SECTION 5: FIVE-YEAR FINANCIAL PLAN <br />FINAL REPORT q6 <br />Under OPT's current practice of charging on a per mile and per hour basis for most <br />contracts, and on a per mile basis only for agencies that supply their own drivers, the <br />appropriate rates are the above adjusted rates multiplied by the fixed-cost factor, <br />The recommended billing rates are: <br />Per hour: $22.25 <br />Per mile: $ 0.41 <br />These rates are slightly below the current rate charged per mile of $0.45, but higher <br />than the per hour rate of $19.00. <br />These rates will allow OPT to cover the full cost of its services including establishing <br />an operating reserve and covering the local share of vehicle costs, while giving the <br />agencies credit for DOT funding. Note further that these rates are based upon the <br />existing level of service. Should OPT implement the east/west route and take over <br />the E-Z Rider service, these costs will need to be adjusted. <br />5.2.2.
