AGENDA REPORT
DATE:August 16, 2022
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:David Gassaway, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:Resolution 2022202 of the City Council of the City of Fairfield Approving a Loan and Third Amendment to the Purchase and Sale Agreement Between the City of Fairfield and APRR Management, LLC, and Authorizing Execution of a Promissory Note, Deed of Trust, and Assignment Agreement for Engineering/Architectural Plans for the Hotel Property
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The City previously entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with APRR Management, LLC (Developer), as amended, for the sale of property generally located at the corner of North Texas Street and Manuel Campos Drive, for the development of a hotel, including sit down restaurant, and separate fastcasual restaurant building. The Developer has requested additional time to complete engineering and architectural design for the hotel component of the development. To facilitate the additional time, the Developer also requested the City provide a loan of Eight hundred thousand dollars ($800,000).
DISCUSSION
The City and Developer entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (PSA) in February 2020. The PSA has since been amended twice, including a multiparty agreement to buy out the neighboring property (Chevron) owner that controlled a halfacre portion of the property. Through the amended PSA, the Developer paid $12,500 to the City for an extension to the closing date until October 2021, the sum of which was not applicable to the purchase price, and an additional $25,000, the sum of which is applicable to the purchase price, for an extension until October 2022 to close.
In May 2022, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved the project via Planning Commission Resolution PC202208. As a part of the final land use, the property parcels will be adjusted to provide a primary parcel for the hotel and parking lot, and a second parcel for the fastcasual restaurant pad.
The Developer notified the City in June 2022 that they intended to move to close on the PSA by end of August 2022. Their franchise agreement for the fastcasual restaurant is with Chipotle and must be constructed by summer 2023. This timing necessitated the closing earlier than required under the amended PSA. The hotel franchise is Hyatt Place, with a tap house sitdown restaurant that is open to Packet Page 377 of 1251

The Developer notified the City in June 2022 that they intended to move to close on the PSA by end ofAugust 2022. Their franchise agreement for the fastcasual restaurant is with Chipotle and must be constructed by summer 2023. This timing necessitated the closing earlier than required under the amended PSA. The hotel franchise is Hyatt Place, with a tap house sitdown restaurant that is open to the public. However, the restaurant is not within the standard design of a Hyatt Place franchise and requires Hyatt Corporate approval. This process will slow down the design and engineering of the hotel property.
The Developer requested that the City provide a loan on the hotel property while they complete the design approval process with Hyatt. While not a typical structure for a land transaction for the City, the loan provides two primary benefits that otherwise would not exist.
First, the PSA for the project does not include a right of reversion typically found in Development and Disposition Agreements (DA). This is a typical clause that provides the City protection that the intended project is developed, and if not developed, the City can reverse the sale to recoup the land. Since the PSA does not include a right of reversion, the Developer could close on the property and not construct a hotel. This would limit the City’s ability to ensure the proposed project is built.
Second, the City will earn an interest rate of five 5% per annum for the first 12 months. The Developer has the right to an additional 6 months at an interest rate of seven 7% per annum. This totals $3,333 per month in interest income for the first 12 months, and $4,667 per month for the additional 6 months, if needed. The loan is secured by a Promissory Note and Deed of Trust that will be placed in priority, or first, lien position. This ensures the City’s money is repaid first in the case of default. Additionally, to increase the likelihood that the property is developed as a hotel with a sitdown restaurant, the loan includes an Assignment Agreement for engineering/architectural plans. Upon default of the Developer, they will assign the right to the plans and specifications for the hotel to the City. The City could then resell the property with an entitled hotel/restaurant, along with plans and specifications for construction.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The loan amount is $800,000 with interest paid to the City at 5% per annum for 12 months, and 7% per annum for an additional six months, if needed. The repayment of the loan and interest will be paid into the Intergovernmental Loan Fund (551) for future use as economic development funds.
PUBLIC CONTACT/ADVISORY BODY RECOMMENDATION
N/A
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
The City Council may choose not to approve a loan for the Developer, or direct City staff to place other terms as a condition of the loan. The Developer has indicated they are financially able to close the property if necessary. However, without the loan, the City will reduce protections that the property is developed as a hotel and restaurant use.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE:August 16, 2022
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:David Gassaway, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:Resolution 2022203 of the City Council of the City of Fairfield Authorizing Amendments to the Departmental Position Control List
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
Due to recent staffing analysis, City staff is recommending to amend the Department Position Control List by by adding a two year limited term senior Information Technology (IT) analyst position in the IT Department; and adding an administrative assistant position and a management analyst position I/II in the Housing Services Department. City staff is also recommending to eliminate an office assistant I/II position and a senior management analyst position in the Housing Services Department.
DISCUSSION
City staff is recommending several changes to the Department Position Control List based on recent staffing assessments for two departments: IT, and Housing Services.
IT Department
The Community Development Department is implementing a new permit processing and tracking software, because the current TRAKIT system does not meet the permit processing needs of the City.
City staff is currently in the process of implementing the Tyler MUNIS Enterprise Resource Planning system.This system has a permit processing and tracking module, ENERGOV, which can integrate into the new ERP software seamlessly. The ENERGOV module has Business License Management functionality, which will replace the HDL software currently used in the Community Development Department. This integration will allow for more efficient processing, financial accounting and reporting of building permit and business license revenues.
ENERGOV will be able to manage and track the processing of building permits, fire inspections, event permits and more. A building permit or a business license will need approval from several different departments before it can be issued.ENERGOV can process and track the progress of permits and licenses needing approval from the Fire, Police and Public Works Departments, in addition to Planning and Building Divisions.This process is currently done manually and it is highly inefficient.The success of ENERGOV is vital to maintaining the continuity of services to the residents, developers and Packet Page 404 of 1251

For the successful implementation of ENERGOV, City staff recommends a dedicated resource from the IT Department to take the lead on the project and facilitate the integration of permit processing roles for each department.That dedicated staff person should be someone with complex IT project management and software implementation experience.According to staff’s analysis, for a skilled project manager hired from a consulting firm, the City will have to pay approximately $173 an hour, with an annual cost of $346,000. The consulting firm will have the staff resource work remotely mostly with occasional on site visits.City will also have to cover the additional travel expenses.
The City can hire a senior IT analyst with the estimated cost of $175,000 to $230,000 annually (including employee benefits), which is significantly lower than a consulting resource.The IT Department can also manage the assignments and workload of a City employee.
City staff recommends the addition of one twoyear limited duration senior IT analyst fulltime employee to the current IT Department budget for the successful implementation of ENERGOV. It is also critical for the City to hire a resource who will not only support the implementation but also the ongoing support for the project, once it is implemented.The success of this implementation is crucial because the end product of this new system will be utilized by the community, developers, and businesses who interact with the City on a daily basis.
Housing Services Department (HSD)
City staff recommends deleting the office assistant I/II position and adding an administrative assistant position.Additionally, City staff recommends deleting the senior management analyst and adding a management analyst I/II.
The HSD was established in 2020.For any department, administrative functions are crucial in ensuring efficient service delivery. However, the HSD currently does not have the level of administrative support it needs to function efficiently.Thus far, the HSD has been able to obtain administrative assistance from the Community Development Department.Recently, some of the key staff assisting HSD are retiring or have retired.Therefore, HSD needs to assume its administrative functions independent of Community Development Department.Moving forward, HSD must prepare its own payroll forms, City Council documents, personnel action submissions, employee forms, and other administrative functions.
Currently, an office assistant I /II has provided the only administrative support in the department.
However, an administrative assistant rather than an office assistant should perform the duties described above.Therefore, staff recommends deleting the office assistant I/II position and adding an administrative assistant to the HSD’s current budget.
Additionally, when HSD was first established, it needed a senior analyst to help address severe issues with administering its federal programs.Programs funded by Community Development Block Grants and the Housing Authority had operational issues that put those programs at risk.Fortunately, the current incumbent in the Senior Management Analyst role was able to address all deficiencies in administration of HSD’s federally funded programs. Since HSD has addressed and resolved issues with those programs, City staff recommends changing that position. The current incumbent in the senior management analyst position recently received a promotion, therefore there are no incumbents in that position currently.City staff believes a management analyst I/II would be more than capable of carrying out the functions necessary to keep HSD’s federally funded programs successful.The proposed change results in budget savings of $14,186 annually for HSD.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The senior IT analyst position is estimated at $175,000 to $230,000 annually and will be allocated across the departments related to the ENERGOV project. The proposed change can be accommodated in the department's fiscal year 202223 budgets through salary savings across the Packet Page 405 of 1251

However, the HSD currently does not have the level of administrative supportit needs to function efficiently.Thus far, the HSD has been able to obtain administrative assistance fromthe Community Development Department.Recently, some of the key staff assisting HSD are retiring orhave retired.Therefore, HSD needs to assume its administrative functions independent of CommunityDevelopment Department.Moving forward, HSD must prepare its own payroll forms, City Councildocuments, personnel action submissions, employee forms, and other administrative functions.Currently, an office assistant I /II has provided the only administrative support in the department.However, an administrative assistant rather than an office assistant should perform the duties describedabove.Therefore, staff recommends deleting the office assistant I/II position and adding anadministrative assistant to the HSD’s current budget.Additionally, when HSD was first established, it needed a senior analyst to help address severe issueswith administering its federal programs.Programs funded by Community Development Block Grantsand the Housing Authority had operational issues that put those programs at risk.Fortunately, thecurrent incumbent in the Senior Management Analyst role was able to address all deficiencies inadministration of HSD’s federally funded programs. Since HSD has addressed and resolved issueswith those programs, City staff recommends changing that position. The current incumbent in the seniormanagement analyst position recently received a promotion, therefore there are no incumbents in thatposition currently.City staff believes a management analyst I/II would be more than capable of carryingout the functions necessary to keep HSD’s federally funded programs successful.The proposedchange results in budget savings of $14,186 annually for HSD.FINANCIAL IMPACTThe senior IT analyst position is estimated at $175,000 to $230,000 annually and will be allocated across the departments related to the ENERGOV project. The proposed change can be accommodated in the department's fiscal year 202223 budgets through salary savings across the General Fund (101). The HSD proposed changes are a net savings of $14,186 to the Housing Authority Fund, Responsibility and Division Code (15240101).

SUBJECT:Resolution 2022204 of the City Council of the City of Fairfield Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement for the Exchange of Real Property and Joint Recording Instructions between the City of Fairfield and FairfieldSuisun Unified School District
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
City staff is recommending the City of Fairfield (City) enter into an Exchange Agreement with Fairfield Suisun Unified School District (FSUSD) to exchange 16,105 square feet of City street rightofway (R OW) along Atlantic Avenue, East Atlantic Avenue and Cement Hill Road for the fee title to approximately 27,878 square feet of the Air Base Parkway offramp, adjacent to the Fairfield High School.
DISCUSSION
FSUSD has made improvements on the campuses of Fairfield High School, assessors parcel numbers (APNs) 0168230080 and 0168214010, and the Public Safety Academy, APN 0162114010. In the process of making new improvements to each campus, the City discovered that excess City ROW is located behind the sidewalks along Cement Hill Road, Atlantic Avenue, and East Atlantic Avenue. Since these portions of ROW are unavailable to vehicular traffic and currently, there are no plans to widen these subject roadways, FSUSD has proposed that the City summarily vacate these portions and reserve an easement for public service purposes over said portions, then convey these lands to FSUSD. In exchange, FSUSD will convey to the City the underlying fee title of the Air Base Parkway offramp, which is presently a portion of the Fairfield High School campus. FSUSD and City staff agree that the values of these properties are equivalent. Under the proposed land exchange transaction, neither the City nor FSUSD is responsible for paying any funds for a purchase price. Both parties will be responsible for their share of closing costs. The FSUSD Governing Board approved this agreement and documents at their August 11, 2022, meeting.
FSUSD has previously entered into an agreement with Mountain Pacific Surveys, which has created legal descriptions of the City ROW, and certificates of compliance for each campus to be issued upon Packet Page 408 of 1251

AGENDA REPORT
DATE:August 16, 2022
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:David Gassaway, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:Resolution 2022205 of the City Council of the City of Fairfield Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Grant Deeds Transferring Certain Real Property, Easements, and Similar Instruments, Related to the Villages at Fairfield Development (Parcels C & G) RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The City acquired land from Rancho Tolenas Corp. (Rancho Tolenas) as part of the masterplanned community known as the Villages at Fairfield (VAF), Village I and Village II. Additional easements are required by Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) to energize their infrastructure and ensure future maintenance and access rights to these parcels are granted. Adoption of this resolution grants the city manager authority to execute the instruments necessary for these land and easement transactions. The city manager’s authority would only be exercised after the respective document(s) or instrument(s) is(are) reviewed and approved as to form by the city attorney.
DISCUSSION
Rancho Tolenas is the developer of VAF and has dedicated two parcels of land, commonly known as Parcels C & G, to the City. Parcel C (APN 0170010470) is for a future park and Parcel G (APN 0170 050490) is a detention basin. Rancho Tolenas will convey the adjacent parcel, Parcel B, to the FairfieldSuisun Sewer District (FSSD) upon completion of the sewer lift station facilities, for which purpose Parcel B was created. In order to provide appropriate utility facilities to service this lift station, the public service easement (PSE) and public access easement (PAE) must be reconfigured. An additional PSE is also required on the park site to energize the public streetlights. The City cannot grant a PSE on land that it owns in fee. Thus the City must convey the parcels back to the developer for them to create the required easements and then have the developer convey the parcels back to the City.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There are no additional costs for transferring land or easements or accepting easements for these transactions with Rancho Tolenas, PG&E, and any interested party.

