Description
The regular monthly meeting of the Central Oklahoma Transportation and Parking Authority, via video conference, for August 7, 2020.
D
Was
I'm
in.
B
B
B
B
B
Yes,
I
can,
and
are
you
in
the
process
of
logging
into
prime
gov.
F
G
H
H
H
Yeah
all
right,
I
have
nine
o'clock
and
it
looks
like
we
have
a
quorum,
so
I
will
call
the
meeting
to
order.
I
want.
H
Also,
you
are
going
to
have
a
a
citizen
to
be
heard,
and
I
will
remind
that
person
that
when
I
call
upon
him
he
has
to
press
star
six
to
be
able
to
speak
all
right
items
from
the
chairman.
I
do
have
three
items.
I
want
to
congratulate
iris
newman
on
her
retirement
yesterday,
she's
been
as
pleasant
a
person
to
work
for
and
work
with,
as
anybody
we've
had.
I
don't
know
what
jason's
going
to
do
without
her
or
what
any
of
us
are
going
to
do
without
her,
but
I.
H
Of
advice
that
my
dad
once
told
me
said
you
can't
retire
from
something
you
have
to
retire
to
something
and
she
said:
she'd,
take
that
advice
to
heart
and
try
to
retire
to
something
so
also
citizens
to
be
heard.
I'm
going
to
move
that
to
the
end
of
the
individual
considerations
on
item
e
one
and
two,
because
we
do
have
a
citizen
that
has
called
in
and
wants
to
speak
to
that,
so
I'm
going
to
move
that
to
the
to
the
end
of
the
individual
considerations.
H
F
H
F
H
So
all
right,
thank
you,
we'll
see
if
we
can
make
it
through
another
year
with
our
same
slate
of
officer.
So
our
next
item
is
approval
of
our
minutes
of
the
transportation
committee
meeting
of
july
7th
any
corrections
or
additions
or
questions
about
those
minutes.
If
not
I'd
have
a
motion
to.
H
H
K
F
H
Motion
passes
also,
then,
we
have
approve
of
our
minutes
of
the
july
10th
cop
to
board
meeting
again
any
questions,
donations
or
additions,
if
not
I'd,
have
a
motion
to
approve
barney.
I
H
Motion
motion
passes
our
consent,
docket
several
items
on
there
are
there
any
items
any
of
the
trustees
would
like
individual
consideration
or
individual
discussion
on
or
jason.
Are
there
any
any
of
the
items
that
you'd
like
to
make
mention
of.
L
Not
particularly,
I
did
want
to
see,
mr
chairman,
if
we
could
just
check
in
with
lisa
real,
quick
and
see
if
we
are
lisa.
Are
we
in
a
position
where
we
can
now
use
prime
gov
to
vote
on
the
rest
of
the
agenda.
I
L
L
Oh,
no,
it's
fine
we're
just
just
checking
okay!
No,
mr
chairman,
there's
no
items
I
had
in
particular
to
mention.
H
B
J
I
It
it
passed
and
unanimously,
and
I
don't
think
councilman
cooper
or
trustee
cooper
was
able
to
vote
so
it
showed
about
him.
I
don't
know
if
he's
in
the
meeting
or.
H
But
it
was,
the
motion
did
pass
so
all
right,
we'll
move
on
to
individual
consideration
items
item
a
is
a
contract
with
etc
institute
for
market
research.
First
year
estimated
costs
193
000
it's
from
august
7th
to
august
6
of
2025.
L
Yeah
just
a
few
comments
as
you'll
recall,
the
trust
approved
staff
negotiating
with
etc.
Last
month
we
were
able
to
successfully
conclude
those
negotiations
and
so
etc.
Will
once
again
be
our
consultant
for
our
customer
and
our
non-rider
survey
you
all
are
familiar
with
etc
and
their
work
they've
been
with
us
for
several
years.
L
on
the
memo.
We
have
an
estimated
cost
there
at
the
bottom
of
just
over
68
000.
So
the
68
000
is
an
error
in
that
the
total
first
year
cost
we're
asking
the
trust
for
is
193,
and
the
reason
for
that
is
because
we
would
like
to
do
a
new
survey
that
we
haven't
done
in
the
past
this
very
first
year
of
the
contract.
That's
an
origin
and
destination
survey
where
we
will
actually
as
it
the
name
implies,
ask
people.
Where
are
you
actually
starting
your
trip
and
where?
Where
are
you?
L
Actually
you
know
what
is
your
final
destination
and
using
that
data?
Our
hope
is
to
be
able
to
use
that
extra
data
that
we
really
haven't
ever
gathered
before
be
able
to
provide
that
data
to
our
consultant
that
we're
looking
forward
to
in
terms
of
updating
our
system
plan.
So
all
that
said
to
say
the
first
year
cost
is
higher
than
the
subsequent
years.
Subsequent
years
will
be
closer
to
the
68,
000
or
70
000
that
we
have
listed
at
the
bottom
of
the
memo.
B
H
H
That's
an
amendment
number
two
to
the
professional
service
agreement
from
dewitt
investments,
dba
elite
protection,
services
for
streetcar
fare
inspections
and
security
services,
providing
services
all
the
additional
locations,
an
estimated
annual
cost
of
400
000..
Is
this
the
same
firm
we've
used
before
jason.
L
Yeah
we've
been
using
elite
security
now
for
over
a
year,
primarily
on
our
streetcar
operations,
and
this
amendment
will
actually,
as
it
as
it
mentions,
allow
us
to
add
additional
locations
for
security,
primarily
the
transit
center.
L
So
our
hope
is
to
be
able
to
use
elite
more
at
the
transit
center
than
the
off-duty
police
officers
that
have
been
helping
us
with
that
over
the
last
year
and
we
do
expect
some
savings
by
allowing
elite
to
do
more
of
that
security
again,
depending
on
how
many
hours
they
you
know,
actually
work
within
the
next
fiscal
year,
we're
estimating
anywhere
from
85
000
to
125
000
in
overall
savings.
By
making
this
change.
H
L
Mr
chairman,
can
I,
before
I
get
into
the
details
of
this
item,
could
could
I
ask
haley
our
legal
counsel
since
the
just
for
a
procedural
question,
since
the
votes
are
not
visible
on
the
screen,
I'm
just
wondering
if
we
should
be
doing,
should
we
be
doing
a
roll
call,
since
the
votes
aren't
visible
to
the
public,
I
know
we're
seeing
the
who's
moving
it
and
who's.
Second
seconding.
It
we're
not
seeing
the
actual
votes,
so
I
have
haley
here.
Is
this
so
just
do
you
mind
if
I
ask
real
quick.
L
L
Okay,
so
mr
chairman
haley
has
said:
if,
if
we
would
like
to,
you
know
absolutely
ensure
that
the
votes
are
on
the
record,
we
should
probably
do
roll
call
vote
since
the
public
can't,
you
know,
can't
see
who's
voting.
Okay,
that's
fine
I'll
call!
If
that's
okay,
all
right!
L
Okay,
all
righty,
so
yes,
sir
pardon
the
interruption.
The
the
next
yeah
the
next
item
here
is
it's
a
pretty
exciting
project
that
we're
launching.
This
is
just
the
first
step
in
having
a
consultant
come
in
and
really
take
a
look
at
our
you
know
entire
bus
system.
L
I
think
we
talked
a
little
bit
about
this
during
the
last
trust
meeting.
We
had
a
transportation
committee
meeting
where
we
discussed
the
possibilities
of
bringing
in
a
consultant
to
really
do
another
system
analysis
just
like
we
did
starting
back
in
2012
when
the
firm
nelson
nygard
helped
us
realign
our
bus
system
revisit
and
enhance
some
of
our
frequencies.
L
Well,
you
know
again,
it's
been
eight
years
really,
since
that
project
started
a
lot
has
changed
within
our
community,
and
so
thanks
to
the
guidance
of
the
transportation
committee,
the
decision
was
made
and
recommended
that
we
move
forward
with
hiring
a
consultant
to
come
in
and
take
another
look
at
our
system,
and
so
as
you'll
see
in
the
memo.
