Agenda 04/09/2024 Item #16B 5 (3 Resolutions - To accept Federal Grant funding to purchase replacement buses and a support vehicle to support fixed routes in the rural areas)04/09/2024
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve three Resolutions authorizing the Chairman to execute two Section 5311 Public
Transit Grant Agreements (FPN 451893-2-94-22 and FPN 454246-1-94-23), and one Section 5339 Public
Transit Grant Agreement (FPN 439255-1-94-23) with the Florida Department of Transportation to accept
Federal Transit Administration grant funding in the total amount of $1,398,274 for the purchase of two
replacement buses and a support vehicle to support fixed route services in the rural areas, and to authorize
the necessary Budget Amendments.
OBJECTIVE: To accept grant funding to purchase replacement buses and a support vehicle to support fixed route
services in the rural areas of Collier County.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) administers both the Section 5311 Rural Area
Program, and the Section 5339 Rural Area Bus and Bus Facilities Program administered through the Florida
Department of Transportation (FDOT), as authorized by Title 49 U.S. Code. These grant programs offer capital,
planning, and operating assistance to states and federally recognized Indian tribes to bolster public transportation in
rural areas with populations of fewer than 50,000.
On December 14, 2021, (Agenda item 16A27) and December 13, 2022, (Agenda item 16A25), the Board of County
Commissioners (“Board”) authorized staff to submit grant applications for funding for the purchase of replacement
vehicles, including a support vehicle and fixed route buses, to support fixed route services in the rural areas of
Collier County. FDOT has recently submitted the attached Public Transit Grant Agreements for execution. The
Agreements provide for a cumulative grant award of $1,398,274, which is 100% of the total project cost. The
separate amounts are provided in the chart below. The attached resolutions authorize the Chairman to execute the
corresponding Agreement, as well as any required certifications and assurances related therein.
Grant funding will be used to purchase replacement vehicles to support fixed route services in the rural areas of
Collier County. In doing so, Collier Area Transit is progressing with the objectives of the Transit Asset Management
Plan by replacing vehicles that have met their useful life.
This item is consistent with the Collier County strategic plan objective to design and maintain an effective
transportation system to reduce traffic congestion and improve the mobility of our residents and visitors.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding is provided by the FTA, with these grant dollars passing through the Florida
Department of Transportation via the PTGA. Budget amendments in the following table are necessary to recognize
grant revenue within CAT Grant Fund 4031 for their respective Project. The FTA Section 5311 and FTA Section
5339 capital programs require a 20% match or $349,569, which will be met by FDOT through Toll Development
Credits.
FPN # FTA Section Total Amount Project Number
451893-2-94-22 5311 $61,484 33895
454246-1-94-23 5311 $621,763 33894
439255-1-94-23 5339 $715,027 33896
The purchase of the replacement vehicles will not be an increase to the overall fixed route fleet inventory. The
maintenance cost for the vehicle has been allocated within the annual budget. By adequately maintaining a
replacement plan, the overall maintenance costs are reduced by replacing the aging vehicles.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This item is consistent with Objective 12 of the Transportation Element
of the Growth Management Plan.
