SCOPE OF WORK
UNION CITY received a grant under MTC's Innovative Deployments to Enhance Arterials (IDEA) Program — an initiative that is designed to support cities, counties and transit agencies in the implementation of either mature, commercially-available technologies (Category 1) or new, higher-risk connected and automated vehicle technologies (Category 2). The IDEA Program aims to:
1. Improve travel time and travel time reliability along arterials for autos and transit vehicles;
2. Improve safety of motorists, transit riders, bicyclists, and pedestrians;
3. Decreasing motor vehicle emissions and fuel consumption; and
4. Improve knowledge of and proficiency in the use of advanced technologies for arterial operations.
Specifically, AGENCY received a grant for a Category 1 project (Figure 1 to Figure 5) to improve arterial operation and safety:
1. Deploy Automated Traffic Signal Performance Measures (ATSPM) on several corridors throughout the City;
2. Deploy Adaptive Signal Control Technology (ASCT) along two major corridors: Union City Boulevard and Decoto Road;
3. Install a new Central Signal Management System;
4. Upgrade Communication system and controllers on several corridors throughout the City; and
5. Implement bicycle and pedestrian detections.
Where appropriate and applicable, UNION CITY shall lead the procurement to engage vendor(s), contractor(s), and/or consultant(s) to perform the work necessary to successfully complete the project. Such procurements could include, but are not be limited to, the following:
Capital (e.g., systems, software/hardware/firmware, equipment, etc.) Design services
System integration services
Project construction services
Construction management/support services
Some of the procurements for technical assistance services could be led and managed by MTC.
During the course of the project, MTC Project Manager and UNION CITY Project Manager shall work collectively to determine which agency will lead which procurement, based on what would be the most efficient and expeditious approach to meeting the project delivery schedule.
UNION CITY shall participate in regularly-scheduled calls to ensure project delivery goals are met. UNION CITY shall provide an appropriate level of staff support and administration required for the successful completion of the project. UNION CITY shall agree to share data collected as part of the project, if requested by MTC. MTC and UNION CITY shall mutually agree upon what specific data can be shared.

AMENDED AND RESTATED
PROJECT FUNDING AGREEMENT
between
ALAMEDA COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
and the
CITY OF UNION CITY
for the
UNION CITY TRAFFIC SIGNAL CONTROL IMPROVEMENTS
This Amended and Restated Project Funding Agreement (“AGREEMENT”), dated for reference purposes only as of March 15, 2021, is by and between ALAMEDA COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION, a joint powers agency (“ALAMEDA CTC”), and the CITY OF UNION CITY, a public agency (“PROJECT SPONSOR”).
This AGREEMENT obligates funds from one or more ALAMEDA CTC administered funding programs as indicated below, and as further specified in Appendix A: Project Control Information and Appendix B:
Alameda CTC Administered Funds Obligated by this AGREEMENT, for the PROJECT, as such term is defined in Recital K below.
☐ 2000 Measure B
☐ 2014 Measure BB
☐ Vehicle Registration Fee
☒ Transportation Fund for Clean Air
☐ CMA TIP
RECITALS
A. The voters of Alameda County, pursuant to the provisions of the Bay Area County Traffic and Transportation Funding Act, Public Utilities Code Section 131000, et seq., approved Measure B at the General Election held in November 1986, authorizing the collection of a one-half cent transaction and use tax over a fifteen (15)-year period to address major transportation needs and congestion in Alameda County and giving Alameda County Transportation Authority (“ACTA”) the responsibility for the administration of the proceeds of the tax. The proceeds from the 1986 Measure B tax have been and continue to be used to pay for investments as outlined in the 1986 Alameda County Transportation Expenditure Plan (“1986 TEP”), as it may be amended. Although collection of the 1986 Measure B tax ceased in 2002, capital projects funded wholly or in part by 1986 Measure B funds are still being delivered using these funds.
B. The voters of Alameda County, pursuant to the provisions of the Local Transportation Authority and Improvement Act, Public Utilities Code Section 180000, et seq., approved the reauthorization of Measure B at the General Election held on November 7, 2000, authorizing the collection of a one-half cent transaction and use tax to be collected for twenty (20) years beginning April 1, 2002 and giving Alameda County Transportation Improvement Authority (“ACTIA”) responsibility for the administration of the proceeds of the tax.. The proceeds from the 2000 Measure B tax have been and continue to be used to pay for investments as outlined in the 2000 Alameda County Transportation Expenditure Plan (“2000 TEP”), as it may be amended.

