CITY OF LODI
COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
AGENDA TITLE: Adoption of Short Range Transit Plan
METING DATE: July 21, 19093
PREPARED BY: Assistant City Manager
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt the Short Range Transit
Plan (SRTP) as presented by the Council of
Governments (COG) and City staff.
BACKGROUND: COG has assisted City staff in preparing a Short
Range Transit Plan (SRTP) to provide supporting
documentation for Federal and other grant applica-
tions. The plan establishes the need for transit
capital and operating grant assistance. The plan also provides input to the
budget planning process. The plan is intended to include a program of capital
projects which are transmitted to COG for inclusion in the Federal
Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). All requests for federal capital
assistance are required to appear in the COG's TIP.
The City of Lodi must make numerous assurances and certifications when Federal
Section 9 Grant applications are submitted to the Federal Transportation
Administration (FTA). One certification is the Section 9 Certification. The
Certification states that the City of Lodi has available the amount of required
local match funds, and that the City will comply with requirements of Sections
8 and 16 of the Federal Transportation Act. Section 8 of the Act is.^ludes the
planning requirements.
Section 8 focL=as on the planning activities of the COS and encompasses local
planning efforts. An excerpt from Section 8 of the Federal Transit Act follows:
"SECTION 8. (a) GENERAL REQUIREMENTS. --It is in the national
interest to encourage and promote the deve?.opment of
transportation systems embracing various modes of transportation
in a manner which will efficiently maximize mobility of people
and goods within and through urbanized areas and minimize
transportation -related fuel consumption and air pollution. To
accomplish this objective, metropolitan planning organizations,
in cooperation with the State, shall develop transportation
plans and programs for urbanized areas of the State. Such plans
and programs shall provide for the development of transportation
facilities (including pedestrian walkways and bicycle
transportation facilities) which will function as an intermodal
transportation system for the State, the metropolitan area, and
the Nation. The process for developing such plans and programs

shall provide for consideration of all modes of
transportation and shall be continuing, cooperative, and
comprehensive to the degree appropriate, based on the
complexity of the transportation problems."
Based on the General Requirements of Section 8, COG justifies the need for SRTP1s in
urbanized areas. The City of Lodi has already submitted the Section 9 grant
application for federal funding of the transit system, however, in the future, it
will be desirable to update the SRTP prior to submitting grants requests. The SRTP
will be an operative document which will be a five year picture of the City's
transportation program.
A copy of the SRTP is on file with the City Clerk's Office. In addition, Council
Members were provided with a copy of the SRTP prior to the July 20, 1993 shirtsleeve
session.
FUNDING: None.

PURPOSE OF PLAN
This document represents the Lodi Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP). It covers the five
year planning period from FY 1993-94 through FY 1997-98. This plan builds upon
findings and recommendations of the Lodi Transit Needs Assessment and System
Development Plan which was completed in August, 1992. This SRTP helps implement
the transit system development recommendations which were reviewed and accepted
by both the Lodi City Council and the San Joaquin County Council of Governments
in the Fall of 1992.
The primary objective of the SRTP is to provide the City of Lodi with a planning
document that fulfills the requirements for maintaining eligibility for federal funds.
Secondly, the plan serves as a management tool to guide the overall development of
the Lodi Public Transit System.
The plan identifies current and future transit system concerns such as: system
operations, capital acquisition, system management and funding considerations. In
addition, performance measures are defined to help measure achievement of system
goals and objectives. The measures provide a means to evaluate current system
performance and system performance trends.
This report includes 6 chapters. Chapter 1 describes the purpose of the plan and its
contents. Chapter 2 describes the Lodi setting, its population, land -use and activity
centers. Chapter 3 includes a description of the current Lodi Public Transit System.
Chapter 4 sets forth the goals, objectives and performance measures for the public
transit system. These goals and objectives are drawn from the Lodi Transit Needs
Assessment and System Development Plan, the performance measures have been
added to help provide some measurable evaluation tools for assess transit system
performance. Chapter 5 outlines a five year service and capital plan for the City of
Lodi and includes a discussion of the transition of the system from strictly a dial -a -ride
service to one that includes a fixed route component. This chapter also identifies the
capital needs associated with the service plan. Chapter 6 concludes with an overall
financial analysis that identifies both revenues and costs associated with this plan.
This Short Range Transit Plan is a living document; it will be updated annually. The
update will include the addition of one planning year as well as an evaluation of
system performance for the year just ending.

CHAPTER 2
DESCRIPTION OF THE LODI SETTING
Lodi Public Transit operates throughout the City of Lodi. In addition, service is
provided to the unincorporated community of Woodbridge and to the Acampo Mobile
Home Park and the Freeway Mobile Home Park. In order to understand the dynamics
of transit demands placed on the Lodi Public Transit service, it is helpful to get a feel
for the setting or environment in which the service operates.
The City of Lodi is a growing urban area located in the northern end of the San
Joaquin Valley. The City is located 90 miles east of San Francisco, 34 miles south of
Sacramento and 15 miles north of Stockton.
Population:
Between 1970 and 1990 the city's population grew nearly 81 percent and is expected
to grow by another 37 percent between 1990 and 2010. Significant increases in
housing and the number of jobs in Lodi are also anticipated during the next 20 years.
Table 2-1 below illustrates actual and projected growth and development between
1970 and 2010 for the city.

