H1-I­ r/3>i Report U BRAMPTON Budget Committee bramptonca ROWBT Gly Committee of the Council of The Corporation of the City of Brampton Date: March 18,2015 Budget Committee Date: Mar 30, 31 & Apr 2, 2015 File: T66

Subject: Free Transit for Students Living in Brampton (Grades 9, 10 and 11)

Contact: Suzanne Connor, Executive Director, Transit

Overview: • During the Community & Public Services Committee meeting held on February 18, 2015 a request (Item E1 CPS017-2015) was made to provide free transit service to Brampton students:

o consider launching this free service as a Pilot Project, to Brampton secondary school students enrolled in Grades 9, 10, and 11 with a PRESTO card and Student ID;

o this free service was requested to be provided Monday to Friday 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., but ideally would be provided on a 24 hours/day 365 days/year basis.

o share the pilot data publically so that City-wide implications for a City-wide implementation can be determined. Committee consideration of this matter included referral of the delegation request to staff for a report, to include validation of the information, financial implications, and analysis of costs, for consideration during the 2015 Budget deliberations. This report provides the requested information for Budget Committee's further consideration of the matter, including an analysis of cost per household to implement the delegation's proposal. Based on conservative forecasting of the estimated student ridership demand expected to be generated from the proposal, funding in the amount of $17.0M would be required as follows: o Minimum one-time capital funding of $10.17M for eighteen forty-foot growth buses; o Approximately 8,900 additional annual service hours equating to an annual operating cost of $3.90M for staffing and maintenance costs; o Annual fare revenue loss estimated at $2.89M based on 198 school days. Annual Operating costs of $6.79M are equivalent to an approximate annual property tax increase of 1.87% or $34 on the average assessed household tax bill. Capital funding options for the $10.17M include a 1 year special tax levy of $50 on the average assessed household tax bill, the equivalent reduction of other repair & replacement capital projects or external financing.

Recommendations:

1. THAT, further to CPS017-2015, the report entitled "Free Transit for Students Living in Brampton (Grades 9,10, AND 11)" dated March 5, 2015 from Suzanne Connor, Executive Director, Transit, be received; 2. THAT Budget Committee provide further consideration of this matter during the 2015 Budget deliberations.

Background:

At the regular meeting held on February 18, 2015 the Community & Public Services Committee heard a delegation for consideration of providing free transit service to students in Brampton enrolled in Grades 9, 10, and 11 with a PRESTO Card and Student ID Monday to Friday 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

The delegation's request was made in the form of a video that was presented by Fazal Khan, Brampton resident, on behalf of Janet Atherley. Mr. Khan's video entitled "How Do Students Get to School? A Community Transportation Plan", outlined a proposal for providing free transit for Brampton students in Grades 9,10 and 11.

Following the presentation Mr. Khan responded to questions of clarification from Committee with respect to consultation with the School Boards.

The matter was referred to staff to provide further information and analysis as follows:

CPS017-2015 1. That the delegation of Fazal Khan, Brampton resident, on behalf of Janet Atherley, to the Community & Public Services Community Meeting of February 18,2015, re: Free Transit for Students Living in Brampton Grades 9, 10 and 11 with a PRESTO Card and Student ID Monday to Friday 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. be received; and, 2. That the delegation request be referred to staff for a report back to Budget Committee or Budget Sub- Committee, as appropriate, for validation of the information contained in the presentation video, as well as the implications of the proposal, including an analysis of the cost per household to implement the proposal.

Current Situation:

Brampton Transit offers existing discounts for transit fares including:

• Preschool Children (5 years of age and under) are free when accompanied by a fare paying passenger; • Children (Grades 1-8 who are between 6-12 years of age) reduced fare; • Students (Grades 9-12 who are between 13-19 years of age) reduced fare; • Seniors (65 years of age and older) reduced fare H7-I-3 • Brampton Seniors (65 years of age and older with proof of Brampton residency) pay $1 cash fare with valid photo identification card; • Persons with Vision Loss (with a valid C.N.I.B card) are free; • Veterans Pass are free.