FSSD has agreed with this approach to resolve these items. Additionally, the FairfieldSuisun Unified School District is processing their portion of the needed public service easement with their Board of Directors.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
If the City Council has any questions, this request may be delayed so that staff can provide the necessary background information.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE:August 16, 2022
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:David Gassaway, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:Resolution 2022206 of the City Council of the City of Fairfield Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Amendment No. 5 to the Design Services Agreement between the City of Fairfield and Callander Associates, Inc., for the Implementation Plan of the Central Fairfield Revitalization
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
In December 2021, the City received notification that the Linear Park Node 4A – 2030 N. Texas Project (Project) was selected to receive $5.7 million in state grant funding through the Statewide Parks Program – Proposition 68 Grant. Recently, the City has partnered with First 5 Solano Children and Families (First 5) and will receive $2 million in state grant funds to augment and offset the costs to construct a new building at the site. With funding secured and the project scope defined, the proposed resolution authorizes Amendment No. 5 to the design services agreement (Agreement) with Callander Associates, Inc. (Callander) to prepare plans and specifications for the Project.
DISCUSSION
In August 2018, City Council approved an Agreement with Callander to provide consulting services to implement an improvement plan for Node 4A of the Central Fairfield Revitalization and Linear Park Improvement Plan Project by Resolution No. 2018210. Callander’s scope of work included the preparation of bid documents for a 5,000squarefoot recreation facility for preschool and afterschool programming. The Agreement established services to be provided on a time and material basis for a nottoexceed amount of $1,279,099.53. At the time of the Agreement execution, City staff determined there was sufficient funding to cover design and construction costs for the 5,000squarefoot recreation facility and surrounding park improvements.
Between 2018 and 2022, the Agreement was amended and the scope of work modified as the Project was refined through community engagement and identified existing site constraints. These mutually agreed to ‘nofee’ increase amendments utilized unspent budget and were intended to keep the Project progressing on a fasttracked timeline to meet the grant application deadlines. The table below identifies all amendments.

The most recent change in scope with a nofee amendment was the addition of a longterm operator for the planned recreation facility. First 5 was allocated $2 million from the State of California to open a new First 5 Center in Fairfield (First 5 Grant). As the City was intending to program the recreation facility to provide services to youths in Fairfield, First 5 proposed a partnership with the City to lease the facility and offer similar services. First 5 is collaborating with the City to modify the design of the recreation facility to meet their needs, and is providing the City with the $2 million of allocated funds from the State to open a new First 5 Center.
Due to the various scope changes and nofee amendments, there is not a sufficient budget in the Agreement for Callander to complete bid documents (e.g., plans, specifications, and cost estimates) and provide construction phase services. Approving the proposed Amendment No. 5 will allow Callander to complete the construction documents and provide construction assistance to finish the project. Approving the proposed Amendment No. 5 will also deliver on the awarded Proposition 68 Grant the City received to fund the exterior portion (e.g., play areas, sports courts, exercise stations, sports fields, and walking paths) of the Project. Design work is anticipated for completion in early 2023.
Construction is anticipated to commence in spring 2023, and finish in the summer 2024, well before the June 30, 2025, deadline for the Prop 68 Grant and the July 15, 2024, deadline for the First 5 grant.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Amendment No. 5 to the Agreement will increase Callander’s fee by $883,461 bringing the Agreement total to $2,192,715.53. No Prop 68 grant funds or First 5 grant funds are being utilized for design work.
The design work is being fully funded with a combination of local funding of AB1600 Parks and Bedroom Tax. Funds for this work are budgeted in the Park Capital Fund and Division (25160199) and Project 10019.

MEMO TO: Ms. Caroline Vedder, City of Fairfield
FROM: Melissa Ruth, Associate
Callander Associates
RE: LINEAR PARK- NODE 4A CSI 5-YEAR IMP. PLAN/ Construction Documents and Construction Administration Services (Amendment #5)
Caroline, This memo is to request additional design fees for Callander Associates (CALA) and our consultant team to continue services stated in the original contract and additional scope listed in Addendum #4. The additional fee request is based on the contract for the Design Services Agreement for the Linear Park- Node 4A Community Spaces Initiative 5-Year Implementation Plan (Contract) dated August 30, 2018.
The scope has been updated to address the change in the building program with the inclusion of the First 5 Center and the award of the Prop 68 grant. Below is a brief summary of some of the additional scope changes. In addition to the scope changes, the fees reflect annual rate increases by that team that account for the extension of the project schedule. The summary includes an hours breakdown by the three major contributing consultants (CALA, BKF and Group 4 Architects).
1. Construction Documents: Additional effort in support of the City team on tracking grant money within the project deliverables.
2. First 5 Team: Additional effort beyond the original scope includes up to 4 additional meetings with the First 5 team on building finishes, fixtures and final design of the building and play yard.
3. Construction Administration: The original scope had assumptions about pre-engineered type building. Additional effort for construction administration tasks is required by our team to review the traditional construction of the building.
We request that the City authorize an increase in the project budget to complete scope tasks of Construction Documents through the Construction Administration. Our requested fee is $883,461.00. Our attached fee summary reflects our additional fee request.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE:August 16, 2022
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:David Gassaway, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:Resolution 2022207 of the City Council of the City of Fairfield Approving the Plans and Specifications and Awarding a Contract to All About Building, Inc. for the Fire Station 35 – Alterations and Fire Station 40 – Door Replacement Project RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
Facility upgrades are required at two fire stations to accommodate the current operational and staffing needs of the Fire Department. The proposed resolution approves the plans and specifications for the Fire Station 35 – Alterations and Fire Station 40 – Door Replacement (Project) and awards the contract in the amount of $261,000 to All About Building, Inc. of Antelope, California.
DISCUSSION
Alterations at Fire Station 35, located at 600 Lopes Road, are necessary to renovate a single accessible toilet room to two toilet rooms, including one accessible room, to accommodate additional staffing that currently work at Station 35. The scope of work at Fire Station 35 also includes minor alterations to an adjacent laundry room.
The door replacement at Fire Station 40, located at 2555 Hilborn Road, is necessary to increase door height clearance to accommodate a new fire apparatus which is being delivered in September 2022.
The scope of work consists of the removal and replacement of one sectional overhead door, and the relocation of several appliances and mechanical equipment to achieve the additional height clearance.
City staff contracted with Jeff Katz Architecture (JKA) to provide design services, plans, specifications, and an estimate for the recommended alterations at Fire Station 35 and door replacement at Fire Station 40. Based on the current bidding climate and in an effort to gain an economy of scale, staff decided to combine the two improvement projects to potentially receive favorable bids. The project has received the necessary permits and project approvals to start construction.
One bid was received and opened on July 12, 2022. The sole bid was submitted by All About Building, Inc. (All About Building) from Antelope, California in the amount of $261,000. The engineer’s estimate Packet Page 480 of 1251

City staff has reviewed the bid submitted by All About Building and determined it is responsive and meets all bid requirements. All About Building is appropriately licensed by the Contractors State License Board to perform the work. City staff is requesting a 20% contingency in lieu of the traditional 10%, because of the nature of the work and the potential to uncover unforeseen issues during construction.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The construction authorization for the Project will be $313,200, which includes Bid Schedule A – Fire Station 35 + Bid Schedule B – Fire Station 40 plus a 20% contingency ($169,000 Bid Schedule A + $92,000 Bid Schedule B = $261,000 total bid, + $52,200 contingency). This Project has been budgeted in the Public Buildings Capital Projects Fund and Division (25460199) under project 10386 (Fire Station 35) and project 10391 (Fire Station 40).
PUBLIC CONTACT/ADVISORY BODY RECOMMENDATION
A notice inviting bids for this project was advertised twice in the Daily Republic newspaper on June 13 and June 20, 2022. In addition, the Plans and Specifications were hosted through BPX Printing & Graphics online Planroom. The initial advertisement emailed a notice of the project and complete bid package to a total of 12 builder’s exchanges in the State of California covering the area from Redding to San Jose and Stockton to Santa Rosa.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
If the council has any questions, this request may be delayed so that staff may provide the necessary background information.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE:August 16, 2022
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:David Gassaway, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:Resolution 2022208 of the City Council of the City of Fairfield Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Second Amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding By and Among the Cities of Dixon, Fairfield, Rio Vista, Suisun City, Vacaville, Solano County Transit, and the Solano Transportation Authority for Intercity Taxi Card Program Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The Solano Transportation Authority (STA) currently administers an intercity taxi card program serving Solano County residents. The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Intercity Taxi Card (ITC) Program expired on June 30, 2022. The proposed second amendment to the MOU for the ITC program will extend the existing program services until June 30, 2024. Extending the program allows for eligible Fairfield residents to continue utilizing this taxi option for supplemental paratransit services.
DISCUSSION
On October 1, 2018, the City of Fairfield, along with all the transit providers in Solano County, entered into an MOU to provide contractbased intercity Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ADAPlus paratransit services to eligible ambulatory and nonambulatory residents, and implemented a new taxi payment card system to replace the taxi scrip previously used. The MOU was amended on June 30, 2020, to include an accounting method for reconciliation of program funds and extended the program term through June 30, 2022.
City staff requested the City of Fairfield’s contribution for fiscal year (FY) 202223 be reduced to $7,032, to better align with rider usage of the service. The proposed allocation for the second year of the agreement will be up to a maximum of $20,000 in Transportation Development Act (TDA) funding.
STA will continue to administer this program on behalf of the participating agencies and provide a 100% funding match to each agency’s contribution each fiscal year. The program guidelines for participants will remain unchanged under this amendment.

This action will not have an impact to the General Fund. The City of Fairfield will continue contributing to the ITC Program, up to a maximum of $27,032 from its TDA funding for FY 202223 and FY 202324.
Funding amount levels were reduced in April 2022, due to less rider use of the service. There is no new fiscal impact associated with the proposed action.
PUBLIC CONTACT/ADVISORY BODY RECOMMENDATION
N/A
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
The City Council may deny the request to adopt the resolution, but this would end the City of Fairfield’s participation in the ITC Program and reduce services to eligible Fairfield residents.

FROM:David Gassaway, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:Resolution 2022209 of the City Council of the City of Fairfield to Suspend Competitive Bidding and Authorize the City Manager to Purchase Automatic Passenger Counters from Urban Transportation Associates for Fairfield and Suisun Transit (FAST) Vehicles RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt resolution.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) requires Fairfield and Suisun Transit (FAST) to capture accurate passenger counts to be used for annual federal National Transit Database (NTD) service reporting. Nextbus, FAST’s prior Automatic Passenger Counter (APC) system, was providing unreliable data and is now obsolete. FAST currently leases six ACPs with Urban Transportation Associates (UTA) that use 3D visionbased sensor technology to capture accurate passenger counts and passenger miles traveled. FAST is requesting authorization to purchase the six APCs currently leased with UTA and to purchase and install 29 new APCs on the rest of the transit fleet.
DISCUSSION
In early 2021, the City leased and installed six APCs from UTA on several FAST local and commuter buses to capture accurate passenger sampling counts that were used for FAST’s Comprehensive Operational Analysis (COA). The COA will be providing guidance on how and where to best utilize limited transit funding for the next 10 years.
UTA’s APCs have proven reliable for obtaining passenger counts and meet the FTA’s NTD certification standards. Expanding APCs to the entire transit fleet will:
Provide accurate stop level and realtime passenger counts Enable the City to utilize accurate data for NTD annual reporting, service analysis, state/local reporting, and grant applications
Integrate APCs into FAST’s current automated vehicle location (AVL) system Swiftly Allow FAST to complete FTA APC system certification
It is necessary for the City to suspend competitive bidding to unify a new APC system under one vendor.
UTA’s leased APCs have proven to be very reliable and highly accurate. FAST is already receiving reliable data from the leased APCs, City staff recommends adopting the attached resolution to suspend Packet Page 492 of 1251

