SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The Idaho Transportation Department’s Division of Public Transportation has requested a letter of intent for Treasure Valley Transit, Inc. for the FY15 Grant Application which is for
the time period of April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2016. In addition, they are asking for documentation stating the currently budgeted FY14 local match contribution of $65,000 from
the City and $20,000 from the Local Option Tax. This letter is needed by January 31, 2014.
The Local Mobility Management Network Plan for Adams and Valley Counties was updated in December 2013. This plan identified needs, priorities and strategies. Maintaining existing services
was the number one priority. Mountain Community Transit provides a valuable deviated fixed route service to the residents of McCall and a fixed route service serving McCall south to
Lake Fork, Donnelly and Cascade, and North to New Meadows. This has been demonstrated by the ridership and community support for the transit service. In April Terri Lindenberg, Executive
Director, Treasure Valley Transit, Inc will be submitting a FY15 Letter of Request for funding along with the budget.
Attached is the letter of intent.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize the Mayor to sign the Letter of Commitment for FY14 and Intent for FY15 for Treasure Valley Transit.
