existing high performing JARC routes is a regional priority. The additional federal operating funds willrequire a 50 percent local match in the amount of $1,078,930.00, for a total additional grant amount of$2,157,860.00.

PURPOSE

To adopt proposed service modifications for CobbLinc Route 10.

BACKGROUND

CobbLinc Route 10 is one of several local routes currently operated as a service of CobbCommunity Transit (CCT). This route has the highest ridership among all routes in the CCTsystem, and is one of the highest ridership transit bus routes in the southeast. CobbLinc Route10, which routinely experiences heavy ridership loads, is the workhorse of the CCT system,accounting for more than 25 percent of all boardings system-wide. Therefore, it is critical thatRoute 10 operate as efficiently and dependably as possible.

On March 10, 2015, the Board of Commissioners approved Project No. E5030-TO#02 to theMaster Task Order Contract with Parsons Brinckerhoff, Inc., for development of a CCT Route25 Implementation Plan and Route 10 Performance Evaluation. Parsons Brinkerhoff, Inc., hasconducted an extensive evaluation of the current Route 10 performance, overcrowding, andservice quality concerns, and has developed recommendations for improving Route 10 service

operations.

On November 24, 2015, recommendations for improving Route 10 service operations werepresented to the Board during the Work Session meeting. Recommendations include adjustingrunning times, adjusting peak service times, and the addition of one bus during both morningand afternoon peak service hours.

There will be a very strict policy in place that will ban the sale of alcohol to underage persons.

POS will require the date of birth of the person buying the alcohol products; if the person isunderage, the product will not be rung up and processed by the machine. Every customer buyingalcohol will need to provide a valid ID. Failure to check the ID can result in the termination of theemployee. Born on date to buy alcohol will be displayed on POS and calendars will be hung in thestore. Additionally, employees will be given proper training to prevent underage sales. Cameraswill be installed to keep up with the policies, and the recordings will be kept for at least 30 days.

31. Why should the LRB grant the alcohol license?

There is no grocery store in this area; opening a grocery store will be helpful for the communitysince most of the people need to ride a bus to reach another grocery store. Additionally,customers desire a one-stop store where they can buy all that they need and if they cannot findalcohol at this location, they will need to travel to a different location which will not only be adisadvantage to the store but also a hassle for the people.

Employees will need to take an assessment after their training to confirm that they have learnedthe laws, regulations, and procedures regarding alcohol sale. Only those who successfully displaytheir understanding will be allowed to sell alcoholic beverages. These results will be kept on file.
