ISSUE

In January 2013, we received 207 applications for 2013 Call funding. Over the past eight months, we have evaluated the applications, met with TAC and its Subcommittees, and TAC has held project sponsor appeals. Based on the evaluations and taking TAG's recommendations into consideration, we are recommending funding for 96 projects totaling $199.39 million. Board approval is necessary to program the funds to these 96 projects.

DISCUSSION

Background

Federal statute (Title 23 U.S.C. 134 (g) & (h)) and State statute (P.U.C. 130303) require that we prepare a Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) for Los Angeles County. The TIP allocates revenues across all surface transportation modes based on the planning requirements of the federal Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21).

We accomplish these mandates, in part, by programming transportation revenues through the Call process wherein Los Angeles County local agencies may apply for funding of regionally significant projects. These regionally significant projects are often beyond the fiscal capabilities of local sponsors. The Call process provides an opportunity for these additional projects to be funded to meet the County's transportation needs. The Call implements MTA's multimodal programming responsibilities for Los Angeles County and the Board-adopted 2009 LRTP. The Call process awards funds on a competitive basis for projects that successfully demonstrate their mobility benefits.

Call for Projects Overview

Work on the 2013 Call process began in April 2012, earlier than typical by four months, in response to the 2011 Call for Projects Survey which identified the need for additional time for potential applicants to complete applications and avoid the holiday timeframe as well as to conduct additional outreach to local agency staff. The additional outreach and time resulted in applications received from three agencies which have not participated in the Call since prior to 2001- Bell, Cudahy, and La Verne. Applications from two of these agencies have been recommended for funding in this Call.

MTA's TAC and its Subcommittees were consulted at various steps throughout the development process. In addition to monthly updates before T AC and the Streets & Freeways (S&F) Subcommittee, staff met approximately 10 times with the 2013 Call Working Group, comprised of members of the S&F Subcommittee, Bus Operations Subcommittee (80S), Transportation Demand Management/Air Quality (TDM/AQ)

2013 Countywide Call for Projects Page 2

Subcommittee, and Local Transit Systems Subcommittee (L TSS), to consider potential technical changes for incorporation into the 2013 Call Draft Application Package.

In October 2012, the Board approved the 2013 Call Application Package, which provided instructions to project applicants. We hosted a Call Workshop on October 10, 2012 and conducted workshops in the six subregions which requested them.

A total of 207 project applications were received in January 2013, and the technical evaluation process began. This evaluation was conducted by internal technical teams who reviewed applications within each of the transportation modal categories using the Board-approved application requirements and evaluation criteria. After the Board approved the Preliminary Project Funding Strategy in June 2013, a preliminary project recommendations list was developed, posted online, and mailed to project applicants and TAC members in late June/early July.

Fund Estimate Assumptions

In April 2013, the Board adopted a preliminary fund estimate of $199.39 million for the five-year Call period. The Board also adopted the preliminary modal category funding marks based on federal, state and local fund forecasts used to develop the 2009 LRTP.

Forecasts for the local fund sources are consistent with the 2009 LRTP and MTA's Debt Policy. Federal funding forecasts are based on historical trends, but are adjusted to reflect federal Highway Trust fund growth rates, changes in future federal reauthorizations, and possible downside risks (e.g., possible reductions in amounts of Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement [CMAQ] Program funds and Transportation Alternative [TA] Program funds for FY 2015 and beyond). State fund forecasts are also based on historical trends, but do not reflect growth due to higher priority needs such as State Highway Safety, Maintenance, and Operating costs. The specific funding sources and amounts chosen for the 2013 Call are subject to change based upon the projects finally selected and other factors, including project eligibility and funding availability.

The Call for Projects process has been used by the Board to program Transportation Enhancements funding since 1991. In its MAP-21 legislation last year, Congress consolidated the Transportation Enhancements program into a new program entitled the TA program. As part of implementing MAP-21, the State Legislature is now considering using the Governor's Active Transportation Program proposal to guide the future use of these new TA funds. The Governor's proposal would consolidate the programming and administration of federal funding from theTA program, other federal funds, and funding from several state programs into a single state program called the Active Transportation Program. The CTC and/or SCAG would be responsible for project selection.

