TEXAS TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION VARIOUS Counties MINUTE ORDER Page I of I ALL Districts Texas Transportation Commission (commission) takes special note of its designation by the governor as the administering agency for the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) grant program, "Formula Grants for Special Needs of Elderly Individuals and Individuals with Disabilities" (49 U.S.C. §5310), in a letter dated October 4, 2005; and further acknowledges that federal program regulations require the Texas Department of Transportation (department) to ensure that grant funds are distributed fairly and equitably within the state. The United States Congress has passed a Continuing Resolution for a five -month period; the FTA has available funds for this period. As soon as authorizing legislation covering the remainder of the fiscal year or a portion of it has been enacted, the additional funds will be made available. Awards to transit operators are calculated in accordance with the formula in Title 43, Texas Administrative Code §31.31. The distribution is shown in Exhibit A. Title 43, Texas Administrative Code, §5.73 establishes the process for which Transportation Development Credits (TDC) may be awarded at the discretion of the commission. The commission passed Minute Order 110771, on December 14, 2006, expressing its intent to award TDC that will promote public transportation capital infrastructure projects: fleet replacement, fleet expansion, maintenance facilities; and capital projects that support regional coordination. The commission finds that the projects in Exhibit A are eligible for funding and awards a total of $3,018,224 in federal Formula Grant funds for Special Needs of Elderly Individuals and Individuals with Disabilities and 373,135 in TDC. The projects receiving TDC awards will reduce congestion by improving reliable transit options therebv ,---- 'ng levels of ridership; expand economic opportunity by increasing �r the transit dependent populations to jobs and other necessary actin echanical breakdowns; improve air quality by reducing emission,, bus industry; and increase the value of the transportation assets by inv. fated rolling stock thus yielding savings and efficiencies which Ilv_ r ps.

The commission passed Minute Order 112145, on February 25, 2010, awarding the available portion of the FY 2010 federal §5310 program funds in accordance with the five month continuing resolution of SAFETEA-LU passed by the United States Congress. The United States Congress has now passed a continuing resolution of SAFETEA-LU through December 2010, and the FTA has announced the total available funds for FY 2010 §5310 federal apportionment for Texas. The balance of the FY 2010 §5310 federal apportionment for Texas, including deobligated funds from previous awards, is awarded under this minute order. Awards to transit operators are calculated in accordance with the formula in Title 43, Texas Administrative Code, §31.31. The distributions are shown in Exhibit A. Title 43, Texas Administrative Code, §5.73 establishes the process for which Transportation Development Credits (TDC) may be awarded at the discretion of the commission.
