Walter, Public Works Director Prepared By: John Webster, Transit Manager SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING ON SLO TRANSIT FARE MODIFICATIONS BACKGROUND The City's transit service is an enterprise fund. As such, the transit service is required to fund itself entirely from grants from local, State, and Federal sources, as well as revenues from passenger fares and subscription service. As a policy, the City's transit service does not receive assistance from the general fund. On June 1,2010, staff presented the financial condition of the Transit Enterprise Fund, highlighting the operating budget deficit, current funding limitations, and recommended program and capital requests to address the identified needs in the Transit Program. There remains a structural deficit in the transit operating budget where annual operating expenses exceed operating revenue. This is the case in 2010-11 and for the foreseeable future. It is also anticipated that ridership rates will remain flat or experience a small decrease. The current fare rates and revenues are not adequate to support current operations due mainly to the reduction of State funding from the drop in sales tax revenue. MTC's Public Hearing on fare modification proposals At its regular meeting on May 12, 2010, MTC members made specific recommendations for budget balancing priorities in regard to service and fare structure modifications and requested that Council set a date for a public hearing. On June 1, 2010, as part of the Transit Enterprise Fund review, Council approved the July 14, 2010, MTC public hearing date. Consistent with City policy, a thirty (30) day public notification of that hearing was issued in order to allow the public to provide input. A comprehensive report will be issued under a separate cover along with the draft minutes and final MTC recommendations after the MTC meeting on July 14, 2010.

As such, the transit service is required to fund itself entirely from grants from local, State, and Federal sources, as well as revenues from passenger fares and subscription service. As a policy, the City's transit service does not receive assistance from the general fund. On June 1,2010, staff presented the financial condition of the Transit Enterprise Fund, highlighting the operating budget deficit, current funding limitations, and recommended program and capital requests to address the identified needs in the Transit Program. There remains a structural deficit in the transit operating budget where annual operating expenses exceed operating revenue. Operating revenues will not meet expenditures in 2010-11 and this appears to be the case for the foreseeable future. It is also anticipated that ridership rates will remain flat or experience a small decrease. The current fare rates and revenues are not adequate to support current operations due mainly to the reduction of State funding from the drop in sales tax revenue. Additional State budget takeaways, higher regional transit funding needs, and federal funding reductions could all have significant negative effects on balancing the transit budget for.2010-11 and beyond. While it appears the transit fund may end 2010-11 with a positive position (due to a surplus of capital funds), the structural deficit will eventually drain this working capital reserve. If revenues do not return to historic levels, the transit fund will not be self-sufficient in the next few years. It is, therefore, critical the City review our current operating levels and determine service priorities Public Hearing on SLO Transit Fare Modifications Page 2 for potential reductions in 2010-11 along with considering revenue enhancements that will ensure that the highest priority services are maintained. The most recent transit fare increases were approved by the Council on May 5, 2009 and went into effect on June 1, 2009. There were three significant reasons for considering fare increases at that time: volatile fuel costs, funding reductions and mandated farebox recovery ratios. The last two of these factors continue to severely limit the City's ability to maintain the existing high level of service to its ridership in 2010-11 and beyond. Funding reductions and mandated farebox recovery rations also limit the City's ability to implement the increased service recommendations contained in the Short Range Transit plan (SRTP) adopted in May 2009. The challenge of the fare increases currently under evaluation is to determine the amount of the increase (while balancing the impact to ridership for those who cannot afford a fare increase), with the service levels that meet the needs of the community over the next several years given the current level of State funding available. DISCUSSION Existing Policy The policy that guides the City's hearings on SLO Transit fare modifications (Attachment 1) was originally approved as part of the Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP) update that was adopted in 2009. Per established policy, a legal notice was published in the Tribune on June 19, 2010, 30 days prior to the Council hearing. Fare modification public hearing notices have also been placed inside the buses, as well at various bus shelters, kiosks and stops. Mass Transportation Committee (MTC) Public Hearing on fare modification proposals At its regular meeting on May 12, 2010, MTC members made specific recommendations for budget balancing priorities in regard to service and fare structure modifications and requested that Council set a date for a public hearing. On June 1, 2010 - as part of the Transit Enterprise Fund review - Council approved the July 14, 2010, date for the MTC to hold a public hearing on this issue. Consistent with City policy, a thirty (30) day public notification of that hearing was issued in order to allow the public to provide input. The MTC held the public hearing on July 14, 2010, and their final recommendations are as follows: 1. Increase the base cash fare from $1.25 to $1.50 (Senior-Disabled from $.60 to $.75) 2. Set $1.00 (Senior-Disabled to $.50) as base cash fare for all Evening service riders on Routes 2, 3, 4, & 6A/613. 