Under RCW § 35.58.2795,Yakima is required to prepare a six-year transit development plan and annual report and submit it to WSDOT. WSDOT uses this document to prepare an annual report for the Washington State Legislature summarizing the status of State public transportation systems. The document is also used to notify the public about completed, current, or planned projects. In order for this document to be effective, the Yakima City Council must approve the document following a public hearing. This plan is required to be updated each year in order for Yakima Transit to fully inform the Federal Transit Administration,Washington State Department of Transportation,Yakima City Council, and the Public of projects that have been undertaken and are planned to be undertaken. Because this is a plan,not every project will be completed when planned in the document and some projects may never be started as a result of changed conditions or other factors. SECTION I: ORGANIZATION History In 1907,the City of Yakima's public transportation originated with a steel-rail streetcar system. The Yakima Valley Transportation Company operated the first transit service. Motorized buses were introduced in 1924 as a supplement to the rail streetcar routes. The City's all-electric streetcars were discontinued in 1947 when the services offered switched to an all-motor bus system. In 1957, a private provider began operating the bus system. The private provider discontinued service in 1966 and for four months no public transportation services were operated in the City of Yakima. In the fall of 1966, Yakima citizens voted to approve the State's first household tax to financially support a public transit system and public transit services were re-established under contract with a private provider. In October 1970, the City purchased the assets of the financially-troubled private provider and continued transit services as a City-owned and operated public transit system. In November 1980,Yakima citizens approved a 0.3%transit sales tax that replaced the City's household tax as the transit system's method of financial support. Currently,the Federal Transit Administration classifies Yakima Transit as a small urbanized transit system serving a population between 50,000 and 200,000 people. Yakima Transit's services include Fixed-route,Paratransit(Dial-A-Ride), Vanpool, and Commuter bus service between Yakima and Ellensburg. As a result of the American's with Disabilities Act, Dial-A- Ride services were added in 1992. Vanpool was established in 1998 in order to provide transportation services to workers who travel outside the area to locations like Hanford. The Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter started at the end of November 2011,to provide transportation services for faculty, staff, and students traveling to either the Yakima Valley Community College or Central Washington University. Those schools account for approximately 70% of Commuter ridership. In June 2014,Yakima Transit took the main partnership role in making sure the program is operated to meet partnership and community needs. Organizational Structure The Yakima City Council is ultimately responsible for Yakima Transit's operations. Several management layers help control Transit activities &programs including the City Manager,Public Works Director, and 3 ` �, Annual Report for 2016&Transit Development Plan 2017—2022 7 Transit Manager. The City Manager and Public Works Director report back to the City Council on Transit activities and address Transit policies and finances. The Transit Manager oversees the daily operational activities of the Transit System,which is overseen by the Public Works Director and City Manager. As of December 31, 2016, Yakima Transit directly employed 64 employees in Administration, Fixed route,Paratransit, and Vanpool services. Transit staff positions are generally frontline positions.

No other changes are planned for 2017. Yakima Transit pays for various administrative services through the City of Yakima including Legal, Human Resources, Vehicle Maintenance, Purchasing, Information Technology, and Financial Services. 