characteristics. The 1990 census of population reveals that 16°% of Lodi's population
is 65 years old or older and 25% is under age 18. Countywide only 11 °% of the
population is 65 years old or older and 30°% is under age 18. Lodi's population is
generally older than the county average.
The 1990 census reported median household income in Lodi was $30,739 and median
family income was $35,795. This is very similar to the countywide income data
where the median household and family income figures are $30,635 and $34,701,
respectively.
Census report- also reveal that 6,284 or 12°% of all persons living in Lodi in 1990
were below the poverty level. This is slightly lower than the countywide figure of
15% persons living below the poverty level in 1990.
The 1990 census also reveals that 27,996 (72%) of the residents over 18 years of
age have completed high school (or its equivalent) and 4,840 (12%) have four or more
years of college. The high school completion rate countywide for residents over 18
years of age is 68% and 12%.have four years or more of college.
Approximately 17% of the population are persons of hispanic origin. The census also
asked questions about the language spoken at home. About 12°% of the population
speak Spanish at home and 30% of those persons speak English "not at all". The
census reveals that about 4°% of the overall population speak English "not at all", this
includes homes where Spanish or other non-English language is spoken.
This demographic information should be considered when designing marketing material
for the Lodi Public Transit Service.
Industry
Lodi is surrounded by a highly productive agricultural area which plays an important
role in the City's economy. The approximately 300,000 acres of rich agricultural lands
in the Lodi district produce farm products ready for harvest and shipping almost every
month of the year. But Lodi is more than an agricultural center. Clean air industries
such as health care and education contribute to the City's economic base. Principal
industries in the Lodi area include agriculture, food processing, health services, and
retail. Major employers include General Mills (900 employees); Lodi Unified School
District (2,250); Pacific Coast Producers (300 full-time and 1,500 seasonal); and Lodi
Memorial Hospital (650).

Land -Use -
Lodi has developed over the years in a grid pattern. The City encompasses an area
that includes approximately 12 square miles. The downtown area is dominated by
public and commercial uses but residential development is well integrated with the
downtown services. Industry is primarily located in the eastern portion of town, along
the Southern Pacific rail -road tracks and east of State Highway 99. It is also found
in the northwest part of town where General Mills is located.
Air Quality
Another important aspect of the Lodi Public Transit setting is air. quality. Currently the
entire San Joaquin Valley is a "non -attainment" area under the federal and state air
quality acts. "Improved public transit" is a state and federally approved transportation
control measure (TCM). Under the Valleywide TCM Program now being developed,
Lodi and all similar areas will be required to improve transit services. Steps need to
be taken in all areas of the Valley to mitigate the air quality problems. Improvements
in Lodi's public transit system will reduce emissions and contribute positively to
regional clean air quality goals to the extent that the improvements attract riders away
from the use of their private automobile. This is not to say that transit is the answer
to air quality problems, but certainly t -nsit has a role to play in the attainment of
clean air.
Funding to support transit improvements in non -attainment areas is available under the
Federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program (CMAQ). Limited
funds are also available from the San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control
District.
Congestion Management
In November 1991, the San Joaquin County Council of Governments adopted a
Congestion Management Program (CMP) for San Joaquin County. This program grew
out of requirements of Proposition 111. "The Traffic Congestion Relief and Spending
Limitation Act of 1990". The CMP is designed to reduce automobile congestion by
(a) coordinating land use, air quality, and transportation planning within the county,
and (b) integrating local, regional, and state planning policies. As a result, the CMP
describes specific transit standards and sets minimum performance requirements that
are to be implemented by transit operators in the county. This CMP standards are
incorporated into the performance measures of this Short Range Transit Plan.
Improvements to Lodi's public transit system are intended to help reduce traffic
congestion and achieve the transit standards outlined in the Congestion Management
Plan.

CHAPTER 3
DESCRIPTION OF LODI PUBLIC TRANSIT SYSTEM
This section describes public transit service provided in the City of Lodi. Specific
issues discussed include the operation of Lodi Public Transit, its major transit
destinations and ridership, fare structure, and system maintenance requirements.
Service Description and Hours
The Lodi Public Transit service is a general public demand -response type service
referred to as Dial -A -Ride. Service is available Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to
7 p.m., Saturdays between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. and on Sundays between 12 noon and
5 p.m. The Sunday service began as a trial service on February 7, 1993. After a 2 %:
month trial, the City Council agreed to continue the Sunday transit service hours
indefinitely. The service is available on call, but subscription service (i.e., pickup at
a prearranged future date and time) is not available.
Service Area
The Lodi Public Transit service area consists of the City of Lodi, plus the
unincorporated areas of Woodbridge, the Arbor Mobile Home Park in Acampo, and the
Freeway Mobile Home Park located south of the Lodi City limits. Service to this
unincorporated area is provided under a contractual arrangement between Lodi and
San Joaquin County. Added together, the service area is approximately 13 square
miles in size.
As shown in Figure 3-1, the city is served by a grid pattern street system. Major
north -south roadways include Lower Sacramento Road, Ham Lane, Hutchins Street,
Stockton Street, Cherokee Lane/Business-99, and State Route 99. Major east -west
facilities include Turner Road, Lockeford Street, Pine Street, Lodi Avenue, Kettleman
Lane (State Route 12), and Harney Lane. Kettleman Lane provides regional access to
and from the west.

