Fare Agreement: Ogden Trolley Service Agreement - Amendment 3 (Ogden City)
end
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Service or Fare Approval
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Executive Director to execute Amendment 3 to the Trolley Bus Service Agreement with Ogden City in the amount of $70,213
BACKGROUND:
Utah Transit Authority has a longstanding relationship with Ogden City. In 2020, Ogden City entered into a Bus Agreement with UTA. The original contract was approved by the UTA Board of Trustees on December 4, 2019. This agreement allowed the city to partner with UTA to fund a portion of the operating cost of the service for the “Ogden Trolley” (Route 601 Circulator Bus Service). Per the terms of the agreement, Ogden City agrees to pay 25% of the operating costs. For the base contract, Ogden City paid UTA $72,328. The city chose to renew their agreement with UTA in 2022 through Amendment 2 in the amount of $70,213.
Both the City and UTA desire to renew this agreement for one additional year through Amendment 3.
DISCUSSION:
Ogden City will continue to fund a portion of the operating cost of the trolley that will connect Downtown Ogden City with the Ogden FrontRunner Station January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023. Ogden City has agreed to pay to UTA $70,213.
Fares will not be collected on the Ogden Trolley (Route 601 Circulator Bus Service). This action will allow UTA to continue to serve the riders of route 601 free of cost and attract new riders. This service is a valuable economic development tool for the City and its local partners.
