AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to File Claim for 2010/11 Transportation
Development Act (TDA) Funds in the Amount of $1,710,558 from Local
Transportation Fund (LTF) and $217,922 from State Transit Assistance (STA) Fund
MEETING DATE: May 18, 2011
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution authorizing City Manager to file claim for 2010/11
Transportation Development Act (TDA) funds in the amount of
$1,710,558 from Local Transportation Fund (LTF) and $217,922
from State Transit Assistance (STA) Fund.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Each year, the City of Lodi receives an apportionment of TDA funds to
support Lodi's transit operations and pedestrian/bicycle costs. These
are State transportation funds that are primarily for non -vehicular
(transit) transportation but can be used on roads if transit needs are being met. They are channeled
through the San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG), our regional transportation planning agency.
The claim for Fiscal Year 2010/11 is $1,710,558 from LTF and $217,922 from STA, as follows:
LTF STA Total
Transit Operations $1,607,214 $32,249 $1,639,463
Transit Capital Projects 182,000 182,000
Pedestrian/Bicycle Projects 50,000 50,000
SJCOG Planning and Administration 53.344 3.673 57,017
Total $1,710,558 $217,922 $1,928,480
As shown above, the LTF and STA funds will be utilized for transit operations, transit capital projects (CNG
fueling station improvements, signs, shelters, etc.), pedestrian and bicycle projects (sidewalk repairs), and
$57,017 for SJCOG planning and administration. Both the LTF and STA funds include unclaimed carryover
funds from FY 09/10 in the amount of $125,335 ($81,435 for operations and $43,900 for pedestrian/bicycle) and
$1,598, respectively. SJCOG plans to approve the TDA claim on May 26, 2011, following City Council's
approval. The City Manager may make minor adjustments when filing the final claim, based upon SJCOG
review and comments.
For FY 2011/12, SJCOG estimates Lodi's TDA revenues to be $1.5 million. Lodi staff does not anticipate a
transit service reduction next fiscal year, assuming Lodi continues to annually receive $120,000 in Measure K
renewal funds to operate our Express Routes. Staff will continue to closely monitor our revenue sources.
The transit operations, GrapeLine, Dial -A -Ride, and VineLine, are fully funded with TDA, Federal Transit
Administration funds, fare revenues and other competitive fund sources. Transit is not dependent on any
General Fund money. We intend to continue to use TDA funds for transit, pedestrian, and bicycle -related
projects and maintenance as much as possible.
FISCAL IMPACT: This action will allow the City to claim and receive TDA funding for
FY 2010/11, which will pay for on-going operations and capital needs.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: None required. Jk
