Approve assuming the entire Fixed Route Service (ECAT) as a County In-House function by October 1, 2017; or

This will vary based upon the Board's decision.

The FY18 Proposed Mass Transit Budget, presuming First Transit is selected to operate/manage ECAT and ECCT, is balanced by utilizing Capital (Bus Replacement) funds to cover Operating Expenses. This is a short-term fix that may need to be addressed in future Fiscal Years based upon the Board's decision.]
