RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Authorize the Executive Director to execute the Pass Purchase and Administration Agreement with IHC Health Services, Inc.                        

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

IHC Health Services, Inc. (IHC) and UTA are longstanding partners dedicated to traffic mitigation and air pollution reduction. One way that the IHC and UTA partner together is through an employer transit pass program. IHC provides a transit pass to all full time and part time employees working at their various locations along the UTA Service Corridor. IHC pays for each trip taken by an authorized user on the UTA system and receives a 17.5 percent discount. The current agreement will expire at the end of this year and both parties desire to renew the agreement

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

In the spirit of partnership, IHC and UTA will enter a two-year Pass Purchase and Administration agreement. IHC will continue to pay for each trip taken by an authorized user on the UTA system and receives a 17.5 percent discount. This discount is in line with other similarly sized organizations participating in a pay-per-use program.
