STATE LEGISLATIVE STATUS REPORT File Number 7300400

Introduction

Periodic status reports on legislative activities are provided to the Executive Committee during the year. This status provides a summary of key provisions related to SANDAG in the Governor’s FY 2014-15 budget proposal.

Discussion

State Budget Update

On January 9, 2014, Governor Jerry Brown released the proposed FY 2014-15 budget package, which projects General Fund revenues of $108.7 billion in FY 2014-15 and assumes $106.8 billion in General Fund expenditures, $9 billion more than the current year’s $98 billion budget. As the economy continues to improve, the Governor proposes a balanced, multi-year budget that includes a $1.6 billion rainy day fund, including a proposed constitutional amendment to strengthen it. In addition, the $25 billion “wall of debt” is proposed to shrink by more than $11 billion this year.

Transportation and Infrastructure

Key components in the transportation budget include investments from Cap and Trade proceeds, early loan repayments from the General Fund, and the remaining allocation of Proposition 1B funds.

Cap and Trade Proceeds

A total of $850 million is proposed to be invested for transportation and environmental purposes. This includes the repayment of $100 million that was loaned to the General Fund in last year’s budget, with the remaining $400 million to be repaid in future years:

• High-Speed Rail: $250 million for the High-Speed Rail Authority for initial construction of the Central Valley segment and environmental and design work on the statewide system

• Integration of Rail Systems: $50 million for Caltrans to administer a competitive grant program for existing rail operators for capital improvements to integrate rail systems and provide connectivity to the high-speed rail system

• Sustainable Communities Strategies: $100 million for the Strategic Growth Council for implementation of Sustainable Communities Strategies under Senate Bill 375 (Steinberg, 2008) (SB 375) through a competitive grant program. Priorities include transit ridership, active transportation, affordable housing near transit stations, and local planning that promotes infill development

• Low Carbon Transportation: $200 million for the Air Resources Board to accelerate the transition to low carbon freight and passenger transportation, with priority for disadvantaged communities

• Energy Efficiency and Clean Energy: $250 million in energy efficiency proposals relating to weatherization upgrades, green state buildings, agricultural energy, water infrastructure and water action plans, urban forests, and waste management infrastructure

Repayment of General Fund Loans

The total $351 million in early General Fund loan repayments include $337 million to be used for preservation and maintenance projects on state highways and local roads that would otherwise be funded in FY 2015-16 or later.

Appropriation of Proposition 1B Bond Funds

A total of $1.1 billion of bond funds and administrative costs savings from the bond program are proposed to be spent on projects in the following areas:

• $793 million to support local transit operators

• $160 million for intercity rail

• $113 million for state highway projects

Debt Service and Infrastructure

General Fund debt service increases by $416.5 million over current year expenditures to a total of $6 billion due to recent bond sales and the planned issuance of additional bonds over the next year. The Governor also released the 2014 Five-Year Infrastructure Plan outlining infrastructure priorities for major state infrastructure programs, including natural resources, transportation, and high-speed rail. Additionally, $815 million of one-time investments in maintenance and infrastructure are proposed to be allocated to the following:

• Highway Users Tax Account Loan Repayment: $337 million

• K-12 Schools Emergency Repair Program: $188 million

• California Community Colleges: $175 million

• Department of Parks and Recreation: $40 million

• Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation: $20 million

2

• Judicial Branch: $15 million

• Department of Developmental Services: $10 million

• Department of State Hospitals: $10 million

• Department of General Services: $7 million

• State Special Schools: $5 million

• Department of Forestry and Fire Protection: $3 million

• California Military Department: $3 million

• Department of Food and Agriculture: $2 million

Next Steps

Staff will continue to monitor and update the Executive Committee as the budget process continues to develop.

TO: SANDAG BOARD OF DIRECTORS FROM: ELLISON WILSON ADVOCACY, LLC SUBJECT: SANDAG LEGISLATIVE ACTIVITY REPORT – JANUARY 2014

CAPITOL UPDATE

The Legislature is back in session to commence the second year of the 2013-14 Legislative Session, and as expected, several hundred bills were already introduced or amended. January 31 was the deadline for all bills introduced in 2013 to be passed out of their House of Origin, so January began with a quick start. The deadline to introduce new legislation for 2014 is February 21, so we expect the bulk of new legislation to be introduced the week before the deadline.

Legislators are gearing up for a pivotal election-year session, which will inevitably impact everything this year. There will be leadership changes in both parties, in both houses. Governor Jerry Brown is up for re- election in 2014 as well. The freshman lawmakers elected under California's newly extended term limits in November 2012 will not be termed out until 2024 – which means that newly elected party leadership and committee chairs could remain in power for up to 10 years with much less turnover. However, three out of the four caucus leaders are set to leave office after this year due to term limits, including both the Senate President Pro Tem and Assembly Speaker.

The Democrats will retain a supermajority – 55 seats in the Assembly, 28 in the Senate – having won a number of special elections this Fall, including: Democrat Matt Dababneh in the 45th Assembly District (West San Fernando Valley); Democrat Freddie Rodriguez in the 52nd Assembly District (Inland Southern California including Ontario); and Democrat Sebastian Ridley-Thomas in the 54th Assembly District (Los Angeles). The Legislature will still be one seat short of full capacity after months of special elections, as Republican Senator Bill Emmerson made the surprise announcement that he would step down; current Republican Assembly Member Mike Morrell is ultimately expected to fill Emmerson’s Senate seat, which will leave another opening in the Assembly.

As for the leadership, current Senate Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg has announced that one of the known frontrunners among possible successors, Senator Kevin de Leon, will be the next leader of the state Senate. While Steinberg has previously said that he intends to continue serving as Pro Tem until his term ends in November, Steinberg will now likely call for a formal vote on de Leon's leadership after the budget is passed in June. Previously, Senator Mark DeSaulnier was in the running for the position as well, but pulled out of the race after announcing that he intends to run for Congress this year. No other candidates have emerged so far, and typically the Pro Tem’s announcement is intended to make it clear to any other interested parties that the leader of the Senate has already been informally chosen.

4 As for the Assembly, the race to succeed current speaker John Perez (who is running for State Controller since he is termed out of the Assembly this year) has apparently been decided. Although there were a number of “freshmen” candidates (those elected in 2012 under the new term limit law), the Democratic Caucus has elected Asm. Toni Atkins from San Diego as the next speaker. Details on the timing of the transition have not been announced. Interestingly, she only has two years left to serve in the Assembly, so the race to succeed her will begin almost as soon as she ascends to the position.

In early January the Governor formally released his budget proposal (after a leak forced him to announce it a day early). The proposal includes a $106.8 billion general fund and a $2.3 billion reserve at the end of 2014-15, and seems to focus on debt repayment, building up a budget reserve, and restoring funding to some previously cut programs. Many consultants, including the Legislative Analyst, an independent and nonpartisan arm of state government, have advised against new spending on anything other than education. The budget will continue to be discussed heavily over the next six months and is expected to be revised considerably by the Legislature. Lawmakers have until June 15 to send the governor a balanced budget.

PROPOSED FY 2014 STRATEGIC GROWTH File Number 3102000 COUNCIL GRANT PROGRAM SUBMITTALS

Introduction Recommendation

The Strategic Growth Council (SGC) has The Executive Committee is asked to recommend issued a call for applications for the that the Board of Directors approve: (1) the “Sustainable Communities Planning Grant proposed SANDAG submittal and associated and Incentives Program” for projects that Resolution of Support for the FY 2014 Strategic support sustainable communities and reduce Growth Council Grant Program; and (2) the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This report partnership requests by the cities of San Diego and describes the SANDAG grant application, El Cajon, as described in this report. proposed partnership requests for joint proposals, and solicitations for letters of support.

Discussion

Sustainable Communities Planning Grant and Incentives Program

The Sustainable Communities Planning Grant and Incentives Program is funded by Proposition 84, the Safe Drinking Water, Water Quality and Supply, Flood Control, River, and Coastal Protection Bond Act of 2006. The grant program is managed by the SGC, a cabinet-level committee that advises the Governor and Legislature on sustainable community development. A focus area of the grant program is to fund collaborative efforts by metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) and local governments that foster the development of sustainable communities and implement Senate Bill 375 (Steinberg, 2008) and Assembly Bill 32 (Nunez, 2006).

Previous Grant Funding Allocations for SANDAG

Since its formation in 2008, the SGC has funded two statewide grant cycles; SANDAG applied successfully in both cycles. In 2011, SANDAG received a $750,000 grant to begin implementation of the 2050 Regional Transportation Plan and its Sustainable Communities Strategy (2050 RTP/SCS) and support initial work to update the Regional Comprehensive Plan, including greater involvement of low-income and minority communities through community based organizations (CBOs). In 2012, SANDAG received $886,000 to continue statewide MPO collaboration and to undertake various initiatives, including development of alternative land use scenarios to reduce GHG emissions, a safe routes to transit program, a regional transit oriented development strategy, and an active transportation implementation strategy.

Current SGC Grant Cycle

The current SGC grant cycle makes $16 million available for local and regional planning projects that lead to GHG emission reductions and foster sustainable communities throughout California. Individual applications are limited to $500,000; joint submittals can apply for up to $1 million. Eligible applicants can be included in a maximum of three proposals (two local/regional planning applications and one application in an “Environmental Justice” set-aside category).

Proposed SANDAG FY 2014 Grant Program Submittal

For this cycle, it is proposed that a $500,000 SANDAG grant application be submitted with a focus on furthering the 2050 RTP/SCS and completing the next SCS through incentives and innovation. SANDAG is in the process of updating the plan and completing the next SCS through the development of San Diego Forward: The Regional Plan. SGC grant funding would contribute to two critical activities:

• Providing resources to continue to build upon and sustain CBO engagement in low-income and minority communities

• Developing modeling enhancements specific to the San Diego region to more accurately quantify the benefits of SANDAG active transportation projects.

The activities for which funding is requested are included in the proposed SANDAG FY 2015 Program Budget and Overall Work Program as multiyear projects. The SGC guidelines require a minimum 10 percent cash and in-kind match, and do not allow funds to be used for indirect costs. Therefore, a portion of funding already allocated in the proposed FY 2015 Program Budget would be used as the match and would cover anticipated indirect costs.

The SGC guidelines also require a signed Resolution of Support from the governing board of the lead agency submitting the proposal. The Executive Committee is asked to recommend Board approval of Resolution No. 2014-10 (Attachment 1), which approves the filing of the grant application and certifies that SANDAG will have sufficient funds to develop the proposal.

Proposed SANDAG Partnership Requests

City of San Diego – Balboa Transit Station Planning Grant

The City of San Diego has requested that SANDAG serve as a co-applicant on a joint grant proposal of approximately $700,000 supporting a specific planning effort for the Balboa transit station for the Mid-Coast Corridor Transit Project, which is a key priority for SANDAG. As shown in the 2050 RTP/SCS, the Balboa station will function as a key multi-modal transit station connecting the north/south Mid-Coast Trolley line that will link downtown San Diego and Old Town to University City and UC San Diego, and the planned east/west Trolley line that will link Pacific Beach to Kearny Mesa. As a result, coordinated land use and transportation planning at the station and in the surrounding area will be critical to the success of two future light-rail lines, active transportation projects, and smart growth/transit oriented development opportunities.

The City of San Diego has committed to providing all required matching funds for the joint proposal. The role of SANDAG would consist of allocating staff time to support the Balboa transit

station planning process to ensure coordination of the regional and local transportation plans and programs, and to support the ongoing Mid-Coast Corridor work.

City of El Cajon – Environmental Justice Set-Aside Grant

The SGC identifies specific geographic areas that are eligible to compete for Environmental Justice set-aside grants. These grants are intended to target and directly benefit certain communities identified by the State.1 The four areas eligible to apply for the set-aside grants in the San Diego region include portions of in the City of San Diego as well as parts of National City, El Cajon, and Escondido. SANDAG only can partner on one Environmental Justice grant application.

Staff reached out to the four eligible cities to inquire whether they would be submitting applications, and if so, whether there was a desire for SANDAG to serve as a co-applicant. SANDAG received requests to serve as a co-applicant from the City of San Diego (through Civic San Diego) on a specific plan to pursue infrastructure investments at the Euclid and Market transit station area in the Encanto Community Planning Area; the City of National City on a master plan to coordinate land use and transportation planning efforts along Harbor Drive; and the City of El Cajon to prepare a General Plan update and associated documents. The City of Escondido has indicated that it will submit its own individual application for less than $500,000, and is requesting a support letter from SANDAG (see below).

Based on discussions with staff members from each jurisdiction, SANDAG staff proposes to partner with the City of El Cajon on a $1 million Environmental Justice Set-Aside Grant application for a comprehensive update to its General Plan, land use regulations, and infrastructure plans. A General Plan update and related program environmental impact report would allow the City of El Cajon to align its vision for community investment with SANDAG regional plans and use the various California Environmental Quality Act streamlining provisions adopted by the Legislature in recent years to accelerate transit oriented development investment in transit project priority areas, maximize its potential for economic development and sustainability, particularly in its environmental justice areas, and strengthen the community’s ability to compete for future capital grant programs. The City of El Cajon has committed to providing all required matching funds for the joint proposal. The role of SANDAG would consist of allocating staff time to support this comprehensive effort and ensure coordination of the regional and local transportation plans and programs, as included in the 2050 RTP/SCS.

Letters of Support for other Local Proposals

Working in coordination with the Regional Planning Technical Working Group, staff has received notification from the following jurisdictions requesting support letters from SANDAG: the cities of

The 5 and 10 percent highest scoring statewide zip codes are used to determine eligibility for the SGC Environmental Justice set-aside grant.

Santee, Escondido, Chula Vista, and La Mesa. Staff will provide support letters for each of the proposals.

Next Steps

Pending action by the Executive Committee and Board of Directors, the proposals described in this report will be submitted to the SGC by the February 28, 2014, deadline. Awards are anticipated to be announced this summer and agreements to begin work are expected this fall. Pending grant application outcomes, any necessary budget amendments will be brought forward for consideration this fall.

3 AGENDA ITEM NO. 14-02-8 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

FEBRUARY 14, 2014 ACTION REQUESTED – DISCUSSION

FY 2015 PRELIMINARY PROGRAM BUDGET File Number 1500400

Introduction

The process of developing the FY 2015 Program Budget is under way. This report provides a summary of the current funding environment and highlights of the Overall Work Program (OWP) component of the FY 2015 Program Budget. The Executive Committee is asked to review and provide comments on the proposed FY 2015 Program Budget work elements for Planning and Operations.

Discussion

The SANDAG Program Budget includes a summary of the agency’s overall authority and mandates, detailed work element descriptions, the Administration and Board budgets, the TransNet Program, the Capital Program, and a summary of the agency’s personnel and organizational structure. Included in the Program Budget is the OWP, which is a federally-required document describing regional planning activities relating to the funding of transportation infrastructure.

The first step in the development of the annual Program Budget is to update the Strategic Goals and the Areas of Emphasis (Attachment 1). The Strategic Goals are long-term areas of achievement that change minimally on an annual basis. The Areas of Emphasis – designed to support the Strategic Goals – are updated each year to highlight structural changes or particular areas of focus for the coming year. The Areas of Emphasis updates for FY 2015 are relatively minor; they continue to emphasize Sustainable Development and Sustainable Mobility as key planning areas and support the agency’s Regional Operations and Services initiatives.

Attachment 2 provides a summary description of the objectives for each of the proposed work elements, categorized by Area of Emphasis. The TransNet Program and Capital Program components will be addressed in more detail in the March 2014 Draft Program Budget document.

Current Funding Environment

Local Sales Tax Revenue – More than half of the recurring planning revenue that funds the OWP comes from sales tax-based sources (Transportation Development Act and TransNet). Through the first two quarters of the current fiscal year (FY 2014), sales tax revenue received from the State Board of Equalization was approximately 4 percent higher than revenue received during the same period last year. SANDAG, working cooperatively with staff from the County of San Diego and the two transit agencies, continues to project 5 percent growth over FY 2013 actual receipts, with preliminary projections of 4 percent growth in FY 2015. More details regarding revenue estimates will be brought to the Board of Directors later this month.

The positive growth in sales tax receipts is consistent with the SANDAG expectation that revenue increases will occur as the economy begins to experience job growth, which has gradually occurred nationwide and locally during the past three fiscal years. Although the economic turnaround has been slow and sporadic, most economists expect the national economy to continue to expand between 2 and 3 percent during calendar year 2014, consistent with the trend established since the end of the Great Recession. The expected slow growth shows that the economy is likely to continue to face challenges during the next couple of years.

Federal and State Revenue – Federal and state recurring revenues comprise the remainder of the flexible annual funding for the OWP. The revenue projections are essentially flat based on preliminary estimates received from the state and federal governments, and are subject to both the state and federal governments approving their annual budgets. These projections are consistent with the recent passage of the spending bill by Congress, and are subject to more specific allocations expected to appear in the Federal Register.

Contingency Reserve – The ending balance of the uncommitted Contingency Reserve as of June 30, 2013, was approximately $7.1 million. The uncommitted balance represents approximately 14 percent of the FY 2014 OWP Budget, which exceeds the minimum target of 5 percent, as required by SANDAG Board Policy.

Highlights of the Proposed FY 2015 OWP

The proposed FY 2015 OWP includes the continuation or completion of several significant work efforts and the start of several new activities, summarized below and in more detail in Attachment 2 (work element numbers are shown in parentheses):

• Continue with the second full year of the development of San Diego Forward: The Regional Plan (31020), including the preferred revenue constrained transportation network, air quality analysis (31006), social equity analyses, and preparation of the draft Regional Plan and draft environmental impact report; continue to implement public outreach strategies; and finalize prior planning initiatives related to the 2050 Regional Transportation Plan and its Sustainable Communities Strategy (2050 RTP/SCS).

• Support the development of the Regional Plan, publish the 2014 regional population estimates, further expanding active transportation sensitivity in the activity-based model (ABM), update the regional forecasting model, continue the integration of the land use and transportation modeling frameworks, and improve model documentation (23000 and 23004).

• Continue implementation of the 2050 RTP/SCS, including detailed advanced planning for the new rail segments and advancing active transportation implementation strategies, including the Regional Bike Early Action Plan, active transportation education programs, and Safe Routes to Transit (33002, 33007, and 33210).

• Initiate the preparation of an Alternative Fuels Readiness Plan (32009) with grant funds from the California Energy Commission. The Alternative Fuels Readiness Plan will supplement the

2 Plug-In Electric Vehicle Readiness Plan completed by SANDAG in FY 2014 and will outline obstacles and opportunities for alternative fuel vehicle types beyond plug-in electric vehicles.

• Advance the integration of Geographic Information Services (GIS) data, model output, and capital/operational project information into visualization products and services to support information sharing, improved storytelling capabilities, agency outreach, and transparency (23006).

