Jeff will present some of the recommendations of the forthcoming draft study including rumble strips and segments of the Edna-Price Canyon Trail. ACTION ITEMS: Agenda Item #3: City Budget Goals, Draft BAC Recommendations (40 min) -- Fukushima Every two years the City Council adopts a Financial Plan (sometimes called a two -year budget). This Plan spells out how the City will spend money on programs and projects for the next two years. As part of this process, all advisory groups are invited to submit budget goals for Council consideration. The process for providing this information is a two -step process. In the first step (this meeting), the advisory body develops preliminary goals. In the second step (our November meeting), the advisory body reviews the preliminary recommendations of the other advisory bodies and finalizes its recommendations. Council goals, by their nature, usually tend to be broader in scope than the work programs developed by advisory bodies. City Council is seeking advisory body input on:  What are the most important goals the City should pursue in the next two years?  Why is each goal important as a community priority?  How might the goal be accomplished (creative funding or implementation ideas)? To help guide the Committee in identifying the most important projects or programs to pursue, members should review the following:  Bicycle Transportation Plan Implementation Action Items (Attachment 2)  Top ranked 2013 Bicycle Transportation Plan Projects (Attachment 3). This lists the top three ranked projects by project “class” along with all projects from the catch -all “other” category. For full project descriptions, view the Bicycle Transportation Plan on the City’s web site (page numbers have been provided). 3  Bicycle Friendly Community Report Card 2015 (Appendix 4)  “Budget-In-Brief, 2015-17 Financial Plan”. The “Major City Goals” outlines the City’s current priorities. (Attachment 5)  2015-17 Five Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) excerpt of bicycling related projects. Note that any costs identified in 2017-2019 and beyond have not received funding approvals. The complete CIP is available online at: http://www.slocity.org/Home/ShowDocument?id=7563 (Attachment 6)  Final Bicycle Advisory Committee Budget Goal Recommendations for FY 2015-17 (Attachment 7) Next Steps: The BAC’s preliminary goals will be transmitted to the Finance and IT Department. Staff will assemble a master list of all preliminary advisory body goals for a final review by the Committee at its November 17, 2016 meeting. At that time, the BAC can review the goal statements, provide additional refinements or identify new goals, and forward final recommendations to the City Council. Staff Recommendation: The BAC should formulate preliminary goals. The BAC may wish to utilize the previous format (Attachment 7) to organize its recommendations. Agenda Item #4: Rough Pavement on Santa Rosa (State Route 1) between Highland and Foothill (15 min) – Weisenthal At the July BAC meeting, Myron Amerine gave public comment that the pavement was rough as a result of the resurfacing work completed this summer by Caltrans on Santa Rosa Street between Highland and Foothill. Santa Rosa is part of State Route 1 and is under the jurisdiction of Caltrans. In response, the BAC took action to place the item on the agenda for discussion at the next BAC meeting. Since the July meeting, city staff has informed Caltrans of the pavement concern and Caltrans responded by grinding down and smoothing the pavement. Staff Recommendation: Inspect the grinding work performed by Caltrans since the July meeting and consider any further action.

The fiscal year is a 12-month period used to measure revenues and expenditures. It starts July 1 and ends June 30 the following year. How much does the 1/2 percent sales tax (Measure G) generate? Approximately $7.2 million annually. How much is the General Fund Reserve? At least 20 percent of General Fund operating costs (about $11 M). Why can’t we use resources other than the General Fund to pay for priority services such as fire, police and parks? Enterprise, special revenue, and assessment funds have legal restric- tions that mandate the collection and expenditure of these funds for very specific purposes. Where can I find the budget and other financial documents? The 2015-17 Financial Plan is available at www.slocity.org/budget. Measure G Project in Focus: Open Space Protection Revenue from Measure G (combined with outside grant funding) will enable the City to pursue land conservation opportunities in the Cuesta Canyon area of the City's Greenbelt through acquisition and protection of portions of The Miossi Brothers La Cuesta Ranch and the Ahearn Family Ranch.

