Hillsborough Transit Authority Board of Directors Meeting and

Public Hearing on the FY2017 Proposed Program of Projects July 17, 2017

BOARD ACTION ITEM Resolution #R2017-07-27 ~ Authorizing Approval of the Proposed Program of Projects (POP), Holding a Public Hearing to Receive Input on the Proposed Projects, and Applying for and Accepting all FY2017 Federal Transportation Funding OVERVIEW Annually, HART receives federal funding through the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) which is used for operating expenses and capital projects. A resolution from the HART Board is required to receive the funding. In addition, urbanized area formula (Section 5307) and bus formula programs (Section 5339) have special requirements related to identifying the specific list of projects to be reimbursed with the funding and obtaining public input on the projects. FINANCIAL IMPACT This action will have a positive impact on HART’s budget. The Urbanized Area Formula Funding Program (Section 5307) will reimburse preventive maintenance related expenses for fixed route and streetcar programs, assist with costs associated with the provision of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) complementary paratransit service, and fund other capital investments. $131,849 of the formula funding will be allocated to meet the FTA requirement that 1% of the formula program be allocated to security related projects. Additionally, the Bus and Bus Facilities Formula Program (Section 5339) and the State of Good Repair (Section 5337) provides funding to replace, rehabilitate and purchase bus and bus related equipment and facilities. These Federal grants require a 20% local match which will be satisfied with Transportation Development Credits allowed through the Florida Department of Transportation. BACKGROUND The Federal Register notice issued on July 5, 2017 announced the full year allocation of funding for the FY2017 formula programs. Formula program funds are made available to the Tampa/St. Petersburg urbanized area. In urbanized areas with more than one transit system, the FTA apportionment for formula funds must be divided between the agencies by an interlocal agreement. The agreement between HART, Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA), Pasco County Public Transportation (PCPT) and Tampa Bay Regional Transportation Authority (TBARTA) for the distribution of the formula funds was approved on July 6, 2017. Grant applications will be submitted to FTA using the Transit Awards Management System (TrAMS). The formula programs are described below.

• Urbanized Area Formula Program (Section 5307) The Urbanized Area Formula Program (Section 5307) is the largest funding program, with the funding allocated based on population, service, and density considerations. $29,738,994 was made available to the Tampa/St. Petersburg urbanized area for the Section 5307 program, with HART receiving $13,184,903. Section 5307 funding is the main federal source of transit capital and eligible operating funds.

Hillsborough Transit Authority Board of Directors Meeting and

Public Hearing on the FY2017 Proposed Program of Projects July 17, 2017

• Bus and Bus Facilities (Section 5339) This capital program provides funding to replace, rehabilitate, and purchase buses and related equipment, and to construct bus-related facilities. The Section 5339 funds allocated to the urbanized area is $2,913,248, with HART receiving $1,293,496.

• State of Good Repair (Section 5337) This capital program provides funding to renovate or rehabilitate buses and related equipment, and bus-related facilities. The Section 5337 funds allocated to the urbanized area is $619,557, with HART receiving $509,386 for Fixed Guideway and $104,093 for High Intensity Motorbus tiers.

FTA requires that grantees funded under Section 5307 and Section 5339 develop a proposed POP and provide an opportunity for the public to comment on the proposed POP (Attachment I). The listing includes the Section 5307 and 5339 projects that will be included in grant applications that will be submitted to FTA. NEXT STEPS Once Program of Projects is approved by the Board through resolution, applications for Section 5307, Section 5339, and Section 5337 funding will be submitted to FTA for review and execution.

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE Pledge of Allegiance followed. Chair Miller read Director White’s Absence Memorandum into the record. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Director Bowers moved and Director Kemp seconded approval of the May 1, 2017 Regular Board of Director meeting minutes. All Board members present voted aye. The motion carried unanimously. PUBLIC COMMENT ON AGENDA ITEMS (3 MINUTES PER SPEAKER) Sharon Calvert discussed the presentation on Bus Rapid Transit and asked that the Board ensure that HART serve those that need the service before initiating costly projects. She reported that she was at a local delegation meeting where Ms. Eagan made a comment that HART is so far behind in technology and innovation that the Agency is actually ahead as there are opportunities to take advantage of new technologies and services. Ms. Calvert commented that the situation is a good thing as innovation and technology is rendering fixed highways irrelevant. Director Jaroch arrived at 9:03 a.m. Ms. Calvert also discussed the Homestead Exemption Amendment that will be on the ballot next year and is expected to pass and advised the Board to look positively on the situation as there is a reason why the State put the amendment on the ballot. She noted that population and property values are growing. Ms. Calvert applauded HART for transitioning to a zero based budget and asked the Board to fully understand the financial position prior to authorizing raises as she felt last year, the overall impact was presented late in the approval process. RECOGNITION Transit Supervisor Tim Martin Ms. Eagan introduced Tim Martin, Transit Supervisor; Colin Mulloy, Director of Safety; and Brooke Basquit, Director of Human Resources & EEO Officer. Ms. Basquit and Mr. Mulloy thanked Mr. Martin for his actions. Mr. Mulloy introduced Captain Michael Flynn, Tampa Police Department. Captain Flynn recognized Mr. Martin on behalf of the Tampa Police Department and stated that his actions exemplified the mission statement of TPD. Ms. Eagan explained how Mr. Martin assisted the Tampa Police Department with subduing and apprehending a suspect. His intervention saved two police officers’ lives and far exceeded the expectations of his regular duties. Chair Miller thanked Mr. Martin on behalf of the Board for his quick thinking and reiterated that his actions went above and beyond his assigned duties. He remarked that his son is a Sergeant with TPD and law enforcement officers have a special place in his heart.

