CORRESPONDENCE TO THE BOARD AND PUBLIC COMMENTS

Correspondence to the Board There was an email from Jordan Wagner, Fred Wurtzel, and Dan Opsommer. A letter was received from Frank Walsh.

Public Comments Fred Wurtzel wanted to talk about the Meridian Redi-Ride. Mr. Wurtzel was glad to hear CATA was helping the low income riders. He wants the best rides possible and knows there are some loose ends that need to be addressed. Mr. Wurtzel thanked CATA for helping.

Diane Engle wanted to also talk about Meridian Redi-Ride. Ms. Engle noted this is a Township matter and would like the Meridian Township representative to report back some of the concerns. The expanded hours don't fully integrate with the current buses to downtown. Ms. Engle was concerned that now students would not get discounted fares like other locations and the students are not the problem. Ms. Engle would like to see the stops more standard within a certain range within township boundaries.

Phil Deschane, Meridian Township Trustee and board representative of their transportation commisSion, passed out a letter from Meridian Township. Mr. Deschane noted the limitation of the Redi-Ride's geographic and service times and had asked CATA for five (5) more service stops and within one month, the service was available. Mr. Deschane said the Township Board voted to expand service times and increase the fare and knows some have expressed concerns on this increase. Mr. Deschane noted the fare had stayed the same since 2000. Meridian Cares is going to help riders who cannot afford the increase. Meridian Township took this information to the community and explained the program available to them and they were very excited.

Page 1 of 9 CATA Board of Directors Meeting - 09/19/2018 ACTION ITEM V A

Julie Brixie, a former Board member, thanked CATA for her time serving on the Board. Ms. Brixie noted the Meridian Redi-Ride expansion as a positive step. Ms. Brixie remembered in 2000 how popular the Redi-Ride service was and continues to grow. Ms. Brixie looks forward to continued growth and positive changes.

Public Hearing

At 4: 18 p.m., Chair Triplett opened the public hearing regarding CATA's proposed Fiscal Year 2018-19 Budget and proposed 2018 Property Tax Levy. Notice of this hearing was published in the Lansing City Pulse on July 18, 2018; in the Lansing State Journal on July 15, 2018; at CATA's Administrative Building, downtown CTC, Capital Area Multimodal Gateway and on its website on July 11, 2018.

Chair Triplett asked if staff had received any comments from the public regarding the proposed Fiscal Year 2018-2019 Budget and proposed 2018 Property Tax Levy. He then recognized Chief Executive Officer, Bradley T. Funkhouser, who reported that no comments were received from the public. Chair Triplett invited members of the public who wished to make a comment to be recognized.

Mr. Funkhouser noted that there were multiple ways of communicating the Meridian Redi Ride fare increase which included some of the following: eight (8) public meetings, publications in the local newspapers, email invitations to the disabled and visually impaired community, facebook, etc., to discuss Meridian Redi-Ride fare increase. Of the one-hundred twelve that attended, fifty-three (53) responded with the majority in favor of the increases. The Meridian Cares program will help offset the fare increase for those who qualify.

Chair Triplett complimented Mr. Funkhouser on being able to keep the buses running and on time despite the tragedy of losing an employee and the recent fatal accident.

Dusty Fancher, Policy Committee Chair, gave an update on their meeting. Ms. Fancher stated that the Committee has met to discuss both adding a voting seat on the Board and suspending the Executive Director's Evaluation until next year.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S REPORT

DISCUSSION: Mr. Funkhouser thanked both the Staff and Board members for their hard work. Mr. Funkhouser noted that due to the passing of Robert Wolf, Maintenance Supervisor, Bill Frarey and Dan Hodges were covering Mr. Wolf's shift. Mr. Funkhouser also noted that there was a fundraiser for Mr. Wolf's family and we have been keeping in touch with them.

Mr. Funkhouser addressed the fatal accident of two brothers which happened last Friday. Our CATA driver responded quickly and helped at the scene with a fire extinguisher. Mr. Funkhouser expressed his sincere condolences to the family.

An update on the Triennial findings was given by Mr. Funkhouser. CATA asked the FTA for an extension on three (3) of the findings due to the extensive work needed. The rest of the findings are on track to be completed on time in September.

Mr. Funkhouser emphasized that our top priority is getting buses on the streets for our service increases. We have used buses coming from Columbus that are getting re-stripped and serviced now. These buses are newer than some we currently use.

