Staff is recommendingMTA Board approval of 73 projects totaling $193.7 million. Of the $193.7 million, $179.7 million is recommendedfor the 2000 STIP and $14 million for AB 1012. Adoptionis required at the July 27th Board meeting in order to meet both SCAGand the CTC’s STIP Amendmentadoption deadlines. POLICY IMPLICATIONS The purpose of the 2000 Abbreviated Call for Projects is to implementthe MTA’smulti-modal programmingresponsibilities for Los Angeles Countyin response to GovernorDavis’ Transportation 2000 Initiative. The Transportation ImprovementProgram (TIP) Call for Projects process was utilized in the 2000 AbbreviatedCall in that funds were awardedon a competitive basis for regional significant projects that successfully demonstratetheir mobility benefits. The MTAreceived 243 applications requesting approximately$1.9 billion. These projects are competingfor $179.7 million in STIP funds and $71 million in AB1012 funds available over the FY 2001-2004 four-year period. AB1012 funds not programmedthrough this 2000 Abbreviated Call for Projects will be available for capital projects in future STIPs. OPTIONS The Board maysuggest funding alternative projects through this 2000 AbbreviatedCall For Projects process. Projects addedto the recommendedlist will result in other projects either movingoff the funded list or projects receiving reduced levels of funding. Unlike other MTA Call for Projects programmingprocesses, there is no local funding to augmentthe process and provide flexibility. The Board could choose not to proceed with the 2000 AbbreviatedCall For Projects. This option is not recommendedas it would not allow the MTAto take advantage of the State funding madeavailable through GovernorDavis’ Transportation 2000 Initiative and would not allow the MTAto exercise its statutory transportation programmingfunction. FINANCIAL IMPACT A total of $193.7 million is recommendedto fund the 2000 AbbreviatedCall for Projects listed in AttachmentC. This amountreflects $179.7 million for the 2000 STIP and $14 million for AB1012 through the Governor’s Transportation 2000 Initiative. The FY 2000-01 MTABudget will be amendedto include $9.6 million for MTARegionally Significant Projects. Of this amount, $1.6 million is 2000 STIP funds for project administration and Blue Line Safety Improvementsand $8 million is AB1012 funds for the transit corridor projects. 2000 Abbreviated Call for Projects 2 BACKGROUND In January of 2000, GovemorGray Davis launched his Transportation 2000 Initiative. Part of this initiative included the release of capital funds for a FY2000-04 STIP. The CTCadopted the fund estimate, for the four-year 2000 STIPon June 15, 2000. The CTC’sinitial estimate of $1.4 billion available statewide was reduced to $1.02 billion whenCaltrans requested and received additional funds for the State HighwayOperations and Protection Program(SHOPP). Of this amount, about 17%or $179.7 million is available for Los AngelesCounty. In addition to this formula share, there is $71 million available from the passage of AB1012. This measure provides for the advancementof project developmentfunds (environmental funds, plans specification and estimate work). The 2000 AbbreviatedCall For Projects is the first time projects were solicited for AB1012 funds. Funds not programmedthrough this Abbreviated Call For Projects will be available for capital projects in future STIPs. Total funding, capital and project development,for this STIPprocess, is $250.7 million. AbbreviatedCall For Proiects Process The process followed for this AbbreviatedCall For Projects has been extraordinary in that application preparation and project application review times were muchshorter than the usual process conducted by MTAstaff. The Abbreviated Call was also conducted without the benefit of the funding marks, as they were not knowneither at the time projects were solicited or when the project evaluations were completedand the preliminary staff recommendationswere released on June 12th. The funding allocation was not approvedby the CTCuntil its June 15th meeting. Anotherdifference in the AbbreviatedCall for Projects is the limited sources of money.For this Call process, there are no local Proposition C (Prop. C) dollars programmed,nor is there any federal pass-through funds, Regional Surface Transportation Program(RSTP), Congestion ManagementAir Quality (CMAQ),or Transportation EnhancementActivities (TEA). The of local dollars reduces the MTA’sability to provide moreflexible funding to smaller jurisdictions not accustomedto workingwith state or federal dollars or processes. The STIP funds allocated through this AbbreviatedCall process are legally only available for programming to capital projects, hence no Transportation DemandManagement (TDM) projects were solicited. A completed Project Study Report (PSR), or equivalent local documentationwas required for projects to be eligible for fundingconsideration. MTAstaff completed the review of the 243 project applications submitted through the 2000 Abbreviated Call For Projects and madepreliminary recommendations.These recommendations, as well as 17 appeals from project sponsors, were considered by staff and the Technical Advisory Committee(TAC) on June 21, 2000. After considerable discussion and consultation with MTA staff, the TACapproved the preliminary staff recommendationsas listed in AttachmentC. 2000 Abbreviated Call for Projects 3 At the July 20, 2000 Special Board Workshop,the Board considered the preliminary recommendationsby both MTAstaff and TAC. Attachment E is a matrix of Board motions regarding certain project funding requests for STIP2000, and additional projects studies to be considered for AB1012 funding. Staff was asked to report back to the MTABoard on these motions at their July 27, 2000 meeting. NEXTSTEPS UponBoard approval, adopted projects will be transmitted to the Southern Califomia Association of Governments(SCAG) for inclusion in the Regional Transportation Improvement Program(RTIP). A workshopwill be scheduled with successful project sponsors to review and discuss administrative requirements. ATTACHMENTS: A. Specific RecommendationInformation B.

