South Florida Regional Transportation Authority Comprehensive Annual Financial Report SOUTH FLORIDA REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT A Component Unit of the State of Florida Department of Transportation FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2018 Prepared by Finance Department Accounting Division JACK L. STEPHENS C. MIKEL OGLESBY Executive Director Deputy Executive Director RICHARD D. CHESS, MBA MARGARET DALLEY-JOHNS, CPA Director of Finance Accounting Manager This page is intentionally left blank MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Fiscal Year 2018 brought with it challenges and accomplishments. In May, the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (SFRTA) officially dedicated its new Operations Center and adjacent Pompano Beach Station, increased ridership, and achieved record on-time-performance. The move to the new headquarters has enabled SFRTA to consolidate virtually all of its functions, including operations, dispatching, administration and outreach into one facility. This has significantly enhanced communications and has enabled the SFRTA to more effectively and efficiently serve its passengers. With the South Florida economic climate continuing to show improvement, we are continuing to see ridership in excess of 4 million passengers annually. More than 1 million passengers availed themselves of our free connecting shuttle service during the past fiscal year. SFRTA continues to operate 50 trains each weekday and 30 trains on Saturday, Sunday and holidays. In fact, at a time when transit systems across the country have shown a loss of riders, SFRTA has continued to maintain its ridership and, in fact, has seen a slight growth in passengers. An exciting development on the horizon is a partnership with All Aboard Florida (AAF) which will provide a one-seat ride into downtown Miami. AAF is helping to defray the cost of Tri-Rail’s new MiamiCentral by generously donating land for the station, as well as amortizing construction costs to the SFRTA’s benefit. Service into Miami is expected to begin sometime within calendar year 2019. The new Pompano Beach Station will be the first LEED-certified station on the corridor; energy efficient and environmentally sensitive. It provides 110% of the necessary power to operate the station through solar panels. It has electric car charging stations in the 400 plus space four story garage and is landscaped with native vegetation. There are projected savings of 85% over the cost of operating our existing stations due to the self-generated solar power source. Under a new contract with Herzog Transit Services Inc., which went into effect in July 2017, the Agency has seen record on-time performance. In July 2018, SFRTA saw the highest on-time-performance in its almost 30 year history. 96.6 percent of all trains operated on schedule. Herzog not only operates the trains, but also maintains the stations and the rolling stock. SFRTA will continue to work with CSXT, Florida Department of Transportation, and Amtrak to unify our efforts in the implementation of Positive Train Control (PTC). PTC will assist in train control, preventing train-to-train collisions, over-speed derailments, incursion into established work zones and movement through a main line switch in the improper position. SFRTA will seek an extension to full implementation of PTC by December 31, 2020 due to the fact that we believe we will reach mandated milestones in the installation by December 31, 2018. On a personal note, after 15 years with the SFRTA/Tri-Rail, I am retiring at the end of the year. These 15 years have been extremely fulfilling and I treasure the time I have spent here and the people I have met here. With its great wisdom, the Governing Board has selected Commissioner Steven L. Abrams as my successor. Commissioner Abrams has been a respected figure in South Florida for decades and has served as Mayor of Boca Raton, Palm Beach County Commissioner representing South Palm Beach County. Most important, he has served on the SFRTA Governing Board for almost a decade and as its Chair on two different occasions. He has an intimate working knowledge of the SFRTA and all of the issues facing the Agency in the future. He is also an avid Tri-Rail rider and has come to be known as the “commuting commissioner.” He will be a tremendous asset to the organization and I wish him nothing but success as he becomes the leader of the SFRTA. I would personally like to thank SFRTA’s Governing Board for its direction and support during my tenure. I also extend my thanks and appreciation to SFRTA’s management and staff for their continued dedication and professionalism in achieving the Authority’s Goals and Objectives. Sincerely, Jack L.

In accordance with state law, staff is proud to present the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (SFRTA) Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. This report signifies the SFRTA commitment to provide financial information that is accurate, concise, reliable, and of the utmost quality to its Governing Board, the citizens of the tri-county area, and all other interested parties. The SFRTA developed this report with an emphasis on clarity, presentation, and completeness, in all material respects, and to present fairly the financial position and results of the SFRTA operations. All disclosures necessary to gain a full understanding of the SFRTA financial activities have been included. Assumption of Responsibility: The SFRTA management produced this report in accordance with guidelines recommended by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA). The responsibilities for the accuracy, fairness, and completeness of the financial statements, note disclosures, supplementary schedules, and statistical data presented rest with the management of the SFRTA. It is the representation of management that the enclosed data presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial operations of the SFRTA. Internal Control: The present accounting system includes the necessary internal controls to ensure reasonable, but not absolute assurance, regarding the safekeeping of assets against loss from unauthorized use or disposition. It also ensures that adequate accounting data are combined to allow for the preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of controls should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and that the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.Evaluations of internal control occur on a periodic basis. We believe that the SFRTA current internal accounting controls adequately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance of proper recording of financial transactions. As a recipient of federal, state, and county financial assistance, the SFRTA is also responsible for ensuring that an adequate internal control structure is in place to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to those programs. The SFRTA is required to undergo an 1 annual single audit in conformity with the provisions of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, subpart F, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) and the requirements of Florida's Single Audit Act as outlined in Chapter 10.550, Rules of Auditor General. Information relating to findings, recommendations, and all other aspects concerning this single audit are included in a separate document.