• Continue Criminal Justice research efforts, such as evaluation of the county’s implementation of the state’s Public Safety Realignment Program, and tracking outcome measures for projects related to reducing juvenile delinquency, victimization, and support of at-risk youth populations (23450, 23500).

• Advance regional Transportation Demand Management strategies, including deployment of an updated iCommute Program Management Tool; expansion of the Regional Vanpool Program; completion of a parking management toolbox; targeted employer outreach; and conducting a telework demonstration project (33107).

• Deploy significant enhancements to the existing 511 Automated Traveler Information System for the region, including the transition to a new vendor to provide an updated website, release of a mobile application, and evaluation of system performance (33105).

• Complete the transition of back office Compass Card systems and maintenance to the transit agencies (33106).

• Completion of the Intermodal Transportation Center strategy for the San Ysidro area (33305) and final recommendations for improving transportation alternatives in the Interstate 8 Corridor (33306).

• Completion of the transit oriented development policy/strategy (33004), and continued implementation of a Tribal Consultation Plan (34005) to involve tribal nations in the development of the Regional Plan.

• Implement a significant upgrade to the SANDAG financial system, along with an integrated contract management system.

• Initiate work on new grant-funded projects, including an analysis of methods for improving access to transportation services in Environmental Justice communities, focusing on City Heights (33212); development of an active transportation and demand management strategy for the Interstate 805 South Express Lanes Project (33107.10); and collaborating with San Diego International Airport to develop an Airport Transit Plan (31014).

• Continue operations of the State Route 125 toll road, including implementing plans for a centralized tolling system.

• Deploy additional Automated Regional Justice Information System mobile applications to increase information sharing and enhance GIS services, including GPS-enabled alerts and a mapping dashboard; collaborate on parole and probation information sharing throughout the region, and expand use of the graffiti tracking program.

3 Next Steps

SANDAG staff will meet with regional and federal funding agencies in early February to review priorities for the use of key federal planning funds for the FY 2015 Program Budget/OWP. In March, the Executive Committee will be asked to accept the Draft FY 2015 Program Budget (reflecting comments and direction received at the February 14, 2014, meeting), authorize distribution of the document to the funding agencies for review, and recommend that the Board of Directors accept the Draft FY 2015 Program Budget on March 28 for distribution to member agencies and other interested parties for review.

In April and May staff will provide additional reviews, as needed, to the Executive Committee. Board approval of the Final FY 2015 Budget is currently scheduled for May 23, 2014.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE AGENDA ITEM NO. 14-02-9 FEBURARY 14, 2014 ACTION REQUESTED – INFORMATION

FY 2013 AUDITED COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL File Number 8000180 FINANCIAL REPORT

Introduction

The independent certified public accounting audit firm of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. has concluded the annual audit of SANDAG for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) is attached as information (Attachment 2).

Discussion

The CAFR presents the financial position and activity of SANDAG and the three component units, which include the San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission, SourcePoint, and the Automated Regional Justice Information System. The auditors have expressed an unqualified (clean) opinion on these basic financial statements.

In compliance with Statement of Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 114, the auditor is required to communicate certain matters to the governing body (Attachment 1). These matters include significant audit findings related to qualitative aspects of accounting practices, difficulties encountered in performing the audit, corrected and uncorrected misstatements, disagreements with management, management representations, management consultations with other independent accountants, and other audit findings or issues.

In summary, the required communications letter states that no difficulties or disagreements were encountered by the auditors in dealing with management. Regarding corrected and uncorrected misstatements, there was one uncorrected misstatement, which was deemed immaterial to the financial statements, and therefore, acceptable to the auditors:

• Adjustment to record accrued payroll for approximately $876,500, which would have increased expenditures and payables – consistent with past practice, this amount was recorded in the next fiscal year (FY 2014).

The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) of the United States and Canada awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to SANDAG for its CAFR for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. This was the sixth consecutive year that SANDAG has received this prestigious award. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized CAFR. This report must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements.

A Certificate of Achievement only is valid for a period of one year. We believe that the FY 2013 CAFR will continue to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program requirements and have therefore submitted it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.

Honorable Chair and Members of the Board of Directors San Diego Association of Governments

We are pleased to present the basic financial statements of the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), for the Fiscal Year (FY) ended June 30, 2013. Responsibility for both the accuracy of the data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures, rests with SANDAG. To the best of our knowledge and belief, the enclosed data is accurate in all material respects and is reported in a manner designed to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of SANDAG. Also included herein is other supplementary information. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the SANDAG financial activities have been included.

The comprehensive annual financial report is presented in three sections: introductory, financial, and statistical. The introductory section includes this letter of transmittal, a list of the SANDAG Board of Directors, a list of the SANDAG executive staff, and SANDAG organization chart. The financial section consists of the independent auditors’ report, the management’s discussion and analysis, basic financial statements, notes to the basic financial statements, the required supplementary information, and supplementary information.

Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. has issued an unqualified (“clean”) opinion on the SANDAG financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

Reporting Entity

SANDAG is the region’s Council of Governments (COG). Local elected officials throughout the United States have joined together to form similar COGs to deal cooperatively with issues which go beyond jurisdictional boundaries, such as transportation, growth management, environmental quality, and public facility needs. SANDAG is a statutorily created agency, codified in California state law. Voting among the agency’s 18 cities and county government is based upon both membership and the population of each jurisdiction, providing for an equitable representation of the region’s residents. Caltrans, the United States Department of Defense, the San Diego Unified Port District, San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS), North County Transit District (NCTD), San Diego County Water Authority, Imperial County, the Southern California Tribal Chairmen’s Association,

i and Mexico (Consulate General of Mexico) are nonvoting advisory members of SANDAG.

Comprehensive Planning Organization to the San Diego Association of Governments, to better reflect the agency’s purpose. In 2003, Senate Bill 1703 (Peace, 2002), as amended by Assembly Bill 361 (Huffman, 2011), called for the consolidation of certain MTS and NCTD transit functions into SANDAG. SANDAG is now responsible for long-range transit planning, programming, project development, and construction of transportation projects in the region. This structure is intended to streamline regional decision making to improve the transportation system, protect open space and habitat, bolster our infrastructure, and sustain our quality of life.

The San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission is a blended component unit of SANDAG and therefore, is considered part of the SANDAG primary government. The SANDAG Board of Directors also serves as the Commission’s Board of Directors. The Commission is responsible for the implementation and administration of transportation improvement programs funded by the San Diego countywide half-percent sales tax. This tax became effective on April 1, 1988, as a result of the passage of Proposition A – The San Diego County Transportation Improvement Program, known as TransNet. The sales tax funds were used for highway, public transit, local street and road improvements, bicycle and pedestrian facilities, and administration. In November 2004, the voters of San Diego County extended the half-cent sales tax another 40 years to 2048. The extension of TransNet will help SANDAG continue to implement the region’s transportation program, as well as provide funding for bicycle, pedestrian, and neighborhood safety projects; major corridor capital projects; environmental mitigation projects; smart growth projects; local street and road projects; transit system projects; and provide the funding to operate the new transit systems. The 2004, ordinance includes a mandate that an Independent Taxpayer Oversight Committee (ITOC) for TransNet be formed to provide an enhanced level of accountability for the expenditure of funds under the TransNet expenditure plan. The ITOC also will help ensure that all voter mandates are carried out as required and will develop recommendations for improvements to the financial integrity and performance of the program. The Commission is authorized to issue limited tax bonds payable from the sales tax receipts, the proceeds of which can be used to finance approved TransNet projects. The Commission has created a Plan of Finance (POF) for the TransNet program, which is updated at least annually. A summary of the most recent POF is provided near the end of this letter.

SANDAG bylaws require the Board of Directors to approve a preliminary budget no later than April 1 of each year, with final approval by June 30. The preliminary budget is distributed to the funding agencies in March of each year to acquire their formal comments and approval. The annual budget serves as the foundation for the SANDAG financial planning and control. The budget is prepared by function, including the Capital program, the Administration and Board budgets, the Overall Work Program (including all regional planning activities), and the TransNet program. Costs and funding are strictly appropriated between these four major components and carefully monitored and amended as necessary. Once the budget is formally approved, SANDAG Board Policy authorizes the Executive Director to enter into agreements not currently incorporated in the budget and make other modifications to the budget in an amount up to $100,000 cumulatively per project per fiscal year, so long as the overall budget remains in balance. The Executive Director has further delegated budget transfers with no budgetary impact or significant project delay to an Executive Team member and the Director of Finance within the same project and up to $50,000 between projects. Board Policy requires the Executive Director to report to the Board these actions taken by the Executive Director or his or her designee. The budget is monitored on an ongoing basis and

ii quarterly progress reports are generated at all levels, variances are analyzed, and corrective action is taken to align actual expenses and the budget as closely as possible. Budget to actual comparisons are provided in this report for each individual governmental fund for which an appropriated annual budget has been adopted.

Geography

The San Diego region is nestled in the most southwest corner of the United States. It is a region filled with beautiful landscapes, a diversified economy, and an unmatched quality of life for its three million residents. About the size of the State of Connecticut, the region encompasses 4,255 square miles, extending 70 miles along the Pacific Coast from the international border to Orange County, and inland 75 miles to Imperial County. Riverside and Orange Counties form our region’s northern boundary.

The topography of the region varies from broad coastal plains to fertile inland valleys and mountain ranges to the east, rising to an elevation of 6,500 feet. The eastern slopes of these mountains form the rim of the Anza-Borrego Desert and the Imperial Valley. The Cleveland National Forest occupies much of the interior portion of the region. The climate is Mediterranean in the coastal and valley areas, where most of the population and resources are located. Average annual rainfall on the coastal plain is approximately ten inches. The San Diego region also is one of the most biologically diverse areas in the nation.

Cultural and Educational Attractiveness

The San Diego region has matured as a center for culture and education. San Diegans now boast about its two Tony Award-winning theaters, The Globe Theatre and La Jolla Playhouse. In addition, with the San Diego Opera, the San Diego Symphony, and more than 90 museums for the enjoyment of both locals and visitors, the region has an abundance of cultural activities. Higher education is provided through numerous colleges and universities. The University of California, San Diego is internationally recognized for excellence in higher education and scientific research.

San Diego State University is the region’s oldest and largest higher education institution. The University of San Diego, a private institution, has a highly respected law school; and California State University, San Marcos is the region’s fastest-growing college both in students and curricula.

The San Diego region continues to be a premier destination for visitors from all over the world. The region’s warm climate, proximity to Mexico, and abundant facilities and attractions power the visitor industry. The region has hosted the 1988, 1998, and 2004, Super Bowls, and the 1998, World Series. The San Diego Convention Center’s size, bayside location, and proximity to the popular Gaslamp district in Downtown San Diego enable the region to compete with Los Angeles and San Francisco in attracting the nation’s largest conventions and trade shows. In addition, San Diego now has a baseball-only ballpark located in downtown San Diego, which is serving as another visitor magnet and is stimulating a billion-dollar renaissance in the surrounding area.

iii Economic Summary and Outlook

Continued Uncertainty and Slow Growth

Monitoring the economy’s rebound since the end of the Great Recession (July 2009) has been like watching a movie you have seen many times before only in slow motion; the rebound, during past recessions, could be measured in months, not years. In other words, the United States and local economy are moving in the correct direction only in painfully slow motion, unfortunately as expected.

The United States economy approaches 2014, with a poor showing during the third quarter (2013); Gross Domestic Product (GDP) rising 1.4 percent compared with the same quarter last year. The long-run rate of growth for GDP is about 3.2 percent annually. Again, the consensus short-term outlook over the next few quarters is for GDP growth above 2.0 percent, and for all of 2014, to rise above 2.5 percent. These consensus outlooks are below forecasts provided over the past three years, which had GDP growth at or above 3.0 percent. The consensus forecast has become progressively less optimistic.

To achieve a GDP growth rate of 2.5 percent or higher requires more jobs and jobs of a higher quality than has been produced over this past year. Nationwide, payroll job growth for 2013, is expected to average about 175,000 jobs per month, slightly below last year’s 183,000 jobs per month. The continued decline in the unemployment rate over the past few years has been a pleasant surprise, both nationwide and locally, given that job growth has continued to be weak. The nation’s unemployment rate has declined to 7.2 percent in September 2013, from 7.9 percent one year ago, reflecting the job gains as well as a shrinking labor force. Since the start of the Great Recession (December 2007) the labor force participation rate has declined nearly four percentage points, reducing the labor force by nearly six million people; meaning that job growth and leaving the labor force contributed equally to the decline in the unemployment rate. In addition, the median length of time people remain unemployed continued at seven months. More than 30 percent of the people without jobs have been unemployed for one year or longer, leading to growing concerns about their ability to reenter the labor force.

Additional concerns about the recovery include weakness in wage rate growth and the average number of hours worked; these trends, combined with the types of jobs (part-time, temporary with low pay) that have been created since the end of the recession have contributed to keeping real per-capita disposable income stagnant for the past three years, which in turn has led to weak growth in consumer spending, which makes up more than 70 percent of the economy. Additional economic headwinds are expected from the temporary fix to the federal government shutdown and raising the debt ceiling to allow for more borrowing. Lastly, although the European recession appears over, helping to stabilize international trade, it is not clear how robust the turnaround will be.

Locally, the San Diego economy has followed much the same path as the national economy during and after the Great Recession, although direct comparisons are not possible for the current year because the local job numbers are not adjusted to reflect seasonal variations. However, there have been some important differences. The local labor market shed 107,300 payroll jobs between December 2007, and July 2009. At the trough, the local economy had lost 7.8 percent of its total jobs since the start of the recession, whereas the national economy shed 6.1 percent over the same

iv time period. Locally, at the trough of the recession the aggregate number of local jobs was at about the same level as recorded in January 2001. The most recent local employment data that has been adjusted to remove reporting errors is through the end of 2012. On a year-over-year comparison basis, as of December 2012, local employment has increased by 25,400 payroll jobs, a rise of 2.1 percent, higher than the 1.6 percent pace recorded nationwide.

Although the recession may be behind us technically, a majority of economists are forecasting a modest recovery over the next few years followed by a relatively slow expansion through 2017. In the near-term, GDP is expected to expand in the two to three percent range; levels that are historically low for a recovery from a deep recession. For example, following the deep 1981 to 1982 recession in which GDP shrunk by 2.9 percent from peak to trough, the economy bounced right back – growing 4.5 percent in 1983, and 7.2 percent in 1984. The 2007 to 2009 Great Recession has been twice as deep and the rebound about half as robust as the 1981 to 1982 downturn. If the nation’s GDP increases at the expected 2 to 3 percent per year, it would likely be 2017, or beyond before the unemployment rate falls to the prerecession level of about 5.5 percent.

California Budget Outlook

One of the most talked about and written about problems in California over the past decade has been the state’s budget deficit. The performance of regional economies in the state, including San Diego’s, is linked directly to the State of California’s fiscal health. Consequently, the state’s past budget crisis has likely contributed to the slower rates of economic growth San Diego has recorded over the past few years, but this trend seems to be improving.

Since 2003, the state has faced budget shortfalls. Various steps have been taken to reduce the deficit, including refinancing the accumulated debt, taking advantage of lower interest rates, reforming the workers’ compensation program, and raising the sales tax rate one percentage point. More recently, in November 2012, the California voters approved the Education Protection Account, or Proposition 30, that temporarily increases the state sales and use tax, and personal income tax rates for upper-income taxpayers. These actions, combined with holding the line or reducing expenditures, have allowed the state to reach a point where its underlying expenditures and revenues are roughly in balance.

As a result, the State Legislative Analyst’s Office forecast now is $3.2 billion higher than the administration's (Governor’s) May 2013 revision for 2011, to 2012; 2012, to 2013; and 2013, to 2014; combined. After years of "boom and bust" budgeting, California's leaders now have the opportunity to build a budget for future years that gives the state more choices about how to build reserves in times of healthy revenue growth, prioritize future state spending, and pay off past debts. This outlook, if it proves to be accurate, would also help stabilize local government budgets.

San Diego’s Economy and Economic Outlook

Historically, the San Diego region has enjoyed strong economic growth, keeping up with, and at times, outpacing the State of California and the nation, as shown in Figure 1. According to the Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Economic Analysis, the San Diego region’s Gross Regional Product (GRP), an estimate of the total value of goods and services produced in a region for 2012, the latest year available, was $177.4 billion measured in current dollars. After adjusting for the effects of inflation, the local GRP rose 2.7 percent during 2012, the third year of increases after

v declining during 2009. Although the local economy did not contract as much as the state and nation during 2009, its GRP growth rate over the past three years has been about equal (2011) or below (2010 and 2012) both the state and nation.

Over the longer term, the strength of the local economy is due, in part, to significant changes that took place during the second-half of the decade in the 1990s. The San Diego region underwent a fundamental restructuring process after a period of recession in the early 1990s, which increased economic diversity and strengthened local industry. A restructured local economy emerged from the recession, one better able to adapt and compete in the global marketplace. The economy is now centered on nationally and internationally competitive industries, and a growing recognition that our region must supply the linkages and infrastructure that support these industries.

Today’s leading sectors are no longer located solely in the defense and other traditional manufacturing industries, as they were in the past. As a result, local economic policies have adapted and now focus on a broader range of sectors that drive the local economy – known as traded employment clusters. Traded employment clusters are the engines of economic activity, capable of setting the pace of economic growth, producing high-paying jobs, and producing a rising standard of living for the region. Traded employment clusters are groups of complementary, competing, and interrelated industries that drive wealth creation in a region, primarily through the export of goods and services. These traded clusters have led the local economic resurgence, and some of them contain many of our highest paying job opportunities that are part of the region’s emerging growth technology businesses, including biotechnology, medical instruments, telecommunications, software, semiconductors and computer networks, defense manufacturing, and clean technology (previously labeled environmental technology).

The San Diego region has become a prominent example of an emerging “high-tech” economy in the nation. San Diego now exhibits characteristics which include decreased reliance on traditional durable goods manufacturing and increased reliance on knowledge-based and other wealth-generating activities. Because of the changing and volatile nature of both the state and national economies, traded clusters are likely to continue to be the leaders in economic growth. The region has many of the characteristics and opportunities necessary for these important clusters to succeed: excellent education and training facilities, world class research institutes, mild climate,

vi coastal location, innovative culture, and an increasingly skilled labor force. All of these factors help create synergy between companies and provide the labor and skills necessary for traded clusters to prosper.

