FedeRal tRansIt uRban FoRmula gRants (49 u.s.c. sectIon 5307)
Formula grants that fund public transportation capital projects in urbanized areas to finance the planning, acquisition, construction, cost-effective lease, improvement, and maintenance of equipment and facilities for use in transit. one percent of the funds apportioned to urbanized areas with a population of at least 200,000 must be expended for associated transit improvements. the Governor, responsible local officials, and publicly owned operators of mass transportation services, must jointly select the designated recipient for an urbanized area with a population of 200,000 or more.
note: resource utilized for St. Louis trolley Loop.
requires 10% match. Federal share cannot exceed 80% of the net project cost. the Federal share may be 90% for the cost of vehicle-related equipment attributable to compliance with the american with Disabilities act and the clean air act or 85% for the cost of a vehicle that complies with these requirements. the federal share may also be 90% for projects or portions of projects related to bicycles facilities. the Federal share of the eligible operating cost is 50%.
Fy 14 estimated obligation is $4,458,650,000. range of financial assistance is typically $10,890 to $1,293,611. average is $180,588.
Flexible.
new maRkets tax cRedIts
Federal tax incentive that attracts investment capital to low-income communities by permitting individual and corporate investors to receive a 39% tax credit against their Federal income tax return in exchange for making equity investments in a recognized community development entity (cDe). reduces borrowing costs and enables higher risk loans and investments that shoulder collateral shortfalls and credit risks. city would retain ownership of the right-of-way but would lease the immovable infrastructure.
note: new Markets credits used for improvements to new york’s transit system.
a national allocatee (such as LiSc) typically receives allocation between $85 and $133 million. Kc cDe also receives annual allocation, although lesser in amount.
immovable capital infrastructure (track, catenary, and stations) that is located within a qualified census tract (based upon recent census data, eligible alignments would include only independence avenue and Linwood Boulevard); mixed-use and transit-oriented developments.

an existing boundary of a current promise neighborhoods or choice neighborhoods implementation grant or Byrne criminal justice innovation grant must be encompassed within the proposed promise zone boundaries, and the lead grantee and major partner or partners implementing activities under those grants must play substantial roles in the promise zone application, such as lead applicant, implementation partner or other partner making significant commitments.
at present, the only area in Kansas city potentially qualified to be designated as a promise zone is at the location of the Byrne criminal justice assistance Grant (from 27th to 39th, paseo to Benton).
Undetermined. pending Housing authority choice neighborhood implementation Grant, if secured, could potentially allocate up to 20% or $4.5 million of grant to streetcar (existing plan would likely have to be amended to designate transit within the neighborhood revitalization focus. Under current plan, transit is mentioned but not a focus). requires city match. could potentially use streetcar property tax and sales tax as part of the local match for choice neighborhoods implementation Grant, and use the 20% or $4.5 million choice allocation to fund the streetcar and related appurtenances within zone.

Federal credit assistance in the form of direct loans, loan guarantees, and standby lines of credit to finance surface transportation projects of national and regional significance. tiFia credit assistance provides improved access to capital markets, flexible repayment terms, and potentially more favorable interest rates than can be found in private capital markets for similar instruments. tiFia can help advance qualified, large-scale projects that otherwise might be delayed or deferred because of size, complexity, or uncertainty over the timing of revenues.
eligible transit projects include the design and construction of stations, track, and transit-related infrastructure, purchase of transit vehicles, and any other type of project that is eligible for grant assistance under chapter 53 of title 49 of the United States code.
an eligible project must have a cost of at least $50 million. Federal funding cannot exceed 33% of eligible costs or the amount of senior debt, if the tiFia loan does not have an investment grade rating. the project must have a dedicated revenue source to pledge as repayment on the tiFia loan (many different types, including sales tax, tax increment finance, and fuel taxes). tiFia often used in p3 transactions.
$750 million in Fy 2013 and $1 billion in Fy 2014. additional funds may also be available from budget authority carried over from previous fiscal years. any budget authority not obligated in the fiscal year for which it is authorized remains available for obligation in subsequent years.