Urban Transportation Associates (UTA), Inc. proposes to provide FAST with an Automatic Passenger Counting (APC) system in response to FAST/UTA discussions in the late-2021 thru early-2022 period.
UTA's proposed StandAlone APC system is a mature configuration consisting of reliable APC on-vehicle hardware and analytic software that has been applied to Bus and Rail service at more than one- hundred-twenty-five (125+) transit agencies across North America, including an APC Lease application at FAST in 2021-2022. In January 2021, UTA installed Qty=6 APC systems under an APC Lease agreement with Innovative Mobility, FAST's planning consultant. Presented in UTA's proposal is a good understanding of FAST service along with the tasks associated with an APC system implementation at FAST.
Per FAST specification, Qty=26 buses will be equipped with APC systems.
UTA’s StandAlone APC configuration will eliminate the reliability issues and data anomalies associated with APC applications where APC systems are integrated with AVL systems. Recognizing the importance of APC-generated information, many transit agencies are choosing to implement APC systems in the StandAlone configuration. In UTA's StandAlone APC configuration, UTA is solely accountable to FAST for the performance of the APC system.
Presented below is a summary of UTA's APC system that will be provided in the APC implementation at FAST:
A. StandAlone APC On-Vehicle Hardware:
With UTA's APC system installed on thousands of Gillig buses in North America, FAST will receive an extremely accurate (98%-99%) and reliable (APC Data Yield 95+%) set of on-vehicle APC hardware that typically outlasts the life of the transit vehicle. UTA's APC system does not require any scheduled preventive maintenance. The design of UTA's APC system is modular which allows for easy replacement of APC components. UTA's APC system does not require any driver initialization/login. With a draw of less than 200 milliamps, the StandAlone APC configuration draws power from the vehicle power source (battery) and provides a complete set of APC data both in revenue service and outside of revenue service.
Included in UTA's APC configuration proposed for FAST is UTA’s optional Bike Rack monitoring feature which adds significant analytic value to the data acquisition capabilities of UTA's APC system, particularly in a college community where bicycles are heavily utilized.
UTA's use of best-of-breed components, including cables and connectors, also utilized in heavy manufacturing and defense applications contribute to the ruggedness of UTA's APC system and the availability of spare parts. During the APC Lease application at FAST in 2020, not a single data-day was lost due to UTA APC equipment malfunction. A 100% APC Data Yield is not uncommon with UTA's StandAlone APC configuration
The transit marketplace is increasingly implementing APC systems that operate independently from CAD/AVL systems. The importance of accurate and reliable APC data to NTD reporting Packet Page 498 of 1251Attachment 2 Page 4 of 91
Urban Transportation Associates, Inc.Copyright © 2021. All rights reserved. 4240 Airport Rd, Suite # 212, Cincinnati, Ohio 45226. Tel (513) 961 0099 Fax (513) 961 0132 Page 5 along with local planning and management of the transit system has prompted transit agencies to eliminate the issues associated an APC/AVL integration configuration.
See Section 1 - Methodology/Specific Plan for a detailed description of UTA's APC on-bus hardware system.
APC Software:
UTA's APC Software is recognized as the most comprehensive APC analytic software package available in the transit marketplace. It is common for UTA’s APC Software to be implemented at transit agencies where non-UTA APC hardware was installed by AVL system providers years previous.
UTA's APC Software not only produces more than sixty (60+) Analytic and Administrative Control reports but is easily adapted to meet FAST analytic preferences. From detailed Bus Stop-level Ridechecks to macro System Service Standards Compliance and NTD analyses, UTA's analytic software will extract all possible information from the raw APC data. UTA's APC Administrative Control software module provides the ability to consistently produce high-quality information over the long life (10-15 years) of UTA's APC system. Meeting the full range of FAST’s analytic needs represents the primary objective of UTA's APC system. UTA's APC Administrative Control features provides users with the ability to execute substantiation and audits of APC-generated analyses.
Per FAST specification, UTA will provide a UTA-hosted configuration which will allow FAST users to access the APC analytics at any time.
UTA's APC system will provide the detailed service utilization metrics to the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) within the National Transit Database (NTD) program. Federal funding allocations are based, in part, on the Unlinked Passenger Trips (UPT) and Passenger Miles Traveled (PMT) submitted by transit agencies. At a number of UTA APC sites, Section 5307 Formula Funding allocations have been increased as a result of higher and more accurate PMT values generated from UTA's APC system. FTA has approved every (100%) of the applications from UTA APC users to apply APC-generated data to NTD reporting requirements. FTA recognizes the depth with which UTA approaches APC applications and has confidence in the analytics produced from UTA's APC system. Included in UTA's proposal is the preparation of a request to FTA to obtain approval for FAST’s application of APC data to NTD reporting.
See Section1 - Methodology/Specific Plan for a detailed description of UTA's APC Software package.
Experience/Knowledge:
UTA's more than three (3) decades of experience in implementing APC systems in over one- hundred-twenty-five (125+) large and small transit organizations has provided UTA with a depth of APC experience unmatched in the North American transit marketplace. Specifically, UTA has successfully installed UTA's APC system on more than ten thousand (10,000+) buses and approximately two hundred (200) rail cars in either StandAlone or Integrated configurations.

Tel (513) 961 0099 Fax (513) 961 0132 Page 6 UTA staff applied to FAST’s APC application will bring more than one-hundred-fifty (150+) cumulative years of direct experience in implementing APC systems in transit organizations.
Academically, the UTA staff supporting FAST’s APC implementation has more than twelve (12) advanced degrees (MS+) in technical/engineering fields. UTA's combination of technical knowledge and transit experience should provide FAST with reassurance that UTA is most capable of implementing a StandAlone APC system that will meet FAST’s current and future analytic needs.
Included in UTA's Project Team is Mr. Keith Gates, recently retired as FTA's Manager of NTD.
Mr. Gates will serve as the Qualified Statistician in preparing FAST’s application to FTA to request approval to apply APC data to NTD reporting. Mr. Gates will provide assurance that FAST’s APC application is fully compliant with FTA requirements.
See Section 2 - Qualifications and Experience for more detail on UTA's APC Experience and UTA's Project Team.
Business Model:
UTA is an employee-owned firm in excellent financial condition. UTA's only business is providing APC technology to transit organizations which has resulted in a focus and energy that is not typically found in the transit marketplace. UTA takes pride in satisfying the wide range of information needs of transit professionals using UTA's APC system.
Over the past decade, UTA has consistently posted healthy profits in the 15%-25% range. UTA does not carry any long-term debt. In 1995, UTA retired long-term debt from its original start- up. UTA has an operating Line of Credit in the amount of $750,000 from Fifth Third Bank with whom UTA has had a business relationship for the past twenty-five (25) years. From a financial institution’s perspective, UTA demonstrates financial strength through consistent, long-term financial performance (profitability).
UTA is the only firm in the U.S. transit marketplace that solely specializes in providing high quality APC systems to transit agencies. UTA's singular focus on APC applications has allowed UTA to develop an APC system consisting of on-vehicle hardware and analytic software that produces APC system performance levels unmatched in the transit marketplace. The lack of long-term debt and absentee ownership along with a highly dedicated staff has allowed UTA to develop a flexibility directed at meeting the needs of transit users. UTA routinely adapts UTA's APC system to the unique characteristics of a transit agency that only become apparent after contracts are signed and the APC system implementation takes place. UTA is not burdened by internal corporate administrative/bureaucratic rules which has resulted in an organizational culture that allows UTA the freedom to take whatever actions are necessary to meet the needs of UTA's users. It is this approach that has allowed UTA to achieve technical and financial success in the transit marketplace.
UTA enjoys positive and productive relationships with all UTA sub-contractors. Each UTA supplier has been supplying goods and services to UTA for at least five (5) to ten (10) years. UTA suppliers are satisfied with the Terms and Conditions under which UTA supplier payment is generated in accordance with the Payment Schedule of each APC implementation.

UTA APC Support:
UTA supports UTA's APC system at an extremely high level that is unmatched in the transit marketplace. The majority of UTA's annual revenues are generated from UTA APC users expanding UTA's APC system which serves as a sound indicator of the level of user satisfaction.
Not only will UTA staff provide direct support of FAST’s APC system, but UTA APC users routinely share applications with each other to advance the use of APC technology. UTA's APC users are another available resource to FAST staff. See Section 3 for more information on UTA APC users.
UTA APC Performance vs Capability:
Often, in APC procurements, specifications and proposals focus on the capabilities of the APC system, e.g., capable of meeting 95%+ accuracy levels. Proportionately less focus is given to the specification and monitoring of actual APC system performance. For example, virtually all current APC sensors in the marketplace have the capability of achieving 95%-99% levels of accuracy. However, factors such as sensor misalignment, dirty lenses, vandalism, etc. produce actual performance levels less than the high levels of capability. UTA's APC Administrative Control methodologies assure the achievement of actual APC system performance levels that match APC system capabilities. In recent (2018-2022) UTA APC applications (San Antonio VIA, New Orleans, Albuquerque, Buffalo, Williamsburg, Boise, and Monterey), UTA's APC system is achieving 99%-100% levels of APC accuracy and near-100% levels of APC reliability. These levels of performance of UTA's APC system are unmatched in the transit marketplace.
It is UTA's objective to provide accurate and reliable APC-generated information that ultimately improves the quality and productivity of FAST service.

Urban Transportation Associates (UTA) headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, was founded in 1981 by two (2) individuals (including current President/CEO T.W. Kowalski) who had formerly served as research engineers with General Motors Transportation System Division. During their tenure with GM TSD from 1976 to 1981, an operational Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) system was developed that included an Automatic Passenger Counting (APC) sub-system.
The AVL/APC system was deployed in Cincinnati, Ohio as part of GM TSD's Urban Transportation Laboratory. Real time dispatcher displays, real time passenger information displays, and off-line Ridership data were routinely generated from this system. General Motors disbanded the Transportation Systems Division in 1981 and decided not to participate in the transit AVL/APC marketplace. The product rights to the APC sub system were sold to the newly formed Urban Transportation Associates, Inc.
UTA is unique in that UTA is an employee-owned firm. 100% of UTA stock is owned by active UTA employees. UTA's President/CEO, Thomas Kowalski, and Chief Technical Officer, David Bosshammer, own approximately 90% of UTA stock with the remaining 10% owned by two (2) long-time employees, David Hatzenbuhler and George Perkins. This ownership model allows UTA the freedom to place APC quality and user satisfaction above maximizing short-term project revenue. UTA has the freedom to apply high levels of energy to meeting FAST’s analytic needs without being encumbered by the demands of distant corporate management, shareholders, nor venture capitalists.
UTA’s sole business is providing automated data collection and analysis tools to transit planning and scheduling departments.
UTA is also a trusted supplier of APC system hardware to all North American bus manufacturers. UTA often provides APC equipment directly to bus manufacturers (Gillig, New Flyer, Nova Bus, MCI, ElDorado, Goshen, NABI, Proterra, BYD, and others) for installation of UTA APC equipment during the bus manufacturing process. UTA has consistently been recognized by the bus manufacturers for achieving the highest supplier ratings for on-time delivery performance and equipment quality.
UTA is dedicated to the transit marketplace. It is this presence in the transit marketplace that provides assurance that an APC system provided by UTA will operate successfully and meet FAST’s analytic needs for at least the next ten (10) years.

In UTA's three (3) decades of experience in implementing APC systems in North American transit agencies, UTA has identified six (6) essential elements that must be present in an operational APC system in order to achieve long-term high-quality performance. Weaknesses or deficiencies in any of these elements will have a direct impact on the performance of the APC system.
It is the conceptual framework presented below that UTA will apply to FAST’s APC application:
APC Hardware
1. Accurate: APC on-bus equipment (passenger counting sensors, GPS receiver, CPU) must provide accurate information. Evaluation of each of these on-bus sensors should take place at the initial implementation. Passenger counting sensor accuracy should be within +/- 5% of Manual observations with significant sample sizes.
Time and location should also be thoroughly checked. Typically, a disproportionate amount of focus is placed on APC sensors. UTA's experience in working with all available APC sensors indicates that all APC sensors have the capability of achieving 95%+ Passenger Counting Accuracies. It is identifying and resolving the unique failure modes of each APC sensor that determines the level of effectiveness.
For FTA's NTD/APC certification, APC Accuracy evaluations must be executed. UTA's experience in executing Manual/APC comparisons will be available to support FAST in the design of APC Accuracy evaluations along with applying UTA resources (staff and software) to the determination of the accuracy of FAST’s APC system.
2. Reliable: On-bus APC equipment needs to operate reliably over the life of the vehicle.
Requirements for APC system reliability are not typically present in APC procurement specifications. Strong recognition should be given to the difference between 'capability and performance'. It is common for APC sensors to perform well in an initial acceptance test but begin to malfunction shortly after the acceptance testing.
APC Software
3. Analytic: A successful APC system implementation must provide local transit staff with a comprehensive set of analytic reports, plots and APC file exports. The APC analytic software should utilize local schedules and geo-coding with minimal setup effort. The APC analytics should be easily auditable and provide substantiated transparency. All APC data and analytics should be easily accessible throughout the organization. Software tools should be adaptable for ad-hoc analytic requests which include all possible spatial and temporal levels of resolution. The design of the APC data architecture should allow for flexibility in responding to non-routine analytic tasks.
4. Administrative Control: APC systems should contain self-monitoring capability that provides the users with an accurate assessment of the performance of the APC system including specific conditions which require repair/resolution. The Administrative Control software should include the quality check of APC reference files such as schedules and geo-coding. An APC Diagnostics Packet Page 503 of 1251Attachment 2 Page 9 of 91

APC Support
5. Prompt: Any APC-related condition identified from the APC Administrative Control process should be promptly addressed in order to minimize the impact on APC data
6. Effective: The corrective actions for APC-related conditions identified from the APC Administrative Control such as: equipment malfunctions, reference file errors, data processing interruptions, etc. should be successfully corrected. Detailed APC training and documentation addressing APC problem resolution should be present.
CAT can be assured that each of these elements are given high priority by UTA in the implementation and long-term support of UTA APC applications.
UTA Financial Profile
Urban Transportation Associates (UTA), Inc. is in excellent financial condition. Over the past decade, UTA consistently posted healthy profits in the 15%-25% range. UTA paid off UTA's initial long-term debt from its original start-up in 1995. UTA does not carry any long-term debt. UTA has an operating Line of Credit in the amount of $750,000 with Fifth Third Bank with whom UTA has had a business relationship for the past sixteen (16) years. From a financial institution’s perspective, UTA demonstrates financial strength through consistent, long-term financial performance (profitability), strong cash flow, balance sheet strength/stability and excellent management skills. UTA currently has its entire $750,000 Line of Credit available which assures FAST that UTA will be able to procure all necessary materials to meet the APC implementation requirements.
UTA enjoys positive and productive relationships with all UTA sub-contractors. Every UTA supplier has been supplying goods and services to UTA for at least five (5) to ten (10) years. UTA suppliers are satisfied with the Terms and Conditions under which UTA supplier payment is generated in accordance with the Payment Schedule of each APC implementation.
CAT can be assured that UTA's financial condition is of such high standing that UTA will be able to execute the APC implementation without any financial difficulties.