Today, business services, skilled trades, research and development, and highly technical sectors (all embodied in the region’s traded employment clusters) have become the driving forces behind economic development and provide an opportunity to increase our standard of living, as measured by real per capita income. Figure 2 shows the trend for real per capita income since 1991, and compares San Diego against both the State of California and the nation. As Figure 2 shows, the local standard of living grew quickly following the end of the local downturn in 1994, fueled by the surge in high-tech employment growth and began to level off in 2000, as growth in technology companies and jobs slowed. Job growth since 2000, has been sufficient to keep the region’s unemployment rate low (through 2007); however, the growth has not been well balanced between high- and low-paying jobs, and far more jobs are being created that are low-paying, resulting in a much different trend for the standard of living since 2000. Between 1994 and 2000, the local standard of living, measured by the growth in real per capita income, increased nearly 23.0 percent, out pacing both the state and nation. Between 2000 and 2007, the growth rate slowed to 6.0 percent before falling during 2009, and growing slowly through 2011. Real per capita income is about the same in 2011, as it was in early 2000. Over the last 20 years, 1991 and 2011, real per capita income increased more than 25.0 percent, from $37,300 in 1991, to $46,800 in 2011, with nearly all of increase occurring during the late 1990s.

Employment and Wages

The latest employment data available from the state’s Employment Development Department is for August 2013, and shows that there are 1.277 million payroll jobs in the San Diego region, down 44,300 jobs, since the start of the recession in December 2007. So, about 40 percent of the payroll jobs lost during the Great Recession have not been recovered.

vii

Over this past year (August 2012 thru August 2013), according to the preliminary data from the state’s Employment Development Department, the region has added 14,800 payroll jobs, an increase that is 37 percent below the rise recorded during a similar period last year. The job gains have been broad based with most sectors increasing. Over the year, the largest job increases were reported in Education and Health Services (up 5,300 jobs); Leisure and Hospitality Services (up 4,700 jobs); Professional and Business Services (up 4,400 jobs); trade, transportation, and utilities (up 3,400 jobs); and construction (up 700 jobs). This data is preliminary and will be subjected to the Employment Development Department’s annual adjustments in about March 2014. At times in the past, including last year, these adjustments have been large.

Figure 3 shows what has happened with job growth over a longer period, comparing the average annual employment levels during 2002 and 2012. Due to the effects of the Great Recession, total industry employment in the San Diego region during 2012, is 2.3 percent higher than it was during 2002. Due to the effects of the Great Recession, San Diego’s growth over the past 10 years is about equal to the level the region experienced on an annual basis before the recession.

The latest wage data for industry workers in the San Diego region is 2012. As shown in Figure 4, the average wage per industry employee in current 2012 dollars for the San Diego region is $54,000. After declines between 2001 through 2003, the real average wage per industry worker in the region began to increase, rising 6.0 percent between 2003 and 2007. Wages fell during the worst years of the Great Recession 2008 and 2009, but have increased since 2010. Over the entire period, 2000 through 2012, the real average wage per industry worker has increased about 4.2 percent. The lack of growth in real wages is due to a combination of inflation, slow job growth as a result of the Great Recession, and a change in the mix of jobs generated by the local economy.

Demographics

According to California State Department of Finance’s Population and Housing Estimates for January 1, 2013, the San Diego region is home to more than 3.15 million people, the second largest county in California. The latest race and ethnicity data available from the state, displayed in Figure 5, show the largest majority of the population is non-Hispanic White (47.5%). However, the Hispanic population has been growing rapidly, increasing by nearly 285,000 people from 2000 to 2012, and currently represents 32.9 percent of the total population in 2012. Of the 2012 total population, 4.4 percent identify themselves as non-Hispanic Black, and the remaining 15.2 percent of the population identify themselves as non-Hispanic Asian, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander, American Indian, or multi-race. The 2012 median household income in the region is estimated to be nearly $70,000; with the median age at 34.8 years old.

Venture Capital

The high-tech sectors driving the region’s economic prosperity rely, in part, on venture capital funds to help them perform research to produce leading edge technologies. San Diego continues to be a favored area for venture capital investment, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers quarterly MoneyTree survey. In comparison with multicounty and multistate regions, San Diego County posted the eighth highest dollar volume of venture capital investments during the first three quarters of 2013, receiving nearly $0.587 billion. The amount received during the first three quarters of 2013 is nearly 40 percent less than the region received during the same three quarter period during 2012. Since 1995, the first year PricewaterhouseCoopers began publishing the MoneyTree report, the region has received more than $20.0 billion in venture capital investments, with about half going to fund biotechnology companies and research.

International Trade

The total dollar value of international trade moving through the San Diego customs district reached $56.5 billion during 2012, up 7.2 percent from 2011. Imports represent nearly 65.0 percent of the total, with exports accounting for the remaining 35.0 percent. The value of traded goods moving through the customs district expanded rapidly after the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) between the United States, Canada, and Mexico passed, rising 134.0 percent between 1994 and 2000. The rate of growth slowed after September 11, 2001, due to a significant increase in security at all ports of entry. Trade activity picked up between 2003 and 2007, rising nearly 52.0 percent. More recently, trade slowed during 2008 and 2009, impacted by the Great Recession

x and has increased 27.0 percent between 2009 and 2012, the last year for which data is available. The rise in the value of trade during 2012, pushed it above its previous peak reached during 2007 (trade values not adjusted for inflation).

Expanding trade under the NAFTA and the Maquiladora industry in the San Diego/Baja California border region largely account for the San Diego region’s success in international trade. By providing for a freer exchange of goods with Mexico (and Canada), NAFTA has had significant beneficial impacts on the local economy.

Following the passage of NAFTA, the value of San Diego’s international trade shifted into a higher gear and began to expand more rapidly. Mexico continues to be, by far, San Diego’s largest international trading partner, accounting for more than 85 percent of the value of two-way trade. While exports to countries other than Mexico have increased 12 fold since 1993, exports to Mexico have also increased rapidly from pre-NAFTA $4.4 billion in 1993, to $18.9 billion in 2012; exports through the customs district to Mexico account for nearly 95 percent of total exports. A similar trend for imports has also occurred, imports from Mexico through the customs district increased $29.8 billion in 2012, from a pre-NAFTA $5.3 billion in 1993, while imports from other countries increased from $946 million to $6.8 billion over the same time period. The United States Department of Commerce reports that the top four export categories in 2012 account for more than 50 percent of total exports, including computer and electronic products (19.1%); fabricated metal products (11.8%); transportation equipment (11.2%); and machinery, except electrical (10.8%). Imports, on the other hand, are dominated by two categories making up nearly 60 percent, including computer and electronic products (36.3%); and transportation equipment (22.5%).

Real Estate

The slowdown in the housing market has dominated the economic news in San Diego since early 2006. After more than doubling to nearly $520,000 between January 2000, and April 2006, the median price for a single-family home in San Diego fell nearly 42.0 percent by May 2009, and has since begun to show signs of stabilizing. According to the S&P Case–Shiller Home Price Index, the median priced home in San Diego rose nearly 30 percent from May 2009, through July 2012, much of the increase has been in the past year, with index rising 20 percent since July 2012. There are signs that this pace is beginning to slow, due in part to the rise in mortgage rates over the past year.

The number of new housing unit permits authorized in the region declined steadily from a peak of 18,314 units in 2003, to 2,946 units in 2009, a decline of nearly 85.0 percent. Since 2009, the number of permits authorized has been rising. During 2012, the last full year for which data is available, there were 5,666 housing units authorized. During the first eight months of 2013, 5,203 units have been authorized, exhibiting a pace slightly ahead of last year’s. Over the past decade there has been a shift in the type of units authorized, away from single-family units towards multifamily units. During 2002, nearly 36 percent of the units authorized were attached units and the remainder was single-family or detached units. The attached unit proportion has been above 50 percent since 2004. During the first nine months of 2013, about 22 percent of the housing units authorized have been for single-family units and 88 percent have been permits for attached units.

xi Retail Sales

Consumer expenditures nationwide contracted significantly during 2008 and 2009, as consumers moved away from consumption, paid down debt, increased their savings, and reduced spending supported by equity in their assets. It is normal for consumers to spend less during a recession, but the size of the contraction this time was unusually large, causing some economists to speculate that consumers may hesitate or not return to their past spending habits once the recession ends. There are three reasons cited for this abrupt change: first is the amount of consumer debt outstanding, second is the loss in wealth from falling home and stock prices (which during this past year has begun to correct itself), and third is the expectation that the recovery from the recession will be slow by historical standards keeping the unemployment rate high for a protracted period of time.

These concerns seem to be playing out, for example the rate of growth in GDP has been averaging about two percent during most of the recovery period; a rate too slow to repair all the economic damage caused by the Great Recession. To help address this slow growth, the Federal Reserve has once again stepped up its monetary policy actions, initiating Quantitative Easing 3, a plan to put more liquidity (funds) in the marketplace each month until the unemployment is below seven percent or inflation rises above three percent. As of September 2013, the unemployment rate has declined to 7.2 percent, but at least half of the cause of the decline since its peak above 10 percent has been frustrated job seekers leaving the labor force. The consensus forecast is for the economy to pick up momentum during the final quarter of 2013, coming off an unexpected sluggish third quarter that ushered in a decline in job growth from nearly 200,000 jobs created each month nationwide, to about 150,000 jobs created on average each month during the third quarter of the 2013. There is concern that the economy is again staling, for example, the Federal Reserve recently postponed any tapering of its monetary and fiscal simulative actions that have been in place over the past year, despite announcing earlier this year that they would begin to unwind the stimulus program during September 2013. Additional uncertainty in the economy was caused by the 16-day government shutdown and the last minute deal forged to increase the federal government debt ceiling so it could continue to pay its bills and other obligations. Congress will revisit these issues in early 2014, creating additional uncertainty for the economic outlook.

Locally, the SANDAG sales tax receipts have increased during each of the last three fiscal years, rising 8.4 percent in FY 2011, 7.1 percent in FY 2012, and 4.3 percent during FY 2013. These increases come after suffering declines in each of the previous three Fiscal Years (2008 to 2010) falling 17.6 percent over the three-year period. Although perhaps not all of the problems brought on by the Great Recession are behind us, there are some recent encouraging signs locally. The San Diego region has now logged year over year growth in each quarter since the end of the Great Recession in July 2009. One of the sectors hit hardest during the recession, new auto sales, has been one of the best performers during the recent turnaround. Mindful of the headwinds and uncertainty facing the national and local economy; however, we are projecting a 5.0 percent growth in sales tax receipts during FY 2014.

xii Major Budget Initiatives and TransNet Plan of Finance Update

The proposed FY 2014 Program Budget will see the continuation or completion of several significant work efforts and the start of several new activities, as summarized below:

• Increase implementation efforts resulting from commitments of the approved 2050 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and its Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS), including advanced planning for the new rail segments and advancing Active Transportation implementation strategies (33002, 33007, and 33210). Completion of the final transit-oriented development policy/strategy (33004) and implementation of a Tribal Consultation Plan (34005) to involve tribal nations in the development of San Diego Forward: The Regional Plan is also proposed.

• Conduct a comprehensive public engagement process for the development of San Diego Forward: The Regional Plan. Development of the Regional Plan (31020) also includes the update of project evaluation criteria and plan performance measures to develop land use/ transportation scenarios.

• Further model development, including the automated integration of the Activity-Based Model and Production, Exchange, and Consumption Allocation System Model; completion of the Commercial Vehicle Model; and developing a Dynamic Traffic Assignment Model for use in the development of San Diego Forward: The Regional Plan (23000 and 23004).

• With the completion of preliminary planning and design of the Intermodal Transportation Center at Lindbergh Field (31011), the Destination Lindbergh Project will move on to advanced planning work for a 2015 first-phase connection between the Washington Street or Palm Street Trolley station, with the planned on-airport shuttle and completion of the conceptual design for the Interstate 5 (I-5) ramp connectors.

The Federal Transit Administration is anticipated to issue a Record of Decision in mid-2014 (1257001).

• Construction of the East County Bus Maintenance Facility is scheduled to begin in 2014. This project will provide for an operations and maintenance facility for up to 120 vehicles used by MTS (1049600).

• Continued construction of two High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes on I-805 North from State Route 52 to Carroll Canyon Road, including a south-facing direct access ramp at Carroll Canyon Road (1280511).

• Continued construction of the two HOV lanes in the median of I-805 South from Palomar Street to State Route 94, including a north-facing direct access ramp at Palomar Street (1280510).

• Completion of the South Bay Bus Maintenance Facility is scheduled for 2014. This facility will accommodate maintenance of Bus Rapid Transit vehicles along the I-805 corridor (1201513).

• Completion of the I-15 Bus Rapid Transit Sabre Springs Parking Structure is scheduled for 2014. This structure will accommodate up to 500 cars. The station improvements also include 150 surface parking spaces and 8 bus staging areas (1201505).

• Construction of the State Route 76 East Project is scheduled to begin during fall 2013. The project will widen the conventional highway to four lanes, from Mission Road to I-15 (1207606).

• Construction of the I-5/Genesee Avenue Project is scheduled to begin during fall 2013. The project will widen the Genesee Avenue Bridge across I-5 and add an auxiliary lane on southbound I-5 between Sorrento Valley Road and Genesee Avenue (1200506).

• Construction of SR 11 from State Route 905 to Enrico Fermi Road will complete the first phase of this planned toll road and provide a more direct access route to the state highway system from the California Highway Patrol Truck Inspection Facility near the Otay Mesa Port of Entry (1201101).

The TransNet POF is updated as necessary, but at least on an annual basis as part of the overall SANDAG budgeting process. The updated POF is reviewed by ITOC and the SANDAG Transportation Committee, and approved by the Board of Directors. The most recent POF was approved by the Board of Directors on November 16, 2012. This update of the POF focused on the major changes in the last year and emphasized the adjustments in recent costs and revenues and their effects on the long-term financial projections for the program. The POF update confirmed that the action taken in

xv the past three years to keep all of the active TransNet projects on their current schedules can be maintained with very similar results. The POF approved by the Board of Directors allows for continued progress on the TransNet EAP. The next POF update is scheduled during the first half of FY 2014.

Policy Update

SANDAG has been issuing debt in order expedite Board identified TransNet Early Action Program projects. At its October 25, 2013, Board of Directors meeting, a new Debt Policy was approved. The purpose of the Policy is to establish guidelines for the issuance and management of current and future SANDAG debt. The Debt Policy is designed to inform decision making and provide transparency to SANDAG financial market participants and the general public. The Debt Policy confirms the commitment of the Board of Directors, management, staff, and other decision makers to adhere to sound financial management practices.

6 Management's Discussion and Analysis

As management of the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), we provide this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of SANDAG for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. The intent of this analysis is to assist the readers of the SANDAG financial statements in better understanding the overall financial condition of the agency. The information presented here should be considered in conjunction with the information provided in the letter of transmittal.

Financial Highlights

. SANDAG reported net position of $299,255,807. Of this amount, net position (deficit) of ($234,734,298) is considered unrestricted. A significant factor related to the net position balance is the issuance of $1,370,585,000 in bonds issued in fiscal years 2008, 2011, and 2012 as part of the Early Action Program to expedite congestion relief projects focusing on jump starting construction of the region’s top priority transportation infrastructure projects.

. The SANDAG total net position decreased by $28,922,344 in fiscal year 2013. This decrease is primarily due to higher TransNet program expenses utilizing proceeds from the bond issuances and debt service payments, offset by an increase in capital assets.

. As of the close of the current fiscal year, the SANDAG governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $718,578,426. Of this total amount, $713,393,281 is restricted for debt service and project spending, $8,797,092 as non-spendable prepaid items, and $3,611,947 as an offsetting unassigned fund deficit.

. The SANDAG total debt balance at the close of the current fiscal year remains approximately the same comparing to that of fiscal year 2012. This is primarily due to the reclassification of the loss on refunding of $20,083,124 from long-term debt to deferred outflow of resources as part of the GASB 65 implementation in fiscal year 2013 offset by bond principal repayments of $18,640,000 and the $1,620,000 principal pay-down of commercial paper. At the end of the current fiscal year, San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission (the Commission) had a total debt outstanding of $1,241,932,472, and State Route 125 toll road fund (SR 125 fund) had a debt balance of $100,572,989 TIFIA Notes with $58,162,792 of unamortized fair value debt adjustment.

Overview of the Financial Statements

The SANDAG annual financial report consists of five parts: management’s discussion and analysis; basic financial statements; required supplementary information; an optional section that presents combining statements and additional supplementary information; and a statistical section which furnishes relevant statistical data of the agency.

Management’s discussion and analysis provided here are intended to serve as an introduction to the SANDAG basic financial statements. The SANDAG basic financial statements consist of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements; 2) fund financial statements; and 3) the notes to financial statements.

Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the SANDAG finances, in a manner similar to a private sector business.

7

The statement of net position presents financial information on all of the SANDAG assets and liabilities, and deferred inflows/outflows of resources, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of SANDAG is improving or deteriorating.

The statement of activities presents information showing changes in the SANDAG net position during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported when the underlying events giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods.

Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of SANDAG that are principally supported by sales taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of SANDAG include general government, net of cost recovery, modeling and research, criminal justice, planning and forecasting, sustainable development, smart mobility programs and services, intermodal planning and implementation, internal and external coordination, bicycle facilities, Independent Taxpayer Oversight Committee, major corridor capital projects, major corridor environmental mitigation, local project environmental mitigation, local street improvements, smart growth, new major corridor transit operations, transit system improvements, transit capital contributions, and interest on long-term debt.

The business-type activities of SANDAG include the Service Bureau, which provides informational and technical services to member agencies, nonmember government agencies, private organizations, and individuals to enhance the quality and extent of demographic, economic, transportation, land use, criminal justice, and other information maintained in the Regional Information System; the Interstate 15 FasTrak® program, which allows solo drivers to pay a toll to use the express lanes on Interstate 15; and the State Route 125 (SR 125) toll road operations, an 11.2 mile limited access highway in the County of San Diego.

The government-wide financial statements include not only SANDAG itself (known as the primary government), but also a legally separate nonprofit corporation (SourcePoint), which provides regional information services and technical assistance to private clients and public agencies; and a legally separate Joint Powers Agency Automated Regional Justice Information System (ARJIS), which provides a regional complex criminal justice enterprise information system utilized by more than 50 local, state, and federal agencies in the San Diego region. Financial information for these component units is reported separately from the financial information presented for the primary government itself. The Commission, although also legally separate, functions for all practical purposes as a program of SANDAG, and therefore, has been reported as a blended component unit and included as an integral part of the primary government.

The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 25 to 26 of this report.

Fund financial statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. SANDAG, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of SANDAG are either governmental-type funds or proprietary funds.

8 Governmental funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in assessing a government's near-term financing requirements.

Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government's near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.

SANDAG maintains eight individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the general fund; the TransNet fund and the San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission sales tax projects fund; the capital projects fund; and the San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission debt service fund, which are considered to be major funds. Data from the three non-major funds which are general services fund, the fare media sales fund and Service Authority for Freeway Emergency Operations (SAFE) program fund, is combined into a single aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements in the combining and individual fund statements and schedules section of this report.

