Page 5 APPROVED COUNCIL MEETING Date, II t,,'16 AZUSA, CONSENT ITEM E-6 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL VIA: TROY L. BUTZLAFF, ICMA-CM, CITY MANAGER FROM: DANIEL BOBADILLA, P.E., DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS/CITY ENGINEER DATE: SEPTEMBER 8, 2015 SUBJECT: RESOLUTION URGING THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO PROVIDE NEW SUSTAINABLE FUNDING FOR STATE AND LOCAL TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE AND JOIN THE"FIX OUR ROADS COALITION" SUMMARY: According to recent estimates, the state will need to invest more than $700 billion over the next decade maintaining highways and public transit systems, and making the water system adequate, reliable and sustainable. This figure does not include the substantial cost local cities face in maintaining their streets, sidewalks and other critical infrastructure. The League of California Cities has endorsed an effort to find a new sustainable funding for state and local transportation infrastructure. This action approves a resolution urging the State to provide new sustainable funding for transportation infrastructure and authorizes City participation in the Fix Our Roads Coalition. RECOMMENDATIONS: It is recommended that the City Council take the following actions: 1) Adopt the attached Resolution No. 2015-C44 urging the State to provide new sustainable funding for state and local transportation infrastructure; and 2) Authorize the City Manager to submit an application on behalf of the City to join the "Fix Our Roads Coalition" as requested by the League of California Cities. DISCUSSION: In response to Governor Jerry Brown's proclamation calling for a special session on transportation and infrastructure, both the Senate and Assembly have held hearings to discuss the current conditions of highways, streets, and roads along with the current funding structure. Following Governor Brown's proclamation, the League of California Cities' Board of Directors formally adopted a resolution urging Resolution No. 2015-C44 September 8, 2015 Page Two the Governor and the Legislature to provide new sustainable funding for state and local transportation infrastructure. The League is advocating for a package of $6 billion annually for a minimum of ten years, with funding split between state and local governments. The primary sources of revenue to maintain, repair, and rehabilitate state and local roadways are State and Federal gas tax. However, improved fuel efficiency in newer vehicles along with increasing numbers of electric/hybrid vehicles on the road have decreased overall fuel consumption, resulting in a significant loss of gas tax over the years. In an effort to address the gas tax shortfall and develop a new transportation infrastructure funding plan, the League is working with the "Fix Our Roads Coalition", a broad coalition of cities, counties, labor, business, public safety, and transportation advocates. The League and Coalition support the following seven principles to guide the Legislative special session: 1) Make a significant investment in transportation infrastructure. 2) Focus on maintaining and rehabilitating the current system. 3) Invest a portion of diesel tax and/or cap-and-trade revenue to high-priority goods movement projects. 4) Raise revenues across a broad range of options. 5) Equal split between state and local projects. 6) Strong accountability requirements to protect the taxpayers' investment. 7) Provide consistent annual funding levels. Additional information about the seven principles is provided in the attached fact sheet. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended actions. If the State of California allocates additional funding for transportation infrastructure, the City would receive approximately $2,251,305 annually for a period of ten years.

Brown, Jr. has called an extraordinary session to address the immense underfunding of California's transportation infrastructure; and WHEREAS, cities and counties own and operate more than 81 percent of streets and roads in California, and from the moment we open our front door to drive to work, bike to school, or walk to the bus station, people are dependent upon a safe, reliable local transportation network; and WHEREAS, the City of Azusa has participated in efforts with the California State Association of Counties, League of California Cities, and California's Regional Transportation Planning agencies to study unmet funding needs for local roads and bridges, including sidewalks and other essential components; and WHEREAS, the resulting 2014 California Statewide Local Streets and Roads Needs Assessment, which provides critical analysis and information on the local transportation network's condition and funding needs, indicates that the condition of the local transportation network is deteriorating as predicted in the initial 2008 study; and WHEREAS, the results show that California's local streets and roads are on a path of significant decline. On a scale of zero (failed) to 100 (excellent), the statewide average pavement condition index (PCI) is 66, placing it in the "at risk" category where pavements will begin to deteriorate much more rapidly and require rehabilitation or rebuilding rather than more cost- effective preventative maintenance if funding is not increased; and WHEREAS, if funding remains at the current levels, in 10 years, 25 percent of local streets and roads in California will be in"failed" condition; and WHEREAS, cities and counties need an additional $1.7 billion just to maintain a status quo pavement condition of 66, and much more revenue to operate the system with Best Management Practices, which would reduce the total amount of funding needed for maintenance in the future; and WHEREAS, models show that an additional $3 billion annual investment in the local