Major Transit Destinations
Based on discussions with City staff and a review of ridership logs, indications are
that major travel destinations in Lodi include Hutchins Street Square, downtown Lodi,
Lodi Memorial Hospital and the other medical facilities along South Fairmont Avenue,
several area grocery stores (Raleys, Frys, Safeway and SMART FOODS), the Vineyard
shopping center on Kettleman Lane, Mervyn's Department Store, the Walmart
Shopping Center, K -Mart Shopping Center, and the Loel Center.
Organizational Structure
Lodi Public Transit i-, operated by the City of Lc di. Overall management of the system
is the responsibility of the Assistant City Manager while day-to-day operation of the
transit service is provided by an Administrative Assistant to the City Manager.
Maintenance of the public transit fleet is done in-house by the City's Public Works
Department. Drivers and dispatchers are contract -employees of the City of Lodi.
Thee are 13 drivers, including 3 part-time drivers, and 3 dispatchers, including 1 part-
time dispatcher.
System Ridership, Service Hours and Service Miles
Lodi City took over direct operation of the transit system in September, 1992. Figures
3-2 and 3-3 reflect service operations. Information from the last three months of the
fiscal year indicate that about 87% of the passengers qualify for discount fares
because of their age or a disability, the remaining 13% of the passengers pay the full
fare for a trip. Figure 3-2 shows the break down between city and county transit
riders. Approximately 95% of the people who ride Lodi Public Transit are people
travelling to and from destinations within the city limits as illustrated in Figure 3-2.
Transit system ridership has increased from 56,389 to 89,436 during the ten year
period between Fiscal Years (FY) 82-83 and FY 91-92, a 58 percent increase.
Average weekday ridership is 330 passengers, average ridership on Saturday is 119.
Sunday ridership averages 49 passengers per day but ridership has been growing since
the Sunday service was initiated. Ridership counts for FY 1992-93 total 88,622 trips.
This represents a 1 percent ridership decrease over the prior fiscal year. The decline
can be attributed to several factors. including the weak economy and problems
encountered early in the fiscal year with the contract operator and the resulting switch

of system management.
Vehicle service hours, the number of hours a system operates over a 12 -month per;od,
has increased 75 percent, from 9,448 to 16,576 over the same ten-year period.
There was also growth in the total number of revenue service miles, or the total
number of miles traveled by a vehicle used for public transportation for which a fare
is collected. Between FY 82-83 and FY 91-92, revenue service miles increased from
97,529 to 184,673 per year, an 89 percent increase over the ten year period. Figure
3-3 shows the changes in these three transit system parameters.
Fare Structure
Current fares for Lodi Public Transit are $.50 for senior citizens or disabled individuals
and $1.00 for the general public. County service costs an additional $.50. The
service operates on a scrip basis, with the city telling tickets to users.
At the end of each day, drivers reconcile their trip log with the scrip collected.
Up to three persons may ride for the price of one, if travelling from the same origin
point to the same destination point. In addition, transit users must be willing to share
the vehicle with others.
Lodi Public Transit tickets can be purchased at the following locations: Loel Center,
Hutchins Street Square, Lodi Memorial Hospital, Farmers & Merchants Bank, and City
Hall.
Fleet Maintenance Requirements
Lodi Public Transit currently owns and operates ten transit vehicles. The fleet consists
of five 7 -passenger Chevrolet Caprice Station Wagons (one is a 1988 model, two are
1989 models, two are 1992 models), three 4 -passenger Dodge Diplomat Sedans
(model year 1989), and two 5 -passenger wheelchair accessible Dodge Caravans (one
is a 1989 model, the other is a 1991 model).
The two wheelchair accessible vans feature manually operated ramps. The vans are
not lift -equipped, but passengers using wheelchairs can be accommodated if the chair
fits on the ramp and the driver is able to maneuver the chair up the ramp.

Maintenance of the public transit vehicles is done by the City's Public Works
Department. Over the past several years the City's fleet size has grown from 7
vehicles to 10 vehicles. The carrying capacity of the current fleet is 57 passengers,
including two passengers in wheelchairs (drivers are excluded from the calculated
carrying capacity).

Dial -A -Ride vehicles receive routine maintenance work every 45 days. This 45 -day. -
service check includes oil and filter changes and complete vehicle inspection (fluid
levels, brakes, signals, tires, hoses, etc.) If transmissions or radiators need repair, the
work is sent to an outside contractor. Radiators needing replacement are taken care
of in-house.
Vehicle service work is prioritized among all city vehicles; the Dial -A -Ride fleet has
second priority, following City Police vehicles.

FY 1992-93 THROUGH FY 1997-98
CHAPTER 4
SERVICE GOALS, OBJECTIVES & PERFORMANCE MEASURES
This section of the plan describes the goals and objectives of the Lodi Public Transit
system. These are taken from the Lodi Transit Needs Assessment and System Plan
(August, 1992).
These goals strive to represent the values, concerns and desires of the Lodi
community for public transit services. The goals are not static, rather they should be
reviewed and updated annually to ensure that they accurately reflect the community
needs and values in terms of providing public transit services.
This Short Range Transit Plan identifies performance standards for each of the
previously identified system goals and objectives. These performance standards will
be used to evaluate system performance.
The progressive development of defining goals, objectives and performance standards
provides an organized method of defining the purpose and direction of the Lodi Public
Transit System. Efforts have been made to avoid setting conflicting and/or unrealistic
system goals. Efforts have also been made to identify meaningful and measurable
performance standards for each of the transit system objectives.
Goal 1
Meet the transit needs of all city residents
Goal 1 - Objective 1
Monitor and improve service as needed
Performance Standard - Hold at least one public hearing to solicit comments
and suggestions about area transit needs. Solicit public input on proposed
service changes. Monitor and follow up on all service comments and
suggestions, including those found in COG's annual assessment of Unmet
Transit Needs. Prepare monthly financial and operating reports and use these
reports as management tools.
4-1 JULY 9, 1993
LODI PUBLIC TRANSIT (DRAFT) SHORT RANGE TRANSIT PLAN
FY 1992-93 THROUGH FY 1997-98
FY 92-93 Status - The City of Lodi held two public hearings to receive public
input on transit needs in FY 1992-93. Testimony was received and recorded.
The City implemented Sunday Dial -A -Ride service in response to public
testimony suggesting such service.
The annual assessment of unmet transit needs (approved April, 1993) includes
a discussion of Lodi's continuing efforts to implement the service development
plan outlined in the Lodi Transit Needs Assessment and System Plan. Efforts
are underway to transition the Lodi Public Transit System from a strictly
demand response service to one that includes a fixed route component. This
transition is indicative of Lodi's receptiveness to not only public comment but
also the annual assessment of unn ct t. ansit needs.
Daily passenger logs are used to compile monthly ridership reports. These
reports are used to identify the County's share of the passenger load for billing
purposes. The monthly ridership reports also identify the number of senior
and disabled riders and the number of general public riders.
The passenger logs are maintained by the Dial -A -Ride dispatchers and include
information concerning the time a trip request is made, the time a driver is
dispatched to make the trip, and the time the passenger is delivered to his or
her trip destination. The City of Lodi usually performs an annual evaluation of
its response time by taking a random sample of passenger trips in a month and
computing wait time.
Goal 1 - Objective 2
Ensure equipment is compatible with requirements under the Americans With
Disabilities Act (ADA)
Performance Standard - 100% of all new vehicles meet ADA accessibility
requirements.
FY 92-93 Status - One new station wagon was purchased in FY 92-93. It
does not meet ADA accessibility requirements. Two of the ten current Dial -A -
Ride vehicles have vehicle ramps and securement devises which accommodate
common wheelchairs.
Two new mini -buses with a 12 -passenger capacity are on order; delivery is

