CityCouncil | 2018-03-06 | 14 | Mayor Spencer inquired whether there will be money from another source. The Assistant Community Development Director responded the total cost is $457,000, but $100,000 has already been raised. Mayor Spencer inquired how much money is coming out of the General Fund. The Assistant Community Development Director responded the money is split between two sources; stated $88,000 per source per year is $177,000. The City Manager stated the money will come from end of the year surplus. Mayor Spencer stated there is no end of the year surplus. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft stated the staff report states the funds will be from Measure B and BB, which would have been used on pavement management, and the General Fund. Mayor Spencer stated $88,000 is out of the General Fund. The City Manager stated large property transfers occurred this year that exceed $500,000 in transfer tax; the $88,000 can come out of additional funds; the matter was taken off Consent because staff felt it was a policy decision of whether to go from 20 to 30 minutes. Mayor Spencer inquired whether going back to 30 minutes will not require General Fund money. 1:55 The Assistant Community Development Director responded Line 19 will continue to run indefinitely; stated staff wanted to ask Council if they want to fund the gap to keep the 20 minute service. The City Manager stated the matter is dependent on the delay in the development projects. Vice Mayor Vella inquired why Council is hearing the matter tonight and whether it is a time sensitive issue. The Assistant Community Development Director responded AC Transit needs to be told immediately whether or not Council wants to shut down the service. Councilmember Oddie inquired whether going back to 30 minutes would result in fewer riders. The Assistant Community Development Director responded it is very hard to estimate.