3. Eliminate transfers between SLO Transit Routes 4. Direct staff to consider implementing a 31 Day Evening Pass for Cal Poly students and staff to avoid having to carry extra cash. 5. Fare modification effective September 1, 2010 Staff will provide more specific information regarding the proposed 31 Day Cal Poly Evening Pass during the July 20, 2010 Public Hearing presentation. Public Hearing on SLO Transit Fare Modifications Page 3 Uncertain State Funding Levels The Transportation Development Act (TDA) provides funding for transportation programs, which include the Local Transit Fund (LTF) and State Transportation Assistance (STA). The reduction in TDA funding that has occurred over the last three fiscal years has severely limited the City's ability to implement recommendations from the recent SRTP update approved by Council in May 2009. As such existing levels of service are in the process of being evaluated and may require adjustment before the end of FY 2010-11 if TDA revenues continue to drop. Finally, as operating costs have increased, the City's ability to meet the State mandated 20% farebox recovery ratio has become a challenge, leaving the City vulnerable to loss of TDA funding. Legislation signed in March 2010 replaced the sales tax on gas, which has traditionally been used to support transit operations and it was indexed to keep pace with what the sales tax on gasoline would have generated in a given fiscal year. Transit operators received a $400 million one time appropriation for the remainder of 2009-10 and 2010-11. Based on this provision, the San Luis Obispo region received about$1.5 million in STA funding which had been eliminated For 2011- 12 and in subsequent fiscal years, the bill provides for continuous appropriation of 75% of specified revenues in the Public Transportation Account under the applicable formulas to the State Transit Assistance Program. The anticipated City share of this funding should be in the neighborhood of$100,000 annually. Late Breaking News On June 6, 2010 the SLOCOG Board approved the LTF estimated funding level for FY 2010-11 and final STA apportionments for FY 2009-10 and 2010-11. In FY 2009-10 the city share of STA funding was $116,700 and was used to offset the $210,119 reduction in LTF funding due to lower sales tax revenue with the combined LTF/STA amount approved at $992,422. The LTF estimate for 2010-11 is a reduction of $45,600, or approximately 5.2% lower than the actual amount expected to be received in 2009-10. When the newly restored STA funding is included it results in an approximate 4% increase over the previous fiscal year if the estimated LTF revenue proves to be accurate. At the June 1, 2010 Enterprise fund review staff had projected a structural deficit of$127,200 in 2010-11, but with the recent increase in STA funding it has been reduced to $60,204, as reflected in Table 1. The deficit reduction will not be dollar for dollar as some of the additional funding will be used as the local match for the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section 5307 Preventative Maintenance project in the 2010-11 grant. This deficit is projected to grow to $124,088 in 2011-12 if only modest cost increases are experienced and the Cal Poly subsidy arrangement is similar to current contract amounts. The final number will depend on a number of factors including how much funding the Transit fund will have available to carry over into the next fiscal year, and the final State funding available from the LTF/STA. It is worth noting that the revenue and cost assumptions for 2010-11 FY presented to Council during the fund review anticipated additional revenue from fare modifications and reduction of Trolley service on Friday-Sunday. Public Hearing on SLO Transit Fare Modifications Page 4 Table 1- SLO Transit Operating Revenue Deficiency Forecast FY 2009-10 FY 2010-11 FY 2011-12 Operating Structural Deficient $44,566 $60,204 $124,088 Year End Working capital $585,600 $618,100 $519,700 During the last two fiscal years SLOCOG has revised and reduced the estimated LTF funding four times due to lower actual sales tax revenue. For FY 2010-11 SLOCOG has placed limited funds in reserve to be used by local operators to off-set actual reductions in the LTF estimate amount. Table 2 reflects the LTF and STA transit funding levels available to the city since 2005 and gives clear indication regarding the cause of the structural deficit facing the transit program. Table 2 FY LTF STA TOTAL CHANGE 2004-05 $ 1,280,862 $ 59,639 $ 1,340,501 2005-06 $ 1,292,211 $ 71,253 $ 1,363,464 1.7% 2006-07 $ 1,226,765 $ 114,360 $ 1,341,125 -1.6% 2008-09 $ 1,085,830 $ 53,735 $ 1,139,565 -15.0% 2009-10 $ 875,711 $ 116,711 $ 992,422 -12.9% 2010-11 $ 830,111 1 $ 203,005 1 $ 1,033,116 4.1% COMPARE FY 2007 VERSUS FY 2011 -23.0% *STA in 2008-09 FY was for 1 S'& 2d quarter only due to the State elimination of this program that was restored with the gas tax swap legislation in March 2010 Factors for cost increases Fare increases are never welcome. They can be controversial and if they are increased too high, will lead to ridership decline. Recommendations for increased fares must be done in a responsible manner and should be highly transparent and justifiable to the public. Under normal conditions, fare increases are usually considered when increased service levels are being provided or there are serious fiscal issues to maintain service that necessitate the increased cost to patrons. Those two factors were present for the 2009 recommendation, as well as with the present recommendations as the evening service that was established using a one time STA discretionary grant in 2007 has been fully expended and the LTF funding remains below historic levels. The challenge is to determine the best possible service levels to meet the needs of the community within