Tri-Valley Transportation Development Fee
Joint Powers Agreement
Report Prepared by: Lee S. Thompson, Public Works Director
EXHIBITS ATTACHED:
1. Resolution No. 142-97 Approving Principles of Agreement
for Adoption of the Tri-Valley Transportation Development Fee

RECOMMENDATION: - ~ Receive Staff Report
~'-(:;,.~: Adopt Resolution Approving Joint Exercise of
Powers Agreement
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION: The Tri- V alley Transportation Council (TVTC) has been working for
several years on common transportation issues, as well as on a proposal to establisb a regional
transportation fee which would be collected on new development. On November 18, 1997, the Council
adopted a "Resolution Approving Principles of Agreement for Adoption of the TIi-Valley Transportation
Development Fee" (Exhibit 1). Since that time, the TvrC bas prepared a draft "Joint Exercise of Powers
Agreement Pertaining to Tri-Valley Transportation Development Fees for Traffic Mitigation" (Exhibit 2).
At its Apri122, 1998, meeting, the TVTC unanimously recommended the approval of the proposed Joint
Powers Agreement (Attachment 1). The other parties to the agreement will be considering this same joint
powers agreement at their first meetings in May.
SUMMARY OF JOINT EXERCISE OF POWERS AGREEMENT:
Parties. The Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement (JEPA) is between the Counties of Alameda and Contra
Costa., tbe Cities ofDub1in, Livermore, San Ramon and Plea.santon, and the Town ofDanville. It does not
create a new legal entity (Section 22) but, rather, establishes the mechanism for pooling the traffic impact
fee revenues for payment to "project sponsors" for design and construction of the selected transportation
improvements.

Tri- Va.llev Transportation Develooment Fee. Each party agrees to impose a "Tri- V alley TransportÍ1tion
Development Fee" on new development (Section 5). The Fee will be used to pay for eleven (II)
"Transportation Improvement Projects" in the Tri- Valley area (Section 8). The first project to be funded
with the Fee revenues will be the 1-580/I-680 Interchange project for local matching requirements. .
The Fee will be 51,500 per singIe-fa.rnily dwelling unit, $1,050 per multi·fa.rnily dwelling unit, 51 per square
foot for office and reta.il, 5.75 per square foot for industrial, and 51,500 per average a.m./p.m. peak hour
trip for other uses (Section 9). The agreement provides that the parties' ordinances or resolutions will
provide for automatic increase in the Fees by the change in the cost of construction and other costs
(Section 13).
The parties will adopt the Fee so that it will be effective on September 1, 1998, in all jurisdictions (Section
10). Staff will retum at a future meeting with a proposed resolution for the Council to consider for
adoption of the Fee, together with a reduction in the City's Eastern Dublin Traffic Impact Fee for these
regional projects which overlap.
Treasurer. Through the TVTC, the parties will unanimously select the finance officer of one jurisdiction to
act as the "Treasurer" (Section 2[m]). The duties of the Treasurer are specified in Section 4 and include
keeping a record of the Fees paid by each party (subsection [a]); disbursement of the Fees to entities for
planning, design and construction of the Transportation Improvement Projects (subsection [fj); and
accounting for the Fee revenues (subsection [i)). The party which acts as the Treasurer will be reimbursed
for the time and expense of such duties (Section 4[j], Section 14).
Collection of Fee. Once the Fee is effective, each party will collect the Fee. Each party will transmit to the
Treasurer at least 80% of the Fee revenues on a quarterly basis (Section 6). If the City retains 20% of the .
Fees, it must use those revenues for one of the eleven projects listed in Section 8.
I·580/I·680 Interchan¡re Proiect. The first project to receive Fee revenues will be the I·580/I-680
Interchange project which is being constructed by Ca.ltrans.
