The City entered into an agreement with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) to
provide transportation services for Santa Ana seniors. The current term of the agreement is for
five years and expires on June 30, 2016. The agreement is subject to an extension for another
five -year period, through June 30, 2021, at the discretion of OCTA.
On March 15, 2016 the City Council approved an agreement amendment with OCTA to modify
the existing scope. On May 3, 2016, City Council approved the OCTA Service Plan, in the format
developed by OCTA, in order for OCTA to draft an agreement amendment that will be presented
to the OCTA Board for approval. The original intent was to obtain City Council approval of the
agreement amendment prior to June 30, 2016 after the approval by the OCTA Board, however,
due to processes at the County the agreement has not been finalized.
On May, 16, 2016, OCTA notified the City that the pending agreement amendment providing a 5-
year extension and revised Service Plan will not be provided to City Council before June 30,
2016, as originally planned. As a result of the delay, the City will not have an agreement in place
to allow the Senior Mobility Program to operate as specified in the new Service Plan after June
30, 2016 and the program will have to continue operations under the limited scope currently in
place.