PRESENTATION Budget Overview Lucien Campillo, Director of Enterprise Project Management, and Cynthia Zambella, Budget & Grants Manager, provided a presentation that focused on the tentative FY2018 operating budget with a focus on revenues to expenditures, mitigation of fiscal constraints and key cost savings measures. A full copy of the presentation is available upon request from the Clerk of the Board at [email protected]. Director Melendez arrived at 9:10 am. Director Suarez arrived at 9:15 a.m. Director Jaroch noted that the $3 million does not include the ad valorem increase and confirmed that it was decided to put the additional revenue into fund balance due to cash flow. Ms. Eagan explained that the plan is to build up the reserve as the lack of reserve has led to not having a local match for some programs. She added that starting with FY2018 and going forward, HART is recalibrating and resetting its business model; and all new revenue would be put into fund balance. Director Jaroch inquired whether HART will use the reserves for the $6.3 million. Ms. Eagan reported that the next presentation addresses the TDP and COA which includes a proposed phased approach. She noted that staff reviewed opportunities outsourcing Risk Management and Payroll functionalities as HART has received proposals on improving business processes. Ms. Eagan added that staff is addressing the potential change in ad valorem and that the focus will be on service. Director Jaroch noted that a presentation on the Homestead Exemption is later on the agenda. Ms. Eagan confirmed that the information is still tentative. Director Jaroch stated that she has some slides prepared for that discussion and asked if she should wait until it is addressed under New Business. Ms. Eagan responded affirmatively. Recommended Service Transformation- TDP and COA Update This presentation supports Committee Action Item Resolution #R2017-06-25 ~ Authorize Staff to Hold a Public Hearing on Proposed Fixed Route Bus Service Changes Identified Through Comprehensive Operations Analysis. Justin Begley, Manager of Planning, introduced Joel Rey with Tindale Oliver & Associates. Mr. Rey provided follow up to previous presentations with recommendations for a rationalized transit network. Recommendations are based on data and what was learned from public and Board input, stakeholder working groups, and staff. This recommended network sets the foundation to better meet current and

future mobility needs with coordinated HART services. A full copy of the presentation is available upon request from the Clerk of the Board at [email protected]. Director Kemp commented that agreed with the direction of the recommendations regarding the grid and service frequency and noted that frequency is really a proxy for speed. She noted that she has concerns about some of the proposed changes to Route #1 decreasing the frequency north of Hillsborough Avenue and suggested that the route is maintained at 20 minutes frequency. Ms. Eagan explained that there are slides addressing the improvements called for by the TDP and the budget gap. She noted that one aspect of the study is how to determine where to concentrate investments if everything cannot be implemented at one time. Mr. Rey added that Route #1 is stripped down so it can be built back up over the ten years of the TDP. Director Kemp suggested continuing to run at 20 minutes frequency until it can be changed to the 15 minute intervals throughout the entirety of the route. She added that she feels that regional expressway service should be funded by the State or FDOT. Director Kemp stated that the focus needs to be on building local service. She expressed some concerns over reducing the stops for the key Route #2 Director Kemp also noted that the website displays the maps, but does not have all stops listed. Director Murman stated that the proposed routes build a terrific foundation for the next ten years. She noted that there are still not many solutions for northwest and south county and that HART needs to find a way to connect those areas with a hub for strong ridership. Director Murman commented that HART should continue to focus on the top ten percent of routes. Ms. Eagan stated that the outreach meeting schedule will be shared with the Board in the CEO Weekly and there are several scheduled for June and July with the public hearing in late July. Director Murman suggested also having the schedule on the county website. Director Jacob agreed with the proposed changes and that the Board has to make difficult decisions to move forward in the strategy. He asked how the proposed frequency changes are expected to impact the capacity. Mr. Rey explained that the COA report will have the information. He reported that one aspect that is considered is whether a route is ready for more frequent service. Director Suarez asked if new technologies impacting the service model are taken into account. He noted that the slide referencing service in 2027 indicates there will be a quickly connected grid and superstops; however, he feels that there will need to be more investments in technology. Director Suarez suggested having a board at hotels and other places of business outlining the variety of services that HART provides. Mr. Rey explained that capital options are also examined as there are technological advances that can occur. He added that it is difficult to anticipate new technologies that have emerged by 2027. Director Suarez stated that HART has a long way to go before AV needs to be seriously considered as there are no connections to other areas such as smart parking. He said HART needs to consider

reinvesting some of the money saved by the TDP into new technologies and to securing additional partnerships. Mr. Rey stated that Tindale Oliver is working on the capital portion of the plan, but did not include it in the presentation as it is not complete. He noted that some aspects of the proposed service update are focused on mobility enhancement, such as HyperLINK and Flex services. Mr. Rey added that there are companies that go beyond the apps where people can see where all the buses in the network are at any given time, and his understanding is that there is the potential to do the same thing with ridership using cell data and OneBusAway to track a patron’s ridership from origin to destination. Director Suarez suggested that this may be a good pilot project for patrons to opt in on so there is a better view on where there is demand for buses. Chair Miller announced that it has just been reported that there was another mass shooting in Orlando and asked for a moment of silence. Director Jaroch said she supported the plan; however, she appreciates Director Kemp’s comments about being cognizant of the existing riders. She asked if the park and ride lots on the map are existing or a part of the proposal. Mr. Rey reported they are existing and some may be incorporated as additional hubs. Ms. Eagan add that the park-n-rides are a use agreement with a facility who has excess parking such as a recreation center or church. Director Jaroch explained that her question was due to Waze launching a carpool app in California and suggested that staff reach out to the company to invite them to pilot in Hillsborough county. She asked what the policies are for the park-n-rides and if it is a safe place to meet someone and leave their car as a way to facilitate. Mr. Begley reported that Waze was approached and the original Tampa Smart Cities proposal included a partnership. He indicated that if it were to go anywhere else, it will likely go to Tampa. Mr. Begley added that mobility on demand is constantly considered by staff and built on OneBusAway. Director Donohue asked if the proposed plan includes any opportunities for increases due to events. Mr. Rey stated that the TDP can look at special events and accommodations are made to enhance relationships with Transportation Network Companies. Marco reported that one of the things staff is aware of is the opportunity to give people a good first impression of public transit at events such as Gasparilla. He stated that as big events come to Tampa, HART is at the table as a solution and partner to move people to and from the event. Ms. Eagan added that part of the TDP is moving transit away from the West Tampa Transfer Center as it is always closed during events, and having a hub at the HCC campus. Director Donohue said a difficult question to ask is at what point HART says there are limitations to HART’s ability to transport everyone in Hillsborough county. She explained that there are several areas

