Mass Transit Memorandum <br /> No. 110508-1 <br /> November 5,2008 <br /> TO: Honorable Mayor Carrigan and City,Council Members <br /> 1�,l <br /> FROM: Ryan McCrady, City Manager ��r <br /> Paul McChancy, Mass Transit Administrator ..., � <br /> -�ry- <br /> SUBJECT: FTA Capital Assistance Grant for One Bus <br /> SUMMARY Staff recommends that Council approve a Resolution to authorize <br /> RECOMMENDATION: the filing of an application for federal funding in the amount of <br /> $305,000 for the purchase of one bus. <br /> BACKGROUND: Federal Section 5309 capital funds for the purchase of transit <br /> vehicles are appropriated by the Federal Transit Administration � <br /> (FTA)to the State, and then allocated by the State to the transit '�I <br /> systems. The State has just announced the allocation of FTA <br /> funds for 2008 (attached), including$305,000 for Decatur for the I <br /> purchase of one bus.

This grant would fund <br /> the purchase of that fifth bus. <br /> POTENTIAL There are no known or expected objections to this grant. <br /> OBJECTION: application. <br /> INPUT FROM Richard Foiles, General Manager, DPTS <br /> OTHER SOURCES: James Gillum, Maintenance Superintendent, DPTS <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: Paul McChancy, Mass Transit Administrator <br /> BUDGET/TIME The proposed FTA grant funds would require no local match. <br /> IMPLICATIONS: No additional staff time would be required. <br />
