Item Number: H.3. CITY COUNCIL REPORT SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2652 - FY 2027 Amendment to the Transit Services Agreement with the Regional Public Transportation Authority (RPTA) MEETING DATE: June 23, 2026 TO: Mayor and Council FROM: Jason Earp, Development Services Director REVIEWED: Reyes Medrano, Jr., City Manager PURPOSE: City Council will consider adopting Resolution No. 2652 approving the FY 2027 Amendment to the Transit Services Agreement between the City of Tolleson and the Regional Public Transportation Authority (RPTA) and authorizing the Mayor to execute the Amendment. BACKGROUND: The City of Tolleson participates in regional public transportation services through an existing Transit Services Agreement with the Regional Public Transportation Authority (RPTA). The Agreement establishes the terms and conditions under which RPTA provides regional transit services to residents and visitors within the City. Each fiscal year, RPTA prepares an amendment to the Agreement to update service schedules, operating assumptions, and funding allocations for the upcoming fiscal year. The FY 2027 Amendment replaces and supersedes Schedules A, B, C, D, and E of the current Agreement while all other terms and conditions remain unchanged. DISCUSSION: The FY 2027 Amendment provides for the continuation of regional transit services within the City of Tolleson for the period of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Under Schedule A, RPTA will continue to provide regionally funded fixed-route bus service within Tolleson. The estimated value of these services is $642,968 and is funded through regional transit funding sources. Schedules B, C, and D identify fixed-route bus, ADA paratransit, and RideChoice services funded through regional transportation revenues. No direct City contribution is required for these services during FY 2027. Schedule E identifies an estimated $152,777 in Public Transportation Funds (PTF) available to support ADA- related transit services. Approval of the Amendment will allow the City to continue receiving regional transit services and maintain participation in the regional transit network without interruption. BUDGET IMPACT: There is no direct financial obligation to the City of Tolleson associated with the FY 2027 Amendment. The fixed- route, ADA paratransit, and RideChoice services identified in the Amendment are funded through regional transportation funding sources, including Public Transportation Funds (PTF). Therefore, no additional appropriations are required as a result of this action. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of Resolution No. 2652 approving the FY 2027 Amendment to the Transit Services Agreement between the City of Tolleson and the Regional Public Transportation Authority and authorizing the Mayor to execute the Amendment.
