THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The Board authorized purchase of sixteen 40‑foot clean diesel buses from Gillig under an existing five‑year contract, at up to $904,154 per bus including contingencies, for a total not to exceed $14,466,462.40. Four buses will replace end‑of‑life vehicles and twelve will expand service under Choose How You Move, funded by local capital, CHYM, federal 5339(b), and state matching funds. This confirms Gillig as the fleet incumbent and signals future needs for parts, technology options, and maintenance support across the expanding bus fleet.
AmeriTran serves as third‑party inspector for Buy America pre‑award and post‑delivery audits; buses support CHYM expansion.