the limited funding anticipated to be received in each year. Other factors that will affect future SLO Transit budgets include; entering into the final year of the Cal Poly operating subsidy agreement that expires on June 30, 2011 which has provided 3% annual funding increases the last three years and that will need to be renegotiated. Except for City staff(2 FTE & .25/temp), all personnel costs related to the SLO transit system are covered under the Council approved contract extension with First Transit Inc starting on July 1, 2010 and running thru June 30, 2012 and categorized as Purchased Transportation expenses. Diesel fuel costs had risen dramatically in recent years peaking in July 2008 at $4.40 per gallon not including tax. Even with recent fuel price reductions the SLO Transit budget will be severely impacted by increased fuel costs in the near future as prices have been slowly increasing over the last twelve months. Industry experts forecast that fuel cost increases will continue this year but hopefully without the sharp increases in per gallon price. Since fuel consumption is a significant Public Hearing on SLO Transit Fare Modifications Page 5 percentage of the cost to run the service (15.25% in FY 2009-10), as fuel prices remain elevated or continue to increase, it is essential to have a fare that can capture a higher percent of the operating costs. This will help in meeting State mandated farebox ratio calculations. Decline in Farebox Ratio Due to the increases in operational costs, the reduction in capitalization of operating expenses, and steady increases in fuel cost, SLO Transit's farebox ratio continues to decline and is now below the requirement levels as mandated by the State. Our 2007-08 audits determined that SLO Transit finished that year right at the 20% farebox recovery level and current estimates are that SLO Transit is operating just below 19% for 2009-10. Should SLO Transit continue to dip below this ratio, a portion of State transit TDA funding can be withheld or eliminated until the required 20% farebox ratio is met again. Under State regulations operators which fail to meet the farebox ratios in a given year would have their TDA allocations reduced during a subsequent penalty year by the amount of the difference between the required and the actual fare revenues. Even a marginal increase in farebox revenue will assist in staying above this level and avoiding service impacts. Staff contacted SLOCOG regarding this issue, and was told that because of SLO Transit's regular record of strong farebox performance, a single year slip below that level is not likely to have an adverse consequence to State funding, nor trigger the first year "grace period" allowed under the regulations. Regional Fare Consistency Regional consistency with fares and fare media has been an issue in the past for San Luis Obispo County. A recent countywide fare study has established new fare objectives to assist passengers using transit services. The San Luis Obispo Regional Transit Authority (SLORTA) recently approved an across the board fare adjustment effective August 1, 2010, which increased their base fare to $1.50 ($.75 Senior/disabled) to assist in RTA's budget issues. They also eliminated free transfers between their routes in May, 2008, which was one of the justifications for the creation of the Regional Day pass that is accepted on the SLO Transit and RTA systems. SLO Transit should consider consistency with this fare adjustment and transfer issue now to be consistent with the other regional providers of county transit services. A comparison of SLO Transit existing & proposed fares and the new SLORTA fare structure is reflected in Table 3. Table-3 FARES SLO TRANSIT PROPOSED 'SLORTA BASE CASH FARE $ 1.25 $ 1.50 $ 1.50 SENIOR/DISABLED CASH FARE $ 0.60 $ 0.75 $ 0.75 31 DAY ADULT $ 37.00 $ 37.00 $ 40.00 31 DAY SENIOR/DISABLED $ 12.50 $ 12.50 $ 20.00 31 DAY STUDENT $ 25.00 $ 25.00 N/A 1 DAY PASS $ 3.00 $ 3.00 N/A 3 DAY PASS $ 5.00 $ 5.00 N/A 5 DAY PASS $ 10.00 $ 10.00 N/A 7 DAY PASS $ 14.00 $ 14.00 N/A REGIONAL DAY PASS ACCEPTED ACCEPTED $ 5.00 31 DAY REGIONAL PASS ACCEPTED ACCEPTED $ 30.00 1 DAY REGIONAL SENIORMISABLED PASS ACCEPTED ACCEPTED $ 30.00 NSFERS ISSUED FREE ELIMINATE NONE r 'SLORTA FARE STURCTURE APPROVED FOR 8/1!1010 i Public Hearing on SLO Transit Fare Modifications Page 6 Cost of Transfer Passes During the Fund Review, one Council Member objected to the idea of charging for transfer passes, from the position that most transit systems issue them for free. Staff researched the issue and found that the number of free transfers issued between routes is down within our system by approximately 18.6% over the previous fiscal year. If the proposed cash fare of$1.50 is approved the cost to a passenger paying for a round trip plus a connecting trip without a free transfer would be $6.00 but the cost of an unlimited ride one-day pass remains at $3.00 and the better bargain. A passenger using a cash fare taking more than one round trip per day without needing a transfer would also benefit by using the $3.00, unlimited ride, one day pass. If a transfer fee of$.05 or more was charged it would still put the cost of a round trip above the $3.00 price for an unlimited ride one day pass. Accordingly eliminating transfers would only seem to have an impact on passengers that make one daily trip with a transfer to a connecting route where the cost would be $3.00 and this passenger profile would not seem to fit the majority of SLO transit riders. A 2009 Fare Summary Survey available from the California Transit Association indicates that out of 73 reporting agencies in California 19 (26%) provide free transfers, 25 (34%) charge a fee ranging from $.15-$1.50 and 29 (40%) do not issue them (meaning the passenger must pay another full fare). This summary is available as Attachment 3 SR TP Implementation Possibilities As mentioned earlier, the service changes recommended in the 2009 