Brown & Associates. Further the City Council authorize the Assistant City Manager to make minor changes in the routes. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At the City Council meeting on September 7, 1994, the City's transportation consultant Jim Brown presented his recommendation for GrapeLine routes. Prior to that meeting, we received input from the City's Transportation Committee. The evening of the City Council meeting we received public input and at two subsequent public workshops, we received additional comments. After taking those comments into consideration, the recommended routes have been modified in order to provide better access to some locations. City Council is asked to adopt the routes contained in the attachment to this communication. As part of the action, City Council is requested to delegate to the Assistant City Manager the authority to make minor modifications to the routes in order to solve unforeseen problems. This authority is requested not to usurp the City Council's responsibility, but rather to make the bus line more user friendly. For a point of reference, the staff of the Stockton Metropolitan Rapid Transit (SMART) has the authority to make changes of up to 25% of the mileage of the route.