1. Methodology / Specific Plan
2. UTA APC On-Bus Hardware - Overview
To produce high quality APC Data with the highest levels of accuracy and reliability in the industry, UTA’s proposed Technical Solution to FAST’s APC application is a comprehensive solution with over three (3) decades of experience successfully implementing APC systems at transit agencies, universities, shuttle operations, both bus and rail, throughout North America. Highly skilled engineers and technicians extensively tested and developed APC sensors, data acquisition devices, and communication equipment, and the most thorough APC analytic software package available to the transit marketplace.
In UTA’s proposed hardware configuration, each FAST vehicle is equipped with UTA’s flexible, proven, and reliable APC Model 31 CPU. Above each vehicle doorway, UTA will install industry-leading 3D-video passenger counting sensors, proven to produce passenger counting accuracy in excess of 98-99% in bus and rail applications. An input from each FAST vehicle door and wheelchair lift (and optionally bicycle rack deployment) will be connected to UTA’s Model 31 APC CPU Module to properly allocate passenger boardings and alighting to specific FAST stops.
The diagram below illustrates the major components of UTA’s on-bus APC system and connectivity. All APC doorway sensors (Qty=1-2 sensors per vehicle) are networked to the APC Controller by means of an Ethernet switch.

Urban Transportation Associates, Inc.Copyright © 2021. All rights reserved. 4240 Airport Rd, Suite # 212, Cincinnati, Ohio 45226. Tel (513) 961 0099 Fax (513) 961 0132 Page 12 In addition to passenger counts, the UTA Model 31APC CPU will collect wheelchair lift activity, door open/close activity, and optionally, bicycle rack and driver’s seat occupancy via digital inputs.
APC Data Records are generated upon state change of any connected digital input (door, wheelchair, bicycle rack, drivers’ seat, etc.) as well as timestamps every thirty (30) seconds. Each APC Data record is inclusive of cumulative passenger counts, record type, GPS data (time, location, heading, velocity) and a unique record number identifier. The comprehensiveness of collected data assures maximum analytic utility and supports a wide range of user analytic requirements.
2.1.1 UTA APC CPU - Model 31
UTA's Model 31 APC CPU is an industrial quality multifunction vehicle tracking/telemetry CPU manufactured by CalAmp Corp. running on an embedded 32-bit microprocessor. CalAmp is a California-based firm with headquarters in Oxnard, CA. Based on CalAmp’s LMU (Location Messaging Unit) architecture, the device provides the data storage, GPS, and wireless communication foundation of UTA’s APC system.
The small size (4.3” x 3.2” x 1.3”) of the CPU allows for multiple mounting options with the most common being the on-board electronics cabinet. The UTA APC CPU is a highly reliable data acquisition and logging device used in many Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) and mobile data acquisition applications (Police/Fire, Public Transit, School Bus fleets, Heavy-duty trucking fleets, etc.).
In UTA’s proposed APC Hardware Configuration for FAST, the UTA APC CPU is responsible for the creation of the basic APC raw data record, APC data storage, and transmission to the UTA APC Data Collection cloud-server. The on-bus APC CPU continually (every one second) queries each APC Sensor for passenger boardings and alightings, monitors digital inputs for vehicle door state (open/close), and receives/parses incoming GPS time/location data from the onboard GPS receiver. These data (counts, location, time, door events) are recorded and stored in onboard memory in the form of UTA APC Data Records.
Raw APC Data Records provide the basis for all real-time and statistical reporting functions such as NTD and a wide range of service-analysis reports. Each UTA Data Record contains the following information:
• Record Type
o Timestamp (every 30 seconds)
o Door Open event
o Door Close event
o Wheelchair Deploy event
o Wheelchair Stow event
o System Initialization event
o Diagnostic
• Current Date / Time
• Current Latitude / Longitude, Speed, Heading
• Current Passenger Count values from each door:
o (continuously incrementing)
• Bus Number

The UTA APC CPU continually attempts to establish a connection to the APC Server.
With continuous network connectivity to the APC Server, the capability exists for the APC Controller to support real-time applications of APC data. Examples of this capability may include vehicle location (including speed and heading) for display on internal FAST or passenger-facing Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) applications, real-time passenger load display by bus, real-time overcrowding reporting, and others.
UTA’s Model 31 CPU contains a high-grade, high-accuracy 50-channel GPS receiver. Due to the high reliability of the Model 31 and the exceptional GPS resolution (+/- 2 meters), UTA is frequently asked to deploy the Model 31 APC CPU to validate the accuracy of other on-vehicle systems such as voice- annunciators and AVL systems.
UTA's Model 31 APC CPU can be integrated with RS232 devices, J1708, and J1939 vehicle networks and configurable for WLAN and cellular network technologies. Its small size and low power consumption make this unit ideal for transit applications.
With more than two million units in service worldwide public service application such as taxi, emergency response vehicles, including 60,000 units in the transit and school bus markets, UTA’s Model 31 CPU has a proven history of successful performance in mobile vehicle data acquisition applications.
Accessible with a laptop and web browser (no special software required), the APC CPU will provide FAST APC Maintenance technicians with a status display of all current APC subsystem status for diagnostic purposes:

With continuous on-bus connectivity to the APC Server, the capability exists for the Model 31 APC CPU to support real-time applications of APC data. At a number of transit agencies, UTA's Model 31 APC CPU, configured with cellular data transfer, is generating accurate Time of Day and Location data that is being utilized by AVL system suppliers to generate real-time customer- facing displays. This feature of UTA's M31 APC CPU will be present with the implementation of UTA's APC system at FAST at no additional cost.
2.1.2 APC Data Transfer
UTA’s APC CPU Module (Model 31) is capable of a variety of network connectivity options for APC Data transfer. Offering flexible data transfer options is often highly beneficial to transit operators as IT infrastructure, both onboard the vehicle and fixed/backend often change or are updated within the expected lifecycle of the APC system (10-15 years+).
The UTA APC Model 31 CPU is equipped with an integrated global cellular radio (LTE Category 4) capable of operating on a wide range of cellular networks including all major US carriers (Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, etc.), and is not restricted to solely HSPA(GSM) or CDMA (Verizon). , raw APC data is transferred automatically from each bus over cellular connection to UTA’s cloud-based server via the UTA APC Model 31 CPU. APC data present on UTA’s Cloud Server is backed-up and stored for a minimum of five (5) years. The cellular data transfer allows for FAST real-time bus location, passenger load, and bicycle load displays.
Many UTA APC sites have chosen to configure the APC system to enable the onboard cellular capability for APC Data transfer, for example:
• Williamsburg Area Transit Authority (Williamsburg, VA) WATA • Cape Cod Regional Transit Authority (Cape Cod, MA) CCRTA • High Point Transit System (High Point, NC) HPTS
• Niagara Frontier Transit Authority (Buffalo, NY) NFTA Metro (rail) • University of Virginia (Charlottesville, VA) UVA

2.1.3 UTA APC Sensor Technology
UTA’s passenger counting sensor is a 3-D
vision-based sensing system manufactured
by Hella Aglaia GmbH. It is capable of being
mounted at various positions in the vehicle
doorways at various angles (does not need to
be vertical), any rotation (does not need to
be parallel to the door), with the same levels
of passenger counting accuracy (97%-99%).
The Hella overhead APC sensor offers
considerable flexibility in mounting the
sensor where wiring access is simplified, and
aesthetics are improved.
By using sophisticated machine-vision, the Hella sensor is not only able to detect and count passengers with unparalleled accuracy, but it can also distinguish categories, or classes of passengers moving through its field of view. The UTA APC sensor can detect, and separately report Adults, Children, and non-Human objects (e.g. Bicycles, mobility devices).
UTA’s APC sensor represents the current state-of-the art in passenger counting and object-detection technology.
Combining a pair of High Dynamic Range (HDR) color video cameras with sophisticated machine-vision image
processing algorithms developed by Hella GmbH, one of the world’s largest automotive suppliers, the UTA APC sensor is unmatched in accuracy and reliability in passenger counting applications. Hella has drawn upon its experience in
providing adaptive, radar and vision-based automotive
driver-assistance and safety systems (used by some of the world’s premier auto manufacturers) to produce a
passenger counting sensor that is superior in capability and performance to other APC sensor technologies
(passive/active infrared, laser, time-of-flight).
In addition to improved accuracy over other APC
technologies, the UTA APC sensor offers a variety of
additional features and benefits not available with other sensors. For example, typical active/passive and time-of- flight APC sensors have a limited field of view, and therefore a fixed limit on the width of doorway which they can accurately detect passenger movement. The UTA APC sensor, by using wide-angle video cameras, is able to monitor a much wider doorway for a given mounting height than infrared technologies. In a typical transit environment, a single sensor can easily monitor a doorway over 5ft in width, where “pencil beam” or overhead infrared technologies may require two, or even three sensors for a similar door width. Furthermore, older overhead sensor technologies required a vertical, or near-vertical mounting location above the “counting line” or the point in the doorway where a passenger count would be recorded. Often, especially in rail applications, the doorway geometry does not lend itself to easy (or aesthetically pleasing) mounting of a sensor at the door threshold.

Onboard software evaluates video images, and objects (passengers) within the detection area are identified and tracked by comparing their position against subsequent video frames. A calculated 3D image based on the distances for all pixels to the device is calculated for each frame of video. The color indicates the distance to the device (blue = far, red = near). From this 3D image, passengers and objects are detected and tracked.
3D “Heat Map”
Each UTA APC sensor will communicate with the APC Controller via UDP over Ethernet. Each sensor will be connected Ethernet cabling to an ethernet switch installed near the APC CPU Module. Each APC sensor will be polled by the APC Controller via UDP message every (1) second for passenger count updates.
Upon receipt of Passenger Count Request message, each sensor will respond independently with current (rolling) count values for both boardings and alightings as well as the Door ID# and/or IP address of each sensor for doorway identification.
Being a self-contained processing device, the UTA APC sensor also provides a much more intuitive means of setup/calibration and diagnostics than older sensing systems. The UTA APC sensor provides a Web-Based interface GUI for configurating counting parameters, communication settings, and technician diagnostics. This web interface requires no special software, simply a laptop with a web browser.
A single APC Sensor will be mounted above each vehicle doorway. Mounted inboard of each door, vertically overhead, UTA’s sensors are capable of accurately monitoring passenger movements regardless of door opening width, high or low-floor vehicle, or unusual doorway configurations.
A configurable “floor area” is established via a web GUI (by establishing a connection to each sensor via web browser) which defines the area within the overall field of view of the sensor camera where passenger movement should be identified and tracked.
Within the “floor area”, a “counting line” is established, usually at or near the door threshold, though this can vary depending on the particular doorway configuration, where a counting “decision” is made.
That is, when a passenger crosses the “counting line” when or if to consider passenger movement to be a boarding, alighting, or ignored.

Tel (513) 961 0099 Fax (513) 961 0132 Page 18 The parameters of the counting line establish what circumstances determine a “count decision”, a boarding, alighting, or ignored. The direction of travel across the counting line determines boarding/alighting, and time delays can be established to prevent false/erroneous counts, detect U- turns or double-backs.
UTA’s APC sensor achieves accurate (99%-100%) passenger counts through the following capabilities:
Differentiation of Persons
UTA's APC sensor is not affected by variations in ambient light levels, passenger size, passenger volume (bidirectional movements, parallel movements, crowding), or passenger movement speed. Additionally, the APC sensor is capable of separately reporting passenger classes: Adult, Child, non-human objects (e.g. bicycles).
Identification of Objects
UTA’s APC sensor technology is capable of distinguishing non-human objects from human passengers and either omitting non-human objects from passenger counts and/or reporting those counts separately.
Doorway/Sensor Blocking
UTA's APC sensor technology has sufficient field of view and image processing capability to be unaffected by crowding conditions or stationary objects/passengers/crew within the counting area.
Simultaneous Boarding/Alighting
UTA's APC sensors are capable of continuous identification and tracking of passenger densities up to five (5) persons per square meter. Continuous tracking allows for accurate counts in cases of bidirectional movement, double-backs and re-crossings.

