OBJECTIVE: To obtain authorization to submit the FY2018 Annual Progress Report of the Transit
Development Plan to the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) in order to continue receiving
State Block Grant funding to offset the cost of the Transit system operation.
CONSIDERATIONS: In order to receive State Block Grant Funds for system operations, each transit
agency must develop a Transit Development Plan (TDP) Major Update every five (5) years and an annual
progress report for all other years. The deadline to submit all TDP updates to FDOT for approval is
September 1, 2019. The requirements that must be met in the TDP Annual Progress Report are outlined in
Rule 14-731, Florida Administrative Code. The FY2018 TDP Annual Progress Report outlines the
progress that Collier Area Transit (CAT) has made in FY2018 towards achieving the goals and objectives
identified in the last TDP Major Update, which was approved on August 6, 2015.
The TDP Annual Progress Report is a ten-year planning document that recommends implementation
strategies to achieve the goals and objectives. This document also evaluates where there were
discrepancies in the implementation elements that differ with the TDP Major Update. The funding shown
in the Financial Section of the TDP Annual Progress Report for FY2019-2028 is for planning purposes
only and should not be considered a proposed budget.
The TDP Annual Progress Report went through the CAT Public Participation Plan, which includes an
endorsement from the Public Transit Advisory Committee (PTAC). The TDP has undergone a fifteen -day
public comment period as required by the CAT Public Participation Plan.

Board of County Commissioners. If the decision by the County Manager is not ratified by that Board, the
document(s) shall be enforceable against Collier County only to the extent authorized by law in the
absence of such ratification by that Board.

time the TDP was written the following funding estimates were developed and are contained in the plan
for FY16. The updated estimated budget includes Federal Transit Administration (FTA) 5307, 5339, 5310
and 5311 grant funds in the amount of $4,265,914; and State Block and Trip Equipment grant in the