approved Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP) represent an overall increase in service that reflects the community goals and needs. Staff believes that the recommended service levels (such as re-establishing service to the Airport) reflect the community's requests and that implementing these recommendations are appropriate if they can be afforded. Unfortunately unless funding returns to historic levels any change of increasing existing service is all but impossible. Additionally a fare increase is a viable way to address the farebox recovery ratio issue and support any chance at future service increases. It is important to note that the May 2009 SRTP (Page 149) increased service recommendations were based upon the pre-gas tax swap level of LTF/STA funding at $1,085,830 annually starting in 2009-10, while the actual funding for that year was $992,422 or -8.6% less. The estimated LTF/STA funding level for 2010-11 is approximately -5% below the SRTP amount. Can we postpone the fare increase? Waiting longer than September 1, 2010 to implement the fare increase is a possible option but will not help meeting the 20% farebox recovery ratio requirement for 2010-11. Even if implemented on September I' there will be less than a full year available if additional cuts need to be made to stay within revised funding projections. The overall transit budget already projects an annual deficit by the end of 2010-11 as further reductions in the LTF are possible based on the last two fiscal year forecasting experience. Also any unanticipated budget increase in SLORTA costs would likely result in reduced LTF funding for other transit jurisdictions including SLO Transit due to the off the top Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) funding arrangement that formally established SLORTA in May 1989. This agreement allocates 49% of Regional Transit costs to the County, 18% to the City of San Luis Obispo, and splits the balance required among the remaining cities based upon their percentage of the population of these cities. Due to the continued expected reductions in TDA funding service competition for scarce transit funding is J Public Hearing on SLO Transit.Fare Modifications Page 7 likely to occur at the regional and local levels. Having a deficit in the budget is significant because it means the transit fund will have less end-of-year carryover (unspent funds from previous fiscal years) to absorb unforeseen costs that may arise. Implementing the fare increase now will help meet City and State transit funding requirements and hopefully allows some ability to maintain current service levels and lay the foundation in order to possibly implement service recommendations for mid and long-term scenarios. FISCAL IMPACT Staff has determined that based upon existing fares and anticipated costs, an adjustment to the base fare should be a minimum of $.25 by raising the existing cash fare from $1.25 to $1.50 (Senior/disabled $.60 to $.75). This proposed fare is based upon exact change requirements and is consistent with other providers in the County. Anticipated revenue estimates f6r the fare modification that went into effect on June 1, 2009, have not met expectations and potential revenue estimates of this fare scenario are difficult especially with the present economic conditions. When compared to 2008-09 fixed route cash is down by -6.7%, but overall pass sale revenue is up by 13.23%and total revenue collected(including Cal Poly subsidy) is up by 3.04%. And although ridership has exceeded 1 million passengers in each of the last three fiscal years it is down from last year by approximately -1.2% and almost -11% in the non-Cal Poly related categories. Cal Poly related ridership was up by 1.7% despite fewer students living off campus. Tables 4, 5, & 6 reflect revenue and ridership data.

For evening service revenue estimates the assumptions are for a 10% reduction of adult, senior/disabled cash riders, and a 50% drop in Cal Poly related riders. Using this information, a $.25 increase in base fare and elimination of free transfers between routes could raise an additional $42,647 annually. Evening service adjustments would add another $18,069 for a total of approximately $60,716. Tables 7 & 8 reflect the proposed fare structure and revenue assumptions.

ALTERNATIVES 1. Deny fare modification. The City Council could choose to deny the fare modifications at this time, thereby eliminating any increase to the current fare structure. Staff does not recommend this alternative. SLO Transit's increase in operating costs, volatile fuel prices, required farebox recovery ratios and limited funding have placed a strain on the Transit Enterprise fund operating budget. Denying a fare increase at this time would place additional burden on resources and service levels such as evening would have to be reduced or eliminated in order to maintain a balanced budget. Furthermore, additional revenue is needed to offset anticipated (LTF) State funding reductions in order to pay for transit service operational costs and avoid service reductions. 2. Revise proposed fare modifications. The City Council could choose to reject the proposed fare modification and direct Staff to revise fare increases. Staff does not recommend this alternative as the proposed fare modifications are consistent with other regional transit providers. ATTACHMENTS 1.

ATTACHMENT City of San Luis Obispo Final Report APPENDIX F Draft San Luis Obispo Transit PUBLIC HEARING PROCEDURES FOR MAJOR SERVICE OR FARE CHANGES L BACKGROUND San Luis Obispo Transit (SLO Transit) is required by the Federal Transit Act, as amended through 1992, to establish a policy, which defines a process to solicit and consider public comment prior to raising fares or implementing a major reduction of transit services. H. SAN LUIS OBISPO TRANSIT POLICY 6. It shall be SLO Transit's policy that public comments be solicited prior to: (i) Any permanent change, which increases fares on SLO Transit's fixed- route service.

