STAFF REPORT
June 27, 2022
Agenda Item: 1
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Maribel Reyna, City Manager
By: Viviana Zamora, Transportation Manager
SUBJECT: CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELANO TO ADOPT THE CITY OF DELANO’S 2022 TRANSIT ASSET MANAGEMENT
PLAN (TAM) TO MEET PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS TO
RECEIVE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER SECTION 5307.
Recommendation
Staff recommends City Council of the City of Delano to adopt the City of Delano’s 2022 Transit Asset Management Plan (TAM) to meet the TAM rule (49 CFR part 625) requirement which is set of federal regulations that sets out minimum asset management practices for transit providers.
Discussion
On July 26, 2016, FTA published the Transit Asset Management (TAM) Final Rule. The purpose of the rule is to help achieve and maintain a state of good repair (SGR) for the nation’s public transportation assets. The regulations apply to all Transit Providers that are recipients of Federal financial assistance under 49 U.S.C. Chapter 53 and own, operate, or manage transit capital assets used in the provision of public transportation.
The Final rule groups transit providers into two categories: Tier 1 and Tier II. The City of Delano falls under the Tier II category since the Transit Department operates less than 100 vehicles. A TAM plan must be updated in its entirety at least every 4 years, and it must cover a horizon period of at least 4 years.
Budget Impact
There is no budget impact.

TRANSIT ASSET MANAGEMENT (TAM) PLAN 2022
EXCUTIVE SUMMARY|INTRODUCTION
Delano Area Rapid Transit (DART) is the public transportation program for the City of Delano.
The City of Delano, with a population of approximately 53,000 is the second largest city in Kern County. DART offers convenient service to major shopping areas, medical facilities, schools, and recreational points of interest.
DART operates a fleet of 17 vehicles as follows: (7) 33 foot Diesel Cutaways and (2) 32.5 foot Compressed Natural Gas Cutaways, (2) 23 foot Compressed Natural Gas Cutaway, (3) Class D Dodge Braun Entervans and 3 Ford Nor Cal Vans. Service is available on weekdays from 7:00 a.m. through 5:00 p.m. with limited service on Saturday. The service does not operate on Sunday or designated holidays. Timed transfers are made with intercity and commuter bus service.
Delano Area Rapid Transit (DART) operates two types of services:
• Intra-city Fixed Route: Four (4) fixed routes and (1) Saturday Looper within the City of Delano;
• Dial-A-Ride: ADA complimentary paratransit services are responsible for public transportation service that provides origin to destination service to seniors and persons with disabilities in the DART service area within the city limits of Delano and the surrounding unincorporated areas of Kern County.
DART’s Paratransit service hours mirror those of the fixed route service. Requests for service require a minimum one-day advance notice; same-day reservations are not accepted. As a recipient of federal funding, DART is required by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to prepare a Transit Asset Management (TAM) Plan to optimize the utilization of its capital assets.
Capital assets as defined by the FTA include rolling stock (revenue vehicles), equipment (nonrevenue vehicles), and facilities.
The purpose of this TAM Plan is to document the condition of the various assets and prepare for replacement based on each asset type’s useful life. The TAM Plan also provides a framework for effective decision-making with respect to capital assets. It is part of an overall mindset of continuous improvement and striving toward a high state of good repair for all capital assets.

Introduction
FY 2022-2023 is the City of Delano’s second year implementing the FY 2021-2025 CDBG Con Plan. This Action Plan outlines the steps that the City of Delano will use to address housing and community development needs in the City. The This program provides funding for a variety of projects and programs, with eligibility based on meeting the following national objectives:
Benefitting low and moderate income persons;
Eliminating slum and blight; or
Meeting a particularly urgent community need.
The City is receiving an allocation of $556,356 in CDBG funds for FY 2022-2023. The total amount of funding recommendations benefiting low- and moderate-income persons equal 100% for funds subject to the low/mod benefit calculations. Based on the limited resources available to the City, statutory restrictions, and the priority needs established in the Consolidated Plan, the proposed activities to be undertaken in FY 2022-2023 are as follows:
Projects

