Item No. 16 <br />memorandum <br />TO: Mayor & City Council <br />FROM: John Godwin, City Manager <br />SUBJECT: PARIS TRANSIT <br />DATE: January 15, 2016 <br />BACKGROUND: As we have discussed previously, the area COG and United Way have been <br />working together to get a fixed -route transit system in Paris, hopefully to begin operation in the <br />spring. The city has agreed to provide some shelter construction assistance and to manufacture <br />and install route signage. <br />STATUS OF ISSUE: United Way's April Carl has requested an opportunity to address the <br />council to request some financial assistance to complete the required local grant match of just <br />over $100,000, most of which has already been pledged. Ms. Carl will be at the Monday council <br />meeting to explain the need in more detail, and answer any questions you may have. <br />BUDGET: NA. <br />