L
Basically,
what
they're
going
to
help
us
do
is
they're
going
to
help
us
evaluate
our
service
frequency
they're,
going
to
help
us
evaluate
our
service
hours,
our
service
coverage
area,
but
a
lot
of
other
things
all
the
way
down
to
helping
us
plan
for
future
facility
improvements
to
bus,
stop
spacing
just
a
real,
comprehensive
look
at
our
our
bus
system,
and
the
idea
is
to
come
out
of
that,
of
course,
with
a
with
a
plan,
a
plan
that
we
can
continue
to
to
work
incrementally.
Just
like
we
did
the
previous
one.
L
So,
with
authorization
of
this
item,
staff
will
advertise
an
rfp
and
we
will.
We
will
publish
that
and
begin
working
through
that
process
and,
of
course,
bringing
all
the
requests
to
negotiate
and
eventually,
a
final
contract
to
the
trust
for
consideration.
H
H
Resolution
adopting
state
contract
for
the
purchase
of
cng
floor
vans
and
two
cng
low
floor
van
to
replace
two
vehicles
so
seemed
like
we
had
an
item
on
the
agenda
last
last
month
for
something
similar,
but
these
are
smaller
buses.
I
guess.
L
Right,
yeah
last
month,
the
board
approved
us
ordering
some
of
the
large
some
new
fixed
route
buses
with
approval
of
this
item,
we'll
be
able
to
order
two
new
paratransit
buses
that
will
replace
two
of
the
buses
in
our
fleet
that
are
past
their
useful
life.
L
I
would
like
to
share
with
the
trust
that
we
are
looking
forward
to
trying
these
new
vehicles.
They
are
a
they're,
a
different
style
than
the
paratransit
vehicles
that
we
currently
have
in
service
today,
meaning
they're
a
low
floor
model,
paratransit
van-
and
you
know,
there's
some
there's
some
advantages
to
that
without
getting
into
all
the
technical
details,
the
the
biggest
change
is
the
the
suspension
on
these
vehicles.
L
It's
a
hydraulic
suspension
that
will
actually
let
the
vehicle
lower
to
where
we
can
deploy
a
ramp
for
those
that
are
needing
mobility,
assistance
to
be
able
to
access
the
vehicle,
rather
than
the
style
that
we
have
now,
which
would
require
basically
a
lift.
So,
there's
less
maintenance
for
us,
of
course,
because
we
don't
have
a
lift
to
maintain
a
hydraulic
lift,
basically
or
but,
but
in
addition
to
that,
just
from
the
standpoint
of
of
safety,
the
ride
in
these
vehicles
is
supposed
to
be
more
stable.
L
With
that
hydraulic
style
suspension,
it's
supposed
to
prevent
the
bus
from
you
know,
having
a
little
bit
of
a
a
you
know,
a
rocking
motion
say
when
you're
going
around
corners
or
you're
hitting
a
bump,
not
that
it's
not
that
ours
now
are
you
know
uncomfortable.
These
will
just
be
an
improved
ride
so
anyway,
we're
looking
forward
to
adding
these
to
the
fleet,
and
hopefully
we'll
have
an
opportunity
to
show
show
them
to
the
trustees
when
they
when
they
arrive
the
other.
I
L
Yeah
yeah
the
it
speeds
the
procurement,
the
entire
procurement
process
up
because
we're
not
doing
our
own,
you
know
we're
not
having
to
do
our
own
procurement,
so
once
that
state
contract
is
in
place,
we
can
essentially
order
off
that
state
contract
anytime.
We
want
without
really
doing
any
additional
procurement
are
on
our
end.
Now
now
with
that,
with
that
said,
one
thing
we
have
talked
about
as
staff
and
we
are
working
on
is
as
we
order
these
two
and
evaluate
them.
L
We
probably
would
look
at
doing
our
own
solicitation
just
to
see
if
we
can
get
a
better
price
by
guaranteeing
a
manufacturer,
a
manufacturer,
a
certain
number
of
vehicles
over
a
certain
amount
of
time,
so
we
could
still
and
probably
will
still
do
a
procurement
on
this
on
these
type
of
buses.
If
we
transition
to
them
and.
L
K
Other
questions,
yeah
jason-
I
don't
remember
when
the
the
state
contract
or
the
what
am
I
looking
for
that
language,
this
yeah
the
state
contract.
I
remember
us
doing
that
in
the
past.
How
does
what
makes
that
an
option
here.
L
Yeah,
it's
it's
just
part
of
the
the
cities.
Well,
there's
two
twofold:
it's
part
of
the
city's
procurement
policies
that
they
will
adopt
the
state
contract
and
and
the
city
itself
can
purchase
off
of
state
contracts,
because
the
state
too
demonstrates
that
those
contracts
were
competitively
bid
and
so
as
a
trust
of
the
city,
our
part
of
our
purchasing
policies
and
procedures
reference
we
we
will
and
can
take
advantage
of
city
and
state
contracts.
So
that's
that's
one
thing
that
allows
us
to
purchase
off
a
state
contract.
L
They
also
allow
us
to
purchase
off
state
contract,
but
it
is
on
us
to
be
able
to
demonstrate
that
that
state
contract
you
know,
met
competitive
bidding
requirements
and
contains
all
the
the
purchase
that
we
do
contains
all
the
required
federal
disclosures.
So.
L
Useful
life
is
five
years,
but
I
will
tell
you
and
the
credit
goes
to
our
maintenance,
the
division
that
you
know
these.
These
buses
are
going
on
six
years
old,
so
we've
kept
them
actually
longer
than
five
years,
so
we
made
it,
we've
been,
we've
been
able
to
make
them
last
longer
than
the
fed.
The
useful
life
is
defined
by
the
feds.
Okay.
Thank
you.
H
B
H
Item
and
as
I
mentioned
in
the
beginning
of
the
meeting
that
we
do
have
a
citizen
or
we
had
a
citizen
to
be
heard-
and
I
suppose
he's
still
online
and
I
will
mind
him
after
the
discussion
on
this
item.
He
has
to
press
star
six
to
to
speak
so
jason
I'll.
Let
you
cover
item
e
one
and
two,
and
then
we'll
have
our
questions
from
the
trust
and
citizen.
L
Sure
so,
on
item
e,
as
you
mentioned,
it's
two
part.
We
would
like
to
obviously
first
hold
our
official
public
hearing
that
we're
required
to
do
anytime.
We
make
any
type
of
service
changes
to
our
bus
system
and
that's
really
what
the
accompanying
resolution
is
about,
and
that
is
asking
the
trust
for
authorization
to
make
changes
to
routes,
9,
10,
23,
24
and
adding
some
new
service.
L
What
we're
referring
to
is
route
44
that
will
provide
a
limited
number
of
trips
during
the
week
to
the
social
security
office,
and
so
what
I'd
like
to
do
at
this
time,
if
I
could,
mr
chairman,
is
turn
it
over
to
michael
scroggins,
who
will
provide
some
details
about
those
route
changes
for
the
benefit
of
the
information
we
need
to
share
during
this
public
hearing-
and
I
might
also
mention
that,
although
today
is
our
official
public
hearing
for
these
changes,
we
have
had
three
prior
community
meetings
leading
up
to
this
public
hearing,
where
we've
shared
the
same
information
in
order
to
gain
you
know,
input
from
our
community
and
our
customers.
L
L
L
C
C
M
Yes
morning,
thank
you
for
this
opportunity
to
share
a
little
bit
about
the
service
changes
and
as
administrator
fairbrush
mentioned.
These
are
the
this
presentation
is
almost
exactly
the
same
as
what
has
been
presented
three
previous
times,
and
it
was
all
in
a
virtual
environment
as
well
as
just
like
this
meeting.
M
M
So
we
also
outlined
that
there
were
a
few
service
changes
that
took
effect
july
1st,
in
a
pilot
from
a
pilot
standpoint
and
was
later
then,
would
be
formalized
as
part
of
this
pilot.
This
formal
process
that
we're
going
through
here
in
the
public
hearing.
M
And
then
we
also
provided
just
a
summary
of
these
changes
in
a
quick,
just
bullet
type
point
of
view,
and
then
we
go
through
each
of
the
service
changes
so
I'll.
Take
you
through
real
quick
what
those
are
again
and
what
we're
looking
at
was
the
addition
of
service
to
the
social
security
office
and
as
a
reminder,
this
would
only
occur
three
days
out
of
the
week
and
only
when
the
building
is
open
to
the
public.