Project No. 1511004
2021 PFA Version
C. The voters of Alameda County, pursuant to Section 65089.20 of the Government Code, approved Measure F, the Vehicle Registration Fee (“VRF”), authorizing Alameda County Congestion Management Agency (“ACCMA”) to administer the proceeds from a $10 per year vehicle registration fee on each annual motor-vehicle registration in Alameda County, starting with registrations effective July 2011 with collection beginning in May 2011, six months following approval of Measure F. Vehicles subject to the VRF include all motorized vehicles, including passenger cars, light-duty trucks, medium-duty trucks, heavy-duty trucks, buses of all sizes, motorcycles, and motorized camper homes, unless vehicles are expressly exempted from the payment of the VRF.
D. By resolutions adopted by the ACTA and ACTIA Boards on June 24, 2010, all of ACTA’s functions and responsibilities were assigned to, and accepted by, ACTIA. On that same date, the ACTIA and ACCMA Boards took the final actions to create ALAMEDA CTC, a joint powers authority with all responsibilities of ACTIA and ACCMA. Pursuant to resolutions adopted by the ACTIA and ACCMA Boards and the Commission of ALAMEDA CTC, ACCMA and ACTIA were terminated as of the close of business on February 29, 2012, with ALAMEDA CTC designated as the successor entity. All of its predecessors’ functions and responsibilities have been assigned to, and accepted by, ALAMEDA CTC.
E. The voters of Alameda County, pursuant to the provisions of the Local Transportation Authority and Improvement Act, California Public Utilities Code Section 180000 et seq., approved Measure BB at the General Election held on November 4, 2014, authorizing the extension of an existing one-half of one percent transaction and use tax scheduled to terminate on March 31, 2022, and the augmentation of the tax by one-half of one percent, and giving ALAMEDA CTC responsibility for the administration of the proceeds of the 2014 Measure BB tax. The duration of the 2014 Measure BB tax will be 30 years from the initial year of collection, which began April 1, 2015, with said tax to terminate/expire on March 31, 2045. The proceeds from the 2014 Measure BB will be used to pay for investments as outlined in the 2014 Alameda County Transportation Expenditure Plan (“2014 TEP”), as it may be amended.
F. As the Transportation Fund for Clean Air (“TFCA”) Program Manager in Alameda County, ALAMEDA CTC annually programs 40 percent of the TFCA funds collected in Alameda County. ALAMEDA CTC receives these funds from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (“BAAQMD”), and then distributes these funds on a reimbursement basis to eligible project sponsors.
G. ALAMEDA CTC is continuing the implementation of the CMA Exchange Program, originally established by the ACCMA, for the purpose of providing local or otherwise unrestricted funds to ALAMEDA CTC for use in projects and programs adopted into the CMA Transportation Improvement Program (“CMA TIP”) by ALAMEDA CTC.
H. The funding programs administered by ALAMEDA CTC and available for projects and programs that benefit the Alameda County transportation system, consisting of 1986 Measure B, 2000 Measure B, 2014 Measure BB, VRF, TFCA, and CMA TIP, are collectively defined as and shall be referenced herein as the “ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS”. Requirements related to 2000 Measure B, VRF and 2014 Measure BB Direct Local Distribution (“DLD”) funding distributed pursuant to 2000 Measure B, VRF and 2014 Measure BB Transportation Expenditure Plans are covered by separate agreements between ALAMEDA CTC and DLD recipients.

This one-time extension to the Agreement Expiration Date does not require approval from ALAMEDA CTC’s governing body.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed by and between the parties that the CURRENT AGREEMENT is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth in this AGREEMENT, and the parties agree as follows:

6. Should any portion of PROJECT be financed with federal or state funds, all applicable laws, rules and policies relating to the use of such funds shall apply, notwithstanding other provisions of this AGREEMENT.
7. For TFCA funds obligated by this AGREEMENT, this AGREEMENT is subject to the current BAAQMD-approved TFCA County Program Manager Fund Policies included in Appendix G:
Transportation Fund for Clean Air Policies and Requirements and any new requirements imposed by the BAAQMD upon ALAMEDA CTC with respect to the TFCA funds distributed hereunder.

