PCTPA adopted a Regional Transportation Funding Strategy in August 2000 which included the development of a regional transportation impact fee program. PCTPA staff worked with the jurisdictions of South Placer County, as well as the development community, environmentalists, and community groups to develop a program and mechanism to implement this impact fee. The SPRTA, formed in January 2002, is the result of those efforts.

Under the Joint Powers Agreement that formed SPRTA, PCTPA is designated as the entity to provide administrative, accounting, and staffing support for the Authority. PCTPA is to be reimbursed for those staffing costs, as well as repaid for previous expenditures used to form the JPA and develop the fee program.  Specifically, PCTPA:

• Provides administrative, accounting, and staff support for the SPRTA
• Oversees the implementation of the SPRTA's traffic impact fee as delineated in the Implementation Program, providing updates as indicated
• Develops agendas for Authority Board and advisory committees Monthly/as needed
• Provides financial information to Board
• Provide information and reports to interested developers, groups, and citizens

The following projects are currently being funded with SPRTA fees:

*Transit projects include: HOV lane widening on I-80 through Roseville ("the Bottleneck") matching funds and Park and Ride lot
