AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
11. CONSENT AGENDA
ITEM #/SUBJECT:
# Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute an amendment to ICB 1101
(05) 33, a Texas Department of Transportation Section 5311 f grant for
renovation/expansion of the Downtown Transfer Plaza. (Citibus)
BACKGROUND DISCUSSION:
The TxDOT Section 5311 (f) rural public transportation grant in the amount of $673,430
was approved by the City Council at the September 27, 2010 meeting. The grant funds
are for Phase I and Phase 2 of the Downtown Transfer Plaza renovation/expansion
project. The Downtown Transfer Plaza needs to be expanded to allow for adequate space
to conduct Greyhound services. Citibus is the local agent for Greyhound. The City of
Lubbock has been awarded this grant due to the Downtown Transfer Plaza being a multi-
modal facility that services public transportation buses and over the road coaches that
serves the citizens in outlying/rural communities. The contract is effective when fully
executed by both parties, and shall remain in effect until December 31, 2411.
The grant was received/approved late causing a delay in the start of the project. The
architect has reported that they will not be able to have the project completed by
December 31, 2011. In addition, the Citibus' IT staff member that was going to complete
most of the IT work for the project has left Citibus to pursue other opportunities.
Therefore, it will be necessary to bid out the work that the staff member was going to be
responsible for. Preparing and awarding the bid will take more time than had been
scheduled for in the project. Therefore, TxDOT has extended the Section 5311 (f) grant
until August 31, 2012.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Acceptance of this grant amendment will result in no additional cost to the City of
Lubbock.
SUMMARY/R.ECOMMENDATION:
Citibus recommends the approval of the Texas Department of Transportation Section
5311 (0 grant amendment.
