OBJECTIVE

To request City Council approval of an amendment to the Agreement among the City of Garden Grove, the Korean American Senior Association (KASA) and the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) for KASA's Senior Mobility Program (SMP). 

BACKGROUND

In May 2011, City Council approved an Agreement between the City of Garden Grove, KASA and OCTA designating the City as the fiscal receiving agent for KASA's SMP funding.  OCTA requires that a government agency receive the funding for the SMP, and the City agreed to receive the funds from OCTA and then transfer them to KASA. Under this Agreement, the City has no obligation to provide funding to KASA if OCTA reduces or eliminates funding for the SMP.

DISCUSSION

Attached is an Amendment to the Agreement between the City of Garden Grove, KASA and OCTA that outlines changes to Article 2 of the Agreement and modifies the responsibilities of OCTA to the KASA. These changes only apply to KASA. 

FINANCIAL IMPACT

There will be no direct fiscal impact to the City's General Fund. 
RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the City Council:

 

  • Approve the attached Amendment to the Agreement with the Korean American Senior Association and the Orange County Transportation Authority; and

 

  • Authorize the Mayor to execute the Agreement on behalf of the City.