The current fare structure, effective March 31, 2014, is illustrated in Table 1 in Appendix A.

In 2014, student trips accounted for 10% of total ridership (revenue paying passengers, not including transfers), and the total fare revenues collected for students in 2014 was $3.85M; this figure includes: a. students aged 13-19 years (Grades 9-12); and b. children aged 6-12 years (Grades 1-8); and c. children aged 5 years and younger account for only 2% of the total ridership. Most children travel with a fare paying passenger, in which case the child trip is free.

Refer to Table 2 in Appendix A for the 2014 ridership and fare revenue summary by category.

Presentation Video Review

As requested staff have completed a review of the information and references included in Mr. Khan's video entitled "How Do Students Get to School? A Community Transportation Plan".

For ease of reference staff have summarized the key elements of the video presentation (in italics), followed by the corresponding staff responses (SR#) as follows:

11 Brampton student transit and the opportunity to engage our young people.

SR1: Staff are always seeking new and innovative ways to attract new ridership, especially with the youth generations, including the availability of unique fare products (e.g. the weekly pass), school engagement, and targeted marketing. Each year, Transit Staff attend information sessions at a number of secondary schools, particularly new schools in new growth areas and where there have been major changes in enrollment or boundaries.

21 Brampton is a big City, almostas big in population as Vancouver.

SR2: Based on the 2013 Canadian Urban Transit Association Urban Transit Statistics, the comparison on Page 4 can be made: H7-I-M

Source: 2013 CUTA UTS City of Brampton Metro Vancouver Population 557,800 2,451,783 Service Area Population 547,760 2,451,783 Service Area Size 266.8 km* 1,800.0 km* Transit services provided within the Cityof Vancouver are provided to an estimated population ofapproximately 603,500(2013) citizens included within the overall Metro Vancouver service area as reported to CUTA noted above.

31 Asa City and Region we already provide free services that don't have an additional user fee, we accept these as free services so whynot student transit? (e.g. fire services, road construction, policing, recreational facilities and snow removal) SR3: Many services whether municipal or regional responsibility (i.e. fire, policing) are legislative requirements and must be provided and funded. Recreational programs generally have user fees to offset costs. Transit services are heavily subsidized, with user fees (fares) contributing to 45% of direct operating cost. A lower average fare resulting from providing free transit or concession fares (discounted fares) will require either a higher subsidy and/or higher fares for other users.

41 Toronto City Council will be deciding on free transit for students aged 12 &under.

SR4: Effective March 1, 2015 the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) introduced free fares for elementary school students aged twelve (12) years of age and under.

This policy change was implemented as a result of the Metrolinx Fare Service Integration (FSI) initiative underway to simplify and streamline fare categories across the GTHA. Prior to this change, the TTC had a complex fare structure for elementary school aged children 12 and under and charged fares for: • Infant (0-1 years of age) • Toddler (2-5 years of age) • Child (6-12 years of age)

Staff have received confirmation from the TTC staff that there are no plans to review or introduce free transit for secondary students aged students (13 years - 19 years of age).

5 / City of Kingston alreadyprovides free transit to students in Grades 9/10 and recently extended tostudents in Grade 11.

SR5: Kingston Gets Active (KGA), is a community-wide partnership consisting of school boards and other organizations (including the City of Kingston). KGA administers the Grade 9 "Community Activity Pass". The Community Activity Pass permits Grade 9 students throughout Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox & Addington W7-I-S (KFL&A) Counties to access recreation programs, such as public swimming and public skating, at a variety of facilities within the KFL&A area at no charge.

A pilot project was introduced in 2012 that included free (to the user) transit for Grade 9 students only attending high schools within the City. This service was added to the Community Activity Pass, in addition to the other services noted above.