that have high populations, but are near the edges of the county and asked whether HART has the right to say it cannot make it everywhere in the county. Chair Miller agreed that eventually, HART will have to say it cannot serve every nook and cranny of the county. Director Kemp agreed with Director Donohue and Chair Miller. She referenced Director Jaroch’s comments and explained that TBARTA has a carpool program that the county will be considering funding. Director Melendez agreed with Director Donohue and added that as long as the consultants procured continue to be knowledgeable, the decision can be justified as it is based on facts. Bus Rapid Transit on a Budget Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) projects can be sized to meet a community’s priorities and targeted level of investment. BRT facilities and plans range from dedicated busways to traffic-signal technology, express lanes, and innovative intersection design. Clarence Eng, Kimley-Horn, gave an overview of strategies recently being explored to minimize costs, as well as highlighting other examples of successful BRT across the country. Kimley-Horn has completed several projects in US and in South Florida where BRT is designed to complement and connect to rail, airport, rideshare, walk-up, and other modes of transportation. FDOT is leading the Broward County Transit’s South US 1 BRT study solutions through the project design implementation phase, and Miami-Dade is completing a network of enhanced rapid bus / BRT corridors. A full copy of the presentation is available upon request from the Clerk of the Board at [email protected].

She reported that staff has been polling the Executive Committee for a joint meeting with PSTA. Ms. Eagan stated that the Director of Procurement at PSTA resigned and Al Burns, HART Director of Procurement and Contracts Administration will oversee both agencies’ procurement departments for 90 days as a pilot. GENERAL COUNSEL’S REPORT Mr. David Smith, HART General Counsel, had no report. STATUS REPORTS Chair Miller referred the Board members to the materials in the packet.

Chair Miller stated that Director Jaroch has a presentation and asked if there are any objections since the agenda was already publicized. Director Jaroch had graphed the information provided in the presentation made available on Friday and reviewed the various visualizations of data that she prepared. A full copy of the presentation is available upon request from the Clerk of the Board at [email protected] Director Jacob asked where Director Jaroch obtained the data. Director Jaroch responded it was from the presentation that was distributed and available online last Friday. Ms. Eagan directed the Board to the next presentation. Cynthia Zambella reviewed the Homestead Exemption and Millage slides. A full copy of the presentation is available upon request from the Clerk of the Board at [email protected] Chair Miller explained that he asked for a discussion on the Homestead Exemption and Millage to be included on the agenda since half of the budget is ad valorem and there is currently a $6 million deficit, which is expected to grow, and it is time to look at where the agency is and where the Board would like to go. He reported that this is being done at the county as well as other governmental agencies. Chair Miller stated that there has not been a millage increase for HART since 2012 and the county continues to grow. He noted that the Board has a responsibility to make sure HART gets the necessary services to the public. Director Murman asked to see a financial analysis detailing what would be entailed with either increasing millage or maintaining the status quo. She noted that people in the community do not want to be dependent on their cars and as hard as staff has been working, HART is not able to get to that point yet. Director Murman added that the TDP is the foundation and she would like to see her constituents be able to have access to good jobs and transportation. Director Kemp agreed with Director Murman and the proposal to examine an increase in millage. She reported that the partial funding for the transportation system in many states is provided by the state; however, Florida does not do so and Hillsborough and Pinellas are the only two counties whose transportation is reliant almost exclusively on ad valorem. Director Kemp stated that she supports any and all measure to move forward with funding and use them in the most efficient ways possible. Mr. Smith noted that the charter limits HART to 0.5 mills and following an analysis, the proposed change will need to go to the County Commission, City of Tampa, and City of Temple Terrace, and there may need to be a referendum. Chair Miller stated that he asked the county attorneys and that it will need to go on the ballot for the public to vote after it go through the other entities. Director Melendez asked for more information regarding Tindale Oliver’s capital recommendations prior to making a decision about increasing millage. Director Melendez left at 11:05 a.m.

Director Suarez suggested a special meeting to discuss the issues. Mr. Smith advised he can discuss with the county attorney and provide a report to the Board. Director Suarez stated that a HART special meeting may be more advisable as the intention is to make the content simple by having an agenda devoid of any other issues. Chair Miller agreed and suggested staff look at some dates the end of July or beginning of August. He asked for a presentation on the impact of a millage increase. Director Jaroch commented that she did not realize the millage increase was included and her intent was to examine the homestead exemption. Director Murman advised the Board to be mindful of the politics as there are discussions of a gas tax at the County Commission and the premium transit feasibility plan that will be completed next summer. Commissioner Director Kemp reiterated her intention to discuss increasing funding for HART services with the County Commission.

PROCUREMENT CONSIDERATIONS On March 14, 2017, RFP-24431 was issued in compliance with HART procurement policies and included all federally required clauses. The solicitation was posted on HART website and DemandStar with direct notices sent to 342 firms. Sixty-five firms represent HART A&E prequalified firms and 277 DBE firms that could provide the services. The solicitation was accessed from HART’s website by 60 firms and/or individuals and from DemandStar by 36 firms and/or individuals.

