Agenda 07/08/2014 Item #16D117/8/2014 16. D.11.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve and execute the attached Joint Participation Agreement in the
amount of $1,100,000, with a 50% match of $550,000 for a period not to exceed three years from
the date of execution, to provide operating and marketing funding for establishing a new Collier
Area Transit route to service Collier Boulevard and Immokalee Road which was previously
approved by the Board, approve a resolution authorizing the Chair to sign the agreement; and
authorizing all necessary budget amendments.
OBJECTIVE: To provide fixed route transit service in areas currently not served.
CONSIDERATIONS: Transit Service Development funds are made available through an application
process administered by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). On June 25, 2013, the Board
approved an application for a new route to provide public transportation service to an area that is
currently not being served: the Immokalee Road and northern Collier Boulevard corridors (Agenda item
16D6). This Joint Participation Agreement (JPA) will provide operation and marketing funding for the
new route. State Discretionary Transit Service Development Program grant awards are for a three year
period. The attached JPA is set to expire on March 29, 2019.
The service is planned to begin October 1, 2014 or upon receipt of the executed JPA from FDOT,
whichever is later.
Recipients receiving Service Development funds accept the commitment to continue the project, if
deemed successful by their own measures, without additional Public Transit Service Development
Program funds. Performance measures to define the efficiency and success of the route will be consistent
with the remaining system performance measures.
FISCAL IMPACT: The JPA provides for a total funding in the amount of $1,100,000 made up of State
funds in the amount of $550,000 and a 50% local match requirement in the amount of $550,000 to be
utilized over a period of three years beginning in FYI 5. Budget amendments will be executed in FYI to
recognize grant revenue ($550,000) within CAT Grant Fund (424) and matching funds ($550,000) within
CAT Match Fund, Project 33357. Matching funds are available from annual Gas Tax support within
funds CAT Operating Fund (426) and Gas Tax Fund (313). Following completion of this grant, staff
anticipates the ongoing operations to be approximately $367,000 annually. Moving Ahead for
Progress in the 21St Century (MAP -21) allowed large urban systems the opportunity to flex up to
75% of their formula funds to operating. Therefore, it is anticipated that the ongoing operations
will be funded with a combination of the Federal Transit Administration formula funds, the
current Gas Tax Revenue allocation, increased farebox collections, and any marketing revenue
realized from the recently adopted Marketing Plan.
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 approves and executes the attached
Joint Participation Agreement in the amount of $1,100,000, with a 50% match of $550,000 for a period
