BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:

In Florida, a Transit Development Plan (TDP) is required by the State for recipients of Public Transit Block Grant program funding and is regulated by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). A TDP serves as the basis for defining public transit needs, which is a prerequisite to receive State Block Grant funds. A Major Update to the TDP is required every 5 years. Beyond regulatory and administrative requirements, the TDP is intended to serve as a 10-year strategic plan for MARTY. The TDP will define public transportation needs, solicit broad input by coordinating with other plans, involve substantial public participation and explore community goals with decision-makers and other stakeholders, define alternative courses of action, and develop a systemic plan and monitoring program.

ISSUES:
