Fare Agreement: Pass Purchase and Administration Agreement Modification No. 3 (Westminster University)
end

AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Service or Fare Approval

RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the Executive Director to execute Modification No. 3 to the Westminster Pass Purchase and Administration Agreement (Contract 20-F0129)

BACKGROUND:
UTA and Westminster College are longstanding partners dedicated to providing transit access to the institution’s students, faculty and staff. In 2020, the school entered a Pass Purchase and Administration Agreement (Agreement) with UTA, wherein Westminster pays for each trip taken by authorized users on UTA services, and UTA gives Westminster a 25% discount off the public fare. Authorized users included the school’s students, faculty, and staff with an active student ID. Westminster and UTA have continued to partner together to provide the school with transit passes by extending the original agreement through contract modifications.
Most recently, for the 2022-23 school year, Westminster entered modification number two (2) which was approved by the UTA board of trustees last July and extended the agreement for one additional year through July 31, 2023.

DISCUSSION:
Staff recommends extending this contract for one (1) additional year through July 2024. The updated contract term will be August 1, 2023 through July 31, 2024. All other terms of the contract will remain the same.
