AGENDA ITEM TYPE:

Service or Fare Approval

RECOMMENDATION:

Approve the Modification No. 1 of the Ensign College Education Pass Agreement

BACKGROUND:

UTA and Ensign College, formerly LDS Business College, are in the third year of their three-year Education Pass (Ed Pass) Agreement. The value of the contract is $202,000 ($67,000/year) for 3,300 authorized users. Ensign College provides a premium transit pass to all students, faculty and staff attending their institution. Each pass is valid fare on all UTA services except for Paratransit, Park City, and Ski Services. The current contract will expire on July 31, 2021.    This agreement was originally approved under resolution R2018-06-07. On October 21, 2020, the UTA Board of Trustees approved resolution R2020-10-02 - Adopting the Fare Rates and Types of Fare Media of the Agency. The Board’s actions to adopt this resolution rescinded the reduced fare agreements adopted in resolution R2018-06-07, including Education Pass Agreements.

DISCUSSION:

As both UTA and Ensign College recover from the Pandemic and in the spirit of partnership, staff recommends that the Ensign College Ed Pass Contract be extended for one additional year. The updated contract term will be August 1, 2018 through July 31, 2022. All other terms of the contract will remain the same.
