A Member/Alternate who wishes to leave the meeting after attendance is taken but before remaining items are voted on shall announce his/her name and that he/she is leaving the meeting. Basic Agenda Item Discussion. The Chair announces the agenda item number and states the subject. The Chair calls upon the appropriate staff member or Board Member to report on the item. The Chair asks members of the Board/Committee if they have any questions or comments on the item. General discussion ensues. The Chair calls for public comment based on “Request to Speak” forms which may be submitted. Following public comment, the Chair announces that public comment is closed and asks if there is any further discussion by members of the Board/Committee. The Chair calls for a motion from members of the Board/Committee. Upon a motion, the Chair announces the name of the member who makes the motion. Motions require a second by a member of the Board/Committee. Upon a second, the Chair announces the name of the Member who made the second, and the vote is taken. The “aye” votes in favor of the motion shall be made collectively. Any Member who wishes to oppose or abstain from voting on the motion shall individually and orally state the Member’s “nay” vote or abstention. Members present who do not individually and orally state their “nay” vote or abstention shall be deemed, and reported to the public, to have voted “aye” on the motion.

The Vote as specified in the SBCTA Administrative Code and SANBAG Bylaws. Each Member of the Board of Directors shall have one vote. In the absence of the official representative, the Alternate shall be entitled to vote. (Note that Alternates may vote only at meetings of the Board of Directors, Metro Valley Study Session and Mountain/Desert Policy Committee.) Amendment or Substitute Motion. Occasionally a Board Member offers a substitute motion before the vote on a previous motion. In instances where there is a motion and a second, the Chair shall ask the maker of the original motion if he or she would like to amend the motion to include the substitution or withdraw the motion on the floor. If the maker of the original motion does not want to amend or withdraw, the substitute motion is voted upon first, and if it fails, then the original motion is considered. Occasionally, a motion dies for lack of a second. Call for the Question. At times, a Member of the Board/Committee may “Call for the Question.” Upon a “Call for the Question,” the Chair may order that the debate stop or may allow for limited further comment to provide clarity on the proceedings. Alternatively, and at the Chair’s discretion, the Chair may call for a vote of the Board/Committee to determine whether or not debate is stopped. The Chair re-states the motion before the Board/Committee and calls for the vote on the item. The Chair. At all times, meetings are conducted in accordance with the Chair’s direction. These general practices provide guidelines for orderly conduct. From time to time, circumstances may require deviation from general practice (but not from the Brown Act or agency policy). Deviation from general practice is at the discretion of the Chair. Courtesy and Decorum. These general practices provide for business of the Board/Committee to be conducted efficiently, fairly and with full participation.

Background: The Finance Department is responsible for the preparation and administration of the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) Budget. After adoption of the budget, adjustments requested by departments need to be approved by the SBCTA Board of Directors or by the authority granted to the Executive Director, or her designee, under Policy No. 20000, Financial Policies. To identify any major budgetary changes during the fiscal year, the Finance Department compares actual expenditure and revenues to the budget. All other departments are responsible for identifying other budget adjustments necessary as a result of: 1) programmatic adjustments required to maintain compliance with applicable federal and state law and internal policies such as Measure I (MSI) Policies; 2) additional funds made available from allocations or grants; 3) unforeseen costs; or 4) other unexpected changes. Staff is requesting approval of the following budget increase necessary to carry out the administrative and programmatic functions of the agency. Per the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) Loan Agreement, SBCTA is required to meet the reserve requirements for the TIFIA Loan Reserve Account by June 30, 2027, six months before the debt service payment commencement date on December 31, 2027. The initial required reserve is $10 million. Due to the later-than-planned toll revenue commencement (August 2024 rather than July 1, 2024), current projections show a toll revenue shortfall in meeting the June 30, 2027 reserve requirement. As of August 7, 2025, an estimated $750,086 from MSI Backstop will be needed to cover this shortfall. Per the agreement, this MSI Backstop amount must be deposited into the MSI Reserve Fund by June 30, 2026. The funding mechanism in the TIFIA Loan Agreement requires SBCTA to fund the MSI Backstop needed in the following manner: Beginning in January 2026, request the Sales Tax Trustee to make monthly transfers to the MSI Reserve fund that are equal to one-sixth of the MSI Backstop needed. This ensures that on June 30, 2026, 12 months before the anticipated toll revenue shortfall, the MSI Reserve Fund has sufficient MSI Backstop available. On June 30, 2027, the MSI Backstop will be transferred to the TIFIA Loan Reserve account to meet the reserve requirement, if it is required. Entity: San Bernardino County Transportation Authority Packet Pg. 38 6 Board of Directors Agenda Item October 1, 2025 Page 2 Staff recommends budget authority for up to $5,000,000 in MSI Backstop. This allows flexibility for the Interstate 10 (I-10) Express Lanes operations to borrow from MSI programs to fund the required reserve by June 30, 2026. MSI Backstop will consist of Fund 4110 - MSI Freeway lending funds to Fund 7550 - I-10 Express Lanes Contract 1 in Task No. 0750 – Express Lanes Operations. Staff will continue to monitor the operating results and re-evaluate the amount of MSI Backstop needed to ensure no more MSI Backstop is transferred than is necessary to fund the reserve. Financial Impact: The recommended action to establish the Measure I Backstop in the fiscal year budget of approximately $5,000,000 for the requirements of the TIFIA loan agreement. Funding for this comes from Measure I Freeway funds. If approved, the Measure I Backstop will be incorporated into the upcoming fiscal year budget. The budget amendment is described in the Recommendation and the Background section of this item.
