Agenda 08/12/2025 Item #16B 7 (After-the-fact approval for the electronic grant application submittal of FY25 Program of Projects and the Federal Transit Administration)8/12/2025 Item # 16.B.7 ID# 2025-2351 Executive Summary Recommendation to provide after-the-fact approval for the electronic grant application submittal of FY25 Program of Projects and the Federal Transit Administration 49 U.S.C. 5307/5339 FY25 grant application to support the transit system capital and operating costs in the amount of $7,174,286 through the Transit Award Management System, accept the award, and authorize any necessary Budget Amendments. OBJECTIVE: To receive after-the-fact approval from the Board to obtain grant funds for the operations and management of the Collier Area Transit (CAT) System including capital projects. CONSIDERATIONS: Each year the Public Transit & Neighborhood Enhancement (PTNE) Division receives federal grant funds for the management of the CAT system under Urbanized Area Formula Grant Programs (49 U.S.C. 5307/5339) to be used predominately for transit capital projects as defined by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). Due to the urgency from the FTA for the submittal of the grant application, to ensure the funds are not lapsed and are properly reviewed by the various entities prior to the shutdown of the Federal system for administering grant applications (TrAMS), staff secured the County Manager’s approval to submit the grant application. This is considered part of CMA 5330, and Board approval is being sought after the fact. FTA published the annual apportionment formula on May 5th, 2025. Collier County is located within the Bonita Springs-Estero, FL Census Urbanized Area; therefore, a portion of the 5307 funding is shared with Lee County and Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). The amount of 5307 funds allocated to the Bonita Springs-Estero Urbanized Area is $7,119,688. The 5307 apportionment designated for CAT is $5,558,488 and $1,561,200 for Lee County Transit. The 5339 apportionment is $502,127 and is not shared with Lee County. Staff prepared the proposed Program of Projects based on Collier’s total allocation for 5307 and 5339 funding. The Program of Projects has gone through the Public Involvement Process, which concluded on July 29th, 2025. The Public Transit Advisory Committee reviewed the Program of Projects on June 18th, 2025. Proposed projects include: 5307/5339 FY25 Program of Projects Item Description Amount 1% Enhancement Bus Stop Improvements (shelters) / Bus Wraps $ 159,931 1% Security / Safety Badge access and Camera System $ 55,585 Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) ITS Support and Warranty $ 156,330 20% ADA ADA Paratransit Services $ 1,111,698 Construction- 5307 Maintenance and Operations Facility $ 497,873 Preventive Maintenance Preventive Maintenance $ 2,463,400 Operating Assistance Transit Operations Expenses $ 1,113,671 Construction - 5339 Maintenance and Operations Facility $ 502,127 Total Federal Award $ 6,060,615 A grant application must be entered into the Transit Award Management System (TrAMS) to utilize these funds. The application has been prepared and attached for the Board of County Commissioners' (Board) consideration. The grant requires a twenty percent (20%) match for capital assistance. Collier County has requested approval from the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for the use of $1,236,736 transportation development credits as a soft match for the grant. In addition, the grant requires a fifty percent (50%) match for FTA defined operating assistance. After review and approval by FTA, the grant award is electronically executed in TrAMS by the Transportation Management Services Department Head, who serves as the Board-appointed designee. The electronic system is also used to manage the award and submit all required reports. Page 1020 of 3949 8/12/2025 Item # 16.B.7 ID# 2025-2351 As noted in the attachment, staff is requesting pre-award authority from the Board to create the required budget appropriations for the new fiscal year as it is essential for funds to be budgeted in time for the beginning of FY26. Additionally, FTA publishes a consolidated list of all the certifications and assurances required by federal law or regulations for its programs into a single document that an applicant for or recipient of federal assistance under 49 U.S.C. Chapter 53 must submit annually or as part of its application for federal assistance. The FY2025 certifications have been submitted and are attached for informational purposes. Collier County CMA #5330 authorizes the County Manager to approve the submittal of grant applications with subsequent Board of County Commissioners action at the next available Board meeting to ratify the approval as “after‐the‐fact.” 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. Additionally, the item is consistent with the objective to support access to health, wellness, and human services. FISCAL IMPACT: Budget amendments are required in FY25 to recognize grant revenue within CAT Grant Fund (4031) and Transportation Disadvantage Grant Fund (4034) for a total amount of $5,558,488 for Project 33952 (Section 5307), and $502,127 (Section 5339) for Project 33951. Collier County has requested approval from FDOT for the use of Transportation Development Credits in the amount of $1,236,736 as a soft match for the twenty percent (20%) capital match requirement. Budget amendments in FY26 are required within CAT Match Fund (4032) in the amount of $217,400 and Transportation Disadvantage Grant Match Fund (4035) in the amount of $896,271, Project 33952 for a total amount of $1,113,671.