4 0,; Annual Report for 2016&Transit Development Plan 2017—2022 0g 8 Yakima Transit also contracts with private organizations for Paratransit& Commuter services. Medstar, LLC, operates the Dial-A-Ride service and in 2016 employed approximately 38 employees consisting of an Office Manager,Dispatchers, Schedulers,Drivers,Vehicle Cleaners, and Mechanics. In 2016,A&A Motorcoach operated the Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter, employing up to six Drivers, a Supervisor, and a Maintenance person. Citizens can address their Transit concerns directly to the City Council Members during any regularly scheduled Council meeting. The City Council also solicits public comments on transit specific issues during the review and adoption of the City's annual budget and Transit Development Plan. All City Council meetings and budget review meetings are broadcast live on local television and taped for rebroadcast online for those unable to attend the actual session. A Citizen's Advisory Committee meets quarterly and consists of members of the community with an interest in Transit, as well as, individuals who use Transit on a daily basis. The group is updated on Yakima Transit's projects and goals. They are asked to provide input on proposed projects, give public and system user comments on services they would like to see in the system, and comment on future services Yakima Transit could provide. Community participation helps Yakima Transit address passenger concerns. SECTION II: PHYSICAL PLANTLOCATIONS Yakima Transit's administrative and operations offices are located at 2301 Fruitvale Boulevard. Yakima Transit's Human Resources, Legal, &Finance services are provided by the City of Yakima either at the Public Works Facility, City Hall, or the Legal Center. Yakima Transit has a Transit Center in the Downtown Yakima core at 4th Street and Walnut. Yakima Transit provides three park and ride lots throughout Yakima at the following locations: Yakima Public Works Facility at 2301 Fruitvale Blvd; Chesterly Park at 40th Avenue and Powerhouse Road; and,the City of Yakima Information Center at Fair Avenue and Lincoln. SECTION III: TRANSPORTATION SERVI E Services During 2016,Yakima Transit served the cities of Yakima and Selah with Fixed-route,Paratransit, Vanpool services, and Commuter Services to Ellensburg with the Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter. (Maps at Appx E,F, &G) Yakima Transit also promotes sidewalks,pathways, and bicycle routes. Yakima Transit provides the following connections to rail, air, and other fixed-route services: Union Gap Transit and the Community Connector(Lower Valley service). Transit Routes 1 Summitview/Lincoln During 2016,Yakima Transit operated Fixed-route bus service along 2/2X Tieton/Nob Hill nine different routes that operate between the hours of 6:00am and 3 Mead/Fruitvale 7:00pm within the cities of Yakima and Selah: 4 Fruitvale/Mead • 9 routes Monday-Friday(6:00am- 7:00pm); 5/5X Nob Hill/Tieton • 9 routes on Saturdays (8:45am- 6:00pm); and, 6/6X Fair Ave/N. 1st Street • 6 routes on Sundays (8:OOam-4:OOpm). 7/7X 40th Ave/Washington 9/9X Washington/40th Ave 10/10X Selah/N. 1st Street 11 Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter 5 Annual Report for 2016&Transit Development Plan 2017—2022 9 Weekday routes are operated on an hour&half-hour basis on most routes. Saturday& Sunday routes are operated on an hourly basis. Yakima Transit's system map, as illustrated in the Appendix E, depicts the 2016 fixed routes. Over the next six years, some routes may be cut,modified, or discontinued to maintain or expand more efficient routes. In November 2012, Yakima Transit realized that as a result of service expansions and other oversights, spending on transit services were higher than transit revenues. Changes were implemented in March 2013 to focus on funding that was not available for vehicle and other essential capital procurements. As a result of service cuts and fare increases, Yakima Transit replaced three buses in 2014,three more buses in March 2016, and four buses arrived in March 2017 with the help of$2.4 Million in State and Federal grants. The bus purchases put Yakima Transit back on a regular vehicle replacement schedule. The next bus purchases are anticipated in 2020 and will potentially consist of electric buses meeting the State of Washington's alternative fuels regulations,if this is the most feasible option. In June 2016,Yakima Transit reestablished mid-day service on two routes (Routes 6 & 9), equivalent to six service hours per weekday. Service is anticipated to be reestablished on Route 7 starting in 2018,three hours per weekday. Expansion routes outside of Yakima Transit's jurisdiction require service demand and funding support from either the State, Federal, or local jurisdictions (other than the City of Yakima). Other than the Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter and contracted services into Selah,no other service extensions are planned for Yakima Transit outside their jurisdiction. In 2016,Yakima Transit provided paratransit services in the cities of