Proprietary funds. SANDAG maintains three proprietary funds. Proprietary funds can either be enterprise funds or internal service funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. SANDAG uses enterprise funds to account for its Interstate 15 FasTrak program, Service Bureau program, and the State Route 125 toll road operations.

Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for the SR 125 fund, which is considered to be a major fund. Data from the other two nonmajor proprietary funds are combined into a single aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor proprietary funds is provided in the form of combining statements in the combining and individual fund statements and schedules of this report.

The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 43 to 45 of this report.

Notes to the basic financial statements. The notes provide additional information that is necessary to acquire a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 47 to 92 of this report.

Other Information. In addition to the basic financial statements, required supplementary information can be found on pages 95 to 100 of this report.

The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with nonmajor governmental funds and proprietary funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information on pensions and OPEB. Combining and individual fund statements and schedules can be found on pages 102 to 106 of this report.

Government-Wide Overall Financial Analysis

As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. In the case of SANDAG, assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities by $299,255,807 at the close of the most recent fiscal year.

The majority of the SANDAG net position includes $452,803,299 net investment in capital assets. These capital assets are used or, in the case of the construction-in-progress, will be contributed to other governmental agencies, which will then be used to provide services to citizens and, therefore, are not available for future spending. A total of $64,135,998 is restricted for debt service, $1,210,668 for environmental mitigation, $15,761,136 for major maintenance, and $79,004 for project revenue. The remaining offsetting balance of net position is the unrestricted net deficit of $234,734,298.

Factors contributing to the unrestricted net deficit of $234,734,298 include debt activities of the Commission and the SR 125 fund. In fiscal year 2013, there is a total of $100,572,989 TIFIA notes payable with a fair value debt balance, net of amortization of $58,162,792 for the SR 125 fund. In fiscal year 2013, there is $1,241,932,472 of outstanding long-term debt of the Commission included in the statement of net position, which is offset by related balances of cash and investments from the debt proceeds of approximately $436,000,000 at June 30, 2013, due from other governments for debt proceeds passed through to another government, net of principal retirement for a balance of $43,611,447 and approximately $375,000,000 of cash and investments related to TransNet balances not yet requested by recipient agencies. The restricted liabilities are not available for spending as the long-term debt payable will be used to pay down outstanding commercial paper notes, which were issued to buy the North County Transit District (NCTD) Certificates of Participation (COP) investment. The restricted deposit payable is a NCTD deposit for commercial paper interest payments related to the COPs. Restricted net position includes $64,135,550 of resources restricted by the TransNet Ordinance that must be used for upcoming debt service payments on the outstanding sales tax revenue bonds and $1,210,668 of resources subject to externally imposed restrictions that must be used for environmental mitigation projects (EMP), $15,761,136 set aside for major maintenance of the SR 125 fund, and $79,004 restricted for project revenues.

11 Governmental activities. Governmental activities decreased the SANDAG net position by $26,778,769 which is due to total expenses of $489,125,868 exceeding total revenue of $463,839,459 by $25,286,409 combined with a transfer out of $1,492,360.

Key elements of the revenue and expense differences between fiscal year 2013 and fiscal year 2012 for governmental activities are as follows:

Total revenues increased by 10 percent or $42,235,992. Key factors in this increase are as follows:

. Charges for services revenue increased by $1,607,774, or 82 percent. This increase is primarily due to the SAFE program revenue incurred in fiscal year 2013. The SAFE program is responsible for purchasing, installing, operating, and maintaining a motorist aid system of call boxes. The SAFE program operation was transferred from the County of San Diego to SANDAG as of January 1, 2013, by the adoption of Assembly Bill No. 1572 (AB 1572) (Fletcher, 2012).

. Operating grants and contributions increased by $13,052,861. This increase is primarily due to the SAFE program fund cash balance of $14,507,396 transferred from the previous management entity to SANDAG in January 2013.

. Sales tax revenue increased by $11,095,678 or 4 percent, which is the result of an increase in TransNet and Transportation Development Act sales tax revenues received in fiscal year 2013 over fiscal year 2012.

. Investment earnings increased by $19,197,100 in fiscal year 2013, which is primarily the result of the annual derivative interest adjustment on the 2018 basis rate swaps.

Total expenses decreased by $979,018, or 0.2 percent, over the prior year. Key factors in this net decrease are as follows:

. TransNet program expenses decreased $20,806,184, or 16 percent which is primarily due to local streets improvements expense decrease of $20,727,090. This expense was based on recipient requests of TransNet funds for eligible costs, which were lower in fiscal year 2013 in relation to fiscal year 2012.

. Transit capital contributions decreased $2,191,426, or 0.8 percent, to $244,093,156. During the current fiscal year, $238,429,780 of completed construction projects were contributed to other government agencies responsible for public transportation and highway operations as follows: $66,117,692 to Caltrans, $139,721,280 to San Diego Metropolitan Transit System, $9,946,813 to California State Parks, $202,930 to NCTD, $44,956 to the Port of San Diego, $10,419,148 to the City of Encinitas, $576,528 to the City of San Diego, $457,357 to the City of Escondido, $590,108 to the City of San Marcos, $449,000 to the City of La Mesa, $169,429 to the City of Chula Vista, $4,003,387 to the City of Oceanside, and $5,731,152 to the City of Imperial Beach.

. Interest on long-term debt increased by $11,693,771, or 24 percent, which is primarily the result of interest expense incurred on the $420,585,000 sales tax revenue bonds issued in June 2012.

. A net increase of $10,324,821, or 15 percent, in other SANDAG governmental activities is the main result of the following:

12 o Internal and external coordination project expenses decreased by $1,304,987, or 18.4 percent, primarily as a result of expenses for a major effort of SR 125 acquisition planning completed in fiscal year 2012. There was no similar expense incurred in fiscal year 2013.

o SAFE program expenses of $11,216,566 were added in the current fiscal year when SANDAG began managing the SAFE program operations in January 2013. Of the total expenses, $9,847,407 was distributed to the various local cities that are members of the SAFE program as required by AB 1572.

o Modeling and Research project expenses increased by $552,590, or 14 percent, which is primarily due to the increased expenses for both the Activity-Based Model (ABM) Development project completed in fiscal year 2013 and the transportation studies project with increased project activities for data collection as a key component of the new ABM.

Business-type activities. Business-type activities decreased the SANDAG net position by $2,143,575, which is a result of total expenses of $36,507,711, exceeding total revenue of $32,871,776 by $3,635,935 offset by a transfer in of $1,492,360.

Key elements of the revenue and expense differences between fiscal year 2013 and fiscal year 2012 for business-type activities are as follows:

Total revenue for business-type activities increased $11,049,530, or 50 percent, in fiscal year 2013. Charges for services increased $12,367,577, or 60 percent, which is primarily the result of operations for six months of the SR 125 toll road in fiscal year 2012 comparing to operations for twelve months in fiscal year 2013. Utilization of the toll road increased substantially with the announcement of the SANDAG acquisition and with the lowering of toll rates by up to 40 percent, with the goal of easing congestion on Interstate 805 and local streets.

Total expenses for business-type activities increased $7,042,147, or 23 percent, in fiscal year 2013, which is primarily the result of operations for six months of the SR 125 toll road in fiscal year 2012 versus 12 months of operations in fiscal year 2013, operations of the I-15 FasTrak, and interest expenses.

14 Financial Analysis of the Government’s Funds

As noted earlier, SANDAG uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.

Governmental funds. The focus of the SANDAG governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the SANDAG financing requirements. In particular, unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.

As of the end of the fiscal year, the SANDAG governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $718,578,426. Of this total amount, $3,611,947 constitutes unassigned fund deficit. The remainder of the fund balance is either nonspendable or restricted.

The general fund is the chief general government operating fund of SANDAG. At the end of the current fiscal year, fund balance of the general fund was $11,601,914, and of this amount $59,670 is nonspendable prepaid items. The fund balance of the general fund during the current fiscal year increased $1,811,233. The key factor contributing to this increase is that actual revenue received was greater than expenses, resulting in an increase in flexible funding revenues deposited to the SANDAG contingency reserve, in accordance with the Board of Director’s (Board) Policy.

The TransNet fund is the recipient fund from the Commission (blended component unit); and the funds are subsequently transferred out to projects and general and administrative expenditures in the general fund, general services fund, and capital projects fund. At the end of the current fiscal year, the fund balance of the TransNet fund was $0. Revenues increased by $65,306,015, or 45 percent, which is due to a surge of Early Action Program (EAP) projects under the TransNet Extension Ordinance which was funded with use of the 2008, 2010, and 2012 bonds. Transfers out increased by $65,306,015, or 45 percent, which is also due to the EAP projects.

The general services fund had a fund balance of ($1,074,554). The fund balance of the general services fund decreased by $2,957,638, or 150 percent, during the current fiscal year primarily due to revenue recognition timing between fiscal year 2012 and fiscal year 2013 and therefore the revenue was unavailable.

The San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission sales tax projects special revenue fund had a fund balance of $416,962,635, all of which was restricted. This fund balance during the current fiscal year decreased by $30,235,516. Key factors contributing to this decrease are as follows:

. Total fund expenditures exceeded fund revenue by $69,091,244 in fiscal year 2013 due to increased EAP project costs offset by net interfund transfers in of $38,855,728, which is primarily due to transfers with the Commission’s debt service fund for the use of debt proceeds toward major corridor and major corridor environmental mitigation programs and for principal and interest payments. The bond proceeds transfers in of $116,197,279 are reduced by sales tax receipts transfers out of $77,341,551 that are transferred to the debt service fund for payment of debt principal and interest.

The capital projects fund had a fund balance of ($5,342,215). The fund balance of the capital projects fund decreased by $20,680,290, or 135 percent, during the current fiscal year primarily due to revenue recognition timing between fiscal year 2012 and fiscal year 2013 and $14,182,183 revenue was considered unavailable.

15

The Commission commercial paper and sales tax revenue bonds debt service fund (debt service fund) had a fund balance of $291,362,816, all of which was restricted. The fund balance of the debt service fund during the current fiscal year decreased by $101,996,439, or 26 percent, and key factors for this decrease are as follows:

. Expenditures in the current year exceeded revenues by $64,719,711 due to principal retirement of bonds and commercial paper and interest and other charges for the fiscal years 2008, 2011, and 2012 bonds, offset with the receipt of federal subsidy revenue for the 2010 Build America Bonds (BABs) net interest payment.

. Interfund transfers of $38,855,728 occurred, which is primarily due to transfers with the Commission’s special revenue fund as noted in the San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission sales tax projects special revenue fund above.

The prepaid fare media sales special revenue fund had a fund balance of $152,245. The fund balance of the prepaid fare media sales fund decreased during the current fiscal year by $2,699,945, primarily due to the timing difference between when revenue is recognized and when payments are made to the operators, as distributions are made on a cash basis.

The SAFE special revenue fund had a fund balance of $4,915,585. This special revenue fund was established in January 2013 by adoption of AB 1572. The fund balance constitutes the current fiscal year operating revenue of $1,614,190, $14,507,396 contributed from the previous SAFE program management entity and investment income of $10,565 offset by operating expense of $1,369,158 and distributions to program member cities of $9,847,407.

General Fund Budgetary Highlights

The general fund is the SANDAG primary operating fund and accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. During the fiscal year there was an increase between the original and final amended budget.

. Local Transportation Development Act (TDA) sales tax actual revenues were equivalent to the actual TDA receipts for 2013. Actual revenues represent the full SANDAG TDA claim received, which is the SANDAG portion of the total apportionment of available TDA sales tax revenues. SANDAG budgets TDA revenues to fund TDA-eligible project expenditures as a transfer to other funds, which is not always equal to the claim. In accordance with Board of Director Policy, any excess is considered savings and was deposited into the contingency reserve. General government actual expenditures, net of cost recovery were lower than the budgeted amount by $636,397. This is primarily related to the salary savings created by employee turnover and the resulting vacancies in those staff positions while recruiting efforts were underway.

. Actual transfers in were higher than the budget by $7,430. The budget of $148,500 is comprised of one-half of the Board of Directors budget and one-half of the general and administrative contingency budget. Actual Board of Directors expenditures coming in slightly above the budget comprises the variance.

. Actual transfers out were lower than the budget by $1,149,446, or 16 percent. The budget is

16 comprised of TDA funding expected to be transferred to other funds to pay for TDA-eligible project expenditures. Project expenditures in the general services fund, some of which are funded with TDA funds, were approximately 26 percent under budget. Some projects experienced delayed work efforts. Projects are initially funded using dedicated funds before TDA funding is applied, allowing TDA to be carried over for work efforts in 2014.

. Some of the more significant projects with this delay were the Regional Comprehensive Plan and Sustainable Communities Strategy Planning, Destination Lindbergh, Environmental Justice Analysis, 2050 RTP Transit Plan – Planning Studies, and the Series 13 Regional Growth Forecast.

Capital Asset and Debt Administration

Capital assets. The SANDAG investment in capital assets for its governmental activities as of June 30, 2013, amounts to $532,238,513 (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes primarily Construction-in-Progress (CIP) on projects for the benefit of the transit agencies, Caltrans, or other governmental agencies. Once completed, these projects are contributed to the other governmental agencies to reflect the other government’s custodial accountability for the operation and maintenance of the assets. Major projects under construction as of June 30, 2013, include:

. TransNet EAP Projects. These included major corridor projects for Interstate 5, Interstate 15, Interstate 805, State Route 76, the Mid-Coast Corridor, Blue and Orange Line Trolley Improvements, and the Transportation Project Biological Mitigation Fund. The CIP balance for EAP projects is $526.3 million and the overall cumulative fiscal year 2013 approved budget for EAP projects through fiscal year 2018 is $5.3 billion.

Additional information on the SANDAG capital assets can be found in Note III.C in the notes to the basic financial statements of this report.

Debt Administration

Long-term debt. At the end of the current fiscal year, SANDAG had total debt outstanding of $1,402,113,662, which is comprised of $814,265,000 of tax-exempt sales tax revenue bonds, $338,960,000 of Build America Bonds (BABs) (sales tax revenue bonds), net of the premium on the

17 2010 tax-exempt bonds of $735,874 and 2012 tax-exempt bonds of $54,191,598, loss on refunding the Series 2008 Bonds of $21,623,139, $33,780,000 of outstanding commercial paper notes, compensated absences payable of $12,075,709, and $158,735,781 of TIFIA notes net of unamortized fair value adjustment.

The SANDAG total debt increased by $2,450,724, which is primarily due to the reclassification of $21 million of loss on refunding offset by debt repayment of 18.6 million.

Additional information on the SANDAG long-term debt can be found in Note III.F in the notes to the basic financial statements of this report.

Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budgets

. In the Overall Work Program (OWP), which is the non-capital portion of the Board approved budget document, federal consolidated planning grant sources are expected to remain flat in fiscal year 2014. The Board approved total fiscal year 2014 OWP budget was split into two major components, with the new regional operations section approved for $46.7 million, and remaining projects in the OWP approved at $43.6 million. For the OWP, notable shifts in programs are the addition of San Diego Forward: The Regional Plan, which initiates a new cycle of the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and is consolidating previous planning efforts of the RTP, the Regional Comprehensive Plan, and the Sustainable Communities Plan into one comprehensive document. This $4.5 million planning initiative is a $1.1 million increase over comparable efforts in fiscal year 2013, and will continue into fiscal year 2015. Supporting this major planning initiative is an increase in travel demand and land use modeling efforts, which are budgeted to increase $1.3 million in fiscal year 2014. Funding and activities relating to Criminal Justice Research are planned to increase $1.1 million, and Transportation Demand Management program continues to expand, expecting an increase in activity of $1.5 million.

. Regional Operations groups together programs which require 24 hour monitoring, including the SR 125 Facilities Operations, SAFE, I-15 FasTrak, Freeway Service Patrol, and ARJIS. Fiscal year 2014 will mark the base year for this group of programs.

. In the Capital Budget, cumulative capital project funding through fiscal year 2022 as approved in the fiscal year 2014 budget is reduced slightly from $7.3 billion to $7.2 billion for the TransNet EAP projects. This program is made up of projects relating to the 40-year TransNet Extension sales tax program, approved by the voters of San Diego County in November 2004.

. SANDAG continues to strive for continuous improvement by implementing cost effective measures to maximize the efficiency of the general fund expenditures. The SANDAG budget and contract management programs continue to use new technology to develop more effective fiscal discipline,

18 flexibility, and responsiveness. Emphasis is being placed on scrutinizing all travel requests, re-evaluating each vacant position before authorizing replacement, expanding the ability to respond to legal issues, and optimizing the risk management portfolio. While administrative staffing is staying nearly flat at 1.3 percent, increases in legal services, Disadvantaged Business Enterprise consultation and outreach, insurance, and data storage capacity are leading to a 10 percent increase in general and administrative expenses for the next fiscal year.

. Actual cash basis sales tax collections have increased in 16 of the last 19 years of collections, with decreases occurring in fiscal years 2008, 2009, and 2010. An increase of 4.5 percent over the fiscal year 2012 estimate was originally projected for fiscal year 2013. Actual receipts during the year were 4.3 and 4.6 percent over fiscal year 2012 actual receipts for TransNet and TDA, respectively. The projected increase in the TDA apportionment for fiscal year 2014 is 5.0 percent over the revised fiscal year 2013 estimate.

. For the fiscal year 2014 budget, $262.5 million in TransNet sales tax receipts was budgeted, which represents a 5.0 percent increase over the revised estimate for fiscal year 2013. The sales tax revenue budget will fund general government administration, bicycle, pedestrian, and neighborhood safety projects, the Independent Taxpayer Oversight Committee, major corridor capital projects, major corridor environmental mitigation, local project environmental mitigation, local street improvements, smart growth, new major corridor transit operations, and transit system improvements.

Total Fund Balances - Total Governmental Funds $ 718,578,426

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of net position are different because:

Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and, therefore, are not reported in the governmental funds. 532,238,513

Other long-term assets are not available to pay for current-period expenditures and, therefore, are not reported in the governmental funds. 534,466

Some revenues will be collected after year-end, but are not available soon enough to pay for the current period's expenditures, and therefore are not reported in the governmental funds. 61,642,178

Long-term liabilities, including debt payable, are not due and payable in the current period and, therefore, are not reported in the governmental funds. (1,235,016,231)

Derivative instruments are not reported in the funds but must be reported in the statement of net position. 18,307,130

San Diego Association of Governments Reconciliation of the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances of Governmental Funds to the Statement of Activities For the year ended June 30, 2013

Net Change in Fund Balances - Total Governmental Funds $ (151,843,010)

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities are different because:

Interest earnings (expense) in the government-wide statement of activities that do not provide current financial resources are not reported as interest revenues in the funds. 7,874,163

Governmental funds report capital outlay as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. 80,208,142

The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds, commercial paper) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net assets. Also, governmental funds report the effect of bond issuance costs, premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the government-wide statement of activities. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items. 28,276,868

Some revenues do not provide current financial resources, and therefore, are deferred in governmental funds. 12,815,951

Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in the governmental funds (4,110,883)

San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The basic financial statements of the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States as applied to governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body of establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant of the SANDAG accounting policies are described below.