W Y� W ATTACHMENT#4 CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO MASS TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE COUNCIL HEARING ROOM 995 PALM ST. WEDNESDAY,JULY 149 2010 DRAFT MINUTES CALL TO ORDER: Chairperson Elizabeth Thyne called the meeting to order at 2:50 p.m. ROLL CALL Present: Susan Rains, Denise Martinez, Elizabeth Thyne, Stanley Yucikas, Art Apruzzese, Louise Justice, Margaret Crockett and Jonathan Ellis Absent: Tracey Amundson Staff: John Webster, Tim Bochum ANNOUNCEMENTS There were no announcements. PUBLIC COMMENTS There were no public comments on non agenda items. A. CONSENT ITEMS A-1. Approval of May 14, 2010 Regular Meeting Minutes Mr. Apruzzese noted that Tracey Amundson arrived late and was at the meeting and that he had voted in favor of the motion to forward staff recommendations to Council. Ms. Crockett moved to approve the May 14, 2010 meeting minutes as amended. Ms. Martinez seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously. i ATTACHMENT#4 B. DISCUSSION ITEMS B-1. Re-alignment of routes 4 &:5 on Mill St. Mr. Webster discussed the need for re-aligning Routes 4 & 5 due to the desire to expand service into the area that has the Limberg Medical plaza along with apartment complexes and the need to establish two more stops in the vicinity of Johnson Ave. and Phillips Lane. Also height requirements of the double-decker and the historical nature of the section of Mill Street between Johnson and Pepper as additional factors. He stated the neighborhood property owners and residents had been noticed and he had met with two residents that had initial concerns about including at stop near their property on Johnson Ave. A second resident sent a letter and expressed concern about bus traffic on Johnson near Mill and Mr. Webster talked to him over the telephone and he understands(although not supporting) the reasoning behind the realignment. C. ACTION ITEMS C-1. Public hearing on proposed fare modifications Mr. Webster handed out five (5) copies of items for Committee review, which included the following: • Email comments from Jennifer C. Allen-Barker regarding fare modifications ■ Red file memo regarding MTC Member Apruzzese fare modification email ■ Public fare increase noticing efforts in both English and Spanish ■ RTA fare increase notice for August 01, 2010 implementation ■ Cash fare vs.pass usage and ridership numbers, along with a fare structure breakdown. (Final FY 2009-10 data) Mr. Webster briefly explained the handouts and stated that he had not received any additional public comment on the fare modification proposals and that sufficient public noticing had been done and met the requirements for the public hearing. Mr. Webster then discussed the structural deficit generated by the reduction in state TDA (LTF/STA) funding. He also discussed the FY 2009-10 final ridership numbers and revenue from cash fares and pass sales. He provided an update on Council actions on June 1, 2010 with regards to transit budget reductions such as bus shelter cleaning, travel & meeting and marketing and elimination of the Trolley service on Friday-Sunday starting on September 1, 2010. He outlined the estimated impact and assumptions of the proposed cash fare modifications under review including evening service fare charges, transfer charges versus complete elimination, and the impact to assist lowering the deficit. He indicated that the existing transit budget for FY 2010-11 includes additional fare modification revenue assumptions along with the elimination of Trolley service on Friday thru Sunday. 2 ATTACHMENT#4 He stated that if fare increases were postponed or not recommended that service reductions might need to be implemented to offset the budget. He noted that sales tax projections were not favorable and given the experience in the last two fiscal years regarding sales tax revenue which generates the State Transportation Development Act (TDA) and Local Transit Fund(LTF) share of transit funding that accurately predicting a true fiscal impact was all but impossible at this juncture. Mr. Webster outlined the staff recommendations in the report as follows: ■ Increase base cash fare from$1.25 to $1.50 (Senior/Disabled from$.60 to $.75) i Lower base cash fare from$1.25 to$1.00 (Senior/Disabled from$.60 to $.50) for all Evening service riders on Routes 2, 3, 4& 6A/B. ■ Eliminate transfers between SLO Transit routes ® Make above recommendations effective September 1, 2010 Mr. Apruzzese felt that cutting marketing budget was counter-productive and felt now was the time for promotion to be more aggressive and that a professional marketing firm should be hired to implement a strategy. He distributed information he had written regarding capturing discretionary car drivers and transit riders. The Committee agreed Mr. Apruzzese's recommendations should be put on the September meeting agenda to discuss. Mr. Yucikas suggested that the Cal Poly public relations department could undertake this effort as a class project. Mr. Webster agreed to explore this possibility and noted there is an on going website project that provide additional marketing opportunities. Mr. Yucikas also discussed the possible economies of scale for integrating all transit agencies/systems within the county and staff indicated that every avenue was being explored in an effort to provide the greatest amount of service with the available funding. Ms. Rains suggested that if the fare structure is ultimately approved by Council, staff should consider creating a Cal Poly evening pass so students and staff would not have to carry cash. Mr. Webster noted that this could be included as a recommendation for the final fare modifications for Council to consider. At this point MTC Chair(Elizabeth Thyne)noted that six(6) members of the public had signed speaker cards and allowed them to comment on the proposals. Mr. Webster noted that comments from Jennifer C. Allen-Barker would be included in the minutes and sent to Council as part of the official record. Betty Kennedy, 3000 August,#206, SLO, was concerned that the$12.50 senior monthly pass would be eliminated or increased. 