Ro C'aU Vote' SY :� ,( UlranlmOu John Brand, Senior Management Analyst* December 28, 2004 (CC Meeting of January 5, 2005) SUBJECT: Consider Resolution to Amend the Fiscal Year 2004/2005 Paratransit Budget SUMMARY The City Council is being asked to amend the current budget for paratransit services to reflect the pass- through of FTA funds that provide intercity Dial -A -Ride service to eligible persons with disabilities. DISCUSSION Since 2000, Federal Transit Administration (FTA) urbanized area funds have been available to provide Dial -A -Ride paratransit service between Moorpark, Thousand Oaks, and Camarillo. Previously, other agencies have administered the program by paying the service provider and receiving FTA reimbursement at the end of the year. Persons must be certified by VCTC (Ventura County Transportation Commission) as disabled under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to qualify for this service. Due to changes in urbanized areas and other issues, each participating agency is now being asked to pay for and receive the FTA reimbursements individually for usage by its residents. In FY 2003 -2004, this service provided 2,077 intercity trips to disabled Moorpark residents. In the current Fiscal Year, usage is roughly similar to last year at this time. If approved, the paratransit expenditure budget would be increased by $50,000 as shown in Attachment "A ", and the City would be reimbursed in that amount by the FTA after Congress releases the funds. That is likely to occur later in 2005. There is a sufficient ,)oyib9 Honorable City Council CC Meeting of January 5, 2005 Page 2 fund balance in the Local Transit TDA 8c (Fund 5000) to pay for the ADA intercity service without affecting the City's General Fund.
