4. Regular Calendar

A. RCPA Items

4.1. RCPA Projects and Planning

4.1.1. Solid Waste – Zero Waste Initiative presentation (REPORT)*

Carolyn Glanton introduced Leslie Lukacs and Sunny Galbraith, members of the Sonoma County Zero Waste Task Force (ZWTF). The presentation was focused on the Sonoma County Zero Waste Initiative.

This task force was established in 2017 and is a collaborative of Sonoma County citizens, local businesses, and stakeholder groups.

Initiatives have been collected, RCPA staff has participated in ZWTF meetings, contributed to the documents, and have shared these documents with the Climate Action working groups.

Zero Waste is the designing and managing of products and processes to avoid and eliminate the volume and toxicity of waste and materials, conserving and recovering all resources, and pledging not to burn or bury waste.

Ms. Glanton further described the work between climate action and zero waste. A Zero Waste Initiative and sample resolution was presented to the Board of Directors. This initiative asks jurisdictions to adopt a 2019 Zero Waste Resolution.

The U.S. EPA estimates 42% of greenhouse gas emissions are the result of production and use of goods. In Sonoma County, residents and businesses sent approximately 387,000 tons of waste to the landfills. An initial 2015 greenhouse gas emissions inventory is describing an increase

in both tonnage of wage disposed and an increase of greenhouse gas emissions since 2010.

Ms. Lukacs described the sample resolution to the Board of Directors.

This sample resolution will be presented to the city councils to adopt Zero Waste and several cities which have already adopted zero waste resolutions were cited, including Los Angeles and Oakland.

This initiative is organized into six sections: - Reduce - Recover/Reuse - Education and Outreach - Green purchasing, Environmentally

Preferable Procurement Policies - Extended Producer Responsibility - Workforce and Fiscal Sustainability

Ms. Galbraith, who is an educator in the City of Sebastopol, described existing work in local schools on outreach efforts. This provides an opportunity for children to learn about environmental challenges facing the communities. This is something that any child at any age can be a part of this education and help make a difference.

Ms. Galbraith described the low floor, high ceiling problem: anyone and everyone can participate regardless of skill and will make a significant difference.

Ms. Lukacs further described the formation of the Zero Waste Task Force and explained that public presentations will be held in the next few months. Director Zane recalled a coordinated committee that previously addressed zero waste. The committee, Solid Waste Advisory Group, which operated under the Brown Act from 2010-2013, produced an extensive report in which policies were adopted by the nine cities and County.

5

Director Zane further described the results of the Solid Waste Advisory Group.

Ms. Lukacs clarified the presentation, noting that the Zero Waste Task Force is a rebirth for Sonoma County. Since the Solid Waste Advisory Group met, there have been a change in the waste hauler that allows the opportunity to study waste management. These haulers have been known to be mindful of waste management and this creates an opportunity to build upon what has already been completed.

Director Gurney recalled the involvements on the committee with Director Zane and expressed appreciation for the work that has been completed by the Zero Waste Task Force.

Director Gurney asked where one would find statistics, since the language of the sample resolution states, “the goal of 75% waste diversion,” which means individuals need to know what the current statistic is.

Ms. Lukacs responded the statistic was not divided between the cities; however, the statistics could be divided by the population to provide a window of city-specific statistics. A specific, separate study focused on the cities would need to be done to describe city-by-city statistics.

Director Rabbitt added that having goals and heading toward zero waste is good, but wondered how a sample resolution would advance anything following the work of the Solid Waste Advisory Group. This does not take into account on what has already been done and expressed apprehension on what this initiative further advances.

Vice Chair Gorin described this initiative as exciting, and is capturing fresh minds and consciousness. The challenge, however, is

clarifying what more needs to be done to get to zero waste.

Chair Russell suggested personalizing the resolution and expressed the need to discuss this in the context of the household, as individuals are more likely to be mindful of their waste if it is practiced in the home. Chair Russell further suggested to consider the economics of waste and to consider visiting senior centers to promote this concept to the community. Furthermore, newer members from the Chamber of Commerce should be included in these conversations to address zero waste in the business sector.

Chair Russell thanked Ms. Lukacs and Ms. Galbraith for the presentation.

4.1.2. Activities Report – (REPORT)*

Carolyn Glanton updated the Board of Directors on the recent activities of the RCPA, including:

RCPA Coordination: the RCPA hosted a discussion on Three Revolutions in Urban transportation and how electrification and automation will look in Sonoma County.

Zero Waste Task Force: Staff continues to assist drafting a Zero Waste Policy for Sonoma County cities and County for consideration. A presentation at the Mayors and Councilmembers Association will be made in April.

Fire Recovery: Staff continues to assist government and community partners with information sharing, resources, and staff support for recovery and planning needs.

Electric Vehicle Coordination: Staff continues to meet with Sonoma Clean Power for conversations regarding electric vehicles.

6

Greenhouse Gas Inventory: Staff have presented updates from building energy use, water conveyance, and solid waste. A complete initial inventory will be released mid-April.

Bay Area Regional Energy Network: The Bay Area Multifamily Building Enhancement Program is offering a Resiliency Technical Assistance Pilot for five to ten multifamily properties in Sonoma County; a workshop is scheduled for April 17th.

Additionally, Staff is supporting efforts of local residents, businesses, and governments to help buildings comply with energy code and achieve zero new carbon emissions.

Funding initiatives:

The Bay Area Air Quality Management District will be launching a one-time Climate Projection Grant Program. This grant is offered to local governments and will fund projects in two areas: reducing greenhouse gas emissions from existing buildings and fostering innovative strategies.

In the staff report, staff requested direction to proceed with the grant topic of a local carbon cap-and-dividend study and submit to BAAQMD. However, after further conversations, staff has identified other possible topics that would be competitive. Staff is still interested in local carbon cap-and-dividend, but other opportunities might be better suited.

Suzanne Smith added the there is an interest in cap-and-dividend if the Board could provide a sense of interest to explore areas within the county; any feedback is welcomed.

Director Zane asked about the budget for the air district grant.

Ms. Glanton responded the awards are from $100,000 to $300,000.

Director Zane further commented that other counties in the Bay Area look to the RCPA, since no other agencies like the RCPA exist.

Chair Russell commented on the PG&E Better Together Resilient Communities Grant with regards to the heat index of Cloverdale.

Chair Russell wondered the possibility of developing a one-stop resource for community organizations, while expressing the apprehension residents, who needs the resource during extreme heat, have and are nervous of taking their young children and the elderly to facilities where homeless individuals are as well.

Furthermore, Chair Russell commented on the challenges in funding community centers during extreme heat; who will be staffing, which venue will be use, etc.

B. SCTA Items

4.2. SCTA Planning

4.2.1. Transit – FY18/19 Coordinated Claim for Transit (ACTION)*

Dana Turrey described the FY 18/19 Coordinated Claim for transit funding. The Coordinated Claim is adopted each year and the funds are the primary sources for operating revenue in transit funding.

A Coordinated Claim is required since transit operations cross multiple jurisdictions. Additionally, the Coordinated Claim serves as a bases for the annual request, since transit funding fluctuates over the year, to MTC for STA and TDA funding.

This year’s Coordinated Claim funding a significant boost in STA funds due to Senate Bill-1.

7

Staff recommends developing an updated framework to include SMART for next year’s Coordinated Claim.

Furthermore, the Coordinated Claim was recommended for approval by the SCTA Board of Directors by the Transit-Technical Advisory Committee and Transit Paratransit Coordination Committee.

The Coordinated Claim was adopted unanimously following a motion by Director Coursey, and a second by Director Rabbitt.

4.2.2. Activities Report – (REPORT)*

Janet Spilman reported to the Board of Directors on items that are currently being worked on that may or may not show up before the Board at a given time.

Generally speaking, the planning section is “planning to plan” on the mentioned items, such as the Transit Integration and Efficiency Study and Bicycle and Pedestrian Planning.

Planning and programming is annual funding (Transportation Development Act, Article 3; Transportation for Clean Air Fund) and will be presented to the Board in the next month.

Program management is relatively new and include the Transportation Demand Management programs, car share (Zipcar), Safe Routes to School (SRTS), and bike share grants. These are at various stages of implementations, such as SRTS is starting and a Request for Proposals will be issued next month.

Data management and forecasting has expanded beyond simple travel modelling to tracking Sonoma County development pending and permitted data bases for the Sonoma County Travel Model and Urban Footprint.

Coordination and outreach, namely the advisory committees, which reviews the items discussed in the above categories.

Ms. Smith explained the areas in Sonoma County that the CTC commissioners will view.

Director Mackenzie commented the CTC Town Hall is an excellent opportunity for Sonoma County, with the CTC witnessing the importance of the projects underway and those that will be underway in the county. Director Mackenzie commented that the Petaluma River Bridge project benefitted from the last time Sonoma hosted the CTC.

James Cameron provided a brief highway report.

MSN B-3 San Antonio Creek Bridge: The next traffic switch for southbound traffic onto the new bridge is scheduled for April, being weather dependent. Both directions of traffic on the new bridge are targeted for the end of 2018.

Seana Gause reported to the Board of Directors the Environmental Impact Report for the Highway 121/116 improvements has been signed and approved and are anticipating the project report.

Furthermore, the new SHOPP report included with the Highway Report has been updated by Caltrans.

Vice Chair Gorin wondered about the property owners in the area, the impacts of the projects and commented on the potential unsafe traffic conditions heading south.

Staff Report To: Sonoma County Transportation Authority

From: James R. Cameron, Director of Projects and Programming

Item: 3.2 – Measure M - Airport Blvd Landscaping Project, County of Sonoma Cooperative Agreement M30210-05-A6, approval and appropriation shift.

Date: May 14, 2018

Issue:

Shall the Board approve cooperative agreements amendment M30210-05-A6 with the County of Sonoma; and subsequently, shall the Board approve the transfer the unspent portion of previous appropriation balance from Design to Construction support for the Airport Blvd Interchange Landscaping Project (Phase 4A)?

Background:

On March 27, 2017, the SCTA Board approved the cooperative agreement amendment M30210-06-A5 and appropriation for the construction phase of the Airport Blvd Interchange Landscaping Project. The project is included in the Measure M Local Street Projects (LSP) Airport Boulevard Improvement Project, which consists of five phases. See attached map for locations of various phases.

Phase 4A Landscaping for the Airport Boulevard and Highway 101 interchange is required for visual mitigation, following the interchange improvements. The total landscaping project is estimated to be $1,314,000, of which the funding plan includes both LSP and Highway 101 funds. This project is included as part of the 2014 Highway 101 Landscaping Plan.

Pursuant to the Strategic Plan and the associated cooperative funding agreement, each project sponsor must submit an appropriation request (attached) to initiate spending of Measure M funding for the fiscal year in which the funds are programmed. The County of Sonoma had an appropriation request for $569,000 approved by this Board in March of 2014 for activities associated with the design phase of the landscaping project. The design phase is now complete and the County has submitted a request (attached) dated April 24, 2018, to shift the remaining funds to another developmental phase (Construction Support).

Staff Report To: RCPA Board of Directors

From: Julian Ruzzier-Gaul, CivicSpark Fellow

Item: 4.1.1 – Transportation, Livestock & Fertilizer Inventory, and Wastewater, Updates

Date: May 14, 2018

Issue:

Information only.

Background:

Greenhouse Gas Inventory

Tracking greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions data and trends is critical to understanding the role local communities play in reducing GHG emissions while planning for growth and prosperity. Through the Climate Action 2020 project, the RCPA evaluated historic, baseline, and future emissions in Sonoma County using ICLEI’s U.S. Community Protocol for Accounting and Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions.

Historic data revealed a decline in total and per capita emissions since 1990, but the forecasts showed that in the absence of new actions, local GHG emissions will again rise. The work of the RCPA, its members, and partners, focuses on driving a continued downward trajectory in community-wide emissions, towards the long-term goal of 80% below 1990 levels by 2050.

The RCPA recently released a snapshot of countywide emissions for 2015. Staff will finish and release a comprehensive update to the community-wide GHG inventory, with jurisdiction specific findings, this summer. RCPA staff provided an update on the status of GHG emissions from water conveyance and solid waste processing in March and an update on emissions from building energy use in February.

This report includes an overview of information included in the snapshot of countywide emissions for 2015 along with specific findings from the following emissions sectors: Transportation, Livestock & Fertilizer, and Wastewater Treatment. Further detail and graphics are in the attached fact sheets.

Preliminary 2015 GHG Inventory Findings

The year 2015 is an important milestone as the midway point between the 2010 baseline inventory and the short-term emissions reduction target of 25% below 1990 levels by 2020. According to our findings, emissions in 2015 remain 9% below 1990 levels, while population grew about 4% and gross domestic product (GDP) increased 22%. The decoupling of GDP and population growth from emissions shows that Sonoma County’s economy continues to become more sustainable.

While the increases in emissions from both Livestock and Fertilizer and Wastewater Treatment are largely attributed to better monitoring and updated methodologies, the RCPA is working with partners to better understand and address the upward trends in emissions from the Transportation and Solid Waste sectors shown in this snapshot. The RCPA is beginning to work with partners to implement actions outlined in the recently released Shift Sonoma County Plan, which defines and evaluates strategies to shift transportation away from single occupant vehicles towards, cleaner, healthier and more efficient modes of transportation. The RCPA is also working with the Sonoma County Waste Management Agency to help guide Sonoma County towards zero waste standards. A detailed 2015 greenhouse gas inventory update will be available this summer. This update will include emissions data specific for each jurisdiction in Sonoma County. Transportation Sector Analysis

Transportation is the largest source of emissions for the county. Emissions from On-Road Transportation and Off-Road Transportation & Equipment increased from 55% in 2010 to 61% of countywide emissions in 2015. We speculate that this increase resulted primarily from Sonoma County’s population increase (4%) and economic growth (22% increase in gross domestic product). Further detail is below.

• Total emissions from the transportation sector increased approximately 237,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2e) from 2010 to 2015. A stable economy paired with continued population growth often results in more individuals driving cars.

• Countywide vehicle miles traveled (VMT) increased by about 260,000 daily miles when comparing 2010 to 2015 but daily per capita VMT slightly decreased. Population increased at a higher rate than the daily miles driven by Sonoma County community members - per capita daily VMT was 23.11 in 2010 and 22.8 in 2015 countywide.

Livestock & Fertilizer Sector Analysis

The Livestock & Fertilizer sector is the third-largest source of emissions in Sonoma County overall, after emissions from transportation and building energy use. Emissions from livestock and fertilizer use in the unincorporated county increased from 268,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2e) in 2010 to 360,000 MTCO2e in 2015. Further detail is below.

• Updates to methods for converting livestock and fertilizer activity data to emissions contributed to increased emissions in the county. The RCPA uses reporting information from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s annual Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas emissions and Sink. This inventory update uses information from the 2016 version, which includes higher emissions factors and quantification values for converting livestock and manure values to greenhouse gas emissions.

• The increased population of beef cows (+3,279), poultry (+1,541,024), and sheep (+13,818) between 2010 and 2015 contributed to increased emissions from this sector. The population of chickens in the county substantially increased from a resurgence in backyard egg production and an increase in commercial poultry breeding.

• The majority of emissions from Livestock & Fertilizer come from livestock operations (dairy and beef cows). These emissions result from livestock enteric fermentation (digestion) and the management of livestock manure.

Wastewater Treatment Sector Analysis

Countywide emissions from wastewater treatment increased from 14,500 MTCO2e in 2010 to approximately 16,000 MTCO2e in 2015. This increase is primarily attributed to better monitoring and reporting practices implemented at the wastewater treatment plants used by Sonoma County jurisdictions. Further detail is below.

• Facilities managed by the Water Agency in the unincorporated county treat the wastewater of about 25% of the county’s population. This results in the allocation of more emissions from wastewater treatment to the unincorporated county (shown in the attached factsheet)

• Emissions from Cloverdale’s wastewater treatment facility substantially decreased from the implementation of better wastewater treatment methods.

• In 2010, the Santa Rosa Wastewater Treatment Facility under-reported the daily load of nitrogen being released at the facility. The updated 2015 inventory includes the correct daily nitrogen load released, as reported by Santa Rosa’s wastewater treatment superintendent

TRANSPORTATION

Transportation is the largest source of emissions for the county. Emissions from on-road transportation and off-road transportation & equipment increased from 55% in 2010 to 61% of countywide emissions in 2015. This increase resulted primarily from emissions associated with an increase in Sonoma County’s population (4%) and increased economic growth (22% increase in GDP).

Transportation & Land Use Goals and Actions

GHG Reduction Target 426,000 MTCO2e

Reduce travel demand/focused growth 4,693 Shift to low-carbon transportation 43,058 Increased vehicle and equipment fuel efficiency 358,720 Shift to low-carbon fuels in vehicles and equipment 19,413 Reduce idling 163

Total emissions from the transportation sector increased approximately 237,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2e) from 2010 to 2015. A stable economy paired with continual population growth often results in more individuals driving fuel combustion cars.

Per capita emissions similarly increased.

Total emissions increased in each jurisdiction.

23

Daily VMT increased in all jurisdictions but the unincorporated county.

Per capita daily VMT increased in each jurisdiction but the unincorporated county.

Countywide vehicle miles traveled (VMT) increased by about 260,000 daily miles when comparing 2010 to 2015 but daily per capita VMT slightly decreased.

Population increased at a higher rate than the daily miles driven by Sonoma County community members - per capita daily VMT was 23.11 in 2010 and 22.8 in 2015 countywide.

What’s Next

The Board recently adopted the Shift Sonoma County Plan, which defines and evaluates strategies to shift transportation choices away from single occupant vehicles. The Plan explores barriers, opportunities, and actions to implement (or expand the use of car-share, bike-share, transportation demand management measures, and electric vehicles.

The Sonoma County Transportation Authority’s Comprehensive Transportation Plan provides a 25-year transportation vision for Sonoma County. Comprehensive Transportation Plan goals include:

• Maintaining the current transportation system • Reducing traffic congestion • Reducing GHG emissions • Improving safety and health • Promoting economic vitally.

The RCPA will continue to work with partners to implement policies and solutions to transition the trend in transportation emissions downward.

24

LIVESTOCK & FERTILIZER

Livestock and Fertilizer emissions are the third-largest source of emissions in Sonoma County overall (10%), after emissions from transportation (61%) and building energy use (23%). Emissions from livestock and fertilizer use in the unincorporated county increased from 268,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2e) to 360,000 MTCO2e from 2010 to 2015.

Livestock & Fertilizer Goals and Actions

GHG Reduction Target 1,800 MTCO2e

Reduce emissions from dairy/livestock Not quantified Operations Reduce emissions from fertilizer 1,759

Updates to methods for converting livestock and fertilizer activity data to emissions contributed to increased emissions in the county. The RCPA uses reporting information from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s annual Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas emissions and Sink. This inventory update uses information from the 2016 version, which includes higher emissions factors and quantification values for converting livestock and manure values to greenhouse gas emissions.

The increased population of beef cows (+3,279), poultry (+1,541,024), and sheep (+13,818) from 2010 to 2015 also contributed to increased livestock & fertilizer emissions. The population of chickens in the county saw a substantial increase resulting from a resurgence in backyard egg production and increase in commercial poultry breeding.

Emissions from all livestock, excluding swine, increased.

25

Changes in per capita emissions also varied by jurisdiction.

WASTEWATER Countywide emissions from wastewater treatment increased from 14,500 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2e) to approximately 16,000 MTCO2e from 2010 to 2015. This increase results largely from better monitoring and reporting practices implemented at the wastewater treatment plants utilized by Sonoma County jurisdictions.

Water & Wastewater Goals and Actions

GHG Reduction Target 22,600 MTCO2e Reduce water consumption 19,217 Use more recycled water and grey water 75 Improve the efficiency of water 759 and wastewater infrastructure Use more renewable energy in 2,556 Water and wastewater systems

Changes in total emissions from wastewater treatment varied by jurisdiction.

Facilities managed by the Water Agency in the unincorporated county treat the wastewater of about 25% of the county’s population. This results in the allocation of more emissions from wastewater treatment to the unincorporated county.

In 2010, the Santa Rosa Wastewater Treatment Facility under-reported the daily load of nitrogen being released at the facility. The updated 2015 inventory includes the correct daily nitrogen load released, as reported by Santa Rosa’s wastewater treatment superintendent

Background:

Planning and Coordination

RCPA Coordination Committee

The April Coordination Committee featured a presentation on the Bay Area Greenprint Tool and the Vital Lands Initiative.

Bay Area Greenprint is the first regional planning tool in the Bay Area to combine over 150 datasets and deliver actionable metrics through modern, rapid reporting technology to serve local and regional planners. Improving access to data that describe a full range of open space values and benefits to communities to enhance local and regional land use and transportation planning is the goal of the Bay Area Greenprint. The Greenprint aggregates geographic data such as areas of high biological carbon storage, areas that reduce natural hazard risks, areas that contribute to local water supplies, important wildlife habitat priorities, and other benefits of natural and working lands and delivers custom, data-driven reports for your area of interest. The Greenprint is free and open for all to use at www.bayareagreenprint.org.

The Vital Lands Initiative is a comprehensive plan that will guide the work of Sonoma County Ag + Open Space for the next 15 years. Building on 27+ years of successful land conservation work, the initiative will outline strategies for protecting our vital open space lands to preserve agriculture, natural resources, recreation, scenic vistas, greenbelt areas, and urban open space. Ag + Open Space is interested in receiving feedback on a preliminary draft, which will be presented to the Board of Directors in late May. The draft plan can be found at www.sonomaopenspace.org/projects/vital-lands-initiative/.

27

Climate Action Staff Working Group

The Staff Working Group will next meet on May 30th to discuss priority climate actions and barriers to implementation.

Sonoma County Zero Waste Task Force

RCPA staff continued to work with the Zero Waste Task Force on drafting a Zero Waste Policy for Sonoma County Cities and County for consideration. Feedback from the RCPA April Board meeting has been incorporated into the updated draft.

Fire Recovery

The Bay Area Air Quality Management District, Pacific Gas and Electric Company, and Sonoma Clean Power (SCP) have partnered to offer an integrated incentive program that gives customers access to multiple funding sources through one application process. Advanced energy rebuild incentives are available for property owners in Sonoma and Mendocino counties who are rebuilding homes lost in the October 2017 wildfires. Fire survivors can receive up to $17,500 in incentives for including energy efficient features and equipment, renewable energy systems, electric vehicle charging stations, and water-efficient landscaping design. https://sonomacleanpower.org/advancedenergyrebuild/

RCPA staff continue to assist government and community partners with information resources and staff support for recovery and planning needs. Information provided by the RCPA staff has contributed to a green building page on the Sonoma County Recovers Website: https://www.sonomacountyrecovers.org/green-building-incentives-resources/

Electric Vehicle Coordination

Staff continues to meet with SCP staff bi-weekly to coordinate on electric vehicle and charging infrastructure programs.

Sonoma County Resiliency Charging Scenarios

SCTA and RCPA are assisting in planning work to identify locations for EV charging stations that could also assist in emergency evacuation and recovery. PG&E is considering a short-term (i.e. one year) project with a maximum budget of $4M to “leverage ongoing rebuilding efforts in disaster-affected areas within PG&E service territory” to address the limited EV charging infrastructure in Sonoma County. The project aims to develop EV charging that is: 1) Resilient and widespread to support residents 2) located in critical areas to support emergency and evacuation operations.

In 2017, the SCTA and RCPA developed a countywide EV Charging Infrastructure Siting Framework in order to inform EV charging infrastructure investment for local governments, EV service providers, utilities, employers and developers. The recommended level of public and workplace charging from the framework reflect a goal of 100,000 electric vehicles operating in Sonoma County by 2030. In order to better inform the siting of potential resilient charging stations, the SCTA and RCPA have developed detailed scenarios showing potential resilient charging sites based on a framework,

28

developed by the Shift team. These scenarios are informing PG&E’s project design and application to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) that they will submit at the end of May. An interactive map displaying information from the Shift EV Charging Infrastructure Siting Framework, fire risk zones and evacuation centers can be found online: http://arcg.is/1unnGT

Energy Program Coordination

Staff continues to meet with Energy and Sustainability Division staff monthly to coordinate events and program details relating to energy programs.

Implementation

Greenhouse Gas Inventory

The RCPA is currently updating the community-wide greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory, based on 2015 data. Staff has previously presented updates from building energy use, water conveyance, and solid waste. Staff released an initial inventory in mid-April.

Bay Area Regional Energy Network

Proposed Decision on Business Plan

The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) released the Proposed Decision on the BayREN Business Plan for 2018-2025 in April. The Proposed Decision approved BayREN’s existing programs, the expanded commercial programs proposal, and increased budget request (they did not add the administrative budgets to the total, which we think might have been in error.). BayREN filed reply comments including asking for the budget for administration and evaluation, measurement and verification be restored. The full Commission will vote on the Decision soon, perhaps in May.

The proposed approval by the CPUC includes expanding the Water Bill Savings on-bill financing program to a regional program model to increase access to capital and facilitate streamlined participation by municipal water utilities in the Bay Area. The RCPA has been the lead entity for the region on the Water Bill Savings program. The administrative budget (which was not included in the Proposed Decision) includes a funding request for the RCPA to hire a staff position to support the expansion of the proposed activities. If funded, the position will recruit Partner Utilities to the Regional program model and ensure program designs and model tariffs meet the needs of all appropriate customer classes. BayREN has submitted comments to include the administrative budget in the approval. RCPA staff will continue to follow the regulatory process and program budget requests.

2017 Energy Efficiency Annual Report

BayREN has published the attached Annual Report, listing highlights and achievements of the programs. To date, BayREN programs have provided over $33 million in incentives to Bay Area property owners, and savings of 12 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) and 5 million therms.

The BayREN Home Upgrade Advisors handled a total of 123 new leads in March, enrolled 17 new qualified accounts, and tracked 7 completed Home Upgrade projects. In addition, Advisors made 35 complementary program referrals to 14 different programs, bringing the total number of complementary program referrals to 10,392 through March 31st, 2018.

Bay Area Multifamily Building Enhancement Program

The Bay Area Multifamily Building Enhancement Program is now offering Resiliency Technical Assistance Pilot for 5-10 multifamily properties in Sonoma County. Property owners will receive relevant resiliency findings and recommendations in the energy audit report. RCPA staff held a workshop for multifamily property owners and managers on April 17th in Santa Rosa.

Codes and Standards

RCPA staff works with BayREN to support the efforts of local residents, businesses, and governments to help buildings comply with energy code and achieve zero net carbon emissions. RCPA staff continues to attend Redwood Empire Association of Code Officials (REACO) monthly meetings and support energy code training.

Water Bill Savings Program

RCPA staff works with BayREN staff to support the development of a regional water bill savings program, an on-bill repayment of efficiency retrofits that the RCPA has helped to pioneer in

30

California, enabled by the Water Bill Savings Act (SB 564 – McGuire). RCPA staff is working with Grounded Research and Consulting team who is conducting a Process Evaluation Study on the Water Bill Savings Program. As per the proposed decision by the CPUC, the Water Bill Savings Program will begin work to design and structure a regional program.

Funding

BAAQMD Climate Protection Grant Program

In support of its 2017 Clean Air Plan, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District is launching a one-time Climate Protection Grant Program to accelerate the implementation of GHG reductions in communities across the Bay Area. The grant program will be offered to local governments, and will fund projects in two program areas: reducing GHGs from existing buildings and fostering innovative strategies (in multiple sectors). Applications are due on May 11.

RCPA staff continues to reach out to potential partners to discuss opportunities that would be competitive for this grant program. We are currently working with stakeholders to design and vet multiple ideas relating to food waste, on bill financing for energy efficiency and trip reduction programs.

BayREN 2017 Annual Report | Page 3

Executive Summary

The San Francisco Bay Area Regional Energy Network (BayREN) is a

collaboration of the nine counties that make up the Bay Area. Led by

the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), BayREN is a

program administrator (PA) that implements effective energy saving

programs on a regional level and draws on the expertise, experience,

and proven track record of Bay Area local governments to develop

and administer successful energy efficiency, climate, resource, and

sustainability programs.

BayREN is funded by California utility ratepayers under the auspices

of the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), as well as

through grants and funding from member agencies, other state and

federal agencies, and foundations. One of only two Regional Energy

Networks in the state, BayREN represents 20% of the state’s

population.

Since its inception, BayREN has been addressing the three areas

indicated by CPUC Decision 12-11-015 in the formation and

implementation of the RENs: filling gaps that the investor-owned

utilities (IOUs) are not serving; developing programs for hard-to-

reach markets; and piloting new approaches to programs that can

potentially scale and offer innovative avenues to energy savings.

BayREN’s services complement and supplement IOU programs, fills

gaps, and finds synergies among approaches to maximize

opportunities for customers and other market actors. For example,

BayREN provides a regional solution that better connects to local

communities and conditions than is typically possible from a large

utility. In addition, the BayREN provides services across jurisdictions

that municipal-only programs cannot achieve.

BayREN’s governance is through the “Coordinating Circle,” which

includes representation from ABAG and all nine Bay Area counties.

Each BayREN member agency designates a voting member to the

Coordinating Circle. This body makes decisions regarding overall

policy, high-level programmatic issues, and budgets.

To date, BayREN programs have provided over $33 million in

incentives to Bay Area property owners, and savings of 12 million kWh and 5 million therms. BayREN has

enhanced the typical incentive program model with customer-focused technical assistance, innovative

financing, marketing and outreach, and capacity building services that improve the uptake, satisfaction, and

effectiveness of the incentives. BayREN programs saw continued success in 2017 as highlighted in this report.

BayREN’s offers services in the following four key program areas:

• Single Family Home Upgrade. BayREN is the exclusive implementer of Energy Upgrade California®

Home Upgrade Program in the nine Bay Area counties. As part of this program, BayREN developed the

Home Upgrade Advisor, a phone-based service that works with both contractors and home owners. The

Advisor service has resulted in more robust uptake in the Home Upgrade program and more

leads to the Advanced Home Upgrade Program. BayREN member agencies leverage their experience

with residential programs to educate homeowners, recruit and train installation contractors, and

enhance participation in Home Upgrade.

• Multifamily Upgrade. This model program offers no-cost technical assistance and a per-unit rebate for

multiple measure energy upgrade scopes that save a minimum percentage of the whole building’s

energy usage. Unlike the IOU programs that focus on tenants, this program engages property owners

over the long-term, helping them plan and undertake upgrades over extended periods.

• Codes and Standards. BayREN leverages its unique relationship with local governments to build local

capacity, as well as to measure, monitor, and improve compliance with energy codes, and to develop

energy efficiency policies and ordinances.

• Financing:

o Multifamily Capital Advance. BayREN enables deep energy upgrades by offering no-interest

capital for co-financing through multifamily lenders, lowering the cost of capital for property

owners while maintaining a repaid pool of funds for future program cycles.

o Commercial PACE. C-PACE provides channel outreach, education, and ongoing support

services to enable contractors to fully integrate the compelling business case for C-PACE

financing into their proposal and project development process. Moreover, the program provides

personalized advisory services to building owners considering energy efficiency

improvements, including coordination with PACE capital providers to drive comprehensive

energy efficiency projects that building owners are unable to self-fund.

o The Water Bill Savings Program, formally known as Pay as You Save ® (PAYS®). This

program offering is an innovative water-energy nexus pilot to provide technical assistance and

program design to Bay Area municipal water utilities seeking to offer on-water-bill financing to

facilitate water utility customers’ installation of water efficiency and energy efficiency

improvements. This program has influence in multiple markets, including renters and low-

income housing, and offers customers a simple and attractive path to install energy- and water-

saving technologies with no up-front cost.

2017 Energy Efficiency Programs Overview

Single Family Home Upgrade Program

Program Description

BayREN is the exclusive implementer of the Home Upgrade Program

within the nine Bay Area counties. Home Upgrade is a statewide,

prescriptive incentive program that eliminates the need for energy

modeling and reduces the number of homeowner interactions to

demystify the whole house energy efficiency upgrade approach.

Home Upgrade offers a balanced approach intended to produce a

high volume of energy efficiency upgrades and energy savings while

maintaining a reasonable level of technical rigor and quality

assurance.

All projects must be performed by an Energy Upgrade California®

Home Upgrade Participating Contractor. BayREN maintains a strong

commitment to its Participating Contractors, the driving force of the

program. Each Participating Contractor is assigned to a personal

Account Manager, who is available to assist with any programmatic

questions (e.g., paperwork, eligibility), training needs, and guidance

on business best practices. Participating Contractors find the

personalized assistance helpful and many are now incorporating

home performance installations into their business models for the

first time.

BayREN’s Home Upgrade Program provides many “non-resource”

benefits including:

Multi-tiered Marketing, Education, and Outreach Campaign

Home Upgrade is supported by a Marketing, Education, and

Outreach (ME&O) campaign implemented on both the regional and

local level. As trusted messengers within our local communities,

each BayREN member agency is responsible for local marketing

activities. While tactics vary from county to county depending on the

specific needs of the jurisdiction, they primarily include a mix of

homeowner workshops, presentations to community groups, tabling

at community events, door-to-door canvassing, and local media

buys/direct mail. Counties also engage with their local Participating Contractors to include them in outreach

2017 Key Single Family Goals

events. As an Energy Upgrade California program implementer, BayREN works closely with the Statewide

ME&O administrator to coordinate marketing efforts.

Advanced Home Upgrade Assessment Incentive

In addition to implementing Home Upgrade, BayREN contributes significantly to PG&E’s implementation of

Advanced Home Upgrade in our shared service territory by providing a $300 Assessment Incentive to help

offset the cost to the homeowner of the requisite comprehensive energy assessment. This added incentive

reduces the barrier-to-entry for customers interested in this program pathway.

Home Energy Score

The Regional Home Energy Score (HEScore) Program is a low-cost asset-rating program that engages

contractors, home inspectors, and raters to offer Home Energy Scores in the Bay Area. HEScore provides

training and mentoring for qualified Assessors, marketing and outreach campaigns, and the creation of a

customized energy efficiency recommendations report that aligns with the Home Upgrade Program. Along

with the Score and a customized report, the Single Family Program provides homeowners with associated

energy and cost saving estimates, and referrals to home upgrade programs, incentives, and financing tools.

HEScore also supports the implementation of local policy initiatives like the City of Berkeley’s Energy Saving

Ordinance and the City of Albany’s HEScore pilot program. There was significant uptake in both the number of

Assessors trained on HEScore and homes scored in 2017.

Energy Advisor Service

The Energy Advisor offers both consumer- and contractor-facing services for ongoing support and education

to help drive program participation and deeper energy savings. Although not all participants are interested in

Home Upgrade, Advisors take a consultative approach to identify additional programs and/or services that

support the homeowner’s goals of becoming more efficient, including complementary program referrals to

various energy and water efficiency programs in the Bay Area such as those offered by PG&E, Marin Clean

Energy, Energy Watch partnerships, and others.

Program Performance and Major Accomplishments

The program maintained consistent performance in 2017. Accomplishments include:

• Successful implementation of program changes to manage project volume and incentive budget.

• 1,585 Home Upgrade projects completed.

• 84 Participating Contractors who submitted at least one project, correlating to an estimated 63 jobs

created1.

Opportunities in 2018 and Beyond

To improve program outcomes and increase participation of single family residents, property owners, and

contractors in BayREN residential program, while also addressing hard-to-reach markets and gaps in program

delivery, BayREN will introduce the following changes and improvements for 2018:

• Deploy a Smart Communicating Thermostat measure kicker for Home Upgrade projects to achieve

greater savings and customer satisfaction by addressing occupant behavior at the same time as

envelope and HVAC upgrades, as recommended in the 2015 Home Upgrade Impact Evaluation.

