FY 2021-30 and FY 2031-50. This 3.0% inflation rate will be updated for each fund source as detailed revenue forecasts for Plan Bay Area 2050 are developed later in 2019.
Funding from Regional Measure 3 should not be included due to pending litigation.
3. Fare revenue should be provided by mode, and all other revenues should be provided on a system-wide basis under the Existing Service Level section and on a per project-basis under the Planned Changes section. Non-Fare Revenue includes funds from schools for the provision of service exclusively to carry students to and from school, freight charges on passenger runs, and income derived from operations associated with transit (including station and vehicle concessions from vendors, on-board and in-station advertising and automotive vehicle ferriage). Other revenue includes revenue from charter service, city or county general funds, subsidies from other sectors of operation, and other federal, state, and local non-operator sources, and other operator sources. List each item separately for Non-Fare and Other Revenue categories.
4. For the Plan Bay Area 2050 financial projections MTC is tentatively assuming an annual inflation rate of 3.0% per year. Inflation assumptions for revenues may differ from the 3.0% and may be entered for each cost category, and for the period from FY 2021-30 and the period from FY 2031-50. The spreadsheet will automatically calculate the projections upon input of data for a particular start year and inflation assumptions. If you wish to use different inflation factors within a given period, please explain your assumptions in the Notes section of the spreadsheet.
Inflation assumptions for MTC managed and programmed fund sources as reflected in the Short Range Transit Plan Revenue Forecast will be updated later in 2019 as described above in #2.

130 Agenda Item 8.H April 23, 2019
DATE: April 12, 2019 TO: SolanoExpress Intercity Transit Consortium FROM: Vincent Ma, Marketing and Legislative Program Manager RE: STA Legislative Update
Background: Each year, STA staff monitors state and federal legislation that pertains to transportation and related issues. On February 13, 2019, the STA Board approved its 2019 Legislative Platform to provide policy guidance on transportation legislation and the STA’s legislative activities during 2019.
Monthly legislative updates are provided by STA’s State and Federal lobbyists and are attached for your information (Attachments A and B). An updated Legislative Bill Matrix listing state bills of interest is available at: https://sta.ca.gov/operations/legislative-program/current/
Discussion: The State Legislature is currently on recess and will reconvene on April 22nd. Policy committees will continue to hold hearings to amend legislation and decide whether or not to pass them to the floor. The following bills that staff is monitoring have passed their first committee and are scheduled to be heard by the second committees before being passed to the Floor. These bills include:
• Senate Bill (SB) 4 Housing – Passed Senate Committee on Housing; currently in Senate Committee on Governance and Finance • SB 5 Affordable Housing and Community Development Investment Program- Passed Senate Committee on Housing; currently in Senate Committee on Appropriations • SB 50 Planning and zoning: housing development: incentives - Passed Senate Committee on Housing; currently in Senate Committee on Governance and Finance • Assembly Bill (AB) 847 Transportation finance: priorities: housing – Passed Assembly Committee on Rule; currently in Assembly Committee on Housing and Community Development • AB 1487 Land use: housing element – Passed Assembly Committee on Housing and Community Development; currently in the House Committee on Local Government
The following bills are still in their first committee:
• AB 148 Regional transportation plans: sustainable communities strategies– Currently in Assembly Committee of Transportation • AB 185 California Transportation Commission: transportation policies: joint meetings - Currently in Assembly Committee of Transportation
131 The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) has sponsored SB(SB) 152 Active Transportation Program Reform Act. This bill is authored by Senator Jim Beall (D-San Jose), and would transfer the responsibility of administering bicycle and pedestrian safety improvements from the California Transportation Commission (CTC) to Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO). The bill would also modify the funding formula to increase the regional share from 40% to 75%, increase dedicated funding for rural and small areas from 10% to 15% (these areas would still be eligible to apply for the competitive statewide share), and reduce the statewide share from 50% to 10%. On April 10, the STA Board voted to Support SB 152 as it aligns with. 2019 STA Legislative Platform VI Funding #7: “Seek/sponsor legislation in support of initiatives that increase the overall funding levels for transportation priorities in Solano County.” And Legislative Platform VI Funding #9 “Support legislation to secure adequate budget appropriations for highway, bus, rail, air quality and mobility programs in Solano County.”