M
So
right
now
that's
four
trips
on
monday,
wednesday
and
friday,
and
this
service
is
publicly
or
is
funded
by
a
public-private
partnership
funded
by
the
developer
itself.
M
Another
another
service
change
that
we
are
proposing
is
the
elimination
or
the
retirement
of
route.
50.
route
50
currently
runs
from
6
a.m
to
midnight
7
days
a
week.
So
it's
got
a
significant
amount
of
resources
committed
to
this
service,
yet
it
has
the
lowest
ridership
per
service
hour
of
any
performing
route
in
the
system.
M
So
one
of
the
areas
where
those
one
of
the
routes
that
would
benefit
from
those
hours
is
route
9.
with
route
9.
We
currently
have
a
60
minute
frequency,
it's
one
of
those
final
routes
that
have
yet
to
make
it
to
that
30
minute
frequency,
as
described
in
that
earlier
nelson
nygard
report,
that
jason
mentioned
earlier.
M
M
M
Survey
results
in
that
this
is
one
of
those
routes
that
has
a
higher
potential
to
earn
more
ridership.
If
we
were
to
provide
additional
service
to
it,
so
this
is
one
that
is
data-driven
that
we're
hoping
to
see
additional
ridership
occur
as
employers
are
coming
into
the
oklahoma
city
area,
so
we
are
taking
it
from
two
trips
provided
by
oklahoma
city
and
four
by
norman
up
to
a
total
now
of
nine
round
trips.
M
As
you
know,
over
the
years
we've
really
tried
to
make
the
service
as
convenient
as
possible,
but
making
it
convenient
also
means
making
it
as
easy
to
understand
as
possible,
and
one
of
those
things
that
we
can
do
to
help
with
that
is
to
create
clock,
face
headways,
one
of
the
routes
that
has
not
been
on
a
clock,
face
headway
for
some
time
is
route
23,
and
because
of
that,
just
a
five
minute
variance.
We
we
have
misconnections
occurring
along
several
different
routes
along
route
23
and
keep
in
mind.
M
It
does
not
come
to
the
transit
center,
and
so
with
it
being
one
of
our
more
popular
routes.
It's
really
important
that
we
help
provide
those
connections
in
a
timely
way
so
that
they
can
they're
not
waiting
for
the
next
route.
Now
another
30
or
an
hour
depending
on
the
route
itself,
and
this
would
also
help
our
operators
to
maintain
a
better
schedule
by
giving
them
a
little
more
time
from
going
from
25
minutes
to
30
minutes.
M
So
it
seems
like
it
might
be
counterproductive
to
do
this,
but
in
reality
we're
creating
a
better
experience
for
our
customers
by
creating
more
reliable
network
with
route
23,
as
well
as
better
connections
for
those
route.
10
route,
7
route,
8
route,
5
route,
18
route,
3
route,
2
and
eventually
9
11
and
38
at
the
reno
mini
hub.
M
Another
important
component
to
this
service
change
for
route
10
is
helping
to
create
again
that
reliability
in
regards
to
this,
what
service
predictions
are
being
made
available
to
customers?
M
Currently,
this
is
a
30
minute
route
and
it
would
continue
to
be
a
30
minute
route,
except
from
about
3
o'clock
to
7
o'clock,
we're
looking
to
modify
the
route
slightly
by
adding
six
minutes
in
that
time
period,
and
what
really
won't
what's
really
happening
is
we're
creating
a
more
predictable
schedule
so
that
way
as
traffic
increases.
During
that
time
of
day,
we
are
able
to
maintain
a
schedule
and
provide
a
reliable
service
for
those
who
are
using
that
service.
M
We
have
received
feedback
over
the
years
from
a
few
individuals
who
continue
to
struggle
to
make
connections
with
route
10
because
of
the
increased
traffic
along
this
route,
and
so
by
adding
these
six
minutes,
we're
ba
we'll
be
able
to
create
a
schedule
that
is
going
to
be
reliable
in
our
real-time
announcements
that
we
we
publish,
and
so
that
would
be
in
google
or
the
transit
app
any
of
those
apps
where
they're,
using
that
to
predict
when
the
next
vehicle
will
arrive,
and
this
will
make
that
more
reliable
and
will
also
be
more
realistic.
M
The
thing
that
is
also,
it
may
seem
counterproductive.
But
again,
if
traffic
is
causing
that
to
occur,
then
what
we
want
to
make
sure
is
what
we're
providing
to
our
customers
is
the
most
accurate
prediction
of
when
the
next
bus
will
arrive.
Currently,
if
we
don't
do
this,
it's
showing
that
a
bus
will
arrive
when
it
won't
due
to
traffic
and
other
conditions
on
the
road.
M
So
this
is
one
of
those
that
we're
looking
at
different
ways
to
attempt
to
improve
the
on-time
performance,
and
this
is
the
one
that
would
have
the
least
amount
of
impact
to
the
overall
route,
as
we
looked
at
previously
in
other
discussions
and
that
wraps
up
all
of
the
service
changes
that
were
proposed,
we
did
provide
an
official
comment
card.
Those
were
available
at
the
transit
center
or
online
through
a
packet.
M
You
could
also
just
send
us
an
email
at
embark,
okay,
okc.gov
or
you
could
even
just
tweet
us
comments
which
we've
had
some
do
and
that
really
pretty
much
has
been
one
of
the
primary
ways
that
a
lot
of
people
communicate
with
us
regarding
the
route
and
with
that
I'd
be
glad
to
answer
any
questions
that
anyone
may
have
about.
The
proposed
service
changes.
G
I
am
now
okay,
I
am
now
there.
We
go
good
morning,
just
a
quick
little
comment.
Overall,
I
support
making
these
changes.
G
Is
that
something
that's
going
to
be
announced
over
the
weekend
or
what's
the
deal
on
that?
But
overall
I
do
support
making
these
changes.
I
am
for
a
more
efficient
system.
G
I
just
feel,
like
you
know
two
days:
that's
not
a
lot
of
time
to
prepare.
M
Absolutely
we
do
have
that
schedule
and
we
can
send
that
to
you
directly
if
you'd
like,
as
noted
on
the
slide,
I'm
trying
to
get
it
back
to
that.
M
All
right,
so
we
have
identified
that
schedule
and,
as
I
said,
I
could
send
that
to
you
directly,
but
we
do
know
that
it's
from
6
30
a.m
to
7
p.m.
That's
the
this
service
span
and
those
times
that
you
are
used
to
have
shifted
just
slightly
and
you'll,
see
that
there's
more
options
in
the
morning
and
in
the.
B
K
M
K
Yeah,
so
just
a
few
things,
one
I'm
very
excited
about
the
connection
to
the
social
social
security
office.
I
think
I
think
this
is
very
important.
I
don't
know
if
you
or
trustee
johnson
wanted
to
speak
to
the
the
history
of.
Why
why
this
service
wasn't
there?
I
know
laura,
is
pretty
good
at
explaining
that.
But
if
you'd
like
to
jason
or
sorry
michael,
that
would
be
helpful
too.
He
says.
I
I
It
moved
outside
of
the
cot
bus
service,
where
the
routes
ran
at
that
point,
and
so
the
developer
was
required
by
social
security
to
provide
bus
service
to
that
location
and
when
they
initially
did
it
edmond
could
provide
that
bus
service
more
effectively
or
cost
effectively.
I
should
say
than
kotpa.
I
I
I'm
happy
too
that
we're
bringing
this
back
under
oklahoma
city's
service,
but
I
will
say
that
I
I
just
would
implore
developers
when
they're
making
considerations
about
public
services,
especially
public
services
that
affect
our
are
our
citizens,
who
are
transit,
dependent
like
social
security,
that
they
would
consider
the
available
transit
system
in
that
decision
that
it's
a
really
critical
point,
not
just
for
the
people
who
are
served
by
those
offices,
but
also
for
the
people
who
work
in
them.
So
that's
that's
my
two
cents,
one
trustee
cooper.
K
Yeah
I
know
I
really
appreciate
that
backstory
and
the
perspective,
and
you
helped
me
better
understand
it
over
the
course
of
my
time
as
a
trustee,
and
I
don't
know
if
it's
because
shepard
is
in
ward
two
and
up
right
at
the
border
of
ward
six,
but
I
definitely
heard
ward
two
residents
express
similar
concerns
about
access.
So
I
think
this
is
a
wonderful
step
in
the
right
direction.
K
The
other
things
I
would
I
would
note
I
do
overall
support
where
we're
heading
here,
but
with
the
reno
across
town.
I
think
that's
good
moving
from
60
minute
frequency
to
30..
I
think
the
two
areas
where
I'm
still.
K
C
K
Hesitant-
and
I
hope
that
the
study
that
we
passed
earlier
is
going
to
help
us
address
address
these,
but
the
first
one
is
is
portland.
I
wish
council
person
greenwell
was
here
because
he
he
he
had
similar.
K
We
had
similar
ideas
to
what
I
I
was
expressing,
which
was
what
would
it
look
like
to
study
a
transit
only
lane
on
portland
between
23rd
and
36,
for
instance,
to
help
improve
the
frequency,
and
I-
and
this
came
back
to
my
mind-
everybody,
because
so
we
had
that
transit
meeting
discussion
several
weeks
ago.
K
But
then
this
week,
city
council
approved
a
street
enhancement
project
for
portland
and
to
try
and
improve
pedestrian
access
for
the
neighborhoods
to
the
park,
and
vice
versa,
and
I'm
still
really
interested
in
studying
that
that
particular
corridor
in
terms
of
walkability
bike
infrastructure-
and
you
know
just
knowing
that
this
is
a
route
where
the
bus
has
experienced
you
know
not
being
able
to
perform
at
the
the
frequency
that
that
we'd
all
would
like
like
to
see.
So.
K
The
other
one
that
where
I'm
really
really
worried
and
I'd
like
for
that
study
to
you
know
have
is
its
you
know-
notes-
is
23rd
street.
I
understand
that
this
is
going
to
provide
a
more
accurate
reflection
for
our
customers
in
terms
of
when
they
can
expect
the
bus
to
arrive.
K
For
me,
23rd
street
is
such
an
opportunity
for
the
city
to
even
you
know,
move
beyond
the
30-minute
frequency
and
achieve
that
industry
standard
of
15
minutes.
A
couple
things
have
happened
since
we
all
last
spoke
with
the
transit
committee.
K
One
is
I
sat
with
lashon
thompson
to
discuss
just
stops
across
the
city
and
23rd
street
is
just
looking
at
the
map.
There's,
so
many
traffic
stops,
and
I
mean
I'm
guessing
it's
because
of
the
sorry.
My
phone
is
deciding
that
it
wants
to.
K
Let
everyone
know
that
it's
got
some
messages,
but
the
23rd
street
there's
so
much
traffic
there,
probably
because
there's
such
a
revitalization
in
the
uptown
district,
paseo
district,
the
asian
district
ocu,
and
I
think
that
more
people
would
the
bet
the
more
reliable
that
transit
system
is
on
23rd.
K
The
more
likely
I
think,
choice
riders
will
use
that
transit
system
either
to
get
to
work
or
for
recreation
like
going
to
these
bars
these
restaurants,
the
shops
etc,
and,
I
think,
keeping
in
mind
several
upcoming
projects
right.
There's
the
street
enhancement
project
for
23rd
street,
that's
underway
in
terms
of
finalizing
its
concept
right
now,
and
that's
going
to
look
at
walkability,
etc.
K
Maps
4
looks
just
to
the
east
at
the
claro
looper
corridor,
123rd
all
the
way
to
I-35,
and
then
the
mayor's
beautification
project
looks
at
the
ocu
corridor
from
uptown
all
the
way
up
to
penn
and
then
maps.
Four
also
said:
how
do
we
better
connect
the
windsor
district
from
meridian
to
the
urban
core
so
depend
so.
I
just
think
that
that
whole
street
over
the
next
five
to
ten
years
of
our
lives
is
is,
is
it's
just
gonna?
K
It's
gonna
shift
and
I
think
we
need
to
be
ready
to
anticipate
as
a
public
transit
system
that
shift
and
that
shifts
specifically
as
it
relates
to
pedestrians,
people
using
bikes
for
transportation
and
people
using
public.
J
M
K
Important
to
me,
I
would
go
as
far
as
to
say
it's
a
priority
for
me,
so
I
just
wanted
to
keep
that
on
everyone's
radar,
because
I
think
some
people
will
see
the
shift
over
from
30
to
36
and
think
we're
going
in
the
opposite
direction
of
where
we
need
to
be,
whereas
what
we're
really
doing
is
just
showing
everybody
like
hey.
This
is
this
is
the
reality
in
which
we're
living
right
now,
but
I
just
I
felt
it's
very
important
that
I
voice
those
concerns.
C
J
K
H
James,
thank
you
any
other
questions.
If
not,
we
need
a
motion
to
approve
item
e.
H
J
F
J
F
J
D
D
H
B
H
Our
next
item
is
ratification
of
payroll
and
vendor
claims
for
the
period
july
7th
through
july
28th.
If
no
questions
on
any
of
those
vendor
claims
that
I'd
have
a
motion
to.
H
H
G
E
Yes,
we're
back
online.
I
apologize
again.
This
is
a
very
difficult
technology
meeting.
I
apologize
to
albatross.
H
H
Are
there
any
any
particular
ideas
or
on
the
on
the
on
the
budget
you'd
like
to
express.
L
Yeah
there's
there
are
a
few
items,
I'd
like
to
draw
the
trustee's
attention
to
and
keep
in
mind.
This
is
our
budget
to
actual
through
12
months,
and,
I
would
just
say,
through
12
months
of
the
fiscal
year.
L
You
know,
as
of
you
know
the
month
closing
around
mid-july,
but
you
know
when
you
do
the
year-end
close
there's
going
to
be
other
transactions
that
not
not
a
lot
of
significant
transactions,
but
the
numbers
will
change
slightly
as
we
close
the
year
out
and
fi
and
accounting
services
prepares
a
annual
financial
report
for
the
trust.
L
L
A
couple
of
comments
I
I
wanted
to
share
is
one
looking
at
the
overall,
the
actually
the
overall
operating
loss.
As
indicated
you'll
notice,
we
had
347
000
more
in
expenses
than
we
did
revenue
for
our
transportation
operations,
but
would
also
direct
your
attention
up
to
the
revenues
and
particularly
the
state
government
subsidy
revenue
line.
L
You'll
notice
that
shows
to
be
under
budget
by
about
350
000
and
that's
really
an
issue
of
timing.
We
did
receive
our
full
state
subsidy.
However,
we
received
that
last
subsidy
on
june,
the
27th
it
actually
wasn't
deposited
by
treasury
until
right
after
the
first
of
july.
So
that's
why,
though,
that
revenue
is
not
showing
up.
Essentially,
you
know.
If
you
had
that
revenue
back
in
then
the
operating
loss
is,
you
know
no
longer
there
we're
more
in
a
a
break,
even
type
situation
in
terms
of
revenue
versus
expenses.
L
L
We
committed
to
about
three
million
dollars
worth
of
care's
reimbursement
in
this
fiscal
year
and
in
turn
we
would
take
about
three
million
dollars
less
in
the
general
fund
subsidy,
and
so
I
wanted
to
let
you
know
that,
although
your
financial
here
reflects
2.8
million
of
cares
reimbursement
to
date,
we
we
do
have
another
114
000,
I'm
sorry
another
112
000
outstanding
for
fy20
directly
related
to
cares.
So
when
you
combine
that
outstanding
draw
that
we
will
be
receiving
for
f
for
fy
20,
the
number
is
going
to
be
closer
to
2.9
million.
L
I
just
just
shy
of
3
million,
so
we're
right
on
track
with
the
plan
that
we
had.
You
know
shared
with
the
trustees
and
then
a
similar
comment
on
federal
grants.
The
line,
the
revenue
line
above
that
you'll
notice
we're
a
million
three
under
budget.
But
we
do
have
you
know
again.
Some
of
our
year-end
draws
that
we're
we're
processing.
We
won't
close
that
full
million
three
gap,
but
we
have
several
hundred
thousand
dollars
of
federal
grant
revenue.
That's
outstanding.
That
is
really
fy,
20
expenses
that
we're
being
reimbursed
for
so.
L
L
So
so
that
concludes
my
comments
on
the
transportation
operations.
A
quick
comment
on
page
three.
Without
getting
into
a
lot
of
detail,
I
did
just
want
to
direct
the
trustee's
attention
to
the
financials
for
the
norman
operation.
You'll
notice
that-
and
we've
mentioned
this
before,
but
now
that
we're
wrapping
up
towards
the
end
of
the
year
and
the
revenue
from
norman
is
coming
in.
L
To
offset
our
expenses,
we
are
now
showing
a
situation
where
our
revenues
from
that
operation
exceed
our
expenses
and
just
as
a
reminder
with
the
contract
for
fy21,
we
were
able
to
negotiate
an
opportunity
to
build
the
city
of
norman
in
advance
so
that
you
know
we're
in
a
situation
where,
ideally,
our
revenues
are
exceeding,
or
we
have
our
revenues
to
support
our
expenses.
But
you
know
before
we
actually
have
the
expense
and
then,
on
page
four.
This
is
our
parking
operations
again
directing
your
attention.
I'll
just
start.
L
If
I
could,
by
directing
your
attention
to
the
operating
income
line,
you'll
notice,
we
have
a
positive
income
there
of
884
000
reflected
on
this
budget.
L
To
actual,
however,
there's
a
there's
a
couple
of
things,
I'd
like
to
mention
one
with
regards
to
expenses:
we
do
have
one
more
republic
invoice
to
pay
and,
as
you
know,
that
is
in
the
neighborhood
of
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
or
so
a
a
month,
so
that
operating
income
that
you
see
by
the
time
you
know
we
we
wrap
up
and
finalize
our
books
for
the
year
is
probably
going
to
be
closer
to
six
to
seven
hundred
thousand
versus
the
884
that
you
see
there
in
terms
of
revenues.
L
L
In
june
we
actually
had
about
32
000
in
transient
revenue
that
was
up
from
11
000
the
previous
month.
So
I
I
think,
that's
a
encouraging
indicator
that
there's
a
little
bit
more
business
occurring
downtown
and
people
are
parking
in
our
garages
to
conduct
that
business.
L
My
final
comments
will
be
on
page
seven.
This
is
the
streetcar
operation,
a
couple
things
to
point
out
here
again.
If
we
could,
if
we
just
look
at
the
revenues,
did
want
to
mention
that
you'll
notice,
the
general
fund
subsidy
exceeded
budget.
So
we
we
basically
requested
370
000
in
additional
general
fund
subsidy
for
the
streetcar
operation.
To
offset
some
shortfalls
we
had
in
other
revenue,
primarily
streetcar
fare
revenue.
L
Obviously
we
know
our
ridership
has
been
down
significantly
the
last
quarter
of
the
fiscal
year,
but
overall
we
were
trending
to
finish
under
budget
even
prior
to
march,
and
then
the
other
was
the
payments
from
the
maps
three
sales
tax
we
had
about
300
000,
budgeted
that
we
anticipated
we
would
receive
for
spare
parts
that
were
part
of
the
original.
L
L
The
final
comment
here
on
the
streetcar
operations
is
to
make
sure
you're
aware
that,
although
the
operating
income
shows
to
be
a
positive
300
000
for
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year,
we
do
have
one
outstanding
herzog
invoice,
those
invoices
or
that
invoice
is
going
to
be.
You
know
just
shy
there
of
300
000,
so
most
of
that
operating
income
surplus
that
you
see
will
be
consumed
by
that
last
herzog
invoice.
So
keeping
in
keeping
consistent
with
trustee
bryant's
observations
on
the
transportation
division.
L
Here
on
the
streetcar
operations,
we
show
we're
adding
to
fund
balance
on
this
budget
to
actual,
but
in
reality,
we'll
add
much
less
than
than
what
is
shown
there
once
we
pay
that
final
bill.
K
L
Yes,
that
yeah,
that
is,
we
we've,
been
very
fortunate
on
our
sponsorship
revenue
for
our
streetcar
operations.
L
L
L
So
that
is
forthcoming
to
the
trust
and
I'm
not
trying
to
I'm
not
trying
to
get
off
subject
there,
but
but
there
are
some
issues
with
advertising
overall,
but
with
streetcar
to
your
point,
we've
we've
weathered
the
last
three
months
pretty
well.
K
L
Bringing
a
contract
amendment
to
the
trust
that
will
that
will
change
if
nothing
else,
it
will
likely
change
the
guaranteed
minimum
amount
that
we
require
from
our
advertising
vendor
our
contract
basically
says:
hey,
there's
a
guaranteed
minimum
amount
that
you
know
we
expect
and
then
anything
above
and
beyond.
You
know
we
collect
as
well,
but.
K
H
H
L
Yes,
sir,
mr
chairman,
I'd
like
to
turn
it
over.
If
I
could
to
chip
nolan
to
provide
our
transit
system
update
and
he
and
jesse
rush,
our
streetcar
operations
manager
are
going
to
co-present
here
really
with
the
idea
of
providing
the
the
trust
an
overall
view
of
ridership
for
both
the
bus
system
and
the
streetcar
system
for
fy20
turn
it
over
to
mr
nolan.
L
L
L
C
Good
morning,
I'm
going
to
talk
about
ridership
a
little
bit
today.
First,
I
have
to
give
a
quick
thank
you
to
carrie
and
sam.
They
helped
me
compile
and
report
our
bus,
ridership
and
kerry
was
a
big
help
in
putting
this
presentation
together
as
well
as
marketing.
So
thank
you
to
caitlin
and
ty
as
well.
C
C
We
most
of
those
additional
days
are
because
we
added
holiday
service
starting
on
labor
day,
and
then
we
added
we
had
sunday
service
for
the
full
year
and
then
for
the
months
of
april
may
and
june,
we
had
45
days
of
reduced
service
where
we
did
not
provide
weeknight
service,
which
is
service
monday
through
friday,
from
seven
to
midnight.
So
you'll
see
those
reflected
in
the
ridership
numbers.
C
You
can
see
that
july
through
february,
ridership
was
very
in
line
with
the
previous
year,
a
slight
uptick,
and
then
you
can
see
a
pretty
dramatic
decline
in
the
last
four
months
of
the
fiscal
year
and
you'll
see
that
a
slight
decrease
in
march,
the
lowest
in
april,
and
then
it
starts
to
increase
in
again
in
may
and
june.
You'll
see
that
pattern
continue
on
the
rest
of
these
slides.
C
C
C
And
then,
lastly,
we'll
look
at
weekend
ridership
you
can
see
the
total
ridership
is
a
lot
higher
because
we
had
a
full
year
of
sunday
service
and
then
the
last
four
months.
The
drop
ridership
drop-off
wasn't
quite
as
dramatic
and
you,
if
you
see
june,
drop
off
there,
that's
because
there
was
an
extra
saturday
and
an
extra
sunday
in
the
month
of
may,
and
so
that
total
ridership
was
a
little
bit
higher
in
may.
C
But
then,
when
you
look
at
the
weekend
daily
average
ridership,
you
see
that
kind
of
pattern
of
increased
daily
ridership
for
april
may
and
june.
Again
and
again,
the
you
see
a
slight
decrease
in
july
through
february
here
in
this
last
slide.
That's
mostly
because
there's
been
a
little
bit
less
demand
on
sunday.
F
Good
morning,
good
morning,
chairman
trustees
morning
hope
everyone's
staying,
safe
and
healthy
out
there.
Chip,
as
always,
has
done
a
wonderful
job
of
providing
an
update
for
our
bus
ridership.
F
Before
we
jump
into
the
streetcar
urine
review
for
ridership.
I
wanted
to
sneak
this
beautiful
picture
into
the
the
presentation,
so
this
picture
here
is
from
a
few
weeks
ago,
when
we
we
got
the
streetcar
out
in
the
middle
of
night
and
musical
artist
jb.
We
helped
helped
him
produce
a
music
video
using
the
streetcar
inside
the
streetcar
and
outside
the
streetcar,
so
be
on
the
lookout
for
that
in
the
next
couple
of
weeks.
F
For
that
to
be
released
similar
to
the
chips
presentation,
I
want
to
take
a
quick
second
to
compare
the
two
fiscal
years
so
fiscal
year,
19
that
actually
service
began
for
us
on
december
14th
of
2018
and
ended
june
30th
2019.
So
we
had
a
total
of
199
service
days
that
199
days
included
141
weekdays
and
57
weekends.
F
We
did
have
six
days
of
reduced
service,
so
the
the
first
one
was
february
2nd
that
was
a
sunday
and
so
that
was
right
after
we
we
launched
and
right
before
we
started
issuing
or
having
fares
introduced,
and
so
we
took
that
sunday
to
get
everything,
make
sure
it
was
calibrated
and
ready
to
go
into
service
and
then
the
next
was
five
days
in
may
so
from
may
15th
to
may
20th.
F
We
had
robertson,
the
robinson
closure
due
to
the
the
window
washing
incident
while
they
secured
the
building
there
and
then
for
fiscal
year
20,
so
that
began
on
july,
1st
of
2019
ended
on
june
30th
of
2020.
We
had
a
total
of
366
total
service
days,
and
that
includes
an
extra
day
because
it
was
a
leap
year.
F
F
So
on
march
19th
we
reduce
service
to
end
at
10
pm.
You
know.
Normally
our
service
runs
until
midnight
monday
through
thursday
2
a.m,
fridays
and
saturdays
and
10
p.m.
On
sundays
so
beginning
on
march
19th,
we
cut
that
back
to
to
ending
at
10
p.m
and
then,
on
april
13th
we
pulled
that
back
even
further
to
ending
at
7
p.m.
F
F
All
right!
So
we're
going
to
jump
into
the
comparisons
here.
So
I'm
going
to
make
sure
that
I
walk
you
through
the
the
slide
here.
Make
sure
everyone
understands
it
so
on
this
graph
blue
represents
fy19,
which
I
mentioned
earlier
december.
14Th
was
our
first
day
of
service
running
through
june
30th
orange
represents
fy20,
which
begins
july
2019
and
ends
on
june
30
of
2020..
F
So
december
of
2018
was
our
opening
month
and
in
two
and
a
half
weeks
we
saw
a
little
over
40
000
riders,
so
incredible
incredible
month
for
us
right
so
but
december
is
a
difficult
month
to
compare,
because
we're
we've
got
the
the
opening
month
and
then
the
next
month
we've
got
normal
service
right.
So
we've
seen
some
some
decrease
there
january
of
2019.
F
We
were
still
writing
the
wave
of
the
opening
and
saw
over
25
000
writers
february
is
our
closest
month
of
comparison
because
february
of
2019
and
we
were
charging
fares,
we
had
normal
service
hours
and
then
and
that's
the
same
for
february
of
2020..
F
I
do
want
to
mention
that
you
know
december
january
and
february
are
our
coldest
historically
coldest
months
in
oklahoma
and
it's
it's
pretty
common
to
see
reduction
in
ridership
in
those
months.
F
Then
we
get
into
spring
and
summer
months,
where
our
ridership
begins
to
increase
you'll
notice
march
2019.
We
begin
to
increase
in
ridership
and
again
in
april
and
then
may
of
2019
you'll
you'll
see
that
there
is
a
slight
decrease
again.
This
is
due
to
dropping
service
for
a
week
there
due
to
the
robinson
closure
and
then
in
june
of
2019,
we
saw
a
large
increase,
and
this
was
mainly
due
to
the
the
beta
conference
that
was
going
on
downtown.
We
had.
We
saw
a
huge
increase
of
ridership
with
the
conference
that
was
downtown.
F
So,
like
I
mentioned
earlier,
you
can
see.
There's
a
decrease
this
fiscal
year
when
compared
to
last
fiscal
year,
but
we
have
yet
to
have
two
months
where
they
are
really
comparable.
F
Moving
on
to
weekday
daily
average
comparison,
you'll
you'll
see
in
the
following
graphs
that
this
trend
is
pretty
reflective
throughout
all
the
different
types
of
ridership
graphs
that
we
have,
and
here
you
can
see
that
the
first
three
months
of
2020
when
compared
to
2019
we've
seen
a
57
decrease
again
2019.
We
were
riding
the
wave
of
our
grand
opening
when
comparing
the
last
four
months
of
fiscal
year,
we'll
notice
that
2020
is
drastically
down,
and
this
is
of
course,
due
to
the
global
pandemic
that
we
are
still
currently
experiencing.
F
The
weekend
ridership
numbers
show
a
similar
story.
However,
february
of
2020,
we
see
a
35
increase
on
your
slide
here.
That
is
a
a
typo.
So
in
february
we
do
have
an
up
an
increase
of
35
percent
over
the
previous
year,
and
this
was
anticipated
that
we
would
see
continued
growth
over
the
following
months,
but
then
coronavirus
hit,
and
so
this
next
graph
is
our
weekend
daily
average
numbers.
These
numbers
reflect
the
similar
info
that
we've
seen
in
in
the
previous
slides.
F
And
this
is
our
weekly
total
comparison,
so
this
graph
shows
the
cumulative
ridership
totals
for
our
system.
2019
was
a
great
year
for
us
and
we
saw
an
average
monthly
ridership
of
a
little
over
30
000
and
we
were
anticipating
that
growth
into
2020
and
then
coronavirus
hit.
So
this
is
a
slide
that
shows
our
corona
or
cova
19
weekly
ridership.
F
A
couple
of
milestone
dates
here
is
so
march.
11Th
was
when
the
thunder
game
was
scheduled
to
happen
and
abruptly
stopped
right,
and
so
that's,
I
think,
that's
really.
When
oklahoma
city
took
notice
of
the
coronavirus
and
and
what
was
going
on
march.
16Th
was
when
the
mayor
issued
his
emergency
proclamation
and
then
you
can
see
the
pretty
drastic
decline
there
until
we
get
more
into
april.
F
So
throughout
all
of
coronavirus,
we've
had
79
days
of
reduced
service,
and
I
mentioned
earlier
you
know
march
19th
was
when
our
service
ended
at
10
pm
april
13th.
We
pulled
that
back
to
7
pm.
However,
on
june
5th,
as
when
we
returned
to
normal
service
hours
and
if
you'll
notice
kind
of
as
we
start
getting
closer
to
our
current
date,
you
can
see
that
the
the
ridership
is
week
over
week,
we're
seeing
that
increase,
and
this
this
past
saturday
we
saw
over
900
riders
ride
the
streetcar.
F
H
F
We
don't
have
one
available,
but
we
can.
We
can
certainly
get
that
together
for
sure
that
would
that
would
be.
K
Helpful,
so
you
all
know,
I'm
a
big
advocate
of
the
streetcar
have
always
been
a
big
advocate
same
with
buses.
K
What
it
seems
like
there's
been
a
more
precipitous
drop
by
about
30
percent
in
streetcar
ridership
versus
versus
bus.
That's
just
something!
That's
that's
on
my
mind
and.
K
Ridership
of
the
streetcar,
that
drop,
I
mean
this
precipitous
drop
versus
a
drop
in
the
bus
system,
but
by
about
you
know
about
44,
and
I'm
just
wondering
do
we
have
any
sense
of
who
our
riders
are?
Who
are
you
know,
sticking
with
the
bus
who
seems
like
there's
more
people
who
might
need
that
than
need
the
streetcar
right
now.
K
L
I
think
I
think
that
I
think
the
best
you
know
the
best
indicator
we
have
of
that
is
referring
back
to
our
last
customer
service
survey,
and
you
know
we
have
a
pretty
good,
pretty
good
data
set
there.
That
really,
I
think,
tells
the
story.
It
tells
the
story
that
the
streetcar
is
primarily
used
by
people
that
work
downtown
visitors
to
downtown
the
the
the
degree
of
transit
dependency
between
streetcar
and
bus.
L
You
know
the
the
riders
that
use
streetcar
versus
bus
is,
I
mean
it's,
it's
vastly
different,
so
we
have
a
whole
lot.
I
mean
a
large
amount
of
our
customers
on
the
bus
side.
Transit
dependent,
most
of
our
customers
on
the
streetcar
side
are
not.