• Deploy a Participating Contractor Calendar for contractors, raters, and assessors to remove barriers to

identifying training opportunities and support workforce development.

• Further Energy Advisor support for Bay Area customers unable to assume the high costs of the Home

Upgrade Program to improve customer satisfaction, drive complementary program participation, and to

40

BayREN 2017 Annual Report | Page 9

help homeowners identify affordable improvements that meet their needs.

• Test various energy data management tools to overcome barriers related to accessing customer meter

data, customer targeting, analyzing contractor performance, and to improve behavioral savings and

plug load management as recommended in the 2015 Home Upgrade Program Impact Evaluation.

• Align measure requirements with the latest version of the Home Upgrade work paper to address Title

24 updates, Energy Division Dispositions, and changes to measure costs.

• Introduce Home Upgrade data collection points to identify whether area or equipment was added to

the home, addressing best practice recommendations from the 2015 Home Upgrade Program Impact

Evaluation.

As described in BayREN’s Energy Efficiency Business Plan2, BayREN plans to transition out of the Home Upgrade

Program while building on successful elements and experience from the past four years to introduce a more

affordable program and incremental approach to whole house efficiency for moderate income homeowners

and renters, leveraging the Home Upgrade Advisor to enable the customer journey. While enacting the

improvements described above for the 2018 program year, BayREN will prepare to transition to a new single

family program, following the CPUC’s Business Plan approval. Preparations include continued market research

and planning for a program that provides wrap-around services, support, and financing to drive program

adoption and performance through properly aligned incentives, low-cost introductory efficiency services, and

improved equitable access to services and upgrades.

Bay Area Multifamily Building Enhancement Program (BAMBE)

Program Description

BayREN offers the Bay Area Multifamily Building Enhancements

Program (BAMBE) throughout the nine-county Bay Area. BAMBE fills

an existing program gap by providing a “middle of the road”

participation path for multifamily building owners. It achieves

deeper and more customized savings than direct install or single

measure programs, but does entail the up-front cost of the

investment-grade energy assessment associated with a whole-

building performance program. The overwhelmingly positive

response from the multifamily sector shows that the program has

succeeded in filling this gap and taps into previously elusive savings

potential. Property owners report that the streamlined and

customized technical assistance and multiple-measure incentive

motivates them to take a holistic approach to energy efficiency

planning. BayREN continues to refine BAMBE to encourage greater

energy savings while continuing to appeal to a wide range of the

market. Participant building types represent the diverse Bay Area

multifamily market with respect to size, age, location, affordability,

and ownership types.

Program Performance and Major Accomplishments

BAMBE has maintained its popularity since inception in 2013, and has provided technical assistance to more

than 76,500 units. Over 26,000 units have been upgraded, receiving more than $19,500,000 in rebates for a

total of 383 projects. In 2017, the goals for completed projects and the target for technical assistance was

exceeded. The program demonstrates an effective model for achieving multiple-measure upgrades in every

segment of this hard-to-reach sector. The portfolio of completed projects is as diverse as the housing stock.

Major accomplishments for 2017 include:

• Technical assistance provided to more than 16,000 units.

• Approximately 7,350 units’ worth of incentives reserved:

o 64 projects, representing 5,195 units, completed upgrades receiving $3,896,250 in incentives.

o Average project size was 81 units and average estimated energy savings per project was 16%.

o Average estimated energy savings for completed project was 471 kWh and 30 Therms per unit.

• Over 2,998 units referred to other multifamily incentive programs in the Bay Area.

• Outreach efforts includes 7 Workshops and 3 Industry Events:

2017 Key Multifamily Goals

• Incentivize 5,000 dwelling-units worth

of upgrades

• Provide technical assistance to

develop a customized scope of work,

and encourage property owners to

install whole house measures that go

beyond the status quo

• Offer a simple, flat incentive of $750

per unit on multiple measures saving

15% or more of the whole building’s

energy usage

• Provide referral assistance to other

multifamily incentive programs in the

Bay Area that are better suited

• Organize and facilitate outreach

events and meetings across BayREN

territory

42

BayREN 2017 Annual Report | Page 11

o 115 building owners or property managers attended a workshop.

o 47 attendees completed a program interest form.

• 11 mailer campaigns conducted throughout the region.

• Program participants recognized at 2 local government events.

• Coverage of the program in 3 issues of a publication (4 articles and 1 advertisement).

Opportunities in 2018 and Beyond

As detailed in the Business Plan, BayREN plans to continue BAMBE in the short- to mid-term until a substantial

portion of the multifamily market has been reached. From the more than 380 properties that have participated

in BAMBE, BayREN has gained valuable insight into how to evolve the program to target the deep energy

savings required to meet California’s efficiency and climate goals. New and complementary strategies will be

added to create long-term relationships with participants. As the current program reaches substantial market

share, BayREN will begin to reduce and sunset the rebates as currently structured, replacing them in the mid-

to long-term with other market drivers such as green labeling, local government policies, and financing.

Incentives and technical assistance will then be restructured to support these mid- to long-term market drivers.

Multifamily Capital Advance Program

Program Description

The Multifamily Capital Advance Program (BAMCAP) advances up to 50% of the total loan principal related to

the costs of approved energy efficiency measures, at 0% interest rate to participating lenders. This arrangement

results in an effective interest rate that is as low as half of the lender’s interest rate, significantly reducing the

cost of capital for the property owner. The program is designed to work within the larger multifamily program

and minimize additional administration by leveraging the scope development and quality assurance provided

by BayREN multifamily subprogram or similar programs. BAMCAP leverages lenders’ existing infrastructure and

procedures, and utilizes an open market model to better serve the multifamily sector, which typically has

limitations on supplemental loans and limited flexibility in the choice of lenders.

2017 Goals and Strategies

• Continue to close deals and expand the roster of participating lenders

• Assess the program’s ability to serve the diverse range of multifamily properties and identify any

remaining gaps

Program Performance and Major Accomplishments

• Participated in 4 loans totaling $1,060,000 of BayREN capital

• Projects served include four non-profit affordable housing projects

Opportunities in 2018 and Beyond

In 2017, BayREN conducted an in-depth analysis of the types of projects best served by BAMCAP, and

identified ways to fill remaining gaps. In 2018, BAMCAP will launch a Lender Referral Service to determine if

energy efficiency financing products that exist in the market can meet the needs of property owners looking to

finance amounts under $100,000. The service aims to simplify the financing decision making process for

property owners and reduce transaction costs for lenders by providing access to a pipeline of finance-ready

energy efficiency projects.

BayREN 2017 Annual Report | Page 13

Codes and Standards

Program Description

The Codes and Standards Program leverages the expertise and

direct alliances among local governments to offer an integrated

process that reflects needs specific to the Bay Area for:

• Enhancing the enforcement of energy, water, and green

building codes.

• Establishing and institutionalizing measurement of code

compliance.

• Sharing expertise and best practices on the development of

reach codes and working to align policies and enforcement

across jurisdictions.

• Preparing to implement future code updates.

Program Performance and Major Accomplishments

In 2017, the Codes and Standards Program delivered 43 classroom

training sessions related to Title 24, Part 6 standards to 495 building

professionals, primarily local building department staff, across the

region. The program also closely collaborated with the City of San

Jose to develop a new training session for building professionals on

ZNE-related topics in relation to residential new construction.

The BayREN team continued to develop and demonstrate potential

opportunities for and benefits of electronic compliance enhancement tools (eTools), including:

• The CodeCycle platform assessed T24 commercial lighting compliance for 78 projects, representing

more than one million square feet of building space, providing improved compliance with the complex

requirements of this portion of the Code.

• In close collaboration with Contra Costa County, the BayREN team updated the Energy Code Permit

Guide eTool, which is designed to improve the user experience for homeowners, and developed a new

fenestration module, (a hot water heater module was developed previously).

Throughout 2017, the Codes and Standards team collaborated with the California Energy Commission,

Statewide IOU Reach Code Team, and the Bay Area Regional Collaborative (BARC) to support local adoption of

ordinances that exceed statewide minimum requirements. As part of this collaboration, BayREN participated in

regional and statewide reach code working groups, reviewed IOU-developed cost-effectiveness studies,

provided policy support to local governments, and facilitated a “Regional Forum” on the topic of a mandatory

solar photovoltaic ordinance.

2017 Key Codes and Standards

Goals

• Deliver 30 classroom training sessions,

including the newly developed session

on ZNE Residential New Construction,

with 300 attendees

• Continue to provide Permit Guides to

local building departments and

encourage additional jurisdictions to

use the guides

• Expand work with Compliance

governments to support adoption of

local energy ordinances

• Assist local jurisdictions in reviewing

and commenting on proposed

changes to Title 24 Part 6 Standards

45

BayREN 2017 Annual Report | Page 14

Overall, the Codes and Standards Program facilitated four “Regional Forums” that drew approximately 279

attendees. Topics included:

• Household Electrification as a Pathway to On-site ZNE.

• Local Mandatory Solar Ordinance as a Pathway for New Residential ZNE Construction.

• Municipal Buildings Leading by Example.

• Matching Supply with Demand.

BayREN’s Municipal Zero Net Energy Technical Assistance Subprogram provided ZNE-related design assistance

for 6 projects of various municipal building types, including recreation centers, animal shelters, youth centers,

and emergency dispatch centers. Also in support of municipal building energy performance, the BayREN team

improved the Energy Performance Targeting and Verification Calculator and developed Zero Energy

Performance Index (zEPI) methodologies for additional municipal buildings types, including adult education

centers, childcare centers, libraries, medical clinics, police/fire stations, and recreation centers. San Francisco

updated its Green Building Requirements for city buildings in 2017 to require use of the zEPI tool.

Opportunities in 2018 and Beyond

As detailed in the Business Plan, the Codes & Standards Program will be further developed, based upon

feedback from key program stakeholders and partners including Bay Area building professionals, building

departments, chapters of the International Code Council (ICC), Bay Area planning and policy agencies, the

Statewide IOU Codes & Standards Team, the California Energy Commission, and the California Building Officials

Organization (CALBO). Near- and mid-term tactics are intended to enhance code compliance opportunities

specific to local Bay Area governments. While new activities will be proposed, several existing services (like

energy code compliance tools, specialized and focused trainings, and stakeholder engagement and policy

development activities) will continue as cross-cutting, expanded supports more closely aligned with other

BayREN programs.

BayREN 2017 Annual Report | Page 15

Water Bill Savings Program (WBSP)

Program Description

BayREN Water Bill Savings Program (WBSP)3, provides Partner

Municipal Water Utilities with model tariffs, on-bill program designs,

and technical assistance to enable a means to collect repayment for

costs related to the installation and service of water and energy

efficiency improvements on a utility customer’s property.

Participating customers pay for these services through a monthly

tariffed “efficiency charge”, which appears as a line item on their

water utility bill and is based on their metered use.

WBSP helps local governments, residents, and businesses pursue

property improvements required by code changes, time-of-sale

requirements, and increasingly stringent water-use regulations.

Participating customers who voluntarily purchase eligible program

improvements are assured:

• No up-front payment, no new debt obligation, no credit

checks, and no liens.

• A utility-approved monthly tariffed efficiency charge that is

lower than estimated generated savings.

• Repayment required only while the customer resides at the

project location.

• A guarantee that failed improvements are repaired or the

payment obligation ends.

Work to date has allowed the Town of Windsor, the City of

Hayward, and East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) to provide

single family and multifamily water customers with services to install

high efficiency indoor plumbing fixtures and lighting measures,

convert lawns to drought tolerant landscapes, retrofit hot water

heating systems, and repair and upgrade irrigation systems. These

cost-effective on-bill improvements are intended to produce total

utility bill savings that exceed the monthly tariffed efficiency charge.