3 1 ATTACHMENT*4 Mr. Webster stated that all existing passes are not under consideration for any fare modification or elimination at this time and would not be affected. Willow Walking Turtle, 1121 Orcutt Road, SLO discussed the structural deficit concept vs. structural change and stated she favored Mr. Apruzzese's goal of getting people out of their cars and riding transit. She discussed investigating other cities' traffic congestion and public transit methods, citing London and Tacoma as examples. She favored consolidating all regional transit and believed that fares should be lowered— not raised— to encourage ridership. She also stated she felt the double-decker bus was an unnecessary, expensive purchase. Mr. Webster replied that prior to the purchase the analysis indicated it would be cost effective for our transit system as it has 83 seats and the capability of carrying more passengers than two (2)regular buses running at the same time while only requiring costs of a single driver. There have been problems with over capacity issues on routes serving Cal Poly and passengers being left behind at bus stops and this was also noted in the recent Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP). In this case the city does not have the ability to increase the frequency or add additional buses due to the extra cost to operate with limited funds available. During a trial period in November 2008 a similar vehicle carried approximately 110 passengers on various trips and staff had received over 100 passenger comment cards with many in support of purchasing this type of vehicle. He also noted that 90% of the approximate $850,000 purchase cost was covered by Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section 5307 funding and the remaining came from grants and state Prop 1B bond money and there was not any City General funds being used. He further indicated that this was FTA Capital funding and could not be used for operations or to reduce the deficit. Allen Barbee, resident, confirmed with staff that the rate increases were proposed for all routes. He felt that charging Cal Poly students $1 to ride evening service routes might make them decide to just drive their cars. He also did not favor decreasing service during the summer. Ray Castro, resident, felt that raising cash fares would discourage discretionary riders. Mr. Bochum noted that if cash fares were increased, in many cases riders would realize that buying the discount passes would actually be more cost-effective for their transportation needs and believed pass purchases would increase. Anthony Collins, resident, felt that instead of eliminating the free transfer option, that minor costs could be spread over the passes to keep the option in place. There was a lengthy discussion regarding the elimination of transfers or adding a small fee. Mr. Webster stated that the unlimited ride $3/day pass would work best for those who needed to transfer between routes or rode multiple times during any given day and he agreed with Mr. Bochum that many would probably move towards buying passes instead of having to deal with increased cash fares. 4 i ATTACHMENT#4 - Mr. Yucikas felt that drivers should be strongly encouraged to mention these types of pass savings and options to cash-paying riders as part of customer service and promotion. Leslie Halls, 1359 Oceanaire, SLO, agreed with structural changes that would get people to ride the bus instead of drive their cars. She discussed the possibilities of funding issues and problems via the Enterprise Fund and agreed that raising rates would discourage riders. She was strongly against raising fares and indicated the city should consider eliminating three (3) city positions and use the salary and benefit savings for transit system operation. Staff discussed the various ways in which the city subsidized transit services, e.g. keeping the senior/disabled fares low, allocating General Fund money for a token program administered by the Prado Day Center, the Downtown Access Pass (DAP) funded by the Parking Enterprise fund to reduce traffic congestion in the downtown area etc. and also outlined some details about the Cal Poly subsidy agreement that supported campus personnel and students. Mr. Webster stated that one of the recommendations had been to eliminate evening service completely and that Cal Poly representatives felt it would be better to try to keep it in place and felt that students and staff would be willing to pay for it. He further noted that if it proved that evening service with fares in place was not being utilized, the service might be eliminated at some point. Ms. Crockett moved to accept the complete slate of staff recommendations as set forth in the report. Ms. Martinez seconded the motion. ■ Increase base cash fare from$1.25 to $1.50 (Senior/Disabled from$.60 to $.75) ■ Lower base cash fare from $1.25 to $1.00 (Senior/Disabled from$.60 to $.50) for all Evening service riders on Routes 2, 3,4& 6A/B. ■ Eliminate transfers between SLO Transit routes ■ Make above recommendations effective September 1, 2010 The motion passed, with Mr. Apruzzese voting against it, as he was opposed to any fare increase at this time as well as eliminating the free transfer option. Ms. Rains moved to direct staff to develop a Cal Poly evening service pass. Ms. Thyne seconded the motion.. The motion passed unanimously. s ATTACHMENT#4 D. INFORMATION ITEMS D-1. Transit Manager's Report D-2. Operating-Performance Reports Mr. Webster presented highlight discussion on the reports as presented. MEMBER COMMENTS Louise Justice noted the progress for the VIP pass sign up at Judson Terrace and commended Beverly Kennedy for her work on this issue as over 26 seniors have expressed interest in taking the bus. The meeting adjourned at 4:50 p.m. The next regular meeting is September 8, 2010 at 2:45 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Lisa Woske, Recording Secretary 6 Page 1 of 4 ATTACHMENT#4 Webster, John From: Jennifer C.Allen-Barker, OTR/L[jcbarker@calpoly.edu] Sent: Friday, July 09, 2010 8:14 AM To: Webster, John Subject: Re: proposed fare increase yes, this does.

The evening service(Monday-Friday) is clearly defined on the transit schedule map as follows: htti)://www.slocitv.ocq/publicworks/download/busmar).Pd Route 2-6:50 pm-10:18 pm Route 3-6:18 pm-10:34 pm Route 4-6:20 pm-10:44 pm Route 6A-6:10 pm-10:19 pm Route 6B-6:32 pm-10:56 pm Hope this clarifies. John From: Jennifer C. Allen-Barker, OTR/L[mailto:jcbarker@calpoly.edu] Sent: Thursday,July 08, 2010 2:33 PM To: Webster,John Subject: Re: proposed fare increase 7/12/2010 Page 2 of 4 ATTACHMENT#4 John - I just re-read your response, and realize I'm not clear on the costs. As I understand it, there is a proposed fare increase for all riders ($ .50 for most riders and $ .25 for seniors/disabled per trip). And, evening riders, who are associated with Cal Poly, will not be able to use their Poly ID cards to cover their fares. They will have to pay $1.50/trip for evening service. Is this correct? What time does "evening service" start, relevant to the payment of a cash fare? I assume the cost to purchase passes will be increasing as well. Sorry for not asking all the questions the first time.

The CP ID card would not be valid on these routes. Of course all of our SLO Transit passes (1 139517 & 31 ) along with the RTA Regional day and 31 day pass would be acceptable as well. 8 7/12/2010 Page 3 of 4 ATTACHMENT#4 The Mass Transportation Committee (MTC) is holding a public hearing as part of their regular meeting on Wednesday, July 14th from 2:45 pm-4:45 pm in the Council hearing room at 990 Palm Street/City Hall. The easiest way to comment would be via email (sent to me) or in writing sent to my attention (see contact info below) and of course in person at the MTC meeting. SLO Council will also be holding a public hearing on Tuesday, July 20th at 7:00 pm in the Council Chambers at City Hall to review the MTC recommendations and accept public comment. If they approve the recommendations the staff report intent is to implement on September 1 , 2010 without any additional hearings but again the ultimate decision is in their hands.

