From the meeting
At its July 23, 2026 meeting the Southern Iowa Trolley board approved two Special Project Funding Applications. One application sought unobligated FY27 State Transit Assistance (STA) special project funds, and the other sought leftover funding from three FTA COVID-relief grants. If awarded, the money would support operating expenses or other approved expenses allowed by Iowa DOT.
The funding path is still open pending award decisions.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
