RAS trips are all day ventures and typically involve 3 to 4 different modes of transportation to reach the planned destination. In the past year trips included 㺋쀀 x route buses, light rail, trains and ferries. Type of Project *

Capital Is this application for a project or program that is existing, expanded or new? Please see de 㺋쀀 nitions below as needed. * Existing Expanded New (not to combine with existing or expanded) Existing (sustaining) An existing project/ program is currently addressing a need or gap identi 㺋쀀 ed in the Coordinated plan and this grant application is to maintain the current service levels/ geographic areas/ hours, etc. that meet those needs or gaps. A project / program is still considered existing even if it has never been funded by the Coordinated Grant in the past or if the grant request is increased over current amounts in order to maintain the existing level of service. Expansion A project/ program is considered an expansion if the Coordinated Grant request is to build on an existing project/ program to fund increased service levels, expanded service to new areas or expanded hours of service, an expanded program, new busses purchased to expand service, new staff hours, etc. The project/program is considered expansion only if grant funds are used for expansion. New A project/ program is considered new if it is a stand-alone project/program that has not been funded by the Coordinated Grant and wouldn t be characterized as building upon or expanding an existing program. Examples include new technologies, new service, a new program, new mobility management/travel training program, etc. 2 / 3 Agency and Contact Information Sponsoring Agency * Senior Services of Snohomish County Contact Name * Tom Dietz Contact Phone * 4252901265 Contact Email *

For the current biennium, this program was funded through SNOTRAC, for which Senior Services of Snohomish County is the 㺋쀀 scal agent. Also, this request was merged with Pay Your Pal, so this project was funded for a total of $180,000. Now this program is stand alone under TAP, and this request is for the baseline amount of $90,000 4 / 5 Project or Program Scalability Is your project scalable? * No In what increments can your project be scaled back and still remain a viable project? If this is an expansion project, please indicate if it can be scaled in smaller increments if unable to award the full amount of expansion request. *

This funding request represents the amount needed to run this program and meet full capacity. While any support is welcomed and appreciated, scaled back funding would result in a reduction in services and unmet needs for residents with special needs. Any reduction in funding would result in the inability to assist all residents in need of customized learning so they can navigate the seemingly daunting logistics of public transportation to meet their basic needs. 5 / 6 Budget Revenues and Expenses Please identify the budget for the project/program including the match amount in the tables below.

6 / 7 Project Service Level Infomation Please provide the current biennium (2015-2017) service levels as well as the service levels projected for the next biennium (2017-2019). Depending on the project type, these can be provided using revenue vehicle hours, revenue vehicle trips, passenger trips, volunteer hours, etc. For mobility management projects, summarize your service accomplishments both quantitatively and qualitatively. * During 2016, Transportation Outreach is on pace to provide 45 Travel Instruction trips with 200 participants. A survey is given to all new riders for every trip and all riders are polled every other month on a site rotation bases. Results show that new riders feel their skill level in riding the bus has improved on average 96% after taking a Transportation Outreach trip. Riders that have attended two or more events feel their skill level in riding the bus has improved 100%. The greatest improvement is in trip planning (three different ways to plan a trip is covered in the pretrip orientation). After their 㺋쀀 rst trip 78% of the participants felt they could plan a trip using public transportation. This number increased to 93% for those participants that had taken two or more Transportation Outreach trips. To ensure program outreach efforts are reaching the intended special needs populations. RAS also collects demographic data on program passengers. The age range of participants this past year was 49 to 88. With a median age of 71; 88% of the participants are women. 7 / 8 WSDOT Consolidated Grant Regional Priority Ranking If you are applying for funding through the WSDOT Consolidated Grant program, please provide a justi 㺋쀀 cation for why your program or project should receive a regional priority ranking from the central Puget Sound region (PSRC)? If your are applying for PSRC funding only, please indicate by including "Not Applicable" below. * Receiving a high regional priority ranking from PSRC is very crucial to the success of TAP and its efforts to secure support for Transportation Outreach for special needs transportation in Snohomish County. A high ranking positions TAP to receive the necessary funding to purchase much needed vehicles and leverages the program to improving collaboration with the surrounding counties (King, Skagit and Pierce). A high ranking signi 㺋쀀 es a vital sign of regional support for state funding for a program that 㺋쀀 lls a signi 㺋쀀 cant service area gap for transportation agencies and clients in Snohomish County. Please indicate whether you require state funding from WSDOT in order to ensure minimum match for federal funds. * No

Not Applicable Are you willing to withdraw your Consolidated Grant regional priority ranking request and WSDOT Consolidated Grant application if the Special Needs Transportation Committee (SNTC) provides a recommendation for PSRC to fund your program/project request with FTA Section 5310 funds? [Note: 㺋쀀 nal decision on PSRC funding occurs after the WSDOT grant deadline.] * No Not Applicable 8 / 9 Policy Criteria Addressing Needs and Gaps The needs and gaps identi 㺋쀀 ed in the PSRC 2015-2018 Coordinated Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan are noted in Chapter 4 of the plan document. Please reference these in your answers below. Identify the needs and gaps from the PSRC 2015-2018 Coordinated Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan that your project/program addresses. For expansion projects, please include only the needs and gaps that the existing project addresses. *

