RECONNAENDED ACTION: That City Council adopt a resolution authorizing Transit services
outside of regular service operations for a private wedding on
October 21, 2006, and authorizing the Transportation Manager to
advertise to determine if a willing and/or able provider exists for
this event in accordance with the Policy for Use of Transit Service Outside of Regular Operations.
BACKGROUND INFORMATilON: At the June 16, 2004, meeting, the City Council adopted policies
and procedures for the use of transit services outside regular
operations. included in the adopted policy was specific language
identifying the procedure for utilizing the City's transit services for
public service events. The policy revisions call for the City's Transportation Manager to advertise not
only in the local newspapers, but additionally to notify national trade organizations to determine if any
other operator is willing and/or able to perform the service. To expedite this process, we do one general
advertisement each year and should no provider be interested, the City's transit service may provide
those services at the fully -allocated rate. Since this event was not included in the list of Council approved
events, it would need to be advertised on its own. The applicant for the service will deposit in advance
with the City sufficient funds for the advertisement of this special service. The current fully -allocated rate
(contract cost plus maintenance, depreciation, etc.) is $60 an hour per bus and will be charged to this
special service.
FISCAL IMPACT- All services provided will be charged at the fully -allocated costs. There should not
be any fiscal impact on the transit fund.
FUNDING: None required. All services shall be billed in accordance with the adopted City
policy.
