Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request for approval of a renewal option to an interlocal agreement with City of Galveston-Island Transit for RIDES Program for non-emergency transportation services for the elderly, disabled or low income that have no alternative transportation for the Community Services Department through May 24, 2025 with revenue in the amount of $400,000.
end
Background and Discussion:
This program helps with transportation for the less fortunate by allowing for individuals to get easy access to transportation as needed for no- emergency services. This helps to enrich the community and allow for the elderly, disabled and those with low income to have a higher quality of life that this transportation brings.
Expected Impact:
If these services were to halt, those without transport would have difficulty traveling throughout the city of Galveston and Houston. This would impede access to necessities and other services.
Alternative Options:
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
X Transportation
_ Flooding
_ Environment
_ Governance and Customer Service