Yakima& Selah. Dial-A-Ride services were available during the same operating schedule as Fixed-route services. Under contract with Medstar, LLC, complementary paratransit services were available to residents, who qualify for service under the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Paratransit services are provided door-to- door,to eligible clients and serves the areas within the city limits of Yakima and Selah and some trips into the city of Union Gap. Over the next six years, Yakima Transit does not anticipate any changes to the paratransit program, except as it relates to any expansion of the fixed-route program and replacing vehicles. Yakima Transit operates Vanpool services for residents of Yakima. Vanpool services are provided on a cost recovery basis; costs are covered by the users. Yakima Transit's vanpool program is still experiencing a slump in vanpool starts. There are currently 14 vans in operation,two vans less than there were at the end of 2015. When gas prices increase,Yakima Transit's vanpool services are anticipated to be used more, 20% growth anticipated over the next six years. Yakima Transit offers each vanpool commuter a guaranteed ride home,in the event they are sick,the vehicle breaks down, or other issues come up, which may be used up to four times per year. Pad( i Lets Yakima Transit provides service to five park&ride lots: Chesterly Park at North 40th Ave and River Road, Gateway Center along Fair Avenue at I-82, and the Public Works Facility at N. 23rd Avenue and Fruitvale Boulevard. The Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter utilizes the Firing Center Park&Ride Lot (Selah) and the Park&Ride lot located next to the Selah Civic Center in downtown Selah. 6 ` �, Annual Report for 2016&Transit Development Plan 2017—2022 10 Yakima Transit provides weekday non-exclusive transportation service to Elementary, Middle, and High Schools. The School Districts do not provide transportation services for students who live within a mile of the school; however, the school district purchases youth passes for the students to use. In 2016, School District passes account for 12% of fixed-route fares (total youth fares accounted for 20%). School district passes are not discounted. These routes run along the same route as normal routes and are generally filled up with more than 50-70 students boarding either before or after school. The school runs have the highest ridership per hour of all fixed-route runs and were initially setup because regular route buses were overcrowded making it difficult for other passengers to use the service either before or after school hours. Yakima Transit provides service to the following public transportation facilities/connections: • Greyhound Bus Terminal(3rd Avenue &Pine Street) • Lower/Upper Valley Community Connector(Yakima Transit Center) • Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter(Yakima Air Terminal,YVCC, and Yakima Transit Center) • Union Gap Transit&Yakima Airport(Routes 7 & 9) Fare Structure Single-ticket fares&monthly fares last increased March 2013. Fares are as follows: How much does it cost to ride the bus? One-way flare Monthly Passes Adults(age 18 and over) 1.00 $25.00 Youths (age 5- 17) 75 1€3.00 Reduced Fare(Persons 62,t ter,people with disabifittes and 500 $9.00 Medicare Card holders. Reduced Fare ID card with photo required for reduced fare.) Yakima-Ellensurg Commuter.....................................................:5.00.......,..........$150;00 Pre-School (under 6. accompanied by adult) FREE Transfers(See Transfer policy, page 4).....................................................FREE A For fixed-route bus service, day passes are still offered at three times the cost of a single fare, or twice the fare for passes obtained after 9:15am. Fixed-route transfers are available for"one free ride"on any bus, on any route, during one of three time periods each day. Morning transfer tickets are valid until 9:15am. Mid-day transfer tickets are honored from 8:45am to 3:15pm and afternoon/evening transfers are effective from 2:45pm until the close of service. The boarding time determines which transfer the passenger receives. Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter transfers to the fixed-route system are free with the purchase of a Commuter ticket. SECTION IV: SHORT & LONG-RANGE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION OPERATING & CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS Local Operating Projects 1. Offer regional transit service connections to Kittitas County(Ellensburg/CWU Campus). Yakima Transit continues to operate the Yakima-Ellensburg service under contract. The current funding cycle is from 7/1/15 to 6/30/17. Ridership has declined since the service has started,but so has the service, going from 8 round trips to 7 round trips when school is in session and 6 round trips 0g 7 �,; Annual Report for 2016&Transit Development Plan 2017—2022 11 when school is not in session. In 2016,two of the Ellensburg stops were restored(Super 1 and Safeway Stops)to more effectively provide service to Central Washington University and the City of Ellensburg. In 2018, it is anticipated that the Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter will run an additional bus in the morning to better accommodate the College/University schedule. Going up to Ellensburg,the Commuter Bus will be leaving at 6:40 AM and will be arriving at CWU at 8:00 AM. On average, the Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter provides more passenger trips than each of the four State operated Intercity Transits (Apple, Grape, Gold, &Dungeness Lines) at less than 1/3 of the combined miles travelled and at roughly 1/3 the combined cost. Grants are required to continue to keep the service operational, with the fare box recovery averaging around 17%. 2. Rebranding Logo. In an effort to freshen up Yakima Transit's look, Yakima Transit has redesigned their logo. The bus books and Yakima Transit's newer vehicles have the new logos. The older vehicles are in the process of getting a makeover. The rebranding is anticipated to be completed by the end of 2017. 3. Fixed-Route Passenger Counters. In 2017 &2018,Yakima Transit plans on purchasing new software/IT equipment that will assist in collecting data for reporting purposes. Yakima Transit is required to collect and report this data on an annual basis to the State(Washington State Department of Transportation) and Federal(Federal Transit Authority)levels. 4. Paratransit Passenger Counters. In 2018,Yakima Transit anticipates equipping the paratransit fleet with passenger counter tablets similar to the fixed-route system tablets. Yakima Transit is required to collect and report this data on an annual basis to the State(Washington State Department of Transportation) and Federal (Federal Transit Authority) levels. 5. Security Cameras. Bus security cameras were upgraded in 2015, giving Yakima Transit the ability to have live video feed. In early 2017,the Transit Center cameras were upgraded as well. Local Capital Projects 1. Vehicle Replacement. a. Buses. Three fixed-route buses arrived in March 2016 and four new fixed-route buses arrived in March 2017. All of Yakima Transit's fixed-route bus fleet are low-floor Gilligs. No more new buses are anticipated until 2020. b. Vanpool. Three Vanpool vehicles were ordered in 2016,replacing four 15-passenger vans. With the reduction in service,three more Vanpool vans will be taken out of service and not replaced. No more Vanpool vehicle replacements are anticipated until 2019. c. Commuter.Yakima Transit does not own the vehicles used in the Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter. The vehicles are owned and operated by the service provider, A&A Motorcoach. d. Dial A Ride.In 2016, Yakima Transit replaced several Dial-A-Ride vehicles-four minivans and three cutaways. These vehicles replaced older cutaways and minivans. With a newer fleet, no more vehicles are anticipated until 2019. 8 ` �, Annual Report for 2016&Transit Development Plan 2017—2022 12 e. Administrative. It has been several years since Yakima Transit upgraded their administration vehicle fleet. Yakima Transit replaced three vehicles in 2017. No more Admin vehicles are anticipated until 2020. 2. Continue to maintain/improve ADA amenities within the transit system. Yakima Transit continues its efforts to maintain and improve ADA access within the system. Yakima Transit plans to: • Purchase ADA accessible vehicles with ramps. • Work with the City Streets,Planning, and Engineering Departments to identify and partially fund sidewalks installation throughout the Transit system to help individuals with mobility issues get to the bus stop. • Purchase and install more transit shelters that will accommodate wheelchairs at a rate of 10 passenger shelters per year. Currently, Yakima Transit has 32 passenger shelters in the fixed- route system that has approximately 700 bus stops. 