A. Reporting entity

SANDAG was formed as the comprehensive planning organization under a Joint Powers Agreement dated September 10, 1972. The Joint Powers Agreement was amended on November 5, 1980, to change the agency’s name to the SANDAG. The member agencies include 18 incorporated cities from the San Diego region and the County of San Diego, California.

On January 1, 2003, state legislation (Senate Bill 1703 [Peace, 2003]) was enacted that changed the structure of SANDAG from a Joint Powers Authority to a state-created regional government agency. The effect of this legislation was to make SANDAG a permanent rather than voluntary association of local governments and to increase SANDAG responsibilities and powers. Senate Bill 1703 also required the consolidation of the planning, programming, project development, and construction functions of the San Diego Metropolitan Transit Development Board, currently known as the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) and the North San Diego County Transit Development Board, currently known as the North County Transit District (NCTD), into SANDAG. This consolidation was completed in October 2003.

As required by GAAP, these financial statements present SANDAG and its component units, entities for which SANDAG is considered to be financially accountable. Blended component units, although legally separate units, are, in substance, part of an agency’s operations, and so data from these units are combined with data of the agency. Discretely presented component units, on the other hand, are reported in a separate column in the combined financial statements to emphasize they are legally separate from the agency. SANDAG has one blended component unit and two discretely presented component units. All component units have a June 30 year end.

Included within the reporting entity as a blended component unit:

San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission (Commission) – The Commission is the agency established for the purpose of, and is responsible for, the implementation and administration of transportation improvement programs funded by the San Diego countywide one-half percent sales tax effective April 1, 1988, through 2008, as a result of the passage of Proposition A – The San Diego County Transportation Improvement Program. On November 2, 2004, the voters of San Diego County voted to extend the current one-half percent sales tax for 40 more years to 2048. The Commission’s governing board is the same as the SANDAG governing board. The Commission exclusively benefits SANDAG and the SANDAG member agencies. The Commission is presented as two funds: a special revenue fund type and a debt service fund type.

49 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

Included within the reporting entity as discretely presented component units:

SourcePoint – On April 15, 1982, SANDAG formed a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation, SourcePoint, for the purpose of providing fee-based products and services that meet the needs of decision makers in the public and private sectors, while enhancing the quality and extent of demographic, economic, transportation, land use, criminal justice, and other information maintained in the Regional Information System (RIS). The SourcePoint governing board is the SANDAG Executive Committee, which is made up of six voting members of the 21 elected officials of the SANDAG governing board. The SourcePoint governing board is not substantively the same as the entire SANDAG governing board; however, the SANDAG governing body can appoint a voting majority to the SourcePoint board and can impose its will on SourcePoint activities. SourcePoint provides services directly to the public. SourcePoint is presented as a proprietary fund type.

Automated Regional Justice Information System (ARJIS) – ARJIS is a Joint Powers Agency established in December 1980, under a joint powers agreement (JPA) with the County of San Diego and all municipalities in the County, including the City of San Diego (the “City”). In January 2004, the JPA was amended, as public agencies of the San Diego region recognized the need for continued operation, maintenance, enhancement, and implementation of ARJIS, in order to provide improved law enforcement capabilities within the San Diego region and designated SANDAG as the administrator, effective July 1, 2004. ARJIS provides a regional complex criminal justice enterprise information system utilized by more than 50 local, state, and federal agencies in the San Diego region. The ARJIS governing board is the SANDAG Public Safety Committee, which is made up of six members of the 21 elected officials of the SANDAG governing board, nine public safety representatives, and five advisory members. The ARJIS governing board is not substantively the same as the entire SANDAG governing board; however, the SANDAG governing body can appoint a voting majority to the ARJIS board and can impose its will on ARJIS activities. ARJIS provides services directly to the public. ARJIS is presented as a proprietary fund type.

Complete audited individual financial statements for the Commission, SourcePoint, and ARJIS component units may be obtained from SANDAG, 401 B Street, Suite 800, San Diego, California 92101, (619) 699-1900, www.sandag.org.

B. Government-wide and fund financial statements

The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report information on all of the activities of the primary government and its two discretely presented component units. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support. The primary government is reported separately from the legally separate, discretely presented component units for which the primary government is financially accountable.

50 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include: (1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment; and (2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues. Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and the proprietary funds.

C. Measurement focus, basis of accounting, and financial statement presentation

The government-wide financial statements are reported using the “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Sales tax is recognized as revenue in the year in which it is earned. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.

Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the “current financial resources” measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter (generally 180 days after year end) to pay liabilities of the current period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting; however, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences, workers’ compensation obligations, and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due.

Revenues which are considered susceptible to accrual include sales tax, interest, and state and federal grants. In applying the subject to accrual concept to state and federal revenues, the legal and contractual requirements of the numerous individual programs are used as guidance.

Other revenues are recorded as revenues when received in cash because they are generally not measurable until actually received.

SANDAG reports the following major governmental funds:

The general fund is the SANDAG primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Revenues are primarily derived from local Transportation Development Act (TDA) funds, member agency assessments, and cost recovery related to labor and overhead costs which are recovered through operating and capital grants. Expenditures are primarily expended for general government overhead, net of cost recovery.

The special revenue TransNet fund accounts for the activities and resources received for TransNet sales tax revenue received and then transferred out for SANDAG capital and overall work program projects and one-half of the general fund Board of Director expenses.

51 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

The special revenue San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission sales tax projects fund (Commission sales tax projects fund) accounts for the activities and resources of the Commission, a blended component unit, received pursuant to the countywide one-half percent local sales tax. These revenues are transferred to SANDAG or passed through to other governmental agencies to be spent in accordance with the TransNet ordinances, or transferred to the Commission’s debt service fund to make principal and interest payments on the long-term debt sales tax revenue bonds and commercial paper.

The capital projects fund accounts for the resources and activities of SANDAG to provide for highway improvements, and rail and bus capital improvements, and replacements and other capital implementation projects. Revenues are primarily derived from federal and state capital grants, TDA, and TransNet funds.

The San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission debt service fund (Commission debt service fund) accounts for the activities and resources accumulated for principal and interest payments on the long-term debt sales tax revenue bonds and commercial paper of the Commission, a blended component unit. Revenues are derived from interest earned on the investments accumulated for the payment of principal and interest on the revenue bonds, debt repayments from other governmental agencies, and the federal subsidy related to the fiscal year 2011 Build America Bonds (BABs) issuance.

SANDAG reports the following other governmental fund types:

The special revenue general services fund accounts for the activities and resources of SANDAG to provide primarily for modeling and research, criminal justice, planning and forecasting, sustainable development, smart mobility programs and services, intermodal planning and implementation, and internal and external coordination. Revenues are primarily derived from federal, state, and local operating grants and contributions.

The special revenue prepaid fare media sales fund accounts for the activities and resources received for prepaid fare media. The revenues are primarily distributed to outside agency transit operators.

The special revenue SAFE fund accounts for the activities of the San Diego Service Authority for Freeway Emergencies program, which is responsible for purchasing, installing, operating, and maintaining a motorist aid system of call boxes in San Diego County. The SAFE program operation was transferred from the County of San Diego to SANDAG as of January 1, 2013, by the adoption of Assembly Bill 1572 (Fletcher, 2012).

SANDAG reports the following major proprietary funds:

The State Route 125 fund (SR 125 fund) accounts for the activities of the SANDAG State Route 125 (SR 125) toll road, an 11.2 mile limited access highway in the County of San Diego. On December 21, 2011, SANDAG acquired the rights and interest in a Franchise Agreement between South Bay Expressway, LLC and Caltrans. Under the Agreement, SANDAG

52 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

has contractual rights to develop and operate SR 125 toll road. The SR 125 fund was established in December 2011 as a proprietary fund under the oversight of SANDAG to operate the toll road.

SANDAG reports the following other proprietary fund types:

The Service Bureau fund accounts for the activities of the SANDAG Service Bureau, which offers fee-based products and services that meet the needs of decision makers in the public and private sectors, while enhancing the quality and extent of demographic, economic, transportation, land use, criminal justice, and other information maintained in the RIS. The discretely presented component unit 501(c)(3) nonprofit agency SourcePoint offers the same services. Projects for clients with a requirement to conduct business with a nonprofit agency will be performed by SourcePoint, with all other projects performed under the SANDAG Service Bureau.

The Interstate 15 FasTrak fund accounts for the activities of the Interstate 15 (I-15) FasTrak® program, which allows solo drivers to pay a toll to use the 16 miles of express lanes on I-15.

Interfund balances and transfers have been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements.

Amounts reported as program revenues include: (1) charges to customers or other governmental agencies for services, or privileges provided; (2) operating grants and contributions; and (3) capital grants and contributions. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include sales tax and other general revenues not restricted to specific programs.

Certain eliminations have been made as prescribed by GASB Statement No. 34 in regards to interfund activities, payables, and receivables. All internal balances in the statement of net position have been eliminated except those representing balances between the governmental activities and the business-type activities, which are presented as internal balances and eliminated in the total primary government column. In the statement of activities, those transactions between governmental and business-type activities have not been eliminated.

An eliminations column is presented for the fund financial statements in order to eliminate the allocation of revenues and expenditures. Sales tax revenues are recorded in the Commission sales tax projects fund and in the TransNet fund upon transfer of cash from the Commission to SANDAG. TransNet expenditures are recorded in the Commission sales tax projects fund and in the general fund, general services fund, or capital projects fund upon expending TransNet funds for the administration of the TransNet program and TransNet funded projects administered and implemented by SANDAG. At June 30, 2013, the total amount of eliminations was $209,607,289.

53 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

D. Budgetary information

1. Budgetary basis of accounting

An annual budget is adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles for the general fund, special revenue funds, the debt service fund, and the capital project fund.

2. Expenditures in excess of appropriations

The sales tax projects special revenue fund ended the year with $76,623,873 of expenditures in excess of appropriations, which is primarily the result of bond proceeds use for major corridor capital projects.

The commercial paper and sales tax revenue bonds debt service fund had an excess of $4,612,269 expenditures over appropriations at June 30, 2013, which was primarily the result of approximately $3.1 million in bond costs of the debt program and $1.6 million of commercial paper principal payments, both of which are not budgeted.

The prepaid fare media sales special revenue fund had an excess of $1,054,338 expenditures over appropriations, which is primarily the result of transitioning the program to MTS at year-end.

E. Assets, liabilities, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and net position/fund balance

1. Cash and investments

SANDAG cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits, money market accounts and funds, and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition.

The SANDAG investment policy is in accordance with California Government Code Section 53600. SANDAG is authorized to invest in the following: • Treasury obligations • State of California’s Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) • San Diego County Treasurer’s pooled investment fund • Savings/money market accounts • California asset management program • Mortgage and asset-backed obligations • Negotiable and nonnegotiable certificates of deposit • State obligations • Repurchase Agreements • Commercial paper • Medium-term notes • Money market funds • Bankers’ acceptances • Local agency obligations

54 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

In accordance with GASB Statement No. 31, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and for External Investment Pools, investments were stated at fair value.

SANDAG participates in an investment pool managed by the State of California, titled LAIF, which has invested 1.96 percent of the pool funds in medium-term and short-term structured notes and asset-backed securities. LAIF’s investments are subject to credit risk with the full faith and credit of the State of California collateralizing these investments. In addition, these structured notes and asset-backed securities are subject to market risk and to change in interest rates. The reported value of the pool is the same as the fair value of the pool shares. The fair value of LAIF was calculated by applying a factor of 1.000273207 to total investments held by LAIF. LAIF is classified under investments and is not rated.

SANDAG is a voluntary participant in the California Asset Management Program (CAMP), which is an investment pool offered by the California Asset Management Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a joint powers authority and public agency created by the Declaration of Trust and established under the provisions of the California Joint Exercise of Powers Act (California Government Code Sections 6500 et seq., or the "Act") for the purpose of exercising the common power of its Participants to invest certain proceeds of debt issues and surplus funds. In accordance with Section 53601(p) of the California Government Code, CAMP's investments are limited to investments permitted by subdivisions (a) to (n), inclusive, of Section 53601. SANDAG reports its investments in CAMP at the fair value amounts provided by CAMP, which is the same as the value of the pool share. At June 30, 2013, fair value approximated cost and had an average maturity of 37 days.

SANDAG also participates in the San Diego County Treasurer’s Pooled Money Fund, which is administered by the Treasurer-Tax Collector’s Office. The fair value of the SANDAG investment in the pool is reported at amounts based upon the SANDAG pro‐rata share of the fair value provided by the County Treasurer for the entire portfolio (in relation to the amortized cost of that portfolio). Earnings realized on investments based on amortized cost are distributed to Investment Pool participants. Section 27013 of the California Government Code authorizes the Treasurer’s Office to deduct administrative fees related to investments. The net realized earnings on investments are apportioned to the Investment Pool participants quarterly, based on the participants’ average daily balances. The County of San Diego’s annual financial report for the Pool can be obtained from the Treasurer-Tax Collector at 1600 Pacific Highway, Room 162, San Diego, California, 92101 and can also be accessed at www.sdtreastax.com.

In accordance with GASB Statement No. 40, Deposit and Investment Risk Disclosures (an amendment of GASB Statement No. 3), SANDAG adheres to certain disclosure requirements, if applicable for deposit and investment risk; these requirements are specified for the following areas:

55 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

. Interest rate risk

. Credit risk  Overall  Custodial credit risk  Concentration of credit risk

. Foreign currency risk

2. Receivables and payables

Activities between funds that are representative of short-term lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as “due to/from other funds” and “internal balances” for long-term lending/borrowing arrangements.

3. Prepaid items

Payments made to vendors for services that will benefit periods beyond June 30, 2013, are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statements. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased.

4. Restricted assets

Certain resources set aside for repayment of revenue bonds are classified as restricted assets. Their use is limited by applicable bond covenants and therefore are maintained in a separate bank account. The accounts are used to segregate resources accumulated for debt service principal and interest payments.

Other resources set aside for NCTD Certificates of Participation are classified as restricted assets because they are maintained in separate bank accounts held by a trustee and their use is limited to paying down the equivalent amount of commercial paper.

In addition, certain environmental mitigation funds are classified as restricted assets because they are maintained in separate bank accounts held by a trustee and the endowment set aside portion may not be used and any interest earnings may only be used for certain project costs.

Other resources set aside for TransNet-eligible projects are classified as restricted assets. Their use is limited by specific purposes stipulated in the Proposition A - San Diego County Transportation Improvement Program (TransNet Ordinance).

Lastly, certain resources set aside for the payment of future capital contract retention liabilities are classified as restricted assets because they are maintained in separate bank accounts, which will be paid to contractors as work is completed. The accounts are used to segregate resources accumulated for withheld retention payments.

56 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

5. Capital assets

Capital assets, which include land, building, toll road, office equipment, computer equipment, other equipment, vehicles, leasehold improvements, internally generated computer software, buses, electronic toll collection system, and construction-in-progress, are reported in the government-wide financial statements net of accumulated depreciation, except for construction-in-progress and land which are not depreciated. To meet the criteria for capitalization, an asset must have a useful life in excess of one year and an initial, individual cost equal to or greater than $5,000. Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. The purchase of the toll road and related assets were valued on the acquisition date at fair value. Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation.

The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend the asset’s life are not capitalized.

Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Construction-in-Progress (CIP) remains capitalized in the government-wide financial statements, until such time as the capital projects are complete and operational. Upon completion, the entire amount of the CIP, as well as the legal title of the property and equipment, if applicable, are transferred as contributed capital to other governmental agencies to reflect the other government’s custodial accountability for the operation and maintenance of the assets.

Depreciation of capital assets is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows:

Assets Years Computer equipment 3 Office equipment 5 Other equipment 5 Vehicles 5 Leasehold improvements 5 Internally generated computer software 5 Electronic toll collection system 10 Buses 12 Toll road 31 Building 50

6. Deferred outflows/inflows of resources

In addition to assets, the statement of financial position reports a separate section for deferred outflows of resources, which represents a consumption of assets that applies to a future period and so, will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. SANDAG has two items that qualify for reporting in this category; the accumulated decrease in

57 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

fair value of the hedging swap agreement and the deferred charge on refunding loss reported in the government-wide statement of net position. See Note III.F for more information on the SANDAG long-term liabilities.

In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position reports a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. SANDAG has one type of this item, which arises only under a modified accrual basis of accounting that qualifies for reporting in this category. Accordingly, the item, unavailable revenue, is reported only in the governmental funds balance sheet. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues in the capital projects fund, Commission debt service fund, and general services fund. These amounts are deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period the amounts become available.

7. Net Position

The difference between fund assets and deferred outflows of resources, and liabilities and deferred inflow of resources is “Net Position” on government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements.

Net position is reported as restricted when constraints are placed on net position use by creditors or by law or enabling legislation. The following terms are used in the reporting of net position:

Net Investment in Capital Assets - Net investment in capital assets consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, and reduced by the outstanding debt balances that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets.

Debt Service - Net position restricted for the payments of future debt service.

Restricted for Environmental Mitigation - Net position restricted for funding of various environmental mitigation projects.

Major Maintenance - Net position restricted for funding the SR 125 toll road major maintenance projects.

Project Revenue - Net position restricted for other legally restricted funds.

Unrestricted Net Position - Unrestricted net position is the net amount of the assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources that is not included in the above restricted categories of net position.

The governmental activities unrestricted net deficit of $181,431,527 results primarily from the issuance of the $1,370,585,000 sales tax revenue bonds in fiscal years 2008, 2011, and 2012 for transportation related projects, primarily major corridor, and environmental mitigation. SANDAG

58 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

plans to repay the bonds with future sales tax revenue, which is dedicated for transportation projects. See Note III.F on long-term debt for further information.

The business-type activities unrestricted net deficit of $53,302,771 results primarily from the assumption of the $95,629,359 Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) notes in fiscal year 2012 for the acquisition of the SR 125 toll road. SANDAG plans to repay the notes with future toll road revenue. See Note III.F on long-term debt for further information.

8. Net position flow assumption

Sometimes SANDAG will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted (e.g., restricted bond or grant proceeds) and unrestricted resources. In order to calculate the amounts to report as restricted – net position and unrestricted – net position in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements, a flow assumption must be made about the order in which the resources are considered to be applied. It is the SANDAG policy to consider restricted – net position to have been depleted before unrestricted – net position is applied.