The administration and promotion of the free transit service is fully managed by Kingston Gets Active as part of the current Grade 9 program. As this was an established, existing program, the expansion to include free access to for Grade 9 students was completed without additional City resources.

In 2013, the pilot project scope was expanded to include Grade 10 students, and in 2014 expanded again to include Grade 11 students. A report on the pilot project and recommendation on whether to adopt the pilot as an ongoing program is expected in the summer of 2015, in consideration of the 2015/16 school year.

In terms of the initial pilot program scope within the KFL&A there are approximately 4,000 secondary school students (Grades 9-12), with only 200-300 users of the Grade 9 Activity Pass each year. In comparison, Peel's total secondary school enrollment is approximately 30,000 - or more than seven times of KFL&A, with about 74% (22,200) of these students currently enrolled in Grades 9-11.

The revenue lost as a result of the Grade 9 complimentary transit pass program was estimated at $30,300. This figure was absorbed by Kingston Transit (City of Kingston) in the first year, funded from the tax base.

Realizing this revenue loss was not sustainable to the tax base, when the program expanded to include the Grade 10 students in 2013, it was approved by Kingston City Council subject to a combined financial contribution of $30,000 from the Limestone District School Board and Algonquin Lakeshore Catholic District School Boards. The school boards agreed to make a contribution of $30,000 to cover program costs associated with the foregone revenues resulting from expanding the program to Grade 10 students. This contribution repeated in 2014.

61 Public transit is often negotiated between Universities and their Cities > Students at McMaster University get a transitpass for a small added fee to their tuition. > University of Waterloo has a similar program > Closer to home so does UTM (Universityof Toronto Mississauga Campus) and students can use their U-Pass on MiWay

SR6: Many cities in that have post-secondary institutions that have successfully implemented universal pass (U-Pass) programs. Brampton Transit has had ongoing discussions with Sheridan College regarding the opportunity of introducing a U- Pass, noting that introducing a U-Pass would require a student referendum vote. 5 In comparison between "free student transit" and existing U-Pass programs: • U-Pass programs are not provided "free of charge". The (reduced) cost of a transit pass is built into the student's tuition fees. This fee is mandatory and must be paid by all students, regardless if they plan to use the U-pass or not. • U-Pass programs generate significant revenues to offset the cost of providing the required additional service, and represent a notable percentage of the respective transit systems annual ridership. Refer to Table 3 below:

U-Pass Program Summary TABLE 3

U-Pass % Total U-Pass % Total Ref# Institution/Provider Ridership Ridership Revenues Revenues 1 McMaster University 2.2M 9.8% $2.65M 7.3% Co (HSR) 2 Universityof Toronto Mississauga (UTM) 1.7M 4.6% S2.65M 3.6% MiWay (Mississauga) 3 Waterloo & Sir Wilfrid Laurier Universities 5.1 M 25.9% $4.64M 18.6% (GRT) 4 Western University& 9.1 M 38.4% $9.66M 30.0% London Transit Commission 5 TTC; 43.4M 8.0% $67.0M 6.0% Post-Secondary MetroPass

7 / Why the need for free student transit? Don't ourschool boards already get our students to school? > They do for some but not for most. > They have not been able to get good data on how many students are eligible for school board funded transportation in Brampton. > 30,000 or so high school students across the 2 major boards in Brampton > Based on limited data they estimate that approximately 12% or 3,500 of these 30,000 students use Brampton Transit for their school transportation. > Many others get dropped off by Mom or Dad, more and more parents are driving their kids to school. > An active transportation plan that includes walking, biking, and busing will reverse this unnecessary trend. > Opportunity to connect students to programs they have a passion for, that the school boards do not provide student transportation to/from, including: Co-op., volunteer work, after-school, and sports programs. SR7: Based on figures provided by Student Transportation of Peel Region (STOPR) the total enrolment for Brampton secondary schools (both Boards) = 30,195. This is broken down by students in Grade 9-11 = 22,203 and Grade 12 students = 7,992. • A total of 3,738 (12.4%) Grade 9-12 students are eligible for Board provided transportation (i.e. school bus). These services are paid for by the respective school boards. H7-I-7 81 Data. > Based on Brampton Transit's website the average weekday trips is 76,250 per day. > Assume 2 tripsper day perperson equates to approximately 38,125 riders per day. > Based on our population statistics from 2011 this translates to approximately 7% of residents > 7% is nowhere good enough, this number is over 40% is some parts of Toronto > Far way to go to mobilize our residents onto public transit

