On February 2nd the State Water Board extended the emergency water
conservation regulation, which extends restrictions on urban water use through
October 2016. The current regulation expires at the end of February. The
Board has also directed its staff to report back on additional flexibility once
more complete water supply information is known in April. The revised
regulation responds to calls for consideration of certain factors that influence

water use in different parts of the state, including areas like Bakersfield, which
has a hotter-than-average climate and population growth. It appears that the
City’s domestic water service revised goal estimate has been reduced from
36% to 32%.
A communication received from Cal Water about the terms of drought
regulations for their customers is attached for your information.
An article written by the Los Angeles Times reports that Californians reduced
their water use by 18.3% during December. The savings, which are compared
with December 2013 water usage levels, were the smallest in seven months of
reporting and put California’s cumulative savings at 25.5%, down from 26.3% in
November. The City of Bakersfield Domestic Water usage during December
was 19.1%. For the full story, please click the following link:

Nighttime Lane Closures for Southbound State Route 99 Near Rosedale
Highway
Motorists are advised that lane closures are planned for the outside lanes on
southbound State Route 99 near Rosedale Highway this week for repaving and
re-striping work, and for the placement of temporary concrete barrier rail. The
closures are anticipated to be in place from Sunday through Thursday
between the hours of 9 p.m. and 5 a.m., each night.
The Rosedale Highway off-ramp may also need to be closed during this time
period to perform these operations. In the event of a ramp closure,
southbound State Route 99 motorists who want to access Rosedale Highway or
24th Street will need to continue southbound and exit at California Avenue then
return via northbound State Route 99 to the Rosedale Highway/24th Street exit.
In the event of rain or fog, or other unforeseen circumstances this work may be
canceled and rescheduled to a later date.
General Information

PROJECTS UNDER CONSTRUCTION
While we welcome the rain and the incredible views of snowcapped mountains, storms do impact construction
activities and project schedules. Many activities cannot be performed during rain, when the ground is wet or
when temperatures are too low. In addition, Caltrans does not allow freeway and highway lane and ramp
closures during rain or foggy conditions. Numerous construction activities have been canceled and rescheduled in
recent weeks. Please be patient as our contractors make the necessary scheduling adjustments to work around
changing weather conditions.
State Route 99/Hosking Avenue Interchange
Contractor: Granite Construction
92% complete; anticipated completion: March 2016
The new interchange is nearing completion, but construction continues throughout the interchange, including
Hosking Avenue, and is not open to pedestrian and vehicle traffic for safety reasons.
During the month of January, the contractor completed the barrier and sidewalk on the bridge. Bridge work
for February includes grinding and grooving the bridge deck, installing fence and railing, joint seals, and slope
paving at the abutments.
Elsewhere on the project, asphalt paving has been completed and the contractor is continuing work on the
curb and gutter, stamped concrete, drainage systems, and miscellaneous electrical work. Overhead sign
foundations have been placed and overhead signs will be erected during the month of February.
The contractor will also need to place permanent striping on State Route 99 and remove the temporary
concrete barrier rail before the project can open. The striping work will be performed under nighttime lane
closures once nighttime temperatures are consistently in the mid-to upper 40s.
The new interchange is expected to open in March, barring additional rain delays.

Beltway Operational Improvements
Contractor: Security Paving Company
21% complete; anticipated completion: summer 2017
This project includes various improvements along State Route 58, from State Route 99 to Cottonwood Road,
and on State Route 99, from north of Ming Avenue to Wilson Road.
Work on the retaining walls along State Route 99, between Ming Avenue and Wilson Road, continues and
motorists should anticipate lane closures for both directions of travel for several more weeks. Walls alongside
northbound State Route 99 are progressing, but cannot be completed until a nearby pumping station has been
reconstructed. Work will continue for a few more months on the retaining walls located along the southbound
side of the freeway.