12. ALAMEDA CTC approval of PROJECT SPONSOR submitted Requests for Reimbursement will be contingent on the submittal of progress reports and deliverables by PROJECT SPONSOR as required by this AGREEMENT. In the event that progress reports and deliverables are not complete and current, approval of Requests for Reimbursement shall be withheld until an acceptable remedy has been implemented and approved by ALAMEDA CTC. If PROJECT SPONSOR fails to submit the required deliverables or otherwise fails to meet the reporting and invoicing requirements of this AGREEMENT, ALAMEDA CTC may deobligate funds from the PROJECT and this AGREEMENT.

15. For the purposes of the following provisions, “ALAMEDA CTC Share” shall mean the percentage share of the original property purchase price funded by ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS (i.e., if the purchase was fully funded by ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS, ALAMEDA CTC Share shall equal 100%); any appraisal required under Section III.15(a) and Section III.15(f) only, shall be conducted at no cost to ALAMEDA CTC; “Fair Market Value” of a given property shall mean the net proceeds from the sale of such property if such sale occurs in an open market transaction or by auction, or the value of the property determined by an independent third-party appraisal of the property if some or all of the property is retained by PROJECT SPONSOR or otherwise transferred to any other party without an auction or open market transaction; and “CPI” means the Consumer Price Index, All Items for All Urban Consumers, San FranciscoOakland, San Jose, CA. a.

CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS used to acquire the property, as escalated by the increase in the CPI during the most recent period for which CPI data is available which is equal in length to the period between the date ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS were paid to PROJECT SPONSOR and the date reimbursement is made to ALAMEDA CTC. b. If any property is acquired for the PROJECT using ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS to finance some or all of the acquisition and only a portion of the acquired property is required for the PROJECT, and if the PROJECT begins construction within five (5) years after the effective date of this AGREEMENT (as such deadline may be extended by agreement between the parties hereto), then PROJECT SPONSOR shall, within one (1) year after PROJECT completion, reimburse ALAMEDA CTC for ALAMEDA CTC Share of the Fair Market Value of any property determined to be “excess property”. c. If the PROJECT begins construction within five (5) years after the effective date of this AGREEMENT (as such deadline may be extended by agreement between the parties hereto), then except as provided in subparagraph (d) below, no reimbursement is due with respect to any property interest acquired for the project using ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS if the entirety of the acquired property is required for the PROJECT. d. If PROJECT SPONSOR anticipates receiving net revenues (i.e., rental or other income generated by the property, less reasonable costs for insurance, maintenance and related items) from any property acquired using ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS, PROJECT SPONSOR shall notify ALAMEDA CTC on how PROJECT SPONSOR will use such revenue to offset other project costs, and document such revenue separately in project reimbursement requests.
e. If PROJECT is suspended, PROJECT SPONSOR shall pay all property management costs. f. Property that is required for the PROJECT and acquired wholly or in part with ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS shall be available for PROJECT construction within ten (10) years of ALAMEDA CTC reimbursement to the PROJECT SPONSOR. If, after ten (10) years, PROJECT has not been completed, PROJECT SPONSOR shall reimburse ALAMEDA CTC Share of the fair market value of the property, based on the net proceeds from the sale of the property or an appraisal of the property conducted at no cost to ALAMEDA CTC, within one (1) year after the expiration of this ten (10) year period.
16. If condemnation procedures are required to obtain possession to Right-of-Way, ALAMEDA CTC will consider the required deposit as an eligible cost and reimburse the PROJECT SPONSOR upon request.
PROJECT SPONSOR shall submit documentation of the final order of condemnation settlement within ninety (90) days after the date of the court recording of the final order of condemnation. If the amount of ALAMEDA CTC reimbursement to the PROJECT SPONSOR is higher than ALAMEDA CTC Share of the amount of settlement in the final order of condemnation, the PROJECT SPONSOR shall pay ALAMEDA CTC the difference between the amount reimbursed and ALAMEDA CTC Share of the amount settled plus ALAMEDA CTC Share of the interest accrued to the deposit account within one (1) year of the final order of condemnation.