Fhwa state InFRastRuctuRe banks
SiBs are revolving infrastructure investment funds for surface transportation projects that are established and administered by states. Much like a private bank, SiBs offer a range of loans and credit assistance enhancement products to public and private sponsors of title 49 transit capital projects. a title 49 capital project is one that provides “regular and continuing shared-ride surface transportation services that are open to the general public or open to a segment of the general public defined by age, disability, or low income.”
previously, states participating in the SiB program could capitalize in its transit account up to 10 percent of federal funds made available for capital projects under Urbanized area Formula Grants, capital investment Grants, and Formula Grants for other than Urbanized areas. Map-21 has not allowed new 2013-2014 funding to be used to capitalize SiBs.
Missouri created a SiB in 1998 under tea-21.
a state must match the Federal funds used to capitalize the SiB on an 80-20 Federal/non-Federal basis. States also have the opportunity to contribute additional state or local funds beyond the required nonfederal match.
capital infrastructure.
buIld ameRIca bonds provide state and local governments with a new, direct federal payment subsidy for a portion of the borrowing costs on taxable bonds. BaBs provide a deeper federal subsidy to state and local governments (equal to 35% of the taxable borrowing cost) than traditional tax-exempt bonds that leads to lower net borrowing costs for state and local governments.
From the inception of the program in april 2009 through May 31, 2010, over $106 billion of BaBs have been issued by state and local governments in 49 states, the District of columbia and two territories. the pace of issuances remains steady today.

Section 108 is the loan guarantee provision of the community Development Block Grant (cDBG) program. Section 108 provides states and communities with a source of financing for economic development, public facilities, and large-scale physical development projects. all projects and activities must either principally benefit low- and moderate-income persons, aid in the elimination or prevention of slums and blight or meet urgent needs of the community.
this makes it one of the most potent and important public investment tools that HUD offers to states and local governments. it allows them to transform a small portion of their cDBG funds into federally guaranteed loans large enough to pursue physical and economic revitalization projects that can renew entire neighborhoods.
entitlement public entities. an entitlement public entity may apply for up to five times the public entity’s latest approved cDBG entitlement amount, minus any outstanding Section 108 commitments and/or principal balances of Section 108 loans.
a state or a non-entitlement public entity may apply for up to five times the latest approved cDBG amount received by its State, minus any outstanding Section 108 commitments and/or principal balances on Section 108 loans for which the State has pledged its cDBG funds as security.
eligible projects include, among others, economic development activities eligible under cDBG; construction, reconstruction, or installation of public facilities (including street, sidewalk, and other site improvements); payment of interest on the guaranteed loan and issuance costs of public offerings; and debt service reserves.

coupling the streetcar project to state amtrak funding and jackson county’s commuter rail initiative might create statewide political support to increase Missouri’s appropriation, a portion of which could then be leveraged to the streetcar project.

When local tiF leaves a gap for a redevelopment project, a municipality can apply for a portion of the new state tax revenues created by the project to be disbursed to cover the financing gap for eligible redevelopment costs on the project. to be eligible for State tiF, the underlying local tiF must dedicate at least 50% of the amount of the new local sales tax revenue and 100% of the amount of the new real property tax revenue created by the project each year for which state tiF is sought.
an applicant may be approved to receive up to 50% of the net new state sales tax revenue (general revenue portion only; excluding dedicated taxes) generated in the project area or up to 50% of the increase in state income tax revenue from net new jobs in the project area. an applicant cannot receive both.

State of Missouri, through the Missouri Department of transportation, provides funds to amtrak to operate on a line that spans from Kansas city to St. Louis. program enjoys bi-partisan support from urban and rural factions alike, and there have been recent efforts by Kansas city to tie Kansas city amtrak to San antonio and oklahoma city via newton and Wichita, Kansas.
coupling the streetcar project to state amtrak funding and jackson county’s commuter rail initiative might create statewide political support to increase Missouri’s appropriation, a portion of which could then be leveraged to the streetcar project.
State historically funds amtrak service in the amount of approximately $8.5 million per annum. For Fy 2014, that number is $8.9 million.

a limited-term, annual appropriation pledge for the streetcar project is a moral obligation of the State. Mostly general revenue funds are used for transit, as the Missouri constitution prohibits state gas tax money from being used for anything other than roads.

the State of Missouri spent a total of $6.9 million in Fy 2009 for transit projects utilizing the Missouri State transportation Fund. Seven public urban transit providers and 27 rural transit providers receive state transit operating assistance funds.
the State transportation Fund may also provide monies for trails, paths, and bikeways that occupy a transportation facility right-of-way, without limitation to any specific location within that right-of-way, so long as the continuity of the trail, path, bikeway, or sidewalk is maintained. Furthermore, the fund will support trails, paths, and bikeways that are part of the local transportation system and which function primarily for transportation.
the State transportation Fund will also sponsor enhancement projects and mitigation activities. proposed legislation (Sjr 48) for one-cent sales tax for transit is pending.

in Hong Kong, its transit developer, Mtr, leases/sells its development rights to a third-party for upfront cash, sells/leases the toD development it or its third-party assignee has constructed, and also provides property management services. the model has allowed Mtr to finance, build and operate most of Hong Kong’s transit infrastructure.