2.1.4 UTA APC System Accuracy
For more than thirty (30) years and in more than one-hundred-twenty-five (125+) UTA APC applications, APC Accuracy evaluations (formal or informal) have taken place at each site. UTA's APC Accuracy has consistently been evaluated to meet or exceed the specifications of the local transit agency.
One the following page is a table of past accuracy evaluations from 1998 through 2019 illustrating UTA APC accuracy as compared with skilled manual checkers. Passenger count data collected by UTA’s APC system regularly concurs with manual counts in excess of 98% both in Boardings and Alightings.
Overall, UTA APC vs. Manual concurrence over 30,000 Boarding/Alighting observations exceeds 98%.

3.1 Route Ridership Reports
Many transit agencies organize their analytic reporting in monthly route level ridership totals. The UTA Route Ridership report allows you to select any date range desired by the user and will return the day type average ridership (weekday, Saturday, Sunday, Holiday) ridership during that time frame as well as the total ridership for each route and each day type during the chronological period specified.
The example below is from UTA’s APC system during the Fall 2021 APC Lease project. The report reflects data collected in August-December 2021. The report contains both day type averages of UPT (AVG Daily Ridership) and PMT (AVG Daily Pass-Miles) as well as monthly totals for day type UPT (Monthly Ridership) and PMT (Monthly Pass Miles). The report has a single-click export to CSV option to quickly get the report content into a manipulable Excel file and total summary statistics at the bottom for quick answers to requested questions.

3.2 Trip Reports
A basic unit of transit analysis is Trip-level summarization of raw APC data. UTA’s APC Software automatically generates a Trip Ridership record which can serve as the foundation for a number of Ridership-related analytics, including NTD. Of note, unlike other APC software products, UTA APC Software does not need to identify each of the Bus Stops on a Trip in order to generate Trip-level records.

3.3 APC Ridecheck Report
The most traditional/basic type of transit analytic is the Ridecheck, which presents observations at each Bus Stop per Trip . UTA’s APC Ridecheck Report automates the information historically provided by a Manual Ridecheck, making detailed and precise bus stop observations available to all users. The Ridecheck Report is often utilized when completing the NTD APC Certification procedure and validating APC system performance.

3.4 Bus Stop Summaries
A common APC-generated analytic report is the Bus Stop Summary in which Average Daily Bus Stop Ridership is generated for each Route and the overall transit system. The example below is generated from APC data collected between August 2021 and Jan 2022.
A unique feature of UTA’s Bus Stop Summary Report is the CUMULATIVE LOAD column. The CUMULATIVE LOAD variable presents the Number of Passengers being carried past each Bus Stop. Analytic questions such as Passengers being brought into the CBD during the AM Peak, and Passengers being carried over a bridge which will be shut down for maintenance can be addressed with CUMULATIVE LOAD.

3.5 APC Political Jurisdiction Reports
UTA’s Political Jurisdiction reports provide the Ridership, Passenger Miles, Revenue Miles and Revenue Hours for a wide range of political jurisdictions served by a transit agency (census tracts, cities, counties, commissioner districts, traffic zones, etc.). With census tracts, socio-economic variables can be incorporated into the Political Jurisdiction reports that provide information to meet Title VI reporting along with assessing Ridership changes by demographic groupings. also offer easy export JPG graphs which can be used in presentation as well as standard UTA Analytic Reporting features of immediate export of data to CSV files and Macro- to Micro- drill down analytics.
The example below is a Political Jurisdiction Report by Census Tract in which APC observations are assigned to a Census Tract. Once the Census Tract is matched, socioeconomic variables such as Median Income can be included in the report.

3.6 Service Standards Compliance Report
A key function of an APC system is to provide feedback relative to the compliance of on-street service to the local transit service standards. Often, Service Standards Compliance analyses requires considerable effort to compile. UTA’s APC Software package compiles the APC data in a form that can be directly compared to local Service Standards. An example from OTS (Honolulu) is presented below:

3.7 APC/Farebox Ridership Reporting
Historically, transit Ridership was based on information generated by the Fare Collection System. A standard feature of UTA’s APC Software package is the ability to compare APC data and Farebox data at the Bus Stop level in order to better understand the difference between APC-generated and Farebox- generated Ridership. Presented below is an example of an APC/Farebox comparative analysis in which differences between APC and Farebox Ridership are highlighted:

3.8 Segment Running Time Report with Statistical Process Control (SPC)
Critical to the creation of transit schedules that allow service to operate on-time is the generation of accurate Segment Running Times. UTA’s standard Segment Running Time tables and plots are presented below. These Segment Running Time analytics are based on feedback from Schedulers at the many transit agencies utilizing UTA’s APC system.
A unique feature of UTA’s Running Time analyses is the application of a powerful statistical tool, Statistical Process Control (SPC), to Segment Running Times. SPC applies established statistical algorithms to raw Segment Running Time data to determine when the Running Time changes. In the plot below, the Blue Line represents the Scheduled Running Time. The Red Line represents the Average Running Time per Trip. The Black Line represented the SPC-generated recommended Running Time.
This plot is intended to serve as a guide to the local Scheduler’s judgement on applying the optimal Running Time per Segment per Trip.

3.9 FTA National Transit Database (NTD) Reporting
For more than three (3) decades, UTA APC users have been meeting NTD (previously Section 15) reporting requirements using UTA APC data. Critical to UTA’s NTD Reporting are the highly developed APC Administrative Control software modules that assure high quality APC data being available for NTD Reporting. UTA’s APC Diagnostics, Data Quality Codes, Filter/Edit Algorithms, Sampling Status, Deployment Plans, Reference File Quality Control are but a few of UTA APC Administrative Control elements that result in high quality APC data for both NTD and non-NTD reporting.
NTD Reporting is a natural by-product of a UTA APC system. The UTA APC Reporting Software has ensured the 100% approval rating by easily recognizing and filtering out any potential bias of Unlinked Passenger Trips (UPT) and Passenger Miles Travelled (PMT) due to non-revenue door activity from operators/passengers or APC hardware malfunctions.
Critical to successful NTD Reporting is the calculation of Passenger Miles. UTA’s APC Software automatically calculates Passenger Miles for each bus stop by multiplying the Passenger Load by the Inter-Stop Distance. With highly refined EOL Load Balancing algorithms assuring an accurate Passenger Load at each bus stop and algorithms that convert Lat/Long change into Inter-Stop Distance, UTA’s APC Passenger Mile variable is highly accurate and auditable down to the bus stop level. Along with an accurate UTA APC Ridership variable, the Passenger Trip Length (PTL) is a standard output of UTA’s Route Ridership Report.
Included in UTA's project team for the FAST APC Reporting application is Mr. Keith Gates. For approximately ten (10) years before retirement in late-2015, Mr. Gates was FTA's NTD Program Manager. There is not a more qualified/knowledgeable individual relative to FTA's requirements of NTD reporting. Mr. Gates provide the statistical review of FAST’S Alternative Sampling Plan.
Over the past five (5) years, UTA and FTA NTD staff meet regularly to discuss the application of UTA's APC system to NTD Reporting. FTA staff noticed the large number of UTA APC users that were successfully generating NTD Reports in contrast to the number of transit agencies utilizing non-UTA APC systems that were not able to generate NTD reports.

3.10 Ridership Change Analyses
An important function of an APC system is to provide local transit management with information describing changes in Ridership. UTA’s APC Software monitors changes in Ridership and generates analytic reports at various spatial and temporal resolutions presenting the magnitude of Ridership change.
The APC Lease project at FAST did not collect data over an extended chronological period (1-2 years) that would allow for Ridership Change analytics to be generated for FAST. Presented below is a recent Ridership Change analysis executed for HART (Tampa) comparing pre- pandemic (Fall 2019) Ridership with current (Fall 2021) Ridership. The spatial level of detail is Route and temporal resolution is Time Period.

3.14 Examples of Ad-Hoc User Requested Analytics
Next Day Ridership
The Next Day Ridership Reporting is an optional feature which affords transit managers quick feedback from planning and operations about their ridership from previous day. This feedback is extremely critical not only from operations and planning point but also from political, media and marketing perspective.
However, we all know how difficult it is to provide accurate Next Day ridership early in the day to make day to day adaptions in operations and scheduling.
Challenges such as data transfer, differences between scheduled and operational service, detours, missed service, extra service, make it even more difficult to accurately estimate ridership next day.
UTA has been providing Next Day Ridership using an approach that presents individual APC trip observations, then ‘backfills’ average APC data for any trip data that may not have been collected on the single date due to the challenges listed above. Unsampled trips average ridership is derived from the sample of the same trip data from the preceding day, week, or month.
An excerpt from a Next Day Ridership Report from Delaware DelDot is below:
Special Event Ridership
HART Streetcar Gasparilla Festival Ridership – On 01/29/22, Tampa held a downtown event entitled Gasparilla Festival during which HART’s Streetcar service was heavily utilized. Each HART Streetcar is equipped with an APC system. On Monday, 01/31/22, UTA provided Gasparilla Ridership on HART’s Streetcar Service.

3.15 Global Reporting
UTA will execute the Global Reporting software module on a regular (monthly, schedule or quarter period) basis. Global Reporting generates standard UTA reports for all Routes on Weekdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. The Global Reports generate reports and plots in standard formats (.xlsx, .csv, .jpg, .kml, etc.) which can be specified by FAST. The Global Reports will be stored in a password protected FTP or AWS bucket available for instant download by FAST staff. The global reports eliminate the need for FAST staff to actively generate analytics on historical data.
See sample screenshots below:
UTA’s Global Reporting Module has been implemented at several UTA APC sites with strong positive user feedback (e.g., DTC, MDTA, DART, PSTA, SEPTA, MBTA, Savannah-CAT, WATA, COTA, SORTA, VRT, Baltimore-MTA and more).

3.16 UTA APC Administrative Control Module
A primary reason for UTA’s longevity in the transit APC marketplace is the ability of UTA’s APC system to produce high quality APC analytics over the long term. Within UTA’s APC Software package is a number of applications that review the quality and quantity of APC data and produce feedback to the local staff that utilize the APC data. UTA’s Administrative Control module is referenced in NTD/APC proposals to FTA which contributes to FTA’s 100% approval rate of NTD/APC applications at UTA APC sites.
Presented below are a number of UTA’s Administrative Control applications that have been applied to FAST APC data during the APC Lease project and will be applied in a permanent application of UTA’s APC Software package at FAST.
3.16.1 APC Diagnostics
An important part of the UTA APC Analytic Reporting Tool is the ability to review how well the hardware is functioning. Each tool has a quick 7-day diagnostic check of each vehicle to confirm if it is producing good count data or not. Maintenance staff can review the status of each individual but to confirm which bus and what part on that bus needs maintenance and all users can see how the system is performing overall. The example below is a recent result from the University of Virginia where UTA APCs have been installed for eight (8) years (2012). Bus 12432 APC sensors are still performing excellent counting 1,355 Boardings and 1,374 Alightings (Percent difference of 1.4%) over the past week.

3.16.2 Sampling Status
During the current COVID19 quarantine it was imperative that LADOT track how well their service was operating. LADOT operates routes from five (5) bus yards throughout the entire Los Angeles County area. The Sampling Status report allowed staff to monitor which routes were operating consistent to the scheduled service and which were being adjusted by operational conditions.

3.16.6 2.6 Bus Stop Identification Refinement
The Bus Stop Identification Refinement application that compares the Bus Stops identified by the APC system against the Bus Stop Calibration file provided by FAST. Periodically, there are short-term detours (accidents, street repairs, etc.) that are not incorporated into the official Bus Stop geocoding files.
However, the APC system is collecting data on Trips that are partially detoured. This UTAAPC Administrative Control tool identified the frequency with which a Bus Stop has been identified relative to the Number of Trips Operated. From this analysis, Route Exceptions can be added to UTA’s Bus Stop Identification algorithms that will increase the frequency (to virtually 100%) of identification of a given Bus Stop.
Presented below are tables that present a Before and After the application of this tool:
Identified bus stops that are not matching on each sampled trip.
Reprocessed bus stop data calibrated to refine data yield. The refined data shows the stops matching 100% on each sampled trip.