9. Fund Balance

Fund balances are reported in the governmental fund financial statements in the following classifications:

Nonspendable Fund Balance

Nonspendable Fund Balance – this includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are either not spendable in form (such as inventory) or legally, or contractually required to be maintained intact (such as endowments).

Spendable Fund Balance

Restricted Fund Balance – this includes amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes stipulated by constitution, external resource providers, or through enabling legislation. If the Board action limiting the use of funds is included in the same action (legislation) that created (enables) the funding source, then it is restricted.

Committed Fund Balance – this includes amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes determined by a formal action of the Board. It includes legislation (Board action) that can only be overturned by new legislation requiring the same type of voting consensus that created the original action. Therefore, if the Board action limiting the use of the funds is separate from the action (legislation) that created (enables) the funding source, then it is committed, not restricted. SANDAG considers a resolution to constitute the formal action of the Board of Directors necessary to establish a commitment of fund balance.

59 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

Assigned Fund Balance – this includes amounts that are designated or expressed by the Board, but does not require a formal action like a resolution or ordinance. The Board has not delegated to any other persons or bodies the authority to assign fund balance to specific purposes.

Unassigned Fund Balance – this includes the remaining spendable amounts which are not included in one of the other classifications.

10. Fund balance flow assumptions

Sometimes SANDAG will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted and unrestricted resources (the total of committed, assigned, and unassigned fund balance). In order to calculate the amounts to report as restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned fund balance in the governmental fund financial statements a flow assumption must be made about the order in which the resources are considered to be applied. It is the SANDAG policy to consider restricted fund balance to have been depleted before using any of the components of unrestricted fund balance. Further, when the components of unrestricted fund balance can be used for the same purpose, committed fund balance is depleted first, followed by assigned fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is applied last.

11. Long-term liabilities

The SANDAG long-term liabilities consist of debt obligations:

In the government-wide financial statements, long-term debt obligations are reported as liabilities in the governmental activities of the statement of net position. Debt premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the straight-line method. Debt payable is reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount. Debt issuance costs are expensed as they incur.

See Note III.F for more information on the SANDAG long-term liabilities.

12. Compensated absences

It is the SANDAG policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation and sick pay benefits. All unused vacation leave and 25 percent of unused sick leave are accrued when incurred in the government-wide financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements. Based on the reduction in the compensated absences payables balance of $2,733,148 during fiscal year 2013, it was determined that the entire balance of compensated absences reported at June 30, 2013, is expected to be exhausted in fiscal year 2014 since the current year portion amounts to about the same amount expected to be used in fiscal year 2014. Because the turnover each year nets to approximately $0, the entire balance is reported as current. Compensated absences are liquidated by the general fund.

60 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

13. Unearned revenue

In the government-wide and fund financial statements, unearned revenue is recognized in connection with a transaction before the earning process is completed.

14. Other financing sources and uses

In the fund financial statements, issuance of debt, including commercial paper, bonds, and premium on bonds issued, and transfers in are reported as other financing sources. Transfers out and discounts on bonds issued are reported as other financing uses.

15. Estimates

The preparation of basic financial statements in conformity with GAAP in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the basic financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

II. RECONCILIATION OF GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. Explanation of certain differences between the governmental fund balance sheet and the government-wide statement of net position

The governmental fund balance sheet includes a reconciliation between fund balances-total governmental funds and net position-governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of net position. One element of the reconciliation explains that “capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and, therefore, are not reported in the governmental funds.” The details of this $532,238,513 are as follows:

Construction-in-progress capital assets, not being depreciated $ 526,336,392 Land, not being depreciated 5,241,439 Capital assets, being depreciated 7,869,518 Accumulated depreciation (7,208,836) Net adjustment to increase fund balance - total governmental funds to arrive at net position - governmental activities $ 532,238,513

One element of the reconciliation explains that “other long-term assets are not available to pay for current-period expenditures and, therefore, are not reported in the governmental funds.” The details of this $534,466 are as follows:

OPEB asset $ 523,078 Accrued interest income - commercial paper 11,388 Net adjustment to increase net changes in fund balances - governmental funds to arrive at changes in net position - governmental activities $ 534,466

61 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

Another element of the reconciliation states that “some revenues will be collected after year-end, but are not available soon enough to pay for the current period's expenditures, and therefore are reported as unavailable revenue in the funds.” This difference is $61,642,178.

Another element of the reconciliation states that “long-term liabilities, including debt payable, are not due and payable in the current period and; therefore, are not reported in the governmental funds.” The details of this $(1,235,016,231) difference are as follows:

Accrued interest payable $ (11,091,174) Bond premium (54,927,472) Deferred loss on refunding 20,083,124 Commercial paper payable (33,780,000) Bonds payable (1,153,225,000) Compensated absences payable (2,075,709) Net adjustment to reduce net changes in fund balances - governmental funds to arrive at changes in net position - governmental activities $ (1,235,016,231)

Another element of the reconciliation states that “derivative instruments are not reported in the funds but must be reported in the statement of net position.” The details of this $18,307,130 difference are as follows:

Deferred outflows of resources $ 65,378,370 Derivative instrument - swap liability (47,071,240) Net adjustment to increase net changes in fund balances - governmental funds to arrive at changes in net position - governmental activities $ 18,307,130

B. Explanation of certain differences between the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances and the government-wide statement of activities

The governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances includes a reconciliation between net changes in fund balances-total governmental funds and changes in net position of governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of activities. One element of the reconciliation explains that, “interest revenues in the statement of activities do not provide current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as interest revenues in the governmental funds.” The details of this $7,874,163 difference are as follows:

Accrued interest revenue - commercial paper $ (5,840) Derivative instrument - investment revenue (loss) 7,880,003 Net adjustment to increase net changes in funds balances - governmental funds to arrive at changes in net position - governmental activities $ 7,874,163

62 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

Another element of the reconciliation states that, “governmental funds report capital outlay as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their useful lives and reported as depreciation expense.” The details of this $80,208,142 are as follows:

Construction-in-progress additions-capital outlay $ 318,570,640 Contributed capital (238,429,780) Other capital assets adjustments 196,434 Other capital assets depreciation (129,152) Net adjustment to increase net changes in fund balances - total governmental funds to arrive at changes in net position - governmental activities $ 80,208,142

Another element of the reconciliation states that, “the issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds, commercial paper) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction; however, has any effect on net position. Also, governmental funds report the effect of bond premiums and discounts when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items.” The details of this $28,276,868 difference are as follows:

Bond principal retirement $ 18,640,000 Commercial paper issued (1,579,000) Commercial paper pass-through payments to other governments 1,579,000 Bond pass-through payments to other governments 10,455,600 Debt repayments from other governments (1,624,727) Commercial paper paydown 1,620,000 Amortization expense on unamortized premium on bonds issued 1,599,672 Amortization expense on unamortized loss on refunding bonds issued (2,413,677)

Net adjustment to increase net changes in fund balances - governmental funds to arrive at changes in net position - governmental activities $ 28,276,868

Another element of the reconciliation states that, “some revenues do not provide current financial resources, and therefore, are deferred in governmental funds.” This amount of this difference is $12,815,951.

Another element of the reconciliation states that, “some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in the governmental funds.” The details of this $(4,110,883) difference are as follows:

Change in interest expense $ (3,878,525) Change in OPEB asset 2,237 Change in compensated absences (234,595) Net adjustment to increase net changes in fund balances - governmental funds to arrive at changes in net position - governmental activities $ (4,110,883)

At year end, the primary government’s carrying amount of deposits was $10,757,420 and the bank balance was $15,021,856. This balance was covered by federal depository insurance or by collateral held in the SANDAG name.

At year end, SourcePoint’s carrying amount of deposits was $8,191 and the bank balance was $142,476. This balance was covered by federal depository insurance.

At year end, ARJIS’s carrying amount of deposits was $108,615 and the bank balance was $527,056. This balance was covered by federal depository insurance or by collateral held in the SANDAG name.

1. Swap investments

SANDAG is invested in two forward contract pay-variable, receive-variable investment derivatives with notional amounts of $156,600,000 each. At the effective date of April 1, 2018, SANDAG will make monthly variable payments to the counterparty based on the current Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) Swap Index and receive variable payments based on 107.4 percent of three-month LIBOR. At June 30, 2013, these investment derivatives had a fair value of $18,307,130, and are not rated.

Other applicable risks (credit risk, interest rate risk, basis risk, termination risk, roll-over risk, etc.) associated with the SANDAG derivative investments are described in Note III.E.

2. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. As a means of limiting its exposure to fair value losses arising from the rising interest rates, the SANDAG investment policy limits investments to a maximum maturity of five years or 1,825 days from purchase date. The total portfolio shall not exceed the SANDAG anticipated liquidity needs for operations for the next six months. SANDAG has $51,956,122 of callable step up United States Agency securities that are highly sensitive to interest rate changes. SANDAG is in compliance with all maturity provisions of the investment policy.

3. Credit risk

Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by at least one of the nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (NRSRO). The SANDAG investment policy limits investments to the following: State and local agency obligations must be rated A-1/P-1, or equivalent or better short-term or Aa/AA or better long-term by at least one of the NRSROs; repurchase agreements must be with (1) primary dealers in United States Government securities, who are eligible to transact business with, and who report to, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; and (2) California and non-California banking institutions having assets in excess of $1 billion and in the highest short-term rating category, as provided by one of the NRSROs; bankers’ acceptances, which are eligible for purchase by the Federal Reserve System, the

65 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

short-term paper of which is rated in the highest rating category by one of the NRSROs; commercial paper of “prime” quality of the highest rating or of the highest letter and number rating as provided for by a NRSRO; medium-term notes must be rated in a rating category of “A” or better by a NRSRO; negotiable certificates of deposit of which the senior debt obligations of the issuing institution are rated “AA” or better by one of the NRSROs; nonnegotiable certificates of deposit and savings/money market accounts of which the financial institution must have received a minimum overall satisfactory rating for meeting the credit needs of California Communities in its most recent evaluation, as provided in California Government Code Section 53635; California Asset Management Program of which the portfolio is rated among the top two rating categories by one of the NRSROs; money market funds must either (1) attain the highest ranking letter or numerical rating provided by not less than two of the three largest NRSROs; or (2) have an investment advisor registered or exempt from registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission with not less than five years’ experience managing money market mutual funds with assets under management in excess of $500,000,000; and mortgage and asset-backed obligations must be rated Aa/AA or higher by two NRSROs and the issuer of such obligations must be rated Aa/AA or higher by two of the NRSROs as well.

The portfolio is diversified by security type and institution to avoid incurring unreasonable and avoidable risks regarding specific security types or individual financial institutions. Credit requirements listed in the investment policy apply at the time of purchase. In the event a security held by SANDAG is subject to a credit rating change that brings it below the minimum credit ratings specified for purchase, the Director of Finance shall review the security. The course of action to be followed will then be decided by the Director of Finance and either the Executive Director or the Chief Deputy Executive Director on a case-by-case basis, considering such factors as the reason for the change, prognosis for recovery or further rate drops, and the market price of the security. Any credit rating changes below the minimum credit ratings specified for purchase will be reported to the Board of Directors along with the findings and any actions taken.

The SANDAG portfolio is in compliance with all minimum rating requirements of the investment policy and did not experience any credit rating changes that brought the security below the minimum credit ratings as specified.

4. Concentration of credit risk

Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the relative size of an investment in a single issuer. The SANDAG investment policy limits the percentage of the portfolio that can be invested by type of investment for certain types of investments to the following: purchases of bankers’ acceptances may not exceed 40 percent of the SANDAG investments; commercial paper may not exceed more than 10 percent of the outstanding paper of an issuing corporation, no more than 10 percent in any one corporation, or may not exceed 25 percent of the SANDAG investments; medium-term notes may not exceed 30 percent of the SANDAG investments or no more than 10 percent in any one corporation; certificates of deposit may not exceed 30 percent of the SANDAG investments; money markets fund shares may not exceed 20 percent of the SANDAG investments; and mortgage and asset-backed obligations may not exceed 20 percent of the SANDAG investments.

66 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

The SANDAG portfolio is in compliance with all the limit requirements on the percentage of the portfolio that can be invested by type of investment.

5. Custodial credit risk

The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure the SANDAG cash deposits by pledging securities as collateral. This Code states that collateral pledged in this manner shall have the effect of perfecting a security interest in such collateral superior to those of a general creditor. Thus, collateral for cash deposits is considered to be held in the SANDAG name.

The market value of pledged securities must equal at least 110 percent of the SANDAG cash deposits. California law also allows institutions to secure SANDAG deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150 percent of the SANDAG total cash deposits. SANDAG may waive collateral requirements for cash deposits, which are fully insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. SANDAG; however, has not waived the collateralization requirements.

B. Receivables

Receivables as of June 30, 2013, for the primary government in the aggregate were as follows:

Governmental Funds Proprietary Funds Commission Commission Sales Tax Capital Debt SR 125 Total General Projects Projects Service Non-Major Toll Road Non-Major Primary Fund Fund Fund Fund Funds Fund Funds Government

4. Interfund balances

Interfund balances of $56,373,690 include advances from the Commission sales tax projects fund to the SR 125 toll road fund for the acquisition of the SR 125 franchise with the original $3 million used toward operations of the SR 125 toll road. The TransNet promissory note called for SANDAG to borrow the principal amount of $254,068,974 from the Commission. As required by the TransNet Ordinance, SANDAG will be required to ensure the TransNet revenues are made whole. Therefore, the interest rate SANDAG was charged was 4.25 percent based on recent TransNet borrowing history. The promissory note was a permitted subordinated debt under the bond transaction documents for TransNet. The promissory note requires that the proceeds of the promissory note only be used for costs associated with the toll road franchise.

On March 23, 2012, the TransNet Extension Ordinance was amended to modify the Expenditure Plan such that the improvements on Interstate 805 (I-805), valued at a remaining $134 million in 2002 dollars (or $192 million in 2010 dollars), would be removed from the Expenditure Plan. As a result, the initial amount borrowed from TransNet was reduced by $192 million. As of June 30, 2013, the outstanding principal of the TransNet advance was $59,214,571, with accrued interest of $3,666,019.

E. Derivative instruments

1. 2008 interest rate swaps

Objective of the interest rate swaps. In 2005, SANDAG entered into three forward interest rate swaps for $200 million each in order to hedge the interest rate risk associated with future variable-rate revenue bonds expected to be issued in 2008 by “locking in” a fixed interest rate. The intention of SANDAG in entering into the swaps was to lock in a relatively low cost of funds on a substantial portion of the TransNet Early Action Program. The variable rate bonds were issued in March 2008.

73 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

On May 23, 2012, SANDAG refunded $151.5 million of the outstanding variable rate bonds with fixed rate bonds and terminated the associated interest rate swaps. The low fixed municipal interest rates at that time provided the opportunity for SANDAG to refund the 2013 to 2022 maturities of the Series 2008 variable rate bonds ($151.5 million in par) and partially terminate the associated swaps (also equal to $151.5 million in notional amount) without increasing annual debt service. The purpose of this transaction was to reduce variable rate exposure and swap counterparty risk at no additional cost to SANDAG.

Fair values. The fair value balances and notional amounts of derivative instruments outstanding at June 30, 2013, classified by type, and the changes in fair value of such derivative instruments for the year ended are as follows:

Changes in Fair Value Fair Value at June 30, 2013 Classification Amount Classification Amount Notional Governmental activities Cash flow hedges: Pay-fixed interest rate Deferred swaps outflows $50,202,925 Debt (65,378,370) $402,300,000 Investment derivatives: Pay-floating Receive floating interest rate Investment swaps revenue $7,880,003 Investment $18,307,130 $313,200,000

Objective and Terms of Hedging Derivative Instruments

The following table displays the objective and terms of the the SANDAG hedging derivative instruments outstanding at June 30, 2013, along with the credit rating of the associated counterparty (amounts in thousands).

Credit Risk. This is the risk that the counterparty will fail to perform under the terms of the agreement. As of June 30, 2013, SANDAG was not exposed to credit risk on these swaps because they had negative fair values. However, should interest rates change and the fair values of the swaps become positive, SANDAG would be exposed to credit risk in the amount of the swaps’ fair values. Favorable credit ratings of the counterparties (Bank of America and Goldman Sachs Mitsui Marine Derivative Products) mitigate this risk. As of June 30, 2013, Bank of America was rated A3 by Moody’s and A by Standard & Poor’s, and Goldman Sachs Mitsui Marine Derivative Products was rated Aa2 by Moody’s and AAA by Standard and Poor’s. The ratings are monitored by staff on a weekly basis. In addition, the fair value of the swaps will be fully collateralized by the counterparty with cash or United States government securities if the counterparty’s credit quality falls below a rating of Baa2 by Moody’s or BBB by Standard & Poor’s. Collateral would be posted with a third-party custodian.

Interest rate risk. This is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the net payment on the swaps. SANDAG is exposed to interest rate risk on its swaps when LIBOR decreases causing SANDAG’s net payment on the swaps to increase.

Basis risk. This is the risk of a mismatch between the variable rate received from the counterparty and the variable rate paid on the variable-rate debt issued in 2008. SANDAG is exposed to basis risk should the floating rate that it receives on a swap be less than the actual variable rate SANDAG pays on the bonds. Depending on the magnitude and duration of any basis risk shortfall, the effective fixed rate on the debt will vary. Based on historical experience, the expectation is that the payments received under the agreements will approximate the expected bond payments over the 30-year term of the swaps. Due to the favorable market conditions during fiscal year 2013, SANDAG was not exposed to basis risk since the variable rate received from the counterparty, which is 65 percent of LIBOR, was more than the variable rate

75 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

SANDAG paid on the bonds. This savings for fiscal year 2013 was $18,252 as compared to a negative of $1,029,325 in fiscal year 2012.

Termination risk and termination payments. This is the risk that the transaction is terminated in a market dictating a termination payment by SANDAG. SANDAG can terminate the swap at the fair value by providing notice to the counterparty, while the counterparty may only terminate the swap upon certain termination events under the terms of the agreement. SANDAG or the counterparties may terminate the swap if the other party fails to perform under the terms of the contracts, such as the failure to make swap payments. If the swap is terminated, the variable-rate bonds would no longer be hedged. Given the negative fair value of June 30, 2013, SANDAG was not in a favorable termination position relative to the market. SANDAG effectively reduced the ongoing termination risk by refunding $151.5 million in variable-rate bonds and terminating the same amount of the outstanding interest rate swaps in June 2012, under favorable market conditions with low fixed rates. Refunding additional maturities and terminating more of the interest rate swaps would have led to a net increase in debt service under a fixed-rate structure, which was contrary to the SANDAG programmatic objectives. Consequently, the reduced amount of variable-rate bonds and interest rate swaps was left in place.

