 Joint Study Framework for Consideration of Consolidated Transit Services BACKGROUND

In 2019, Everett’s City Council initiated the evaluation of transit services provided by Everett Transit.

 Over the course of 2019-2021, the City of Everett engaged in a series of ReThink Transit workshops to study and consider three options for future provision of transit service in the City: Status Quo (no change), Growth, and Growth Through Consolidation.  At their June 9, 2021 meeting, the Everett City Council directed Everett City staff to develop and bring

back for Council’s consideration a proposal outlining a City of Everett and Community Transit joint study

framework to further develop the Growth Through Consolidation option. City officials then reached out to Community Transit for mutual discussion on how to design this collaborative study process. The objective of the joint study framework is to evaluate and define a mutually agreeable integration plan for Everett to  join the PTBA at a sufficient level of detail to inform decision making by the Everett City Council.

STATUS

 Leadership from Community Transit and the City of Everett have worked collaboratively to develop a mutually agreed upon framework by which to conduct this comprehensive study. The plan principles are outlined in the attached proposed

Agreement and Joint Study Framework for Consideration of Consolidated Transit Services

. The Everett City Council is scheduled to review and take action on the Agreement and Joint Study Framework at their December 1, 2021 regular meeting. The Community Transit Executive Committee reviewed this item at their November 18, 2021 regular meeting and recommended placement on the action agenda for Board approval at the December 2, 2021

Board of Directors’

 meeting.

BUDGET IMPACT

The cost for independent facilitation of this initiative will be equally shared by both parties and is estimated to be $ 96,800. Each party will separately bear the costs and expenses for their respective

staff’s s

alaries and any consulting fees (other than facilitation) arising from the Agreement. Funds for Comm

unity Transit’s expenses in this work

are included in the 2022 proposed budget.

RECOMMENDATION

That the Board of Directors adopt the agreement between Community Transit and the City of Everett regarding consideration of consolidated transit services as outlined in Joint Study Framework for Consideration of Consolidated Transit Services.
