  1. PADOT Presentation Tuesday, January 3, 2012

  2. HISTORY OF RRTA • Red Rose Transit Formed in 1973 as Lancaster City and County Joint Transit Authority under the Municipal Authorities Act of 1945. • Took over operation of service from Conestoga Transportation Company in late 1975 and purchased assets for $65,000. • Original Board comprised five members – Two by City, Two by County and One joint member • 1977 Board expanded to seven members • 1992 Board expanded to nine members after consolidation with LISTS (Shared-Ride Service)

  3. ORGANIZATION AL CHART - 2011

  4. Ridership Trends FY 06 – FY 11

  5. Operating Expense Trends FY 06 – FY 11

  6. Expense Factors • Fuel Cost – RRTA has locked-in pricing since 2006, contract runs April 1 – March 31. SR – Fixed price set in budget at $3.50/gal, adjusted (+/-) monthly to DOE price. • Health Care – Negotiated clause to limit increases in 2007 at 11.5%, in 2009 at 8%-RRTA/4%-Union. Split 50/50 over 12%. • Shared Ride - MATP Transportation

  10. Budget Projections • 100 Bus Issue – Systems in urbanized areas over 200,000 in population can not use 5307 funds for operating. • RRTA is currently grandfathered at 50% by SAFTEA-LU until Re-authorization. • 200 Transit Systems nationwide negatively affected by the rule. • In PA – 13 Systems effected, COLT, LCTA, LANTA, BARTA, RRTA, RABBIT, CAT, Beaver, Westmoreland, SVSS, EMTA, Mid-Mon, and Pottstown. • RRTA leads the 100 Bus Coalition to change the language.

  11. Budget Projections • 100 Bus Language – Congressman Pitts – HR 3545, introduced December 1, 2011 with four co-sponsors. (9 Co-sponsors as of 12-28-11) “Public transit systems that operate less than 75 peak buses can use 50% of 5307 funds for operating, systems operating between 75-100 peak buses can use up to 25% of 5307 funds for operating, and systems operating over 100 peak buses can not use 5307 funds for operating”. Without a fix to this issue, RRTA will lose $1 Million in operating funds!!

  12. Budget Projections Assumptions – 7% annual expense growth, fuel/health care Federal Funding remains flat, but 100 Bus Language adopted Annual fare increases of $.10 per year State funding decreasing due to lower ridership, service reductions, economy ADA costs increase by 3% for paratransit service, ridership level Revenue increase from Queen Street Station –Parking and Lease Space Ridership rebounding from FY 2009, up 4.0% in FY 2012

  13. Queen Street Station – Projected Revenue RRTA - PARKING GARAGE$55.00Revenue 397 Spaces MonthlyAnnual Monthly Passes (75% Occup) $16,376.25$196,515.00 Village (3x wk) $4/space-100sp $5,200.00 $62,400.00 Lease Space - $8 sq. ft. 10,478 sq. ft $6,985.33$83,824.00 TOTAL$342,739.00 Expense Ticket Printing $10,000.00 Alarm Monitoring $2,000.00 Elevator Maint.

  14. Cost Savings Measures • Participate in statewide pool (SAFTI) for P&L and WC • Participate in public pool for Health Insurance • Reduced Administrative staff by two positions in FY 11 • Reduced Utility costs with “green” infrastructure – solar, geothermal and waste oil burners – 50% reduction • Bid out banking services, saved security and banking fees • Negotiated clause on Health Care to cap increases at 8%

  15. Energy Savings First Year - Facility • Facility project added 2,778 sq ft of new office space and 9,000 sq ft of bus storage space. Before Renovation - Used 34,387 KwH/Month Electric - $2,614/mn Used over 9,000 gal. of heating oil/yr - $27,000 After Renovation - Use 34,629 KwH/Month – Solar Ave. 14,678 KwH/Mn Electric bill average 19,951 KwH/mn No heating oil purchased for two years. SAVING $2,360/mn *Electric rates deregulated after project completion - $.076/Kwh to $.127/KwH
