The estimated costs totaled $315,736 which included $120,720 for the purchase of ttao transit buses and ancillary equipment. Based on the estimates, the Cit~a's FY 75-76 LTF claim was determined to be $137,584. This amount was later amended to include reimbursement to the City for the cost of the Transit i~Teeds Study ($18,250). Total LTF receipts for 1•'Y 75-76 were $155, 334. The rules and regulations of the Transportation Development Act stipu- late that LTr claims will be adjusted on the basis of a year-end audit of the transit operation. The audited expenses for FY 75-76 were con- siderably lower tha17 originally estimated, partly because the transit buses were not pure}used.

Therefore, the required City contribution ($29x280) was not transferred to the Bus Service Fund; a transfer is now required to repay the City's LTF account. The Finance Department has recommended the use of Federal Anti-Recession Funds.