anticipated in early FY 1993-94. Both vehicles will be lift equipped and in
compliance with ADA accessibility requirements.
Goal 1 - Objective 3
Develop cooperative agreements with other area transit providers
Performance Standard - Cooperative service agreements are in effect.
(note: this objective and performance standard should be modified in future years
when regional_ transit service is implemented; Service connections and transfers
between Lodi Public Transit and the pending inter -city service should be
coordinated in such a manner that the overall system is easy to use (convenient,
no confusion) for the customer.)
FY 92-93 Status - The City of Lodi and the County of San Joaquin have a
service agreement dated June 2, 1993, stipulating that Lodi City will operate
a Dial -A -Ride transit system in the unincorporated areas of Woodbridge, the
Arbor Mobile Home Park and the Freeway Mobile Home Park. This agreement
covers the period of July 1, 1993 through June 30, 1996 and is subject to
annual review.
Goal 1 - Objective 4
Coordinate transit services with congestion management plans, ordinances and the
regional transportation plan.
Performance Standard - Transit services meet the CMP transit routing,
frequency and coordination standards, and are complementary to local and
regional trip reduction measures and ordinance requirements. More
specifically, general public demand response service is available throughout
Lodi City
(note: this performance standard will change as the City transitions its
transportation service to include general public fixed route service. This is
because there are additional CMP standards applicable to general public fixed
route transit operations).
4-3 JULY 9, 1993
LODI PUBLIC TRANSIT (DRAFT] SHORT RANGE TRANSIT PLAN
FY 1992-93 THROUGH FY 1997-98
FY 92-93 Status - The Lodi general public dial -a -ride service is available
throughout the City of Lodi as well as in the unincorporated areas of
Woodbridge, the Arbor Mobile Home Park and the Freeway Mobile Home Park.
The City of Lodi provided COG with the necessary CMP self -certification
materials and the COG made a formal finding that the City was in compliance
with the CMP standards and requirements for FY 1991-92. The self -
certification report noted that some efforts concerning transit planning were
incomplete but that the City intended to complete these efforts as the transit
system developed.
The CMP requires that jurisdictions adopt policies or review procedures for
determining long range transit needs of new developments, making new
developments transit friendly, and making new or reconstructed streets transit
friendly. According to Lodi City staff, the current review process for new
development proposals does not address local transit needs because the City
only has the Dial -A -Ride demand -response service. As the planning process
begins for the fixed -route bus system, the City will include a review process
for confirming that new development proposals have given due consideration
to the needs of the local transit system.
Goal 2
Provide for efficient and cost-effective transit service
Goal 2 - Objective 1
Maintain a!I vehicles in good working order.
Performance Standard -Conduct routine preventative maintenance inspections
of all vehicles. Perform service checks on all vehicles every 45 r. -.ys.
FY 92-93 Status - Dial -A -Ride operators conduct a routine vehicle inspection
each day before their assigned vehicle is placed into service. The pre-
operation inspection covers the following vehicle checks: Lights (head, turn
signals, stop, tail, flashers), Leaks (fuel, coolant, oil, air), Backup Alarm and
Horn, Tires, Windshield Wipers and Washers, Windshield and Mirrors (clean
and adjusted), Gauges, Fluids (fuel, oil, water), Steering (pulls, loose), Brakes
(including hand brake), First Aid Kit, Seat Belt, Fire Extinguisher, Cab (clean

In addition, all vehicles are routinely serviced by the City's Public Works
Department every 45 days. The routine service includes oil and filter change
as well as an overall inspection of the vehicle's operating system. The chart

and include topics on Driver Safety, Customer Relations, the Americans with
Disabilities Act, Emergency First Aid (CPR). All employees who enter training
program, complete the program in a satisfactory manner.
FY 92-93 Status - All Drivers have certificates which provide them with the
authorization to operate a General Public Paratransit Vehicle. Five of the
drivers have a Class B license with a passenger endorsement license. In
addition, all of the drivers have their CPR certificates.
Regular staff meetings are held and cover a variety of topics including Safety
Issues. In addition, local care providers are invited to staff meetings to give
workshops concerning special needs of non-ambulatory or frail and senior citizen
transit patrons. Additional focussed training sessions on the Americans with
Disabilities Act and driver safety issues are scheduled for future staff meetings.
Goal 2 - Objective 3
Achieve adequate staffing and equipment levels
Performance Standard - Monitor the vehicle service hours per employee (using
full-time equivalent employees calculation) and compare to the national
average. Maintain a spare ratio of between 15-20 percent of fleet. Follow a
vehicle replacement schedule, based on records of vehicle age, mileage, and
service history. All vehicles should be equipped with communications
equipment.
FY 92-93 Status - The estimated vehicle service hours per full-time equivalent
employee for FY 1992-93 is 829. This estimate is based on City payroll
records from the time Lodi began direct operation of the Lodi Transit System
as well as vehicle maintenance logs which note labor time. The City will be
tracking Dial -A -Ride employee hours and vehicle service hours more carefully
in the coming fiscal year.
Lodi DAR spare vehicle ratio is currently 10%, one of the ten DAR vehicles is
a spare.
The two mini -buses currently on order include one fleet expansion vehicle and
one fleet replacement vehicle. One of the mini -buses will replace the oldest
DAR station wagon.

