CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 6, 1994
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Terrence L. Belanger, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 94 -XX - A Resolution of the City Council of the City of
Diamond Bar authorizing and approving the exchange of Proposition A (Local
Return Transit Funds) to the City of Lancaster for unencumbered funds.
ISSUE STATEMENT:
The City of Diamond Bar has approximately $300,000 in uncommitted Proposition A Local Return
Transit Funds and has reached an accord with the City of Lancaster to exchange these funds for
unencumbered funds at the rate of $0.69 on the dollar.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving the exchange of
Proposition A Local Return funds and authorizing the City Manager to execute the necessary
documents in order to effectuate the exchange funds with the City of Lancaster.
FINANCIAL SUMMARY:
The City has a Proposition A carry over balance of $961,121 from Fiscal Year 1993-94. It is
anticipated that the City's Fiscal Year 1994-95 Proposition A allocation will be about $538,600. As
a result, the City will have an estimated $1,457,600 in Proposition A funds in Fiscal Year 1994-95.
Within this fiscal year, the City Council has budgeted $837,600 from the Proposition A Transit Fund
for various transit related projects including, but not limited to: the provision of paratransit services;
bus pads along Diamond Bar boulevard; expansion of the Diamond Bar Boulevard Park -and -Ride; the
holiday shuttle; and related transit services.
BACKGROUND:
Proposition A, the 1/2 cent sales tax for transit, was approved by voters in 1980. The revenues
generated through this half cent sales tax are intended to be used towards the development of transit
related programs, which are administered by the Los Angles County Metropolitan Transportation
Authority (LACMTA). In administering the program, LACMTA has elected to distribute these "Local
Return" funds directly to cities on a per capita basis. The City must use its Local Return funds
within three (3) years from the date of receipt or they will be reallocated to other cities.
DISCUSSION:
Local Return funds are designed to be spent solely on public transit projects. The City currently has
in excess of $300,000 in uncommitted Local Return Funds from FY 1992-93 and has the option of
exchanging these funds with another local agency to assist in providing transit related services.
Iaa hubuoa, alas; %L—iLy 1LiGG1VGL1 IIOUCC That the Uity n* 1 �nn��tA,- «,-,s j�,�,�;,,g r--
$1,500,000
$1,500,000 in Proposition A funds for capital projects related to their Metrolink Station. Although the
City has received a number of offers from other cities interested in exchanging Proposition A funds
for unencumbered funds, the City of Lancaster has offered the highest exchange rate at $0.69 on the
dollar.
The City Council approved the City's Fiscal Year 1994-95 Budget in July. As part of this years'
budget authorization, the City Council allocated $200,000 to the Los Angeles County Public Library
to fund additional library services within the City. During the City Council's budgetary deliberations,
it was proposed and approved that the City use funds received through the exchange of Proposition A
funds to fund additional library services. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council accept
the City of Lancaster's offer of $0.69 on the dollar, and exchange $300,000 in uncommitted
Proposition A funds with the City of Lancaster for $207,000 in unencumbered funds.