Mr. Funkhouser shared a great success story within CATA. David Shelton, CATA utilities worker who has been here ten (10) years, was promoted to the Human Relations (HR) department. He received his degree in HR and accepted the HR Administrator position.

Doug Lecato referenced in the minutes about other transit companies having large findings and if there was any more discussion with other authorities. Mr. Funkhouser said he hopes to discuss this subject at next week's Michigan Public Transit Association Annual Conference.

equipment and related costs, on terms and conditions as the Board Chair and Chief Executive Officer deem necessary.

MOTION: A motion was made to approve the Meridian Township Request for Redi-Ride Service Expansion and Fare Increase by Dusty Fancher and supported by Shanna Draheim.

DISCUSSION:

Mr. Funkhouser noted there were many public meetings to discuss the Meridian Redi-Ride service. This is a contractual agreement with Meridian Township. Mr. Funkhouser was pleased with this decision and noted that many people were involved in this process which included those who use the service as well. Three (3) hours per day will be added to the routes. The cost will increase from discounted fare for seniors and people with disabilities. Regular fare and student fare become $2.50. Students will not benefit from a student fare unless their household qualifies. Spec-Tran will still be available. We will continue to look for solutions.

Derek Melot wanted to know the impact on CATA's contribution to this service. Mr. Funkhouser stated that due to the economic impact on some riders, CATA has committed to help which will increase our costs. Mr. Funkhouser will report back the numbers as they become available.

Mr. Funkhouser noted it was a five (5) year millage and yes it has been voted on. We must levy the tax. Mr. Grebner suggested that we cut back on our services we don't need and prepare for the future and be more cost conscious.

Page 6 of 9 CATA Board of Directors Meeting - 09/19/2018 ACTION ITEM V A

Mr. Funkhouser noted that the vision of the Strategic Planning Committee, chaired by Dion'trae Hayes, will be meeting and going out to the public.

MOTION: A motion was made by Pete Kuhnmuench and supported by Doug Lecato to approve the Fiscal Year 2018-2019 Budget.

DISCUSSION: Chair Triplett opened the floor for discussion on the Fiscal Year 2018-2019 Budget. Discussion ensued on line items. Brad Funkhouser noted the Budget packet's presentation was completely different and categories were assigned to departments. The budget had many items cut including Christmas parties and cards. Doug Lecato thanked Mr. Funkhouser and Staff for the transparency. Chair Triplett also stated his appreciation for the Staff and the Authority and looking forward to the future of CATA. This was the first budget put together with the new CEO and Chair Triplett was very pleased. VOTE: The motion carried unanimously.

MOTION: A motion was made by Dusty Fancher and supported by Shanna Draheim to approve the Downtown Lansing Circulator Free Fare Proposal.

DISCUSSION: Chair Triplett asked Brad Funkhouser to discuss the Downtown Lansing Circulator Free Fare Proposal. Mr. Funkhouser stated this is the latest addition from January's Board Retreat. This proposal is a one year pilot program and launches in two weeks. CATA has hired more operators to handle the new service routes. The service time is from 10 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. with 15 minute departure intervals. Mr. Funkhouser noted that he and many others will be riding the trolley on the first day such as the Mayor of Lansing, and leaders from the Chamber of Commerce, LEAP, and Old Town. Donna Rose would like to see it only go through December 31, 2018 for free and start charging in January 2019. Ms. Rose has concerns on the affect it will have on the local vendors. Ms. Rose made a motion to only go through December 31, 2018 and charge a fare starting in January 2019. With no one supporting, the motion failed. Discussion ensued on the feasibility, time commitment, possible partners, ridership, the effects on local vendors, expanding the route and service times. Mr. Funkhouser addressed the questions and will keep the Board informed. Many Board members expressed taking a chance was a good idea and evaluating this route's progress regularly. Chair Triplett noted the importance of taking a risk. Mr. Triplett works downtown and looks forward to trying this service.

VOTE: The vote passed with 8 votes in favor and 1 vote against. Derek Melot voted against.

MOTION: A motion was made by Pete Kuhnmuench and supported by Derek Melot to approve the Contract for Purchase of Small Bus. DISCUSSION: Chair Triplett asked Mr. Funkhouser to inform the Board on the Contract for Purchase of Small Bus. Mr. Funkhouser reminded the Board that we had already passed this item, but there was a protest and had to go back to the vendors and clarify their proposals. The recommendation was changed from Hoesktra to Mobility Transportation for the purchase of the small buses. The timeline is 100 days and there is a penalty for each day they are not here. Pete Kuhnmuench asked who our legal counsel was for this and Mr. Funkhouser stated it was Dan Chandler and Miller Johnson. VOTE: The motion carried unanimously.