I
mean,
I
think,
that's
the
one
of
the
largest
determining
factors
on
you
know
why
you
see
different
ridership
trends,
so
in
my
mind,
if
we
have.
L
More
more
customers
on
the
street
car
system
that
have
other
choices
for
transportation
or
they
say,
are
only
downtown
for
working
or
entertainment.
Well,
then,
with
the
slowdown
and
activity
downtown
and
a
lot
of
employers
not
even
having
their
their
employees
come
to
the
office,
we
don't
have
that
base
ridership.
We
don't
have
those
individuals
to
generate
those
trips
on
the
bus
side,
though,
and
I
think
it
just
speaks
to
the
need
for
our
services
on
the
bus
side.
L
L
The
data
that
you
just
saw
was
through
the
end
of
20.,
but
you
know
I
can
tell
you
even
through
july
here,
the
first
month
of
this
fiscal
year.
You
know
our
ridership
on
the
bus
side
is
on
some
days.
L
K
No
need
to
apologize
at
all.
That's
exactly
the
context
I
was
requesting.
Thank
you
and
I
think
it'll
be
helpful
to
hear
what
the
spokees
ridership
numbers
were
during
the
same
period.
In
the
way
we
just
saw
right
here
with
streetcar
and
with
with
the
bus,
and
I
guess
you
know
the
reason
why
I'm
asking
these
questions
is.
K
But
just
anecdotally,
I
saw
people
using
our
spokey's
bike
share
program
and
I
saw
yeah
a
reduction
in
bus
services,
but
I
didn't
see
it
as
steeply,
as
I
saw
with
the
streetcar,
and
then
the
data
is
kind
of
bearing
this
out.
But
I
don't
really
like
speaking
anecdotally
when
it
comes
to
the
spokies.
K
Of
know,
you
know
I
like
the
data,
just
as
you
all
do-
and
I
guess
you
know
this
is
kind
of
still
part
of
my
concern
about
the
spooky's
loss
from
this
year's
fiscal
budget
is,
I
think,
as
the
country
has,
and
people
don't
have
to
agree
with
me
on
this.
But
this
is
just
my
assessment
of
what
I'm
seeing
around
the
country
right
now,
but
because
of
the
pandemic,
we're
seeing
this
shift
from,
for
instance,
indoor
dining
and
we're
seeing
in
our
cities
follow
this
this
trend,
where
how
can
we
use
sidewalks?
K
How
can
we
use
parking
spaces
street
space
for
outdoor
dining
so
that
we're
better
assisting
our
you
know
our
restaurant
industry
to
be
able
to
remain
open,
have
folk
with
mass
but
be
outside,
where
the
virus
spreads
less
likely
and
then
you're
able
to
better
do
those
social
distancing
measures
outside
in
a
way
that
one
cannot
endorse,
and
I
think
with
that
is
becoming
a
a
kind
of
realization
that
you
know
having
sidewalks
in
one's
neighborhood
is
important
for
one's
physical
and
mental
health.
K
I
think
a
lot
of
people
are,
you
know
getting
out
of
their
homes
right
now,
where
they've
been
sheltering
in
place,
where
the
home
space
environment
has
shifted
to
a
workspace
environment.
So
we
got
to
get
out
of
that
and
get
outdoors,
I
think,
bike
infrastructure
and
and
whether
it's
the
whether
it's
bike
lanes
or
whether
it's
a
bike
share
program.
I
think
that
also
is
part
of
this
moment
where
people
you
know
just
have
a
desire
to
be
outside
both
for
their
physical
and
mental
health.
So
I.
K
Just
trying
to
think
through
this
moment
and
how
we
as
a
transit
provider,
can
can
meet
this
moment
and
speak
to
this
moment.
So
that's
why
I've
had
that
concern
about
the
loss
of
smokies.
L
If
I,
if
I
can
make
one
make
another
comment
on
the
streetcar,
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
we've
we've
really
tried
to
do
is
staff
and
make
recommendations
to
trustees.
With
regards
to
streetcar
service
is
I
mean
knowing
our
customer
base
is
different?
L
Knowing
there's
you
know
limited
activity
downtown,
but
also,
knowing
you
know
the
importance
of
being
able
to
demonstrate
resiliency
as
a
transit
system
resiliency,
you
know
for
all
major
modes
and
of
course
streetcar
is
one
of
those
major
modes
and
looking
to
the
future,
you
know
very
optimistic
about
the
future.
The
fact
that
we
have
you
know
the
convention
center
coming
online
soon
looking
forward.
Hopefully
you
know
to
you
know
the
the
upcoming
basketball
season,
whatever
shape
and
form
that
might
take.
L
You
know
we
we
as
staff-
and
I
know,
we've
shared
this
with
trustees.
You
know
we
feel
very
committed
to
demonstrating
that
resiliency
so
that
people
know
they
can
people
customers,
individuals
from
out
of
town
that
are
looking
to
potentially
book
conventions.
L
They
know
that
that
transit
system
that
street
car
system
that
downtown
circulator
is
going
to
be
there
to
to
operate,
and
it's
not
you
know
unpredictable.
So
we've
really
tried
to
guard
against.
You
know
any
any
perception
that
you
know
the
service
isn't
resilient
or
reliable,
so
we've
really
been
again
trying
to
push
to
keep
as
much
service
as
we
can
on
the
street
to
to
demonstrate
that
resiliency.
L
The
other
thing
I
was
gonna
going
to
mention
is
I
I
do
have
the
spokies
ridership,
at
least
through
may
that
I
can
share
with
you.
This
was
included
in
the
last
board
report
and
I
can
I
can
share
that
with
you
right
now.
If
you'd
like.
K
L
Yeah,
so
this
is
and
again
I
just
you
know
trying
to
answer
your
question
as
quickly
as
possible.
We
can
certainly
get
the
june
numbers,
but
I
mean
we
did
see.
You
know
an
increase
in
may
of
spokee's
ridership
you're,
looking
at
roughly
probably
1200
trips
in
may,
but
you
know
we
see
that
every
year,
just
with
the
change
of
weather
I
mean
I
mean
you
can
see
it.
You
know
trended
up
in
18
during
that
time
period
trends
up
trended
up
a
little
bit
during
2019
the
other.
L
L
But
I
guess
for
a
brief
time
there,
in
the
may
june
time
period,
spokies
may
have
been
the
the
only
you
know,
option
for
for
that
type
of
micro
mobility
with
the
scooters
being
off
the
street,
and
I
know
that
is
really
the
our
our
biggest
competitor
and
probably
the
single
most
re
single
biggest
reason.
You
see
this
decline
in
ridership
in
2019
was
the
scooters.
K
So
if
I'm
reading
this
sentence
correct,
I
it
turns
out
that
my
anecdotal
interpretation
is
pretty
in
line
with
staff
where
it
says
that
attributes
the
increase
to
the
demand
for
alternative
transfer
transportation
that
provides
for
social
distancing
and
the
need
for
exercise
while
area
gems
remain
closed.
Like
yeah,
I
think
there
is
a
there's,
a
shift
that
is
happening
right
now
and
that's
why
I
was
gravely
concerned,
as
I've
said
previously,
about
the
loss
of
spokies.
At
this
moment,.
L
And
again,
you
know
we,
you
know
we
we
too
we're
reluctant,
as
you
know,
to
take
any
service
off
the
street,
but
again
we
approached
it
as
a
as
an
interruption,
a
short-term
suspension,
as
mentioned
last
time,
and
I
believe
we
even
shared
some
photos-
I
mean
we
have
all
of
the
assets.
They're
secured
they're,
ready
to
be
deployed
when
budget
conditions
you
know
improve.
L
H
L
N
N
N
N
N
Ac
units
had
since
been
installed
and
have
been
were
in
a
testing
mode
for
the
ac
units,
northeast
staircase
roofing
system
by
the
ballards
they'll,
be
a
glass
wall
or
storefront
no
doors,
everything's
sloped,
so
that
the
rain
will
stay
inside
the
garage
and
not
in
the
stairwells
image
of
the
roofing
system.
N
For
the
southwest
staircase,
with
the
elevators,
of
course,
inside
one
of
the
elevator
cabs,
yes,
they're
still
being
built,
you
can
see
the
opaque
glass
behind
on
the
rear
wall,
an
image
of
some
of
the
colored
glass
from
the
elevator
shaft
and
then
the
effect
we
were
looking
forward
to
through
the
opaque
elevator
glass.
