The act changes the definition of "operating costs" for purposes of reporting cost efficiency metrics by the regional transportation district from including depreciation and excluding costs incurred in long-term planning and development of mass transportation and rapid transit infrastructures and the costs incurred as a result of providing transportation services mandated by the federal "Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990" to instead include all operating expenditures, excluding depreciation.