RE: STATE LEGISLATIVE UPDATE – April 2019
Legislative Update Policy committees are in full swing, with hundreds of bills heard over the last few weeks. Additionally, budget committees have begun hearing department requests related to the Governor’s budget proposal. Many of the bills related to the CASA Compact will be heard in policy committees in the coming weeks. The Legislature has until the end of April to hear bills in policy committees. The Legislature will break for Spring Recess on April 11, returning April 22. We are tracking a number of bills for STA, some of which are identified under Bills of Interest below.
Governor Newsom Releases Housing Proposal As we previously discussed, the Governor’s January 10 Proposed Budget, the Budget set the stage for a discussion on tying transportation funds to housing production. The Budget states:
“Going forward, the state will strongly encourage jurisdictions to contribute to their fair share of the state’s housing supply by linking housing production to certain transportation funds and other applicable sources, if any. The Administration will convene discussions with stakeholders, including local governments, to assess the most equitable path forward in linking transportation funding and other potential local government economic development tools to make progress toward required production goals.”
On March 11, the Governor released budget trailer bill language that encapsulates the statement made in his budget. The proposal sets higher short-term housing production goals for cities & counties, and provides $750 million in support and incentives from the General Fund, to help these jurisdictions plan and zone for these higher, ambitious housing targets. The proposal would also update and modernize the process of developing and allocating to regions the state’s long-term housing goals, known as Regional Housing Needs Allocations (RHNA). The RHNA is the state-mandated process to identify the total number of housing units (by affordability level) that each jurisdiction must accommodate in its Housing Element. As part of this process, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) identifies the total housing need for each region, for an eight-year period (in the current cycle, from 2015 to 2023). Regions must then develop a methodology to distribute this need to local governments in a manner that is consistent with the development pattern included in the Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS). Once a local government has received its final RHNA, it must revise its Housing Element to show how it plans to accommodate its portion of the region's housing need.
135 Under the Governor’s proposal, HCD, in collaboration with the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research and stakeholders, must also propose an improved RHNA process and methodology that promotes and streamlines housing development.
As noted above, the proposal provides additional clarity regarding linking the new RHNA process and housing production to the provision of transportation funds, like those made available by SB 1. The proposal requires HCD, in coordination with the California State Transportation Agency and the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research, to engage stakeholders to develop and propose policies for linking transportation and other non-housing funds – including, very specifically, local streets and road funds from SB 1 – with housing goals by the end of 2022.
The proposal authorizes the state to withhold SB 1’s local streets and roads funds from any jurisdiction that does not have a compliant Housing Element and has not zoned and entitled for its updated annual housing goals, beginning July 1, 2023.
Bills of Interest SB 4 (McGuire and Beall) Planning and Zoning for Housing* This bill would a neighborhood multifamily project or eligible TOD project to submit an application for a ministerial approval process. The bill would define a “neighborhood multifamily project” to mean a project to construct a multifamily unit of up to 2 residential dwelling units in a nonurban community, as defined, or up to 4 residential dwelling units in an urban community, as defined, that meets local height, setback, and lot coverage zoning requirements as they existed on July 1, 2019. The bill would define an “eligible TOD project” as a project located in an urban community, as defined, that meets specified height requirements, is located within 1/2 mile of an existing or planned transit station parcel or entrance, and meets other floor area ratio, density, parking, and zoning requirements. The bill also requires an eligible TOD project development proponent to develop a plan that ensures transit accessibility to the residents of the development in coordination with the applicable local transit agency. The bill would require specified TOD projects to comply with specified affordability, prevailing wage, and skilled and trained workforce requirements. The bill would also define “eligible parcel” to mean a parcel located within a city or county that has unmet regional housing needs and has produced fewer housing units than jobs over a specified period; is zoned to allow residential use and qualifies as an infill site; is not located within a historic district, coastal zone, very high fire hazard severity zone, or a flood plain; the development would not require the demolition of specified types of affordable housing; the parcel is not eligible for development under existing specified transit-oriented development authorizations; and the parcel in question has been fully reassessed on or after January 1, 2021, to reflect its full cash value.
