DATE: May 14, 2008 FROM: Judith Ure Administrative Services 541-330-4627 TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM: Consider appointments to Deschutes County Special Transportation Fund (STF) Committee PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS DATE? No BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS: Counties that receive funding from the Oregon Department of Transportation's (ODOT) Special Transportation Fund (STF) must maintain an advisory committee to review sub -recipient grant applications and recommend funding decisions. ODOT specifies that this committee must include at least five County residents who have knowledge and/or experience in transit issues, reflect geographic balance and diversity, and, a majority of whom, represent the elderly and disabled communities. The Deschutes County STF Committee also excludes individuals who are closely affiliated with agencies that receive STF funds as sub -recipients. In conformance with these requirements, staff recommends appointing Carol Bro of the Central Oregon Council on Aging (COCOA) as a new member of the STF Committee. Ms. Bro was an active participant in the recent Oregon Solutions coordinated transportation system planning meetings, is knowledgeable and experienced in issues related to transportation services for senior citizens, and is based in Redmond, a community not currently geographically represented on the committee. Although her agency has received STF funds in the past, COCOA recently transferred this responsibilitity to the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council (COIC) and, as of this year, is no longer a direct recipient. In addition to appointing a new member to the STF Committee, staff recommends that La Dean Eicker and June Slaugenhaput, committee members whose terms recently expired, be reappointed through 12/31/11. A chart which illustrates the current STF Committee and proposed appointments is attached. FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None. RECOMMENDATION & ACTION REQUESTED: Appoint Carol Bro and reappoint LaDean Eicker and June Slaugenhaupt to the Special Transportation Fund Committee. Authorize Board Chair's signature on attached appointment letters.