Elements of the Bicycle Transportation Plan are implemented through private development and other larger capital projects. This Capital Project encompasses implementation of various projects and programs which are not under the umbrella of other larger projects, either private or public. Two line items of this capital project include plan & program development in 2015-16. The implementation section of the bicycle transportation plan calls for a prioritization and refinement of projects and alternatives. This task will be primarily conducted by staff along with an additional $5,000 in 2015-16 for consultant services support and outreach activities. Development of an active transportation education & advocacy plan will refine future campaigns for concepts like pedestrian rodeos, & car free days, and other Active Transportation events. This task will also be primarily conducted by staff and supplemented by an additional $10,000 in 2015-16 for consultant services support & outreach materials.Five line items of this capital project include study, design, and construction activities related to priority capital projects identified in the Bicycle Transportation Plan. They are noted as follows, 1) Modification of the Highland & Chorro intersection to improve bicycle connectivity ($20k in 15-16). 2), Broad Street Bike Boulevard ($90k in 15-16). 3), Project development and right of way activities for making a Class I connection along the future Prado Road alignment connecting Higuera & Broad Street ($100k in 15-16). 4) Installing a bike box at Chorro & Foothill ($10k in 15-16). 5) Connecting the Railroad Safety Trail to the Laurel & Orcutt connection (this is in advance of the construction of the trail to the south, an obligation of the Orcutt Area development currently in the review. ($150k in 15-16).

This funding allows the City to complete small-scale bicycle facility improvements in a cost efficient manner by incorporating them into larger projects such as the City’s annual pavement maintenance project. Past projects include removal of storm drain grates that impact bike lanes, bike lane signing and striping, and shared lane markings in conjunction with City paving projects, and striping for new on-street bike parking downtown. The 2009-11 American Community Survey estimates that 3% of County residents commute by bike to work in comparison to 6.7% of City residents.Improving bikeways encourages bicycle riding as an alternative travel mode, supporting congestion relief and greenhouse gas emission reduction.Readiness to Build4 Study complete or … n/a … Equipment purchased or 4 n/a 4 Property owned or property agreement in place … n/a 4Environmental approval and permits complete or…n/a…Specifications or construction documents complete4 n/a …IT Steering Committee review 4n/aEnvironmental Review and Permits Required4 Environmental Review … n/a …Building Permit4n/a…Waterway Permits (Fish & Wildlife, Water Quality, Army Corps) 4n/a…Railroad4n/a4Other: City Encroachment Permit3-122Attachment 6, Page 7 of 26 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN - TRANSPORTATIONBICYCLE FACILITY IMPROVEMENTSOperating Program Number and Title:50500 - Transportation Planning and Engineering Project Phasing and Funding Sources4 Continuing, ongoing or master account project - Specification No. 90572 Bicycle Facility Improvements Master AccountInitial Project Costs by PhaseBudget to Date 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 2019-20 TotalConstruction on-going $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $500,000Total$0 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $500,000Budget to Date 2015-16 2016-17 2017-182018-19 2019-20TotalTraffic Impact Fees*General Fund $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $500,000Total$0 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $500,000Project Funding by Source* Project was funded in prior years by TIF funds however, the Los Osos Valley Road Interchange Bond Indebtedness payments are likely to absorbmost of the annual TIF received by the City for the foreseeable future.Reduced / Enhanced Project Alternatives4Reduced project is feasible or advantageous – Cost of reduced project: $10,000 annually would provide a minimal level of funding to complete some work.4Project can be phased – Number of years for phasing: Project is submitted as a phased projectProject Team Assignment Program Estimated HoursProject ManagementCIP Engineering - Design40Construction Management CIP Engineering - Construction50Project AdministrationCIP Engineering - Administration16Project ProponentTransportation Planning & Eng.103-123Attachment 6, Page 8 of 26 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN - TRANSPORTATIONBOB JONES TRAIL OCTAGON BARN CONNECTIONProject DescriptionCompleting the planning effort, environmental and permitting work, and land acquisition for the extension of the Bob Jones City-to-Sea trail between the Octagon Barn and Los Osos Valley Road will cost $395,000 for environmental, land acquisition and permitting in 2015-16. …Maintenance/Replacement 4New project …Fleet Replacement…New Fleet Request …Council Goal / Measure G Priority: FY 2015-17 Major City Goal: Multi-Modal TransportationNeed and UrgencyCurrently the County’s conceptual plan for the Bob Jones City-to-Sea Trail terminates at the Octagon Barn and the City’s plan begins at Los Osos Valley Road (LOVR).