    The Florida Rail System Plan: Investment Element prepared for the Florida Department of Transportation prepared by Cambridge Systematics, Inc. With support from Planning Innovations, Inc Quandel Consultants December 2010 Florida Department of Transportation CHARLIE CRIST " STEPHANIE C. KOPELOUSOS 605 Suwannee Street GOVERNOR Tallahassee, FL 32399-0450 SECRETARY December 14, 2010 Citizens of Florida: I am pleased to submit to you the Investment Element of the 2010 Florida Rail System Plan. Unlike in past years, where the Florida Rail System Plan was more descriptive of the separate freight and passenger rail systems, this plan is more visionary, strategic, and policy-driven. The plan was guided by a broad base of stakeholders, including the Rail Stakeholder Advisory Committee, members of the public and private sectors, modes of transportation, economic development and environmental interests, and citizen representatives. The Committee and others worked throughout the summer and fall of 2009 to develop an inventory of Florida's rail system needs and recommend priority investments that support the strategic goals, objectives, and policies of the Florida Rail System Plan. The Florida Rail System Plan is comprised of a Policy Element and this document, the Investment Element. The Policy Element provides a broad policy framework for the investment of limited state resources in Florida's rail system. The Investment Element builds upon the framework of the Policy Element by identifying the needs of Florida's rail system, establishing priorities for the investment of state funds, and setting forth future action steps necessary to implement the plan. Florida in the year 2030 will be shaped by the actions, decisions, and policy choices made today.

  • 3.0 Passenger Rail Services and Initiatives in Florida
    Investment Element of the 2010 Florida Rail System Plan 3.0 Passenger Rail Services and Initiatives in Florida 3.1 Overview Although Florida’s total population shrunk by about 60,000 residents in 2009 – a first in over three decades according to state demographers – and overall population growth rates have declined three points to approximately 2 percent annually due in large part to the nationwide recession and declining housing market, the State is expected to continue to attract retirees and residents looking for warmer weather and low costs of living. State demographers at the University of Florida predict that once the recession ends, Florida can expect to grow as much as 200,000 people per year – fewer than the 300,000 a year the State averaged during the past three decades, but enough to lead most other states in net growth. By 2035, more than 25 million people will call Florida home, representing a 56 percent increase between 2000 and 2035.45 In absolute terms, Florida will add over 9 million people to its population between this time period. Furthermore, although much of Florida’s growth will be concentrated in urbanized areas, growth will occur across Florida’s regions and urbanized area boundaries will expand across county lines. Florida’s density per square mile was 344 according to the 2009 Census and was ranked the eighth densest state in the nation. Population growth, and the associated transportation demand, will place additional pressure on all aspects of the State’s transportation system. A growing population not only adds automobiles to roadways, but the increase in economic activity to support this population also will generate additional demands for freight movement.

  • RAIL SYSTEM PLAN December 2018 Table of Contents
    2015 FLORIDA RAIL SYSTEM PLAN December 2018 Table of Contents FLORIDA RAIL SYSTEM PLAN - 2018 UPDATE The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Freight and Multimodal Operations Office (FMO) present this 2018 update of the 2015 Florida Rail System Plan. As new challenges have had a great impact on the needs and future projects identified in the 2015 Rail System Plan, FDOT prepared this update. CHALLENGES • New State Rail Plan Guidance was created in 2013 to set a standard format and elaborate on required elements of the plan to include a 5-year update cycle, and a requirement for states seeking capital grants under Sections 301, 302, and 501. See https://www.fra.dot.gov/Page/P0511. Thereafter, FDOT prepared a 2015 Rail System Plan that was completed in December 2015. The Plan was not published at that time, as major industry changes were expected and no public outreach had yet been conducted. • Major industry changes occurred that impacted most of the rail mileage in Florida: o CSX hired Hunter Harrison in spring of 2017, and radically changed the company by imposing precision-scheduled railroading instead of a hub-and-spoke system. This approach has been continued by CSX leadership through 2018. o Grupo México Transportes (GMXT), the leading rail freight transportation company in Mexico, successfully completed the acquisition of Florida East Coast Railway in 2017. o Brightline began service in 2018 between West Palm Beach, Ft. Lauderdale, and Miami later in the year, and with plans to connect to Orlando and potentially to Tampa in the future. APPROACH • The FAST Act (Title 49, Section 22702) passage in December 2015 changed the 5-year update cycle to a 4-year update cycle.