I wanted to know if the Cal Poly fare charge in the evenings applies also to staff/faculty as well, or just students? Also, I think the report said that there is a hearing coming up on 7/14 9 7/12/2010 Page 4 of 4 ATTACHMENT#4 at 2:45. Is this the correct time and date? What is the location of the hearing? Can people offer comment by phone or email as well? Will there be other hearings in the Fall, once the majority of the 18,000 students are be back in town? I'd also like to request that you send an announcement, if you have one, about the hearing(s) to me, so that I can "spread the word'.. hope your summer is going well. Thank you, Jennifer C.

Additional comments: since this decision would apparently be made this summer and implemented Sept 1, the MTC and transit will need to make significant efforts to advertise the changes to the returning students and faculty, as well as inform the WOW group leadership, so they all know to carry change for evening fares. I also think you would gain good will by postponing the decision until classes at Cal Poly resume in the Fall, so you can solicit feedback from your largest block of ridership. Thank you for your due consideration of my concerns and comments on this matter. Jennifer C.

I am the Technical Representative on the City Council's Mass Transportation Committee (MTC). I have served as a Transit Analyst with the City of Chula Vista, California and I'm a resident of San Luis Obispo, California. The views I express this evening are my own, and are not those of the MTC. I am here this evening to speak in opposition to the proposed fare and transfer modifications for SLO Transit. I believe there is a better, more proactive response to the current and future fiscal challenges which face our local bus service. I believe we must `work the problem" and avoid taking actions which may harm our community. I was the lone dissenting vote in MTCs approval of staff's recommendations during last week's public hearing. My opposition to these fare and transfer policy modifications is based on the following rationale: Public transit is an important public service which should meet the transportation needs of all citizens, regardless of economic status or ability to pay. A majority of SLO Transit riders are "transit dependent" and have low, very low and fixed incomes. They have few transportation options other than the bus.. At a time of nationwide economic stagnation and worldwide environmental collapse, city officials should do everything they can to encourage people to use their personal automobiles less and ride public transit more. Increasing fares and eliminating transfers so much and so soon after last year's large, 25% fare increase sends the wrong message to our loyal, long-term riders and may deter new patrons from riding SLO Transit as well. It is a long-established fact in the transit profession that, as operating costs increase and tax revenue vanishes, fare hikes and service reductions discourage bus ridership - which leads to a vicious cycle of further fare hikes and service cutbacks. Indeed, John Webster, City Transit Manager, forecasts a possible 10% reduction in daytime and evening adult and senior/disabled cash riders if the proposed fare modifications are approved, and he warned the MTC at last week's public hearing that further fare hikes and service reductions may be necessary down the road. But it need not come down to these false choices: I think there is a better way, a more proactive, optimistic and productive scenario which may very well lead to a Golden Age for SLO Transit. Instead of dramatically increasing fares again and eliminating transfers, I propose consideration of the following positive, system-building solutions: My first alternative (See Exhibit "A") is the need for a comprehensive, professional Transit Marketing Study specifically designed to provide city staff with recommendations about how best to attract and retain new, discretionary riders to SLO Transit. There is a large pool of potential riders in the city of San Luis Obispo who can and should be using SLO Transit buses rather than their personal automobiles to get around town. SLO Transit has a brand new bus fleet which operates professional, reliable, safe, affordable and convenient service. But most local residents, who use their automobiles to commute to work and other purposes, may not know much about SLO Transit. If the city hires a professional marketing firm with proven ability to conduct successful passenger- generating campaigns, I believe SLO Transit will have the potential to substantially increase patronage, enhance farebox revenue and reduce the necessity for future fare increases and service reductions. The MTC requested that staff look into this option last week. The Short Range Transit Plan Update for the City of San Luis Obispo also recommends that: "Marketing efforts should be geared to joint marketing efforts between SLO Transit and SLORTA to increase awareness of regional transit operations." (Page 155) Pagel of 3 Funding for the Transit Marketing Stud may be within the scope of the city's "Measure Y" priorities and major city goals, especially its "Traffic Congestion Relief'goal. This goal seeks to "expand efforts to reduce and manage traffic congestion throughout the City, including the Los Osos Valley Road corridor and interchange." What better way to mitigate traffic congestion than to promote SLO Transit and encourage people to ride the bus and leave their cars at home! My second alternative is a recommendation that the city and county hire a professional transportation consultant to undertake a feasibility study to weigh the costs and benefits of consolidating local and regional transit services and resources. This concept was raised by the MTC Vice Chair, Stanley Yucikas, at last week's public hearing, and I am carrying the ball forward for consideration by the City Council tonight. I must stress that full consolidation of transit services between the city and county is a back-up option which should only be seriously considered if marketing efforts fail to attract sufficient additional ridership to SLO Transit. Operating concurrently with the proposed Transit Marketing Study, City Council approval for the Transit Regionalization Feasibility Study should be given as soon as possible since time is working against us. There is no guarantee that future state transit funding will not erode further. Potential economies of scale, realized through consolidation of local and regional transit routes, capital equipment, facilities, staff and administration, may or may not be sufficient to appreciably reduce operating costs and increase the all-important "farebox recovery ratio." But all options must be explored, and this one is preferable to perpetually increasing transit fares, reducing service and placing city transit services at risk. The Short Range Transit Plan Update notes: "The list below presents the issues and opportunities for the SLO Transit route network:.Duplication with SLORTA services." (One of 13 items on the list, Page 127) Exploring alternate means of raising transit revenue and reducing operating costs is an idea whose time has come. When we succeed in getting people out of their cars and onto our buses everyone wins: the average citizen wins because his mobility options are enhanced at a fraction of the cost of traveling by automobile, and he can breathe cleaner air; SLO Transit wins because it has a larger ridership base and a more sustainable, reliable and diverse revenue stream; the city wins because it can offer residents and visitors a higher quality of life, a more dynamic economy and lower infrastructure maintenance costs resulting from reduced traffic congestion; the nation wins because it is less dependent on sources of foreign oil and less vulnerable to political instability in far-off lands; and, finally, the planet wins because carbon emissions are lowered and global warming is slowed. The San Luis Obispo City Council is a nationally and internationally recognized and admired legislative body, known for its progressive health and quality of life policies and environmentally-enlightened decisions. I encourage the City Council to add to this enviable reputation tonight and demonstrate the political will, vision and leadership to reject these fare modification recommendations. Instead I advocate the City Council direct staff to thoroughly explore and report back on the costs and benefits associated with undertaking a Transit Marketing Study and Transit Regionalization Feasibility Study. Now is the time and San Luis Obispo is the place to once again lead the nation toward a greener, healthier, and more equitable future. Thank you.