1 Domestic Violence Center Operations

Table 7 - Project Information
Reasons for allocation priorities and any obstacles to addressing underserved needs Efforts should be made to address the needs of those in the most vulnerable segments of the community (victims and those at risk of becoming homeless or homeless). The City of Delano recognizes the needs and plans to use up to 15 percent of its annual CDBG allocations to assist the Domestic Violence Center.
Public improvements and facilities serving its low- and moderate-income neighborhoods and residents with special needs are either aging or inadequate. As a result, the City will utilize the majority of its CDBG allocations to provide or improve infrastructure and facilities to create a decent and suitable living environment for low- and moderate-income residents and those with special needs. Moreover, the City plans to utilize other state and federal funds to provide other housing and supportive services.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities – 91.220(i) Introduction
As noted in the 2021-2025 Consolidated Plan, according to Title 42 of the United States Code, Chapter 19, homeless persons are described as persons who lack fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence or they live in a welfare hotel, emergency, and transitional housing program, or a place not ordinarily used as regular sleeping accommodations, such as cars, movie theatres, abandoned buildings, in parks, or on the street. Homelessness can be distinguished by its duration. First, there are transitionally homeless people who are unable to stay housed because of circumstances usually in combination with other factors such as job loss, unexpected expenses, or health issues. The majority of this homeless population is extremely poor. In contrast, chronically homeless people routinely live on the streets or other places not intended for habitation.
The jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including The City of Delano will continue to collaborate with agencies that provide services to the homeless and those at-risk of becoming homeless to prevent homelessness. Additionally, the City will refer individuals to other agencies such as the Kern County Homeless Collaborative, the Community Action Partnership of Kern, and the United Way of Kern County, which offer public assistance programs. Furthermore, the City is planning to use CDBG funds to assist the Domestic Violence Center in its operation. The facility will provide services that will help prevent victims of domestic violence from becoming homeless.
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
Collaboration with agencies that provide refuge to the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless will continue to be a major component of the City's efforts to prevent homelessness. The City will continue to refer people to public assistance programs offered by other agencies, including the Kern County Homeless Collaborative, Community Action Partnership of Kern, and United Way of Kern County to provide daily meals, overnight shelter beds, showers, and other basic needs services to those in need.
In addition, the City of Delano intends to use CDBG funds to support the operation of the Domestic Violence Center, which helps prevent homelessness among domestic violence victims and provides support to families by offering family overnight shelter, counseling, on-site case management, housing assessments, job training, and more. In addition, the Domestic Violence Center offers hotline services that are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to help support victims of domestic violence.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons By partnering with agencies that offer shelter to the homeless, the City will continue to address the needs for emergency shelter and transitional housing for the homeless. The needs of the homeless population include both emergency shelter and transitional housing. Emergency shelter addresses the immediate needs of those without housing, and transitional housing assists the homeless to move toward being stably housed over the long term. The City will continue to refer residents in need to Annual Action Plan 27
OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
public assistance programs offered by other agencies such as the Kern County Homeless Collaborative, Community Action Partnership of Kern, and United Way of Kern County. Moreover, the effort the City is making to assist victims of domestic violence through the Domestic Violence Center will help prevent homelessness among these victims.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again
The City will continue to work with agencies that provide shelter and other supportive services to the homeless to assist in making the transition to permanent housing and independent living. The City hopes to aid the homeless population by referring those in need to agencies such as the Kern County Homeless Collaborative, Community Action Partnership of Kern, and United Way of Kern County, that can help break the homelessness cycle by providing temporary shelter, supportive services such as counseling, and other basic needs services.
Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs.

AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing – 91.220(j)
Introduction
The provision of adequate and affordable housing is constrained by market and governmental factors.
Due to their limited resources for absorbing these costs, low- and moderate-income households are disproportionately affected. To help create safe, high-quality, affordable housing, the City of Delano implements a Housing Element that is consistent with California law, reducing costs or providing offsetting incentives. The City is dedicated to removing restrictions that hinder the production of housing and offers a one-stop streamlined process for obtaining entitlements and building permits.
Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment
In compliance with State law, the City will continue to monitor its zoning and development regulations and implement streamlined permit processing. Through the state density bonus law, as well as local incentives such as the various specific plans, the City will continue to encourage affordable housing development.

AP-85 Other Actions – 91.220(k)
Introduction
This section discusses the City of Delano's underserved needs and institutional structure for delivering housing and community development activities.
Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The City’s underserved populations include the elderly, disabled, homeless, and at-risk homeless families and individuals. The City will rely on its existing network of public and nonprofit service agencies to provide an array of supportive services for the City’s underserved groups.
Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City will continue to foster affordable housing development in the community through incentives such as density bonuses for affordable housing, mixed-use development, and lot consolidation. Additionally, fair housing as a homeless prevention strategy can assist those facing unfair evictions and foreclosure frauds, and therefore be able to remain at their homes.
Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards
The City of Delano’s Code Enforcement staff will continue to provide information on lead-based paint hazards and resources for abatement to residents. Such information is also available at public counters.
Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families Addressing high housing costs and housing insecurity are critical components to an anti-poverty strategy. The City seeks to reduce the number of people living in poverty (extremely low-income households earning less than 30 percent of the AMI) by continuing to implement its anti-poverty strategy which includes providing a number of programs, including housing assistance and economic development assistance.
The City works closely with HACK to provide for the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program and the Public Housing Program. These two programs provide housing assistance and affordable housing for lower-income families and individuals. The City also collaborates with the Kern County Continuum of Care aimed at addressing homelessness in the region.
Furthermore, the City’s anti-poverty strategy includes policies and programs that aim to improve coordination and collaboration among City departments and non-profit agencies that provide health and social services, employment training, legal assistance, and other support services for low-income persons.
The City’s economic development strategic plan also aims to reduce poverty by creating a better business environment in the City through business attraction and retention (Business Assistance Program) and workforce development.
Actions planned to develop institutional structure
The City intends to seek additional funding sources to overcome gaps in the institutional structure and service delivery system. Additionally, the City will collaborate with various local Annual Action Plan 30

entities to ensure that services are available to residents in need.
Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies
The City of Delano will continue to coordinate with public and private housing and services agencies to deliver housing and community development activities in the community. Various agencies will continue to be invited to attend public meetings related to the CDBG program.
