BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Transit services have increased in the past two years to improve service delivery and increase the service area. Those changes have brought a remarkable increase in ridership. Current hours and fares are shown on Exhibit 1. To better accommodate this increased ridership, we are requesting City Council authorization to increase GrapeLine service hours on Sundays, from 7:45 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. to 7:45 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. FUNDING: When President Clinton signed the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA -21), the Federal Government increased the City of Lodi's apportionments by about 20%. Funding is available for the increase in service hours. Fiscal Year 1998/99 $ 460 TDA $ 460 FTA Fiscal Year 1999/00 $ 6,500 TDA and beyond $ 6,500 FTA �_aj 04� Richard C.