3.16.7 APC Reference File Quality Control
With appropriate review of transit schedules and geo-coding information from one schedule change to another, transit agencies implement a successful APC Reference File Quality Control procedure to provide accurate reports and analysis. UTA will apply its APC Reference File Quality Control measures at FAST to identify scheduling and/or geo-coding anomalies. Outlined below is brief description and schematic of the APC Reference File Quality Control process.
3.16.8 Installation and Training
3.16.8.1 APC Equipment Installation
Installation of UTA’s APC system is typically performed by UTA technicians with years of experience (10- 15+) and/or UTA-trained subcontractors under the supervision of a senior UTA technician. UTA’s technical/engineering staff represents over 120 cumulative person-years of implementing successful APC systems on practically every transit vehicle type in operation since the 1970’s including all vehicle types operated by CAT. UTA installation staff has unparalleled understanding of what is required to implement successful APC systems in the often difficult and harsh operating environment of public transit.
Installations of the UTA APC system are typically coordinated on a daily basis with local maintenance and operations staff to determine a specific installation location, rate, and working hours which minimize impact to the transit operation, while allowing the APC installations to progress at a mutually agreeable rate. UTA’s technicians and/or subcontract installers are accustomed to working overnights and off-hours to minimize vehicle downtime and impact to normal transit operations.
UTA technicians and installation staff are fully equipped and self-sustainable and require little, if any assistance or resources from local maintenance staff. UTA does not require maintenance-bay space, special tools, or other local resources. UTA is accustomed to completing APC installations outdoors or in locations where impact to normal maintenance operations are minimized.
3.16.8.2 APC Equipment Transfer
UTA’s APC system is designed for the rugged transit operating environment and regularly serves beyond the useful life of transit vehicles (10-15+ years). It is not uncommon for UTA APC on-bus hardware to be removed and transferred from retired vehicles to new vehicles, sometimes multiple times.
UTA is well experienced in transferring APC equipment and can perform APC Equipment transfers for UTA APC customers or support local staff in making the transfer. Typically, UTA recommends transferring the major APC components only (CPU, Sensors, etc.) and installing new APC cabling where appropriate due to the relatively low cost of APC cabling and the potential for damage to cabling during the removal process. Ultimately, it is the decision of the APC user to determine how much of the APC system to transfer.
Time to remove APC equipment from a retired vehicle is typically under one (1) hour. Time to install on a new vehicle can vary from 2-4 hours depending on vehicle type and APC options selected (Multi-Position Bicycle Rack Monitoring, for example).

3.16.8.3 Training
The following APC training sections are applicable to implementation of the APC system. During the execution of this project, FAST staff will determine the degree of APC Training and Documentation to be provided to FAST staff. Presented in this section is a description of standard APC Training and Documentation.
APC Software Training
The objective of the APC Software Training is for FAST to achieve a level of competence in understanding and operation of the APC Analytic Software package that FAST becomes totally independent of any UTA’s support while realizing the full analytic value of the APC system.
The specific durations of the APC Software Training elements presented below are subject to mutual agreement between UTA and FAST.
The APC Software Training will begin after all of the APC Analytic Software has installed/tested and is routinely generating a standard set of APC reports/plots. The components of the APC Software Training are presented below:
APC Data Processing Training
This session explains the basic steps/procedures that are required to execute both the production and backup methods of processing APC Data Batches. Data Transfer, Diagnostics, Automated Assignments, and File Creation will be explained/demonstrated. Included in the training will be the actual processing of these procedures will actual FAST data.
After this training session, FAST will have primary responsibility for executing these procedures. UTA will provide backup support by performing parallel processing at UTA’s offices in Cincinnati, Ohio. During the three-week interval between this training session and the next, FAST will provide status reports on the degree of success achieved in executing these procedures.
Reference File Maintenance
After FAST staff demonstrates satisfactory proficiency in the execution of the APC Report Generation; the next session will address the APC Reference Files that are a necessary prerequisite to satisfactory APC operation.
For the APC Reference File Maintenance training, both the software and procedures surrounding the software will be reviewed to allow the user to understand the roles of the APC Reference Files. There are two primary APC Reference Files (Master Schedule, and Stations/Timepoints). The automated procedures that have been developed for obtaining the Master Schedule File from the scheduling system and the Station/Timepoint File from FAST’s GIS database will be presented and practiced.
APC System Administration
At this point in the APC Software Training cycle, FAST staff should be executing all procedures quite well.
Again, if this is not the case, UTA will allocate time/resources to eliminate any APC Software operation related problems.
This session will present to FAST staff and management those areas of APC operation that should be closely monitored/reported to achieve a continual high level of APC performance. Many of the areas addressed in the APC System Administration training will concentrate on the transfer of information relative to the APC system to other FAST departments. Communication of APC maintenance tasks/corrective actions, APC vehicle deployment, APC data yields, Sampling priorities, Analytic Report requests, etc. are the types of subjects that will be defined in this session.

Tel (513) 961 0099 Fax (513) 961 0132 Page 51 It is the policy/practice of UTA to provide indefinite APC Software support to UTA APC users. As a result, although the contractual requirements will have been met, FAST and UTA will continually communicate any problems/issues that may arise with the APC system.
APC Hardware Maintenance Training
On site APC hardware training conducted by the same experienced UTA technicians that installed the APC equipment at FAST will be provided in APC hardware-training sessions. As with the APC Software Training, the objective of the APC Hardware Training is to make the FAST completely self-sufficient in the long-term support of the APC system.
The APC Hardware Training can be scheduled over multiple sessions. Quite simply, UTA’s APC system does not fail very often. As a result, the APC training given to local transit maintenance staff does not get practiced very much and the APC maintenance skills obtained in the initial APC training tend to atrophy from lack of application.
An initial introduction/explanation of the APC system is appropriate along with detailed exposure to the APC maintenance procedures. Presented below are the topics to be covered:
APC Maintenance Training
o Review On Board Wiring Runs and Terminations
o Review APC Equipment Repair Manual
o Input Power Placement
o Counting Sensor Placement and Adjustment
o GPS Subsystem (Review of UTA APC Diagnostics)
o WLAN/Cellular Data Transfer
o Discrete Inputs (doors)
o Use of Diagnostic Laptop Computer
o Common Problems/Repairs
o Setup of APC Bench Test Area

3.16.8.4 Project Schedule
Presented below is a preliminary project schedule for the installation and implementation of the UTA APC System at FAST.
The project schedule can be altered to accommodate FAST’s local preferences. UTA will commence hardware installation within two (2) weeks of Notice of Award. The initial installation of APC systems will be complete within one (1) week. UTA’s APC Software and Reporting systems will be installed independently of the on-bus hardware and be fully operational within two (2) weeks after the installations begin.
Notice of Award
Once the Notice of Award is issued, UTA will start assembling parts and scheduling installations to commence in two (2) weeks.
Software Setup
Upon Notice of Award, UTA will start to configure the APC data processing and reporting software. UTA will communicate with FAST Planning and Scheduling staff relative to the schedule and geocoding exports.
Fleet Hardware Installations
Hardware installations will begin two (2) weeks after the Notice of Award. UTA will work with operations and maintenance staff to arrange appropriate locations for staging materials and performing installations.

After the initial installation of the APC on-bus hardware, data will be available to configure/test UTA’s APC software with current CATAPC data.
NTD Certification – Data Collection
Given the aggressive timeline for NTD Certification, it is necessary to execute Manual checks associated with the baseline sampling and benchmarking plan as soon as possible. It is a good practice for agency staff to perform the Manual data collection to be used for the NTD/APC certification process.
UTA will perform some initial Manual checks. This is a commonly performed aspect of UTA’s post- installation quality control process.
NTD Certification - Manual vs APC Analysis
After manual data is collected, it must be compared to the APC data to assess the accuracy of the system. UTA and FAST will execute the Manual/APC comparison in parallel. FAST will inform UTA of the Dates and Bus Numbers on which Manual Ridechecks were performed. UTA will provide processed and raw APC data to FAST for comparison. Upon FAST’s receipt of the APC data, FAST will provide copies of the Manual data for review. FAST and UTA will present summaries of the Manual/APC comparisons for review/rationalization.
The completed Manual/APC comparison will be included in The FAST’s NTD/APC application to FTA.
NTD Certification - Finalize Benchmarking Plan Document The benchmarking plan documents must be written. This includes, among other things, information about the APC system and the results of the APC v Manual testing. A separate document will need to be written for each mode that will be certified. These documents can start being written before the end of the APC v Manual comparison. Once the documents are finalized, they can be submitted. It’s possible that there will be a delay of several weeks after submission before approval is received due to the fact that FTA and their contractors (BCG) will likely be busy with many of similar certification proposals being submitted as part of the 2019 re-certification cycle. An unofficial part of the schedule will be a celebration once the approval becomes official.
Initial APC User Software/Report Training
Given the priority of NTD certification, it is probably best to focus most of the initial attention on APC analytics on the certification process. However, once the benchmarking plan is submitted, the focus of the project can turn to familiarization and training with the reporting software. Typically, this process takes the form of 1-2 full days of UTA staff meeting with FAST staff at FAST offices to review the many different analytic options present in the UTA reporting software. The exact schedule of this training can be determined by FAST preferences but could take place as soon as the efforts associated with the NTD certification process, and all vehicle installations are complete.
Initial Maintenance Training
UTA can start familiarizing and training FAST maintenance staff with the APC system installed on the fleet. Depending on FAST preference and UTA staff availability this can potentially take place during the installation phase(s). However, it’s possible that given the higher priorities of completing hardware installations and finishing the NTD certification efforts, UTA staff may not be available for maintenance training until these two more important tasks are finalized. So, the tentative schedule would place the APC maintenance training as soon as roughly the same time as the initial software training.

At the start of this section are summaries of UTA APC applications at transit agencies with similarity to the FAST bus APC application (StandAlone APC configuration, Overhead APC sensors).
Williamsburg, VA (WATA) - UTA StandAlone APC System w/Overhead APC Sensors Ben Goodill (757) 253-6862
In late-2018, WATA executed a competitive APC procurement for a StandAlone APC system similar to FAST. WATA has successfully implemented UTA's APC system with a similar APC configuration as proposed application for FAST. WATA has received approval from FTA to apply APC data to NTD reporting.
WATA is currently serving as a beta-test site for UTA's Real-Time Passenger Load capability in which all APC-equipped buses are appearing on a real-time map with actual Passenger Load being presented.
Also included in WATA's Real-Time Passenger Load display are the Available Bicycle Rack Slots on each bus. WATA has included UTA's Multi-Slot Bicycle Rack monitoring in the APC configuration.
WATA has chosen to implement UTA's StandAlone APC configuration independent of WATA's AVL system in order to obtain the highest possible levels of performance.
The WATA facility also houses buses for Colonial Williamsburg’s transit services and WATA manages the NTD reporting for Colonial Williamsburg. The overall success and specifically, the certification of the APC system for NTD reporting by FTA, has motivated Colonial Williamsburg to add the UTA StandAlone APC system to their fleet starting in 2021.
Bloomington, Indiana (BPTC) - UTA StandAlone APC System w/Overhead APC Sensors Lew May (812) 332-5688
In late-2020, BPTC executed a competitive APC procurement for a StandAlone APC system which was awarded to UTA. Similar to CAT, UTA's APC system was previously installed on a sub-fleet of BPTC buses to support a Comprehensive Operational Analysis (COA) executed by a planning consultant. Also similar to FAST is BPTC's operation in coordination with a university transit service (Indiana University) which has been a long-time UTA APC user.
Similar to numerous other transit agencies, BPTC chose to implement UTA's StandAlone APC configuration in order to avoid reliability issues present with the existing AVL system.
APC installations have taken place within four (4) weeks from Notice To Proceed with APC software installation occurring during the same period. Training will occur in Mar-April 2021.

MST chose to implement a StandAlone APC system that operates in parallel with an existing AVL system.
City of Tallahassee, FL (StarMetro) - UTA StandAlone APC System w/Vertical APC Sensors Andrea Rosser (850) 891-5196
In early 2020, The City of Tallahassee, FL. Executed a competitive procurement for automatic passenger counters for StarMetro’s fleet of fifty-seven (57) Gillig buses and four (4) cutaway vehicles operating fixed, deviated, and complementary on-demand ADA service. UTA also provided a web-based stand- alone reporting software package and the required NTD reporting necessary for application to the FTA.
Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) - UTA Integrated APC System w/Horizontal + Overhead APC Sensors
Jing Xu (214) 749-2847
In 2018, DART executed the largest competitive APC procurement (640 buses) that has taken place in the U.S. since 2000. UTA was awarded the APC contract over bids submitted by Dilax and Clever Devices. UTA's APC system was integrated with the Trapeze TransitMaster AVL system. UTA's horizontal APC sensors will be deployed on approximately 520 DART buses with UTA's overhead APC sensors installed on approximately 120 DART ARBOC buses. In 2013, DART awarded UTA a contract for APC Software after receiving bids from RSM and Trapeze.
Central Florida Regional Transportation Authority (LYNX) - UTA StandAlone APC Configuration Walter Gant (407) 254-6078
LYNX executed an APC procurement in early-2020 which provides a most recent data point from the APC marketplace. After multiple unsuccessful APC applications from AVL suppliers, LYNX released an APC RFP in late-2019 to provide StandAlone APC systems on Qty=273 buses. UTA was awarded the contract after receiving significantly higher scores from LYNX's Source Evaluation Committee. The other bidders were InfoDev and Dilax.