As part of the development of the Target Center (Prefumo Creek Commons) the developer contributed $249,507 in air quality mitigation fees to the City for use in constructing the path. This money was received in 2010 and needs to be used. The City was unsuccessful in using this sum as a source for local match in the recent Statewide Active Transportation Grant process. By activating the funds to complete design and permitting it is hoped that the better state of “readiness” will help the grant compete more favorably in the upcoming next cycle.The City is hoping to use a previously acquired bridge to reduced costs for the project and the trail has been planned as part of the Bob Jones Trail planning process and has been included in the Calle Joaquin Agriculture Master Plan. The path was included in the environmental determination for the masterplan but will likely need additional environmental review as part of project development.It is anticipated that the project will compete favorably for outside grant funding however, the remaining part of developer contribution, Measure G, TIF or general fund will be needed as local match or necessary if a grant is not realized.Funding may need to be moved forward depending upon successful competition and award of grant funding.

Since that time grants have been applied for and work continues with Union Pacific Railroad to receive approval for specific segments, using a phased approach. In 2013 the bike path and fencing was extended southward along California Boulevard to Taft Street. An additional phase is planned for construction during the Spring of 2015, extending the pathway on the westerly side of California Boulevard, to the intersection of California Boulevard and Phillips Lane, as the first phase of the previously approved “Taft to Pepper” project.This request completes the connection to Pepper Street. This bridge connection over the railroad will allow cyclists traveling north, to avoid crossing California Blvd to get onto the Trail, either at Phillips Lane or farther north at Taft Street. Cyclists will be able to ride north on Pepper Street, cross the bridge to PhillipsLane, and join the Trail at California Boulevard, without crossing the street. Future phases will be pursed to extend the trail southward to connect to the existing southern portion starting at the Railroad Station.

The project is currently in the adopted Bicycle Plan as well as identified in the Railroad Safety Trail Plan. Currently pedestrians and bicyclists traveling between the Johnson Avenue residential areas and Downtown cross the railroad at two locations. First is the narrow Johnson Road undercrossing where the grades of the street can make it difficult to ride bicycles up and down the street grade. A second location is the illegal crossing at Penny Lane where the old Penny Lane bridge used to exist. This bridge was previously removed in exchange for getting the Johnson Street underpass built by the railroad. Because of traffic volumes along Johnson Avenue pedestrians often use the bridge x-ing at Johnson as well as the slopes at Penny Lane to cross the tracks and then access Johnson Avenue at the traffic Signal at Lizzie.French hospital is currently under construction of the new medical office building on their properties. As part of that project a new class I bike path will be constructed from their parking lot dawn the slope to Fairview and Breck. This access sets the stage for the final completion of a class I facility from Johnson Avenue down to Fairview, across a new Penny Lane Bridge and then into Downtown. The project study report will analyze the issues associated with pursuing completion of the Penny Lane Bridge including: permitting requirements from UPRR as well as the PUC, engineering study of the bridge design and structural needs, any easement requirements, adjacent property issues and construction cost estimates.The project is TIF eligible but may ultimately compete well for construction grant funding at the regional and state level.Readiness to Build … Study complete or … n/a … Equipment purchased or … n/a … Property owned or property agreement in place 4n/a3-136Attachment 6, Page 19 of 26 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN - TRANSPORTATIONBICYCLE/PEDESTRIAN SAFETY IMPROVEMENT – PENNY LANE BRIDGE AT UPRR…Environmental approval and permits complete or …n/a…Specifications or construction documents complete … n/a The Bicycle Plan and the Railroad Safety Plan identify the Penny Lane Bridge project.
