SUMMARY
The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) has notified the local agencies that
requests for the October 2011 amendment to the Regional Transportation Improvement Program
(RTIP) may be submitted beginning July 28, 2011. Signed resolutions must be submitted to
SANDAG by September 2, 2011. The City will need to submit a request for amendment in order
to provide funding for two projects that were approved as part of the City's Capital Improvement
Program (CIP) for Fiscal Year 2011-12.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Director of Development Services has reviewed the proposed activity, consisting of
approval to submit a funding request for various Transnet Projects to SANDAG, for compliance
with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is
5-1
8/16/11, Item 5
Page 2 of 6
not a "Project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Therefore,
pursuant to Section 15060 (c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to
CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary at this time. Although environmental review
is not necessary at this time, once the scope of the individual projects proposed to be funded have
been more specifically defined, environmental review will be required for each project and the
appropriate environmental determination will be made.
RECOMMENDATION
Council conduct the public hearing and adopt the resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
State and Federal regulations require the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAL) to
develop and adopt a Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP) every two years in
order to continue receiving State and Federal funding. SANDAL also administers and
distributes to local cities funding from Transnet, transportation funding obtained from the %-cent
sales tax extended to the year 2048 by San Diego County voters in November 2004. All projects
that the City of Chula Vista proposes to fund with Transnet funds must be included within the
RTIP, as well as projects that are funded with State and Federal funds.
Council approved the allocation of the City's portion of the 2010 RTIP on March 23, 2010. The
2010 RTIP allocated the City's anticipated funding from the Transnet Local Street Improvement
Program for Fiscal Years 2010-11 through 2014-15 based on projections provided by SANDAL.
The City can amend the RTIP on a quarterly basis in order to reflect changing needs and
priorities, as long as at least 70 percent of funds are used for construction of new or expanded
facilities, major rehabilitation and reconstruction of roadways, traffic signalization,
transportation infrastructure to support smart growth, capital improvements for transit facilities,
and operational support for local shuttle and circular transit routes (defined as "Congestion
Relief').
On March 10, 2011, Council held a public hearing and adopted Resolution No. 2011-047
(Attachment 1), which amended the City's portion of the 2010 RTIP. The amendment reflected
revised funding estimates provided by SANDAL, included additional locations for certain
projects, revised funding for existing projects, and added projects that staff anticipated would be
included in the Fiscal Year 2011-12 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). This amendment
(2010 RTIP Amendment No. 7) was approved by the SANDAL Board on April 15, 2011 and by
the Federal government (as the FTIP) on May 13, 2011.
PROPOSED RTIP AMENDMENT
Roadway Improvements at Olympic Parkway and Brandywine Avenue
One project added in Amendment No. 7 was the Eastern Chula Vista Transportation System
Management (TSM)/Transportation Demand Management (TDM) System (CHV64). East H
Street, Telegraph Canyon Road and Olympic Parkway east of Interstate 805 (I-805) are three
major east/west corridors in eastern Chula Vista that handle a combined total of over 185,000
5-2
8/16/11, Item
Page 3 of 6
vehicles per day. These corridors constantly need signal timing changes due to fluctuating traffic
demands. There is a need to improve our Transportation System Management (TSM) on these
three corridors with additional detection and improved corridor-level traffic signal timing plans.
Due to the amount of vehicular traffic on these corridors, improving mobility and reducing
delays will have a tremendous effect on the motoring public. This project will implement
permanent software/hardware systems that incorporate additional vehicle/bicycle detection on
approaches and gaps. Real-time data collected will then be used to assess, refine and implement
optimal traffic signal timing plans on these corridors. This information and these signal plans
will augment the arterial data through the Regional Arterial Management System (RAMS) so
that real-time travel analysis can also collaboratively be made available to the region, Caltrans,
the local agency and the public to allow for Transportation Systems Management (TSM) and
Transportation Demand Management (TDM). The cost of this project was estimated to be
$300,000 (Attachment 2).
