Date:6/8/2021

OBJECTIVE

To obtain City Council approval for an agreement with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) for grant funding for the City's Senior Mobility Program (SMP) at the H. Louis Lake Senior Center.
BACKGROUND

In June 2016, City Council approved an Amendment to the Agreement with OCTA for the SMP for the H. Louis Lake Senior Center (Center) for five twelve-month periods beginning July 2016, and ending June 2021.  Under the SMP, OCTA provides funding for transportation services offered to senior citizens at the Center.  These services are currently offered as part of the Agreement with Cabco Yellow Inc. 
DISCUSSION

The current Agreement with OCTA for the SMP at the Center will expire on June 30, 2021.  The attached Agreement provides the City with additional grant funding for the SMP for five twelve-month periods beginning July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2026.
FINANCIAL IMPACT

Funding for transportation services is split between the City and OCTA.   The OCTA will provide the City with an estimated total amount of $170,000 in Measure M2 funds for the first twelve-month period beginning July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022.  The City is required to provide a twenty (20) percent match for Measure M2 funds, an estimated amount of $34,000, which can be in-kind or financial.  The City's match will be an in-kind match of $34,000 in staff salaries that are budgeted in the General Fund.


RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the City Council:

 

  • Approve the agreement with the Orange County Transportation Authority for funding of the City's Senior Mobility Program at the H. Louis Lake Senior Center for five years; and

 

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