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. The funding is channeled through the San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG), our regional transportation planning agency. The claim for Fiscal Year 2013/14 is $2,175,304 from LTF and $171,375 from STA, as follows: Transit Operations Transit Capital Projects Pedestrian/Bicycle Projects SJCOG Planning and Administration Total LTF STA Total $1,043,980 1,043,980 1,032,054 168,315 1,200,369 39,439 39,439 59,831 3,060 62,891 $2,175,304 $171,375 $2,346,679 As shown above, the LTF and STA funds will be utilized for transit operations, transit capital projects (transit station improvements, bus stop shelter improvements, transit buses, etc.), pedestrian and bicycle projects (sidewalk repairs), and SJCOG planning and administration. The LTF funds include reclaimed carryover amounts from FY 12/13 in the amount of $430,808 for transit operations. The SJCOG board is scheduled to consider approving the TDA claim on June 26, 2014, following City Council's approval. The City Manager may make minor adjustments when filing the final claim, based upon SJCOG review and comments. The City's transit operations (GrapeLine, Dial -A -Ride, and VineLine) are fully funded with TDA, Federal Transit Administration funds, Measure K renewal program funds, fare revenues and other competitive funding 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 2013/14, which will pay for on-going operations and capital needs. FUNDING AVAILABLE: None required. Gce F.
