HomeMy WebLinkAbout05/22/2015 OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER May 22, 2015 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager AT/al Subject: General Information Notable Items It is my pleasure to congratulate Assistant Police Chief, Lyle Martin, who was recently named to the South High School Hall of Fame! He will be honored, along with the other inductees for 2015, at an event later this year. Hotels will again be full this weekend as the Jehovah’s Witness Watchtower Conventions return to Rabobank Arena beginning today. Each year, this group meets in Bakersfield for six weekends over the summer with an estimated 6,000 delegates attending each weekend event. The remaining conventions will be June 5-7, June 12- 14, July 31- August 2, August 7-9, and August 14-16. We are very excited to have the Eagles back in town! As you are aware, they will be performing at the Rabobank Arena next Tuesday, May 26th. It is sure to be a sellout, so if you have not gotten tickets, you should be prompt! The City of Bakersfield recently participated in Bike Bakersfield’s annual Bike Festival located at Beach Park. This event had hundreds of residents participating in games, eating great food, and – of course – riding bicycles! As displayed in the attached photos, the Bakersfield Police Department was in attendance to promote bicycle safety and other community relations activities; the City Manager’s Office/Public Works Department was also gathering community support for upcoming bicycle and pedestrian-related grants. City offices will be closed Monday, May 25th, in observance of Memorial Day General Information May 22, 2015 Page 2 Trash and recycling services in Bakersfield will not be interrupted during the Memorial Day holiday weekend. TRIP Advisories Traffic control for the State Route 178/Morning Drive Interchange project will continue next week, Tuesday, May 26 through Friday, May 29, so the contractor can complete drilling operations for sign structure footings in this area. Motorists should anticipate traffic control with intermittent flagging on State Route 178, which will affect both directions of travel. Delays could last up to five minutes. The work will also require the closure of the Fairfax Road eastbound on-ramp and westbound off-ramp. The ramp closures and traffic control are expected to be place between the hours of 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. each day. The contractor for the State Route 99/Hosking Avenue Interchange is ready to set falsework for the new Hosking Avenue Bridge. Falsework is a temporary structure that provides support for the bridge components during construction. The falsework will span State Route 99 and will require full freeway closures, between Panama Lane and State Route 119 (Taft Highway), while the support structure is put in place. This work will be completed during nighttime hours, between the hours of 11 p.m. and 5 a.m., beginning Sunday, May 31, 2015. The contractor will begin the process of closing the freeway around 9 p.m. The southbound closures will continue nightly until the falsework for the west half of the bridge is in place. The placement of falsework over the northbound lanes will follow in the coming weeks. Work will begin on the west side of the bridge so motorists should anticipate the closure of all southbound lanes while work is underway. During the closures, southbound traffic will exit State Route 99 at Panama Lane and continue southbound on South H Street. Traffic can re-enter the freeway at State Route 119. Budget Referral Attached is a response to Councilmember Maxwell’s request for information related to TRIP and non-TRIP local roads funding. Reports For your reference, the following reports are attached:  Streets Division work schedule for the week of May 25th; and  Letter from AT&T regarding potential programming changes.

Maxwell During the FY 2015-16 Proposed Budget Overview presentation on May 6, 2015, Councilmember Maxwell requested that staff provide information that indicates how the City is spending Gas Tax, Transportation Development Fees, Transient Occupancy Tax and Roads Program Utility Franchise Fee and Surcharge Funds on TRIP projects, and how these funds are otherwise spent. Thomas Roads Improvement Program In 2005, former Congressman William M. Thomas secured $722 million for major Kern County transportation projects in the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU). The legislation included $630 million for projects that focus on improving regional mobility, stimulating economic growth and development, and reducing travel time in the greater Bakersfield area. The federal funding came in the form of four earmarks to construct specific projects, each requiring a local funding match of either 11.47 or 20 percent. Once federal earmark dollars are exhausted, local funding is required to complete the project. Sources of funding for the TRIP projects in FY 2015-16 include: federal earmark funds, Transportation Development Funds (TDF), Roads Program Utility Franchise Fee and Surcharge Fund, Gas Tax Street Honorable Mayor and City Council TRIP and Local Roads Funding May 20, 2015 Page 2 Improvement Fund and County of Kern contribution funds. The following table outlines the funding summary by source for proposed TRIP projects in FY 2015-16: Source Amount Federal Earmarks $72,500,871 Gas Tax $9,059,578 Utility Surcharge $4,937,646 Transportation Development Funds $12,397,328 County Contribution $24,500,000 Total $123,395,423 A detailed breakdown of funding by source for each proposed TRIP project is included within the FY 2015-16 Proposed Budget Book on page 275. This page is enclosed as “Attachment #1” for reference. In addition to the capital improvement projects outlined above, $1.1 million in Transportation Development Funds are budgeted within the Administration Division of the Finance Department and TRIP Division of the Public Works Department as local match for City staff time and other operating expenses associated with administering the TRIP program. These proposed appropriations are outlined in summary on page 9 of the FY 2015-16 Proposed Budget Book, as well as on pages 65 and 150 within the respective departmental budget sections. Non-TRIP Local Road Projects and Maintenance The City continues to maximize various revenue sources to support the maintenance of local streets and the completion of local road projects. Sources for the non-TRIP road maintenance and projects in FY 2015-16 include: General Fund, Federal MAP-21 funds (unrelated to TRIP Earmark funds), Capital Outlay Funds (COF), Transportation Development Funds (TDF), and Community Development Block Grant Funds (CDBG). Honorable Mayor and City Council TRIP and Local Roads Funding May 20, 2015 Page 3 The following table outlines the funding summary by source for proposed non- TRIP road maintenance and improvement projects in FY 2015-16: Source Amount General Fund $14,996,095 Federal Map-21 Funds $4,762,046 Capital Outlay Funds* $6,146,254 Community Development Block Grant $1,771,132 Transportation Development Funds $1,402,470 Total $29,077,997 *Capital Outlay Funds are a combination of one-time General Fund monies, available Transient Occupancy Tax and other one-time discretionary funding sources which may become available from time to time. For FY 2015-16, approximately $6.9 million in Transient Occupancy Tax is proposed to be transferred to the Capital Outlay Fund for various capital projects, including the $6.1 million identified for local roads projects in the above table.
