Allan Ekberg, Mayor 11111111111111 Department of Community Development - Nora Gierloff, A!CP, Director TO: FROM: Nora Gierloff, DCD Director BY: Alison Turner, Sustainable Transportation Program Manager Chris Andree, Sustainable Transportation Outreach Coordinator Transportation & Infrastructure Services Committee CC: Mayor Ekberg DATE: November 13, 2023 SUBJECT: Agreement with Hopelink for TDM Outreach Services ISSUE The Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Program is asking for approval to amend Contract 22-153, a subcontract with Hopelink to provide TDM outreach services. BACKGROUND The City's TDM Program has partnered with Hopelink for the last 5-plus years to provide TDM services to priority populations including people with disabilities, veterans, immigrants and refugees, people with lower incomes, youth, and seniors. Since 2020, the TDM Program has had subcontracts with Hopelink using WSDOT Regional Mobility Grant funding. DISCUSSION The amendment would extend the contract through June 30, 2025, and add $65,000 to the budget for the additional 1.5 years. This is an increase from the original contract budget of $38,000 for 1 year to account for increasing cost of living and staff salaries. FINANCIAL IMPACT There will be no impact to the general fund. The $65,000 subcontract will be reimbursed by a WSDOT Regional Mobility Grant (Contract 21-115). RECOMMENDATION The Council is being asked to approve amending Contract 22-153 with Hopelink and consider this item on the Consent Agenda at the December 4, 2023, Regular Meeting.