The consolidation of the TA program into the Active Transportation Program means that $28.6 million in funds assumed to be available for the Call for Projects must now be secured through this new programming process. There are $49.5 million of bicycle and


pedestrian improvement projects recommended for funding in this Call. We propose to require all recommended Bicycle and Pedestrian projects to reapply through the new Active Transportation program. If at least $28.6 million is secured through the Active Transportation program, MTA will fund up to $20.9 million of recommended Bicycle and Pedestrian projects that do not successfully compete in the new Active Transportation program process. In the event that the up to $20.9 million is insufficient, we would return to the Board with a final recommendation to address any potential shortfall. If the $28.6 million targeted amount from the Active Transportation Program is exceeded, MTA's Call for Projects funds will be freed-up for future Call for Project programming in a later cycle in a category to be determined by the Board. Once the State Active Transportation Program is established and guidelines are issued, staff will return to the Board with a final recommendation for project funding that is most advantageous to maximizing funds for Los Angeles County.

Technical Advisorv Committee (TAC)

A special TAC meeting was held on July 24th to review the preliminary project scores and funding recommendations, and again on July 30th to hear appeals from 1 0 agencies on 17 projects. TAC concurred with staffs preliminary modal recommendations in the Regional Surface Transportation Improvements, Goods Movement Improvements, Transportation Demand Management, Transit Capital, and Transportation Enhancement Activities modes. They recommended funding for one additional project in each of the following modes - Signal Synchronization and Bus Speed Improvements, Bicycle Improvements, and Pedestrian Improvements. Staff concurred with the TAC recommendations.

Attachment A is a matrix of staff responses to the TAC motions.

Final Recommendations

In formulating our final funding recommendations, TAC motions were reviewed. Attachment C is the Board resolution certifying that Los Angeles County has the resources to fund the projects in the FY 2013-2014 Regional TIP. Attachment D provides additional background information on funding sources for the 2013 Call, while Attachment E provides a description of each project recommended for funding.

DETERMINATION OF SAFETY IMPACT

The 2013 Call will not have any adverse safety impacts on our employees and patrons.


FINANCIAL IMPACT

A total of $199.39 million is recommended to fund the 2013 Call listed in Attachment A. Call funding is subject to the availability of state and federal funding as planned. Should state and federal funding be reduced, we will return to the Board with recommendations on how to fund all of MTA's programs, including the 2013 Call. There is no funding programmed for projects approved through the 2013 Call in the FY 2013-14 Budget. Funding of $199.39 million for the 2013 Call will be included in FYs 2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18, and 2018-19 budgets in cost centers 0441- Subsidies to Others and 0442- Subsidies to Others. Since this is a multi-year program, the cost center manager and Executive Directors of Countywide Planning and Highway Program will be accountable for budgeting the costs in future years.

Impact to Budget

Proposition C 1 0% and 25% local sales tax funds will be included in the fiscal years' budgets as outlined above. The sources of funds for these activities are Proposition C 10%, Proposition C 25%, Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ), Regional Improvement Program (RIP), and Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP). The Proposition C 1 0% and Proposition C 25% funds are not eligible for Metro bus and rail operating and capital expenditures.

While the source of CMAQ funds is eligible for operating purposes or transit capital, there are no additional operating expenses eligible under CMAQ funding. However, CMAQ funds could be used for transit capital purposes. Los Angeles County must strive to fully obligate its share of CMAQ funding by May 1st of each year, otherwise we risk its redirection to other California Regional Transportation Planning Agencies by Caltrans. We recommend the use of long-lead-time CMAQ funds as planned to ensure utilizing our federal funds.

RSTP funds in this action could be used for our transit capital needs. Also, while these funds cannot be used directly for our bus or rail operating needs, they could free-up other such operating eligible funds by exchanging the funds used for our paratransit provider, Access Services Incorporated. Since these RSTP funds originate in the Highway portion (Title 23) of SAFETEA-LU, they are among the most flexible funds available to us. We do not recommend this action.

ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED

The Board may suggest alternative projects for funding through the 2013 Call process. Projects added to the recommended list will result in other projects either moving off the funded list or projects receiving reduced levels of funding.