Goal 4
Secure stable sources of funding
Goal 4 - Objective 1
Obtain federal and other types of funding
Performance Measure - Annually secure Lodi's formula share of the FTA
Section 9 transit operating and capital funds. When possible pursue
discretionary transit system support when notices of the availability of such
funds are received.
FY 92-93 Status - The City of Lodi filed its first FTA Section 9 grant
application in June, 1993. The application actually covers two fiscal years:
1992-93 and 1993-94. Funds requested for FY 1992-93 total $235,840
($158,000 for transit operating assistance and $77,840 for capital equipment
purchases). The FY 1993-94 request totals $713,180 ($237,500 for transit
operation assistance, $447,680 for capital equipment purchases and $28,000
for transit planning work).
Goal 4 - Objective 2
Use TDA revenues to meet the required match for Federal transit support.
Performance Standard - Maintain eligibility for TDA funds by achieving the
required fare recovery ratio. Maintain eligibility for State Transit Assistance
funds by achieving the TDA required efficiency standards. Use TDA funds to
match the FTA Section 9 Operating Assistance (50% match required) and
Capita! Assistance (20% match required).
FY 92-93 Status - The most recent TDA audit documents Lodi's
achievement of the required 10% fare recovery ratio and compliance with the
STA operating cost per revenue vehicle hour efficiency standard. An FTA
Section 9 grant request for FY 1992-93 uses TDA as a full match for the
federal assistance.

Performance Standard - Dispatch vehicles in a manner that minimizes
passenger ride time but maximizes the number of total passenger trips.
FY 92-93 Status - Information on passenger ride time is not routinely
compiled. City staff will develop a process to monitor this type of system
performance information, at least on a sample basis, during FY 1993-94.
The total number of passenger trips continues to increase from one year to the
next. The chart below illustrates this phenomenon:

advertisements of the special New Years Eve DAR service. DAR Sunday
service began in late January, 1993. The arrival of Sunday service was
advertized via the local cable TV network, local newspaper stories and limited
paid advertisements.
Lodi's FTA Section 9 Transportation Improvement Program identifies the use
of $35,000 in FY 1993-94 'or a marketing study.
Goal 5 - Objective 3
Encourage transit system/community interaction
Performance Standard - Policies and procedures exist to respond to rider and
non -rider comments, suggestions and complaints about transit system. Public
information about the transit service is routine and regular. Public meetings
and hearings are held to not only inform but to solicit public comments and
views on the transit service. The Lodi Ad Hoc Citizens Transportation
Advisory Committee is re -convened when significant service changes are
anticipated.
FY 92-93 Status - All comments, suggestions and complaints concerning
Lodi DAR service operations are directed to t` `dministrative Assistant to the
City Manager in charge of DAR services. All complaints are dealt with directly
and immediately. Staff is developing a process to categorize and log
comments, suggestions and complaints about the DAR system. This process
will provide staff with the means to identify trends or growing problem areas
as well as a means to monitor community satisfaction with the public transit
service.
Public information about Lodi's transit services includes occasional fliers
posted at DAR ticket outlets and distributed to transit patrons as well as
unsolicited news stories in the local newspaper. These news stories typically
follow or proceed City Council action concerning the DAR service.
Occasionally Public Service Announcements are issued regarding the DAR
service.
Both the Lodi Ad Hoc Citizens Transportation Advisory Committee and the
Chamber of Commerce's Government and Transportation Review Committee
will be involved in the development of the Fixed -Route operations plan. This

plan will be developed in the coming fiscal year.
The City of Lodi held a number of public meetings and hearings on transit this
past Fiscal Year. These meetings are summarized in the chart on the next
page.
Goal 6
Ensure that the transit service operates as scheduled, and that all transit equipment
has the highest level of reliability and customer appeal.
Goal 6 - Objective .1
Continue to take steps to minimize wait times.
Performance Standard - Pick up and deliver 90% of all passengers within
forty-five minutes. Reduce Dial -A -Aide wait time to no more than 30 minutes.
FY 92-93 Status - The daily passenger log sheet:: completed by DAR
dispatchers note the time a trip request is received, the time it is dispatched
and the time the passenger is delivered to his or her destination. While this
information is routinely collected, it is not routinely compiled or used as a
monitoring tool. Data on "ride -time", the time in which a passenger rides in
the DAR vehicle between his or her origin and destination, is not regularly
collected. Lodi has a "response -window" objective of 30 minutes which
states that 90% of the passengers will be picked up and delivered to their
destination within 45 minutes of the requested pick-up time.
A random sample of passenger log sheets was recently conducted (one
random day each month), and revealed that 100% of the trips are within the
45 minute response window and 97% are within a 30 minute response
window.
Goal 6 - Objective 2
Provide weekend transit service if cost-effective and ridership exists.