City Council/RSA Agenda 253 Tuesday, August 8, 2023
Agenda Item
DATE: 8/8/2023
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MARILOU AYUPAN, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A FIVE (5)-YEAR AGREEMENT, IN A FORM
APPROVED BY THE CITY ATTORNEY, PLUS OPTIONAL EXTENSIONS
WITH THE NEW HAVEN UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT FOR THE
PROVISION OF SEASONAL UNION CITY TRANSIT SERVICE TO BE
REIMBURSED IN AN AMOUNT-NOT-TO EXCEED $138,845 IN THE FIRST
YEAR, WITH FUTURE ANNUAL COSTS TO BE DETERMINED BASED
ON UNION CITY TRANSIT’S CONTRACT OPERATIONAL COSTS, AND REIMBURSED TO THE CITY’S TRANSIT FUND (FUND 5110) BY THE
NEW HAVEN UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution approving and authorizing the City Manager to execute a five (5)-year agreement, in a form approved by the City Attorney, plus optional extensions with the New Haven Unified School District (NHUSD) for the provision of seasonal Union City Transit service to be reimbursed in an amount not to exceed $138,845 in the first year, with future annualcosts and reimbursed to the City’s Transit Fund (Fund 5110) by the NHUSD.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Goal A. Economic, Community Development and Public Safety: Institute forward-thinking business, land use development, housing, social services, and public safety strategies that promote community growth and innovation.
Strategy 9: Update the short-range transit plan that includes an evaluation of providing services to the business district and the New Haven Unified School District.
BACKGROUND
City Council/RSA Agenda 254 Tuesday, August 8, 2023
The State of California (State) allocated funds to reimburse school districts up to sixty percent (60%) of the entity's prior year transportation costs, pursuant to Assembly Bill 181 (Chapter 52, Statutes of 2022) and Assembly Bill 185 (Chapter 571, Statutes of 2022).
As a condition of receiving the funds, NHUSD was required to complete a Transportation Plan. Development of the plan was pursuant to Education Codes 39800.1 and 41850.1 that indicated NHUSD shall be in consultation with its partners and stakeholders, allow for public input, and have its Governing Board adopt the Transportation Plan by April 1, 2023.
NHUSD’s Transportation Plan was drafted for review in February 2023 and approved by the NHUSD Board in March 2023. While NHUSD’s ultimate goal in the Transportation Plan is to restore school bus service, due to limitations in available resources, including funding, NHUSD determined the most viable option is to partner with existing public transit agencies, Union City Transit and Alameda-Contra Costa Transit District (AC Transit), in the interim.
DISCUSSION
NHUSD approached Union City requesting assistance meeting their student transportation requirement.
NHUSD was especially interested in meeting the transportation needs of students transitioning out of elementary school into middle school that live in southern Hayward and the Decoto neighborhood. Based on the State’s regulations, NHUSD indicates that they have a potential of 350 students that will need to be prioritized.
All public transit providers are prohibited from providing school bus service (unless there is no competing alternative), but are not prohibited from transporting students provided the service is open to the public. Union City Transit has provided supplemental service on Routes 1 and 5 for several years to meet the capacity needs of these routes during bell times for James Logan High School.
Union City worked with NHUSD to determine a new, seasonal route that would maximize the number of potential student riders using as many existing bus routes and bus stops as possible. The determined route minimizes the number of streets used in Hayward, where several of the streets have speed bumps, and will reestablish a bus stop on Lafayette Avenue in Hayward. This stop was historically used for the Route 4 until 2013 as the primary stop for Hayward students to catch the service. The route is approximately seven (7) miles in each direction to provide access to three (3) of the NHUSD schools, including James Logan High School, Cesar Chavez Middle School, and Itliong-Vera Cruz Middle School. The new seasonal route is shown in Attachment 1 to this staff report.
Union City Transit buses accommodate up to sixty (60) passengers at a time, thirty-two (32) seated and twenty-eight (28) standing, which will require the use of six (6) Union City Transit buses if all 350 students use the transit service. Union City Transit currently has seventeen (17) buses available with thirteen (13) committed to peak service. To accommodate this apparent shortage of equipment, Union City Transit will use some of its larger demand-response (paratransit or wheelchair accessible vehicle) equipment for one (1) run in each direction on Routes 3 and 4 to free up the larger capacity buses for the service.
Six (6) buses in the morning are expected to use 5.5 hours of service and six (6) buses in the afternoon are expected to use 6.5 hours of service, the discrepancy happening because of traffic patterns when the afternoon bells occur. NHUSD will be billed the variable hour cost for each service hour that Union City Transit’s operations and maintenance contractor (MV Transportation, Inc./MV Transit) bills Union City Transit for the hours of service; the current hourly cost for fiscal year 2023-24 (FY23-24) is $64.28, which equates to $771.36 per day for twelve (12) hours of service. For the NHUSD’s required 180 days of an instruction per year it is estimated to cost NHUSD $138,845 (rounded up to the nearest whole dollar) reimbursable to Union City City Council/RSA Agenda 255 Tuesday, August 8, 2023
Transit.
