ANALYSIS <br />The attached resolution (Attachment #1) authorizes the Chairman to execute the PTGA for Corridor <br />Grant funds. Upon the Board's adoption of the resolution and the Chairman's execution of the <br />PTGA, MPO staff will transmit the PTGA to FDOT. <br />As with the FTA Section 5307 grant program, only public agencies may be designated recipients of <br />state Corridor Grant funds. With respect to the Corridor Grant program, the county receives the grant <br />funds and transfers those funds to the county's Community Transportation Coordinator and transit <br />provider, the Senior Resource Association (SRA). The SRA, in turn, provides the service as directed <br />by the county and as identified in the PTGA. In this case, the funds are to be used to provide <br />intercounty service to the IR SC Main Campus in St. Lucie County. <br />FUNDING <br />Through this grant, intercounty transit service to St. Lucie County is 100% funded by FDOT with no <br />local contribution. The grant does not require a local match. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the attached Public <br />Transportation Grant Agreement and adopt the attached resolution authorizing the Chairman to sign <br />the agreement. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />1.
