ITEM EXPLANATION (4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES NO x )
Council approved the formation of the CITY/COUNTY Joint
Powers Ag ency establishing SCOOT on June 19, 1979. At that
time we informed Council we would be coming back to them
with a bus service contract between the City and SCOOT.
This agreement authorizes SCOOT to provide transit service
in the City in FY 1980 and permits SCOOT to claim LTF monies
from the apportionment of the City to finance the costs of
such service provision.
This agreement follows the same basic
transit service contract between Chul
of San Diego. It authorizes SCOOT to
allocated FY 1980 monies available in
account, which total $937,000. These
estimated FY 1980 CVT operating costs
$77,000 capital costs.

The City still falls under the 50~ LTF limitation
requirement until such time as this service contract takes
effect. It is anticipated that this date will be September
1, 1979. Thus the City will be required to expend. about
$20,000 towards CVT operating costs out of its General Fund
for local bus service for the first two months of this
fiscal year.

Supplemental Page Two
County staff has informed the Transit Coordinator that the
Board o.f_ Supervisors i.s expected to approve their bus
service contract with SCOOT on July ?_~, 1979. The County
will contract with S000'r f_or the same dollar amount of
service that it presently contracts with the City to provide
bus service in the unincorporated portion of the CVT service
area. Thus SCOOT will claim $~?_,ri0 of_ County LTF monies to
finance the corresponding share of its operating costs.
These servir_e contracts as weJ.l as a proposed SCOOT/Aztec
service contract will supersede the existing County/City
Transit contract and the City/Aztec FY 19~?~ CV'I' contract,
respectively.
The estimated timetable for all remaining actions that need
to take place in order for SCOOT to be in operation is as
follows:
1. Approval by the ~;COO'P Board, which should have its
first meeting in early August, of the service contracts
with the City and the County, the SCOOT LTF claim to
MTDB and CPO, and the service contract with Aztec Bus
Lines to provide existing FY 1930 CVT service.
2. Approval by MTDB and CPO at their August meetings of
the SCOOT service contracts and the ^COOT LTF claim.
3. Approval of the LTF claim by the Secretary of State a.nd
County Auditor, anticipated in late August,
4. If all the above times are met, we expect SCOOT to be
in full operation by September tr 1979,
