ANAHEIM TOURISM IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT (ATID) TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE FUNDING REQUEST Capital Funding Encumberment of $2.50 Million from ATID Balance $2.00 Million for 5 years As the developments in The Anaheim Resort® continue to grow, with the associated demand for Anaheim Resort Transportation (ART) services, Anaheim Transportation Network (ATN) respectfully requests funding consideration to facilitate long-term funding for capital needs of the ATN. Inclusive with its capital improvement program, ATN is looking to strengthen its safety and security promise to the community. With over 9.5 million guests using ART system to connect with destinations in-and-around The Anaheim Resort®, safe and secure public access to the transit system is paramount. Our guests’ access to the transportation services is not limited just to the fleet, which is observed by field personnel and on-board operators, but to the secure operating facility as well. Vigilance to safeguard all transportation operations needs to be extended to maintenance, cleaning, fueling and operational functions. With ATN ongoing funding structured to cover only its operating expenses, ATN has no available funding for an ongoing Capital Improvement and/or Safety and Security Programs. This funding request would enable ATN to build and relocate to a permanent location, designed and equipped with safety and security features to meet the needs of our destination, and have necessary local match to continue to seek grant opportunities to electrify ART operations. This long-term funding approach is requested to provide certainty for the ATN and the City of Anaheim in their planning efforts for multi-modal transportation improvements and services for The Anaheim Resort as well as allow for eligible recipients to plan and prepare for arrival of new guests and construction of new developments. Consistent with ATID’s governing documents and goals, ATN respectfully requests consideration for the following: 1. ART Operating/Maintenance Facility $2.50 Million One-time Encumberment $1.50 Million for 5 years Since its inception, ATN has successfully managed it finances, working to ensure it provides safe, dependable, and convenient public transit services. ATN acquired its current facility in 2014 to maintain its fleet of 82 buses. Meanwhile, ATN continues to lease maintenance and storage space from the City of Anaheim Community Development Department. The lease with the City of Anaheim in on a month-to- month basis, with a 90-day termination notice. For years, the City of Anaheim pursued development at these locations and has a development project moving through the entitlement process that will 1) End parking/storage ability for the fleet of 82 ART buses; 2) Eliminate electric bus charging opportunities; 3) For ATN to consider sale of its current location. With the approval of this funding request, the ATN will be able to procure financing for the new and permanent operations and maintenance facility. The cost of new construction, without land acquisition, is estimated at $12-15 million. This request is to encumber $2.5 million of the $13.9 million in the current ATID transportation fund with remaining funds made available over a five-year period to complete construction of the facility. 2. ATN Capital Improvement Fund $500,000 for 5 years On annual basis, ATN Board of Directors approves its operating and capital improvement budget. ATN requests to allow the Board of Directors to appropriate this funding on annual basis to meet the needs of the ATN. Eligible funding categories would be: 1. ART Fleet Improvements 2. Matching Funds for Grant Opportunities 3. Facility Improvements 4. Mobility on Demand/Mobility as a Service Programs 5.