Arlington, VA (ART) - UTA Horizontal APC Sensors Integrated with Clever Devices AVL system Tom Scherer - (703) 228-3281
ART has been a user of UTA's APC system for approx 15 years. During this period, APC data has been incorporated into a wide range of ART analytic methodologies. UTA has provided support to ART for a variety of non-routine analyses requested by internal and external sources. ART continues to specify UTA's APC system on new bus purchases.
University of Virginia - UTA StandAlone APC System
Allison Day (434) 982-6305
In 2015 the University of Virginia contracted UTA to install StandAlone APCs on five (5) Gillig 2-door buses. UVA purchased the APCs to relieve the operators from having to count passengers in order to get ridership statistics and provide a mechanism for service planning. Over the past six (6) years UVA has almost annually expanded the APC equipped buses in their fleet by retrofitting existing buses and having new buses be equipped with APCs. Currently UVA has 35 buses in their fleet equipped with an APC. UVA Transit staff utilizes a UTA hosted configuration for analytics and staff simply logs onto a UTA provided website to download ridership statistics. The APC data and analytics require no UVA IT resources.
Chatham Area Transit (CAT) - UTA StandAlone APC System w/Horizontal + Overhead APC Sensors Steve Boatright (912) 661-7539
In 2018, CAT of Savannah, GA executed a competitive procurement for a fleet-wide APC system. CAT received three (3) proposals (UTA, Clever Devices, and GoFleet) and awarded the contract to UTA. CAT has sixty-eight (68) APC-equipped buses in UTA's StandAlone APC configuration. Also included in the APC application are UTA's Multi-Slot Bike Racks and Driver Seat Monitoring capabilities.

7. Potential Risks and Alternative Suggestions
Given UTA's 30+ years of experience and 125+ APC applications, UTA has been able to evaluate the factors that impact the effectiveness/success of APC applications. Listed below are the most common factors which impact APC effectiveness at a given transit agency:
A. Integration w/AVL Systems - UTA has integrated APC systems with AVL system provided by more than twenty (20) different AVL suppliers. In every AVL/APC Integrated application, UTA has discovered data anomalies and inconsistencies that must be identified and filtered in order to obtain high quality analytics. Typically, the AVL suppliers do not realize that technical issues with the AVL system impact the APC data which creates a long delay in the AVL supplier executing the corrective actions.
B. Local WiFi Data Transfer - Most transit agencies have WiFi capability in the bus storage areas which, theoretically, allows for the transfer of APC data from buses to an APC server (local or cloud). However, it is common for local WiFi to have inconsistent operational reliability and incomplete coverage of the transit storage area.
C. Locally Hosted APC Software - Local IT policies and practices have been found to impact the operation of the APC Software by limiting data storage, creating unnecessary firewalls, limiting remote access, and executing inconsistent backup procedures.
UTA's APC system can be, and has been, implemented in each of the scenarios presented above.
However, the StandAlone APC system proposed for FAST with cellular data transfer and APC software hosted on the cloud will provide the highest levels of APC system performance over the long-term. It is this UTA APC configuration that generated near-100% APC Data Yield during UTA's APC Lease project at FAST in 2021-2022.
8. Additional Information
UTA APC System Warranty
UTA warrants the APC System against any failures caused by UTA-provided materials and/or labor for a one (1) year period. Any APC system failures attributable to UTA-provided labor and/or materials will be repaired/replaced by UTA within thirty (30) days of discovery at no cost to FAST. Not included in UTA’s warranty coverage are APC failures caused by vandalism, negligence, or acts of nature.

11.1 Introduction
11.1.1 APC Support Objectives
With the implementation of UTA's APC system on FAST buses in 2022, FAST will have Qty=26 buses equipped with UTA's StandAlone APC system, with the possibility of more throughout the life of the APC contract. This proposal will address both the support of the on-bus APC equipment along with support of the APC analytic software configured for FAST’s application.
CAT has specified UTA's StandAlone on-bus APC system which includes a variety of sensors (passenger count, wheelchair lift, bike rack, driver seat), CPU w/embedded GPS, SmartSensor Interface Module, antenna, and all associated cabling. The APC system to be installed on FAST buses is of a mature/stable design that has been installed on thousands of buses in the U.S.
For the APC Software, a Software as a Service (SaaS) configuration in which UTA assumes full responsibility for the processing of APC data and generation of analytic reports adapted to FAST’s analytic needs will be applied. APC-generated analytics will provide information to FAST Planning/Scheduling staff, senior management, and FAST’s National Transit Database (NTD) reporting requirements. UTA has been supporting APC applications in a similar manner for many years. UTA is quite experienced in providing APC support in a SaaS configuration as requested by FAST.
This proposal defines the tasks included in an APC Support program and the provision of labor and materials to maintain FAST’s APC system at a level of performance that provides APC-generated information in support of FAST’s analytic needs.
It is the objective of UTA to provide FAST with APC-generated information that will directly improve the productivity and quality of FAST service for the tenure of the APC Support agreement.
11.1.2 Background
UTA, located in Cincinnati, Ohio, is a firm specializing in the production and application of Automatic Passenger Counting (APC) systems. Over the past three (3) decades, more than 125 U.S. transit agencies have received accurate and reliable information generated from UTA's APC system. A subset (approx 40%) have chosen to contract UTA to provide support of the APC system.
Packet Page 577 of 1251Attachment 2 Page 83 of 91
Urban Transportation Associates, Inc.Copyright © 2021. All rights reserved. 4240 Airport Rd, Suite # 212, Cincinnati, Ohio 45226. Tel (513) 961 0099 Fax (513) 961 0132 Page 84
11.2 APC On-Bus Hardware Maintenance and Support
11.3 APC Performance Monitoring
In the SaaS configuration, all APC data will be transferred to a UTA cloud-based server that will be accessible to both UTA and FAST staff. The transfer of APC data will be through real-time cellular or, optionally, real-time mobile router or end-of-day WiFi.
On the UTA cloud-based server, each morning at 03:00 AM EST, UTA’s APC Diagnostic software applies a number of diagnostic algorithms to the raw APC data in order to obtain a reliable assessment of APC data quality and quantity. The APC-equipped buses with maintenance needs are identified. UTA will assume primary responsibility for the review of the APC Diagnostics and the subsequent identification of buses that require APC maintenance. APC Diagnostic information will be posted to a location that is accessible to FAST staff.
11.4 APC Data Yield
UTA will provide the labor and materials that will allow FAST to maintain a satisfactory APC Data Yield for the term of the contract. APC Data Yield is defined as the ratio of Valid Data Days and the Total Chronological Days in a given period. The term ‘satisfactory APC Data Yield’ will be defined as providing a statistically valid sampling of all Weekday FAST revenue service each schedule period. The APC system will be maintained at an optimal level in order to produce an average number of samples for each Weekday Revenue Trip in the range of 5-15.
An example relative to APC Data Yield: A fleet of 100 APC-equipped buses for a 30 day period will generate a maximum of 3000 data-days. If 3 buses have malfunctioning APC Passenger Counting Sensors, 2 buses have malfunctioning GPS receivers, and 2 buses have malfunctioning APC Data Transfer subsystems, the number of Valid Data Days would be 2790 (100total buses-(3+2+2 malfunctioning buses))x(30days). The overall Data Yield for this period is 93%.
For CAT, the target APC Data Yield will be 90%-95% which will exceed the statistical confidence interval requirements associated with FTA's National Transit Database (NTD) reporting.
11.5 APC Maintenance Response Time
To achieve this level of performance, UTA will provide an average 1-2 week response time to address APC system malfunctions. If the overall APC Data Yield approaches an unsatisfactory level for a given chronological period (week, month), UTA will dispatch the appropriate number of APC technicians to address the APC maintenance needs and return the APC Data Yield above the target APC Data Yield threshold.

UTA's regional APC Technician, Michael Kowalski located in Arcata, CA will have primary responsibility for maintaining FAST’s APC system.
In order to minimize impacts on FAST’s revenue service operations, APC maintenance activities will be performed primarily on evenings and weekends.
Typically, UTA will provide a minimum of 24-hour notice prior to the beginning of the maintenance activities. However, in order to avoid a delay in the execution of APC maintenance, there may be occasions where a 6-8 hour notice will be provided by UTA to the designated FAST divisional maintenance staff prior to performing APC maintenance activities. The notification will be provided by e-mail.
11.6 FAST Requests and Inquires
During the Maintenance and Support period, the need may arise for FAST to reach out to UTA regarding general inquiries or any issues that may impact APC system operability. The following outlines the contact information and response policy for CAT-initiated requests and inquiries.

11.7 Chronic APC Failures/CPU Replacement
In the event that a particular APC component exhibits a consistent failure rate, UTA will provide a complete replacement for the subject component.
11.8 Limitations – APC Maintenance Agreement
This APC Maintenance agreement covers all APC malfunctions that result from normal transit operations consistent with the frequency and type of APC malfunctions that have been observed at transit agencies. APC failures of high frequency and magnitude attributable to unusual vandalism, gross negligence, and/or acts of nature will not be included in the APC Maintenance Agreement. UTA and FAST will negotiate the remedy of such unusual conditions.
The APC On-Bus Hardware Maintenance and Support Plan as laid out in this document is separate from UTA’s Warranty on Parts and Labor, as listed in this Proposal, and laid out herein*. If UTA labor and materials are applied to an APC failure attributable to deficiencies in UTA-supplied labor and materials within the one (1) year Warranty Period, UTA will not include such costs in APC Support invoices. APC failures caused by normal revenue service operation after the one (1) year warranty period will be included in UTA's APC Support invoices.
UTA warrants that on-bus APC equipment shall be new, merchantable, free from defects in workmanship, and fit and sufficient for the purposes intended by UTA and FAST and will perform in accordance with the industry standards. Excluded from warranty coverage is the repair or replacement of APC equipment damaged by neglect, accident, improper usage, modification by anyone other than UTA, or acts of nature. In the event of an APC failure included in UTA's APC Warranty period, UTA will repair or replace the defective APC component without cost to FAST. Warranty repairs will be executed by UTA technicians within a two (2) week period from the discovery date of APC malfunction.
Given UTA's agreement to carry-over APC Maintenance and Labor costs from year-to-year, UTA will apply UTA labor and materials to failures caused by vandalism, negligence, and/or acts of nature within the balance of costs for APC Maintenance Labor and Materials that may have accumulated over a number of years. For example, if APC Maintenance and Labor costs are less than budgeted in Years 2-3, and in Year 4 there are three (3) buses with vandalized APC sensors, the balance of accumulated APC Maintenance and Labor can be applied to the repair of the three (3) vandalized APC sensors.
11.9 APC Maintenance Guarantee
Repairs that are not associated with or attributable to vandalism but are associated with component failure shall be guaranteed for at least ninety (90) days after the last UTA APC maintenance corrective action. In the event the repaired component fails again within 90 days, UTA agrees to repair or replace the component at no further expense to FAST. FAST recognizes that there may be instances of unusual or extreme circumstances where multiple conditions or factors are contributing to the component Commented [JY1]: Please spell out Warranty policy and
include the following:
1.) What is warranted – e.g. “UTA warrants that Hardware shall be new, merchantable, free from defects in
workmanship, and fit and sufficient for the purposes
intended by UTA and CAT, and will strictly conform to and perform in accordance with the Scope of Work…”
2.) What is excluded – e.g. repair or replacement of
hardware damaged by neglect, accident, improper usage, or modification by anyone other than UTA.
3.) Remedies – either repair or a full and complete
replacement, and a process for returning/exchanging
defective hardware (does UTA have to come and remove it? Can/should it be shipped? Who pays for shipping? How long is the turnaround?)

