The purpose of this agreement is to fund the continued implementation of the Maricopa County Travel Reduction Program (TRP). This agreement is effective July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025. An amount of up to $175,000.00 will be passed through to the Regional Public Transportation Authority as an external service provider upon separate agenda and approval for services provided between July 1, 2024, and June 30, 2025. Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore expenditures of these revenues are not prohibited by the budget law. The grant award is reoccurring and has been awarded to MCAQD in previous years. The cash or in-kind match is not applicable. Indirect cost is fully recoverable. MCAQD's FY2025 indirect cost rate is 35.34%. All indirect costs are allowable and fully recoverable. Indirect costs will be applied to the MCAQD retained amount of $697,692.00. The total direct costs are $515,510.00 and recoverable indirect costs are $182,182.00. Future ongoing cash contributions are not required after the grant period. Per Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS) §49-581 et seq., the TRP is a mandated function of MCAQD. The grant award is non-competitive - not applicable. There are no costs that will need to be absorbed by the department’s operating budget. (C-85-24-040-X-00)
