AGENDA ITEM TYPE:

RECOMMENDATION:
The Local Advisory Council is requested to review proposed revisions to Board Policy 3.2 Service Planning Implementation as presented and to provide feedback to the Board of Trustees prior to their adoption of the policy in September 2024.
BACKGROUND:
The Utah Public Transit District Act section 17B-2a-8 outlines the duties and powers of a large transit district’s Board of Trustees. One of those duties includes developing and approving board policies, ordinances, and bylaws after consultation with the Local Advisory Council.
Board policy 3.2 has been updated with input from relevant subject matter experts and is now available for Local Advisory Council consultation.
DISCUSSION:
The agency is requesting the Local Advisory Council’s review of the following policy revisions:
• Board Policy 3.2 Service Planning Implementation (revised)
The proposed policy revision clarifies UTA’s service planning process and adds additional requirements for Service Design Guidelines, a Long-Range Transit Plan (LRTP), requirements for Board consultation and approval, and community engagement. The policy also directs agency staff to develop additional service related administrative policies.
ALTERNATIVES:
The Local Advisory Council is encouraged to provide input to the Board of Trustees with comments, advice, or recommended alternatives to the proposed policy revisions.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None