OLD BUSINESS:

There was no old business.

NEW BUSINESS:

Chair Triplett said we need to elect an Executive Committee for the Board. The Board needs to appoint a Nominating Committee to make recommendations for the appointment. Mr. Triplett made a recommendation for Shanna Draheim (Chair), Derek Melot and Dion'trae Hayes to be on the Nominating Committee.

MOTION: A motion was made by Jennie Gies and supported by Dusty Fancher to appoint Shanna Draheim, Derek Melot and Dion'Trae Hayes to the Nominating Committee.

VOTE: The motion carried unanimously.

Chair Triplett informed the Board that if they are interested in serving on the Executive Committee, they will need to contact Shanna Draheim, Chair.

Mr. Funkhouser proposed that the Board meetings be moved to the evening to accommodate those who work until 5 p.m. After many suggestions, it was decided to poll the Board members. September's meeting will be at 4 p.m. Mr. Funkhouser also noted that CATA is researching a possible route deviation on Board meeting days at CATA's Tranter Street location.

Page 8 of 9 CATA Board of Directors Meeting - 09/19/2018 ACTION ITEM V A

PUBLIC COMMENTS:

Fred Wurtzel congratulated the Board on a great meeting. Mr. Wurtzel noted the school bus policy impacts CATA's service and also appreciates Mr. Funkhouser talking to the public at Grange Acres. Mr. Wurtzel is skeptical on the downtown circulator. He asked that we invest more into snow removal at bus stops

Diana Engle thanked CATA for the expanded service but would like to see better connectors. Ms. Engle works downtown and thinks 15 minutes departures aren't fast enough.

ADJOURNMENT:

There was no further business. Dusty Fancher moved to adjourn the meeting. The motion was supported by Doug Lecato and carried unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 6:07 p.m.

Bleakley, Cypher, Parent, Warren & Quinn, P.C., where James Helminski is the attorney working on CATA's Worker's Compensation and Self-Insured Fund cases.

George Brookover, P.e., where George Brookover is the attorney who has been advising us on millage election requirements, as needed. We recommend George as a resource for millage related questions.

Dickinson Wright, P.L.L.e., where David Houston and James Mauro are the attorneys who have been working on the IRS and State of Michigan payroll tax penalty and interest issues and other litigation matters.

Murphy & Spagnuolo, P.e., where Vince Spagnuolo and Lindsay Dangl have worked on several issues of insurance litigation and environmental issues. His firm has also worked on litigation related to security issues and has been very effective. Recently, this firm has also begun assisting with other legal matters including labor relations, disciplinary matters, FTA, and MDOT- related work.

Miller Johnson Attorneys, where Jeff Ammon is the attorney that has worked on procurement, large and small bus, FTA, MDOT and contracting matters.

I strongly recommend that the Board approve CATA's continued relationship with all five law firms. I have been very impressed with the quality of work they have done for us over the years which has been the key to preventing further litigation. Each firm has done their part to make sure we cover all our bases. The system works great and I appreciate your support.

CATA BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING - 09/16/2018 ACTION ITEM V - E

ACTION ITEM - FINANCIAL AUTHORITY RESOLUTION

In order for CATA to execute business with Fifth Third Bank and other financial institutions, Staff recommends the following.

PROPOSED MOTION: That the CATA Board of Directors adopts the Resolution set forth below:

RESOLUTION OF BOARD OF DIRECTORS

ACTION ITEM - APPROVAL OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO CATA TRANSPORTATION CENTER LEASE AGREEMENT WITH GREYHOUND LINES INC.

Since November of 1997, Capital Area Transportation Authority ("CATA") has leased office space and four (4) bus bays to Greyhound Lines Inc. ("GLI"), at the CATA Transportation Center, 420 South Grand Avenue, Lansing. Subsequently, there have been two (2) lease extensions, which were agreed upon, once in April 2007 and November 2012. The current Agreement expired on November 15, 2017.