The different programs are:

Program Performance and Major Accomplishments

The WBSP three Partner Utilities have retrofitted 448 multifamily units and 247 single family homes for a total

program efficiency charge value of $602,5894 after utilizing approximately $156,353 in rebates. The WBSP

repayment history has been successful, with a default rate of less than 0.1%. Additionally, 16 single family

accounts have successfully transferred their total efficiency charges to successor customers at the project

locations. Major accomplishments for 2017 include:

• Ensured that the program design was aligned with SB-564 Joint Powers Authorities: Water Bill Savings

Act5 signed by Governor Brown on October 2nd, 2017.

• Implemented the DocuSign platform to the Green Hayward PAYS® program to manage every stage of

the program’s workflow from preparing and sending documents through signing.

• Installed water efficiency measures in 81 multifamily units for a total efficiency charge of $16,846.

• Conducted marketing and outreach efforts, which helped secure two projects completed in January

2018 and reserve funds for over 1,283 multifamily units in the project pipeline, projecting a total

program efficiency charge value of $556,809 and a rebate value of $207,416.

• Coordinated outreach with key partners and stakeholder groups including the BAMBE program, the

East Bay Rental Housing Association (EBRHA) and Rental Housing Association of Southern Alameda

County (RHASAC).

• Researched prevailing wage requirements for publicly funded residential water conservation and energy

efficiency projects and performed analysis to inform cost-effectiveness of future on-bill program

designs requiring prevailing wage. Conducted market surveys of Bay Area plumbing and landscaping

contractors regarding their familiarity with prevailing wage and public works projects governed by

Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) regulations.

4 The total Program efficiency charge includes funds reserved in 2017 for projects completed in January 2018.

BayREN 2017 Annual Report | Page 17

• Supported the development of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement for the Windsor Efficiency

PAYS® Program, a mechanism to ensure successor customers are informed of and assume the

responsibilities and obligations associated with the improvements installed at participating properties

including requirements to pay the efficiency charge.

• Began preliminary discussions about low-cost financing options and how to effectively raise capital and

fund services at Partner Utilities within a regional-scale program.

Opportunities in 2018 and Beyond

Contingent upon Business Plan approval, BayREN will:

• Expand the number of participating municipal utility partners to scale on-bill market and service

delivery.

• Facilitate adoption of model tariffs and on-bill program design for market consistency.

• Provide technical assistance to support current Partner Utilities and refine program components to

meet efficiency needs specific to target customer classes.

• Continue development of a regional program that would centralize funding and administration under a

JPA or other governance structure.

• Engage more diverse contractors and enable qualified contractors and building professionals to deliver

turnkey water and energy efficiency projects.

BayREN 2017 Annual Report | Page 18

Commercial PACE

Program Description

The Commercial PACE (C-PACE) Financing Subprogram is designed

to increase uptake in C-PACE financing available through a variety of

Program Administrators (PAs) and Capital Providers (CPs) in the Bay

Area. BayREN supports these goals by providing advanced

contractor training, education, and project development support

that is responsive to the priorities of the entire range of PACE

“gatekeepers”: building owners, first mortgage lenders, capital

providers/PACE administrators, and perhaps most importantly,

contractors.

Building upon strong start-up activities, BayREN’s C-PACE program

consultant Sustainable Real Estate Solutions (SRS) has delivered a

recurring training and support program for Bay Area commercial

contractors, focused on educating them on the funding mechanics

and unique programmatic landscape of PACE programs in the Bay

Area region (i.e., overlapping funders/program administrators in a

competitive “open market” environment), and introducing them to

SRS’ technical and financial underwriting systems and tools. In

earlier program years, activities focused on delivering contractor

trainings. In 2017, the program continued assisting in the development of projects in the pipeline and

expanding engagement to important market actors who have traditionally not participated in energy efficiency

(EE) programs: commercial HVAC contractors. Program efforts for these contractors, who are primarily called

upon to replace failing equipment, now concentrate on marshalling existing EE resources (rebates, incentives,

and technical assistance) to generate additional savings that turns the capital cost of the replacement project

into an energy efficiency investment that achieves positive cash flow.

Program Performance and Major Accomplishments

In 2017, direct assistance to commercial contractors on multiple project opportunities continued, including

project scenario development, attending owner meetings, validation of savings estimates, etc.

BayREN C-PACE Subprogram helped Moresco Distributing close a PACE bond through Sonoma County Energy

Independence Program (SCEIP) to finance a comprehensive LED lighting retrofit at its main facility in Petaluma.

Moresco is a leading supplier of packaging products serving food retailers and other similar customers

throughout California and the Pacific Northwest. Project details are:

• $167,992 total project cost.

2017 Commercial PACE Goals

• Continue to build upon prior year

program activities

• Create a BayREN-branded Energy

Efficiency Advisory (EEA) service that is

highly versed in C-PACE, and can

provide guidance on multiple

financing solutions

• Introduce new tools and forms to

streamline property qualification for

C-PACE financing, reducing risks and

uncertainties for contractors who are

investing their valuable time and

resources into the development

process

• Continue offering targeted ongoing

contractor training and education, but

generally shift resources to one-on-

one contractor assistance

50

BayREN 2017 Annual Report | Page 19

• $50,000 rebate.

• $117,992 net project cost.

• $125,632 total bonded cost (including capitalized interest).

BayREN worked with the contractor (SmartWatt) to illustrate project economics through the lenses of: a self-

finance; on-bill finance ($100k+17k out of pocket) and a 5-year EE loan. BayREN explained the benefits and

logistics of C-PACE, contacted SCEIP to begin the application process, and managed the information and data

exchange between the parties. SRS took the lead on securing lender consent (SCEIP does not assist with this),

and submitted a data package for underwriting that met each of the existing lenders’ needs (Wells Fargo, Bank

of the West, and the SBA in Washington, D.C.).

This was the first C-PACE project to close. The project pipeline as of February 2018 is strong and includes:

• 10 projects in development valued at $5 million, all with preliminary SIR >16.

• 1 project for which SRS has solicited financing term sheets from a C-PACE capital provider, as well as

lease-to-own.

Opportunities in 2018 and Beyond

• Continue Energy Efficiency Advisor (EEA) services and support for small and medium commercial HVAC

contractors to illustrate how project economics on the single measure equipment replacement can be

enhanced with additional EE measures and incentives.

• Work with contractors, Energy Watch (EW) programs, and PG&E to identify free analysis opportunities

and rebates and incentives, and include deemed savings in project economics.

• Partner with Bay Area C-PACE capital providers and PG&E on-bill finance for outreach activities and

explore streamlined offerings for smaller projects.

• Leverage future BayREN commercial programs and U.S. DOE-funded BayREN Integrated Commercial

Retrofits (BRICR) tool to assist with customer targeting and interface, high-level energy modeling, and

savings calculations to increase utilization of C-PACE.

• ABAG has assumed a leadership role in the region by entering into a Regional Collaborative Services

Agreement (RCSA) with most of the PACE Administrators operating in the Bay Area. The RCSA is a

consumer protection agreement that ensures some protections about PACE financing for local

governments and their constituents. BayREN staff, who received complaints about misleading

advertising used by some of the PACE contractors, have taken steps to prevent this from happening

again.

6 Savings-to-Investment Ratio “SIR” > 1, where “S” = projected energy cost savings over ECMs effective useful life (EUL)

& “I” = cost of equipment, installation and financing costs.

Evaluation, Measurement and Verification (EM&V)

Program Description

In D.12-11-015, the RENs were authorized for the first time to conduct their own EM&V studies. BayREN’s

EM&V budget was approved in late 2017.

Program Performance and Major Accomplishments

After completing a competitive procuments, the following studies began in 2017:

1. Single Family Moderate Income Market Characterization

This study supports a potential change to the single family program offering. Specifically, as proposed in the

Business Plan, BayREN will transition out of implementing the Home Upgrade Program and create a new suite

of programs targeted at moderate income homeowners and renters that will encourage whole house savings

over time, engaging and leveraging existing Home Upgrade contractors as much as possible. The study’s goal

is to enable data-driven program design by providing characteristics of single family moderate income

households ($48,000-$125,000) within the BayREN service territory. Study objectives include determining what

this population wants as part of an energy efficiency and/or whole house program and to understand how

BayREN members can best reach these customers. The report is scheduled to be completed by August 2018.

2. Small Medium Business (SMB) Non-Deemed Market Characterization Study

For the SMB market, BayREN began a study in 2017 to assess the general presence and relative size

(preponderance of) certain energy consuming equipment and measure types that currently receive little-to-no

ratepayer incentives and are considered capital intensive. Major objectives are to determine the relative market

size and retrofit opportunity of these measures and equipment types, and associated costs and savings

potential. The study will enable BayREN and other Program Administrators to evaluate the range of possible

investment levels to get at these stranded savings, increase understanding of the specific market drivers that

may be leveraged, and inform potential incentive and financing options, market needs, and possible outreach

strategies. The final report is expected in June 2018.

52

BayREN 2017 Annual Report | Page 21

Energy Savings

In 2017, BayREN administered two resource programs within the Residential Sector that have reported energy

savings: The Single Family Home Upgrade and Multifamily Programs.

Single Family Home Upgrade

The original compliance filing goals filed in 2012 and April 2013 were based on Regional Energy Network (REN)

work papers that were not approved in May 2013 by the Energy Division. Subsequently, BayREN utilized

approved IOU work papers, which produced lower goals and impacts. All Single Family Program cost-

effectiveness calculations in this filing use the approved IOU work paper for the Home Upgrade as the basis for

energy savings.

Multifamily Upgrade

Multifamily project energy savings are based on the EnergyPro Lite (EPL) tool developed in consultation with

the Energy Division technical reviewer (Phase 1) for this program. Custom measures such as lighting are

modeled using IOUs’ workpapers and custom calculators, as approved by the CPUC.

Environmental Impacts

Environmental impacts are shown in Table 2. These results are generated by the Commission-approved Cost

Effectiveness Tool (CET). The CET is designed to calculate energy efficiency program cost effectiveness.

Cost-Effectiveness

While the RENs are not subject to the same cost-effectiveness test that the IOUs are because of the limitations

on the programs that can be offered, (i.e. implementing those programs that are the most difficult, both in

design and implementation, programs that the IOUs do not want to offer for these reasons, and serving hard

to reach markets), BayREN has an eye towards cost effectiveness. The Commission has recognized that it is not

realistic to expect REN programs to be cost-effective within the traditional IOU definition.9 With these

restrictions, and far smaller portfolios, RENs do not have the advantage of using high savings programs (such

as primary lighting or large commercial) to balance residential and small commercial activities that typically and

historically have low cost effectiveness.

The Total Resource Cost Test (TRC) measures the net benefit of a program relative to the participant and

administration costs. Total TRC costs in Table 5 are the sum of total administrative costs and incremental

measure or participant cost. The Program Administrator Cost Test (PAC) measures net benefits relative to total

program costs (including incentive and administration costs). Total PAC costs in Table 5 are the sum of total

program administrative and incentive costs.

Staff Report To: Sonoma County Transportation Authority

From: Janet Spilman, Director of Planning

Item: Planning Activities Report

Date: May 14, 2018

Issue:

Information only.

Background:

PLANNING

• Transit Integration and Efficiency Study – SCTA staff, in coordination with Santa Rosa, Petaluma, and Sonoma County transit and public works staff, developed a draft scope of work and request for proposals (RFP) for consultant assistance. The RFP was released on April 23 and proposals are due on May 21, 2018. Staff plans to bring a proposed contract to the SCTA Board of Directors for consideration in July 2018.

• Bicycle and Pedestrian Planning - Caltrans District 4 released its final Bike Plan on April 16, which is the first of its kind in California. The District 4 Bike Plan evaluates bicycle needs on and across the State transportation network and identifies priority improvements for bicycling http://www.dot.ca.gov/d4/bikeplan/.

SCTA staff participated in the District 4 Bike Plan Technical Advisory Committee and coordinated with local jurisdictions through the CBPAC. SCTA staff has collected updates to the bicycle and pedestrian project list for Appendix A of the Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan and updated it accordingly. Revised bicycle and pedestrian maps are underway.

