  • SOUND TRANSIT MOTION NO. M99-46 Revised Policy Regarding
    SOUND TRANSIT MOTION NO. M99-46 Revised policy regarding advertising on Sound Transit vehicles and at transit facilities and stations BACKGROUND AND COMMENTS Meeting: Date: Type of action: Staff contact: Phone: Public & Government 7/2/99 Discussion Betty Laurs 206-398-5120 Affairs Recommendation Board of Directors 7/8/99 Discussion/Possible Action Tim Healy 206-398-5062 ACTION: Motion No. M99-46 would revise and supersede Motion No. 98-79 adopting a policy allowing advertising on Sound Transit vehicles and at transit facilities and stations to: 1. Exempt coaches leased or purchased from partner agencies that already have revenue-generating advertising on them from a six-month moratorium period allowing only Sound Transit self- promotion advertising, and 2. Allow Sound Transit the option of contracting directly with an outside vendor to sell, produce, install, maintain and remove advertising on any or all of its fleet after the six-month period of self-promotion on new vehicles. BACKGROUND: In negotiating agreements with Community Transit, King County Metro and Pierce Transit to operate Sound Transit services, it has become evident that the agency’s adopted advertising policy requires some minor modifications. 1. Exempt coaches leased or purchased from partner agencies that already have revenue-generating advertising on them from a six-month moratorium period allowing only Sound Transit self- promotion advertising The previously adopted policy stipulates that only advertising for the agency and its services be allowed for six months after service is launched to avoid distract from Sound Transit's identity. It was originally assumed that ST would only use new coaches purchased directly from manufacturers.
