68 <br /> 1 Chair Price asked why the consultant is needed. <br /> 2 Nish Trivedi said the FTA will provide the training. He said that they will deal directly <br /> 3 with the FTA. <br /> 4 Chair Price asked if they have to pay $75,000 for the training. <br /> 5 Nish Trivedi said that it is to learn the process of the differences in the designations. <br /> 6 Commissioner Richards said it looks like a lot of positions were not recommended in <br /> 7 the budget and asked why. <br /> 8 Bonnie Hammersley said it is because they are evaluating the transportation services <br /> 9 to determine the need. She said they also have the motor pool, and they are evaluating that to <br /> 10 decide if they continue to provide that as a county or provide it with a partner. She said that <br /> 11 NCDOT is trying to get out of business of reporting. She said the advantage is they will get the <br /> 12 revenue quicker, but they will have to do all of the reporting and that is very extensive. She said <br /> 13 they have a reduction in revenue of half a million and they need to get grant money so local <br /> 14 money does not go to transportation. She said if they can pay $75,000 and end up getting <br /> 15 $500,000 in revenue, it is a good return on investment. <br /> 16 Commissioner Richards said they can review the need for the positions at a later date. <br /> 17 Commissioner McKee asked where direct recipients report to. <br /> 18 Bonnie Hammersley said the FTA and what happens now is NCDOT receives the <br /> 19 reports and then sends it to the FTA. She said it is okay for the county to cut out the middleman, <br /> 20 but they need to learn how to do the reporting. <br /> 21 Chair Price asked if the mobility on demand overtime is paying at time and a half for <br /> 22 drivers. She asked why they are doing that rather than paying them standard hours. <br /> 23 Travis Myren said the reason for overtime is for unexpected circumstances such as a <br /> 24 route running long. He said they work a regular shift, but something happens, and they cannot <br /> 25 end at the scheduled time. <br /> 26 Bonnie Hammersley said this is overtime for lack of drivers. <br /> 27 Nish Trivedi said some drivers are receiving overtime for covering other routes. <br /> 28 <br /> 29 Slide #95 <br /> Community Services <br /> * Orange County Transportation Services — page 281 <br /> Gad 9t C&%NdtJ160Pd by FrM3& <br /> 14495 ————————————————————————————-- <br /> 60% FJtwd 6F}d:#5 <br /> 9% JustrtericW:#4 <br /> 2c% <br /> CM --------",r`e Pra�eQ' <br /> Jut hig.
