Review the January 2004 Transit Service Reduction Plan: 1) Receive staff responses to public comments made during the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) comment period for the January 2004 Transit Service Reduction Plan; 2) Adopt a finding that there is a fiscal emergency, as defined by Public Resources Code (P.R.C.) §21080.32(d)(2), caused by failure of VTA revenues to adequately fund VTA services, programs and facilities; 3) Invoke a Statutory Exemption under CEQA, P.R.C. §21080.32 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15285 (Transit Agency Responses to Revenue Shortfalls) for the purpose of implementing the January 2004 Transit Service Reduction Plan; and 4) Approve the service modifications included in the January 2004 Transit Service Reduction Plan, Alternatives A and B. Alternative A could potentially mean a combined reduction in bus and light rail services of approximately 21%. Alternative B will result in a combined reduction in bus and light rail service of approximately 3%. In addition, authorize staff to implement either Alternative A or Alternative B of the Plan in January 2004. Implementation of Alternative B is preferred, but would be contingent upon securing the authority to bond against Measure A funds. (Martin)
