Service or Fare Approval

RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Approve and authorize the Executive Director to execute the Ski Bus Service Agreement with SMHG Management/Powder Mountain.                      

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

Utah Transit Authority and SMHG Management/Powder Mountain (“the Resort”) have a longstanding relationship to promote the sustainability and growth of the Ski Bus Service. For the past 20 plus years, the resort and UTA have contracted together to provide transit service to employees and ski pass holders.

 

This past ski season, SMHG Management/Powder Mountain and UTA entered into a Ski Bus Agreement Amendment to provide service in the Canyon. As part of the agreement, the resort was provided with transit passes to be given to their authorized users which included employees and season pass holders.  This contract expired in March 2023.

 

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

​In the spirit of SMHG Management/Powder Mountain and UTA’s working relationship, both partners desire to enter a one (1) year Ski Bus Agreement for the 2023-24 ski season. The value of the service provided shall be $83,464 and the resort shall receive transit passes to be given to their authorized users.