SR8: Official mode share statistics are based on the most recent (2011) Transportation Tomorrow Survey, overall modal share to transit in the GTA is 14%.

The average for Toronto is 24%, which ranges from 15% to 41% depending on the area, but are typically in the high 20% range. Higher modal shares in Toronto tend to be in areas adjacent to rapid transit lines (i.e. subways) and in the downtown core area. Asummary of 24 hour average modal share for our area is as follows1: • Brampton: 6% • Vaughan: 7% • Mississauga: 8% • Toronto: 24%

The 2009 Transit & Transportation Master Plan (TTMP) sets a 2021 mode share target for Brampton of 16.1% (includes local transit and GO Transit trips). Several programs are in place to build transit ridership to this goal, including the Zum project and a significant investment in capital and operating resources to improve support corridors and local services.

91 Cost of paying for student transit is one that many tax paying families cannot afford: > 2.50/trip x 2trips/day x 188 days/year x 4 years = $3,760

SR9: The calculation noted above is accurate, however, the 188 days referenced are reflective of actual instructional days. Staff use a slightly higher figure provided by the school boards of 198 days (which is inclusive of exam days, etc.) when planning School Special routes and trips.

Also, Peel District School Board and the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board determine their school board funding busing transportation eligibility. For secondary school students residing within Peel Region this distance is 3.8km for both school boards. Students residing further than 3.8km from their assigned home school are eligible for school bus transportation at no cost to the student's family. Students who reside within a 3.8km radius to their assigned home school may elect to take public

101 Current taxpayer subsidy level for Transit is 15% of net City budget. > Loss of student revenue if provided free public transit- Operating Expenses: $111M Revenue/Fare: $63M Tax Payer Subsidy: $48M (15%) Current Student Fares: $3.5M SR10: Staff have reviewed the figures quoted above as included in the delegation's presentation. It should be noted that based on the Approved 2014 Current Budget the figures should reflect: Operating Expenses: $112.9M Fare Revenue: $52.0M Provincial Subsidy: $8.7M Tax Payer Subsidy: $52.2M / $350.5M (Revised Tax Levy 2014) = 14.9% Current Student Fares: $3.8M** **Note: Includes all Child (Grades 1-8) & Student (Grades 9-12). For Grades 9-11 specifically fare revenues are calculated at $2.4M at 198 school days.

111 Suggested plan to recover lost revenues: 1. Increase ridership utilization; > argue that many students travel in the off-peak hours and increase utilization of the system. 2. Look for efficiencies; > 15% of our taxes are going to provide service for 7% of our residents. We need to do more with current resources. 3. Get sponsors specifically for student transit; 4. Active Transportation Plan: > Work with developers to design for active transportation in new developments. 5. Case study for Province; > Showcase our student transit solution as a case study to the Province on alternative models for student transportation and how we should fund it.

SR11: 1. Based on a detailed analysis completed by staff it was determined that the majority of students would be travelling in the peak hours, or immediately adjacent to the peak hours resulting in a direct operational impact.

Refer to Appendix B for a summary based on travel times across the 24 secondary schools in Brampton, according to the bell times for the morning (arrivals) and afternoon (dismissals) and impact.