During the process of preparing the Fiscal Year 2011-12 CIP, revised cost estimates were
obtained from the supplier of the software and hardware systems needed to implement this
project. The cost estimate was revised to $450,000. The proposed funding source was changed
to the Transportation Development Impact Fee (TDIF), as shown on the Project Description
Report for the Traffic Monitoring Center -Traffic Management System (TF379 -Attachment
3), which is the same project as CHV64. A sufficient amount was available in the TDIF fund
balance to fund this project. The TDIF is intended to provide funding for transportation impacts
due to development in eastern Chula Vista. Since the increase in traffic along these comdors in
eastern Chula Vista is due to increased development, this is an appropriate use for the TDIF
funds. Contracts for the installation of this equipment were awarded by Council resolution on
August 2, 201 L
An additional project along one of these comdors was projected and adopted as part of the Fiscal
Year 2011-12 CIP, Roadway Improvements at Olympic Pazkway and Brandywine (TF377 -
Attachment 4). Currently there is a long line of cars on westbound Olympic Parkway in the left
turn lane to southbound Brandywine Avenue during morning and afternoon rush hours. These
cars extend beyond the current left turn lane, thereby blocking through traffic. The
recommended project will increase the length of the westbound left turn pocket on Olympic
Parkway, make traffic signal modifications, signal timing and striping changes in order to
eliminate traffic congestion at this intersection. The cost was estimated to be $300,000. It was
assumed that the $300,000 Transnet allocation for CHV64 could be transferred to this project,
since it is eligible to receive Congestion Relief funds.
Harborside Elementary Pedestrian Improvements
The Hazborside Elementary Pedestrian Improvements project (TF368) was originally submitted
for the Fiscal Year 2008-09 CIl' in anticipation of receiving a Federal Transportation
Community and System Preservation (TCSP) grant. The original Transnet match was to be
$85,000 for a grant amount of $410,000. These funds have been programmed into RTIP project
CHV46.
Design of this project has been completed and plans have been sent to Caltrans. It has been
estimated that an additional $177,000 will be needed in order to complete construction of this
project. The additional funding has been approved as part of the Fiscal Year 2011-12 CII'
5-3

(Attachment 5). Funds will be reallocated from TF330, Traffic Signal Modifications at Fourth
and Main and Fourth and Beyer (CHV35). These funds have not yet been drawn down and are
still on deposit with SANDAL.
TRANSNET REALLOCATION
Enhanced Traffic Calming Improvements at Montgomery Elementary School
On June 22, 2010, Council authorized staff to submit three grant applications for State Safe
Routes to School (SR2S) funding. Staff subsequently received a letter from Caltrans on October
20, 2010 stating that the City had been awarded $165,780 for the construction of traffic calming
improvements in the vicinity of Montgomery Elementary School. The City was required to
provide local matching funds of $18,420. Council adopted Resolution No. 2010-290 on
December 14, 2010 (Attachment 6), which accepted the grant funds and stated that the match
would be provided from Transnet funds that had already been appropriated under TF345, School
Zone Traffic Calming Program (CHV33). This project was subsequently included in the Fiscal
Year 2011 -12 CIP Program as STL375 (Attachment 7), with the Transnet contribution rounded
to $20,000.
The new project is still categorized as School Zone Traffic Calming, so it will not affect the
RTIP or Transnet programming, since the funds will stay within CHV33. However, the City's
accounting will reflect that the $20,000 in funds will be allocated under STL375.
Lauderbach Elementary School Pedestrian Improvements
On March 24, 2009, Council authorized staff to submit three grant applications for State Safe
Routes to School (SR2S) funding. Staff subsequently received a letter from Caltrans on August
11, 2009 stating that the City had been awarded $204, 300 for the construction of traffic calming
and pedestrian improvements at Fourth Avenue and Orsett Street. The City was required to
provide local matching funds of $25,480. Council adopted Resolution No. 2009-222 on
September 15, 2009 (Attachment 8), which accepted the grant funds and stated that the match
would be provided from Transnet funds in the Fiscal Year 2009-10 CIP. Anew CIP project was
created as STM368, Lauderbach Elementary School Pedestrian Improvements.