• Bay Area Sustainable Communities Strategy – MTC has yet to name the next Regional Plan, but they have kicked off the Public Outreach with surveys https://mtc.ca.gov/whats-happening/news/help-us-plan-future-bay-area and staff meetings. The Regional Advisory Working Group (RAWG) has presented a new approach to Regional Planning that “acknowledges risk factors rather than holding them constant across all scenarios evaluated (e.g., housing control totals, tax revenues, or the market share of autonomous vehicles). Peer agencies in Philadelphia, Chicago, and Atlanta have pioneered a “futures”-based planning approach to go beyond the statutorily-required process.”

ADMINISTRATION OF ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION FUNDING

• Transportation Development Act, Article 3 (TDA3) applications were received on March 19, 2018. The proposed program of projects was reviewed by the CBPAC on March 28 and by the TAC on April 26. http://scta.ca.gov/projects/funding/ Next – submit program to MTC

• Transportation for Clean Air Fund, County Program Manager (TFCA, CPM) applications were received on March 21 for the first round of the call for projects and on April 13 for the second round. The proposed

60

program of projects was reviewed by the TAC on April 26. http://scta.ca.gov/projects/funding/ - Next – submit program to BAAQMD

• Lifeline Transportation Program (LTP) applications were reviewed by the evaluation committee on April 5. The proposed program of projects was reviewed by the Transit TAC on April 11. http://scta.ca.gov/projects/funding/ Next – submit program to MTC

PROGRAM MANAGEMENT

• Santa Rosa Car Share Pilot Program –Zipcar utilization increased by approximately 30 percent in March due to longer average reservation times; however the total number of reservations in March were lower than in January and February. The downtown Santa Rosa location continues to be in higher demand than the Railroad Square location. SCTA staff and Zipcar have developed a short-term marketing plan including web-based, print, and SMART overhead panel advertisement. SCTA/RCPA staff promoted Zipcar in Santa Rosa at the April 21 Earth Day event. Santa Rosa residents and employees can take advantage of complementary annual Zipcar memberships subsidized by the grant. Zipcar.com/SantaRosa

• Safe Routes to School – Staff has received Authorization to Proceed from Caltrans for the Safe Routes to Schools Countywide Program, which is funded through the OBAG program for the upcoming 5-year cycle. The development of a Request for Proposals is underway. Staff continues to work with Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition to administer the gap year (2017/2018) Measure M funded SRTS program.

• Bike Share Grant –SCTA staff has submitted final comments on the draft funding agreement to MTC and is working with the Transportation Authority of Marin (TAM) on a program implementation work plan. Funding is anticipated to be available starting July 1, 2018.

DATA MANAGEMENT AND FORECASTING

• Travel Model Update – A Travel Model Update kick-off meeting was held on April 12 to review and update the travel model validation and recalibration scope of work. Work has begun on this phase of the project. Model update consultants (TJKM) have begun reviewing model files and collecting data that will be used for model validation (traffic counts, transit ridership, and other travel data). SCTA staff is supporting this data collection effort and preparing additional model files for model validation. Staff continues to securing funding for additional model improvements and the preparation of a travel behavior study for Sonoma County. The PAC discussed funding additional model improvement tasks, which would focus on supporting general plan updates and other local planning work and provide support for SB 743 compliance. SCTA is refining the project scope and developing a funding plan and budget alternatives based on feedback from the PAC.

• Pending and Permitted Development Tracking – Work continues on improving the Sonoma County Pending and Permitted Development Database. Local planners will be reviewing pipeline projects for their jurisdictions and will identify project status for housing projects and constraints that could impede project completion. This database tracks countywide pipeline projects and feeds this information into the Sonoma County Travel Model.

• Modeling and analysis support - Data, analysis, and mapping support has been provided for projects located in the unincorporated county, the Highway 101 corridor, and to support electric vehicle charging infrastructure development. Web and static mapping products have been updated which support housing development and capital project completion.

• UrbanFootprint - Staff continues to work with local planning staff to coordinate the Urban Footprint local data sharing and licensing pilot program for Sonoma County. SCTA signed a data sharing agreement with UrbanFootprint and has received a license for the tool. Local planning departments will receive a free UrbanFootprint license through the UrbanFootprint Civic program by agreeing to share local data for incorporation in the UrbanFootprint data explorer and scenario analysis tool. The first call for participation in this program is complete, and staff is facilitating local jurisdiction participation in the program. SCTA is partnering with the UrbanFootprint team on a pilot/demonstration project that is using the tool to analyze

61

and visualize housing capacity in Sonoma County and to estimate how housing construction could impact congestion, emissions, cost of living, infrastructure costs, and land consumption.

COORDINATION & OUTREACH

Local Activities

• Spare the Air Resources Team – Worked with the Resources Team on outreach to employers on commute programs and website improvements.

Issue:

Shall the SCTA Board of Directors approve the FY18/19 Transportation Development Act, Article 3 (TDA3) program of projects for submittal to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC)?

Background:

TDA funds are generated from a statewide ¼ cent sales tax. Article 3 of TDA is a set-aside of approximately 2% of those monies. MTC administers TDA3, which is distributed based on population. Each year, an annual fund estimate or “entitlement” is developed for each jurisdiction. Unused entitlement is accumulated as credit. A jurisdiction’s claim in any given year cannot exceed the sum of their accumulated credit plus their projected entitlement for the following two years.

Sonoma County’s cities/towns and the County of Sonoma are eligible to apply. TDA3 funds may be used for bicycle lanes, bicycle and pedestrian paths, and related planning and marketing efforts. There are no matching requirements with this funding source. TDA3 projects are required to meet Caltrans safety design criteria and CEQA requirements; be completed within three years; be maintained; be consistent with adopted bicycle plans; and be authorized by a governing council or board.

Staff issued a Call for Projects on January 16, 2018, with an application deadline of March 19, 2018. In addition to the application, project sponsors were requested to deliver a governing-body authorizing resolution; documentation of environmental clearance; maps/documents showing project locations; and design parameters prior to submittal of the program of projects to MTC at the end of May.

Proposed Program of Projects:

The SCTA received applications for TDA3 funding for the two (2) projects described below.

Staff Report To: SCTA Board of Directors

From: Dana Turréy, Transportation Planner

Item: 4.3.2 - Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA) FY18/19 Program of Projects

Date: May 14, 2018

Issue:

Shall the SCTA Board of Directors approve the FY18/19 Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA), County Program Manager Fund program of projects for submittal to the Bay Area Air Quality Management District?

Background:

Per Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) requirements for the County Program Manager Fund, the SCTA adopts local projects that implement BAAQMD criteria for air quality improvement. These funds are generated through a $4 surcharge on vehicle registrations in the Bay Area, 40% of which are programmed by SCTA through the County Program Manager Fund. In Sonoma County, only the southern portion of the County is within the Air District. Cloverdale, Healdsburg and the unincorporated areas north of Windsor do not receive TFCA funds administered by SCTA.

Funds are to be distributed according to criteria adopted by the SCTA Board on October 16, 2006, which gives Santa Rosa, Petaluma, and the County guaranteed funds according to their population (i.e., their population percentages within the air district boundaries in the County). The remainder of the funds may be applied for on a competitive basis. No forward balances are allowed from prior programming cycles. Funds are paid to project sponsors on a reimbursement basis.

Funding:

The Call for Projects was issued on February 1, 2018 for a total of $606,132 of available funding to be distributed as follows.

Proposed FY19 TFCA Projects

The SCTA received applications for TFCA funding for the four (4) projects listed below. During the initial call for projects, SCTA did not receive any applications for the competitive portion of the funding. The competitive portion of the funding then became available for a second round of applications from Santa Rosa, County, and Petaluma. During this second round of the call for projects, SCTA received one (1) application from the Sonoma County Airport for $39,000. An amount of $92,792 in competitive funds remained available, which staff elected to apply to bus transit project applications based on population. Staff reviewed each project applications received and found all of them to meet the minimum cost-effectiveness thresholds set by BAAQMD. Summaries of the projects listed in the table below are included in Attachment A.

Jurisdiction/Agency Project Title Amount Requested

Petaluma Transit Transit Marketing $100,786

Sonoma County Transit Electric Bus $173,979

Santa Rosa CityBus Trip Reduction Incentive Programs $292,397

Sonoma County TPW Sonoma County Airport EV Infrastructure $39,000

Total $606,132

Fiscal Impacts:

Sonoma County jurisdictions will receive a benefit of up to $606,132 to implement air-pollution-reducing projects and SCTA will receive $39,845 to administer the program.

Staff Recommendation:

Staff recommends that the SCTA Board of Directors approve the proposed FY18/19 TFCA Program of Projects and Resolution No. 2018-006. The Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) recommend approval at their April 2018 meeting.

ATTACHMENT A | FY 19 PROJECT INFORMATION SUMMARY Petaluma Transit, Transit Marketing - $100,789

City of Petaluma will use TFCA funds to sustain the Petaluma Transit marketing program. Specifically, Petaluma Transit will:

• Provide On-Street Service Information: Serve new and existing riders with service information at bus stops and key trip generators (schools, transit transfer centers, public facilities, senior centers, etc.).

• Create and Provide Paper and Online Marketing Materials: Design, create, and provide marketing materials for existing and new riders, including maps, brochures, timetables, etc.

• Carry out additional Marketing Campaigns and Improvements as needed to support planning and operations during FY19. Potential marketing needs include:

o Service changes anticipated Fall 2018 o Bus stop improvements o Promotional materials for schools o Marketing transit routes serving SMART.

Ridership on Petaluma Transit has increased dramatically since our route restructuring in 2011. A large part of these gains have been due to the development of a comprehensive marketing program. This program has relied almost exclusively on TFCA funds. We continue to rely on these funds to fund our marketing program, including the employment of a Marketing Assistant, which is an essential component of maintaining and increasing ridership.

In the calculations, the majority of existing ridership is attributed to our ongoing marketing program. We hope to increase ridership by 10% in FY19.

Sonoma County Transit, Electric Bus - $173,949

Sonoma County Transit seeks $173,949 in TFCA 40% funds to assist with the purchase of a 30/35’ all-electric transit bus. The requested bus will be Sonoma County Transit’s second all-electric bus and will be primarily deployed on local routes in Rohnert Park and Cotati. This purchase supports Sonoma County Transit’s transition from an all compressed natural gas (CNG) fleet to a blended CNG/Electric fleet in the future (heavy-duty buses).

It’s anticipated that the new bus will operate 100% of the time within Sonoma County’s BAAQMD district area, operate 30,000 miles per year and have a 12-year service life.

Santa Rosa CityBus, Trip Reduction Incentive Programs - $292,397

Grantee will use TFCA funds for maintenance and expansion of a comprehensive incentive program available to employers within the Santa Rosa city limits to encourage their employees to reduce single-occupancy vehicle trips resulting from commuting to and from work.

Incentives include:

• Guaranteed Ride Home taxi vouchers • 31-Day transit pass subsidies for Santa Rosa CityBus and Sonoma County Transit • Incentives for carpooling, walking and bicycling to/from work • Learn to Ride CityBus Travel Training-includes a complimentary Santa Rosa CityBus 31-Day Pass for anyone who

participates in the 2-hour class. Learning to ride transit is the first step in becoming a transit patron. • Program management/administrative and marketing expenses are included.

70

In addition, grantee will use TFCA funds to provide a subsidy of all Santa Rosa Youth 31-day bus passes sold during the duration of this program. Also, the funds will be used to subsidize a 31-day pass for eligible Youth who participate in the in the Learn to Ride CityBus Travel Training Program. The funds will also be used for program management and marketing expenses.

The standard $10 subsidy will reduce the cost of a 31-day pass from $35 to $25. This subsidy is increased to $11 for Youth passes sold directly at local middle and high schools. This subsidy encourages parents/guardians of youth to allow them to take public transit as a means of primary travel to and from school. Although the passes are valid for unlimited trips for 31-days, only the trips the youth takes to and from school are used in the Cost-effectiveness Worksheet.