Union City Transit and NHUSD will monitor ridership for effective and efficient use of resources. Ridership throughout the semester will determine how the service evolves in the following semester and may include reducing the number of buses provided. If ridership does not materialize, Union City Transit and NHUSD will adjust after sixty (60) days.
While the NHUSD academic year begins on Wednesday, August 9, 2023, this seasonal service will take effect on Monday, September 11, 2023, as part of the service changes approved at the July 25, 2023, City Council meeting, Resolution No. 6176-23.
Costs would be adjusted annually by May 1 of each year with the new Union City Transit cost per hour of service to ensure that service is available for the following academic year. The proposed base agreement is for five (5)-years with four (4) five (5)-year options to extend. The agreement may be terminated in sixty (60) days by either party.
FISCAL IMPACT
The seasonal service will not cost Union City Transit any additional funding since it will be reimbursed into the Transit Fund (5110) by the NHUSD. There will be no impact on the City’s General Fund.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution approving and authorizing the City Manager to execute a five (5)-year agreement, in a form approved by the City Attorney, plus optional extensions with the NHUSD for the provision of seasonal Union City Transit service to be reimbursed in an amount not to exceed $138,845 in the first year, with future annual costs and reimbursed to the City’s Transit Fund (Fund 5110) by the NHUSD.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JOAN MALLOY, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION APPROVING THE MAYOR’S APPOINTMENT OF TWO
COUNCILMEMBERS TO AN AD HOC SUBCOMMITTEE TO EVALUATE
AND PROVIDE RECOMMENDATIONS ON THE PLACEMENT OF
POTENTIAL REVENUE MEASURES ON A2024 ELECTION BALLOT
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Mayor’s appointment of two Councilmembers to an Ad Hoc Subcommittee to evaluate and provide recommendations on the placement of potential revenue measures on a 2024 election ballot.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
GoalA. Financial Stability and Sustainability
Draft Strategy (2023): Pursue the placement of a voter-approved revenue measure on a ballot to address the funding gap between revenues and expenditures for fundamental public safety and other city services.
BACKGROUND
At the June 13, 2023 study session and public hearing for the FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 Biennial Budget and Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan, and review of the long-range financial forecast, several City Councilmembers expressed an interest in exploring possible voter-approved revenue measures to address anticipated future gaps in funding City services, in particular public safety services. While the City currently maintains a health General Fund reserve, the rising costs of supplies, equipment, contracts, and employee salaries and retirement obligations, are projected to drain the General Fund by 2028 to the minimum reserve fund balance of twenty percent of its annual operating expenditures, which is equivalent to approximately ten weeks of operations. The City Council has prudently adopted Financial Principles to maintain a minimum of twenty percent General Fund reserve. In additions, the City Council has adopted fiscal stability and sustainability as its primary goal in the Strategic Plan.
City Council/RSA Agenda 266 Tuesday, August 8, 2023
On July 11, 2023, the City Counciladopted Resolution No. 6164-23 to engage TeamCivX to assist the City in conducting a community survey and provide additional consultation services to assist the City in considering a ballot measure in 2024. To support this evaluation process for a revenue measure, staff recommends the creation of a City Council Ad Hoc Subcommittee. Based on the survey results and the recommendations of the Ad Hoc Subcommittee, the Council would consider proceeding with a community education and outreach program and placing a revenue measure or measures on the 2024 election ballots for voter consideration.
DISCUSSION
Members of the Ad Hoc Subcommittee will work with TeamCivX consultant team and staff to explore possible revenue measures. The Subcommittee would also assist in reviewing the proposed community survey that would help the City Council understand voter attitudes toward revenue measures and help the City Council determine the timing for placement on the ballot. There are two opportunities for possible placement on the ballot: the primary election on March 5, 2024 and the generalelection on November 5, 2024.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no impact to the General Fund to form an Ad Hoc Subcommittee.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Mayor’s appointment of two Councilmembers to an Ad Hoc Subcommittee to evaluate and provide recommendations on the placement of potential revenue measures on a 2024 election ballot.