SB 5 (Beall) Local-State Sustainable Investment Incentive Program* This bill would establish the Local-State Sustainable Investment Incentive Program, which would be administered by the Sustainable Investment Incentive Committee. The bill would authorize a city, county, city and county, joint powers agency, enhanced infrastructure financing district, affordable housing authority, community revitalization and investment authority or transit village development district to apply to the Committee to participate in the program and would authorize the Committee to approve or deny applications for projects meeting specific criteria. Upon approval of a project application, the bill would require the Committee to issue an order directing the county auditor to reduce the total amount of ad valorem property tax revenue otherwise required to be contributed to the county’s ERAF from the applicant by the annual reduction amount approved. The bill would require a county auditor, if the applicant is an enhanced infrastructure financing district, affordable housing authority, transit village development district, or community revitalization investment authority, to transfer to the district or authority an amount of property tax revenue equal to the reduction amount approved by the Committee.
136 SB 50 (Wiener) Planning and Zoning: Housing Development: Equitable Communities Incentives* This bill would require a city, county, or city and county to grant upon request an equitable communities incentive when a development proponent seeks and agrees to construct a residential development, as defined, that satisfies specified criteria, including, among other things, that the residential development is either a job-rich housing project or a transit-rich housing project, as those terms are defined; the site does not contain, or has not contained, housing occupied by tenants or accommodations withdrawn from rent or lease in accordance with specified law within specified time periods; and the residential development complies with specified additional requirements under existing law. The bill would require that a residential development eligible for an equitable communities incentive receive waivers from maximum controls on density and automobile parking requirements greater than 0.5 parking spots per unit, up to 3 additional incentives or concessions under the Density Bonus Law, and specified additional waivers if the residential development is located within a 1/2-mile or 1/4-mile radius of a major transit stop, as defined. The bill would authorize a local government to modify or expand the terms of an equitable communities incentive, provided that the equitable communities incentive is consistent with these provisions.
SB 128 (Beall) Enhanced Infrastructure Financing Districts Existing law authorizes the public financing authority to issue bonds for these purposes upon approval by 55% of the voters voting on a proposal to issue the bonds. This bill would instead authorize the public financing authority to issue bonds for these purposes without submitting a proposal to the voters. The bill would require the resolution to issue bonds to contain specified information related to the issuance of the bonds. We recommend STA SUPPORT this measure.
SB 137 (Dodd) Federal Transportation Funds: State Exchange Programs Existing federal law apportions transportation funds to the states under various programs, including the Surface Transportation Program and the Highway Safety Improvement Program, subject to certain conditions on the use of those funds. Existing law provides for the allocation of certain of those funds to local entities. Existing law provides for the exchange of federal and state transportation funds between local entities and the state under certain circumstances. This bill would authorize the Department of Transportation to allow the above-described federal transportation funds that are allocated as local assistance to be exchanged for Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Program funds appropriated to the department. STA SUPPORTS this bill (February 13 Meeting).
SB 152 (Beall) Active Program Funding This bill would increase the share of active transportation (ATP) funds dedicated to regional agencies to 75 percent, distributed by population. Currently, regional agencies receive 40 percent of the funding in the ATP funds for distribution. This bill would give MTC additional resources to program for ATP projects. We recommend STA SUPPORT this measure.
AB 11 (Chiu) Community Redevelopment Law of 2019* This bill, the Community Redevelopment Law of 2019, would authorize cities and counties to create agencies that would use tax increment financing to fund affordable housing and infrastructure projects. This bill takes a similar approach to the tax increment financing structure used by the former redevelopment agencies.
AB 185 (Grayson) HCD at CTC Meetings Existing law requires the CTC and the State Air Resources Board to hold at least two joint meetings per calendar year to coordinate their implementation of transportation policies. This bill would require the Department of Housing and Community Development to participate in those joint meetings.
137 AB 252 (Daly) Caltrans NEPA Delegation Existing law, until January 1, 2020, provides that the State of California consents to the jurisdiction of the federal courts regarding the compliance, discharge, or enforcement of the responsibilities it assumed as a participant in the program. This bill would extend the operation of these provisions indefinitely. STA SUPPORTS this bill (March 13 Meeting).
AB 847 (Grayson) Transportation Funding to Incentivize Housing This bill would require HCD to review each production report submitted by a city or county in to determine if that city or county has met the applicable minimum housing production goal for the reporting period. The bill would redirect transportation revenues currently used for debt-service (e.g. vehicle weight fees) to be apportioned by the Controller to cities and counties if they have been certified by HCD to have met their very low-income housing goals or low-income housing goals.
AB 1413 (Gloria) Local Sales Tax Measures Existing law authorizes, upon approval of two-thirds of the voters, to impose a retail transaction and use tax for specified transportation purposes. This bill would authorize a local agency to impose a tax applicable to only a portion of its county if two-thirds of the voters voting on the measure within the portion of the county to which the tax would apply. We recommend STA SUPPORT this measure.
AB 1568 (McCarty) Loss of Transportation Funding for Failure to Meet Housing Production Targets This bill would require HCD to review each production report submitted by a city or county in to determine if that city or county has met the applicable minimum housing production goal for the reporting period. If a local agency fails to meet their production targets, the bill would require the Controller to withhold Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account funding for that jurisdiction and deposit those funds in a separate escrow account for each city or county that is not in compliance. The bill would require the Controller to distribute the funds to the local agency when they are found to comply. We recommend STA OPPOSE this measure.
ACA 1 (Aguiar-Curry) Local Government Financing: Affordable Housing and Public Infrastructure: Voter Approval. This constitutional amendment would lower the necessary voter threshold from a two-thirds supermajority to 55 percent to approve local general obligation bonds and special taxes for affordable housing and public infrastructure projects. STA SUPPORTS this measure (January 9 Meeting).
Bills marked with an * are being tracked by MTC as implementing elements of the CASA Compact. These bills are not sponsored by MTC. The above list does not include all bills MTC has identified as others are included in the attached matrix.

MEMORANDUM
March 25, 2019
To: Solano Transportation Authority From: Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP Re: March Report
During the month of March we monitored developments in Washington and brought them to the attention of STA staff. We also made STA staff and Soltrans aware of grant opportunities.
FY 2020 Budget
President Trump released his Administration’s budget request for fiscal year (FY) 2020 last week. The budget funds the highway and transit programs funded with contract authority at the levels authorized in the FAST Act. Of note, it includes:
- $1 billion for the Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) program, a $100 million increase from FY 2019 enacted levels;
- $1.035 billion from the general fund for Infrastructure For Rebuilding America (INFRA) grants, in addition to $1 billion from the Highway Trust Fund as authorized in the Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST Act). Congress did not appropriate additional amounts from the general fund for the INFRA program in FY 2019 or 2018;
- $46.4 billion from the Highway Trust Fund for Federal-aid highways;
- $300 million from the general fund for Federal-aid highways (a $2.95 billion decrease);
- $500 million for transit infrastructure grants (a $200 million decrease); and
- $1.5 billion for the Capital Investment Grant program (a $1 billion decrease), including $500 million for new projects.
House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Chairman Peter DeFazio (D-OR) has criticized Trump’s budget proposal as not being robust enough. Although presidential budget requests reflect Administration priorities, they are largely symbolic. Given that Democrats now control the House, the majority of Trump’s budget proposal will not make it into the eventual FY 2020 appropriations bills.
139
Solano Transportation Authority March 25, 2019 Page 2
House Appropriations Chairwoman Nita Lowey (D-NY) said that her committee will start holding markups of FY 2020 appropriations measures in April and May with an eye toward passing them by June. House Democratic leadership is also considering advancing appropriations bills in small packages rather than individually or in one large omnibus. Even if the Appropriations Committee were to advance the bills according to Lowey’s ambitious timeline, it is highly unlikely that the full House will pass them before the August recess.