streets and roads system is expected to improve pavement conditions statewide from an average "at risk" condition to an average "good" condition; and WHEREAS, if additional funding isn't secured now, it will cost taxpayers twice as much to fix the local system in the future, as failure to act this year will increase unmet funding needs for local transportation facilities by $11 billion in five years and $21 billion in ten years; and 1 WHEREAS, modernizing the local street and road system provides well-paying construction jobs and boosts local economies; and WHEREAS, the local street and road system is also critical for farm and market needs, interconnectivity, multimodal needs, and commerce; and WHEREAS, police, fire, and emergency medical services all need safe reliable roads to react quickly to emergency calls and a few minutes of delay can be a matter of life and death; and WHEREAS, maintaining and preserving the local street and road system in good condition will reduce drive times and traffic congestion, improve bicycle safety, and make the pedestrian experience safer and more appealing, which leads to reduced vehicle emissions helping the State achieve its air quality and greenhouse gas emissions reduction goals; and WHEREAS, restoring roads before they fail also reduces construction time which results in less air pollution from heavy equipment and less water pollution from site run-off; and WHEREAS, in addition to the local system, the state highway system needs an additional $5.7 billion annually to address the state's deferred maintenance; and WHEREAS, in order to bring the local system back into a cost-effective condition, at least $7.3 billion annually in new money going directly to cities and counties; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA strongly urges the Governor and Legislature to identify a sufficient and stable funding source for local and road and state highway maintenance and rehabilitation to ensure the safe and efficient mobility of the traveling public and the economic vitality of California. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City of Azusa strongly urges the Governor and Legislature to adopt the following priorities for funding California's streets and roads. 1. Make a significant investment in transportation infrastructure. Any package should seek to raise at least $6 billion annually and should remain in place for at least 10 years or until an alternative method of funding our transportation system is agreed upon. 2. Focus on maintaining rehabilitating the current system. Repairing California's streets and highways involves much more than fixing potholes. It requires major road pavement overlays, fixing unsafe bridges, providing safe access for bicyclists and pedestrians, replacing storm water culverts, as well as operational improvements that necessitate the construction of auxiliary lanes to relieve traffic congestion choke points and fixing design deficiencies that have created unsafe merging and other traffic hazards. Efforts to supply funding for transit in addition to funding for roads should also focus on fixing the system first. 2 3. Equal split between state and local projects. We support sharing revenue for roadway maintenance equally (50/50) between the state and cities and counties, given the equally-pressing funding needs of both systems, as well as the longstanding historical precedent for collecting transportation user fees through a centralized system and sharing the revenues across the entire network through direct subventions. Ensuring that funding to local governments is provided directly, without intermediaries, will accelerate project delivery and ensure maximum accountability. 4. Raise revenues across a broad range of options. Research by the California Alliance for Jobs and Transportation California shows that voters strongly support increased funding for transportation improvements. They are much more open to a package that spreads potential tax or fee increases across a broad range of options, including fuel taxes, license fees, and registration fees, rather than just one source. Additionally, any package should move California toward an all-users pay structure, in which everyone who benefits from the system contributes to maintaining it— from traditional gasoline-fueled vehicles, to new hybrids or electric vehicles, to commercial vehicles. 5. Invest a portion of diesel tax and/or cap & trade revenue to high-priority goods movement project. While the focus of a transportation funding package should be on maintaining and rehabilitating the existing system, California has a critical need to upgrade the goods movement infrastructure that is essential to our economic well- being. Establishing a framework to make appropriate investments in major goods movement arteries can lay the groundwork for greater investments in the future that will also improve air quality and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. 6. Strong accountability requirements to protect the taxpayers' investment. Voters and taxpayers must be assured that all transportation revenues are spent responsibly. Local governments are accustomed to employing transparent processes for selecting road maintenance projects aided by pavement management systems, as well as reporting on the expenditure of transportation funds through the State Controller's Local Streets and Roads Annual Report. 7. Provide Consistent Annual Funding Levels. Under current statute, the annual gas tax adjustment by the Board of Equalization is creating extreme fluctuation in funding levels — a $900 million drop in this budget year alone. A transportation funding package should contain legislation that will create more consistent revenue projections and allow Caltrans and transportation agencies the certainty they need for longer term planning.