Within the median area on State Route 58, between State Route 99 and H Street, the contractor has
substantially completed the concrete paving in the eastbound direction and the asphalt paving in the westbound
direction. Work continued on grading, drainage and concrete barrier within the median last month and these
items of work will also continue in February.
Clearing and grubbing operations are underway along both sides of State Route 58 in preparation of future
retaining wall and sound wall construction. A new sound wall is already underway along the north side of State
Route 58 near the junction of State Route 99 and this construction will continue through the coming month.
Rosedale Highway Widening
Contractor: Teichert Construction
68% complete; anticipated completion: fall 2016
Paving operations for the bottom lifts of asphalt have begun for the new lanes along the outside of Rosedale
Highway. The contractor plans to pave the bottom lifts between Gibson Street and Mohawk Street in February.
Paving the bottom lifts of asphalt within this section of the project is expected to take about two weeks to
complete.
Eastbound and westbound road widening activities will continue westward in February. Work items include
the installation of curb and gutters, sidewalks and driveways; storm drain modifications; traffic signal
modifications; and utility relocations, along with the placement of aggregate base and asphalt paving.
Construction work is generally performed during nighttime hours, Sunday nights through Thursday nights,
between the hours of 8 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. Crews are working in various areas from Gibson Street to Calloway
Drive and nighttime lane closures may be in effect in any lane in either direction while work is underway. At
least one lane in each direction will remain open to traffic and all lanes should be open prior to the morning
commute.
State Route 178 Widening
Contractor: Granite Construction
20% complete; anticipated completion: mid-2017
The contractor worked on drainage crossings on State Route 178 during the month of January. This work
required one-way traffic control to be in place while work was underway. Work on the drainage crossings is
expected to be completed in mid-February and two-way traffic will resume.
A temporary sewer bypass was installed at State Route 178 near Masterson Street in January and work began
on the sewer relocation. The contractor placed curb and gutter for the new State Route 184 alignment and is
also working on a box culvert extension on the north side of State Route 178 just east of Alfred Harrell Highway.
During the coming month, the contractor will continue construction of the new sewer system; complete the
drainage crossings on State Route 178; rough grade the north side of the highway for widening; complete the
box culvert extension; and fine grade Class 2 aggregate base in preparation of asphalt paving on the new State
Route 184 alignment.

Letter from Cal Water – February 3rd, 2016
Dear Mayor Hall:
On February 2, the State Water Resources Control Board (State) extended its mandatory water-use
reductions and restrictions through October 2016. Following the April 1 snowpack assessment, the State
will decide whether to further modify drought regulations.
Until the State modifies these regulations, current water budgets and banking for California Water
Service customers will continue. As part of our customer-first approach to this drought, we are mailing
information to customers about this extension over the next week and have information posted on our
web site. Customers can also get their upcoming months’ water budgets online at usage.calwater.com
and in their bill.
Customers whose water budget was adjusted through the appeal process will receive separate
correspondence regarding their budgets. If you would like information on the appeal process, please
visit www.calwater.com/appeal.
Additionally, the State will make adjustments to water-use reduction requirements in areas that meet
certain criteria, such as population growth and climate. We will notify you if any changes are made to
your reduction requirement.
We thank you for your cooperation since these regulations went into effect, and for your continued
leadership and partnership to ensure we have a reliable water supply, both during this historic drought
and for generations to come.
If the council is interested in a drought update, we will work with city staff to schedule a presentation at
an upcoming council meeting.
If you have any questions, please contact Rudy Valles, Bakersfield's District Manager, at 661-837-
7240 or rvalles@calwater.com.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Nelson K. Smith, Finance Director
DATE: February 4, 2016
SUBJECT: Council Referral #669 – Security Patrol on 24th Street and Centennial
Corridor Areas
Referral:
Councilmember Maxwell requested that staff explore the pricing and feasibility of hiring a security company to patrol nightly in the 24th Street and Centennial Corridor areas. Response:
Staff estimates the cost associated with hiring a private security company to
perform nightly patrols in the 24th Street and Centennial Corridor areas would be
in the range of $21.00 to $25.00 per hour per guard (including a patrol vehicle).
