HUSTON, CITY MANAGER COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT PROJECT FUNDING FOR THE MOTOR VEHICLE REGISTRATION SUBVENTION FUNDS (ASSEMBLY BILL 2766) PROGRAM Each year the City Council authorizes the use of the City's annual disbursement of Assembly Bill (AB) 2766 funds to offset costs for state mandated vehicle emission reduction programs implemented by the City of Tustin. This year the City Council is being requested to allocate the Fiscal Year (FY) 2009/2010 AB 2766 funds to fund a portion of the cost of an alternative fuel street sweeper. RECOMMENDATION That the City Council: 1. Authorize the use of City's AB 2766 disbursement to fund a portion of the cost of an alternative fuel street sweeper; 2. Authorize the City Manager to approve additional AB 2766 expenditures, consistent with Air Quality Management District guidance, throughout the 2009/2010 program year as needed; 3. Approve the supplemental appropriation of $176,000 from the Equipment Replacement Fund (Fund 84); and 4. Approve the supplemental appropriation of $169,000 from the SCAQMD Fund (Fund 03). FISCAL IMPACT Since 1991, AB 2766 funds have been made available to local governments for use in offsetting state mandated vehicle emissions reduction programs. Tustin will receive approximately $82,000 for the 2009/2010 program year. The use of these funds reduces General Fund responsibility to fund state mandated emission reduction programs. The City Council Report Project Funding for AB 2766 Program April 6, 2010 Page 2 cost of the alternative fuel street sweeper is not currently budgeted. Appropriations will be necessary. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION On September 30, 1990, the State Legislature authorized the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) to impose an additional motor vehicle registration fee of two dollars ($2) per vehicle to finance the implementation of transportation measures embodied in the Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) and provisions of the California Clean Air Act. Commencing in Fiscal Year 1991-1992, subvention disbursements were made available to cities and agencies. Forty percent of the funds collected from the Department of Motor Vehicle registration fees are returned to local governments for local vehicle emission reduction programs. AB 2766 turn-back funds must be used solely to reduce pollution from motor vehicles and for related planning, monitoring, enforcement, and technical studies necessary for the implementation of state and regional clean air goals. PROGRAM AND BUDGET INFORMATION In past years, the City of Tustin has used AB 2766 funds to offset the costs associated with the following air emission reduction programs: FY 1991-92 Project Vehicle conversion to propane FY 1992-93 Project No programs funded FY 1993-94 Projects Commuter Rail Station • Partial funding of Air Quality Element of the General Plan • Personnel costs for administration FY 1994-95 Projects Commuter Rail Station • Personnel costs for administration • Training/Save Our Air Rideshare (SOAR) Program incentives FY 1995-96 Projects Commuter Rail Station • Personnel costs for administration • Training/SOAR Program incentives FY 1996-97 Projects Commuter Rail Station • SOAR Program Costs • SOAR Compensation Pay • Computer Software FY 1997-98 Projects Commuter Rail Station • SOAR Compensation Pay City Council Report Project Funding for AB 2766 Program April 6, 2010 Page 3 FY 1998-99 Projects Commuter Rail Station • SOAR Compensation Pay FY 1999-00 Projects Commuter Rail Station • Air Quality Technical Assistance FY 2000-01 Projects Commuter Rail Station • Air Quality Technical Assistance FY 2001-02 Project Commuter Rail Station FY 2002-03 Project Commuter Rail Station FY 2003-04 Project Commuter Rail Station FY 2004-05 Projects Pedestrian Enhancement Project (Red Hill) Alternative Fuel Street Sweepers Commuter Rail Station FY 2005-06 Projects Pedestrian Enhancement Project (Red Hill) Pedestrian Enhancement Project (First St) FY 2006-07 Project Traffic Signalization Project (Park Avenue) FY 2007-08 Project Traffic Signalization Project (Warner Avenue) FY 2008-09 Project Alternative Fuel Street Sweeper (portion - proposed to be combined with 09-10 allocation) PROPOSED FISCAL YEAR 2009-2010 PROGRAM ALLOCATION ALTERNATIVE FUEL STREET SWEEPER -The cost of the vehicle is approximately $345,000 compared to about $260,000 for a conventional fuel street sweeper. For maximum cost-effectiveness, AB 2766 funds may be used for the cost difference between a conventional fuel and an alternative fuel vehicle, but may also be used to fund all or a portion of the cost of the alternative fuel vehicle. Staff recommends that a total of $169,000, including $81,600 in AB 2766 Fiscal Year 2009-2010 turn-back funds, $100 in interest income received through investment of the turn-back funds, and $87,300 in carryover funds from Fiscal Year 2008-2009, be used to fund a portion (about half) of the cost of an alternative fuel street sweeper.
