COUNCIL COMMUNICATION AGENDA TITLE: Public Hearing to Consider Resolution Modifying Transit Budget and Authorizing City Managerto Implement Modifications MEETING DATE: October 21,2009 PREPARED BY: Public Works Director RECOMMENDEDACTION: Conduct a public hearing to consider a resolution modifying the Transit budget and authorizing the City Manager to implement the modifications. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Asa result of recent actions related to adoption of the California State Budget, San Joaquin County Council of Governments staff has instructed local transit operators to reduce their Fiscal Year 2009/10 Transportation Development Act (TDA) revenue estimates by 20 percent. Federal revenue levels will remain the same as in the previous fiscal year. As a result, Lodi Transit revenues are expected to be $443,775 less than projected in the current budget. Transit service costs overall have been operating at lower than the budgeted level for the first four months of this fiscal year. As a result, operations costs through October are on track to come in approximately $70,000 below budget estimates. It is estimated the recommended service modifications will result in additional operation savings of approximately $50,000. This leaves a remaining projected deficit of $323,775 ($443,775 - $70,000 - $50,000) that must be offset by service reductions over the next eight months. It is crucial that quick action be taken to implement changes by November 1, 2009, in order to minimize the severity of service reductions. There are no undesignated reserves within the Transit Fund available for operations. An alternative to service reductions is to use General Fund revenues to cover all or part of the projected deficit. This is not a recommended alternative. Exhibit provides the projected revenues, expenditures, and financial statistics for Fiscal Year 2009/10. The subsidy per passenger on the Fixed Route service is $4.17 per passenger and $21.08 per passenger on Dial-A-RideNinel-ineservice. A series of public meetings has been held to inform the public about the pending service changes. Notices for the meetings have been posted on all transit buses, bus shelters, Lodi Station, LOEL Senior Center, and Hutchins Street Square and published in the Lodi News Sentinel and Stockton Record. In addition, a public outreach effort solicited feedback from transit passengers regarding the service modifications. The results of the public meetings and public outreach will be presented to City Council at the Public Hearing. The transit contract with MV Transportation requires that the City purchase a minimum of 40,000 revenue hours but no more than 50,000 revenue hours per year. Without any service modifications, this year's transit services are on course to operate at approximately 44,000 revenue hours. Lowering the transit APPROVED:m lair King, City Mpfiager K:\WP\TRANSIT\CPH_TransitReductions.docA10- 10112/2009 Public Hearing to Consider Resolution Modifying Transit Budget and Authorizing City Manager to Implement Modifications October 21, 2009 Page 2 services to the minimum operating level of 40,000 revenue hours generates only another $120,000 in additional cost savings. As a result, contract renegotiation is required to address the projected deficit. Contract renegotiation involves the resetting of fixed cost and revenue hour payments to MV Transportation that are determined by the mix of transit services, hours of operation, and days of operation. The attached draft contract amendment (Exhibit B) resets the range of revenue hours, the fixed costs, and the price per revenue hour. All other provisions of the existing contract remain in place. Staff diligently worked to evaluate several transit service scenarios that provide the most service to the most riders while providing a $323,775 cost reduction over the next eight months. The primary objectives included: 1) maintaining as many of the routes as possible, 2) affecting the fewest number of riders as possible, 3) addressing passenger input, and 4) reducing costs. Currently, the transit service operates as follows: Current Service Dial-A-RideNineLine Same Day All Days All Dial -A -Ride operating hours Service Fixed Route 5 routes Monday through Friday 6:15 a.m. —6:54 p.m. Dial-A-RideNineLine Monda throu h Friday 6:15 a.m. — 9:00 p.m. Fixed Route 4 routes Saturday and Sunda 7:45 a.m. —3:09 p.m. Dial-A-RideNineLine Saturday 7:45 a.m. —6:00 p.m. Dial-A-RideNineLine Sunda 7:45 a.m. —4:00 p.m. Express Route (3 routes) Monday through