From the meeting
The grants section states FTA PM Grant funding would cover all preventive maintenance cost for FY26 with 80% Federal Transit Administration funding and indirect cost reimbursement on budgeted PM lines. At the September 16, 2026 finance presentation, the funding assumption was central to vessel and maintenance budgeting but still carried risk if FTA reimbursement came in below plan. This is a live grant-funded maintenance signal tied to ferry operations.
