Agenda Item 5 Board Member Reports, Announcements, Appointment Nominations, Presentations Mr. Bassett introduced Paul Nguyen, YCTD Assistant Transportation Planner, who has worked at YCTD for six years and was taking on a different position in the Bay Area. Chair Frerichs presented Mr. Nguyen with the Resolution of Appreciation for his work at YCTD. Agenda Item 6 Oral Update from Veolia Transportation General Manager Carmen Alba reported: Tom Follansbee was appointed as Operations Manager. Dan Thao was appointed as Safety and Training Manager. She stressed that both were hired from within Veolia and Veolia invests considerable time and money into leadership development. Terry Bassett indicated that Veolia actually underwent a fairly rigorous recruitment and interview process, and considered outside candidates, before promoting the two employees from within. In January o Tom Follansbee would attend the Veolia Supervisor Advancement Program training in Las Vegas. o Mikhail Tsytsurin, Maintenance Manager, would attend the annual Maintenance Managers Conference in Las Vegas. o Several managers would attend a 4-day OSHA training session to be held in the District board room Sunday December 15 would be the 2013 Safety Awards banquet with a presentation ceremony in the District board room followed by a trip up to Cache Creek Casino for dinner. Director Villegas arrived Agenda Item 7 Public Hearing on Proposed Yolobus Service Changes Mr. Reitz provided an overview of the proposed changes and customer feedback from workshops and other sources. Mr. Reitz indicated that a summary of all comments was included in the staff report. Director Villegas stated that some of the West Sacramento locations were in need of bus shelters. Mr. Reitz explained that installation of shelters was put on hold pending final determination of any bus stop changes as part of the proposed service changes. Mr. Bassett stated that YCTD would work with West Sacramento staff regarding placement of those shelters once the changes were approved. Chair Frerichs opened the Public Hearing at 7:28 pm William Lowell, West Sacramento, expressed his concerns that the proposed Route 42 changes would not improve connections at the West Sacramento Transit Center with local West Sacramento Route 35. He also suggested minor route modifications for the proposed Route 35 changes. There being no further request to provide testimony, Chair Frerichs closed the Public Hearing at 7:31 pm Minute Order 2013-38 After considering the public comments included in the staff report, as well as testimony at the public hearing, Director Marble made the motion, seconded by Director Villegas, to adopt the proposed changes, subject to minor adjustments, to go into effect on or after February 16, 2014. Roll call resulted in: AYES: Anderson, Frerichs, Marble, Saylor, Villegas NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Chair Frerichs expressed appreciation for Mr. Reitz outreach efforts on the project. Agenda Item 8 Discussion on Sacramento Urbanized and Woodland Small Urbanized Section 5307 Funding Mr. Bassett provided a summary of the staff report. He explained that Woodland having achieved Small Urban status as a result of the 2010 census resulted in YCTD receiving a declining amount of Sacramento Urban 5307 funds. Director Marble stated that Woodland staff had concerns about Woodland possibly bearing a disproportionately large share of funding for Yolobus capital equipment costs. He asked Mr. Bassett to work with City staff toward an equitable resolution. Chair Frerichs asked that the Yolo SACOG representatives consider helping YCTD be treated fairly as the staff proposals moved through the approval process. 2

Agenda Item 9 Receive Director s Report f. Streetcar Update Mr. Bassett informed the board that business outreach activities would be held December 12 and 13. A day trip (sometime in February, 2014) to visit the Portland streetcar system was being considered by Congresswoman Matsui s office. g.

BOARD COMMUNICATIONS: YOLO COUNTY TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT 350 Industrial Way, Woodland, CA 95776----(530) 661-0816 Topic: Authorize Yolo County Agenda Item#: Transportation District to Apply for and Execute Caltrans Planning Grant Agenda Type: 4b Deliberation/*Action Attachments: Yes No Prepared By: Janice Phillips Approved By: Meeting Date: January 13, 2014 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that Board members review the following information on grant opportunities and authorize staff to apply for and execute Caltrans Planning Grant (Transit Professional Development) REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION: YCTD continues to be proactive in pursuing all grants for transportation projects during this period of tight funding. BACKGROUND: A Call for Projects has come from Caltrans for grant proposals. Staff proposes to submit a grant proposal for the YCTD Internship program in the amount of $35,412 grant funds; total project amount of $40,000. The internship program has been highly successful. We utilize interns for service planning, ride checks, special events, information technology projects, and marketing. BUDGET IMPACT: Unknown at this time, depending upon the success of the grant applications in competitive process. 5

