Citrus County is planning to reduce the local match for future transit grants. This is being done through an agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for the Public Transit Block Grant Program. The total agreement amount is $778,006, with $389,003 coming from grant funding and a required local match of $389,003. This funding will be used to cover a portion of the local match for future Federal Transit Administration (FTA) 5307 or FDOT 5311 grants. The county's match will be 25% of the total project cost, with the block grant covering 25% and the FTA or FDOT covering 50%. This item has been approved by the Board of County Commissioners. The project involves securing grant funding and allocating county funds for future transit operations. This early stage presents an opportunity for contractors, suppliers, and service providers to engage with the county as specific future projects are identified and planned, potentially involving transit vehicle acquisition, facility upgrades, or operational support services.
