Resolution

RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Approve Resolution R2022-12-07 to adopt the revised Board Policies as presented.                     

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

The Utah Public Transit District Act section 17B-2a-808.1 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.

 

The UTA Board of Trustees last updated their Board Policies in July 2019 and have recently performed a general review of those policies.

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

The agency is recommending the following policies be updated as presented:

 

- Board Policy 1.1 Process for Establishing Policies

- Board Policy 1.2 Ethics

- Board Policy 2.1 Financial Management

- Board Policy 2.2 Contract Authority and Procurement

- Board Policy 3.2 Service Planning Implementation

- Board Policy 3.3 Capital Development Project Implementation

- Board Policy 4.1 Fares

 

As required by statute, the proposed policy revisions were presented to the Local Advisory Council on September 7, 2022 for their consultation and feedback.   We are now presenting the proposed policy revisions to the Board of Trustees for final review and approval. 

ALTERNATIVES:                                                                                                                                    

The Board may modify the proposed policy revisions prior to adoption.

FISCAL IMPACT:                                                                                                                                

None