Rollover risk. This is the risk that maturity of the hedging derivative instruments is shorter than the maturity of the associated debt leaving SANDAG unprotected in the future. When these swaps terminate, or in the case of a termination option, if the counterparty exercises its option, SANDAG will be re-exposed to the risks being hedged by the swaps. SANDAG is exposed to rollover risk on the swaps only in the event of a failure to perform under the terms of the contracts by SANDAG or counterparty.

Reset rates paid and received by SANDAG. The weekly variable interest rates paid on the 2008 TransNet bonds by SANDAG to the bondholders for the period July 1, 2012, through June 30, 2013, ranged from 0.05 percent to 0.24 percent for Barclays Bank; 0.04 percent to 0.28 percent for Goldman, Sachs & Co.; 0.05 percent to 0.23 percent for J.P. Morgan Securities, Inc.; and 0.05 percent to 0.24 percent for EJ De La Rosa.

Fixed rates paid by SANDAG to the swap provider counterparties were 3.41 percent to Bank of America for one of the swaps, 3.8165 percent to Bank of America for another one of the swaps, and 3.8165 percent to Goldman Sachs Mitsui Marine Derivative Products. Sixty-five percent (65 percent) of LIBOR received by SANDAG from the swap provider counterparties ranged from 0.12596 percent to 0.15971 percent during the same time period.

Actual debt-service requirements versus the projected debt-service on the swap transaction. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013, Bank of America actual debt service was $4,558,757 versus projected debt service of $4,572,810 for one of the swaps, and was $5,118,069 versus projected debt service of $5,117,926 for the other Bank of America swap; and Goldman Sachs Mitsui Marine Derivative Products actual debt service was $5,113,585 versus projected debt service of $5,117,926 for its swap. In total, actual debt service was $14,791,411 versus projected debt service of $14,808,663, which resulted in a savings of variable rate payments received from the swap counterparties as compared to the variable rate payments

76 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

made on the bonds in the amount of $18,252 for fiscal year 2013. Over the life of the swaps from the issuance of the bonds through June 30, 2013, the cumulative excess of variable rate payments made on the bonds as compared to the variable rate payments received from the swap counterparties is $4,430,709. This means that the net variable rates SANDAG is paying on the 2008 TransNet bonds is more than the variable rate SANDAG is receiving, and these rates were originally intended to offset and net to zero.

The total net cost of the program includes liquidity facilities with JP Morgan (Series A and B), Mizuho Corporate Bank, Ltd (Series C), and State Street Bank and Trust Company and California State Teachers’ Retirement Fund (Series D). The Standby Bond Purchase Agreement (SBPA) cost for the Series A and B bonds is 56 basis points, the Series C bonds is 47.5 basis points, and the SBPA cost for the Series D bonds is 65 basis points. The JP Morgan SBPA originally carried a cost for the initial one-year term of 20 basis points, with annual renewals and adjusting costs with the latest renewal through March 2014. SANDAG continues to explore opportunities to lower the cost of the liquidity facility and will again pursue competitive options as we near the renewal term of March 2014.

2. 2018 basis rate swaps overlay to the 2008 interest rate swaps

Objective of the basis rate swaps. On March 19, 2009, SANDAG entered into a SIFMA versus LIBOR floating-to-floating or “basis” swap. The combination of the Basis Swaps and the existing 2008 Interest Rate Swaps effectively amended the existing swaps without having to change the existing floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps. This overlay allowed SANDAG to bid out the new transaction to a group of potential counterparties without changing the existing 2008 Interest Rate Swaps. SANDAG was able to enter into a new transaction with Barclays Bank PLC to overlay the terms under two of the 2008 Interest Rate Swaps, with an expected benefit to SANDAG of a substantial reduction in the cost of debt after 2018.

Terms. The initial notional amounts of the swaps are $156.6 million each. Under two of the 2008 Interest Rate Swaps, RTC pays the counterparties a fixed payment of 3.8165 percent and receives 65 percent of LIBOR (through April 2018), and thereafter receives the SIFMA index. The 2018 Basis Rate Swaps overlay these two 2008 Interest Rate Swaps with a payment of the SIFMA index and a receipt of 107.4 percent of LIBOR for the last 20 years of the swap (April 2018 to April 2038).

Fair values. The swaps had a total combined positive fair value of $18,307,130 as of June 30, 2013. The fair values of the derivatives were estimated by an independent third-party based on mid-market levels as of the close of business on June 30, 2013. The fair values take into consideration the prevailing interest rate environment and the specific terms and conditions of the swaps.

Credit risk. This is the risk that the counterparty will fail to perform under the terms of the agreements. As of June 30, 2013, SANDAG was exposed to credit risk on these swaps in the amount of $18,307,130, which is the fair value of the derivatives. However, should interest rates change and the fair value of the swaps become negative; SANDAG would not be exposed to any

77 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

credit risk. The favorable credit rating of the counterparty mitigates this risk. As of June 30, 2013, the swap counterparty, Barclays Bank PLC, was rated A2 by Moody’s and A+ by Standard & Poor’s.

Interest rate risk. This is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the net payment on the swaps. SANDAG is exposed to interest rate risk on its swaps when LIBOR decreases causing the SANDAG net payment on the swaps to increase.

Basis risk. This is the risk of a mismatch between the variable rate received from the counterparty and the variable rate paid on the variable rate debt issued in 2008. SANDAG is exposed to basis risk should the floating rate that it receives on a swap be less than the actual variable rate SANDAG pays on the bonds. Depending on the magnitude and duration of any basis risk shortfall, the effective fixed rate on the debt will vary. Based on current and historical experience, staff expects the overlay of the SIFMA to LIBOR Basis Rate Swaps to significantly reduce the costs of financing after 2018, assuming a return to normal, or even near to normal trading relationships.

Termination risk and termination payments. This is the risk that the transaction is terminated in a market dictating a termination payment by SANDAG. SANDAG can terminate a swap at the fair market value by providing notice to the counterparty, while the counterparty may only terminate the swap upon certain termination events under the terms of the agreement. Given the positive fair value at June 30, 2013, SANDAG was in a favorable termination position relative to the market.

SANDAG Board Policy No. 032: The Commission Interest Rate Swap Policy requires a contingency plan to either replace the swaps or fund the termination payments, if any, in the event one or more outstanding swaps are terminated. Should a swap be terminated, the excellent credit rating of SANDAG would allow it to assign the swap to another counterparty. Alternatively, if a swap is terminated and it has a negative fair value, SANDAG could use TransNet sales tax receipts to fund the termination payment.

F. Long-term debt

1. The 2008 Series ABCD bonds

In March 2008, SANDAG issued $600,000,000 of variable rate bonds to fund some of the major projects identified in the TransNet reauthorization (approved by voters in November 2004) under the TransNet Early Action Program. In June 2012, SANDAG refunded $151,500,000 of the Series 2008 Bonds and terminated a corresponding portion of the interest rate swaps relating to the Series 2008 Bonds through the issuance of the 2012 Series A tax-exempt bonds.

The bonds bear interest at a variable rate, which is reset weekly. See Note III.D.1 for reset rate ranges for each remarketing agent. The above table incorporates the net receipts/payments of the hedging derivative instruments that are associated with this debt. These amounts assume that current interest rates on variable rate bonds and the current reference rates of hedging derivative instruments will remain the same for their term. As these rates vary, interest payments on variable rate bonds and net receipts/payments on the hedging derivative instruments will vary. Refer to Note III.D for additional information regarding the derivative instruments associated with the debt of SANDAG.

2. The 2010 Series A and B bonds

4. Commercial paper notes

At June 30, 2013, SANDAG had a $75,000,000 tax-exempt commercial paper program available (Series B), reduced from $100,000,000 and moved from a Line of Credit to a Direct-Pay Letter of Credit, based on anticipated financing needs and to reduce liquidity fees. Under the Reimbursement Agreement relating to the Series B Notes, dated September 1, 2012, the commercial paper would be available through September 18, 2015.

During the fiscal year, the maximum outstanding balance was $35,275,000. As of June 30, 2013, there was $33,780,000 outstanding. Interest rates during the current year have varied from 0.14 percent to .2992 percent, with maturities from 5 days to 97 days. Interest rates on outstanding amounts at June 30, 2013, are 0.19 percent, with maturities at 33 and 97 days. The higher rates experienced during the first quarter of the year are due to the liquidity facility provider, Bank of America, N.A., which received a downgrade from Moody’s of one notch from ‘P-1’ to ‘P-2’ in June 2012. While the downgrade did not immediately lead to a severe increase in interest rates for the commercial paper program, it precluded some investors from purchasing the SANDAG commercial paper based upon the lower short-term ratings of Bank of America, N.A. SANDAG replaced Bank of America with Union Bank, N.A. on September 19, 2012, through a competitive procurement process.

5. Senior Debt - TIFIA Secured Loan

The TIFIA loans are divided into three separate notes or tranches, each of which have different principal amounts, interest rates, and payment commencement and due dates. The loans are secured by first liens on the SR 125 toll road project revenue, the contract rights related to the toll road, and a deed of trust on the leasehold interest in the toll road’s right of way. Tranches B-2 and C-2 had accrued interest of $4,639,578 and $439,070, respectively, added to the ending balances of their respective tranches. The following table shows the three tranches, initial principal amounts, and interest rates.

83 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

d. Series D Obligation

The Series D Agreement provides that SANDAG will pay TIFIA, to the extent of available project revenue, $1,445,850 plus interest at the rate of 14 percent per year compounded semi-annually. Payments are only due, and can only be made, after full payment of the existing TIFIA loan and full satisfaction of the TransNet loan (see Note III.C.4). Any amounts remaining unpaid as of December 31, 2042, are automatically forgiven. Prepayment of the Series D Note is possible, but only at the value the note will have on December 31, 2042. The Series D loan is secured by a third lien, behind the TIFIA and TransNet notes, on the project revenues, but no other project assets are pledged to Series D. The only event of default is SANDAG’s failure to maintain the Toll Covenant. The Series D Agreement further provides that the SANDAG obligations are non-recourse and that the holders of Series D can only look to the revenues of the toll road for repayment in the event of a default. As of June 30, 2013, the SR125 toll road did not accrue Series D interest due to the uncertain future events that may affect obligations under the Series D agreement.

6. Changes in long-term liabilities

Long-term liability activity for the year ended June 30, 2013, was as follows:

On June 30, 2013, sales tax revenue bonds and commercial paper notes consists of 2008 variable rate tax-exempt revenue bonds, 2010 fixed rate BABs, 2010 fixed rate tax-exempt revenue bonds, and 2012 fixed rate tax-exempt bonds issued by SANDAG that are collateralized by a pledge of the revenues from a one-half percent sales tax imposed within the County of San Diego. Long-term debt also consists of commercial paper notes issued by SANDAG. The

84 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

notes are payable from and secured by a pledge of the retail transactions and use tax subordinate to the pledge of such retail transactions and use tax which secures limited tax bonds issued or to be issued. Proceeds from the bonds and commercial paper debt are to be used primarily to fund certain transportation projects in the San Diego County region.

As maturity of commercial paper notes is 270 days or less, the commercial paper notes are classified as due within one year. Also, obligations for workers’ compensation and compensated absences payable are liquidated by the general fund. See Note I.E.12 for further clarification.

7. Pledged revenue

SANDAG and its component units have a number of debt issuances outstanding that are collateralized by the pledging of certain revenues. The amount and term of the remainder of these commitments are indicated in the debt service to maturity table presented in the accompanying notes. The purpose for which the proceeds of the related debt service payments as a percentage of pledged gross revenue are indicated in the table on the following page. These percentages also approximate the relationship of debt service to pledged revenues for the remainder of the term of the commitment:

Debt Service as a Fiscal year 2013 amount Fiscal Year 2013 Debt Percentage of Pledged Description of Pledged Revenue of Pledged Revenue Service Payments Revenue

Sales Tax $ 249,520,133 $ 71,567,668 29% Toll Revenue - Senior Debt 17,961,916 3,676,182 20% Toll Revenue - Subordinate Debt 3,420,561 2,788,803 82%

G. Transit capital contributions

The fund financial statements report capital outlay, which are current year capital project expenditures. In the government-wide statement of activities, certain expenditures are eliminated and capitalized as construction-in-progress capital assets in the statement of net position. During the current year, transit capital funding program revenues are $112,147,741. The program revenues represent the federal funds, state funds, and other local governmental funding for the construction-in-progress projects in the capital projects fund.

During the current fiscal year, $244,093,156 is reported as transit capital contributions. Of this amount, $238,429,780 of completed construction-in-progress projects, as well as title to the assets, if applicable, was transferred to other governmental agencies responsible for public transportation operations, $139,721,280 to MTS, $202,930 to NCTD, $66,117,692 to Caltrans, $169,429 to the City of Chula Vista, $10,419,148 to the City of Encinitas, $457,357 to the City of Escondido, $449,000 to the City of La Mesa, $576,528 to the City of San Diego, $590,108 to the City of San Marcos, $4,003,387 to the City of Oceanside, and $5,731,152 to the City of Imperial Beach, $44,956 to the Port of San Diego, and $9,946,813 to the California State Parks, Division of Boating

85 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

and Waterways, to reflect the other government’s custodial accountability for the operations and maintenance of the assets. These capital contributions represent a reduction in capital assets and are not restricted to specific programs per the government-wide statement of activities.

H. Risk management

SANDAG has a self-insured retention (deductible) for Bodily Injury and Property Damage Liability (including General Liability and Automobile Liability) claims of $1,000,000 per occurrence. Amounts in excess of the self-insurance are covered by commercial excess insurance up to $50,000,000. SANDAG purchases “all-risk” insurance for damage to its property up to $16,696,518 for the SANDAG main location with a per occurrence subject to a deductible of $5,000; and up to $363,051,845 for the SR 125 toll road with a per occurrence subject to a deductible of $50,000. In addition, SANDAG has insurance policies for costs arising from employee Workers’ Compensation claims, Auto Property, Mexican Auto Liability, Foreign Liability and Cyber Liability. Employment Practices Liability and Public Official Errors and Omissions Liability insurance are also covered to a maximum of $1,000,000 per occurrence, with excess liability insurance up to $50,000,000.

Claims expenditures and liabilities in connection with these insurance programs are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. Claim payments have not exceeded insurance coverage for each of the past three fiscal years.

There were no liability or property claims incurred, claims payments and claims payable as of and for the years ended June 30, 2012, and 2013.

I. Commitments and contingencies

SANDAG leases its office space and some of its copiers, and other miscellaneous office equipment, under various operating leases. Total lease expense for fiscal year 2013 was $2,713,086. Minimum annual lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases with terms in excess of one year were as follows:

Minimum Lease Fiscal Year Payment 2014 $ 2,629,920 2015 2,464,719 2016 2,540,775 Total $ 7,635,414

Amounts received or receivable from grant agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor agencies, principally the federal government. Any disallowed claims, including amounts already collected, may constitute a liability of the applicable funds. The amount, if any, of expenditures that may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time, although SANDAG expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.

86 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

J. Other post-employment benefits (OPEB)

1. Plan description

In March 1986, pursuant to requirements of the state retirement system in which SANDAG participates, SANDAG adopted a policy to provide post-retirement health care benefits to retired employees through California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS), a single- employer benefit plan, that covers all of the SANDAG employees. The plan does not issue a separate annual financial report.

2. Funding policy

Contributions to retirees are a fixed dollar amount equal to a maximum of $250 per month per each eligible retiree. The exception to this contribution is for nine retirees who were grandfathered into their 2007 SANDAG contribution with an increase in each year thereafter, in order to maintain a comparable benefit level. The expenditure was recorded when the Annual Required Contribution (ARC) of the employer was paid. Total payments to retirees for the year ended June 30, 2013, were $160,494. There were 54 retiree participants receiving post-employment health care benefits as of June 30, 2013.

SANDAG is required to contribute the ARC, an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement No. 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed thirty years. The ARC rate for fiscal year 2013 is 1.00 percent of annual covered payroll.

Contributions from SANDAG have been transferred to an irrevocable trust administered by CalPERS on behalf of SANDAG in which the plan assets held by the trust have been dedicated solely to providing benefits to retirees and their beneficiaries in accordance with the terms of the plan and are legally protected from creditors of the employer or the plan administrator. Accordingly, SANDAG contributions to this trust have been accounted for as reductions of the SANDAG liability for its net OPEB obligation.

3. Annual OPEB cost and net OPEB asset

The SANDAG annual OPEB cost (expense) is calculated based on the ARC of the employer, an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement No. 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed thirty years. The following table shows the components of the SANDAG annual OPEB cost for the year, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and changes in the SANDAG net OPEB asset for these benefits:

87 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

Annual required contribution $ 215,746 Interest on net OPEB obligation (36,771) Adjustment to annual required contribution 34,534 Annual OPEB cost (expense) $ 213,509 Contributions made (including premiums paid) (215,746) Increase in net OPEB asset $ (2,237) Net OPEB asset—beginning of year (520,841) Net OPEB asset—end of year $ (523,078)

4. Annual OPEB cost

The SANDAG annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost to be contributed to the plan, and the net OPEB obligation are as follows:

Fiscal Annual Percentage of Net Year OPEB Annual OPEB OPEB Ended Cost Cost Contributed Asset 6/30/2011 $ 155,253 435.0%$ 520,113 6/30/2012 154,526 100.5% 520,841 6/30/2013 215,746 101.0% 523,078

5. Funded status and funding progress

The funded status of the plan as of June 30, 2011, which is the most recent actuarial study, was as follows:

Actuarial accrued liability (AAL) $ 3,173,833 Actuarial value of plan assets 2,333,013 Unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) $ 840,820 Funded ratio (actuarial value of plan assets/AAL) 73.5% Covered payroll (active plan members) $ 21,487,126 UAAL as a percentage of covered payroll 3.9%

Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the annual required contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information following the notes to the basic financial statements, presents multiyear trend information that shows whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits.

88 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

6. Actuarial methods and assumptions

Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.

In the June 30, 2011, actuarial valuation, the following actuarial methods and assumptions were as follows:

Description Method/Assumption Actuarial Method Entry Age Normal Cost Actuarial Assumptions: Discount Rate 7.61% Projected Salary Increases 3.25% per annum, in aggregate Inflation Rate 3.00%

The actuarial assumptions included an annual healthcare cost trend rate of 7.0 to 7.5 percent initially, reduced by decrements of 0.5 percent to 5.0 percent after five years. The unfunded actuarial accrued liability is being amortized over an initial 30 years using the level-percentage-of-pay method on a closed-basis. The remaining amortization period at June 30, 2011, is assumed to be 25 years. Any assets of the plan will be valued on a market value basis.

