Formula Grant
Overview
Grant Description
Application purpose: This grant requests the use of $370,785 of (potentially lapsing) FY23 Section 5339 Bus/Bus Facilities Urbanized Funds.
Transit will use these funds in addition to apportionment funds to cover the cost of a fixed route bus.
The unexpected higher costs have resulted in the need for additional funding.
Recipient and/or any sub-recipient will follow all 3rd party procurement policies as defined in C4220.1G (Third Party Contract Guidance) and recipient and/or any sub-recipient will ensure that contractors procured will not be on the FTA suspension and debarment list.
Activities performed: Transit will utilize these funds to purchase a 35-ft fixed route bus.
Expected outcomes: Transit will use these funds (in addition to FTA grant #2025-049) to cover the cost of a fixed route bus.
A replacement vehicle schedule is attached.
Intended beneficiaries: The transit operation will benefit from a newer fixed route bus requiring less preventative maintenance as well as improved working conditions in our maintenance facility.
Subrecipient activities: There will be no sub-recipients for this grant.
