BARRY, AICP ;� Contra COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR Costa �ounty DATE: ,lune 10, 2003 G, 7 SUBJECT: West Contra Costa Transportation Advisory Committee budget and work program for Fiscal Year 2003-04 SPECIFIC REQUEST{S} OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND ANIS JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATIONS APPROVE the attached budget and work program and AUTHORIZE staff to transmit this approval to the West Contra Costa Transportation Advisory Committee. FISCAL IMPACT NONE to the General Fund. The County pays its annual membership dues to the subject committee using Measure C return-to-source funds and County Road funds. BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS The County is one of nine member agencies of the West Contra Costa Transportation Advisory Committee (WCCTAC). WCCTAC is the regional transportation planning committee for West County under the Measure C Countywide Transportation Improvement and Growth Management Program. As a party to the WCCTAC joint exercise of powers agreement, all jurisdictions including the County pay annual membership dues to support WCCTAC operations. The County contributes 10 percent of the WCCTAC budget each year. For the proposed budget for FY 2003-04, this would result in dues of$18,110 for the County, nearly$2,000 less than last year's contribution. The reduction is due to the fact that an additional seat has been created on the WCCTAC Board for the WestCAT bus transit agency. With an additional seat on the agency, the other members' dues are slightly lower. Staff has reviewed the scope of work and budget and finds the documents adequate. Staff recommends the Board approve them. WCCTAC has asked the member jurisdictions for approval or comments by June 13. The WCCTAC Board is scheduled to adopt a work scope and budget on June 27.
