TITLE: Resolution /~ ~~~Approving Agreemen Between the City of
Chula Vista and SCOOT for Transit rv ce for FY 1982-83
[TTED BY: Development Services Administrate ~ 4/5ths Vote: Yes No x )
~ was created as a joint powers agency between the City of Chula Vista and
County of San Diego in August 1979. SCOOT provides transit service to
members and makes Transportation Development Act (TDA) claims against
member's apportionment based on transit service provided. Therefore it
CUSSION: One major issue regarding this agreement is the continuation of
OT and the City's participation as part of the Joint Powers Agency with the
my of San Diego. At the present time I see no disadvantage to the City
tracting with SCOOT for transit service and believe that the current
angement has the following advantages:
- SCOOT offers the potential for expanding transit operations in
South Bay under one organizational structure. The Transit
Coordinator and I will prepare a report to Council and SCOOT Board
that will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of SCOOT expanding
to include other operators. We plan to have this report ready to
present to Council and SCOOT Board in this summer.
- SCOOT provides the basis for greater cooperation on transit matters
between the City and the County.
Apri 1 1 , 1982 SCOOT submi tted a cl ai m to SANDAG and MTDB i n the amount of
i3 ,515 against the City of Chula Vista's total FY 1982-83 TDA apportionment
X1,128,286. This claim amount included X871,865 for operations; $11,650
• capital purchases next fiscal year; and X80,000 to be contributed to a
vital reserve for future bus purchase.
amount of service (revenue miles) operated in Chula Vista will increase
iut 4~ in FY 1982-83 due to the increased service on Route 704. However,
incil and SCOOT Board have directed Transit staff to evaluate the

b dy in October 1982 with a recommendation either to continue the expanded
s rvice for the duration of FY 1982-83 or to terminate the expanded service.
T erefore the 4% mileage increase attributed to Route 704 will be implemented
o atrial basis.
P jected net cost to the City (gross cost minus fa re box revenue) for
FY 1982-83 will increase from an estimated $813,000 in FY 1981-82 to $902,000
i FY 1982-83, an increase of about 10%. This increase is anticipated because
o an increase in gross cost per mile of about 8.9%, and an increase in
revenue miles operated of 4%. Revenue per passenger is estimated to increase
f m the current $.36 to $.42 per passenger; however we expect only a 3%
in rease in total passengers for next fiscal year, from the current 585,000 to
a ut 605,000.
Ex ept for updated cost and operating statistics projected for FY 1982-83, all
of the provisions of the FY 1981-82 agreement remain in affect.
SCOOT must submit a copy of this agreement to SANDAG by July 1, 1982 in order
to release TDA funds for 1982-83.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Chula Vista TDA Apportionment $1,129,286
SCOOT Claim (Chula Vista Account) - 963,515
San Diego Transit Claim (estimate) - 150,000
Balance $ 15,771