8 Based on information obtained from Kingston Transit over the last three years of their pilot project, ridership patterns for the Grade 9 and 10 students indicate that the majority of usage is related to traveling to/from school. Kingston staff estimate that approximately 65%-85% of all trips occurred on weekdays from 7:00 to 9:00 a.m. and from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. (during peak-hours). The remaining 15%-35% of trips are spread across evenings and weekends with no distinguishable pattern of usage.

Annually at the end of May, transit properties across Canada are required to report their operating statistics to the Canadian Urban Transit Association (CUTA). A benchmarking report entitled "CUTA Urban Transit Statistics" is published annually. The current version of this document is for the 2013 operating year (as 2014 has yet to be published).

Some key efficiency comparators within this report: TABLE 4 Year: 2013 City of Canadian Source: CUTA UTS Brampton Average Cost Efficiency2 $103.88 $132.65 Amount of Service3 1.64 1.96 Ridership Growth4 5.2% 2.2%

In 2013, according to CUTA, Brampton Transit put out 19.5% less service hours per capita than the rest of Canada (on average), and did so for 27.7% less cost ­ based on the Canadian average for total cost per service hour. Consequently, Brampton Transit's ridership grew to more than double than that of the Canadian average for systems operating in Population Group 2 (400,000-2,000,000) in 2013.

3. There were no further details provided by the delegation, in terms of sponsorship, that would require a staff response.

4. Collectively, staff review each development application in detail as part of the Development Application process to ensure the TTMP targets are considered.

5. Staff openly share transit data as requested and should a pilot project be approved further consideration of this component would be completed.

Transit Demand Analysis: A detailed transit demand analysis has been completed by staff based on the delegations' proposal. Three utilization scenarios (low, baseline, and high) were developed based on estimated demand based on a range of walking distances to schools.

2Cost Efficiency = (Total Direct &Auxiliary Operating Expenses / Total Service Hours) 3Amount ofService = (Total Service Hours / Capita) 4Ridership = Number of revenue passengerstrips, excluding transfers. (Population Group 2 = 400,000 ­ 2,000,000). 9 H7-I-1© The assumption is that a student living 1.5km or less from their school is more apt to just walk to school, as opposed to a student residing greater than 2.5km away, but is still not eligible for school board funded transportation (yellow bus) at 3.8km away, as noted in Table 5 below: TABLE 5 Percentage of Estimated Student Walk Ridership Using Free Transit Distance (Grades 9-11) (km) Low Case Baseline High Case

=<1.5 5% 15% 25% 1.6-2.5 10% 25% 30% 2.6-3.8 15% 35% 40%

For each of the three scenarios above, staff then: a) Calculated the total potential ridership demand (Grades 9-11) that would be generated using current student enrollment data for the twenty-four secondary schools provided by STOPR; b) Determined the existing available capacity on the present day transit service based on actual route level ridership by time of day; c) Based on total demand (a) and available capacity (b), then determined the minimum number of additional buses and service hours (estimated 2.5 service hours per day per vehicle) that would be required under each scenario.

In order to support the estimated student ridership demand calculated under the Low Case scenario above, and protect core service, a total of 18 additional growth vehicles and 8,900 additional services hours (based on 198 school days) is required. This is a conservative estimate based on the low case scenario.

Financial Implications: The total costing of the proposal has been calculated using the Low Case scenario (Table 5 above), and is inclusive of the following: 1. Additional Vehicles to Satisfy Demand Generated: • Minimum Requirement: eighteen additional forty-foot growth buses based on conservative forecasted demand. o One-time Capital Equipment Acquisition Cost: $10.17M; plus 2. Additional Annual Operating Expenses: • Approximately 8,900 additional annual service hours would be required to satisfy the forecasted demand. This estimate includes the staffing (e.g. operator) and maintenance costs (e.g. fuel) providing for 2.5 services hours per day for 198 school days (instructional and exams). This is based on the existing school bell times. o Annual Ongoing Operating Cost: $3.90M for; plus

