City Clerk City of Seal Beach Approved: Mayor Attest: City Clerk AGENDA STAFF REPORT DATE: June 10, 2013 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council THRU: Jill R. Ingram, City Manager FROM: Sean P. Crumby P.E., Director of Public Works SUBJECT: APPROVE SUBMITTAL OF MEASURE M2 ELIGIBILITY PACKAGE AND ITS COMPONENTS SUMMARY OF REQUEST: It is requested that the City Council: 1. Adopt Resolution No. 6378 Concerning the Status of the Circulation Element for the City of Seal Beach; 2. Adopt the 7 -year Measure M2 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for fiscal years 2013/14 through 2019/20; 3. Submit Maintenance of Effort Reporting Form and Supporting Documentation for the City of Seal Beach to Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA); 4. Submit Congestion Mitigation Program (CMP) Monitoring checklists for the City of Seal Beach to the OCTA; 5. Submit Measure M2 Eligibility Checklist to OCTA; and 6. Direct the City Engineer to file the adopted CIP and the Measure M2 eligibility documents with the OCTA in compliance with the requirements of OCTA. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: In November of 1990, the voters of Orange County approved Measure M, the Revised Traffic Improvement and Growth Management Ordinance. Measure M created a fund for transportation improvements to mitigate traffic impacts generated by existing and proposed development. Measure M authorizes the imposition of an additional half -cent retail transaction and use tax for a period of twenty (20) years. In November of 2006, Measure M was renewed by the voters of Orange County for an additional twenty (20) years and is now referred to as Measure M2. Funds identified as Measure M2 "turnback" funds are used on local and regional transportation improvement and maintenance projects. Other Measure M2 funds, for transportation related projects, are made available through several Agenda Item E competitive programs included in the Combined Transportation Funding Program (CTFP). To be eligible to receive Measure M2 "turnback" and CTFP funds, the Local Transportation Authority (LTA) must find that the City has satisfied specific requirements which change every year (adopted by the City Council on or before June 30th). The Board of Supervisors of Orange County has designated Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) as the Local Transportation Authority. The City of Seal Beach has fulfilled the following initial requirements: 1. Demonstrated compliance with the County's Congestion Management Program. 2. Maintained a mitigation impact fee schedule. 3. Adopted a seven-year Capital Improvement Program that includes all transportation projects funded partially or wholly by Measure M dollars. 4. Adopted and adequately funded a Local Pavement Management Plan (PMP). 5. Adopted a Traffic Demand Management Ordinance. 6. Satisfied Maintenance of Effort (MOE) Requirements. 7. Agreed to expend all Measure M and M2 revenues within three (3) years of receipt. All of these items must be maintained to retain eligibility. Not all of the requirements are needed every year. Some items must be renewed or resubmitted annually and some biannually. The Eligibility package is due to OCTA by June 30, 2013. This year's package will include: 1. Measure M2 seven-year Capital Improvement Program 2. Maintenance of Effort (MOE) Reporting Form 3. Congestion Management Program compliance Checklists 4. General Plan Compliance Documentation 5. Measure M2 Eligibility Checklist A summary explanation of each listed item is included below: 1. MEASURE M2, SEVEN-YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM The City Council adopts a comprehensive seven-year CIP each year. Staff has prepared an updated seven-year CIP specifically for the transportation facility improvement projects in a form consistent with the latest requirements of OCTA. The updated seven-year CIP is attached. 2. MAINTENANCE OF EFFORT REPORTING FORM One of the requirements that went into effect when the voters approved Measure M, and reapproved Measure M2 was that the transportation revenue stream supplement and not replace the general fund investment that local agencies spend on roadway maintenance. In fact the Measure M program compiled the average Page 2 annual maintenance investment that each city made between FY 1985/86 through Fy1989/90 and requires that local agencies continue to invest into the infrastructure with a minimum of that funding level. The Maintenance of Effort form indicates that this is being done for each local jurisdiction. The average annual MOE General Fund expenditure required for the City of Seal Beach, as determined for the Measure M Program, is $505,000. The adopted FY2013/14 budget contains a General Fund expenditure for public works /transportation related costs, which exceeds the baseline MOE requirements. 3. CONGESTION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM The Congestion Management Program (CMP) is a plan to relieve congestion and air pollution. The CMP supports regional mobility and air quality objectives by reducing traffic congestion, provide a mechanism for coordinating land use and development decisions that support the regional economy. This checklist is updated every two years as required by OCTA. 4. GENERAL PLAN COMPLIANCE DOCUMENTATION A participating city must consider, as part of its General Plan, land use planning strategies that accommodate transit and non - motorized transportation. The City of Seal Beach has met these requirements within the currently adopted General Plan. A letter will be submitted to OCTA identifying these strategies. 5. MEASURE M2 ELIGIBILITY CHECKLIST To assist agencies in complying with Measure M2, OCTA has developed checklists to clarify requirements. The checklist has been filled out and it will be transmitted with all other documents as required by OCTA. It is recommended that these checklists be received and filed for transmitting with other required Measure M2 documents. Based on staffs analysis, this comprehensive package of required documents will maintain the City's compliance with the requirements of Measure M2 for fiscal year 2013/2014. Upon approval, the attached documents will be submitted to OCTA. Adoption and submission of the CIP developed by the Public Works Department will permit the City of Seal Beach to continue to receive the City's portion of the Measure M2 revenue funds. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: The submittal of the Measure M2 Eligibility Package is not a project within the California Environmental Quality Act. Page 3 LEGAL ANALYSIS: The City Attorney has review and approved as to form. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The City of Seal Beach receives funding from the Measure M2 program through OCTA. A requirement to receive this funding is submittal of the enclosed eligibility package. The City of Seal Beach annually receives approximately $350,000 and this year has $370,623 budgeted in revenue. The City also applies for a host of competitive grants and on average receives $500,000 in grant funds. This year projects such as the Seal Beach Traffic Management Center (TMC) Relocation ($586,000), Westminster Avenue Bicycle Improvement ($1 M), and Filter Inserts Installation ($10,000) were all funded competitive grant funding. With adoption of the resolution ensures that the City will continue to be eligible to fund maintenance activities and compete for needed infrastructure funding. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 6380: 1. Adopt Resolution No. 6378 Concerning the Status of the Circulation Element for the City of Seal Beach; 2. Adopt the 7-year Measure M2 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for fiscal years 2013/14 through 2019/20; 3.
