BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (the Church) and Utah Transit Authority (UTA) are longstanding partners dedicated to providing transit solutions to and from Church events. In 2024, the parties partnered through a Special Event Agreement to provide transit access to Church events (24-F0386, approved by the Board of Trustees on February 14, 2024). This agreement has expired and both parties desire to enter into a new agreement.

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

The Church and UTA propose to enter a special event contract. This partnership will allow tickets to specific events, as listed in the contract, to be valid fare on UTA services on the day of the event. The value of this agreement is $145,500. With agreement of both parties, the Church may add additional events not listed in the contract at the following price schedule based on tickets sold as reported by the Church:
