RECOMMENDATION

Approve and accept the Transit Asset Management (TAM) Plan prepared by the Redding Area Bus Authority (RABA) and concur with recommendations in the TAM Plan.

SUMMARY

A Transit Asset Management Plan is proposed to comply with federal requirements.

DISCUSSION

Federal regulations (49 CFR part 625) require the adoption of a Transit Asset Management (TAM) Plan.  TAM plans shall set forth inventory and maintenance programs for transit assets.  The Redding Area Bus Authority (RABA) provides transit service in the Redding area and separately to Burney.  RABA’s TAM plan encompasses the Burney Express busses as well.  Staff recommends that the Board accept the TAM Plan prepared by RABA and concur with recommendations in the TAM Plan.

ALTERNATIVES

The Board may decline to accept the RABA TAM plan.  A separate TAM plan would be required or federal funds would be foregone.

OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT

Caltrans oversees County transit operations. RABA prepared the plan with input from Department staff. The recommendation has been reviewed by the County Administrative Office.

FINANCING

Transit funding is derived from dedicated state and federal sources. Adequate resources have been included in the Adopted 2018/19 Transit Budget. There is no General Fund impact.