Their duties would include “observe and report” functions only, so while their
presence would likely deter some activities, any observations of criminal or
suspicious activity would be reported to the Bakersfield Police Department for
proper response.
At $25/hour, the cost of one private security guard from 5 p.m. to 5 a.m. (12
hours) would be about $300 per night, or $9,000 per month. While this sort of
cost is eligible for federal reimbursement, there was no funding for this specific
activity in the project budget estimates. So any money spent on security guards
would ultimately add to the local share of the total project cost.
It should be noted that the Bakersfield Police Department, in coordination with
the City’s Property Management team and the property acquisition specialists
(Overland, Pacific & Cutler, Inc.) have been coordinating periodic patrols and
security efforts in both the 24th Street and Centennial Corridor areas for the past
several months. These “Directed Patrols” are funded in part by special grant
funds made available to local agencies for real estate related crime prevention.
s:\city council\referrals\memo - council referral 669 - security patrol for trip properties jan 2016.docx
The Bakersfield Police Department has been very proactive regarding the
special circumstances we have in both areas regarding the properties that have been acquired by the City to date. We expect these special policing
efforts to continue in both project areas until construction begins and staff does
not recommend incurring the additional cost of private security services at this
point in time.

MEMORANDUM
February 5, 2016
TO: Alan Tandy, City Manager AT
FROM: Chris Huot, Assistant City Manager CH
SUBJECT: Mid-Year Budget Questions
Councilmembers Rivera and Maxwell requested staff responses to various questions
asked during the Mid-Year Budget Update Presentation during the January 20, 2016
City Council meeting.
FY 2015-16 TRIP Appropriations and Funding Restrictions
The FY 2015-16 Adopted Capital Improvement Budget appropriated $123.3 million to
various TRIP projects for design, right-of-way and/or construction purposes. Of the $123.3
million appropriated, $0 is entirely discretionary or unrestricted in nature. All funding sources for the TRIP program are restricted in some form.
The following is a summary of funding appropriated to TRIP projects in the FY 2015-16
Adopted Budget by source:
Source FY 2015-16 TRIP Appropriation
Federal Earmarks $72,500,871
Gas Tax $9,059,578
Utility Surcharge $4,937,646
Transportation Impact Fee $12,397,328
County Contribution $24,500,000
The following is background information on each of the sources of funding, including
restrictions on use:
Federal Earmark Funds: Funds must be expended on specific projects pursuant to
federal legislation known as Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity
Act: A Legacy for Users. These funds cannot be utilized for any General Fund purposes.
Gas Tax Funds: Gas Tax funds are required by law to be used for street and road-related
purposes. They can be bonded, as is proposed for the TRIP program, or used for road
construction through the normal City bidding process. They can also be used for
salaries of certain employees who work exclusively on eligible activities.
In years past the City spent about $1.2 million per year for salaries out of the gas tax
fund. Additional operating costs for annual street maintenance averaged about $3.3
million per year, so prior to the transition, the gas tax fund paid about $4.5 million per
year for salaries and operating costs for road maintenance. The balance of annual gas
tax revenues were historically expended for capital projects.
When the revenues to be pledged for the future TRIP debt service were assembled, the
City began to reallocate those monies from the Gas Tax Fund to the General Fund.
Prior to the transition the General Fund expended about $8.4 million for street
maintenance activities. Now that the transition is completed the General Fund
expenses have increased to $14.5 million; an increase of $6.1 million, which exceeds the
$4.5 million average spent from the gas tax fund.
Franchise Surcharge: The Utility Franchise Surcharge was enacted by the City Council,
specifically as a source to generate revenue to pay for road maintenance and the TRIP
program.
The Council approved an ordinance that created a special fund where the money is
deposited and expended for this purpose.