The retirement age for active employees was determined according to the retirement rates under the PERS pension plan. The pre-retirement turnover was determined according to the termination rates under the PERS pension plan. The pre-retirement and post-retirement mortality rates were determined under the PERS pension plan. It was assumed 95 percent of active employees meeting eligibility requirements will elect retiree health coverage at retirement. Since the retiree pays 100 percent of the cost for spouse coverage, spouse coverage during retiree’s lifetime is not explicitly valued. Fifty percent of covered retirees are assumed to have spouses continue coverage upon their death. Female spouses are assumed to be three years younger than male spouses. Future retirees are assumed to elect medical plan coverage based on similar (50 percent HMO and 50 percent PPO) elections of current retirees.

The valuation was based on the medical premiums paid by SANDAG for insurance coverage. The valuation assumes SANDAG is exempt from the valuation of any medical plan rate subsidy. The expected monthly medical costs at the valuation date for future retirees is as follows:

PPO HMO Non-Medicare Eligible $ 636 $ 513 Medicare Eligible 405 294

K. Retirement plan

1. Plan description

SANDAG contributes to the CalPERS, an agent multiple-employer public employees retirement system, defined benefit pension plan that acts as a common investment and administrative agent for participating public entities within the state of California. A menu of benefit provisions, as well as other requirements, are established by state statutes within the Public Employees’ Retirement Law. SANDAG selects optional benefit provisions from the benefit menu by contracting with PERS and adopts those benefits through local resolution. Copies of the PERS annual financial report may be obtained from the PERS Executive Office, 400 P Street, Sacramento, California 95814.

Employees in regular, limited term, or tolling operations personnel positions start participating in PERS upon employment. Temporary, intern, part-time, and seasonal (TIPS) employees may gain eligibility for PERS if they have worked 1,000 hours or more in a fiscal year. Membership becomes effective the first day of the following pay period once the eligibility requirement has been met. Employees are eligible to retire at age 50 with at least five years of credited service. Annual retirement benefits are determined based on age at retirement, the length of membership service, and the amount of earnings based on the highest 12 consecutive months’ full-time equivalent monthly pay. PERS also provides death and disability benefits.

2. Funding policy

The contribution requirements of the plan members are established by state statute, and the employer contribution rate is established and may be amended by PERS. Eligible SANDAG employees participate in one of three different retirement plans offered by PERS. The member contribution rate for each plan is described below:

PERS Retirement Plan Employee/Member Contribution 2.7% at 55 years The member contribution rate is 8.0 percent of gross salary. . For employees hired prior to July 1, 2009, SANDAG paid 6.0 percent of the member contribution in fiscal year 2013. Employees paid the remaining 2.0 percent contribution amount. . Employees hired after July 1, 2009 pay the full 8.0 percent member contribution. 2.0% at 60 years The member contribution rate is 7.0 percent of gross salary. Employees in this plan pay the full amount of the member contribution. 2.0% at 62 years The member contribution rate is 6.25 percent of gross salary. Employees in this plan pay the full amount of the member contribution.

SANDAG is required to contribute the actuarially-determined remaining amounts necessary to fund the benefits for its members. The actuarial methods and assumptions used are those adopted by the PERS Board of Administration. The Annual Pension Cost (APC) rate for fiscal year 2013 was 18.157 percent of annual covered payroll.

90 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

Readers of this document are advised to refer directly to the full disclosure of actuarial and funding practices of the multi-employer CalPERS system, which this agency does not control. CalPERS may employ actuarial techniques such as extended smoothing and amortization periods that would result in future increases in required employer contributions which are not reflected in these financial statements, particularly in the event of any future changes in governmental financial reporting standards and systemwide funding practices. Further information on its financial practices should be requested from CalPERS.

Refer to the Required Supplementary Information for the schedule of funding progress for the post-employment defined benefits plan , which presents multi-year trend information regarding the actuarial value of plan assets increases/decreases relative to the actuarial accrued liability for benefits over time.

3. Annual pension costs

An employer reports an APC equal to the Annual Required Contribution (ARC) plus an adjustment for the cumulative difference between the APC and the employer’s actual plan contributions for the year. The cumulative difference is called the Net Pension Obligation (NPO).

THREE-YEAR TREND INFORMATION FOR PERS

Pension Cost APC Fiscal Year (APC) Contributed NPO 6/30/2011$ 2,634,468 100% - 6/30/2012 3,125,140 100% - 6/30/2013 3,845,918 100% -

A summary of principle assumptions and methods used to determine the ARC is shown below:

Average Remaining Period 30 Years as of the Valuation Date Asset Valuation Method 15 Year Smoothed Market Actuarial Assumptions: Investment Rate of Return 7.50% (net of administrative expenses) Projected Salary Increases 3.30% to 14.20% depending on age, service, and type of employment Inflation 2.75% Payroll Growth 3.00% Individual Salary Growth A merit scale varying by duration of employment coupled with an assumed annual inflation component of 2.75% and an annual production growth of 0.25%.

Initial unfunded liabilities are amortized over a closed period that depends on the plan’s date of entry into PERS. Subsequent plan amendments are amortized as a level percent of pay over a closed 20-year period. Gains and losses that occur in the operation of the plan are amortized over a 30-year rolling period, which results in an amortization of about 6 percent of unamortized gains and losses each year. If the plan’s accrued liability exceeds the actuarial value of plan assets,

91 San Diego Association of Governments Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

then the amortization payment on the total unfunded liability may not be lower than the payment calculated over a 30-year amortization period.

4. Funded status and funding progress for PERS plan

The funded status of the plan as of June 30, 2012, which is the most recent actuarial valuation, was as follows:

Actuarial accrued liability (AAL) $ 101,729,341 Actuarial value of plan assets 77,002,421 Unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) $ 24,726,920 Funded ratio (actuarial value of plan assets/AAL) 75.7% Covered payroll (active plan members) $ 17,892,856 UAAL as a percentage of covered payroll 138.2%

L. Prior period adjustments

SANDAG wrote off the remaining unamortized cost of debt issuance for the 2008 Series ABCD bonds, 2010 Series A & B bonds, and 2012 Series A bonds in accordance with the implementation of GASB No. 65. The effect of this change on the beginning net position is a reduction of $6,256,132.

SANDAG reclassified certain items previously classified as deferred revenue in accordance with the implementation of GASB No. 65. The effect of this change on the beginning net position is an increase of $2,498,957 to fund balance and net position.

The net changes are summarized below:

Governmental Fund Balance Net Position Balances at June 30, 2012 $ 867,922,479 $ 126,820,426 Unamortized cost of debt issuance - (6,256,132) Deferred revenue reclassification 2,498,957 2,498,957

Balances at June 30, 2012, restated $ 870,421,436 $ 123,063,251

M. Subsequent event

In an effort to streamline operations of the prepaid fare media sales program, a large portion of the program was transferred to MTS on July 1, 2013. This move transferred approximately 75 percent of the prepaid fare media sales special revenue fund with the remaining 25 percent being transferred in approximately two years. This move will allow MTS, the largest user and recipient of the prepaid fare media sales program, to manage the program in house, thereby eliminating certain external costs.

San Diego Association of Governments Notes to Required Supplementary Information For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

A. Budgetary information

Formal budget integration is employed as a management control device for the general fund, special revenue funds, the debt service fund, and the capital project fund. Budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with GAAP. The general fund, special revenue funds, and capital project fund have legally adopted annual program budgets.

After the annual program budget is adopted, the Board of Directors can legally amend the budget at any time during the fiscal year to incorporate new grants or contracts which may become available during the year. Management can legally amend or transfer appropriations between programs or projects within the adopted or amended budget, once the budget has been approved, up to a maximum of $100,000 with monthly reporting of these delegated budget amendments to the Board of Directors. However, management may not exceed the authorization of any individual fund. The fund level is the legal level of control (the expenditure level on which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations) for each budget for which data are presented in the annual financial report.

For the Commission sales tax projects special revenue fund, the annual program budget is based on expected sales tax revenue receipts. The expenditures budget reflects the appropriate program split in accordance the TransNet Extension Ordinance based on those expected sales tax revenue receipts. After the annual budget is adopted, the Board of Directors can legally amend the budget at any time during the fiscal year to incorporate changes in expected sales tax revenues.

Encumbrances represent commitments related to unperformed contracts for goods or services. Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the expenditure of resources are recorded to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is utilized in the governmental funds. For budgeting purposes, encumbrances lapse at year-end and may be reappropriated in the following year.

B. Additional appropriations or amendments

1. General fund

Amendments to the general fund were approved by the Board of Directors to increase costs and cost recovery for staffing of the new Department of Operations and additional staffing in various other departments.

2. TransNet fund

TransNet fund appropriations were increased to recognize revisions made to several large capital project budgets, primarily in Interstate 5 Corridor, I-805 Corridor, State Route 76 Corridor, Blue Line Improvement projects, and the Los Angeles-San Diego-San Luis Obispo Rail Corridor Agency (LOSSAN) project, as approved by the Board of Directors.

San Diego Association of Governments Notes to Required Supplementary Information, Continued For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

3. Commission sales tax projects fund

Amendments were made to the Commission sales tax projects fund in fiscal year 2013 to reflect an increase in sales tax revenue projections, as approved by the Board of Directors.

1 Beginning in 2010, the methodology for accruing sales tax changed and the 2010 amount was restated. Prior years are not restated. The comparability impact between years is minimal since each year represents 12 months of sales tax. Note: Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified in order to present comparable results.

Note: The number of government employees is more appropriately represented by functional department than the functional levels used in the government-wide statement of activities due to the cross functional nature of SANDAG’s employees and activities. Individual employees generally work on several functions. Note: Operating indicators of demand or level of service by functions used in the government-wide statement of activities are not available due to the nature of functional services provided by SANDAG, a special-purpose government. Note: Indicators of the volume, usage, or nature of capital assets is not applicable since upon construction-in-progress (CIP) project completion, the project's entire amount of the CIP, as well as the legal title of the property and equipment, if applicable, is transferred as contributed capital to other governmental agencies to reflect the other government’s custodial accountability for the operations and maintenance of the assets. The remaining capital assets balance is for the general government function, for which indicators are not available.

FY2014 Appropriations Omnibus

As we reported earlier this week, House and Senate negotiators reached agreement on a $1.1 trillion omnibus spending bill that will fund government agencies through the end of FY 2014. The House passed the measure on Wednesday, with a bipartisan vote of 359-67. The Senate will finish work on the bill before they depart for next week’s recess, with a vote likely occurring on Friday morning.

As we reported on January 14, the appropriations bill funds highway and transit programs at Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) authorized levels, which means an increase over FY 2013 funding. Here are some key details from the transportation section of the bill:

• Federal-Aid Highway funding comes in at $40.2 billion. This is the MAP-21 authorized level and over $550 million more than the FY 2013 figure ($39.6 billion). • Overall, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) program level is $ 10.7 billion, with $2.1 billion from the general fund. The measure provides for the MAP-21 authorized level of $8.6 billion in transit formula funding from the Mass Transit Account, an increase from the $8.47 billion provided in FY 2013. • New Starts funding will increase to $ 2.1 billion in FY 2014, with a combination of $1.9 billion in FY 2014 dollars and the addition of unused funds from previous years. The conference report notes this is sufficient to fund all the Full Funding Grant Agreement projects at their projected levels for 2014. New Starts funding in FY 2013 was $1.86 billion. • National Infrastructure Investment (Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery or TIGER program), funded at $474 million in FY 2013, is provided with $600 million for FY 2014. • Like last year, high-speed rail receives no funding. • Operating grants from Amtrak are funded at $340 million, a decrease from the FY 2013 level of $472 million. However, Amtrak’s capital and debt service funding is increased from $909.9 million in FY 2013 to $1.05 billion in FY 2014; and they will have increased flexibility to cover operating losses from the capital account if needed. Amtrak-related policy riders include overtime limits on Amtrak employees and a prohibition of federal funding for routes where Amtrak offers a discount of 50 percent or more off normal peak fares. • Language throughout the transportation section stresses the importance of private-sector funding for infrastructure projects.

2 Funding for San Ysidro Port of Entry

One important funding consideration provided in the FY 2014 omnibus is $128.3 million for new construction at the San Ysidro Port of Entry from the General Services Administration (GSA). (Specifically, the money comes from GSA’s Federal Buildings Fund.) In addition, reprogramming language included in the omnibus gives the project $97.7 million of unused funding from previous years, meaning that Phase III of San Ysidro, the next part of the project being undertaken, is fully funded, at $226 million. Phase III (which is being funding before Phase II) involves creation of a new southbound connection to Mexico and 17 additional northbound inspection booths.

Reauthorization - House T&I Hearing/Foxx Speaks at the Transportation Research Board

Reauthorization was in the headlines of a few events this week, starting with a House T&I hearing on Tuesday looking at “Building the Foundation for Surface Transportation Reauthorization.” Committee Chairman Bill Shuster (R-PA) indicated during the hearing that he plans to hold a variety of hearings and roundtables during the next few months in preparation for putting a bill on the House floor before the August recess. All of the witnesses - Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin (R), representing the National Governors Association; Stuart Levenick, group president for Caterpillar Inc.; Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed, representing the U.S. Conference of Mayors; and Lawrence Hanley, international president of the Amalgamated Transit Union, stressed the importance of a long-term bill. However, there was no widespread consensus on what we all know to be the biggest problem – additional revenue.

And in fact, it now appears that the Highway Trust Fund (HTF) will run out of money in September, making it necessary for Congress to step in with general fund dollars or another solution before MAP-21 expires on September 30. A new HTF tracker is being provided to the public and will be updated at http://www.dot.gov/highway-trust-fund-ticker each month. Current numbers show that the Mass Transit Account, unlike the HTF, will maintain a positive balance at the end of FY 2014.

The HTF tracker was introduced during Department of Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx’s speech at the Transportation Research Board’s annual meeting. Foxx spoke about the challenges facing infrastructure investment in the country and reiterated one funding idea that the Administration has floated before – that of using revenue from a corporate tax overhaul to add to the pot.

However, with corporate tax reform stalled in Congress, it appears unlikely this is an idea that can raise necessary revenue before MAP-21 expires. Foxx also indicated that he will be putting out an “integrated transportation plan” that incorporates all modes by the end of the year. He described it as “a fact-based plan that lays out where the country is and where we're likely to go from a demographic, population, and economic perspective so that we can shape transportation policy around that.”

3 Rogoff Leaving FTA for Trottenberg Post

The Department of Transportation announced on Wednesday that FTA Administrator Peter Rogoff is being named Acting Undersecretary for Policy. This is likely a precursor to his nomination for the job, which will require Senate confirmation. Deputy FTA Administrator Therese McMillan will step into the Acting FTA Administrator role.

Senate Banking MAP-21 Implementation Hearing

Mr. Rogoff testified this morning at Senate Banking hearing giving a “Progress Report on Public Transportation under MAP-21.” David Wise, Director of the Physical Infrastructure Team from the Government Accountability Office (GAO), also testified. Rogoff provided an update on individual programs and rulemakings. Wise discussed GAO’s view that tough funding challenges can be helped with “sound capital investment decisions and that it can help transit agencies use their funds more efficiently.” GAO used reports on transit asset management and bus rapid transit to illustrate these benefits. The hearing also included a discussion on coordinating transit services for the transportation-disadvantaged. Rogoff testified that he believes that the federal government is working on getting rid of the “stovepipes” between agencies that limit efficiency.

Many of the senators sitting on the Banking Committee hail from rural states, so were interested in assessing the FTA’s commitment to protecting rural transit agencies from some of the regulatory hurdles faced by the larger systems. Finally, Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) asked Mr. Rogoff about delays in grant monies the agencies in his state are experiencing. Mr. Rogoff said that he was unaware of such delays but would further investigate.

California High-Speed Rail Hearing

The House Subcommittee on Railroads, Hazardous Materials, and Pipeline held a hearing on California’s High-Speed Rail Project on Wednesday. California is using federal American Recovery and Reinvestment Act dollars to fund the first phase of the project. However, Railroads Subcommittee Chair Jeff Denham (R-CA) indicated that, in light of two recent court decisions, he will be introducing legislation to prevent the Federal Railroad Administration from spending any more federal dollars on the project until California can show it has the matching funds.

House T&I Forms P3 Special Panel

Following last year’s special panel on freight movement in the nation, House T&I Chairman Shuster announced that the Committee’s next special panel will focus on public-private partnerships (P3) across all forms of transportation. The panel, which will be chaired by Rep. John Duncan (R- TN) and Rep. Michael Capuano (D-MA) as Ranking Member, has been tasked with analyzing the current state of P3s in the United States in order to:

• Identify the role P3s play in development and delivery of transportation and infrastructure projects in the U.S., and on the U.S. economy;

4 • If/how P3s enhance delivery and management of transportation and infrastructure projects beyond the capabilities of government agencies or the private sector acting independently; and • How to balance the needs of the public and private sectors when considering, developing, and implementing P3 projects.

Remaining members of the special panel are:

Republicans Candice S. Miller (MI) Lou Barletta (PA) Tom Rice (SC) Mark Meadows (NC) Scott Perry (PA)

Democrats Peter A. DeFazio (OR) Eleanor Holmes Norton (DC) Rick Larsen (WA) Sean Patrick Maloney (NY)

Under the committee’s rules, the Chairman may appoint special panels to serve for a period of six months. The time limit means there is a prospect that the panel’s recommendations would come in time to be included in surface transportation legislation slated for action this year. This panel will be challenged to arrive at any sweeping recommendations on a bipartisan basis. Leading Democratic members of the panel have been strong opponents of P3 in years gone by. We will be in touch with Members of both parties on the panel and their staffs to get a sense of their direction.

Partnership to Build America Act Introduced in Senate

Senators Roy Blunt (R-MO) and Michael Bennet (D-CO) introduced a companion bill to a House bipartisan bill introduced last year and led by freshman Democrat John Delaney (MD). The legislation establishes a $50 billion “American Infrastructure Fund” to help finance high priority infrastructure projects in the areas of transportation, energy, communications, water, and education infrastructure. The fund would be built with bonds purchased by U.S. companies that would be allowed to repatriate a certain amount of their overseas earnings tax free for every $1.00 they invest in the bonds.

The House bill (H.R. 2084) has 25 Democrats and 25 Republicans signed on as cosponsors. The bipartisan mix cosponsoring the Senate bill (S. 1957) includes Senators Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), Mark Begich (D-AK), Dan Coats (R-IN), Lindsay Graham (R-SC), John Hoeven (R-ND) Angus King (I-ME), Mark Kirk (R-IL), Mary Landrieu (D-LA), and Mark Warner (D-VA).

President Obama to Release Budget on March 4

The White House today announced the President’s FY 2015 budget will be delivered to Congress on March 4. This is one month later than the statutory deadline, but the Administration contends the extra time is required because of the lateness of enactment of fiscal 2014 appropriations.
