Agenda Text
The Board is requested to approve the Final Recommended FY26 Durham Annual Transit Work Program (“Work Program”).
As part of the appropriations process for the Durham County Transit Plan, an annual Work Program is developed and includes a budget for the upcoming fiscal year. The 2023 Transit Governance Interlocal Agreement (“ILA”) determines the process by which the annual budget is developed and approved. Under the guidance of the ILA, the Work Program requires approval by the Durham Board of County Commissioners (“BOCC”) and the GoTriangle Board of Trustees.
The BOCC received an informational presentation at the Work Session held on February 3rd. At the Staff Working Group (“SWG”) meeting held on April 14, 2025, the FY26 Work Program was recommended for approval by a vote of 4-0. The final recommended Work Program and the public engagement report are attached for reference.