In the “Jack’s Case”, Santa Barbara uses it as General Fund revenue. In Bakersfield, the
revenue is dedicated to a special purpose. Should Santa Barbara lose the case,
Bakersfield will distinguish its position by arguing that our revenue is dedicated, and not
used for General Fund expenses.
Because the revenue was initially established for roads, it is legally dedicated to roads. If anything changed and it was used for any other purpose, it would weaken the
likelihood of being able to continue receiving the revenue. Therefore, no alteration in its use should be considered.
Transportation Development Fee: The most recent fee update took three years to
process, and another two years to successfully defend it in court. The money can only be used for road projects specifically identified in the plan, which increases road
capacity. These funds cannot be used for routine or regular roads maintenance, which precludes supplanting General Fund street maintenance costs.
No change in the use of those revenues can or should be considered.
County TRIP Contribution: Pursuant to City Agreement #14-115. Funds must be “solely
used for the costs associated with new expenditures for TRIP projects…” Therefore, these
funds cannot be utilized for General Fund purposes.
Validation Action
In order to borrow for the future construction of the Centennial Corridor, the City had to
go through a Validation Action. Under that, specific revenue streams are submitted to
court for a determination on whether they are suitable and appropriate for a revenue
pledge for debt service. That action was taken by the City Council on September 25,
2013.
The Validation Action was challenged by a citizen group. The City prevailed and the
revenues were validated by the Superior Court. That decision is now on appeal to the
Appellate Court. The process may well take years to complete, and could take much
longer if appealed to the Supreme Court or if the Appellate Court remands the matter
back to the lower court for more hearings and process.
Any interruption in what has been done to date can greatly delay the construction of
the Centennial Corridor, which is likely to increase its cost due to inflation in construction
costs, as well as the potential for interest costs to increase.
A two or three year interruption in the collection of revenues for the project would escalate costs not only because of construction cost inflation and a potential increase
in interest rates, but it would also lower the coverage ratio assigned by the rating agencies on the bonds since lower collections would have to take place during the
period just before the debt issuance. That would also increase the costs of this project.
The Council’s action pledged all money from the three sources to the Thomas Roads Improvement Fund. For the above stated reasons, no change is recommended to the
revenue streams.
Additionally, in January of 2008, the City Council approved the TRIP program borrowing procedure and generation of needed local matching funds. Since then, hundreds of
decisions on property acquisition, design, environmental clearance, and other decisions have been made in furtherance of the determination.
Existing State and Federal Roads Funding The City currently receives funding for street and highway projects from a variety of
different state and federal funding sources. Many of these sources require projects be identified in advance of the City receiving the funding. In most cases, there is no
discretion to amend or change the project once the funds are allocated to the City. In some cases, the City is the beneficiary of funding from state and federal sources that
improves segments of existing highways that are within the City’s jurisdiction, but not controlled or maintained by the City.
The following are common examples of State and Federal roads funding sources:
• Thomas Roads Improvement Program – Federal Earmarks: As part of the 2005
Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for
Users (SAFETEA-LU), $630 million in federal funding was appropriated for specific
projects within the greater Bakersfield area. The projects include: Bakersfield
Beltway System, Centennial Corridor, State Route 178 Improvements and
Rosedale Highway/24th Street Improvements. The federal funds cannot be used on projects other than the four listed above.
• Highway User Tax (aka State Gas Tax): The State of California imposes excise taxes on various transportation fuels. California motor vehicle fuel taxes include
the gasoline tax, diesel fuel tax, and the use fuel tax. The totality of the taxes
amounts to $.30 per gallon of gasoline. A portion of the revenue collected is
allocated directly to the City of Bakersfield annually pursuant to multiple sections
of the California Streets and Highways Code. Eligible uses generally include
environmental, design, right-of-way, construction, improvement, maintenance or
operational work related to public streets and highways. Estimates are provided
to the City in the spring of each year and are used in part to develop revenue
projections for the upcoming fiscal year. Based on these projections, the City’s
estimated allocation of Highway User Tax revenue is appropriated for eligible
uses as part of the annual budget approved by the City Council.
• Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds: Under the purview of the
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the CDBG program provides annual grants on a formula basis to the City to develop viable urban
communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment, and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for low-and moderate-income
persons. A percentage of the City’s annual allocation is routinely utilized for curb, gutter, sidewalk and asphalt improvements in eligible areas of the City. Each
spring, City staff comes before the Budget and Finance Committee to present the recommended CDBG projects for the upcoming fiscal year. Upon
recommendation of the committee, these projects are programed into the City’s budget for City Council review.
• Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) and Surface Transportation Program (STP): The City routinely receives federal funding from these programs
as part of the Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) process, which
is administered through the Kern Council of Governments (KernCOG). CMAQ
funds can be only be used for certain types of projects, including traffic signals,
signal interconnect/synchronization, shoulder widenings, and operational
improvement projects which reduce congestion. CMAQ funds cannot be used
for maintenance or capacity increasing projects. STP funds are generally used for
significant pavement rehabilitation projects. Every two years the City submits
applications for projects that meet the federal requirements for these two
programs. The application process requires a resolution of local support be
approved by the City Council, which identifies the projects which will be
included in applications to KernCOG and commits the City to fund the 11.47%
local match, should the projects be selected. On August 12th, the City Council
approved two resolutions as part of the CMAQ and STP application process for
FYs 2016-17 and 2017-18. Should the projects be selected for those years, staff will
program the federal funds and local match within the appropriate Capital
Improvement Program budget for Council review.
• State Highway Operation and Protection Program (SHOPP): Biennially, CalTrans
recommends a package of capital projects to the California Transportation
Commission. These projects are limited to capital improvements relative to
maintenance, safety, and rehabilitation of state highways and bridges which do
not add a new traffic lane to the system. Local roads projects are not an eligible
use of SHOPP funds. In general, the projects proposed using SHOPP funds must
be “shovel ready” and availability of SHOPP funds varies throughout a given
fiscal year. Upon approval of the CTC, these funds are administered by CalTrans
and are not appropriated within the City’s budget.
In addition to these common types of reoccurring funding, City staff routinely applies for
various transportation-related grants throughout a given fiscal year. In some cases, a
City Council resolution is a requirement of the grant application. If grant funding is
awarded to the City during the fiscal year, staff places an item on the City Council
agenda to appropriate the funds to the applicable department’s budget.
Capital Outlay Fund Sources of Funds
Funding for projects within the Capital Outlay Fund (COF) have historically been
derived from three primary sources:
• Transient occupancy tax (hotel tax)
• One-time General Fund revenues
• Facility replacement reserve
The ratio of TOT to one time General Fund revenues or facility replacement reserve
varies annually depending on fiscal conditions. For example, in FY 2015-16, TOT
comprises 94 percent of the total amount of funds budgeted with the COF. The
remaining source of funds was from the Facility Replacement Reserve.
No COF funds were budgeted for TRIP projects as part of the FY 2015-16
adopted budget. No federal or enterprise revenues are budgeted within this
fund. In general, the COF provide resources for projects associated with general
funded City services. Examples include rehabilitation and improvement projects
at all fire stations, materials for local street maintenance, selected park projects,
animal care center improvements and arena facility improvements. There were
some TOT funds appropriated in prior years for TRIP projects; most notably the
Hosking / 99 interchange project, along with utility work on Morning Drive, SR 178
and Rosedale Highway. There is approximately $1.4 million remaining of these funds that are currently designated for utility work on the various TRIP projects. Further Detailed Information on Capital Improvement Project Reductions
Attached is the list of capital projects provided to the City Council as part of the Mid-
Year Budget Update. Additional information on each of the projects, including the
initial year the project was funded and a description of the project, has been added.