Eight proposals were received by the deadline of April 18, 2017, at 3:00 p.m. The proposals were found to be responsive to the solicitation requirements. The proposals were evaluated by an evaluation committee of members from HART Facilities and PMO. The evaluation criteria, specified below, was used to identify the most qualified firm to perform the services:

350 Points - Qualifications of the Firm and/or Team 500 Points - Work Plan 150 Points - Relevant Projects

Total Technical Points – 1,000 The eight firms scored as follows:

GLE POND EMG Wilder Architecture

Long & Associates KPI

Vivid Consulting Group

NOVA

882 858 857 782 738 685 575 520

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Following independent evaluation and discussion, the Evaluation Team recommended that HART request a price proposal from GLE, the number one ranked firm. The price proposal submitted was 36.6% below the Independent Cost Estimate and had 16% DBE participation, exceeding the 6% project goal established. On May 25, 2017, Procurement and the Evaluation Team met with GLE for clarifications to assure understanding of their firm’s project approach and the expectations of HART to complete the project.

COMMITTEE ACTION ITEM Authorize a Memorandum of Understanding between Hillsborough Transit Authority (HART) and Tampa Bay Area Regional Transportation Authority (TBARTA) for the Provision of Vanpool Services in FDOT Funded Transit Corridors OVERVIEW HART and TBARTA propose a pilot project for the provision of vanpool services in the 20X (Lutz Express) and 51X (New Tampa Express) corridors. HART presently operates these routes via 100 percent FDOT Transit Corridor grant funding. RECOMMENDATION That the Finance and Audit Committee review the action item authorizing a Memorandum of Understanding between HART and TBARTA for the provision of vanpool services in FDOT funded transit corridors; and advance this item to the full Board of Directors at the July 17, 2017 regular Board meeting. FINANCIAL IMPACT The entirety of the project will be funded by the current FDOT Transit Corridor grants. There will be no impact to the HART budget. These grants must be used within the currently identified 20X and 51X corridors. BACKGROUND HART presently has in place FDOT 100 percent and renewable Transit Corridor grants for Routes 20X (Lutz Express) and 51X (New Tampa Express). Both routes have been losing ridership and future renewals of the grant is in doubt. In order to reinvigorate these corridors and to improve the quality of service, HART has proposed to FDOT that a pilot ‘Customer Options’ program to provide alternatives in the corridors be established. The program is multi-faceted and includes:

• Vanpool • Local HyperLINK service • Potential pooling using ridesharing services • Targeted marketing of these services •

This Memorandum of Understanding concerns only the vanpool service and will authorize HART and TBARTA to jointly create a vanpool program that targets commuters. Routes 20X and 51X will be maintained for at least one-year and would be discontinued if vanpool proves to be a satisfactory alternative to express bus. HART strategic goals are to ‘Embrace Innovative Practices and Systems’ and ‘Connect the County and Region’. Providing alternative solutions to transportation problems address both of these goals. This project represents HART’s aspiration to be in the forefront of new and innovative strategies to address the provision of transportation alternatives.

July 17, 2017

BOARD ACTION ITEM Resolution #R2017-07-30 ~ Certifying the Proposed Ad Valorem Tax Millage Rate for the Fiscal Year 2018 Budget OVERVIEW Pursuant to Florida Statute 200.65, HART has 35 days from receipt of the certified property value to advise the Property Appraiser of its proposed (not to exceed) millage rate, of its rolled-back rate and the date, time, and place at which a public hearing will be held to consider the proposed millage rate and the tentative budget (pursuant to Florida Statute 129.03). RECOMMENDATION That the HART Board of Directors approves the attached Resolution which certifies HART’s Proposed Ad Valorem Tax Millage rate (not to exceed) for the Fiscal Year 2018 budget and affirm the public hearing dates. The following data will be certified to the Property Appraiser:

A. The prior year millage for FY2017 is 0.5000; B. The proposed (not to exceed) millage for FY2018 is 0.5000; C. The rolled-back rate for FY2018 is .4773, which is 4.76% below the proposed millage rate

of .5000; and D. The first public hearing to tentatively approve the millage and tentative budget is

September 11, 2017 at 5:30 p.m. at 1201 E. 7th Avenue, Tampa, Florida. FINANCIAL IMPACT The fiscal impact of this agenda item is the estimated revenue generated from ad valorem taxes based on the proposed (not to exceed) millage rate of 0.5000 and the certified property values received on June 27, 2017. Based on the final certified property valuation of $84,658,411,186, it is estimated that $42,329,206 of revenue will be generated. At 95%, $40,212,745 will be budgeted in the HART FY2018 operating budget. The millage rate comparison from FY2017 is as follows:

Proposed Adopted FY2018 FY2017 Difference/Percent Proposed (not to exceed) millage 0.5000 0.5000 0.0000/0.00% BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION HART is an independent taxing district and is authorized by its Charter to levy ad valorem tax based on full evaluation of real property within the jurisdictional limits of its constituent members, at a rate sufficient to produce an amount that may be necessary for effectuating the process of the Authority (Article VI, Section 2, Special Region Taxation of Charter). If a taxing authority does not provide the required information within 35 days, the taxing authority cannot levy a millage rate greater than the rolled-back rate for the upcoming year. The Property Appraiser will calculate the rolled-back rate and use it to prepare the notice of proposed property taxes (s.200.065 (2) (b), F.S.).