UTA will communicate the results of the Reference File Quality review to FAST for resolution.
11.11.1.4 Bus Stop and Time Point Export/APC Conversion
Similar to the GTFS export, UTA will support and assist FAST staff in the setup of Bus Stop and Time Point reference files for each schedule period.
For each schedule period, UTA will execute the conversion of FAST's Bus Stop and Time Point export into the specified APC format. UTA will also execute the Data Quality checks that will identify any anomalies/errors/omissions in the Bus Stop and Time Point exports. UTA will communicate the results of the Data Quality review to FAST for resolution.
11.11.1.5 Post Schedule Change APC Data Quality Review
After one (1) week of APC data collection in a new schedule period, UTA will assist and support FAST staff in executing a number of APC Administrative Control analyses that will identify any inconsistencies/anomalies in the APC data that require resolution. Examples of analyses include:
Sampling Status - Check for missing Routes
Trip SOL/EOL Matching - Check for SOL/EOL anomalies
Segment Contiguity - Check for missing Time Points
Not Identified Bus Stops – Check for missing Bus Stop geo-coding
From this APC Data Quality Review, UTA and FAST staff will execute any necessary revisions to the schedule and geo-coding files, re-execute the file conversion, and reprocess the set of APC data collected since the start of the schedule period.
11.11.1.6 Monthly and Schedule Period APC Data Processing Setup

AGENDA REPORT
DATE:August 16, 2022
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:David Gassaway, Interim City Manager
SUBJECT:Resolutions 2022210 to 2022213 of the City Council of the City of Fairfield Authorizing a Loan and Budget Transfer from the Intergovernmental Loan Fund to Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 1 – Gateway, District No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, District No. 6 – Peppertree, and District No. 12 – Downtown Business District for Landscape Maintenance Services Through the Fiscal Year 2022 2023 and Authorizing an Update to the Fiscal Year 20222023 Budget RECOMMENDED ACTION
Receive report, open discussion, adopt resolutions, or provide direction to staff.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The fiscal year (FY) 20222023 anticipated assessment revenue for Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Districts (LLMDs) No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, No. 6 – Peppertree, and No. 12 – Downtown Business District are insufficient to continue providing landscape maintenance services at the current levels. Approval of these resolutions will authorize four loans and budget transfers totaling $261,000 from the Intergovernmental Fund and a General Fund contribution of $4,000 to the LLMDs for landscape maintenance services through FY 20222023.
DISCUSSION
In August 2021, the City hired NBS to conduct an initial review of the City’s 16 LLMDs to determine the operational and financial viability of each district. The initial phase of the project included a broad review of the districts’ engineer’s reports, documentation of annexations, fund balances and budgets, an audit of boundaries, and a final report of findings which would be the foundational groundwork for subsequent phases of the project.
During FY 20212022, City staff and NBS identified nine districts, LLMDs No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, No. 5 – Smith Ranch, No. 6 – Peppertree, No. 7 – Rolling Hills, No. 8 – Kolob, No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, LLMD No. 12 – Downtown Business District, and No. 13 – North Cordelia, that were projected to have a fund balance and budget deficit in the next 13 fiscal years if services were provided at the same levels as previous fiscal years. These districts require a community engagement and Proposition 218 balloting process in FY 20222023 to determine the property owners’ desire to increase assessments beginning in FY 20232024.

These districts require a community engagement and Proposition 218 balloting process in FY 20222023 to determine the property owners’ desire to increase assessments beginning in FY 20232024.
Two of the nine districts, LLMDs No. 5 – Smith Ranch and No. 8 – Kolob, would have sufficient assessment revenues to maintain services at the previous levels during FY 20222023, while the remaining seven districts would require significant reductions.
On July 7, 2021, City staff notified City Council of the anticipated deficit for LLMDs No. 7 – Rolling Hills, No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, and No. 13 – North Cordelia. After a community engagement process that included a virtual town hall meeting and online survey, council issued General Fund loans of $410,000, $175,000, and $151,000 to each district, respectively, on May 3, 2022, to allow the districts to provide enhanced levels of service. The loans were issued at 0% interest with a 5year repayment term.
On April 19, 2022, City staff informed council that LLMDs No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, and No. 6 – Peppertree were projected to have fund balance deficits of approximately $170,000, $40,000, and $40,000, respectively, in FY 20222023 if services were provided at the same level as previous fiscal years. Ciry staff returned to council on July 5, 2022, to report a projected deficit of approximately $40,000 in LLMD No. 12 – Downtown Business District for the same reason. Council directed staff to offer General Fund Loans at 0% interest and a 5year repayment term to each of the districts. The loans would supplement each district’s assessment revenue and eliminate the need for a budget reduction.
The shortfall in each district was recalculated with updated projections after the April 19, 2022, meeting.
The new anticipated shortfall in each district is $165,000 for LLMD No. 1 – Gateway, $32,000 for LLMD No. 3 – Waterman, and $28,000 for LLMD No. 6 – Peppertree. There was no change to LLMD No. 12 – Downtown Business District.
In addition to the loans, the shortfall in each district would be proportionately funded by the district and the General Fund. The General Fund would contribute a sum equivalent to the proportion of the regular General Fund contribution budgeted in FY 20212022.
The General Fund and district shares are as follows:
District Total Shortfall

LLMD No. 12 $40,000 0%$0 $40,000
TOTAL $265,000 13%$4,000 $261,000
City staff conducted a community engagement process to determine property owners’ support for, or opposition to, the General Fund loan in each district. Due to the size and composition of each district, the community engagement efforts and results varied as follows:
LLMD No. 1 – Gateway
This district has 43 assessable commercial parcels consisting of the Solano Town Center and surrounding shopping mall area. Engagement for this district included flyers mailed in May and July with a brief description of the anticipated deficit and a request for the property owners to complete an online survey indicating their support for, or opposition to, the approximate $170,000 General Fund loan.
Property owners were directed to the CivicMic.com/cityoffairfield website for more information. Since there were no survey responses received as of the original closing date of July 15, 2022, the survey was extended through July 22, 2022. As of the extended closing date, no responses to the survey have been received.

The survey responses for LLMDs No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, No. 6 – Peppertree, and No. 12 – Downtown Business District are attached. Question numbers 1, 15, and 16 in each survey requested contact and other personally identifiable information of respondents and have been removed from the attachment.
Approval of the four resolutions would authorize one contribution and budget transfer of $4,000 from the General Fund to LLMD No. 3 – Waterman Highlands. The resolutions would also authorize four loans and budget transfers totaling $261,000 from the Intergovernmental Loan Fund, disbursed as follows:
$165,000 to LLMD No, 1 – Gateway, $28,000 to LLMD No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, $28,000 to LLMD No. 6 – Peppertree, and $40,000 to LLMD No. 12 – Downtown Business District.
Each loan would be repayable over five years in equal installments beginning in FY 20232024 and would not bear interest. For each loan, repayment will occur from assessment revenues available either as a result of increased assessment approved pursuant to a Proposition 218 proceeding or a reduction in services.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total authorization for the contribution from the General Fund (Fund 011) to LLMD No. 3 – Waterman Highlands (Fund 073) is $4,000.
The total authorization for the four loans from the Intergovernmental Loan Fund (Fund 551) is $261,000, disbursed as follows: $165,000 to LLMD No, 1 – Gateway (Fund 072, Division and Responsibility Code 99000), $28,000 to LLMD No. 3 – Waterman Highlands (Fund 073, Division and Responsibility Code 99000), $28,000 to LLMD No. 6 – Peppertree (Fund 076, Division and Responsibility Code 99000), and $40,000 to LLMD No. 12 – Downtown Business District (Fund 084, Division and Responsibility Code 99000).
The General Fund will forfeit less than 1%, or approximately $7,000, of potential interest earnings.
However, these forfeited earnings do not pose a financial hardship to the General Fund.
PUBLIC CONTACT/ADVISORY BODY RECOMMENDATION
A virtual community meeting was held on June 14, 2022, for the property owners in LLMD No. 3 – Waterman Highlands and LLMD No. 6 – Peppertree. A prerecorded message was made available online for the property owners in LLMD No. 12 – Downtown Business District.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
Council may choose not to approve the loans. However, if the loans are not approved, landscape maintenance services will be reduced in FY 20222023.

Agenda Item No: 18.AGENDA REPORTDATE:August 16, 2022 TO:Mayor and City CouncilFROM:David Gassaway, Interim City ManagerSUBJECT:Resolutions 2022210 to 2022213 of the City Council of the City of FairfieldAuthorizing a Loan and Budget Transfer from the Intergovernmental Loan Fund toLandscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 1 – Gateway, District No. 3 –Waterman Highlands, District No. 6 – Peppertree, and District No. 12 – DowntownBusiness District for Landscape Maintenance Services Through the Fiscal Year 20222023 and Authorizing an Update to the Fiscal Year 20222023 BudgetRECOMMENDED ACTIONReceive report, open discussion, adopt resolutions, or provide direction to staff.STATEMENT OF ISSUEThe fiscal year (FY) 20222023 anticipated assessment revenue for Landscaping and LightingMaintenance Districts (LLMDs) No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, No. 6 – Peppertree,and No. 12 – Downtown Business District are insufficient to continue providing landscape maintenanceservices at the current levels. Approval of these resolutions will authorize four loans and budget transferstotaling $261,000 from the Intergovernmental Fund and a General Fund contribution of $4,000 to theLLMDs for landscape maintenance services through FY 20222023.DISCUSSIONIn August 2021, the City hired NBS to conduct an initial review of the City’s 16 LLMDs to determine theoperational and financial viability of each district. The initial phase of the project included a broadreview of the districts’ engineer’s reports, documentation of annexations, fund balances and budgets,an audit of boundaries, and a final report of findings which would be the foundational groundwork forsubsequent phases of the project. During FY 20212022, City staff and NBS identified nine districts, LLMDs No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 –Waterman Highlands, No. 5 – Smith Ranch, No. 6 – Peppertree, No. 7 – Rolling Hills, No. 8 – Kolob,No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, LLMD No. 12 – Downtown Business District, and No. 13 – NorthCordelia, that were projected to have a fund balance and budget deficit in the next 13 fiscal years ifservices were provided at the same levels as previous fiscal years. These districts require a communityengagement and Proposition 218 balloting process in FY 20222023 to determine the property owners’desire to increase assessments beginning in FY 20232024. Two of the nine districts, LLMDs No. 5 – Smith Ranch and No. 8 – Kolob, would have sufficientassessment revenues to maintain services at the previous levels during FY 20222023, while theremaining seven districts would require significant reductions. On July 7, 2021, City staff notified City Council of the anticipated deficit for LLMDs No. 7 – Rolling Hills,No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, and No. 13 – North Cordelia. After a community engagement processthat included a virtual town hall meeting and online survey, council issued General Fund loans of$410,000, $175,000, and $151,000 to each district, respectively, on May 3, 2022, to allow the districtsto provide enhanced levels of service. The loans were issued at 0% interest with a 5year repaymentterm. On April 19, 2022, City staff informed council that LLMDs No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – WatermanHighlands, and No. 6 – Peppertree were projected to have fund balance deficits of approximately$170,000, $40,000, and $40,000, respectively, in FY 20222023 if services were provided at the samelevel as previous fiscal years. Ciry staff returned to council on July 5, 2022, to report a projected deficitof approximately $40,000 in LLMD No. 12 – Downtown Business District for the same reason. Councildirected staff to offer General Fund Loans at 0% interest and a 5year repayment term to each of thedistricts. The loans would supplement each district’s assessment revenue and eliminate the need for abudget reduction. The shortfall in each district was recalculated with updated projections after the April 19, 2022, meeting.The new anticipated shortfall in each district is $165,000 for LLMD No. 1 – Gateway, $32,000 for LLMDNo. 3 – Waterman, and $28,000 for LLMD No. 6 – Peppertree. There was no change to LLMD No. 12 –Downtown Business District.In addition to the loans, the shortfall in each district would be proportionately funded by the district andthe General Fund. The General Fund would contribute a sum equivalent to the proportion of the regularGeneral Fund contribution budgeted in FY 20212022. The General Fund and district shares are as follows:District Total Shortfall GF Share ofFY2122 Budget GF Share ofShortfall District Share ofShortfallLLMD No. 1 $165,000 0%$0 $165,000LLMD No. 3 $32,000 13%$4,000 $28,000LLMD No. 6 $28,000 0%$0 $28,000LLMD No. 12 $40,000 0%$0 $40,000TOTAL$265,000 13%$4,000 $261,000City staff conducted a community engagement process to determine property owners’ support for, oropposition to, the General Fund loan in each district.

RESOLUTION NO. 2022-210
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FAIRFIELD AUTHORIZING A LOAN AND
BUDGET TRANSFER FROM THE INTERGOVERNMENTAL LOAN FUND TO LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING MAINTENANCE DISTRICT NO. 1 – GATEWAY FOR LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE SERVICES THROUGH THE FISCAL YEAR 2022-2023 AND AUTHORIZING AN UPDATE TO THE FISCAL YEAR 2022-2023 BUDGET
WHEREAS, on April 19, 2022, City staff informed the City Council that fiscal year (FY) 2022-2023 assessment revenue for Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District (LLMD) No. 1 – Gateway is insufficient to provide a level of landscape maintenance services comparable to the level of services provided in FY 2021-2022; and
WHEREAS, the council may approve intergovernmental fund loans in accordance with the Interfund Loan Policy; and
WHEREAS, the council may set the interest rate at 0% in accordance with Resolution 1991-213B; and
WHEREAS, the projected shortfall was initially calculated at $170,000; and
WHEREAS, the council authorized staff to offer a $170,000 loan from the Intergovernmental Loan Fund to LLMD No. 1 – Gateway which would be repayable over five years in equal annual installments beginning in FY 2023-2024 with 0% interest for the purposes of providing landscape maintenance services at the FY 2021-2022 levels through FY 2022-2023; and
WHEREAS, the shortfall was recalculated to be $165,000; and
WHEREAS, a community survey was conducted from May 27, 2022, to July 22, 2022, to ascertain property owners’ level of support for, or opposition to, receiving a loan and paying a greater assessment rate for five years to repay the loan; and
WHEREAS, providing for the loan to bear 0% interest will not pose a financial hardship to the General Fund; and
WHEREAS, funding was not allocated in the City’s approved FY 2022-2023 Budget thus requiring an adjustment in the amount of $165,000 to cover the loan amount; and
WHEREAS, the revised appropriation constitutes an update to the FY 2022-2023 Budget approved pursuant to Resolution No. 2022-122.
