The agreement is subject to an extension for another <br />five -year period, through June 30, 2021, at the discretion of OCTA. <br />On March 15, 2016 the City Council approved an agreement amendment with OCTA to modify <br />the existing scope. On May 3, 2016, City Council approved the OCTA Service Plan, in the format <br />developed by OCTA, in order for OCTA to draft an agreement amendment that will be presented <br />to the OCTA Board for approval. The original intent was to obtain City Council approval of the <br />agreement amendment prior to June 30, 2016 after the approval by the OCTA Board, however, <br />due to processes at the County the agreement has not been finalized. <br />On May, 16, 2016, OCTA notified the City that the pending agreement amendment providing a 5- <br />year extension and revised Service Plan will not be provided to City Council before June 30, <br />2016, as originally planned. As a result of the delay, the City will not have an agreement in place <br />to allow the Senior Mobility Program to operate as specified in the new Service Plan after June <br />30, 2016 and the program will have to continue operations under the limited scope currently in <br />place. <br />STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT <br />Approval of this item allows the City to meet Goal #5 - Community Health, Livability, Engagement <br />& Sustainability, Objective #4 (Support neighborhood vitality and livability), Strategy B - Improve <br />neighborhood quality by locating or providing access to complementary services and public <br />19D -1 <br />
