Agenda Text
The Board is requested to approve the Final Recommended FY25 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 County Board of Commissioners and the GoTriangle Board of Trustees.
The Durham County Board of Commissioners received an informational presentation at the Work Session held on February 5th. At the Staff Working Group (SWG) meeting held on March 20th, the final FY25 Work Program was recommended for approval by a vote of 4-0. The recommended Work Program and public comments received on the draft Work Program are attached for reference.