Friday 6:10 a.m. — 7:40 a.m. and 2:15 a.m. —3:40 p.m. All Transit Services 7 holidays (New Year's Day, No Service President's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Da Current Fares Fares to ride Fixed and Express Routes are $1.00 for general public and $0.50 for Seniors/Disabled/Medicare. With reservations, fares on Dial-A-RideNineLine are $5.00 for general public and $1.50 for Seniors/Disabled/Medicare. Without reservations or "Same Day Service" on Dial -A -Ride, fares are $10.00 for general public and $3.00 for Seniors/Disabled/Medicare. It costs passengers $1.00 more to ride outside the City limits (specifically, Woodbridge or Arbor Mobile Home Parkin Acampo per contract). Alternatives At the October 6th Shirtsleeve Session, staff presented the following Alternative A. This alternative has been very slightly modified to match the times with current schedules. Also, the Dial-A-RideNineLine K:\WP\TRANSIT\CPH_TransitReductions.doc 10/9/2009 Public Hearing to Consider Resolution Modifying Transit Budget and Authorizing City Manager to Implement Modifications October 21, 2009 Page 3 hours have been matched to the Express Route schedules in order to meet federal requirementsfor ADA paratransit: Alternative A Dial-A-RideNineLine Same Day Service All Days Not Available Fixed Route 5 routes Monda throu h Friday 7:45 a.m. —5:20 p.m. Express Route (3 routes) Monday through Friday 6:10 a.m. —7:40 a.m. and 2:15 a.m. —3:40 pm Fixed Route 4 routes Saturday and Sunday No Service Dial-A-RideNineLine Monday through Friday 6:10 a.m. —5:20 p.m. Dial-A-RideNineLine Saturday and Sunday No Service All Transit Services 10 holidays and 8 furlough days No Service Based on MV Transportation's funding model, the cost savings under Alternative A for the remaining eight months is $438,400. The total estimated revenue hours for Alternative A is 33,100 hours. At the Shirtsleeve Session, City Council suggested operating longer hours during the weekday to accommodate commuters (8 a.m. to 6 p.m.) and providing Saturday service (9 a.m. to 4 p.m.). Again, utilizing the current bus schedule Alternative B was developed and includes the following services: Alternative B Dial-A-RideNineLine Same Day Service All Days Not Available Fixed Route 5 routes Monday through Friday 7:45 a.m. —6:10 p.m. Express Route (3 routes) Monday through Friday 6:10 a.m. —7:40 a.m. and 2:15 a.m. —3:40 p.m. Fixed Route 4 routes Saturday 9:15 a.m. —3:08 p.m. Fixed Route 4 routes Sunday No Service Dial-A-RideNineLine Monda throu h Friday 6:10 a.m. —6:10 p.m. Dial-A-RideNineLine Saturday 9:15 a.m. —3:08 p.m. Dial-A-RideNineLine Sunday No Service All Transit Services 9 holidays (Nov. 25 & Dec. 24 added No Service Based on MV Transportation's fund ing model, the cost savings under Alternative B for the remaining eight months is $333,100. The total estimated revenue hours for Alternative B is 36,900 hours. The primary concern with any service modification is the number of passengers affected by the change. To summarize the number of affected passengers, Exhibit C presentsthe passenger statistics on an annual and daily basis for specifictimes and services. It is staffs objectiveto have the Council provide specific direction on the level of transit service and authorize the City Managerto negotiate and execute an amended contract with MV Transportation based K:\WP\TRANSMCPH TransitReductions.doc 10/9/2009 Public Hearing to Consider Resolution Modifying Transit Budget and Authorizing City Manager to Implement Modifications October 21, 2009 Page 4 on Council approved level of transit service. This allows service changes to be implemented by November 1, 2009. Delays in implementing operating cost savings measures will result in more service cuts over a shorter period of time. At the Shirtsleeve Session, the City Manager briefly discussed utilizing American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds. Based on discussions with San Joaquin Council of Governments staff, it is uncertain if we can amend the current ARRA capital transit grant prior to the end of the fiscal year. If this were possible, there might up to $150,000 available for transit operations. FISCAL IMPACT: The transit service modificationswill allow the City of Lodi to use available TDA, FTA, Measure K, transit fares, and other revenues to pay for transit operations for FY 2009/10. FUNDING AVAILABLE: No General Fund revenues are needed to cover the projected deficit for proposed service modifications. F. Wally S delin Public Wo cs Director Prepared by Paula J.