The FY2018 millage rate will be reflected on the August tax notices. Once the proposed millage is certified, the Board can lower the millage rate at the September budget public hearings but cannot increase the millage above the certified rate unless each taxpayer is sent notice by first-class mail. NEXT STEPS HART is required by statute to hold two public hearings. The first public hearing is scheduled for September 11, 2017 at 5:30 p.m. at 1201 East 7th Avenue, Tampa, Florida. This public hearing is publicized on the TRIM Notice mailed by the Property Appraiser. At this hearing, HART will:

A. Adopt the tentative millage and budget; B. Publicly announce the percent, if any, by which the proposed millage exceeds the rolled-

back rate; and C. Publicly announce the second public hearing for September 25, 2017, at 5:30 p.m. at 1201

East 7th Avenue, Tampa, Florida, to adopt the final millage and budget. This second public hearing is also advertised and cannot be held sooner than two days, nor later than five days after, it is advertised in the newspaper.

PUBLIC HEARING AND OUTREACH MEETINGSProposed Service Changes & Transit Development Plan UpdateYour opinion is critical in designing transit service as HART plans for the next 10 years.

HART is analyzing how public transportation in Hillsborough County is currently beingdelivered, and what that service might look like in the future. Doing both a review of the current network, and planning for service over the next ten years allows HART to essentially “reset” the transit network, providing a strong foundation for future ex .

During the first phase of outreach on the Transit Development Plan, we asked for your inputon your commuting habits and your preferences for service additions or changes.

In this next phase, we need your input on the proposed service changes, and the various options that are being considered. .

ELECTION OF CHAIR AND VICE CHAIR David Smith, General Counsel, conducted elections for an interim Finance and Audit Committee Chair in the absence of both the Chair and Vice Chair. This appointment will be effective for only the June 19 Committee meeting. Committee member Bowers nominated Interim Committee Chair Jaroch. Committee member Kemp arrived at 9:02 a.m. There were no other nominations. All Committee members present voted aye. The motion passed unanimously. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Committee member Bowers moved and Committee member Jacob seconded the approval of the Minutes from the April 17, 2017 Finance and Audit Committee meeting. All Committee members present voted aye. The motion passed unanimously. PUBLIC COMMENT ON AGENDA ITEMS (3 MINUTES PER SPEAKER) No one signed up to speak. PRESENTATIONS Hillsborough MPO -HART Operations and Maintenance Facility Study During the Go Hillsborough process, it became evident that HART could not engage in any significant expansion of service without providing for either expansion of the current 21st Avenue facility or to seek additional space outside of the current facility. In order to move forward with any future TDP programmed expansion, HART would need to first answer basic questions on facility footprint, requirements, location, basic layout, and cost. Steve Feigenbaum, HART Director of Service Development, introduced Kasey Cursey, AECOM and Allison Yeh, Hillsborough MPO, who provided a presentation answering the questions which will be included into the TDP process for future planning. A full copy of the presentation is available upon request from the Clerk of the Board at [email protected]. Committee member Kemp noted that transit agencies are moving to electric vehicles and asked about the impact of designing a facility for CNG. Mr. Feigenbaum explained that the current plan calls for transition of all vehicles to CNG and a decision to use electric vehicles would need to be made at a later date. Committee member Kemp asked about the footprint and space requirements for CNG. Mr. Feigenbaum responded that it is not large. He added that if there is a choice between two properties and only one has a line from Tampa Electric; the property with the line would be viewed more favorably.

Ms. Yeh added that it may be possible to reconfigure the site and advised that charging stations use space comparable to CNG fueling stations. Committee member Kemp asked if the intent is to establish a satellite facility rather than expanding the current facility. Mr. Feigenbaum explained that, there is not enough room available to expand the 21st Avenue facility. Ms. Yeh reported that Lynx shared a facility while waiting for their site to be built. Committee member Kemp noted that there were discussions about not storing buses under the expressway due to CNG and asked if that is the same situation with electric. Ms. Yeh agreed and commented that having a bus facility located under the expressway is not conducive for redevelopment and that she would need to get back to the Board regarding electric charging requirements. Mr. Feigenbaum added that more will be learned regarding electric buses over the next few years as California’s mandate will provide new data and best practices. Committee member Jacob stated that he is against putting a facility under an overpass. He asked if the magnitude of cost is inclusive and whether only certain vehicles, such as paratransit vans, would be moved to a satellite facility since the main facility is already fitted for CNG. Mr. Feigenbaum explained that the existing diesel vehicles are being replaced through attrition and the proportion of CNG vehicles would be much greater by the time a new facility is ready. He noted that the new facility would be either CNG or electric; however, it likely would not be both. Committee member Jacob asked if the renovation cost for a satellite facility incorporated other expenses incurred at the existing facility such as lost time and moving employees. He indicated this information will allow the Board to make an assessment and determine the impact of the investment. Ms. Yeh reported the costs reflected in the presentation are for a new facility and advised that she can provide the information at a later date. Mr. Feigenbaum explained that the intent of the presentation is to answer the questions that were raised regarding facility footprint, requirements, location, basic layout, and cost. He added that the additional information can be provided during the PD&E. Ms. Eagan stated that, when HART was receiving bids to renovate, an unsolicited bid to replace the facility was received. Mr. Seward explained that staff has been exploring whether renovating or replacing is the better investment for the federal funding and that it was determined that the replacement would be a fantastic opportunity to solve the current issues with the building. Mr. Seward noted that the new facility would not add capacity; however, it would solve the shortfalls of the current heavy

maintenance facility in terms of ADA compliance, CNG implementation, safety, and opportunities for employees to repair and work on the buses. He stated that staff will be coming back to the Board with the full process. Committee member Jacob asked where the facility would be located. Mr. Seward explained that there are a few options that are dependent on stormwater issues. Committee member Jacob stated that the Board agrees that it is difficult to increase the fleet and the ability to serve the community without a strong maintenance program in place. He commented that the existing facility has challenges and HART needs to incorporate new technologies. Committee member Jacob asked that the Board and staff continue to be aware of all costs, including personnel and maintenance redundancies, to make an informed decision on the direction the project should take and asked that the next steps in this project will include information on those aspects as well. Memorandum of Understanding between Hillsborough Transit Authority (HART) and Tampa Bay Area Regional Transportation Authority (TBARTA) for the Provision of Vanpool Services in FDOT Funded Transit Corridors This presentation supports Committee Action Item ~ Approve a Memorandum of Understanding between Hillsborough Transit Authority (HART) and Tampa Bay Area Regional Transportation Authority (TBARTA) for the Provision of Vanpool Services in FDOT Funded Transit Corridors.

HART, as a recipient of FDOT Transit Corridor funds, and TBARTA, as the regional vanpool coordinator, propose to jointly, promote and provide vanpool services within two transit corridors currently served by HART Routes 20X (Lutz Express) and 51X (New Tampa Express), as a pilot project. This is one part of a broader HART program with FDOT funding to offer ‘Customer Choice’ within these corridors that will also include local HyperLINK service and potential UberPool or LyftLine ridesharing services. Under this Memo of Understanding, TBARTA will promote and administer the vanpool service. HART will support the vanpool operation via 100% FDOT Corridor Grant funding. Steve Feigenbaum, Director of Service Development, and Michael Case, TBARTA, provided an overview of the proposed service and MOU. A full copy of the presentation is available upon request from the Clerk of the Board at [email protected]. Interim Committee Chair Jaroch asked who would receive the credit for ridership. Mr. Feigenbaum stated TBARTA. Committee member Jacob inquired about marketing. Mr. Feigenbaum indicated that a marketing plan will be developed in conjunction with TBARTA and the marketing would be targeted to the indicated corridors to engage those who are using or may want to use express service as vanpool may be a better alternative. Mr. Case added that Enterprise is a third party partner, and TBARTA and HART are able to leverage the resources Enterprise has to help market the program. He indicated that TBARTA, HART, and enterprise will work together to develop a comprehensive plan.

Committee member Jacob observed that the service is dependent on FDOT corridor funding and asked if the funding is dependent on any performance criteria or metrics. Mr. Feigenbaum stated that while FDOT does not have specific metrics or goals, they have indicated they would like to see the current situation improve. He reported that HART and TBARTA will work with them through this process and FDOT is very supportive of the program. Committee member Kemp stated she thinks the program is a good option for the routes that have the lowest ridership. She noted that the vanpool currently sees a good return of 46%. Interim Committee Chair Jaroch added that the program will likely get better ridership than the current express routes if there are no more transfers. Committee member Kemp explained that 82 out of 100 vans go to MacDill Air Force Base and that she would like to see the service expand going forward. COMMITTEE ACTION ITEMS

Authorize the Chief Executive Officer to Award the Facilities Condition Assessment Project to GLE Associates, Inc. for $92,530 Plus a 20 Percent Contingency of $18,506 for a Total Not-to-Exceed Amount of $111,036 for a 365 Day Period Committee member Kemp moved and Committee member Bowers seconded advancement of this item to the full Board of Directors at the July 17, 2017 regular Board meeting. All Finance and Audit Committee members present voted aye. The motion passed unanimously.

b. Approve a Memorandum of Understanding between Hillsborough Transit Authority (HART) and Tampa Bay Area Regional Transportation Authority (TBARTA) for the Provision of Vanpool Services in FDOT Funded Transit Corridors

Committee member Kemp moved and Committee member Jacob seconded advancement of this item to the full Board of Directors at the July 17, 2017 regular Board meeting. All Finance and Audit Committee members present voted aye. The motion passed unanimously. DISCUSSION ITEM

Monthly Financial Review At each scheduled Finance and Audit Committee meeting, HART Financial staff will present and

review the previous month’s financial and cash balance report prior to submitting to the full Board of Directors. The discussion will focus on Year to Date performance, cost drivers, and overall financial stewardship management.

Mr. Seward reviewed the Financial Snapshot and discussed the application process for the federal formula funding. Ms. Eagan advised that the process is one reason why HART is recommending putting ad valorem in the fund balance as this will help in the future with how the agency does business.

Interim Committee Chair Jaroch noted that the CAFR recommended that staff be more proactive in requesting funds monthly. Mr. Seward stated that staff does request authorized grant funds monthly. Interim Committee Chair Jaroch asked if there will be an update in the CEO Weekly. Ms. Eagan responded affirmatively. Mr. Seward added that the announcement was previously expected by Memorial Day. Ms. Eagan advised that the first Public Workshop on the Proposed Service Changes & Transit Development Plan Update will be later in the day and Customer Service reports they are already receiving questions. She stated that at the last Board meeting, a Special Board meeting was called and it will take place immediately following the regular Board meeting and the Public Hearing on the Proposed Program of Projects on July 17, 2017. Ms. Eagan added the there will also be two committee meetings in August, LSP on August 14 and Finance and Audit on August 21, as well as two nighttime Board meetings in September for the budget. Interim Committee Chair Jaroch noted that the TBARTA bill passed. Ms. Eagan confirmed that it will go into effect July 1 and will have a member HART appointed to the Board for the August meeting. ADJOURNMENT The meeting adjourned at 10:07 a.m.

PUBLIC COMMENTS ON NON-AGENDA ITEMS

There were no public comments on non-agenda items.

COMMITTEE REPORTS, ONLINE COMMENTS

Mr. Rich Clarendon, MPO Assistant Executive Director, provided the committee reports. All of the committees recommended approval of the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) Annual Update. The committees noted the following comments and concerns: (1) The Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) requested that the number of comments and concerns for and against Tampa Bay Next (TBNext) be documented in the TIP; (2) The Bicycle/Pedestrian Advisory Committee passed a motion recommending that the MPO consider making the Real Choices When Not Driving program the number one priority for the community; (3) The Livable Roadways Committee (LRC) wants agencies to set a goal of increasing walk/bike spending to at least one-percent of the transportation budgets. Also, the CAC, Technical Advisory Committee, LRC, and Policy Committees all recommended approval of the "Early Start" TIP Amendments, amending the TIP that is currently in effect. This is also on the agenda for approval today. The Policy Committee requested that FDOT take another look at the intersection of Kennedy Boulevard and Henderson Avenue for the backups that occur there on a regular basis. In addition, the committees reviewed and commented on reports about the Coast Bike program’s success over the last few years, the Innovation Gateway Project, and the TBNext Community meetings.