CITY OF AZUSA ) I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution No. 2015-C44 was duly adopted by the City Council of the City of Azusa at a regular meeting thereof, held on the 8th day of September, 2015, by the following vote of Council: AYES: COUNCILMEMBERS: GONZALES, CARRILLO, MACIAS, ROCHA NOES: COUNCILMEMBERS: NONE ABSENT: COUNCILMEMBERS: ALVAREZ OP / / ' daridir J- ' r; aj""nce Cornejo, . /� City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: Best B st& Krieger, LLP 1 City A torney 4 ATTACHMENT 2 Problem: California lacks adequate funding to fix crumbling roads, highways, bridges and transportation infrastructure. ' OAD California's network of roads and highways are critical to our quality of life and economy.Yet the condition of our deteriorating network of roads is staggering: Stable,Accountable Funding • Our crumbling roads cost motorists nearly $600 a year per driver for vehicle maintenance. • California has the second highest share of roads in"poor condition"in the nation. • 58%of state roads need rehabilitation or pavement maintenance. • California has 6 of 10 cities with the worst road conditions in the nation. • 55%of local bridges require rehabilitation or replacement. • Nearly 70%of California's urban roads and highways are congested. • Without additional funding, 1/4 of local streets and roads will be in failed condition by 2024. Our state lacks adequate funding to address these critical deficiencies: • Local streets and roads face an estimated shortfall of$78 billion in deferred maintenance and an annual shortfall of$7.8 billion. • CalTrans faces a $59 billion backlog in deferred maintenance and an annual shortfall in the State Highway Operation and Protection Program(SHOPP)of$5.7 billion. Solution: A responsible, accountable solution to fix our roads. A broad coalition of cities, counties,labor,business,public safety and transportation advocates has formed to meet the Governor's call to address California's chronic transportation infrastructure funding shortfall. During the 2015 special session on transportation,we support the following priorities: i. Make a significant investment in transportation infrastructure. If we are to make a meaningful dent that demonstrates tangible benefits to taxpayers and drivers,any package should seek to raise at least $6 billion annually and should remain in place for at least 10 years or until an alternative method of funding our transportation system is agreed upon. 2. Focus on maintaining and rehabilitating the current system. Repairing California's streets and highways involves much more than fixing potholes. It requires major road pavement overlays,fixing unsafe bridges,providing safe access for bicyclists and pedestrians,replacing storm water culverts,as well as operational improvements that necessitate,among other things,the construction of auxiliary lanes to relieve traffic congestion choke points and fixing design deficiencies that have created unsafe merging and other traffic hazards. Efforts to supply funding for transit in addition to funding for roads should also focus on fixing the system first. 3. Invest a portion of diesel tax and/or cap&trade revenue to high-priority goods movement projects. While the focus of a transportation funding package should be on maintaining and rehabilitating the existing system,California has a critical need to upgrade the goods movement infrastructure that is essential to our economic well-being. Establishing a framework to make appropriate investments in major goods movement arteries can lay the groundwork for greater investments in the future that will also improve air quality and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. 4. Raise revenues across a broad range of options. Research by the California Alliance for Jobs and Transportation California shows that voters strongly support increased funding for transportation improvements. They are much more open to a package that spreads potential tax or fee increases across a broad range of options rather than just one source.Additionally,any package should move California toward an all- users pay structure in which everyone who benefits from the system contributes to maintaining it-from traditional gasoline-fueled vehicles,to hybrids, alternative fuel and or electric vehicles, to commercial vehicles.Our coalition supports: • Reasonable increases in: o Gasoline and diesel excise taxes. o Vehicle registration and vehicle license fees. • Dedicating a portion of the cap and trade revenue paid by motorists at the pump to transportation projects that reduce greenhouse emissions. • Ensuring existing transportation revenues are invested in transportation-related purposes (i.e.truck weight fees and fuel taxes for off-road vehicles that are currently being diverted into the general fund). • User charge for electric and other non-fossil fuel powered vehicles that currently do not contribute to road upkeep. 5. Equal split between state and local projects. We support sharing revenue for roadway maintenance equally(50/50)between the state and cities and counties. Funding to local governments should be provided directly(no intermediaries)to accelerate projects and ensure maximum accountability. 6. Strong accountability requirements to protect the taxpayers'investment. Voters and taxpayers must be assured that all transportation revenues are spent responsibly. Authorizing legislation should: • Constitutionally protect transportation revenues for transportation infrastructure only. Time and again(Prop 42, 2002; Prop IA, 2006; Prop 22, 2010),voters have overwhelmingly supported dedicating and constitutionally protecting transportation dollars for those purposes.We strongly support protections that prohibit using transportation dollars for other purposes. • Repay existing transportation loans and end ongoing diversions of transportation revenues,including approximately$850 million in loans to the general fund and the annual loss of approximately$140 million in off-highway vehicle fuel taxes. Strong accountability requirements to protect the taxpayers'investment (Continued). • Establish performance and accountability criteria to ensure efficient and effective use of all funding.All tax dollars should be spent properly, and recipients of new revenues should be held accountable to the taxpayers,whether at the state or local level. Counties and cities should adopt project lists at public hearings and report annually to the State Controller's Office regarding all transportation revenues and expenditures. Local governments should also commit to ensuring any new revenues supplement revenues currently invested in transportation projects. Both Caltrans and local governments can demonstrate and publicize the benefits associated with new transportation investments. • Caltrans reform and oversight.To increase Caltrans effectiveness,provide stronger oversight by the state transportation commission of the programs funded by new revenues and establish an Inspector General office to provide accountability. Reduce Caltrans administrative budgets through efficiency reviews with all savings to be spent on road improvements. • Expedite project delivery. More should be done to streamline project delivery, including but not limited to: o Establishing timelines for actions required by state agencies and eliminating other permit delays. o Increased implementation of alternative delivery systems that encourage more investment from the private sector. o Reforms to speed project completion. 7. Provide Consistent Annual Funding Levels. Under current statute,the annual gas tax adjustment by the Board of Equalization is creating extreme fluctuations in funding levels--a $90o million drop in this budget year alone.A transportation funding package should contain legislation that will create more consistent revenue projections and allow Caltrans and transportation agencies the certainty they need for longer term planning. While this change would not provide any new revenue to transportation, it would provide greater certainty for planning and project delivery purposes.
