| Established under the state Transportation Development Act of 1972, local transportation funds (LTF) revenue are derived from a one-quarter cent of the State’s current 9.5 percent sales tax collected in San Francisco (1/4 of 1% of the total 9.5% San Francisco county sales tax). Changes in LTF receipts from year-to-year are mostly due to varying economic conditions affecting annual LTF revenue. Fluctuations also occur due to the allocation procedure, where funds for one fiscal year will be based upon taxable sales estimates made during the previous fiscal year. Any difference between the actual taxable sales and the estimated taxable sales is then compensated through adjustments to next year’s allocation. | |||||||

| San Francisco voters approved a one-half cent sales tax increase in November 1989 to help finance a 20-year Transportation Expenditure Plan (Proposition B). Proposition B was superseded by Proposition K (Prop K) which was passed by San Francisco voters in November 2003. Prop K is limited to capital projects. However, Prop K grandfathered operating uses originally funded in Proposition B and as a result the SFMTA receives an annual allocation of $9.6 million for its Paratransit operating services. Additionally, the SFMTA will receive a one time award of $7 million in FY 2011 from redirected fund from vehicle program. | |||||||

| BART reimburses MTA for Paratransit services it provides in the BART corridor. As determined under the American with Disabilities Act (ADA), BART's reimbursement to Muni is calculated at 8.8% of actual Paratransit contract expenditures less Paratransit fare revenues and state funding. | |||||||

| On March 2, 2004, voters passed Regional Measure 2 (RM2), raising the toll on the seven State-owned toll bridges in the San Francisco Bay Area by $1.00. This extra dollar funds various transportation projects within the region that have been determined to reduce congestion or to make improvements to travel in the toll bridge corridors, as identified in SB 916 (Chapter 715, Statutes of 2004). Specifically, RM2 establishes the Regional Traffic Relief Plan and identifies specific transit operating assistance and capital projects and programs eligible to receive RM2 funding. This appropriation reflects the operating assistance fund that the SFMTA receives annually for its Third Street Rail line operations and for the Owl Bus | |||||||

| Under the State Transit Assistance (STA) program, a portion of gasoline sales tax revenues are appropriated by the State Legislature to the State Transportation Planning and Development Account for certain transit and energy-related projects. Funds are allocated (50 percent) on the basis of population and the amount of local funds used to support transit operations (50 percent). This line item reflects the local funds portion. | |||||||
