Service or Fare Approval

RECOMMENDATION:                                                                                                                       

Authorize the executive director to enter into Amendment 3 to the Hive Pass Purchase and Administration Agreement with Salt Lake City Corporation                     

BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

The Hive Cooperative Pass Purchase and Administration Agreement is a transit pass 

program that gives Salt Lake City residents access to a discounted monthly standard 

adult local transit pass. Each pass is in the form of an electronic fare card and users 

are required to tap-on and tap-off the system when riding UTA services. This specific 

program has been in place since June 2015.  

 

On May 26, 2021, the board approved Amendment No. 2 to the Hive Cooperative Pass Purchase and Administration Agreement which extended the contract for one additional year through June 2022. The price of the local monthly Hive Pass is $68.00 per month which is a 20% discount on the retail monthly pass price ($85.00). Salt Lake City pays $26.00, and the resident pays $42.00. 

 

Passes can be purchased from the Salt Lake City County Building, Public Utilities Office, 

and the Sorenson Unity Center. Prior to selling a pass, Salt Lake City verifies that the 

resident, seeking to purchase a pass, lives within the boundaries of Salt Lake City 

proper. This verification process is outlined in Section 3 of the contract. 

 

DISCUSSION:                                                                                                                                      

In the spirit of partnership, staff recommends that the Hive Cooperative Pass Purchase and Administration Agreement be extended for one additional year. This will be Amendment 3 to the original agreement. The updated contract term will be July 1, 2020, through June 30, 2023. All other terms of the contract will remain the same.