Dublin entered into a "Loca.l Match Agreement" with Alameda County Transportation Authority (ACTA)
in May of 1997 whereby the City of Dublin conunitted to contribute a tota.l of$2,043,560 beginning in the
1996-97 fiscai year and ending in the 2000/01 fiscal year. With the exception ofDanville, the other parties
all entered into Loca.l Match Agreements with ACTA as well. These agreements enabled ACTA to
provide the necessary funding to Caltrans so it could proceed with the interchange project in advance of
imposition of the proposed Tri- Valley Transportation Development Fee.
Because six of the seven jurisdictions have Local Match Agreements with conunitments for differing
amounts to be paid at different times, the JEP A includes provisions in Section 7 specifically written to
protect those parties with Loca.l Match Agreements.
The Treasurer will receive the Fees from the parties and will remit the Fees directly to ACTA (Section
4[b )). Section 7[b] requires the Treasurer to provide both ACT A and the parties with an accounting of the
payments made to ACTA in order that both ACTA and the parties can track the amount of Fees received
by ACTA from those parties with ''Loca.l Match" obligations to ACTA.
If the combined parties collect more in Fee revenues than their ''Local Match" obligations, the parties will.
be in compliance with the individual "Local Match Agreements," regardless of which entity the Fees come
from. However, if the parties collect less in any year in Fees than the total "Local Math" obligation, there
2
·
·
·
will be a "shortfall" in Fees which will have to be paid to ACT A pursuant to the "Local Match
Agreements" Section 7[c] specifies how a "shortfa.ll" win be funded. It provides examples which show
that it is possible for one or more parties to have to use funds other than Fee revenues to meet the
obligation to ACTA If that occurs, Section 7[e] provides for reimbursement from Fee revenues.
Section 7[ d) provides that those parties that have met their "Local Match Agreements" with revenues other
than the Fee will be reimbursed from Fee revenues after the tota.! "Local Match" obligation of all parties is
paid to ACT A. To date, the only parties that have made such payments to ACTA are Dublin and
Pleasanton. Section 7[d] provides that Dublin will be reimbursed in the amount of$753,500 plus interest
from Fee revenues. In addition, the City will be reimbursed for the additional payment it must make to
ACTA by the end of the 1997.98 fiscal year (approximately 5171,290) from Fee revenues after ACTA
receives its total "Loca1 match" of 55,548,300 Oess the contributions by Dublin and Pleasanton).
Section 7[e] provides that any party that must make up a "shortfall," as discussed above, will be
reimbursed from Fee revenues after ACT A receives the entire "Local Match" and reimbursement is paid
pursuant to Section 7[ d].
Stratelric Exoenditure Plan. The TVTC is to prepare a Strategic Expenditure Plan (SEP) which must be
approved by the parties unanimously (Section 11 [ cD. The SEP will include the next project or projects to
be funded with the Fee revenues after the I-580/I-680 Interchange project (Section 11[b D· The SEP will
include provisions for indemnification and insurance, as appropriate (Section 11 [b D·
Credit Or Reimbursement For Developer-Constructed proiects. As with the City's Eastern Dublin Traffic
Impact Fee program, it is possible that a developer may construct all or a portion of one or more of the
Transportation Improvement Projects. With respect to Transportation Improvement Projects that are
included in the SEP as "funded" projects (i.e., the next project eligible for the fees), Section 15 provides
that a developer would be entitled to a credit against the Fee in the amount of the project constructed and,
if the cost of the project were in excess of his Fees, the developer would be entitled to reimbursement ftom
Fees collected in the future (Section 15[a».
If the developer constructs all or a portion of a Transportation Improvement projecrt which is not listed in
the SEP as a "funded" project, he will be eligible for reimbursement only, and only if the Project becomes a
"funded" project in the SEP within ten years (Section 15 [b D·
In both scenarios, reimbursement will be only from the Fee revenues and will terminate in ten years.
Term Of The Jena And Fee. The JEPA provides that the Fee will remain in effect until the Transportation
Improvement Projects are constructed. This commitment is more in the nature of a political commitment
than a legal commitment jnasmuch as the current Council cannot "contract away" the police power of a
future Council which may wish to modifY or repea.l the Fee.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Council adopt the Resolution Approving the Agreement (Exhibit 2).