Potential Benefits of a Professional SLO Transit Marketing Campaign Promotes Use of Local and Regional Transit Resources by New Riders thus: Enhances Farebox Revenue by Increasing Ridership. Balances, Stabilizes and Increases "Farebox Recovery Ratio." Diminishes the Likelihood of Future Service Reductions and Fare Increases. Increases Local Control of Revenue Stream.

Reduces Traffic Congestion, Noise and Risk of Auto Accidents. Reduces Automobile Use, thus Reduces Infrastructure Maintenance & Associated City Costs. Reduces Local Dependence on Sources of Foreign Oil. Research A—SLO Transit Discretionary Rider Ouestions Who is the potential discretionary bus rider, where does he travel to, how much does he pay to use his auto? How many potential discretionary bus riders exist in SLO and the regional transit market? What will best motivate local car drivers to switch to the bus (e.g. stimulate economic self-interest, lower personal transportation costs, enhance convenience, safety, relaxation)? How much excess capacity exists in the SLO Transit System to absorb increased ridership? Cost of Expansion? How much might total ridership increase in absolute and percentage terms if a Professional Marketing Firm is hired to promote patronage on SLO Transit buses? Research B—Transit Marketing Study(TMS) Ouestions, Cal Poly Participation How much will the Transit Marketing Study(TMS) cost? Where will the funds to pay for the TMS come from? Can Cal Poly Marketing Program be accessed and utilized? Are SLOCOG, SLORTA or City"Measure Y" funds available to conduct the TMS Campaign? What specific experience will the TMS consultant candidate need to demonstrate transit ridership development? How many communities has the TMS consultant candidate assisted in California and the nation? What specific elements should the TMS Plan included? How long will the TMS Plan take to prepare and initiate? How long will it be before the benefits of the TMS Plan can be assessed and evaluated? What criteria will be used? War SLO Transit is in a war against Time. More state budget cuts are likely in the future. SLO Transit is also in a war against the Automobile. We must take back the streets from the automobile! Every local car driver that can take mass transit, but chooses to drive their own car instead, is costing SLO Transit vital revenue and, therefore, threatens its very existence. A local tax on automobile use, designed to encourage patronage of mass transit and defray SLO Transit overatina costs, is an idea which the City Council may now want to consider.

The issue that needs to be discussed is the type of ridership our local transit system has been able to attract. Beyond Cal Poly's student ridership and those who are transit dependent the system continues to be unable to attract "choice" ridership. Attracting "choice" riders- those who have means of transportation other than public transit but choose public transit over driving has not really been a priority. I know the City instituted the Gold Pass (DOWNTOWN ACCESS PASS)program a number of years back, which is paid for out of the parking fund for those who work in the downtown area but beyond that not much has been done. The Council should set a reasonable 1 year goal that the Transit Manager is tasked with to improve the number of choice riders the system carries. Ultimately the Transit ridership figures should be evaluated against the City's adopted Circulation Element. I'm guessing that the City is nowhere near the modal split objectives contained in the Circulation Element. Developing strategies and programs that will increase choice ridership will bring two fold benefits: 1. Increase total fare box revenue. 2. Reduce the number of vehicle miles driven therefore lessening congestion and pollution. Many years ago I sent a pretty detailed concept of what I called the "Super Commuter Pass" program. Basically it was a monthly pass that was less expensive than a regular monthly pass but the hours of use were restricted to commuting times with the pass holder paying a discounted rate for rides outside those commute times. Nobody, except the RTA manager, at the time seemed to care. Sincerely, Brett Cross i Name: Dr. Joanne Smith Address: 350 Island St. City: Morro Bay /!

The suggestion to raise rates for riding public transportation will create a hardship to the poorest of people in or communty. Even 25 cents a day adds up to @2.25/week which is really hard to come up with for the single parents going trying to get to low paying jobs or various child need appointments, the poor trying to get to and from work, our disabled citizens and our senior citizens. I strongle oppose raising transportation rates. RECEIVED AUG 0 3 2010 SLO CITY CLERK