BOARD COMMUNICATIONS: YOLO COUNTY TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT 350 Industrial Way, Woodland, CA 95776 --- (530) 661-0816 Topic: Presentation and Agenda Item #: 7 Discussion of 2012/2013 Financial Audit Agenda Type: Deliberation/Action Attachments Yes No Prepared by: K. Reitz Approved by: Meeting Date: January 13, 2014 RECOMMENDATION: This is a presentation of YCTD s 2012/2013 fiscal audit. While no specific action is required, your Board reserves the right to take action on this item. REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION: See above. BACKGROUND: Included in your board packet as a separate attachment is the Financial Audit for the year ending June 30, 2013. Brian Nash, a representative of the audit firm, Richardson & Company, will attend the Yolo County Transportation District s meeting to present their findings. The firm did not identify any deficiencies in internal controls that they considered material weakness, and the audit report was unqualified, which mean that there were no findings. The Single Audit Act and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations, requires non-federal entities that expend equal to or in excess of $500,000, in a fiscal year in federal awards to have an audit performed in accordance with the Single Audit Act. BUDGET IMPACT: There is no budget impact. The audit is paid for by SACOG. 7

BOARD COMMUNICATIONS: YOLO COUNTY TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT 350 Industrial Way, Woodland, CA 95776----(530) 661-0816 Topic: Consider Cap-to-Cap Trip (May 3-7, 2014) Agenda Item#: Agenda Type: 8 Deliberation/*Action Attachments: Yes No Prepared By: Terry Bassett Approved By: Meeting Date: January 13, 2014 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that Board members provide feedback regarding this year s Cap-to-Cap trip and whether YCTD should send a team of two. (Alternatively, because this year s Cap-to-Cap trip is not until May 2014, your Board could defer this item to a future meeting.) REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION: We would like to make certain that the transportation interests of Yolo County jurisdictions are being properly communicated on the Cap-to-Cap trip. BACKGROUND: Each year, the Sacramento Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce organizes and oversees a trip from Sacramento to Washington D.C., where discussions on a variety of topics, from flood protection to transportation, are discussed by Sacramento area business and civic leaders with representatives from a variety of federal agencies and with members of the House of Representatives and the Senate. Last year, approximately 300 officials and senior staff members from throughout the Sacramento region attended the trip. As far as we are aware, the following issues may come up on this year s Cap-to-Cap trip: Legislation that addresses Expiration of MAP-21 (Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century) The Highway Trust fund, the main source of federal revenue used to fund transportation projects, is dwindling so fast that it will not be able to meet its current obligations by the fall of 2014,, the Congressional Budget Office said last Spring. While Congress has passed a Two Year budget framework, the heavy lifting of appropriations is yet to occur. During these uncertain times, we do not know if a successor to MAP-21 will be resolved before the mid-term (November, 2014) elections. For your information, attached are SACOG s federal advocacy principles, which help in determining issues SACOG will follow. Yolo Rail Relocation Study In August, 2013, your board adopted a resolution supporting the creation of a working group to study and advance freight rail realignment in central and eastern Yolo County. Rail Relocation is also a flood control matter and could potentially involve funding sought from a non-transportation revenue source, At this point the working group is seeking an EDA grant to perform an economic analysis of the benefits that would accrue by relocating the rail. They also may be seeking Prop 1E (flood) funding for technical analysis, however, It is premature to determine which funding streams they are likely to tap at this point. West Sacramento/Sacramento Streetcar The cost estimate for the streetcar starter line project, including the streetcar rolling stock, is around $130-$150 million. This project will likely require 50% federal funding, likely matched by local sources coming from the Cities of West Sacramento and Sacramento, and property owners in the proposed service area. Recently, $5 million from SACOG s competitive funding round was programmed to help fund the project development stage (estimated at around $12.7 million). 9

At this point there is no federal dollar request. The group will soon be requesting approval to enter into project development a required step in the process. An actual dollar request won t occur until later. Port of West Sacramento Project (likely continued funding for operations and channel deepening) The Port will likely seek $10 million for annual maintenance dredging. This occurs every year but is getting harder to get enough funds to complete the annual dredging to keep the water channel at 30 feet. The Port also needs federal regulatory agencies to complete a 5-year biological opinion for 2015-2020. The Deepening project is off the table and on hold. Over the last several years, YCTD has sent its Chair and a senior staff member (usually the Executive Director or Deputy Director) on the Cap-to-Cap trip, at a total cost per person of around $4,000. Your board needs to decide if the Cap-to-Cap trip is the best strategy for advocating projects or issues that are in the best interests of YCTD and its member jurisdictions, or if other venues and trips (perhaps earlier in the year) would prove more fruitful. YCTD does not currently contract with a lobbying firm at either the state or federal level. BUDGET IMPACT: The Cap-to-Cap trip was included in the adopted budget. 10

