Provide detail. Will it be used to: • Provide more hours of service? • Expand service to a larger geographic area? • Provide shorter headways? • Provide more trips? • Replace existing equipment? • Purchase additional vehicles/equipment? Also,highlight the challenges or difficulties that your agency will overcome if awarded these funds. Section 5311 funding for operating assistance is essential if service is to continue for the non- urbanized areas of the County. Because this request is not an expansion of service or providing new service,the grant,if awarded will not provide more service hours,provide service to a larger geographic area or reduce headways.The grant will allow the continuation of service for the Rural Area of Collier County seeking transportation for employment,medical,education and recreational trips. Page 15 of 36 Florida Department of Transportation FFY21 Section 5311 Grant Application (b) If a grant award will be used to maintain services as described in Form A-1,specifically explain how it will be used in the context of total service. Make sure to include information on how the agency will maintain adequate financial,maintenance,and operating records and comply with FTA reporting requirements including information for the Annual Program of Projects Status Reports,Milestone Activity Reports, NTD reporting, DBE reports etc. The 5311 grant helps fund five(5)non-urbanized/rural routes.According to the 2010 Census majority of the County's workforce lives in the rural area and majority of the activity centers are within the urban area.Activity centers include major employers, health care centers and public services.Route 19 and Route 28(Golden Gate Estate/lmmokalee Shuttle),100%Rural Routes, provides a shuttle to and from the lmmokalee area and services the Golden Gate Estates area to the transfer station at the Collier County Government Center.This route serves to bring the residents from the rural area to the urban areas where our activity centers are located and provides access for those passengers to return home.Route 121 (lmmokalee and Marco Island express), 100%Rural Route,provides an early morning and late evening express service between lmmokalee and Marco Island.This express route serves to bring the residents of the rural area to the urban areas where the major employers are located and provides access for those passengers to return to home.Both routes(19 and 121)further the federal goal of the program to enhance the access of low-income individuals and others within the non-urbanized area to employment. Route 22 and Route 23(lmmokalee Circulator),100%Rural Routes,provide continuous public transit service within the rural community of lmmokalee.Route 24(US 41 East/Charlee Estates),26.11%Rural Route,provides access to residents in the rural areas east of Collier Boulevard off East Tamiami Trail to services and employment in the urban areas.Only that portion of Route 24 that serves the rural area is being funded with 5311 grant funds. Financial Records—The County uses an electronic financial system(SAP)which performs financial functions such as but not limited to individual financial modules to track assets,expenditures and revenues(including interest),grants funding contracts, requisitions and purchase orders including vendor contracts as well as vendor invoices.Federal awards are maintained on a Sharepoint site which all staff have access to. Maintenance Records —Each vehicle has a written record documenting preventive maintenance,regular maintenance, inspections,lubrication and repairs performed.Such records will be maintained for the life of the vehicle. Collier Area Transit stores the above information using the FASTER Fleet Management System by CCG Systems.It is a robust system and all the above information is tracked by equipment number and work orders. Operating Records—Operating report are maintained in their perspective software(RouteMatch,Trapeze,Avail)as well as electronic copies are stored in the internal County Network,files stored on the County Network are backed up daily. (c) If this grant is not fully funded,can you still proceed with your transportation program?Explain. Collier Area Transit,as many other transit agencies across the nation,is facing tough financial times and local funds contribution is stagnate.Should the State not approve this grant,CAT may be forced to reduce routes.With a reduction in service,many passengers would not have access to medical,work,recreational,and other life sustaining activities that public transit now makes possible.It is critical that Collier Area Transit receives these 5311 funds to continue to provide access to people in the non- urbanized area of Collier County to these services. l Page 16 of 36 Florida Department of Transportation FFY21 Section 5311 Grant Application (d) All Non-CTC Applicants:Have you met with the CTC and,if so, how are you providing a service they cannot? Provide detailed information supporting this determination. Applications submitted without the appropriate CTC coordination agreement may be rejected by FDOT. Grant awards will not be made without an appropriate coordination agreement.

The purpose of the Triennial Review is to determine subrecipient compliance with the State and Federal requirements as described in the State Management Plan and in accordance with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section 5310 Program. FDOT District Offices are required to conduct a Triennial Review of subrecipients. The review must be performed every three years in a manner compliant with the standardized Triennial Review Process Guide provided by the FDOT Central Office. An on-site review was performed at 8300 Radio Road, Naples, FL 34104 on November 19-20, 2019. Following the site visit, a Draft Report was issued by the District outlining the areas reviewed, compliance deficiencies and recommendation of actions the subrecipient should undertake to remedy the deficiency. Collier Area Transit has addressed and satisfied several deficiencies to comply with the FTA Section 5310 Program. Items not sufficiently addressed by Collier Area Transit were outlined in the Final Report issued by the District on March 27, 2020. Upon review of the Final Report response submitted by Collier Area Transit, all deficiencies outlined in the Final Report have been appropriately handled. FDOT, District One Transit Office, congratulates you on your compliance with the Triennial Review standards. We appreciate your attention to the importance of creating and maintaining safe and equitable passenger transportation programs in the communities we service.
