COLLIER COUNTY/COLLIER AREA TRANSIT
2010/2011 5310 GRANT Application
EXHIBIT A: Current System Description:
Currently, Collier Area Transit provides transportation services to the general public. Services provided include
fixed route bus service and paratransit service. The public transit services are managed by a contracted
management company; McDonald Transit Associates, Inc. Paratransit service is available seven days per week,
24 hours per day. All service is provided by contracted operators.
Paratransit service is door to door. Drivers will assist anyone who appears to need assistance, especially the
frail and elderly and those who are mentally or physically disabled, from their door to their seat on the vehicle.
Drivers will not go into a home and cannot go to rooms of nursing homes or hospitals due to time constraints
and liability issues. Office hours are from 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. After hours calls are
forwarded to one of the contracted carriers who have actual operations twenty-four hours per day.
All available funds will be used to carry out the mission of the Collier County Local Coordinating Board, which
is to carry out a coordinated and comprehensive approach to planning, developing and providing transportation
services that meet the needs of transportation disadvantaged persons.
A total of 112,696 one-way trips have been provided during fiscal year 2009. This is represents a 3% increase
from FY 08 and a 20% increase from 2007 (see trips chart below). With more trips come more miles and
maintenance required for our fleet (see maintenance cost chart below). Fares for the paratransit program are
implemented as regulated by each funding source. ADA fares are set up at $2.00 per one-way trip, lower than
allowed by regulations and based on Collier Area Transit's fixed route bus fares. As mentioned above, service
is managed by a contracted management company, McDonald Transit Associates, Inc. service is provided by
carriers under contract to McDonald Transit using vehicles owned by the County and by the carriers.
Collier Area Transit's paratransit program operates an average of25 routes and or manifests each day; using an
average of 15 Collier County owned vehicles. The balance of the routes are operated vehicles provided by
private-for-profit providers.
The maintenance of Collier County owned vehicles is performed by Collier County Fleet Management.
Subcontractors are responsible for maintenance on privately owned vehicles. Collier Area paratransit's
program conducts regular safety inspections on subcontractor vehicles as a critical component of our overall
safety and security program. Safety is a primary concern of all transportation entities.
Our current vehicle inventory is supplied elsewhere in this grant application. As can be seen, many of the
vehicles presently in the Collier County/Collier Area transit Fleet have high mileage on them. The Federal
guidelines for vehicle replacement indicate that six paratransit vehicles currently qualify for replacement due to
their mileage being in excess of 100,000 miles. As the Community Transportation Coordinator, we would like
to be able to replace high mileage vehicles. High mileage vehicles require increased maintenance expenses
compared with lower mileage vehicles.

Proposed Project Description
COLLIER COUNTY/COLLIER AREA TRANSIT
2010/2011 5310 GRANT Application
1683
EXHIBIT B: Proposed Project Description:
The Collier County Board of County Commissioners is requesting FT A Section 5310
funds in the amount of $379,704 (80%). State match funds in the amount of $47,463
(10%) will also be requested. This will be matched with local funds in the amount of
$47,463 (10%). Funds from this grant will be used to purchase replacement vehicles to
continue the existing level of service. The vehicles scheduled for replacement have
exceeded their useful life and must be replaced if normal service is to continue. These
and other vehicles will be used to provide paratransit transportation services throughout
the county,
Section 5310 funding for these vehicles is essential if service is to continue. Collier
County currently provides over $ 1,750,000' each year to provide paratransit service. The
current fleet of vehicles is inadequate due to their age and condition, Should the State not
approve this grant, Collier County may be forced to use some of the Local Operating
funds to purchase replacement vehicles. Collier Area Transit's paratransit provides ADA,
Medicaid, and Transportation Disadvantaged, as well as agency funded paratransit trips
for the at-risk population of Collier County, including those with disabilities, low income,
and elderly. Without 5310 funds for replacement vehicles, Collier County may have to
implement the prioritization of Transportation Disadvantaged paratransit trips as allowed
by the State of Florida Commission for the Transportation Disadvantaged. Trips would
be reduced and many passengers would not have access to recreational, medical,
shopping and other life sustaining transportation.
A Budget is provided elsewhere in the grant application as well as a list of equipment
inventory.
