School Bus Fleet Renewal carries a $250,173 state allocation for FY 2027. The slide says the district receives funding for 33 buses, is purchasing 1 bus by November 1, and will need to purchase 6 more by November 1, 2027, while also paying principal and interest on 2 bus loans.

Grant Funding

The document sets the City of Cheyenne Transit Program's FY 2027 Wyoming Rural Public Transit Program subrecipient agreement with WYDOT. The state award was $302,862 for the Rural Public Transit Program under Project No. FT27141, with performance from October 1, 2026 through December 31, 2027 and a budget period through September 30, 2027. This is a grant-funded transit operations agreement, so the award itself was decided, but it creates a funded vehicle for third-party transit purchases and subcontracts that must comply with FTA, Buy America, DBE, and telecommunications restrictions.