vehicle service hours, if warranted by ridership demand. Monitor the number
of passengers per weekend vehicle service hour and make adjustments as
necessary to ensure productive and cost effective service.
FY 92-93 Status - Limited Sunday Dial -A -Ride service was initiated, on a trial
basis, in February, 1993. In April, 1993, the City Council decided to continue
the service beyond its three-month trial period. The service is now available
on Sundays from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Weekend ridership statistics are
shown below:

Use COG as a resource in identifying new or discretionary transit revenue
sources, and when filing transit grant applications.
FY 92-93 Status - Working with Lodi City staff, COG transformed the Lodi
Transit Needs Assessment and &2tem Plan into a Short Range Transit Plan
spanning the years FY 1993-94 through FY 1997-98. Lodi City staff provided
needed information on system operations and finances.
The City also provided the COG with a three-year Transportation Improvement
Program identifying the use of Federal Section 9 funds for Fiscal Year 1992-93
through 1994-95. The COG has incorporated this information into the
prospective Federal Transportation Improvement Program.
The City of Lodi filed its FY 199? -93 TDA claim with the COG in January, 1993.
COG approved the claim in March, 1993.

CHAPTER 5
FIVE YEAR SERVICE AND CAPITAL PLAN: FY 1993-94 THROUGH FY 1997-98
As Lodi's population grows, ridership on the Lodi Public Transit System is also likely
to increase. However, without major changes, the existing transit system will find it
increasingly difficult to meet public transit needs. The City of Lodi Transit Needs
Ass,. sment and System Plan completed in August, 1992, recommended that Lodi
begin planning for the expansion of its existing transit service to include both demand -
response and fixed route bus service.
This five year plan moves forward with the recommendations from the August, 1992
report. A two-tier level of transit service is described below. The two-tier system will
become operational in July, 1994. The demand response service will enable Lodi
Public Transit to continue to meet the needs of the senior and disabled residents. The
fixed route service will provide reliable and convenient transit service for those whose
mobility needs require more frequent and routine transit service than that provided
under the current demand response system.
This Short Range Transit Plan follows the earlier study's recommendation and calls for
the development of a two-tiered transit service for the City of Lodi. The demand -
response service will continue throughout the life of this plan and beginning in FY
1994-95, it will be complemented with a general public fixed route service.
The details of the fixed route service will be worked out during FY 1993-94. These
details include the operating schedule, routing and frequencies, farebox structure, and
institutional arrangements.
This plan also calls for the development and implementation of a marketing strategy
with a two -fold goal of promoting fixed -route ridership as well as shifting able-bodied
transit patrons from the demand -response system to the fixed route system.
Another important component of this Short Range Transit Plan is the acquisition of
both replacement vehicles for the demand response service and expansion vehicles for
the new fixed route service.
The current dial -a -ride fleet consists of ten vehicles, of which two meet the
accessibility requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act. One of the ten Bial-
a -ride vehicles is considered a spare vehicle. Over the life of this five-year plan, five
5-1 JULY 12, 1993
LODI PUBLic TRANSIT [DRAFT] SHORT RANGE TRANSIT PLAN
FY 1992-93 THROUGH F`V 1997-98
of the current dial -a -ride vehicles will be replaced with larger capacity, lift -equipped
vehicles. The total number of vehicles needed for Dial -A -Ride services will be likely
to decline as able-bodied passengers shift over to the more frequent and schedule -
based fixed route service. At the end of the five-year pian period, the Dial -A -Ride fleet
will include eight lift -equipped vans and two station wagons. One of the vans and,
at least one of the wagons, will be used as spare vehicles.
The current plans for the fixed route service include the acquisition of five mini -buses
in FY 1993-94. A is anticipated that these buses will become available towards the
end of the fiscal year in time for the initiation of fixed route service in early FY 1994-
95. One of the fixed -route mini -buses is considered a spare vehicle. While the fixed
route operating plan will provide details on future fixed route vehicle needs, the
assumption at this point in time is that the five vehicles will adequately meet ridership
demands through the life of this five-year plan.
One other important component of the plan includes the acquisition of computer
hardware and software for use in transit system performance monitoring. FY 1993-94
is the target year for acquiring this equipment. Once the equipment is in place staff
will be able to produce routine management reports to help evaluate system
performance and identify action necessary to maintain productivity and system
effectiveness.
Five Year Operating Plan
Following is a summary list, by fiscal year, of system operational and administrative
tasks that will be undertaken. Projections of system F-irformance, in terms of
ridership and service hours, are found at the conclusion of this section.

Five Year Capital Plan -
The five year capital program for the Lodi Public Transit System includes a vehicle
replacement program as well as a vehicle expansion program. The program also
includes support equipment needed to ensure passenger comfort and administrative
oversight. Capital needs for the next five years are described below.
Project: Replacement and Expansion Vehicles
Dial -A -Ride Replacement Vehicles (5)

$ 54,100 TDA
$270,500
$300,000 Section 9
$ 75.000 TDA
$375,000
Justification:
Five Dia! -A -Ride replacement vehicles are needed to upgrade the dial -a -ride fleet
so that the service is more accessible and able to meet the requirements laid out
in the Americans with Disabilities Act. These vehicles will replace Dial -A -Ride fleet
vehicles that are not accessible to the handicapped. They will also be larger
capacity vehicles, and will be able to accommodate group trips better than the
current Dial -A -Ride fleet.
Five Fixed - Route expansion vehicles are needed to initiate fixed route service.
The five vehicles include one spare vehicle. Current system plans suggest the use
of four fixed -route mini -buses operating 12 hours each weekday beginning in July,
1994. Additional hours may be provided if deerned feasible and advisable by the

Justification:
This category includes the purchase of new and replacement computers, computer
software, and miscellaneous office equipment as needed. Two new computers are
needed for use in monitoring and assessing system performance. Due to rapidly
changing technology it is anticipated that software and hardware upgrades will be
needed during the course of this five year service plan. It is also anticipated that
the Lodi Public Transit operation will move to the new Lodi Multi -modal station.
While costs associated with setting up headquarters at the multimodal station are
unknown at this time, it is anticipated that some new office furnishings will be
needed.