10 KM-II 3. Compensation for Loss of Existing Fare Revenues: • Calculation of fare revenue loss (Students Grades 9-11) is specific to the school year and therefore does not include the summer months (from the end of June to beginning of September). • Should free transit be provided during the summer months and/or evenings and weekends, the revenue loss forecasted would be greater than estimated above. Additional service hours would be required to accommodate summer school trips. Currently during summer school classes in July, 28 peak buses are added to transport students and protect core service. These vehicles are available during this period due to lower overall ridership demand in the summer months. o Annual Ongoing Fare Revenue Loss5: $2.89M Other: Special Purpose Tickets Issued to School Boards: • Presently, under the authority of Council Resolution CW214-2007, Brampton Transit provides "Special Purpose Tickets" (SPT) to the school boards and STOPR as follows (2014 actuals): o 37,310 "Discounted" tickets at $2.50 per ticket. Revenues: $89,500 o 48,440 "Free" tickets. Expense: $121,100 o Distribution: Secondary School (70%) and Elementary School (30%) o Favourable variance: $31,500 x 70% = $22,050

The above costs are based on the Low Case demand estimate, and could be higher based on a higher uptake. It should be noted that these baseline costs have been prepared using existing student enrollment data and board provided transportation eligibility as provided to staff by STOPR, and existing transit routing and level of service.

Operating costs of $6.79M are equivalent to an approximate annual property tax increase of 1.87% or $34 on the average assessed household tax bill (2015 Average Assessed Household = $381,000).

Capital funding options for the $10.17M include: • 1 year special property tax levy of 2.81 % or $50 on the average assessed household tax bill. • Equivalent reduction of other repair & replacement capital projects. • External Financing / Debt

The sunk costs related to this test pilot are significant. The following equivalencies have been provided to illustrate the order of magnitude of this decision: • $10.17M Capital Acquisition (one-time) is equivalent to 30% of the annual Asset Repair & Replacement funding from the City's tax levy. • $6.79M Operating costs (ongoing) is equivalent to 68% of the 2014 Property Tax Levy increase.

5Calculation basedon 198 school days (including instructional and exams) for students in Grades 9-11 11 H7*M2 Development Charges (Transit) has not been considered as a funding source for this initiative, as the Transit growth program is already fully committed over the build out horizon for the current growth strategy.

Strategic Plan:

This report achieves the Strategic Plan priorities by fostering a positive civic image and sense of community pride by raising the awareness of programs and services, especially those geared to youths and seniors. Furthermore through this dialogue staff have transparently communicated the impacts associated with the proposal to effect meaningful decision-making and consultation.

Conclusion:

As requested, staff have provided comments addressing the key messages provided in the delegations' presentation for further consideration by Budget Committee.

Based on the proposal, the introduction of free transit for secondary school students in Grades 9-11 is expected to generate ridership that cannot be accommodated on existing transit service. Based on a conservative analysis by staff, it is estimated that an additional eighteen (18) growth buses and 8,900 additional service hours would be required. Factoring in the operation and maintenance costs, and projected loss in existing student (Grades 9-11) staff estimate the combined capital and operating cost to be approximately $17.0M and provided the impact per household for consideration.

Kingston Transit has received $30,000 per year in 2013 and 2014 respectively from the Limestone District School Board and Algonquin Lakeshore Catholic District School Boards for compensation of estimated student fare revenue loss. Kingston Transit will be reporting back in May/June 2015 on the status of their expanded pilot project, including a recommendation whether to continue the program for the 2015/16 school year and beyond.

At the time of report issue, other than Kingston Transit, there are no known transit service providers in (or Canada based on CUTA 2013 UTS) providing "free" transit service to secondary school students in Grades 9-11.

Student ridership in Brampton represents approximately 8% of total ridership. Most transit systems offer a reduced student fare, as does Brampton Transit, either through single payments or period passes (including weekly, monthly, or "student activity passes").
