end

AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Service or Fare Approval

RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the Executive Director to execute a contract with Sartain and Saunders, LLC (S&S Presents) for a Special Events Pass Agreement.

BACKGROUND:
UTA has historically partnered with S&S Presents to offer Ticket-as-Fare to the Salt Lake Twilight Concert Series and the Kilby Court Concert Series. This Partnership allows ticket holders to use their event ticket to ride UTA services on the date printed on the ticket. Valid services include: Bus, TRAX, FrontRunner, Streetcar, BRT and Microtransit. Paratransit eligibility applies.
The concert series will once again take place in 2025, and both Parties desire to partner together to offer Ticket-as-Fare to the event’s ticket holders for both concert series.

DISCUSSION:
Staff recommend continuing to partner with S&S Presents to offer the Special Events Pass Agreement for their Twilight Concert Series and Kilby Court Concert Series. The pricing for the 2025 concert series is $32,832.
The pricing is calculated based on a standard formula which uses historical trip data obtained from the automated passenger counter system. The trip count from historical data, and other variables such as event location and time of day, are used to forecast trips for the event. The fare rate ($3.75 group pass rate) is multiplied by the forecasted trips.