I
will
note
that
that
image
was
taken
on
a
cloudy
day.
So
the
effect
is
not
as
cool
as
possible
and
then
our
vertical
cables,
all
1300
plus
of
them.
N
You
can
see
the
last
few
still
need
to
be
installed
from
at
fro
at
the
far
end,
far
east
side
of
the
garage.
Yesterday
they
were
complete
when
I
was
on
site
and
that's
my
presentation.
Any
questions.
H
H
L
L
J
A
Good
morning,
everyone
it's
been
a
while,
since
we've
seen
each
other.
So
even
though
it's
virtually
welcome
and
it's
good
to
see
everyone,
I
want
to
give
you
a
brief
overview
of
how
we
ended
up
in
2020..
A
A
Obviously
the
largest
decrease
that
we
saw
as
a
result
of
coven
came
with
our
daily
meal
sites.
That
was
because
they
closed
the
conger
emile
sites
due
to
coven
what
we
did
in
to
make
sure
that
the
seniors
were
still
receiving
their
nutrition
was
to
partner
with
the
oklahoma,
county,
senior
nutrition
and
community
action
agency
to
deliver
a
week's
worth
of
flash
frozen
meals
to
those
seniors
that
we
would
normally
transport
back
and
forth
daily
to
get
their
noon
meal.
A
So
by
the
end
of
april,
we've
done
over
3000
meals,
I'm
waiting
on
the
numbers
for
me
and
jeans,
we'll
have
those
to
you
soon.
The
least
decline
we
saw
was
in
medical
trips.
That's
a
an
urgent
need.
There
are
some.
There
was
a
small
decline
about.
20
percent
of
the
decline
was
in
medical
and
that's
because
of
the
virtual
medicine,
but
we
are
still
seeing
significant
usage
of
our
dialysis
routes
and
the
routes
that
run
to
the
cancer
treatment
centers.
A
A
A
We
found
out
that
about
84
percent
use
our
service
at
least
three
times
a
month,
and
they
felt
that
it
over
almost
90
percent,
say
they
get
out
of
the
house
more
because
they
can
use
embark,
senior
transportation
services
and
across
the
board.
100
of
our
respondents
said
embark.
Senior
transportation
is
the
reason
that
they
are
able
to
remain
in
home
and
not
have
to
go
to
an
assisted
living
center,
so
that
I
think
that
in
and
of
itself,
that
single
statement
captures
pretty
much
everything
that
we
do.
As
you
can
see
from.
A
A
One
of
the
big
things
that
we
do
to
get
the
word
out
about
our
services
is
outreach.
Obviously
that's
a
very
difficult
thing
for
us
to
do.
In
a
social
distancing,
world
and
a
pandemic,
we
did
have
some
events
planned
in
the
spring.
The
informed
senior
seminar,
disability
awareness,
day
senior
day
at
the
state
capitol.
All
these
events
were
canceled
and
held
virtually
one
of
the
things
that
we
really
need.
A
The
trustees
and
the
general
public's
help
with
is
outreach
reaching
these
seniors
to
make
sure
that
they
know
these
services
are
available
to
them
and
we
are
still
operating
during
the
code.
So
one
of
the
things
that
we've
worked
with
marketing
is
august,
we
will
be
doing
a
huge
social
media.
Push
on
the
embark
social
media
accounts
directed
targeted
at
seniors,
and
I
really
encourage
those
of
you
that
follow
our
account.
If
you
would
share
those
on
your
social
media
posts.
That
would
help
us
tremendously.
A
A
A
We've
actually
saw
about
a
one
percent
drop
due
to
covet
in
the
demand,
and
we
just
finished
up
the
application
process
for
the
current
fiscal
year,
and
this
program
is
going
to
continue.
Probably
the
single
most
coveted
impact
we
saw
was
with
our
embark
well
program
as
as
you'll
recall,
we
piloted
this
in
july
of
2019
and
it
was
very
popular.
It's
serving
six
senior
mobility,
senior
wellness
centers
across
the
city,
obviously
many
of
those
closed
during
the
pandemic
and
are
only
partially
reopened.
At
this
point
we
did
start
the
embark
well
service.
A
It
did
not
run
in
march
april
or
may
at
all.
We
did
start
back
up
june
1st,
as
you
can
see,
we've
only
done.
22
rides:
that's
about
doubled
what
we
saw
about
double
in
july
this
year,
so
it
is
picking
back
up
slowly
when
we're
staying
in
touch
with
the
agencies
and
the
destination
locations,
to
make
sure
that
we
can
do
that.
A
So
our
climb
ride
program.
This
is
the
arnold
transportation
innovation
grant
and
we
have
moved
this
program
to
a
full
launch
phase
at
this
point
and
I'm
really
excited
to
let
the
trustees
know
that
we
celebrated
our
first
successful
family
reunification
in
this
program
in
july
of
2020.
So
we
have
our
first
official
program
graduate
that
completed
the
entire
climb
road
ride
program
and
has
successfully
reunified
their
family
through
the
foster
care
system.
A
Finally,
we
have
transportation
in
canadian
county.
As
you
know,
we
we
launched
this
in
january
of
2020.
We
had
a
whopping
two
months
of
service
before
kovid
hit
us
obviously
dropped
to
nearly
zero
we've
seen
each
month
since
we've,
since
the
this
we've
slowly
reopened.
We're
seeing
ridership
in
canadian
county
is
about
doubling
as
a
reminder
right
now
in
canadian
county,
the
only
type
of
transportation
that
we
have
is
for
seniors
for
medical
appointments.
K
K
A
I
appreciate
that
we
really
do
we.
We
truly
do-
and
I
appreciate
your
support
and
the
fact
that
you
are
so
active
in
in
in
referring
people
to
us.
I
I've
actually
had
two
really
positive
conversations
for
people
from
citizens
that
you've
sent
to
me
in
the
last
month
that
I
think
that
we're
actually
going
to
be
able
to
make
some
adjustments
and
some
services
to
actually
meet
the
need
that
they
were
calling
about.
So
that's
very
exciting.
For
me,.
K
I
appreciate
that
I
I
it's
just
y'all.
Don't
need
me
to
tell
you
how
hard
this
moment
is,
and
it's
just
so
encouraging,
knowing
that
other
folk
are
out
there
doing
all
the
work
you're
doing
the
request
is-
and
this
might
be
a
request
for
you,
marilyn
and
maybe
jason
michael
and
our
public
information
office,
but
I
would
love
to
to
co-host
with
you
all
this
month,
some
sort
of
virtual.
A
K
Yeah,
that's
wonderful!
I
know
I've
been
putting
that
bug
in
you.
All's
here
for
a
while.
It's
this
time
hearing
you
describe
everything
though
it
just.
It
makes
way
sense
for
me
to
just
sit
back
and
give
you
that
platform
to
describe
the
work
and
so
I'll.
Let
you
all
think
through
it,
but
I'd
love
to
get
that
underway.
A
H
Any
other
items
many
of
the
trustees.
I'm
sorry,
I
think,
if
we
were
meeting
in
person,
these
meetings
would
be
a
little
shorter.
I
know
the
technology
to
get
all
this
on
the
screen
and
do
sure
slows
things
down.
So
I
kind
of
apologize
for
almost
a
two-hour
meeting,
but
we
got
through
a
lot
of
information,
so
jason
needs
to
receive
the
reports
chris.
H
L
Just
a
yeah,
a
quick
comment
on
to
your
point,
mr
chairman
yeah:
this
is
an
extended
meeting,
so
we're
happy
to
work
with
the
trust
in
making
sure
if
needed.
We
short,
we
shorten
these
or
limit
the
number
of
presentations
and
then,
secondly,
just
a
thanks
to
lisa,
generally
lisa
hubbell,
our
trust,
specialist
and
iris
newman.
Our
administrative
coordinator
have
to
really
manage
this
meeting.
L
It
takes
both
of
them
and
lisa
is
on
her
own
today
so
anyway,
just
to
thanks
thanks
to
her
and
I'm
glad
we
were
able
to
get
through
what
we
got
through.
