CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO
FROM: Jay D Walter, Director of Public Works
Prepared By: John Webster, Transit Manager
SUBJECT: EXECUTION OF A MASTER AGREEMENT AND PROGRAM SUPPLEMENTS
FOR STATE FUNDED TRANSIT PROJECTS
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Adopt a resolution, authorizing the City Manager to execute a master agreement and
program supplements for State funded transit projects.
2. Authorize the Public Works Director to execute all Program Supplements for State funded
transit projects and any amendments thereto required by the California Department of
Transportation.
DISCUSSION
Background
On June 5, 2001 the Council approved a ten year Master grant agreement with the California
Department of Transportation, (Resolution NO. 9190-2001 series-Attachment 1) that authorized the
City of San Luis Obispo to receive funding now or in the future for transit related projects. The
current Master agreement expired on March 1, 2011.
In order to utilize State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) Funds, the City is required to
adopt by resolution (Attachment 2) which authorizes the execution of a Master Agreement(Attachment
3) with the California Transportation Department. This Master Agreement has a ten-year term and will
pertain to all state funded transit projects utilizing the following funding sources:
1. Passenger Rail and Clean Air Bond Act of 1990
2. Clean Air and Transportation Improvement Act of 1990
3. Public Transportation Account Funds
4. State Highway Account
5. Traffic Congestion Relief Funds
6. General Fund
7. Other State Funding Sources
As future transit projects are developed, funded, and approved by the California Transportation
Commission, projects will be administratively incorporated into the Master Agreement as Program
Supplement Amendments. Program Supplement Amendments consist of a brief project description, a
funding plan, and provides other basic information. Program Supplement Amendments must be
executed before the City can charge against any project. There are two advantages of the Master
Agreement. The first advantage of this agreement is that the City will not be required to execute by
resolution a separate cooperative agreement for each transit project. The other advantage of this
agreement is that it streamlines the Program Supplement Amendment process by delegating the
C2-1
2010-11 Program of Projects Page 2
authority to execute amendments to Director of Public Works, the same authority he has for other state
funding programs.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no impact to the General Fund with the approval of these recommendations.
ALTERNATIVE
Deny Master Agreement: The Council may decide not to adopt the Master Agreement, and pursue
project funds through the Federal Transit Administration. This alternative is not recommended
because State funding is an essential component of the City's Transit Program.

expires. RECIPIENT has one hundred and eighty(180) days after that Termination Date to
make already incurred final allowable payments to PROJECT contractors or vendors,prepare the
PROJECT Closeout Report, and submit the final invoice to STATE for reimbursement of
allowable PROJECT costs before those remaining State funds are unencumbered and those funds

any right to allowable reimbursements from STATE pursuant to this AGREEMENT for costs
incurred after that termination date and for costs invoiced to RECIPIENT for payment after that
one hundred and eightieth(180`h) day following the PROJECT Termination Date.

equipment acquisition. For real property, this same funding Ratio shall be applied
to the then present fair market value, as determined by STATE, of the PROJECT
property acquired or improved under this AGREEMENT.

the proceeds of such sale or transfer exclusively to a new or replacement STATE
approved public transit purpose, which replacement facility or vehicles will then
also be subject to the identical use restrictions for that new public purpose and the
Credit ratio due STATE should that replacement project or those replacement
vehicles cease to be used for that intended described pre-approved public transit
purpose.

RECIPIENT, or a sub-recipient, as applicable,has (a)ceased to utilize the
PROJECT for the described intended public transportation purpose(s) for which
STATE funding was provided and STATE has not consented to that cessation
of services or(b) sold or transferred title to or control over PROJECT to another