Chairwoman Lowey circulated a letter to House Democrats this month stating that there is not enough bipartisan support in both chambers to revive earmarks in FY 2020 funding bills. She stated her own support for earmarks and pledged to continue discussing the possibility of reviving earmarks in the future. Prior to Chairwoman Lowey’s announcement, Transportation Chairman DeFazio told the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) that he intends to include earmarks in the forthcoming infrastructure bill. Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Ranking Member Sam Graves (R-MO) also has expressed support for reviving earmarks for transportation spending this week.
Infrastructure Outlook
Both chambers of Congress have begun fervent work on developing infrastructure legislation as evidenced by a flurry of hearings in recent weeks. The Transportation and Infrastructure Committee held hearings on February 26 to discuss “How Federal Infrastructure Policy Could Help Mitigate and Adapt to Climate Change” and on March 13 on “Aligning Federal Surface Transportation Policy to Meet 21st Century Needs.” The House Ways and Means Committee held a hearing on “Our Nation’s Crumbling Infrastructure And The Need For Immediate Action” on March 6.
The Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee held a hearing on February 26 on “Connecting America: Examining Intermodal Connections Across Our Surface Transportation Network.” The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee held a hearing on March 6 regarding the “Economic Benefits of Highway Infrastructure Investment and Accelerated Project Delivery.” We provided summaries of the hearings in separate memoranda.
Senate Environment and Public Works Committee Chairman John Barrasso (R-WY) has said that the Environment and Public Works Committee will develop an infrastructure bill that distributes federal funds by formula, balances the needs of urban and rural communities; and streamlines the project permitting process. Senator Barrasso and Ranking Member Tom Carper (D-DE) have asked Committee members to submit priorities for the bill by late February or early March. He said that Committee leadership then will solicit priorities from Senators not on the Committee.
140
Solano Transportation Authority March 25, 2019 Page 3
It is not clear whether Congress can secure funding and agreement on broad infrastructure or should focus on securing the necessary funding to reauthorize the highway and transit legislation (the FAST Act), which expires on September 30, 2020. Nevertheless, House Ways and Means Committee member Earl Blumenauer (D-OR) has said that House leadership has reserved time to consider an infrastructure bill on the chamber floor in late spring. A growing number of members of Congress are expressing support for a gas tax increase or a vehicle miles traveled fee although there will need to be bipartisan agreement and support from the White House to advance infrastructure legislation.
Regardless of whether there is broad infrastructure legislation this year, the House and Senate transportation committees will continue to hold hearings that address the reauthorization of the FAST Act.
Infrastructure Reimbursement Legislation
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has said he will introduce legislation that would require the Department of Transportation (DOT) to reimburse local partners who fund infrastructure reconstruction projects in the absence of immediate federal funding. Under the proposal, local entities that begin work on infrastructure projects that are “nationally significant” will be guaranteed reimbursement by DOT without the need for presidential approval. The purpose of the legislation is to advance the Gateway project in New York and New Jersey despite a lack of federal approval and presidential support; however, the bill could benefit other infrastructure projects that are of national significance or that compete for limited federal infrastructure dollars. Schumer has said he will attempt to add the bill to “must-pass” legislation such as an appropriations bill or surface transportation reauthorization bill.
Transit Low-No Emissions Grants
On March 18, The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) began soliciting applications for the Low or No Emission (Low-No) grant program. The FTA expects to award $85 million to 45 projects to assist with the purchase or lease of low or no emission vehicles as well as related equipment or facilities. Applications are due by May 14.
NEPA Guidance
On February 26, the Trump Administration released guidance to states intended to streamline the environmental review process under the under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for large infrastructure projects. A memo from the Office of Management and Budget and the Council on Environmental Quality directs states assuming NEPA delegation (like California) to
141
Solano Transportation Authority March 25, 2019 Page 4 complete environmental reviews and authorization decisions for major infrastructure projects within two years on average, echoing a similar requirement placed on federal agencies in a Trump Administration Executive Order from August 2017.
