CITY OF LODI
COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
AGENDA TITLE: Set Public Hearing for November 18, 2009, to Consider Unmet Transit Needs in Lodi
MEETING DATE: October 21, 2009
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Seta public hearing for November 18, 2009, to consider unmet
transit needs in Lodi.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG) is required to
conduct an annual assessment of the existing transit system prior to
the allocation of Local Transportation Funds for non -transit
purposes (TDA Section 99401.5). SJCOG, the San Joaquin
Regional Transit District, and local jurisdictions are sponsoring several upcoming Unmet Transit Needs
hearings in San Joaquin County, including Lodi. Any comments received from those meetingswill be
communicated to City staff. It should be noted that many of the comments are given directly via email to
SJCOG staff throughout the year.
Unmet Transit Needs are defined as transportation services not currently provided to those residents who
use or would use public transportation regularly, if available, to meet their life expectations. SJCOG's
Social Services Transportation Committee (SSTAC) will evaluate the comments received based on a
reasonableness test of six criteria. The criteria include community acceptance, equity, potential ridership,
cost effectiveness, operational feasibility, and funding. The funding criterion requires the imposed
service does not cause the public agency to incur expenses in excess of the maximum allocation of TDA
funds. Completion of the Draft Unmet Transit Needs study is scheduled for February 2010 with adoption
of the Final Unmet Transit Needs study in April 2010.
FISCAL IMPACT: None.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: None required.
