Authorization
REQUEST: The Parks and Recreation Department is requesting the City Commission to authorize
the City Manager to execute the Transportation Disadvantage Services Agreement
Addendum with MV Transportation Inc. to provide transportation to the city's senior
citizens for FY 03/04.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this item is to allow continuation of the Winter Springs Senior
Transportation Program by approving and executing the agreement addendum for the
continuation of the successful program.
CONSIDERATION:
· On March 24, 2003 the City Commission approved the execution of an agreement with
MV Transportation to provide transportation to senior citizens of Winter Springs to and
from the Senior Center from April 1, 2003 - September 20,2003 at a rate of$ 43.24 per
hour.
. MV Transportation bid the rate of $ 43.24 per hour based on the presumption that the
service would be used 5 days per week.
. The service is used two (2) times per week. The average number of seniors using the
service is 14 per day.
. M.V. Transportation is unable to extend the old rate for the new contract provided due to
the rider-ship being so far below the projections upon which the $ 43.24 rate was derived.
The new rate is $ 75.41 per hour.
· M.V. Transportation provided a very good level of service. They have been very reliable
and very courteous to our seniors.
. M.V. Transportation was the only bidder to respond to our RFP last year and will
probably be the only qualified bidder to respond if we re-bid.
. Sufficient funds are budgeted in FY 03/04 ($ 20,000) to fund the service.
. Staff will continue to promote the program and attempt to increase the number of users
and number of days per week used to reduce the cost per senior.
FUNDING:
Based upon the new projections of rider-ship and the new rate the service can be provided well
within the $ 20,000 budget approved for FY 03/04.
$ 20,000 budgeted in FY 03/04 Budget - 7250-53186.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Transportation Disadvantaged Addendum to the Agreement with MV
Transportation Inc. to provide transportation services for the Winter Springs Senior
Transportation Program.
IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE:
September, 2003
October, 2003
Execute Addendum.
Continue Senior Transportation Program for FY 03/04.