Meeting Summary June 13, 2017 Page 2

The Tampa Bay Area TMA Leadership Group met on June 2nd and members recommended a list of top priorities for the tri-county area. The priorities have been integrated and noted in the Hillsborough MPO’s drafted list of priority projects.

Several online comments were received from citizens concerning traffic solutions. In addition, twenty-one comments were provided in opposition to Tampa Bay Express/TBNext. Remarks were made for better transit, bike/walk connections, and better lighting. Thirteen commenters supported Tampa Bay Express/TBNext. Several employers commented stating that their employees commute and need reliable transportation to get to jobs throughout the region.

CONSENT AGENDA

A. Approval of Minutes – May 2, 2017

B. Committee Appointments C. Letter Requested by BPAC on Maintenance of Bike Lanes

A motion was made by Commissioner Sandra Murman to approve the Consent Agenda. The motion was seconded by Mayor Rick Lott and carried unanimously.

Commissioner Miller read a memorandum from Commissioner Stacy White into the meeting record. Commissioner White was unable to attend the June 13th meeting, and requested that his absence be excused, due to a family commitment.

ROLL-CALL VOTE: TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (TIP) “EARLY START” AMENDMENTS

A motion was made by Commissioner Sandra Murman to approve the TIP “Early Start” Amendments. The motion was seconded by Councilman Harry Cohen. Following a roll-call vote, the motion passed unanimously.

PUBLIC HEARING TO ADOPT THE TIP FOR 2017-2022

A. Transportation Improvement Program Annual Update

Sarah McKinley, MPO staff, provided an overview of the TIP for the period of October 1, 2017 – September 30, 2022. The TIP document shows funding amount and source, fiscal year, andproject location and phase for projects funded with state and federal dollars in Hillsborough County for the next five fiscal years. The TIP is coordinated and consistent with FDOT’s Work Program. The TIP also lists significant transportation projects drawn from the capital improvement programs of local governments and agencies, and identifies priorities for use of funds that may become available during the next year. The TIP must be submitted to the Florida Department of Transportation by July 15, 2017.

Meeting Summary June 13, 2017 Page 3

Following Ms. McKinley’s presentation, Commissioner Ken Hagan made a motion to reduce the public comment time limit of three minutes to two minutes. Following a roll-call vote, the motion passed with a vote of 12 to 3.

Councilman Cohen expressed concerns about the language in the presentation varying from language discussed and agreed upon at the TMA Leadership Group's meeting. Ms. McKinley’s presentation referred to express lanes being a priority. There was a long discussion with Pinellas and Pasco counties at the TMA meeting to have that language changed. Ms. Alden provided clarification on priority #40 for reconstruction of two interchanges (I-275/SR 60 and I-275/I-4) as shown in the proposed Hillsborough MPO List of Priority Projects. The language referring to construction of express lanes was removed by the TMA Group, and has been removed from the Hillsborough MPO List of Priority Projects. Ms. Alden apologized that the slide had not been corrected.

Commissioner Murman did not recall the TMA Leadership Group discussing the Fletcher and Gateway transit centers being part of the priority list. Ms. Alden noted that the TMA Leadership Group’s recommendation is provided in the board agenda packet, under the Committee Reports. The Fletcher and Gateway transit centers were included by the TMA last year, and this year the Leadership Group did not request removal of that language; therefore, it remains.

B. Public Comments

Approximately 150 citizens attended the meeting, with sixty-two people signing up for public comment. Of the speakers, 10 were for and 45 against the Tampa Bay Express (TBX) project, with 7 speaking to resolving congestion and transit issues. Other projects mentioned, positively, were the Green ARTery trail, I-75 at Big Bend Road, and the need for improved transit. The MPO also facilitated an online chat, for people who could not attend in person or who preferred to provide comments in writing. About 15 people were on that chat at any given time during the public hearing, and 7 written comments were received, in opposition to TBX or for improved public transit.

C. Board Discussion and Action

After almost four hours of public comment, board members discussed the draft TIP.

Councilman Maniscalco stated that he does not understand why express toll lanes are needed

and how they will change the dynamics of transportation. He would like to see people off the

road, better transportation options, and an improved bus system.

Meeting Summary June 13, 2017 Page 4

Councilman Maniscalco made a motion to remove all TBX elements from the TIP. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Kemp. Following a roll-call vote, the motion failed with a vote of 3 to 12.

Commissioner Kemp thanked residents for coming out to express concerns regarding TBX and TBNext. She hoped that more productivity would have been seen by now on transportation, but noted there have been successes in community engagement efforts. She stated that it’s

time for a plan to move people and not just single-occupant vehicles. She agrees that road and transit improvements need to be made.

Commissioner Kemp made a motion to remove segments 6, 7, and 8 from the TIP: the downtown interchange; I-275 north of downtown; and I-4 east of downtown. The motion died for lack of a second.

Commissioner Murman thanked residents for coming out and for their passion. She stated the energy shown will help with a solution. She encouraged citizens to continue working together on transportation solutions.

Commissioner Murman made a motion regarding the TIP, that FDOT District 7 continue the structure of communication and feedback between the MPO and the citizens, with quarterly updates on the subject of TBNext. Provide updates on mitigation efforts for the neighborhoods; community engagement; status of the PD&E [environmental impact studies]; options for premium transit; efforts to report on the human impact of the project; and to continue the reevaluation process on TBNext and the different segments. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Crist.

