AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Service or Fare Approval
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the Executive Director to enter into a Special Event Agreement with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, with the agreement retroactively taking effect on February 1, 2026.
BACKGROUND:
UTA and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (“the Church”) have partnered for several years to provide Ticket as Fare to events sponsored by the Church. Under this agreement, ticket holders can use their event ticket to ride UTA services on the date printed on the event ticket. The Church will hold events in 2026, and both parties desire to partner together to offer Ticket as Fare for the event ticket holders.
DISCUSSION:
Staff recommend continuing to partner with the Church to offer the Special Events Pass Agreement. The pricing for the 2026 contract is $105,053. 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:
The contract price is calculated based on a standard formula which uses historical trip data obtained from the automated passenger counter system. The trip count from historical data, and other variables such as event location and time of day, are used to forecast trips for the event. The fare rate ($3.75 group pass rate) is multiplied by the forecasted trips.
