AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Service or Fare Approval
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the Executive Director to enter a Special Events Agreement with the City of West Jordan.
BACKGROUND:
UTA has historically partnered with events to allow attendees to use their event ticket-as-fare on the UTA system. Event tickets are printed with the UTA logo and specific wording that identifies the ticket-as-valid transit fare for the date identified on the event ticket. This partnership is formalized through an Event Pass Agreement that is negotiated by the Fares team and approved by the Board of Trustees.
Utah Transit Authority is partnering with the City of West Jordan to allow event attendees to use their ticket-as-fare for the following events taking place at the West Jordan Rodeo Grounds from July 4-6: Western Stampede Rodeo and Carnival.
This partnership allows ticket holders to use their event ticket to ride UTA services on the date printed on the ticket. Valid services include all Local Bus Routes, TRAX Light Rail Routes, Streetcar Light Rail, FrontRunner Commuter Rail Routes, and BRT Routes on the day of the event. Paratransit eligibility applies. Both the City of West Jordan and UTA desire to partner together to offer ticket-as-fare to the event’s ticket holders.
DISCUSSION:
Staff recommends partnering with the City of West Jordan as described above for the upcoming rodeo and carnival taking place July 4-6, 2024. In exchange for the transit fare, the City of West Jordan agrees to pay the base purchase price of $5,625.
