On July 21, 1994, the Transportation Disadvantaged Local <br />Coordinating Board discussed and recommended approval of the FY <br />1994/95 Planning Grant application. <br />ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS <br />The purpose of the planning grant application is to obtain funds to <br />cover the planning related costs involved with fulfilling the <br />county's duties and responsibilities associated with the state <br />mandated transportation disadvantaged program. The grant monies <br />are needed to provide monetary support to the county for the <br />continued provision of planning related services in conjunction <br />with the local transportation disadvantaged program. <br />Failure to apply for the grant will result in a lack of funding <br />from the state for planning related services which are mandated by <br />the transportation disadvantaged program. <br />The Board has three major alternatives. One is to apply for the <br />grant funds as recommended by staff and the TDLCB. The second <br />alternative is to apply for the entire amount allocated for the <br />planning grant and not transfer any funds to the trip/equipment <br />fund. The third alternative is to not apply for the grant funds, <br />an action which would make the county ineligible for reimbursement <br />of monies expended for planning related services. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />The TDLCB and the staff recommend that the Board of County <br />Commissioners approve the transmittal of the FY 94-95 Planning <br />Grant application to the state CTD as proposed by staff. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously adopted <br />Resolution 94-94, authorizing the filing of a <br />Transportation Disadvantaged Trust Fund Grant <br />Application with the Florida Transportation <br />Disadvantaged Commission. <br />13 <br />July 26, 1994 <br />Boa 92 Pn 02 <br />