BOARD COMMUNICATIONS: YOLO COUNTY TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT 350 Industrial Way, Woodland, CA 95776----(530) 661-0816 Topic: Consider Possible Agenda Item#: 9 Celebrating Yolo County Mural Project Agenda Type: Deliberation/*Action Attachments: Yes No Prepared By: Terry Bassett Approved By: Meeting Date: January 13, 2014 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that Board members consider directing staff to further investigate a celebrating Yolo County bus community service project, subject to finding outside sponsors willing to subsidize the production work. REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION: Yolobus offers this county an opportunity to showcase itself in a tasteful, positive way, providing a visual benefit to the county and region. BACKGROUND: YCTD has had mixed results when it entered into contracts to sell advertising on its buses. Yuba Sutter Transit brings in about $33,000 a year and Roseville expects $100,000 annually. Our experience has been that the advertising revenue was not worth the tradeoff of staff and contractor labor resources being expended, worsening attractiveness of the fleet, and damage to buses caused by advertising companies. I also did not want to set up situations where significant existing Yolobus revenue could be lost if we opened the fleet up to advertising. Still, the Yolobus fleet offers an opportunity for the YCTD member agencies to undertake a community service effort that promotes and educates the public regarding life in Yolo County. For illustrative purposes only, I ve attached some examples of what a picture campaign could look like on the fleet of buses. I realize this could be a significant undertaking, and that some set of policies and controls would need to be proposed, particularly how artwork or pictures get selected. If your board is interested in pursuing this matter, I would work with our legal counsel and the jurisdictions to work out the details. BUDGET IMPACT: We would pursue such a project, and make budgetary adjustments to reflect it, only if we are able to find outside sponsors. 13

BOARD COMMUNICATION: YOLO COUNTY TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT 350 Industrial Way, Woodland, CA 95776---- (530) 661-0816 Topic: Receive Director s Report Agenda Item #: Agenda Type: 9 Deliberation/Action* Prepared By: Terry Bassett & Janice Phillips Attachments: Yes No Approved By: Meeting Date: January 13, 2014 RECOMMENDATION: Items with a staff recommendation, if any, are in italics and marked with an asterisk below. Your board reserves the right to take action on all items below. BACKGROUND: b) PG&E Natural Gas Transmission Line Inspection Project As part of its efforts to review its natural gas distribution system, sometime between now and June, 2014, PG&E will be conducting somewhat comprehensive tests of its natural gas transmission line that parallels Main Street between Pioneer and East Street. While the actual testing will take only 3-4 weeks, the proposed mobilization and demobilization will take longer. During the 3-4 week testing period, natural gas in the pipeline will be removed. To accommodate its inspection and potential repair activities without disrupting YCTD s supply of natural gas for its buses, PG&E has proposed to provide a natural gas feed using tube trailers at PG&E s expense. We are working with YCTD s legal counsel and PG&E to work out some sort of a document that reasonably depicts PG&E s plans and assurances. c) Streetcar Update On December 12-13, a series of events and meetings associated with the possible establishment of a streetcar system serving West Sacramento, downtown and mid-town Sacramento took place. Several key players and property owners from Portland, Oregon, which has a streetcar system, came down to provide their perspectives and feedback. Events included a reception, dinner, demonstration ride on a new streetcar loaned from Atlanta, breakfast, a tour of the proposed streetcar alignment, and a lunch meeting involving property owners. A trip to Portland on February 21st, involving primarily property owners from the Sacramento/West Sacramento area, and possibly attended by Congresswoman Doris Matsui, is being organized. 31

d) Proposed Sacramento Entertainment and Sports Complex (ESC) Project On December 10 th, YCTD and Regional Transit met in the field with arena consultants to discuss bus stop issues associated with the ESC. Specific possible temporary and permanent bus stop relocations were addressed. The L Street bus stops between 7 th and 5 th Street may potentially be permanently removed. Yolobus has over 900 riders a day who use those stops more than any other transit operator in the region. The establishment of stops on L Street, just east of 7 th, as well as on 6 th Street (implying that buses may need to use Capitol Mall) was part of the discussion. Both Regional Transit and YCTD submitted feedback to the ESC draft EIR at the end of November. We are uncertain how those comments will be addressed or incorporated into the final EIR. In the case of Yolobus, in our letter, we did suggest some added trips (and requested revenue) to accommodate special events, particularly for postevent return trips back to West Sacramento, Woodland and Davis. e) Oral Report f) Attachments i.