ARTICLE III—SPECIAL PROVISIONS
Section 1. Bond Provisions (Applicable only to State Bond Funding encumbered
against a specific Program Supplement).
A. General Bond Provisions
(1) If RECIPIENT enters into a management contract with a private party (including
AMTRAK) for operation of rail, ferry or other transportation services in connection
with PROJECT, RECIPIENT will obtain prior approval from Bond Counsel
acceptable to STATE that the terms of that management contract meet the
requirements of Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 97-13 (as supplemented
or amended)or any successor thereto(dealing generally with guidelines for when
management contracts may be deemed not to create a "private use" of bond-financed
property)or are otherwise acceptable.. RECIPIENT must also be prepared to certify,
upon request of STATE, that the revenues which RECIPIENT (or its manager) will
receive directly from the operation of transportation services in connection with
PROJECT(but not including any subsidy of the transportation operation from taxes or
other outside fund sources) are, for any fiscal year, less than the ordinary and necessary
expenses directly attributable to the operation and maintenance of the transportation
system(excluding any overhead or administrative costs of RECIPIENT).
(2) Except as provided in this Article III, A (1), STATE and RECIPIENT agree that any
costs of PROJECT acquired or constructed by RECIPIENT allocable to portions of
PROJECT which are subject to any property interests held by a non-governmental
person(s) in connection with business activities, such as easements, leases, or fee
interests, not generally enjoyed by the public (hereinafter referred to as"Non-
Governmentally Used Property" or"NUP") shall require the prior approval of STATE
and the State Treasurer, as applicable. If RECIPIENT receives any revenues or profits
Revised 1112110
C2-28
ATTACHMENT 3 Recipient Name
Master Agreement No.64AOXX.X�t
Page 19 of 1-Y
from any NUP activities allowed pursuant to this Article(whether approved at this time
or hereafter approved by STATE), RECIPIENT agrees that such revenues or profits
shall be used exclusively for the public transportation services for which PROJECT
was initially approved, either for capital improvements or operating costs. If
RECIPIENT does not so dedicate those revenues or profits, a proportionate share shall
(unless disapproved by Bond Counsel)be paid to STATE equivalent to the Ratio of
STATE's percentage of participation in PROJECT.
(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, RECIPIENT may be authorized to receive an
allocation of bond proceeds for NUP activity, in an amount not to exceed the amount
specified in the PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT, if RECIPIENT submits a certified bond
certification questionnaire to the STATE, and both the STATE and the State Treasurer
approve the private activities contained therein.
(4) RECIPIENT shall not loan any portion of bond proceeds funding PROJECT to any
private(including nonprofit)person or business. For this purpose, a"loan" includes
any arrangement that is the economic equivalent of a loan, regardless of how it is
named.
(5) Delivery by STATE of any bond funds is contingent on the sale of bonds by the State
Treasurer. STATE shall not be held liable for any resulting damage or penalty to
RECIPIENT in the event bond sales are delayed, canceled, or downsized or other
AGREEMENT funds are restricted, limited or otherwise conditioned by acts of
Congress, the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Department of
Transportation, the Legislature, or the CTC.
(6) RECIPIENT shall, for the purposes of any State bond funded right of way acquisition
which will become a permanent part of PROJECT(such acquisitions exclude
temporary construction easements,property allocated to matching funds, and excess
property purchased with State funds whose resale proceeds are returned or credited to
STATE),maintain ownership of such PROJECT property for a minimum of twenty
years or until the bonds have matured, whichever occurs fust, before transferring or
selling such property (subject to all refunds or Credits due STATE as provided
hereinabove.
(7) Where RECIPIENT's PROJECT includes a commuter rail PROJECT within the
meaning of Proposition 116, RECIPIENT shall coordinate and.share with other public
transit operators any rail rights-of=way, common maintenance services and station
facilities used for intercity and commuter rail. Intercity and commuter rail services
shall be coordinated with each other-, with other providers and with freight traffic to
provide integrated rail passenger and freight services with minimal conflict.
(8) RECIPIENT agrees that all passenger vehicles, rail, and water borne ferry equipment,
and all facilities acquired or constructed with Proposition 116 bond funds shall be
accessible to persons with physical disabilities, including wheelchair users, at all stops,
stations and terminals, whether or not staffed.

(9) NUP shall, for accounting and bookkeeping purposes, fust be allocated to funding
sources other than the State bond funds. For purposes of making such allocations, the
costs attributable to NUP involving a sale, easement, lease or similar arrangement shall
be determined on the basis of a fair allocation of value, which may include
determinations based upon square meters/feet of the area encumbered by the NUP lease
or easement relative to the total area acquired or constructed if all such area is of
approximately equal value.
(10)NUP will include,but is not limited to, property which is sold (including sales of air
and subsurface rights), and property subject to easements, leases or similar rights. A
rail right of way will not be treated as NUP solely as a result of a Freight Use Easement
retained by the seller of the right of way to RECIPIENT,provided that the sales
agreement appropriately excludes the Freight Use Easement from the property or rights
being acquired. Further, notwithstanding anything in this Article III to the contrary,
RECIPIENT may allocate grant funds to the cost of any NUP if(a) neither
RECIPIENT nor any other governmental entity will receive, directly or indirectly, any
payments from or on behalf of the non-governmental user of the NUP, or(b)the
payment from such.user does not exceed the operation and maintenance costs fairly
attributable or alldcable to the non-governmental use of the NUP.
(11)RECIPIENT shall request, in writing, STATE's advance approval if PROJECT funds
are to be allocated to any NUP except "incidental use" property described below. If
property, the costs of which have previously been allocated to PROJECT funds, is to
become NUP before the State bond funds are fully paid or redeemed, then
RECIPIENT may allocate the costs of such property to another funding source as
provided or obtain STATE's approval that the allocation of the costs of such property
to the bond funds may remain. It is anticipated that STATE's approval will be granted
if,taking into account the existing and expected uses of the proceeds of the State bonds,
STATE determines that the continued tax-exempt status of the State bonds will not be
adversely affected and that the use of the property is consistent with PROJECT and its
described purpose.
(12) For purposes of these fund source allocations, RECIPIENT does not have to consider
NUP as including those"incidental uses" of PROJECT(for example, advertising
billboards, vending machines, telephones, etc.)which meet the applicable requirements
of federal tax regulations(IRS Notice 87-69 or any successor thereto). In general, such
Notice requires that the incidental use not be physically separated from the rest of
PROJECT and not comprise, in the aggregate, more than 2-1/2% of the total costs of
PROJECT.
Section 2. TCRP PROJECTS
The TRAFFIC CONGESTION RELIEF (TCR)ACT OF 2000 (the"ACT'), was added(in
Chapter 4.5, commencing with section 14556) to part 5.3 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the
