Amendment Four to AB2766 Memorandum of Understanding
(MOU)
1. Approve Amendment Four to AB2766 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
between CVAG and Member Jurisdictions for the purpose of the Regional PM10
Street Sweeping Program and related activities commencing July 1, 2016
through June 30, 2020; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment Four to the AB276
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
Strategic Plan Obiective:
N/A
Discussion:
Per the Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG), there are three primary
sources of funding for the regional street sweeping program: Mobile Source Air Pollution
Reduction Review Committee (MSRC) grant funding, Colmac funding associated with
mitigating air pollution impacts from a power plant, and AB2766 funds that are provided
to cities/county from South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) as a result of
a $4 per vehicle surcharge on annual registration fees that must be used to reduce air
pollution from motor vehicles. In previous years, as CVAG's sources of funding (MSRC
and Colmac) either increase/decrease or program costs increase/decrease, the
percentage of AB2766 funds from the cities/county to make up the shortfall has also
been adjusted. The cities current share of AB2766 funding is 60%; however, CVAG is
recommending that the cities portion increase from 60% to 75% and that the MOU time
period increase from two years to four years (2020). The CVAG Energy and
Environment, Technical Advisory, and Executive Committees have reviewed and
approved this recommendation.

This recommendation is based on changes to MSRC funding. MSRC's annual Local
Government Match Program (LGMP) has offered a separate category to support the
Coachella Valley's Regional PM10 Street Sweeping Program. The category initially
established a targeted funding level of $250,000 to be awarded on a dollar for dollar
basis annually. Beginning in FY 2014/15, this amount was reduced from $250,000 to
$125,000 annually and appears to be the case for FY 2016/17, which may continue in
future years. There are no expected changes in Colmac funding, which is set by the
County of Riverside at $150,000 through 2019/2020. Additionally, program costs are
not expected to change; however, with the revenue reduction, an increase in cities'
share is required in order to maintain the Regional Street Sweeping Program at its
current standard.
Fiscal Analysis:
Increasing the City's AB2766 Funding share to 75% will not negatively impact the
General Fund; however, it will reduce the amount of funding for City project(s) that may
be considered in the future. The City received $62,553.11 in AB2766 funds in FY 14/15
and $47,244.09 for the first three quarters of FY 15/16. Payments to CVAG were
$37,531.34 (FY 14/15) and $28,346 (FY 15/16 first three quarters) at the 60%
allocation. Based on the estimated revenue of approximately $62,000 with a 75%
allocation (or $46,500) to CVAG, there will remain a balance of approximately $15,500
yearly.
