Consider Resolution Authorizing the City's FY 2005 -2006
Transportation Development Act Claim
Each year the City Council is asked to approve a resolution
authorizing the City Manager to submit a claim for the City's
Transportation Development Act (TDA) funds. The City is required to
file this claim annually in order to receive the funds. TDA revenue
is generated from a 1/0 sales tax that must first be spent on transit
projects. After meeting any "unmet transit needs that could be
reasonably met using TDA funds," the remaining local TDA funds may
be used for streets and road related purposes. If approved, the
City would claim its entire $1,179,740 apportionment.
DISCUSSION
The funds are apportioned to the
formula based on population.
apportionment is $1,179,740. This

The City's FY 2005 -2006 TDA
is an increase of $84,047 compared
portionment of $1,095,693. Economic
spending habits affect the amount
generated.
TDA revenue is the funding source for the City's transit system,
including the Senior Dial -a -Ride and the Americans with Disabilities
Act (ADA) Paratransit Dial -a -Ride, the Moorpark City Transit fixed
routes, and other transit improvements such as bus shelters. Transit
planning efforts by Parks, Recreation & Community Services
Department staff are also funded with TDA revenue. Major capital
costs, such as buses, are often funded with federal grants. In those

cases, the local matching funds (typically twenty percent) comes
from TDA funds. TDA also funds the City's share of the VISTA -East
(Ventura Intercity Service Transportation Authority) regional bus.
An annual $400,000 countywide contribution to Metrolink operating
costs is taken "off the top" of TDA funds prior to apportioning the
funds among the county jurisdictions, as are funds for the Ventura
County Transportation Commission (VCTC) . After transit and other
expenses are met, the remainder is available for streets and roads.
Consistent with the Fiscal Year 2005 -2006 adopted budget it is
proposed that $500,000 be claimed for Transit, leaving $679,740 to
be claimed for Streets & Roads.
In anticipation of the City's annual TDA allocation, the TDA revenue
from this claim and the associated expenditure of funds were
included in the FY 2005 -2006 budget. At the time of budget
preparation, staff estimated that apportionment for Streets & Roads
would be $681,142, as shown above, the actual amount available is
$679,740, a difference of $1,402 less for Street and Roads. The
claim can be considered for approval at this time, and the revenue
budget adjustment will be made when the Council considers the
midyear budget adjustment.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 2005- , authorizing the City Manager to sign
the Fiscal Year 2005 -2006 TDA Claim on behalf of the City for
submittal to VCTC.