The Board could also choose to defer the 2013 Call. This is not recommended because the 2009 LRTP assumed the Call would continue. In addition, the Call provides funding to local agencies for transportation improvements, allowing local agencies to partner


with us in improving the transportation system, thereby fulfilling our statutory transportation programming responsibilities.

NEXT STEPS

Upon Board approval of the 2013 Call, the TIP will formally be transmitted to SCAG and the CTC for processing. This same TIP will be amended into the 2014 STIP.

Project sponsors will be notified of the final funding awarded by the Board and the sponsor's local match necessary to proportionally match awarded funds. A MTA-sponsored workshop will be scheduled with successful project sponsors for October 2013 to review and discuss MTNproject sponsor administrative conditions, and federal, state and local programming requirements.

Through the 2013 Call development process, MTA acknowledges the opportunity to use federal and state funds to accelerate the programming of approved projects. Upon Board approval of the 2013 Call, we will notify successful project sponsors of the possibility for advancing federal and state funds to earlier years in the 2013 Call cycle. As part of this notification, instructions will be provided as to the deadline for submitting requests and the criteria we will use to evaluate the submittals. To provide all project sponsors equal access to earlier year funding, all requests will be evaluated concurrently after the submittal deadline. If more requests are received than available funds, project advancement will be based on the project's ranking as determined by its overall evaluation score and the readiness of the project for early delivery.

After Board approval of the Call, the following schedule reflects the next steps.

Successful Project Sponsor Workshop SCAG Approves Regional TIP Caltrans Approves Regional TIP CTC Adopts the 2014 State TIP U.S. Department of Transportation Approves Federal TIP

ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION

New TIP Countywide Call for Projects Programming

MTA recommends programming $199.39 million over five years to projects in eight modal categories. All projects recommended for funding are listed in Attachment B and are described in Attachment F. Although this TIP Countywide Call for Projects action will program funds for several years, Board action would authorize expenditure for the first year of the program only (FY 2014-2015). Board action will be required annually through the TIP Countywide Call for Projects Recertification process to authorize the expenditure of funds for each subsequent fiscal year. After projects are approved for funding by the Board, specific fund sources will be assigned to each project based on fund source eligibility requirements and in an effort to leverage the maximum amount of State and Federal funds for the County.

California Transportation Commission

Two key fund estimate assumptions revolve around the State Highway Operations and Protection Program's (SHOPP) financial constraints, and the disposition of sales tax on gas revenues. For the second STIP cycle in a row, SHOPP is experiencing unprecedented financial constraints and will need all the available State Highway Account (SHA) capacity. The SHA capacity will be used to fund Caltrans operating costs, the SHOPP program's capital outlay, support, construction costs increases, rights-of-way and the SHOPP minor program. Therefore, no per gallon gas tax revenues will be available for the 2014 STIP because all available gas tax revenues are consumed by operations and maintenance expenses for the existing State Highway System.

The disposition of the sales tax on gas revenues is the other important item in the 2014 STIP Fund Estimate. Currently, the sales tax on gas is subject to two different statutory arrangements: Proposition 42 and the "Spillover" into the Public Transportation Account (PTA). Proposition 42 enjoys a higher level of protection from the State's General Fund deficit needs than does the Spillover into the PTA.

Los Angeles County Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP)

In addition to the TIP Countywide Call for Projects, the Los Angeles County Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP) consists of the following three components:

1. The TIP Local Program;

2. The Transit TIP; and

3. The State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP).

2013 Countywide Call for Projects Attachment D Page 1

ATTACHMENT D

The TIP Local Program consists of projects added to the RTIP at the discretion of local agencies. This includes all projects that are required to be included in the RTIP and that are funded with local, state and/or federal revenues.

The Transit TIP consists of transit projects added to the RTIP by Los Angeles County transit operators. This includes all capital and operating projects financed with formula funds, including the MTA's Bus Capital Allocation Formula. The Transit TIP will be consistent with the Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP). The SRTP will be submitted to the Board in a separate report.

The STIP consists of projects funded with Regional Improvement Program (RIP) (75%) revenues nominated by MTA and lntermodal Transportation Improvement Program (ITIP) (25%) programmed at the discretion of the CTC. This Call has programmed projects that could receive STIP funds, if available, between FY 2015 and FY 2019. After the Board action, some projects approved through the Call process will be submitted to the CTC for RIP funds.