MTAfund allocations are recommendedfor five projects; three of the projects require full MTAfunding, and two projects require partial MTAfunding as they are earmarkedfor partial funding under the State Traffic CongestionRelief Plan and had received previous MTACall for Projects grants. There are five additional projects that are earmarkedfor fundingin the State Traffic CongestionRelief Plan: 1) two of the projects are fully fundedand therefore, do not need any MTAfunds; and 2) two are fully funded for Right-of Wayacquisition

  • THE SOUND of MUSIC Wednesday, October 7, 2015 Ahmanson Theatre, Los Angeles
    experienceL.A. THE SOUND OF MUSIC Wednesday, October 7, 2015 Ahmanson Theatre, Los Angeles THE SOUND OF MUSIC The Sound of Music is a stage and film musical based on The Story of the Trapp Family Singers, the memoir of Maria von Trapp. The story takes place in Austria at the brink of World War II. Maria, a plucky nun turned governess, is charged with caring for the seven children of a military captain. Maria’s delightful teaching of music to the children leads to their becoming a celebrated touring act, the innocence of which is shattered as the realities of Nazi rule become inescapable. Notably, many details of the von Trapp family story were changed to increase the dramatic impact of the musical version. Inspired by a pair of German films about the von Trapps from the mid-1950s, the stage version of The Sound of Music premiered on Broadway in 1959. The production won multiple Tony Awards, and the show has been revived many times since, including a renowned 1998 Broadway revival. The 1965 film version starring Julie Andrews won five Academy Awards and is still beloved today by viewers around the world. Written by Rodgers and Hammerstein, the songs of The Sound of Music—including “My Favorite Things,” “Do, Re, Mi,” “Edelweiss,” and the title song—have been celebrated for more than half a century. RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN Composer Richard Rodgers and librettist Oscar Hammerstein were one of the most prolific, successful songwriting teams in the history of musical theatre. The pair’s first collaboration, Oklahoma! (1943), marked the start of a new theatrical genre: the musical play, which combined elements of musical comedy, operetta, and drama.

    MORPHOSIS 5960 Sunset Boulevard, Hollywood 2014 Emerson College opened this Morphosis-designed, glass-and- aluminum satellite campus in Hollywood in 2014. While Emerson has been Boston-based since the nineteenth century and has long focused on the performing arts, the Los Angeles campus aims to boost graduates’ job prospects by allowing them to spend semesters in the company of the area’s entertainment industry giants. The campus, which features a first-rate view of the Hollywood sign, firmly indicates Emerson’s prominent role as an entertainment industry educator. A sculptural, free-form base connects the two rectangular ten-story towers that make up this 107,400-square-foot building on LOS ANGELES Sunset Boulevard. An overhead bridge anchors two towers, which serve as student residences. The base features lecture halls, black box theaters, and other educational and performance spaces. In order to maximize the creative possibilities of the building, Morphosis’s design includes rigging for film-quality lighting and sound through most of the interior and exterior spaces, so that students may spontaneously transform them into sets or a stage. Thanks to Morphosis’s smart balance of window shading for heat reduction and use of the abundant natural light, the Emerson campus is anticipated to receive a LEED Gold rating. In addition, solar panels cover the rooftop of the west tower, providing enough energy to heat the building’s hot water.