Santa Rosa city streets are very congested during the morning and afternoon hours that correspond with school bell times. Therefore, shifting student/youth travel behavior from the automobile to public transit serves to mitigate traffic congestion on City streets and diminishes wear and tear on roads while helping to improve air quality.

Although bus passes are intended to be used by students traveling to and from school; they have the added benefit of use after school for other activities, such as jobs, shopping and recreational activities. An additional benefit is omitting the back and forth trips parents/guardians need to make when they take their children to and pick them up from school.

Teaching youth the convenience and advantages of using public transit encourages lifelong behaviors. Providing the 31-day bus pass to students/youth who complete the Learn to Ride CityBus travel training program enables the class to embark on additional CityBus trips to, not only improve their bus riding skills, but add to their academic enrichment.

Sonoma County TPW, Sonoma County Airport (STS) Electric Vehicle Infrastructure - $39,000

Grantee will use TFCA funds to install 11 new CT4000 series EV charging ports at Charles M. Schulz – Sonoma County Airport’s new public parking lot, and upgrade the Airport’s existing 2 EV charging ports located inside the Airport terminal parking loop. The Charles M. Schultz - Sonoma County Airport (STS) serves travelers to and from Sonoma, Lake, Marin, Mendocino, and Napa counties and offers nonstop flights to Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, San Francisco, Portland, and Seattle. The airport is located 8.5 miles from downtown Santa Rosa and 68 miles from the San Francisco and Oakland airports. The Airport recently initiated a major expansion effort that will greatly increase its air traffic. The increased air traffic will in turn increase automobile traffic as more people drive to pick up arriving visitors and returning residents, increasing demand for EV charging at the Airport as well as increasing demand for long term parking solutions for EV vehicles. As part of this expansion, the Airport is adding 450 new parking spaces to its long term parking lot. 11 new CT4000 series EV charging ports will be installed in our new long term parking lot. Additionally, the existing 2 single charging ports are outdated and will be replaced with new CT4000 series EV double charging ports. These are located in the Airport short term loop parking area, with a limit of 4 hours parking time per vehicle. Installation of all charging stations should take a maximum of 1 week. Adding long term parking EV stations will now make EV parking and charging at the Airport more accessible to the public, while encouraging the use of EV vehicles, thereby reducing gas emissions throughout Sonoma County.

Staff Report To: Sonoma County Transportation Authority

From: Dana Turrey, Transportation Planner

Item: 4.3.3 – Lifeline Transportation Program Cycle 5, STA and FTA Section 5307

Date: May 14, 2018

Issue:

Shall the SCTA Board of Directors approve the proposed projects for Federal Transit Administration Section 5307 (Section 5307) and State Transit Assistance (STA) funding under the Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s (MTC’s) Cycle 5 of the Lifeline Transportation Program (Lifeline)?

Background:

Lifeline supports projects that address mobility and accessibility needs in low-income communities throughout the region. MTC manages the Lifeline program and distributes the funding to the nine Bay Area counties based on their share of the region’s low-income population.

MTC designated SCTA as the Lifeline Program Administrator for Sonoma County. SCTA is responsible for issuing Lifeline Calls for Projects, soliciting and reviewing applications, and selecting projects that are consistent with Lifeline objectives. The fund sources in Lifeline Cycle 5 are limited to transit operating and capital projects. As permitted in MTC’s guidelines for Lifeline Cycle 5, SCTA staff elected to allocate all of the STA and Section 5307 funds directly to the three Sonoma County bus operators, based on population, to address the sustainability of fixed-route operations. Lifeline projects must address community-identified transportation needs, such as transportation gaps and/or barriers identified in the Community Based Transportation Plans (CBTPs), transportation needs identified in countywide or regional welfare-to-work transportation plans, the Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan, or other substantive local planning efforts involving focused outreach to low-income populations. SCTA has prepared CBTPs for the Roseland, Lower Russian River, The Springs, and central Healdsburg areas.

Funding Amounts for Sonoma County:

Lifeline Cycle 5 provides a total of $1,518,149 for programming in Sonoma County. STA funds were allocated to Sonoma County based on the regional share of low-income ridership and low-income population. Section 5307 funds for Sonoma County are allocated by urbanized area (UZA). The Santa Rosa Large UZA is served by Santa Rosa CityBus and Sonoma County Transit, and the Petaluma Small UZA is served by Petaluma Transit and Sonoma County Transit.

Funding Source FY 2016-17 FY 2017-18 Two year total Local Match STA $562,796 $532,193-1 $1,094,989 20% Section 5307 $209,439 $213,721 $423,160 Capital – 20%

Operating – 50%-2 Auto-related – 50%

Large UZA - Santa Rosa $168,119 $171,556 $339,675 Small UZA - Petaluma $41,320 $42,165 $83,485

Total: $1,518,149 1 FY 17-18 STA figures represent 95% of estimated funding available due to programming variability. 2 STA funds may be used to cover 30% of the difference for projects that are eligible for both Section 5307 and STA funds.

Sonoma County Transit CNG Bus Purchase

Project will assist with the purchase of one compressed natural gas (CNG) transit coach. The new CNG buses would be deployed on routes primarily serving the Healdsburg, Lower Russian River and Sonoma-Springs CBTP areas. The timely replacement of Sonoma County Transit’s CNG buses ensures comfortable and reliable public transit service throughout the fixed-route system.

$223,995 $223,995 $343,005 $567,000

Sonoma County Transit Feeder Bus Service in Healdsburg, Lower Russian River and Sonoma – Springs Areas

Project will continue peak commute feeder bus service on routes providing service within the Healdsburg, Lower Russian River and Sonoma – Springs CBTP areas. SCT routes 52, 53, 54, and 56 provide feeder bus connections to SMART’s passenger rail service and enhanced peak commute service between various outlying low-income areas and where the majority of jobs and services are located within the cities of Santa Rosa and Petaluma.

$579,621 $579,621 $144,905 $724,526

TOTAL: $1,094,989 $423,160 $1,518,149 $704,833 $2,222,982

The Lifeline Cycle 5 Evaluation Panel reviewed all proposals for their consistency with the Lifeline goals and application process. Each project addresses transportation needs identified in one of the four CBTP, MTC’s Coordinated Public Transit Human Services Transportation Plan, or other substantive local planning efforts involving focused outreach to low-income populations. Each project addresses the sustainability of fixed-route operations and is consistent with projects funded in previous Lifeline cycles. All applications demonstrated project readiness and management capacity. Each project sponsor has adopted and submitted resolutions of local support per requirements of Lifeline Cycle 5.

Policy Impacts:

The proposed Program of Projects is consistent with Lifeline objectives and guidelines. The projects also serve SCTA/RCPA goals in facilitating mobility options by maintaining transit service frequency, reliability, comfort, and safety; and encouraging a range of transportation alternatives that can serve to reduce greenhouse gas and air pollution while providing lower cost options to car driving. Transit users across the county will directly benefit from the proposed Lifeline Cycle 5 projects and other roadway users will benefit from reduced vehicle traffic.

Fiscal Impacts:

The over $1.5M of the Cycle 5 Lifeline Transportation Program, consisting of STA and Section 5307 funding, will serve to significantly benefit Sonoma County’s low-income populations. The proposed projects meet the required local match of at least 20% of the total project cost for STA funds, and for Section 5307 capital projects. The proposed projects meet the required local match of at least 50% for Section 5307 operating projects.

Staff Recommendation:

Staff recommends that the SCTA Board of Directors approve the proposed Lifeline Cycle 5 Program of Projects. The Transit Technical Advisory Committee (T-TAC) recommended approval at their April 2018 meeting.

Staff Report To: SCTA/RCPA Board of Directors

From: Suzanne Smith, Executive Director

Item: 4.5.1 - FY18/19 Preliminary Budget – Transportation Funds for Clean Air

Date: May 14, 2018

Issue:

What is the proposed Preliminary Budget for the Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA) for FY18/19?

Background:

By June of each year, the SCTA must adopt three Preliminary Budgets in order for operations to continue. The three budgets cover the SCTA general operations, Measure M and the Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA).

This staff report covers the FY18/19 TFCA Preliminary Budget. As is customary, the budget includes revenue from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District and funds available to each jurisdiction. The projects included in the FY18/19 budget are the same projects considered by the SCTA under item 4.3.2 of this May 14, 2018, agenda. The funds allocated for each project are then assigned to each jurisdiction in which the project is proposed.

Fiscal Impacts:

A total of $606,132 in new funding is made available for projects in Sonoma County via the FY18/19 budget. An additional $39,845.01 will come to SCTA for program administration.

Staff Recommendation:

The SCTA must adopt a TFCA Preliminary Budget for FY18/19 by June 30, 2018. The SCTA should consider the proposed budget and if it meets with the Board’s approval, adopt the FY18/19 TFCA Preliminary Budget and associated resolution. The final budget will be brought back to the SCTA for approval at a public hearing in October 2018.

Adoption of Resolution No. 2018-007 requires a 2/3rds majority vote; therefore, the budget MUST receive eight (8) affirmative votes to pass.

Staff Report To: SCTA Directors

From: Suzanne Smith, Executive Director

Item: 4.5.2 – FY18/19 Measure M Preliminary Budget

Date: May 14, 2018

Issue:

What is the proposed preliminary budget for Measure M for FY18/19?

Background:

By June of each year, the SCTA must adopt three Preliminary Budgets in order for operations to continue. The three budgets cover the SCTA general operations, Measure M and the Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA).

This staff report covers the FY18/19 Measure M Preliminary Budget. Prior year information is included based on projected expenditures for FY17/18. Under the Measure M program, the SCTA must adopt a summary budget that includes the individual budgets for each program category included in the measure as well as individual budgets for the bond revenues, debt service and reserve funds. This independent budget action will enable Measure M funds to be kept separately from other SCTA funds.

A Preliminary Budget for FY18/19 has been prepared that makes some basic assumptions about the amount of sales tax revenue Measure M will receive and assigns it to each program category based on the percent prescribed in Measure M. The Measure M Preliminary Budget also includes anticipated expenses related to projects and administration based on the 2017 Measure M Strategic Plan, programming actions approved by the Board since the adoption of the 2017 Measure M Strategic Plan, assumption based on the preliminary development of the Draft 2019 Strategic Plan and the most recent cash flow model.

Sales tax revenues for FY18/19 are projected to increase 3% over actual FY17/18 revenues.

The expenditures associated with Measure M are focused on project costs and administration. The FY18/19 budget includes funding for all of the project categories and the following specific items:

• Contributions to other Governments – Payments to Caltrans for Hwy 101 projects and local agencies for Local Streets Projects (LSP), Rail, and Bike/Ped projects for environmental, design and construction services and capital costs associated with right-of-way acquisitions and construction

• Consultants – AECOM and BKF for design services for Hwy 101, Parsons Transportation for design of the 116/121 intersection, KNN for on-call financial advisory services, and Vali Cooper & Associates, Inc. for project management services

• Accounting services and audits

88

• Office and legal expenses

• Salaries and benefits for SCTA staff time spent on Measure M efforts

• Payment of principal and interest for a $2.8 Million 2014 inter-program loan from the passenger rail program to the LSP program

Policy Impacts:

No new policy issues are proposed in the FY18/19 Measure M Preliminary Budget

Fiscal Impacts:

The FY18/19 Measure M Preliminary Budget assumes sales tax revenue will increase 3% over FY17/18 sales tax revenues. This assumption will be revisited as part of the final budget in October when updated sales tax revenue trends are known.

Staff Recommendation:

The SCTA must adopt a Measure M Preliminary Budget for FY18/19 by June 30, 2018. The SCTA should consider the proposed Measure M Preliminary Budgets and, if they meet with the Board’s approval, adopt the Preliminary Budget. The final budget will be brought back to the SCTA for approval at a public hearing in October.

Adoption of Resolution No. 2018-008 adopting the FY18/19 Preliminary Budget requires a 2/3-majority vote. Therefore, the budget MUST receive eight (8) affirmative votes to pass.