CHAPTER 6
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The five year operating budget projections and capital requirements for the Lodi Public
Transit system are presented in this chapter. The financial plan consists of operating
and capital cost estimated by year and designates potential federal, state and local
funding sources to finance the system over the next five fiscal years.
Projected Operating Costs
Operating costs depend on the unit cost for service, and the number of units provided.
In estimating the future operating costs of the Lodi Public Transit System,
consideration has been given to both the cost of the demand response system and the
new fixed route system.
The number of units in this estimate refers to the number of service hours. Lodi's
Dial -A -Ride service currently costs approximately $20 per service hour. The average
cost per service hour for the past five years is $20.75. Projections of future costs for
the Lodi Dial -A -Ride service are based upon a unit cost of $21 per service hour
beginning in FY 1993-94. This plan uses $30.00 per hour of service as a cost
estimate for the new fixed route service. This is low compared to the per hour cost
of fixed route service in a large urban area, such as Stockton, but comparable to the
per unit cost of the County's fixed route service that travels between Lathrop and
Manteca. The costs are inflated 5% per year in the financial table.
The number of service units is based upon the projected number of vehicle service
hours, by type of service. For purposes of this analysis the fixed route service is
assumed to begin in July, 1994, with 4 mini -buses providing service 12 hours each
weekday. Projected operating costs will be higher if the fixed -route service includes
weekend hours. Estimating the of sery;ce hours for the demand response Dial -A -Ride
service is more complicated since the introduction of the fixed route service will likely
reduce the demand for the Dial -A -Ride service. This of course is at least partially
predicated upon a concerted marketing and promotion effort to shift able-bodied Dial -
A -Ride passengers to the fixed route service. The number of service hours for the
demand response system are projected to decline 10% each year, beginning in FY
1994-95 when the fixed route service is introduced.

FY 1992-93 THROUGH FY 1997-98
Marketing is also an important component of the Lodi Public Transit System operating
budget. Marketing includes those efforts undertaken to design a system that is
responsive to the community desires for transit services. It also includes public
information efforts aimed at increasing public awareness of the system and how to
use it. A dedicated marketing budget of 2% of the annual operating costs is proposed
in this five year financial plan for the Lodi Public Transit System.
Capital Costs
Capital costs in this financial plan are taken directly from Figure 5-2, which
summarized the capital program for transit service in Lodi. The cost figures reflect an
assumed flat rate of 5% per year for inflation.
Funding Sources
Revenues are derived from various federal and state programs and passenger fares.
Some funding sources must be used for capital expenses only, others can be used for
either capital or operating expenses. Various transit funding programs and their
applicability to the Lodi situation are reviewed as follows:
Federal Transit Administration IFTAI Section 9
Section 9 is a federal formula grant program. A portion of the formula grant fund can
be used for operating purposes and another portion must be used for capital programs.
Either portion may be used to support technical study programs. The City of Lodi
became eligible for these funds in FY 1991-92. This eligibility is based on Lodi's
population exceeding 50,000 persons.
This Section 9 program is a primary source of federal funds for transit systems
throughout the country. Lodi's annual apportionment for FY 1991-92 was $490,772.
$263,561 of this may be used for operating purposes. In FY 1992-93 Lodi's Section
9 apportionment was $420,031, with an operating assistance limit of $263,135. The
FY 1993-94 apportionment will not be known until October, 1993 or so. For purposes
of this plan, Section 9 funds are assumed to be flat. This is consistent with the
revenue projections in the COG's Regional Transit Systems Plan.
TDA Local Transportation Funds (LTF)
The Transportation Development Act creates, in each county, a Local Transportation
fund for specific transportation purposes specified in the Act. The LTF funds are
derived from 1/4 cent of the state sales tax and allocated to the San Joaquin Council
6-2 JULY 12, 1993
Low PUBLIc TRANSIT [DRAFT] SHORT RANGE TRANSIT PLAN
FY 1992-93 THROUGH FY 1997-98
of Governments. These funds are then distributed to the County and the incorporated
cities within the County based on population.
In 1993/94, Lodi will receive an estimated $988,290 in LTF that can be used for
transit or other transportation purposes (capital or operating). The LTF is projected to
increase or decrease in relation to the sales tax collected in San Joaauin County. In
past two years, TDA funds have been depressed, due at least in part to the overall
statewide recession. Growth in TDA funds is expected to resume in future years. The
amount of LTF used to support the Lodi Public Transit System in FY 1992-93 was
$321,657. This included $268,105 in operating assistance and $55,552 in capital
assistance. The financial plan presented in Figure 6-1 shows that the most LTF
needed to support the local transit system in any given year of this five year plan,
does not exceed $420,000. This amount represents less than 50°x6 of Lodi's
estimated LTF apportionment for the coming fiscal year.
Currently Lodi uses some of its LTF for a variety of non -transit purposes including
sidewalk replacements, handicap retrofit projects, curb and gutter replacements, and
street maintenance projects. The financial plan for the development of the Lodi Public
Transit System would likely have an impact on the availability of LTF funds for non -
transit purposes. This impact, however, is offset somewhat by Lodi's new ability to
access and use FTA Section 9 funds. It is also worth noting that without the
introduction of fixed -route service, the costs associated wish maintaining the demand
response system will continue to escalate as demand grov.,!;. The fixed route system
is a method of meeting growing demand. Using the larger capacity vehicles and a
fixed -route system to link major trip origin/destination spots, the system can prove
cost-effective.
It should also be noted that TDA funds may be transitioned from these non -transit
purposes over time whether or not Lodi moves forward in this local transit system
development plan. The Council of Governments has adopted a policy that will
transition LTF funds from non -transit purposes to either local or regional transit service
over the next 10 years. The COG policy envisions granting local transit needs first
priority but also would guarantee a minimum set-aside for regional transit services.
Implementation details for this policy are still being worked out.
State Transit Assistance (STA) Funds
STA funds are derived from the statewide sales tax on motor vehicle fuel (gasoline)
and use fuel (diesel). The money is allocated, by formula to the San Joaquin Council
of Governments. STA funds are included as part of the State's Transportation Planning
6-3 JULY 12, 1993

