end
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Service or Fare Approval
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the Executive Director to execute the Ski Bus Agreement with Sundance Ski Resort for the 2024-2025 season.
BACKGROUND:
Utah Transit Authority (“UTA”) and Sundance Ski Resort (“Resort”) have a longstanding relationship. For the past 20 plus years, Sundance Ski Resort and UTA have contracted together to provide transit service to employees and ski pass holders.
DISCUSSION:
UTA desires to continue this relationship with Sundance by entering into a new Ski Bus Pass Agreement for the 2024/2025 ski season. UTA will continue to invoice Sundance based on the monthly ridership counts using UTA’s Electronic Fare Collection (“EFC”) ridership counting system. Each resort has the option to choose one of two billing methods for its season passholders and employees, Daily with Adjustments and Daily with Weekly Cap. The Daily with Adjustments sets the daily fare rate to $8.00 for ski bus service and local service. The Daily with Weekly Cap limits the daily accumulated fare for the week to $28.00, and requires 100% pass participation by the selected user group. Sundance has selected Daily with Weekly Cap pricing for their season pass holders and employees.