3. Build a new Central Transit location. Yakima Transit anticipates building a new Transit location in Central Yakima in 2021. The new Transit location is anticipated to house Yakima Transit Admin offices,vehicles,Maintenance garage, cleaning bay,ticket booth, etc. The new Transit location is also anticipated to help Yakima Transit switch over to alternative fuels,if they are feasible. At some point in the future, Yakima Transit anticipates all the buses will have alternative fuel sources. For capital replacement purposes,this has to be a gradual change of 3-5 buses every other year; otherwise, in 12-14 years, Yakima Transit would be replacing the whole fleet all at once. 4. Build a new Westside Transfer location around 64th Avenue. Yakima Transit anticipates building a new Transfer station in West Valley in 2021. This Transfer Station will offer improved services to the West Valley community, and will support the numerous housing developments currently planned around 64`"Avenue. Capital improvements over the next six years will depend on transit sales tax. If sales tax revenues decline,planned projects may be put on hold until revenue is available to do the project.Planned capital investments are listed in Appendix C. Major improvements planned include: vehicle replacement, fixed- route passenger shelters,bus stop improvements, and technology improvements. SECTION V: COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT CONNECTIONS Throughout the City of Yakima,there are several planned or completed community enhancement projects. This section provides updates on transit connectivity to those programs/developments. Yakima Transit provides bus service to several annual community events including fare-free shuttle services to: the Central Washington State Fair,the City of Yakima's Fourth of July Fireworks Show, and the Arboretum's Christmas Luminaria Event. All of the transit services provided are open to the general public. The following are three important City of Yakima community enhancement projects that are either planned or completed: YMCA Aquatics Center -The YMCA Aquatics Center is proposed to be a year-round aquatics center located at the City of Yakima's Chesterly Park(40th Avenue and River Road). Yakima Transit has several routes that will serve this facility. At peak service,there are six buses per hour(66 buses per day) that will serve the facility. 9 ` �, Annual Report for 2016&Transit Development Plan 2017—2022 13 Downtown Plaza-The Downtown Plaza is a focal point for community activities in Downtown Yakima. The Downtown Yakima Transit Center is located a block away from the Downtown Plaza. All of Yakima Transit's fixed-route buses(16 buses per hour during peak service)connect up at the transit center. Sozo Sports Complex(SOZO)—SOZO is a planned 118-acre sports facility,located at the south central area of the City of Yakima in a relatively rural area just west of the Yakima Airport. The SOZO project combines both indoor and outdoor fields and courts for soccer,basketball, football, and other sports. Currently, SOZO is only hosting occasional events. Transit bus services, city-wide, are primarily based on residential and commercial densities and intensities. No regularly-scheduled bus services are planned for SOZO until the facility is finished. However, similar to other community events, Yakima Transit anticipates providing event-related services to the facility until the development is more established. Other planned development that might increase the likelihood that regular service will be provided sooner includes a 640-unit apartment complex to the west of SOZO and a 75-acre manufactured home development south of SOZO. SECTION I: PROGRAM FUNDING FINANCIAL FORECAST Financial forecasting primarily pulls from past service levels, anticipated needs, and market trends. This analysis consists of Yakima Transit's projected revenue and expenses for maintaining efficient service levels,while still being able to maintain an active vehicle fleet. The long-term strategies adequately address capital vehicle replacement and operations. On average, total capital and operating expenses are around$10M annually. The projected Ending Cash Balance, includes anticipated capital investments. Revenues The information contained in this section breaks down revenue streams and considers the outlook of those revenue sources. Operating revenue consists mainly of local sales tax and grant funding. Revenue is also obtained from farebox,monthly bus passes,tickets, and reimbursements from other jurisdictions served. Total Revenue(in thousands) 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Sales Tax $ 5,855 $ 5, 00 $ 5,800 $ 5,800 $ 5,800 $ 5,800 $ 5,800 Grants(Operating) $ 2,816 $ 2,494 $ 2,895 $ 2,800 $ 2,800' $ 2,80.0 ,800 Grants(Capital) $ 800 $ 1600 $ 130 $ 1,500 $ 5,000 $ 5,000 $ 5,000 Farebox Revenue $ 950 $ 1,000 $ 1,065 $ 1,015 $ 1,060 $ 1,100 $ 1,100 Contracted Service (Selah) $ 291 $ 285 $ 288 $ 291 $ 294 $ 297 $ 300 Other $ 440 $ 267 $ 186 $ 200 $ 200 $ 200 $ 200 Total Operating and Capital Revenues P-$11,152 $11,446 $10,. 64 $11,606 $15,154 $15,197 $15,200 IJ LS Yakima Transit utilizes a three tenths of one percent(0.3%) sales tax that was passed by voters in 1980. Sales tax revenue accounts for approximately 52.0% of total transit revenue in 2016. Sales tax revenues typically remains relatively consistent year to year with a slight increase either up or down. Each one tenth of one percent equates to approximately $1.88M in revenue per year. 10 Annual Report for 2016&Transit Development Plan 2017—2022 14 Fargbdtt ftedgnde Farebox revenue is one of the smaller funding parts to operating public transportation. Farebox revenue consists of Fixed-route, Dial-A-Ride,Vanpool funds, and Commuter funds. Passenger fares play an important role in funding transit services. A balance between the cost of the service and what a passenger is willing to pay must be maintained to ensure that users participate in the cost of providing the service. If the cost of the fare is too high, individuals who could drive may opt for the convenience of driving. Farebox Revenue(in thousands) 2016 2017(Est.( .2018(Est.) 2019(Est.) Fixed-Route Farebox Revenue 5 $ 615 620 625 Paratransit Farebox Revenue 121 130 130 130 Vanpool Farebox Revenue 162 170 170 170 Commuter Farebox Revenue 73 5 85 9,0 $ 9,0 Total Fairb x Revenues r 950 1,000 1,065 1,015 For 2016,farebox revenue accounted for 10% of all revenue, similar to 2015. Yakima Transit ridership remained steady over the last year. Grant Funds Yakima Transit utilizes both federal and state grants,which,in 2016, accounted for approximately 32%of total revenue. State and Federal funding has remained at or near prior year levels. Federal formula allocations have continued to increase. Operating grants consist of the annual operating grant(apportionment), operating grants for ADA paratransit services (apportionment), and the Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter(discretionary). Grants include the following Projects: 2 13- 17—Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter—Yakima Transit receives funding from the State of Washington Department of Transportation for commuter bus service between Yakima and Ellensburg. This grant is on a two-year cycle (July 2015 —June 2017 currently). Because it is a discretionary grant,the grant may not be awarded and the service would likely stop operating. The service is done in partnership with the City of Selah, City of Ellensburg, and Central Washington University. Without partnership support, Yakima Transit would not be able to provide the service. The grant covers about 36% of the service, local funds account for approximately 48% of the cost, and the farebox revenue accounts for the remaining 17%. Cost: $1.15M Grant: $400K Status: Currently being used. 2015-2017 _ Pgrttransit Spettal Negdt Fr-rr..

In years in which buses are not purchased,the largest part of the cost is wages and benefits, accounting for nearly 70% of the total cost to provide the service. Maintenance (16%)&fuel(7%)make up the next two highest expenses,with the rest being insurance, supplies, and equipment upgrades. In the chart above, fixed-route costs fluctuate because of the vehicle replacement program. In March 2016,Yakima Transit purchased three new transit buses each period, as part of Transit's ongoing bus replacement plan. Four more buses arrived in March 2017. Yakima Transit operates fixed-route bus services, which requires (by federal law)the Transit system to operate complementary paratransit services(Dial-A-Ride)to disabled individuals who cannot ride the fixed-route bus system. Currently, Medstar operates Dial-A-Ride under a contract with Yakima Transit. The farebox-recovery ratio for this service was 9.93%in 2016. Yakima Transit leases vehicles to Medstar to help control maintenance costs and provide funds for replacement vehicles. The Vanpool program is similar to carpooling, except that the passengers are using a transit vehicle. Yakima Transit pays for fuel, insurance, and maintenance. Each passenger is charged a monthly fee based on miles driven and the type of vehicle. The Vanpool program is a cost-recovery program; fares are expected to cover actual service costs. Farebox recovery for the Vanpool program in 2016 was 109.6%. Three Vanpool vehicles were ordered as replacements in 2017. Three additional vans will be removed from the service. dtenerturg Commuter In July 2015, service was cut on the Yakima-Ellensburg Commuter, going from eight