He said there are three grant programs: bus and bus <br /> 15 facilities (5339); a low emission vehicle program; and a new bus program with funds, and the <br /> 16 department is working with Brennan Bouma, Sustainability Coordinator, on this. He said <br /> 17 Brennan Bouma has applied for a grant for a high charge electric station. <br /> 18 Commissioner McKee said this might be a good time to look into a reverse route. <br /> 19 Theo Letman said staff is looking into exciting options for vehicles, and are open to <br /> 20 different types. <br /> 21 Commissioner Price said the improvements are wonderful, but one thing people are <br /> 22 concerned with is the various types of partners on the routes. She said it is very confusing. <br /> 23 Theo Letman said staff meets regularly with local jurisdictions, and discuss this concern <br /> 24 frequently. He said there are a lot of jurisdictional boundaries that are federally mandated, and <br /> 25 others that do not make sense. <br /> 26 Travis Myren resumed the presentation: <br /> 27 <br /> Community Services <br /> Planning and Inspections—page 350 <br /> •7otal expenditure budget-$3,215,117 <br /> .-erpendwromcroe:eotar ota <br /> Reenup DeC2d e0f5],932 nuet0 Emelan GOMr01RMenyp FleFWetioe <br /> Inepenlons Revenue Erosion Control Revenue <br /> 9C%[Pemveryln FY]420 55%[MNnvreryLrfY1420 <br /> `�ae <br /> �s ORANGE <br /> A¢atOLrfl COUNTY <br /> 28nnn� r �� <br />
