Agenda 09/22/2015 Item #16D11 9/22/2015 16.D.11 .
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to authorize execution of the grant award for the Federal Transit Administration
49 U.S.C. § 5307 FY15 grant award in the amount of $2,848,065 and appropriate a budget
amendment to allow continuous operation of the Collier Area Transit system prior to the execution
of said grant award.
OBJECTIVE: To provide uninterrupted transit services for Collier County.
CONSIDERATION: Collier Area Transit (CAT) has provided transit and paratransit operations to
Collier County for over 10 years through various Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and Florida
Department of Transportation (FDOT) grant funds. On July 7, 2015, the Board approved Agenda Item
16D5 authorizing the submittal of a grant application for the FTA 49 U.S.C. § 5307 FY15 grant funds in
the amount of$2,888,127 for the management of the CAT system. At the time, FTA had only published
apportionments for formula funds based on the Highway and Transportation Funding Act of 2014, which
made 8/12 of the anticipated fiscal year 2015 total available through May 31, 2015. On August 27, 2015,
staff received notification of the full apportionment allocating $3,236,437 for the Bonita Springs
Urbanized Area, which also encompasses a portion of Collier County. After transferring$388,372 to Lee
County for Transit service in Bonita Springs, Collier County's portion will be $2,848,065, less than
originally anticipated by $40,062. Budget amendments have been prepared and are being presented to the
Board to reflect the variance in the final allocation.
Historically, Collier County receives authorization to execute the FTA grant awards in September of each
year. The capital portion of the grant requires a 20%match. Collier County requested authorization from
FDOT to use toll revenue credits in the amount of$587,016 as a soft match for the grant. The operational
portion of the grant requires a dollar for dollar local match. Therefore, staff has budgeted $500,000 of
local funds for the required match. In the past, the execution of the grant was processed through the FTA
Transportation Electronic Award Management system by the Collier County Board of County
Commissioners appointed designee, Stephen Camel!. FTA will be transitioning all grants into the new
Transit Award Management System (TrAMS)effective October 2015. The County will be requesting Pre-
award authority from FTA, as noted in the February 9, 2015 Federal Register Vol. 80, No. 26 page 7272,
which allows granting agency to obtain reimbursement prior to awarding after the new application is
input in TrAMS.
Projects proposed for the appropriated funding may include, as funding permits: (1) transit improvement
project amenities such as bus stop accessibility enhancements; (2) security enhancement for our CAT
facility; (3) provision of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Paratransit services; (4) bus route
operations; (5) replacement of rolling stock (4 buses) that has exceeded its life expectancy; (6) Support
Vehicle purchase; (7) Vehicle Preventative Maintenance; (8) Transit Enhancement such as Bus Wrap
replacement.

Approval of this item will appropriate a budget to reflect grant funding for FY 15 in the amount of
$2,848,065.
FISCAL IMPACT: A budget amendment is required in FY 16 in the amount of$2.848,065 to recognize
grant revenue funds to CAT Grant Fund (424), Project 33441 along with the proceeds from the sale of
surplus items in the amount of $7,150. Surplus proceeds are reinvested into the cost of transit vehicle
replacement. Collier County has requested approval from the FDOT for the use of toll revenue credits in
the amount of$587,016 as soft match for FTA defined capital line items. For the operating assistance
portion of the award, a cash match of 50% or $500,000 is required and is available with the CAT Match
Grant Fund (425) Reserves supported by a transfer of Gas Tax Revenues. A budget amendment in FY 16
is required within CAT Grant Match Fund (425), Project 33441 for$500,000.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality, and requires majority vote
for Board approval.—SRT
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: Transit capital and operations supports goals and objectives of
the Transportation Element of the Growth Management Plan.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners (1) authorize execution of the grant
award for the Federal Transit Administration 49 U.S.C. § 5307 FY15 grant award in the amount of
$2.848.065 through the FTA Transit Awards Management System (TrAMs), (2) approves the necessary
budget amendments to ensure uninterrupted transit and paratransit services, and (3) authorize, pre-award,
the execution of the FTA funding award agreement after the new application is input in the new Transit
Award Management System.
