The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (SB1 Beall) provides new funding for the maintenance and repair of local streets and roads through a Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). To be eligible for funding, the City must submit a proposed project list to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) by September 15, 2017, along with a resolution documenting the approval of the City's amended capital improvement budget to include the project to receive RMRA funding. Staff recommends the use of RMRA funding to supplement funding for the MacArthur Boulevard / University Drive Pavement Rehabilitation project (18R23). RECOMMENDATION: a) Determine that the action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because it will not result in a physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly; and b) Approve Resolution No. 2017-54, A Resolution of the City Council or the City of Newport Beach, California, Amending the Adopted Capital Improvement Program Budget for Fiscal Year 2017-18 to Include Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) Funding Under the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 — Local Streets and Roads Program and Approving Budget Amendment No. 18BA-002, increasing revenue estimates by $481,309.00 in Account 12101-431127 and appropriating $481,309.00 to Account 12101110-980000-18R23 for MacArthur Boulevard/University Drive Pavement Rehabilitation project. 6-1 Resolution Amending the Capital Improvement Program Budget to Include RMRA Funding from the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 and Budget Amendment August 8, 2017 Page 2 FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: The Budget Amendment records and appropriates $481,309 in revenue from the State Road Maintenance and Repair Account (RMRA) and appropriates $481,309 in proposed expenditures. The revenue will be posted to the Gas Tax-RMRA revenue account, 12101- 431127, and expenses will be posted to the MacArthur Boulevard/University Drive Pavement Rehabilitation project account in the Capital Improvements Program Budget, 12101110-980000-18R23. DISCUSSION: The state of California imposes per -gallon excise taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel, sales taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel, and registration taxes on motor vehicles with allocations dedicated to transportation purposes. The City of Newport Beach receives transportation funding from the State in the form of grants or direct allocation of Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax (Gas Tax) through the Highway Users Tax Account (HUTA). The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (SB1 Beall) is a major new investment in California's transportation systems of about $5.2 billion per year. The Act increases per gallon fuel excise taxes, diesel fuel sales taxes and vehicle registration taxes, stabilizes fuel tax rates and provides for inflationary adjustments to rates in future years. The new law requires the California Transportation Commission to adopt performance criteria to gauge progress, incorporate program oversight and financial accountability, and support efficient use of funds. The Act more than doubles local streets and road funds allocated through the Highway Users Tax Account, allocating funds from new taxes through a new Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). RMRA receives funds from the following new taxes/fees imposed under the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017: Tax/Fee Type Timeframe Increase Gasoline Excise Tax November 1, 2017 12 cents /gallon Diesel Fuel Excise Tax November 1, 2017 20 cents /gallon Transportation Improvement Fee based on value of motor vehicle January 1, 2018 $25-$175 (60% will pay $50 or less) Zero Emissions Vehicle Fee July 1, 2020 $100 (model year 2020 or later) RMRA local streets and roads allocations must be used for projects that include, but are not limited to, the following: • Road maintenance and rehabilitation • Safety projects • Railroad grade separations • Traffic control devices 6-2 Resolution Amending the Capital Improvement Program Budget to Include RMRA Funding from the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 and Budget Amendment August 8, 2017 Page 3 • Complete street components, "including active transportation purposes, pedestrian and bicycle safety projects, transit facilities, and drainage and storm - water capture projects in conjunction with any other allowable project • Match requirement to obtain state or federal funds for eligible projects. It is estimated the City of Newport Beach will receive $481,309 in fiscal year 2017-18 from RMRA funding. To be eligible for funding, the City must submit a proposed project list to the CTC by September 15, 2017, along with a resolution documenting the approval of the City's amended capital improvement budget to include the project to receive RMRA funding. Staff recommends the use of RMRA funding to supplement funding for the MacArthur Boulevard / University Drive Pavement Rehabilitation project (18R23). Attachment C is a RMRA Project List, providing details about this project. Since Newport Beach has an average Pavement Condition Index that meets or exceeds 80, Newport Beach may spend its RMRA funds on a broader range of transportation priorities. In fiscal year 2018-19, the City's share of RMRA funding is estimated to be $1,443,842. A list of projects will be developed with future CIP budget processes. In addition to annual formula funding, the City will be eligible to compete for additional funding for active transportation and complete streets projects, and other improvements in the near future. Additional information can be found at www.rebuildingca.ca.gov. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.

In addition, these projects are sometimes coordinated with other improvement projects such as water and wastewater pipeline projects that tend to have significant impacts on the pavement. The streets will be overlayed with Asphalt Rubber Hot Mix (ARHM) which contains recycled tires. Recycling tires is beneficial as it diverts material away from the landfill. ARHM is also a superior material compared to conventional asphalt concrete (no recycled tires). It rides quieter and retains its dark color longer. There are existing bike lanes and sidewalks on both sides of MacArthur Boulevard and University Drive that will be preserved as complete streets elements. The benefit of rehabilitated pavement is a smoother, quieter and safer ride.
