Revenue Change Order: Third Amendment to the Microtransit Cooperative Agreement (Salt Lake City Corporation)
end
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Non-Procurement Agreement
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the 3RD Amendment to the Agreement and authorize the Executive Director to execute the agreement with Salt Lake City for renewal of the UTA On-Demand service in the Salt Lake City Westside zone for $3,300,000.
BACKGROUND:
Microtransit, branded as UTA On Demand, has emerged as an effective coverage solution that complements fixed route bus and train service. The Salt Lake City Westside microtransit zone includes the neighborhoods of Rose Park, Fairpark, Glendale, and Poplar Grove.
The original contract #21-P00119 was approved by UTA’s board on October 13, 2021. The original agreement term was for 12 months, effective through December 31, 2022, with four 1-year extension options. The original agreement has been extended twice as follows:
• 1st amendment: The parties exercised the 1st option to extend the contract for another year until December 31, 2023.
• 2nd amendment: The parties exercised the 2nd option to extend the contract for another year until December 31, 2024.
This proposed 3rd amendment would exercise the 3rd option to extend the contract for another year until December 31, 2025.
DISCUSSION:
This proposed amendment continues to fund UTA On Demand service in the Salt Lake City Westside zone for one additional year in 2025. It provides ongoing microtransit service per the Five-Year Service Plan.
The requested new contract amount is $3,300,000, which is a $300,000 increase (+10%) over the prior year’s funding. The Salt Lake City Westside microtransit service is fully sponsored by Salt Lake City. The full $3,300,00 is allocated in the city’s approved 2025 fiscal year budget. The new/total contract value would be $10,100,000 over the entire life of the contract.

FISCAL IMPACT:
The approved 2025 UTA operating budget includes $3,300,000 for the Salt Lake City Westside microtransit zone. All expenses for the service will be paid from the Innovative Mobility Solutions operating expense line item for contracted services in the Planning & Engagement yearly budget, 6550.050353. Salt Lake City pays UTA, and in a separate agreement, UTA contracts with Via to provide the service for which UTA pays Via directly.