This project is currently in construction. In order to meet American with Disabilities Act (ADA)
requirements, additional design and construction work is necessary. It has been determined that
an additional $50,000 is needed in order to complete the project. According to SANDAL, the
City has an unappropriated carry over Transnet balance of $128,000 from previous fiscal year.
Staff proposes to appropriate $50,000 of this balance into STM368.
Changes proposed by both the RTIP Amendment and the Transnet Reallocation are summarized
in the table, "2010 RTIP/ Transnet Reallocation Changes" (Attachment 9).
TRANSNET REQUIREMENTS
Section 4(E)(3) of the Transnet Ordinance states, "All new projects, or major reconstruction
projects, funded by revenues provided under this Ordinance shall accommodate travel by
pedestrians and bicyclists, except where pedestrians and bicyclists are prohibited by law from
using a given facility or where the cost of including bikeways and walkways would be
excessively disproportionate to the need or probable use." This was further elaborated in Rule
20 of SANDAL Board Policy 31, "Accommodation of Bicyclists and Pedestrians", adopted by
5-4
8/16/11, Item S
Page 5 of 6
the SANDAL Board of Directors on February 22, 2008. This rule states that evaluating bicycle
and pedestrian accommodation is required for all major reconstruction projects included under
Congestion Relief under the 70-30 requirement. The decision not to provide for pedestrian and
bicycle facilities in a construction or major reconstruction project must be made for good cause,
such as severe topographic or biologic constraints, lack of sufficient right-of--way, or missing
curb and gutter (for sidewalks). It further states that cities may use a bicycle or pedestrian master
plan adopted by the city council and approved by SANDAL within the last five years to
determine the appropriate means of accommodating bicyclists and pedestrians in a given project.
Since Chula Vista's Bikeway Master Plan Update was recently adopted by the City Council on
February 1, 2011 and the Pedestrian Master Plan was adopted on June 22, 2010, they qualify
under this provision.
Staff has evaluated both of the projects included in the RTIP amendment for compliance with the
bicycle and pedestrian regulations. The Harborside Elementary School project is classified as a
maintenance project, so it is not subject to this policy. However, the purpose of this project is to
provide missing pedestrian and bicycle improvements in the vicinity of Harborside Elementary
School. Olympic Parkway and Brandywine Avenue have complete pedestrian facilities and Class
II bike lanes. Therefore, this RTIP Amendment is in compliance with the City's 2011 Bikeway
Master Plan, the City's 2010 Pedestrian Master Plan and Rule 20 of the SANDAL Board Policy
No. 31. No bicycle or pedestrian exclusions are necessary.
The Transnet Extension Ordinance also requires that the City exact from the private sector a
minimum of $2000 per new residential unit (EDU), effective July 1, 2008, with annual escalation
based on the ENR (or similar) Construction Cost Index. Beginning July 1, 2011, the minimum
collected requirement is $2123 per EDU. The City's Western Chula Vista Transportation
Development Impact Fee (WTDIF), originally effective July 1, 2008, complies with this
minimum. The City's Transportation Development Impact Fee has been in place for many years
for the area of the City east of I-805. The TDIF also complies, even though it was enacted
before the new Transnet legislation for the RTCIP was adopted.
These exactions are to pay for the proportional share of funding to improve the Regional Arterial
System. Low to moderate income housing units are exempt.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council Members and has found no property
holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the properties which are the subjects of this action.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
This action will have a positive impact on the General Fund because it will allow us to use
Transnet to pay for costs that may have otherwise needed to be funded through the General
Fund. Approval of this item will allow the City to reallocate funds for Fiscal Year 2011-12 and
authorize the appropriation of $50,000 from the available TransNet balance to exsiting CIP
STM368.