and Development Account. This account has recently been hit by the State legislature
in efforts to develop a State budget. More specifically, one of the budget trailer bills
takes $58 million from STA leaving $54.3 million. There are many unresolved issues
related to this "raid" on the STA fund, including the possibility of restoring some of
the cut funds and/or providing local flexibility in converting Transit Capital
Improvement (TCI) funds into STA support. As a conservative measure, STA funds
for the FY 93-94 years have been projected, for purposes of this plan, to be reduced
50°x6 of the FY 92-93 level. Projections for STA beyond FY 93-94 reflect a modest
2% growth in the STA fund.
Farebox Revenues
Farebox revenues are estimated for both the demand response service and the fixed
route service. The actual amount of the Farebox revenue depends on not only
passenger volumes but also the fare structure. This financial plan assumes that the
average passenger fare for the demand response system is 70 cents while the average
passenger fare for the fixed route system is 85 cents. This differential assumes that
the fixed route system will carry a majority of general public riders who receive only
a limited subsidy for their trip. The demand response system will cater to the disabled
rider. A fare differential for elderly passengers between the demand response service
and the fixed route service would help shift able bodied passengers to the fixed route
system.
her Federal Fund
The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA), passed by the United
States Congress in 1991 offers flexible funding for both highway and transit
programs. Transit capital projects may compete with roadway and other
transportation needs in two area: the Surface Transportation Programs (STP) and
Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Program (CMAQ). CMAQ funds are apportioned
to non -attainment areas as defined in the federal Clean Air Act. In San Joaquin
County, all CMAQ and STP funds have been allocated for the next three years.
Transit projects received 32% of available CMAQ and STP funds in the most recent
programming action. Over time it is increasingly likely that transit projects will receive
increased funding under these programs, as air quality and congestion management
become more critical. As with other federal funds, these funds can generally be used
for capital projects only and require a local match.

Lodi Public Transit currently derives some operating revenue from San Joaquin County
for the services provided to residents of some of the neighboring unincorporated
developments. In particular, Lodi provides service to residents in the Woodbridge
community, the Acampo Mobile Home Park and the Freeway Mobile Home Park. The
City of Lodi and the County of San Joaquin have a contract agreement whereby the
County purchases service from the City of Lodi. In FY 1991-92 the County of San
Joaquin purchase $15,895 worth of transit services from the City of Lodi. This figure
increased to approximately $20,800 in FY 1992-93. This revenue source is expected
to grow at the rate of 5% per year. The 5% growth reflects both population growth
and growth in the propensity to use transit. Transit usage is expected to grow as
convenience and accessibility to the Lodi Public Transit system improves.
Other
Other potential sources of transit funds include the San Joaquin Valley Unified Air
Pollution Control District, Private Funding, Developer Fees, Measure K and the General
Fund.
The San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District collects a small premium
on auto registrations and uses the revenue to fund air quality enhancing projects. This
is a fairly new program and only two application and grant award cycles have passed.
The revenue comes from an assessment of $2.00 per vehicle, this assessment may
increase to $4.00 per vehicle within the next two years. These funds are distributed
on a competitive basis. Funds have been awarded for various transit related projects
including alternative fuel transit vehicles, marketing programs to promote transit
ridership, and employer transit bus pass programs. This fund source places an
emphasis on modest cost programs with immediate air quality impacts. Projects to
over ongoing operating costs are not encouraged.
Private funds can be tapped for such projects as passenger shelters and benches,
especially if advertising space were available. An "adopt -a -stop" program, similar to
"adopt -a -highway", is a good source of funds or in-kind services from service
organizations and possibly retail businesses.
Transit developer fees have been imposed in a number or more urban counties, along
with traffic impact fees as a means of financing the incremental cost of development.
Lodi does not have such fees in place at this time, but it is a potential source of transit
funds for consideration in the future.
Measure K is the local San Joaquin County 1/2 cent sales tax program approved by
6-5 JULY 12, 1993
LODI PUBLIC TRANSIT [DRAFT] SHORT RANGE TRANSIT PLAN
FY 1992-93 THROUGH FY 1997-98
San Joaquin..County voters in November, 1990. It provides funding for a variety of
transportation projects, including transit. All of the available Measure K funds are
programmed in the COG's Strategic Plan. There is limited ability to amend the project
list funded by the tax. This funding source should not be counted on as a source of
local city transit funds, unless the City is prepared to request a formal amendment to
the Measure K Strategic Plan.
City general fund money has been allocated. in other jurisdictions as a means of
providing more transit service than would otherwise be funded. Given the current
fiscal conditions, this is an unlikely source, and no general fund revenues are included
in this financial plan for Lodi Pub!ic Transit System. In no case would general fund
money be allocated to transit as long as FTA Section 9, TDA or other transit
assistance funds .remain unspent.
Figure 6-1 summarizes the five-year financial operating and capital plan for the Lodi
Public Transit System. The plan shows that the primary sources of funds for the Lodi
Public Transit System are LTF, FTA Section 9, fares and STA.
The pie charts on the next page reflect the five year summary of operating revenues
and the five year summary of expenditures.
