Ventura County "Park in Day"
The Ventura County Transportation Commission (VCTC) has designated
the month of October as Traffic Awareness Month. VCTC is planning
a variety of events during the month, including "Park in Day" which
is October 27.
On "Park in Day" residents will be asked to leave their cars at
home and use alternative modes of transportation to commute to and
from work. VCTC is requesting that bus operators provide free bus
service on "Park in Day" to encourage residents to participate.
The City is focused on achieving the fare box return goal
established by the State for the Moorpark bus. Providing free
rides without reimbursing fare box revenues would be counter
productive to this goal. Staff proposes funding all free rides
provided on "Park in Day" from the General Fund account number
(001.4.151.642 transit services) recently approved by Council for
the monthly bus passes. At this time it does not appear that any
additional funds will need to be appropriated.
Recommendation
The Transportation Committee (Talley, Wozniak) and staff recommend
that Council approve free bus rides on October 27 for "Park in Day"
to be reimbused from the General Fund account number 001.4.151.642.