Staff Report To: RCPA Board of Directors

From: Aleka Seville, Director of Climate Programs

Item: 4.5.3 – RCPA FY18/19 Preliminary Budget

Date: May 14, 2018

Issue:

Shall the Board adopt a preliminary budget for RCPA for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018?

Background:

The RCPA must adopt a preliminary budget by June in order for operations to continue; the attached Preliminary Budget (Exhibit A) contains staff’s recommendation. As is customary, the budget includes all revenues from local, regional, state, and federal sources.

REVENUE IN THE RCPA FY18/19 PRELIMINARY BUDGET INCLUDES:

• State Grants: California Energy Commission

The RCPA and SCTA continued work to design and implement new solutions to encourage the adoption of zero emission vehicles through the Zero-Emission Vehicle Regional Readiness and Planning grant from the California Energy Commission (CEC). The RCPA was awarded $300,000, to be spent over two years for the implementation of local readiness strategies including the creation of an EV ombudsman, populating a local DriveEV.org web resource, supporting jurisdictions in implementing streamlined permitting requirements, developing a candidate charging stations site database, and conducting employer outreach. Total revenue projected from the CEC for reimbursable efforts in FY18/19 is $195,000.

• Other Governments: Bay Area Regional Energy Network and Regional Partnerships

The RCPA, in conjunction with the Association of Bay Area Governments and other local governments in the Bay Area, secured over $16 million dollars to continue to implement energy efficiency programs in 2018. Of this, $408,718 was allocated to the RCPA for the administration of the BayREN PAYS® pilot expansion (including technical consultants), coordination with BayREN members, and the local implementation of regional programs including Energy Upgrade California, Bay Area Multifamily Buildings Enhancement program, building codes and standards work, and commercial PACE marketing. RCPA staff have projected that BayREN counties will be funded at a similar level in 2018. The total forecast revenue from BayREN in FY18/19 for reimbursable efforts is expected to be $408,718.

The RCPA was created through the support of regional agencies; the Sonoma County Water Agency, Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District, Northern Sonoma County Air Pollution Control District, Bay Area Air Quality Management District, and Sonoma Clean Power continue to provide funding to the RCPA. Regional partnerships provide staff capacity for much needed cross sector, cross jurisdiction coordination and for RCPA staff to participate in, support, promote and/or lead the efforts of multiple regional agency partners. In FY18/19 regional partnerships are forecast to provide $220,000.

100

• City and County Contributions

RCPA members provide the balance of funding for the purposes of supporting the non-grant funded activities, which relate to agency operations, coordination, new program development and grant applications, data collection and reporting, and legislative advocacy. The local discretionary funds are essential to make progress on our goals, and these funds serve as a local match, which is often required for state and federal grants. Besides supporting new program and project development, the local funding provides the discretionary flexibility for the Board to provide policy direction and request staff actions on non-reimbursable activities.

The FY18/19 preliminary budget proposes to hold local contributions flat for RCPA Members. The current requested contribution from local agencies is $222,534 (Exhibit B).

• Interest on Pooled Cash

Interest budgeted for FY18/19 is $2,500.

EXPENDITURES IN THE RCPA FY17/18 PRELIMINARY BUDGET INCLUDE:

• Staff Salaries/Benefits

RCPA will fund two full-time positions. In addition, the RCPA will fund half of a full-time Community Affairs Specialist. These employees manage programs, coordinate with partners (staff and directors), write grants, administer contracts, and engage with members of the community on climate action programs and issues. RCPA staff costs also include a share of the Executive Director’s salary and benefits, as well as half of two administrative support positions that provide clerk, reception, accounting, contract routing, record keeping, and program support to both the RCPA and the SCTA.

The County of Sonoma provides health and retirement benefits and paid for by the RCPA.

The increase in staff costs from the FY17/18 budget is due primarily to increases in staff salary and benefit costs and with the conclusion of the Shift grant full salary and benefit amounts are reflected in the RCPA budget as opposed to being partially included in the SCTA budget.

• Outside Contracts/Services

This category totals $1,005,901 and it includes the staff costs above as well as: annual audit services, financial management, claims processing, budget preparation and general accounting, consultant services for PAYS and related BayREN activities, consultant services for CEC Drive EverGreen Implementation, and legal counsel. The legal cost includes standard expenses related to contract reviews and operational questions as well as $113,456 in final payment for litigation expenses.

• Operational Expenses

Items considered operational expenses total $90,400 and include computer hardware and software, office supplies, office lease, a portion of possible moving expenses, printing, postage, travel, and other related categories. The public outreach category includes budget for market, festival, and other event sponsorship and registration to support public outreach on energy efficiency programs and electric vehicles.

Policy Impacts:

Adoption of the RCPA preliminary budget for FY18/19 will establish the program activity level and be dependent upon the agency receiving the shared funding identified in the budget from the agency’s partners.

101

Fiscal Impacts:

RCPA members are asked to continue their support of RCPA at $222,534 – the same level as last fiscal year.

Staff Recommendation:

In order to continue operation, the RCPA must adopt a Preliminary Budget for FY18/19 by June 30, 2018. The Board should consider the proposed Preliminary RCPA Budget and, if it meets with the Board’s approval, adopt the FY18/19 RCPA Preliminary Budget. The final budget will be brought back to the RCPA for approval at a public hearing in October.

Adoption of Resolution No. 2018-002 adopting the FY18/19 Preliminary Budget requires a 2/3-majority vote. Therefore, the budget MUST receive eight (8) affirmative votes to pass.

Staff Report To: SCTA/RCPA Board of Directors

From: Suzanne Smith, Executive Director

Item: 4.5.4 – FY18/19 Preliminary Budget – SCTA Operations

Date: May 13, 2018

Issue:

What is the proposed Preliminary Budget for the SCTA operations for FY18/19?

Background:

By June of each year, the SCTA must adopt three Preliminary Budgets in order for operations to continue. The three budgets cover the SCTA general operations, Measure M and the Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA) program.

This staff report covers the FY18/19 SCTA Preliminary Budget. The budget includes all revenues derived from local, regional, state and federal sources. In addition to revenues, all anticipated expenditures are listed in the preliminary budget. Prior year information is included with FY17/18 projections based on the actual expenditures from the first three quarters of the year.

REVENUE IN THE SCTA FY18/19 PRELIMINARY BUDGET INCLUDES:

Federal Funding

• Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds from MTC planning contract

The SCTA is eligible to receive federal STP funds through MTC based on a contractual arrangement that includes a specific scope of work related to regional activities plus an additional scope of work with tasks related to transportation and land use planning including the maintenance of the travel demand model and Sustainable Communities Strategy work. For FY18/19, the budget anticipates $975,000. The SCTA remains eligible for the funds as long as it maintains a planning and programming function. This source is critical to fund staff and agency operations and is part of the funding in the One Bay Area Grant cycle two process.

• Carshare and Carpool Programs

The SCTA has received federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funding totaling $89,000 this FY for two programs related to developing a Carshare program in Santa Rosa and supporting carpooling throughout Sonoma County. The funds come from MTC’s Climate Initiatives Program and Regional Carpool Program. The Carshare program funds will be used to subsidize implementation, operations and marketing of a pilot car share program in Santa Rosa. The carpool support program funds will be used to develop a countywide guaranteed ride home program and promote other new and ongoing transportation demand management programs in Sonoma County.

State Funding

• State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) – Planning, Programming & Monitoring (PPM)

106

These funds pay for staffing, office space/supplies, and consultant costs associated with the planning and project management related to the State Highway System and other eligible STIP projects. For FY18/19 SCTA anticipates using $240,000 in PPM funds. This revenue comes to the SCTA on a reimbursement basis from Caltrans. This fund source has declined in recent years but with SB1 funding levels for the STIP increasing in the future it should get back to more sustainable levels by 2020.

• HOV Lane Violation Fines

SCTA began receiving a percentage of the fines collected from HOV lane violations in FY14/15. This relatively new source of revenue is challenging to estimate. So far, annual revenue has ranged from $34,000 to $67,000; for FY18/19 the anticipated amount proposed for the budget is $40,000.

Regional Funding

• MTC Discretionary Funds

The SCTA is administering two MTC funded efforts: the Transit Efficiency and Integration Study and a bike share program. The budget of the transit study includes $75,000 in revenue to cover consultant support; the City of Santa Rosa is matching the MTC grant with $75,000. The bike share budget totals $100,000 in revenue to cover implementation costs related to a yet-to-be-determined vendor ($74,000) and staff time to administer the grant ($13,000 each for SCTA and Transportation Authority of Marin).

• Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA) Funds

The SCTA is eligible to receive 6.25% of the TFCA funds to serve as the Program Manager for the TFCA program of projects based on the hours spent managing the program. The SCTA anticipates receiving $39,720 to administer the program for FY18/19. This item shows up under Reimbursements and is reflected as a negative expenditure due to the budgeting systems’ handling of payment transfers within an agency.

The SCTA is also managing the Emergency Ride Home program funded through $35,000 in TFCA. This amount is reflected under revenues.

Local Funding

• The City and County partner contributions

Local jurisdictions contribute to the SCTA based on a population and centerline road mile formula. Population numbers were updated based on Department of Finance figures for 2017 and revised road mile numbers derived from jurisdictions’ Pavement Management System. The total contribution from local jurisdictions as shown in the Preliminary Budget is $372,893

The proposed local contribution from the cities and county reflects no increase over last year. A breakdown of the proposed costs to each jurisdiction is provided.

• Measure M

The SCTA bills directly to projects for SCTA staff time and materials used specifically on Highway 101 projects. The FY18/19 budget reflects $315,000 for staff and materials. This item shows up under Reimbursements and is reflected as a negative expenditure due to the budgeting systems’ handling of payment transfers within an agency.

• RCPA

The RCPA staff is paid for through the SCTA’s budget system and then staff time is reimbursed to SCTA from RCPA. The SCTA budget includes $605,000 in funds from the RCPA to cover staff costs, including a portion of

107

the Executive Director and support staff time. This item shows up under Reimbursements and is reflected as a negative expenditure due to the budgeting systems’ handling of payment transfers within an agency.

Revenue Summary: Overall revenue is up slightly for FY18/19 primarily due to the contracts with MTC that have increased our level of support for regional activities, transit planning and bike share while the amount anticipated from Caltrans has declined.

EXPENDITURES IN THE SCTA FY17/18 PRELIMINARY BUDGET INCLUDE:

• Staff Salaries/Benefits

The FY18/19 budget reflects the salaries and benefits for twelve full time positions. The salary and benefit budget totals $2,224,700, up 6% from FY17/18 due to anticipated merit increases and anticipated but not-yet-quantified increases in the cost of benefits. Health and retirement benefits are provided through the County of Sonoma and paid for by the SCTA.

• Outside Contracts/Services

This category totals $445,668 and includes annual audit services; financial management, claims processing, payroll, budget preparation and general accounting; contracts for consultant services (transportation model validation, Carshare, carpool support, transit study and related activities); and legal counsel for contract reviews and procedural/operational questions including work on State Route 37.

• Operational Expenses

Items considered operational expenses include computer hardware and software, office supplies, office lease, printing, travel, professional development and other relates categories. The total amount requested for these items is $317,379 and includes funding for an office relocation and new lease.

Expenditure Summary: Overall expenditures rose slightly for consultant services related to grant funding and staffing costs.

Policy Impacts:

No new policy issues are proposed in the FY18/19 SCTA Preliminary Budget.

Fiscal Impacts:

Overall revenue is up slightly for FY18/19 primarily due to the contracts with MTC that have increased our level of support for regional activities, transit planning and bike share while the amount anticipated from Caltrans has declined. Overall expenditures rose slightly for consultant services related to grant funding and staffing costs.

Staff Recommendation:

In order to continue operation, the SCTA must adopt a Preliminary Budget for FY18/19 by June 30, 2018. The SCTA should consider the proposed Preliminary SCTA Budget and, if it meets with the Board’s approval, adopt