Staff has been in discussion with GLI over the last several months regarding the terms of the Agreement. As part of the negotiations, the agreement was extended through June 30, 2018. The First Amendment to the contract (November 1997) will retroactively begin July 1, 2018. The First Amendment includes the following:

• The terms of the agreement are for five (5) years, from July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2023. • Details of the monthly rent payment and shared expenses such as utilities ("additional rent"). • Renewal option to extend the agreement from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2028. • All other terms and conditions remain the same.

On August 10, 2018, GLI signed the First Amendment as outlined above.

Staff recommends that the Board adopt the proposed motion set forth below.

ACTION ITEM - FREE RIDES FOR VETERANS AND ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY ON VETERANS DAY

In honor of the men and women of the armed forces, Staff proposes a free-ride offer to veterans and active-duty military personnel on Veterans Day, Sunday, November 11, 2018. This special free-ride offer would be available system-wide on fixed-route and paratransit services, both of which would run their regular schedules.

Eligible individuals would be required to show proof of current service in the U.S. Armed Forces, including reserve components or the Michigan National Guard, or that they were discharged or released from such service. Acceptable identification includes U.S. Department of Defense ID (or being in active-duty uniform), VA identification card, state identification card with veterans designation, discharge form such as DD-214, Michigan National Guard lO, or other government-issued identification deSignating the holder with active duty or veteran status.

While it is estimated that there are more than 15,000 veterans in the CATA service area, the cost of this proposal is expected to be minimal. CATA similarly offers free rides to registered voters on Election Day, generating an increase of fewer than 100 rides per day, which translates to approximately $125 in waived fares.

Staff recommends adoption of the proposed motion set forth below.

PROPOSED MOTION : That the Board of Directors approves free rides on fixed route and paratransit service for veterans and active-duty military personnel, including members of the U.S. Armed Forces, reserve components, or other Michigan National Guard on Veterans Day, Sunday, November 11, 2018, and that Chief Executive Officer, Bradley T. Funkhouser, is authorized to implement this program on terms and conditions he deems appropriate. CATA Board Of Directors Meeting - 09/18/2018 NEW BUSINESS VII-A

INFORMATION ITEM - FAMILY MEDICAL LEAVE ADMINISTRATION (FMLA) OUTSOURCING

Capital Area Transportation Authority (CATA) is required to follow all FMLA regulations as dictated by 29 CFR 825.

In June 2018, CATA requested quotes from various FMLA administration providers to assist us in managing the amount of certifications that have continued to increase over the last several years.

Staff has been managing this requirement since inception, and the amount of time spent to administer these required benefits is very demanding. After a recent evaluation of FMLA use, CATA solicited bids to outsource the administration of this benefit. After careful consideration of four bids, BASIC was the provider of choice.

CATA received responses from three firms which were evaluated against the following criteria: 1) demonstrated project experience; 2) ease of process; and 3) rate.

See attached chart for price comparison.

BASIC was awarded the contract with high confidence for the following reasons:

Each case is assigned a certified Case Manager, and a Nurse Case Manager when needed Direct contact with providers to clarify and authenticate medical certifications, 2nd and 3rd opinions as needed • Wallet card for employees • Intermittent leave management Online and in-person phone intake with 24-hr reporting Training for any CATA staff we need for use of the Dashboard Manage all activities for return to work activities

The contract will continue until either party submits a sixty (60) day written notice of termination.

CATA's Human Resources Manager will oversee the ongoing contract and serve as the project manager. PRICI C P RIS OF3 E D RS (ASSUME 350 EMPLOYEES)UPDATED7-12-18

Good morning, Ariana, and welcome to CATA!

The final trip for each CATA route varies by route. If you're riding an MSU route - the Route 30, for example, which serves South and East Neighborhoods - the final outbound trip departs Ramp 1 at 2:16 a.m. It departs Fee at Conrad at 2:28 a.m. The last outbound trip for Route 31, serving Brody and East Neighborhoods, is at 2:21 a.m. from Ramp 1; from Fee at Conrad, it's at 2:24 a.m. Plan to arrive 5 minutes prior to your scheduled departure time to make sure you don't miss the last bus.

The final departure for Route 25, which serves North Harrison, is at 9:40 p.m. from the Lake Lansing Meijer.

You can plan a trip, find route schedules or find a CATA bus stop near you at https:l!www.cata.org!Routes-Schedules.

Please let us know if we can assist further. If you're an MSU student, we'll be on campus this week to help you learn all about riding CATA. We'll keep an eye out for you!