Chairman Miller passed the gavel to Vice Chair, Councilman Harry Cohen, and stated that a

similar motion was put in place last year and the year before. He expressed concerns that he

does not feel that FDOT is going to respond to requests. Stipulations that were requested from

FDOT last year have still not been put in place. The gavel was returned to Commissioner Miller.

Councilman Viera also thanked citizens for coming out. He wants to hold FDOT accountable

for community outreach. He would like FDOT to reach out to mosques, African American

churches, and organizations that did not receive previous outreach. He would also like to see

accountability mechanisms put into place. He suggested a system that would benefit all people;

in addition to a transit connector between USF and downtown Tampa.

Mr. Trent Green thanked citizens for coming out and showing continued dedicated interest in

the transportation initiative. Mr. Green wanted to make a separate motion regarding property

acquisition in Section 6 of the TBX project, the downtown interchange. He stated that continued

acquisition of properties is destabilizing communities. He moved that this activity be placed on

hold until results are received from the new SEIS Study. The motion was put on hold, and later

withdrawn after Ms. Alden clarified that the only funding in the TIP for property acquisition for

TBX is for the Westshore interchange, none at the downtown interchange.

Meeting Summary June 13, 2017 Page 5

Ms. Cindy Stuart commented on what actions the board can take to hold FDOT accountable.

Commissioner Murman stated that FDOT answers to the governor and the board does not

have any authority over FDOT. She also stated that the new team of FDOT has been willing

to work with the board and she feels that they will fulfill the requests. The proof will be over the

next year in the quarterly updates.

Commissioner Miller stated that if action is not taken on the TIP, funding will be jeopardized.

Joe Waggoner made an amendment to the motion to require FDOT to report back to the board at the next board meeting on what the deliverables are for Commissioner Murman’s motion. The amendment was seconded by Wallace Bowers. There was no discussion on the amendment. The amendment to the motion passed unanimously.

There being no further discussion on the amended motion, the amended motion passed unanimously.

Councilman Cohen stated that today’s meeting discussion represents a true labor of love. About a month ago, he bought a newspaper when he was going through Newark's airport with a headline of, "Your Commute Sucks" in the New York Post. That city has a combination of roads, trains, ferries, and various other options, and this shows that transportation is a national problem. The country is growing and the infrastructure has not been maintained, and we find ourselves dealing with all kinds of issues. Councilman Cohen stated that multiple transit alternatives are needed for the community, and roads need to be enhanced. Investments in every form of multi-modal transportation need to be made to deal with the anticipated population growth. Discussions must continue in order to evaluate different options. Commissioner Murman made a motion for approval of the TIP. The motion was seconded by Reverend Bowers. There was no further discussion, and the motion passed with a vote of 12 to 3. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S REPORT The Executive Director's report was provided in the board member's folders. The board members did not have any questions about Ms. Alden's report. OLD BUSINESS & NEW BUSINESS The Chair announced that the MPO Board will be in recess for July, and the Policy Committee will recess in June. There was no further old or new business for discussion. ADJOURNMENT A quorum was maintained for the duration of the meeting. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 10:25 p.m.

STATUS REPORT ~ FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS Period Ending May 31, 2017 Key Information Points: We are 67% through the Fiscal Year with our target to trend as closely to that as possible

with expenditures.

Year to date operating expenses are at 71% of the annual budget but when normalized for one time impacts and spread upfront costs evenly through the year they are at 69%.

Key Takeaways: Fare revenues continue to track down with correlated ridership decreases – will continue to

monitor; Salary expenditures are tracking higher than the target which is primarily due to the front-

loaded ATU retro-pay adjustment that occurred in December – when normalized by removing that upfront cost, salaries are trending at 73%;

Fringes continue outpacing our target and will continue to be monitored; as discussed, this is being driven primarily by medical claims and we are looking at options for FY2018 to change this trend;

Operational Contract Services is tracking near target at 68% with front-loaded annual payments on several contracts; when normalized for a 12-month period, this category is spending below target at 60%;

Utilities are running higher than the target at 69% due to WIFI on the buses. Other Administrative Expenses are near the target at 68% which is primarily due to a

onetime expense for the early payoff of financed equipment.

HART’s cash is managed in two accounts; for the primary account HART utilizes the State of Florida’s local government investment pool, Florida PRIME, as its primary source of cash holdings. Considered low-risk and conservative in its investment strategy, Florida PRIME allows HART to attain a higher yield compared to that of a typical bank cash-flow concentration account. The second account is a concentration account at Bank of America for receiving deposits and managing Payroll and Accounts Payable disbursements. The graphic below depicts the “cash on hand” as of the day listed, as it is fluid and changes day to day.

County and Municipal Land Use Activities HART staff reviewed eight City of Tampa and 17 Hillsborough County proposed projects during May 2017. Improved pedestrian access was recommended for all projects. HART recommended bus stop ADA improvements for the Wawa minor site plan at the southeast corner of Hillsborough Avenue and Kelly Road.

Planning Commission-Comprehensive Plan Amendments Six proposed future land use amendments to the Hillsborough County Comprehensive Plan were reviewed for the Planning Commission. Four of the amendments are significant to future travel needs. Three of the amendments support uses for single-family residential units that will be spread out in various regions of Hillsborough County (2,500+ acres) where there is no local transit services. The amendments will allow up to six units per acre. This includes the surrounding areas of Lithia Pinecrest Road, planned villages within the surrounding areas of the Balm-Boyette and Balm-Riverview Roads and the areas surrounding the frontage road of I-4 in Plant City. Future planning for alternative travel is included in the HART comments. One of the amendments revises policies under Objective 19 to support transit-oriented design.