Before any final decisions are made I ask that you please consider these points... Cutting the weekday hours of operation would force people out of their early -morning - hour jobs as well as the 8 A M to 5 PM jobs. This does not give them enough time to make ittoworkand nowayto return home. Cutting Saturday and Sundays hoursof operation would force weekend employment with the same dilemma. People out of work means more of a drain on our cities budget by less spending in the city, lowing the tax revenue and more households asking and qualifyingfor the low-income utilities discount. Completely cutting lines on Sundays would further add to its tragic state, cutting many people from attending Sunday Church Services, lowering moral and increasing despair th roug hout the city. These cuts go further than just our tax generating job force; it greatly affects the children of our city as well. Our own Lodi Unified School District high schools start school at 7:20 A M and our elementary schools at 8:25 A M . This leaves our high scholars with no way to get to school and our elementary students conically late. Until our move to Lodi, for the last 19years I worked in the court system and in law enforcement. Facts show that when teens are left to their own device, many will get into trouble rather the go straight home. Vandalism, petty thefts and other crimes will rise. This will cause a raise in expenses' by additional maintenance (repairs on damaged/graffiti on city property) and a more need for the police force which raise cost via the Police Departmentand City maintenance Crews. What of those students that are in sports? For example... my son is a freshman on Tokay's Water Polo team. Practice doesn't end until 5:80-5:50 PM. Given that my son will have to walk home in the dark and the bad weather places him in a host of dangers. By cutting the days and hours of operation, you would be greatly increasingthe budget in other ways thus puttingthe savings at little to none.

Stephen Schwabauer City Attorney CLEMPUBNEAMNOTICESSNOtPMdoc 9114109 RESOLUTION NO. 2009- A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL MODIFYING THE TRANSIT BUDGET AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO IMPLEMENT THE MODIFICATIONS --------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------- WHEREAS, as a result of recent actions related to adoption of the California State Budget, San Joaquin County Council of Governments staff has instructed local transit operators to reduce their Fiscal Year 2009/10 Transportation Development Act (TDA) revenue estimates by 20 percent. Lodi Transit revenues are expected to be $443,000 less than projected in the current budget; and WHEREAS, Transit service costs overall have been operating at lower than the budgeted level for the first four months of this fiscal year, and as a result, operations costs through October are on track to come in approximately $70,000 below budget estimates. Recommended service modifications will result in additional operation savings of approximately $50,000, leaving a remaining projected deficit of $323,000 that must be offset by service reductions over the next eight months; and WHEREAS, a public hearing was set at the September 16, 2009, City Council meeting and a series of public meetings have been held to inform the public about the pending service changes; and WHEREAS, the transit contract with MV Transportation requires that the City purchase a minimum of 40,000 revenue hours but no more than 50,000 revenue hours per year. A contract renegotiation is required to address the projected deficit; and WHEREAS, contract renegotiation involves the resetting of fixed cost and revenue hour payments to MV Transportation that are determined by the mix of transit services, hours of operation, and days of operation; all other provisions of the existing contract remain in place; and WHEREAS, staff evaluated several transit service scenarios that provide the most service to the most riders while providing a $323,000 cost reduction over the next eight months. The primary objectives included: 1) maintaining as many of the routes as possible, 2) affecting the fewest number of riders as possible, 3) addressing passenger input, and 4) reducing costs; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council does hereby authorize the City Manager to enter into a revised agreement with MV Transportation to reduce costs by the following measures: 1. 2. 3. 4. Dated: October 21, 2009 I hereby certify that Resolution No. 2009- was passed and adopted by the City Council of the City of Lodi in a regular meeting held October 21, 2009, by the following vote: AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS — NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS — ABSENT: COUNCIL MEMBERS — ABSTAIN: COUNCIL MEMBERS — RAND JOHL City Clerk 2009-