roundtrips to seven roundtrips when school is in session and six roundtrips when school is not in session. As a result of the 20% cut in service for the second half of the year,ridership decreased by around 25%. The farebox- recovery ratio for this service is at 15.3%. Most recently, the City of Ellensburg elected to participate in the Commuter service. In 2018, Yakima Transit will seek to add an additional round-trip run in the mornings. Capital Funds Yakima Transit sets aside $1,250,000 annually in the capital reserve account for major capital projects like vehicle and facility replacement/expansion, as well as other smaller capital improvement projects. When revenue exceeds actual costs, those additional funds are put into a reserve account for either capital 13 ` �, Annual Report for 2016&Transit Development Plan 2017—2022 17 or operating. With proposed capital facility improvements over the next six years,the amount set aside will need to continue in order to complete the anticipated projects. Most of the time, grant funding is used for a portion of capital projects,primarily to replace vehicles. General Forecast In the general forecast, several years show high expenditures as a result of vehicle replacement. Replacing vehicles are balanced out with the reserve account(ending cash balance) ensuring that Yakima Transit is financially healthy while upgrading the fleet. Yakima Transit's vehicle replacement schedule accelerates vehicle replacement at an annual rate of 2-3 buses each year then back to a schedule of replacing buses at a rate of 1.5 fixed-route buses, 1.5 vanpool vans, and 3 paratransit vehicles each year. With the changes to the system, there is enough money in the capital budget to allow for these purchases. Buses typically cost$450K,Vanpool vans $40K, and Dial- A-Ride vehicles $37K vans& 15-passenger cutaway buses $140K. Approximately one-third of Yakima Transit's fleet is past its"useful life." A general financial forecast is shown in Appendix A. SECTION VII: SIGNIFICANT OPERATING & CAPITAL CHANGES, 2017 — 2022 Other than vehicle replacement and equipment upgrades,Yakima Transit doesn't have any significant operating changes planned for 2017-2022. Major projects are listed in the six-year transit improvement plan—project list, Appendix C. Maps of the current system are shown in Appendix E-G. There have been several changes and upgrades in 2016, including upgrading the modems, cameras, and bus computers, adding live video streaming capabilities to assist supervisors, dispatchers, and the Yakima Police Department, and implementing Tablets into the buses in order to assist with passenger counts and uses GPS to pinpoint each individual trip and allow Yakima Transit to more fully understand ridership trends to meet passenger needs,both increasing efficiency and making the service more cost effective. Over the next two years,Yakima Transit anticipates adding twenty more passenger shelters along the fixed route system that on average has one passenger shelter for every five miles of bus service. Several future transit facilities are planned. The Central Yakima Transit location and West Valley Transfer Center are anticipated to be started in 2021 to help with Yakima Transit's transition to an alternative fuel bus fleet(if feasible). Grant funding is anticipated for all capital projects. VIII. Summary Overall, Yakima Transit's revenues and expenses are stable. Capital projects that have been delayed year after year are anticipated to be an option in the coming years. Fixed-routes are anticipated to be reestablished and services can be added where they are needed in the coming years. Services are anticipated to be more flexible so Yakima Transit can more fully serve the public. 14 ` �, Annual Report for 2016&Transit Development Plan 2017—2022 18 APPE DIX A: OPERATING Fl ANCIAL DATA - 2015 Annual - & Budget 2016-2021 TRANS IT 0 PERATI ONS (in thousands) 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Beginning Balance $1,985 $2,545 $2,793 $3,117 $3, .i, $3,583 $3,669 nagassan.rmrtlinnx: v.****rim-Ylterseaseas annisamik........aaAk.sk..kaiaaa.....aaaaaaaaa Sales Tax $4,605 $4,550 $4,550 $4,550 $4,550 $4,550 $4,550 Farebox $594_ $515 $520 $550_ $520 $550 $650 Commuter Fares $73 $107 $115 $100 $110 $100 $110 Paratransit Fares $121 $120 $110 $110 $110 $120 $120 Vanbool Revenue $162 $150 $150 $160 $150 •$160 $160 Selah $291 $302 $324 $324 $324 $344 $344 Federal Operating Grants $2,425 $2,269 $2, 1.1 $2,,11 $2„,1.1 $2„,us $2„.,ct WSDOT Grants $391 $425 $470 $500 $595 $595 $625 Other $162 $156 $170 $174 $178 $182 $186 Total Revenues $8,824 Ss„ I, Ss„.01.
