For Meeting of: June 17, 2014 ITEM TITLE: Resolution authorizing a grant agreement with the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) to allow Yakima Transit to expand and resurface the Firing Center Park & Ride. SUBMITTED BY: Scott Schafer, Public Works Director, 576 -6411 Alvie Maxey, Acting Transit Division Manager SUMMARY EXPLANATION: Due to continued success of the Yakima - Ellensburg Commuter Service, Yakima Transit applied for grant funding in 2012 to expand and resurface the Firing Center Park & Ride. The funds were awarded June 2013. The grant agreement in the amount of $240,000 required a 20% match and since the property is owned and controlled by WSDOT and Yakima County, their contribution of $60,400 in land will be used as matching funds for this grant. The total cost of the project is $302,000. The expansion of the Park & Ride lot will provide added parking for passengers using the Yakima - Ellensburg Commuter, carpooling, or using Yakima Transit's fixed -route bus system as it connects through the City of Selah. Because the property is owned by Yakima County and WSDOT and controlled & maintained by WSDOT, WSDOT will be contracted with to do the design and construction of the park & ride expansion and resurfacing. There is no cost to the City of Yakima for the proposed project. The City of Yakima will receive up to $10,000 for costs related to administering the grant. Grant Agreement GCB1512 is in the amount of $240,000 (see attached agreement).