Goal #1 Put People First High-Priority Strategy A and B respectively: 'Develop and deliver affordable, accessible, and innovative transportation programs and projects that address the needs and gaps identi 㺋쀀 ed in the Coordinated Plan', and 'improve connections to and within the regional transportation system'. Other Priority Strategy D: Encourage and respond to stakeholder feedback. (Page 46) Transportation Outreach is a very innovative and successful travel instruction program. This 'learn by doing' travel program familiarizes older adults with available transportation options in the Puget Sound region. Program outcomes that this service supports form the PSRC Plan include Easier to use transportation services and information resources; Improved cross-jurisdictional connections; Improved access to transportation options; and Innovative traveler information resources. Goal #2 Move People Ef 㺋쀀 ciently High-Priority Strategy A: 'Create new and maintain existing partnerships that address the needs and gaps identi 㺋쀀 ed in this plan.' Other Priority Strategies G: 'Educate the special needs community on ef 㺋쀀 cient use of transportation resources and services.' By implementing the strategies of Goal #2, Transportation Outreach supports the PSRC Plan outcomes: More mobility options for special needs populations; Ef 㺋쀀 cient use of existing special needs transportation resources; and Increased awareness among seniors on ef 㺋쀀 cient use of transportation options. Describe how the project or program addresses those needs or gaps. For expansion projects, please only address how the existing projects addresses the needs or gaps. * A survey is given to all new riders for every trip and all riders are polled every other month on a site rotation bases. Results show that new riders feel their skill level in riding the bus has improved on average 96% after taking a Transportation Outreach trip. Riders that have attended two or more program events feel their skill level in riding the bus has improved 100%. The greatest improvement is in trip planning (three different ways to plan a trip is covered in the pretrip orientation). After their 㺋쀀 rst Transportation Outreach trip 78% of the participants felt they could plan a trip using public transportation. This number increased to 93% for those participants that had taken two or more trips. To ensure program outreach efforts are reaching the intended special needs populations. Transportation Outreach also collects demographic data on program passengers. The age range of participants this past year was 49 to 88. With a median age of 71; 88% of the participants are women. If your program does not receive grant funding, will the lack of funding create a new mobility need or gap for people with special transportation needs? * If so, please describe the impact to populations served in terms of creating new needs or gaps if your project or program is not funded. *

This funding request is designed to meet the core capacity needs for community interest in the Transportation Outreach project and address any potential gaps. If Transportation Outreach is not funded, this will result in a number of residents each year without the assistance of a customized training for their needs, which will likely lead to frustration and exasperation for individuals that are already vulnerable. 9 / 10 Policy Criteria Goals and Prioritized Strategies The goals and prioritized strategies identi 㺋쀀 ed in the PSRC 2015-2018 Coordinated Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan are described beginning on page 46 of the plan document. Please reference these in your answers. Identify the prioritized strategy(ies) from the PSRC 2015-2018 Coordinated Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan that your project or program addresses and describe how the project or program addresses this(these) strategy(ies). *

The PSRC plan has identi 㺋쀀 ed three goals and their corresponding strategies: Goal 3# 'Move More People' and speci 㺋쀀 cally strategy F - 'Maintain or replace vehicles, equipment, and other resources needed to sustain existing services' most directly addresses the need to purchase replacement vehicles for the TAP program. However, the TAP program also supports Goal #1 and Goal #2. Goal #1 Put People First Strategy A) PSRC Strategy: Develop and deliver affordable, accessible, and innovative transportation. In Snohomish County 14% of the population is 65+, 11% live with a disability, and 8% are Limited English Pro 㺋쀀 ciency individuals. TAP provides affordable and safe transportation for vulnerable adults including seniors 62+; individuals with mental and physical disabilities; and (in collaboration with the only Multicultural Senior Center in Snohomish County) Limited English Pro 㺋쀀 cient (LEP) seniors. In the past two years, TAP provided an annual average of 17,739 passenger trips covering 172,287 miles. Strategy B) PSRC Strategy: Improve connections to and within the regional transportation system. By closely coordinating services, TAP is able to improve connections with other transit providers including Everett Paratransit, Community Transit s DART service, Catholic Community Services Volunteer Transportation Program, SNOTRAC s Pay Your Pal program, Northshore Senior Center Transportation, the Tulalip Tribes, the Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians, Sound Transit, and King County Access. In applied and practical ways TAP literally removes barriers to connections for riders. In the past year, TAP safely transferred 809 passengers to other transit providers. In addition, TAP works with organizations through participation in the SNOTRAC Steering Committee and Executive Committee. Yet 'Putting People First' and accomplishing these high priority strategies is not possible without safe and functional buses. The replacement of these vehicles including the addition of some smaller and more ef 㺋쀀 cient paratransit vehicles would help accomplish the above strategies, meet the needs of the community, and result in improved transportation reliability for special needs populations in Snohomish County. 10 / 11 Policy Criteria Coordination and Avoiding Unnecessary Duplications Describe how your organization demonstrates effective partnerships (including long-term 㺋쀀 nancial partners), combines resources for developing or sustaining projects or fosters shared-use arrangements. *

Snohomish County is divided into two SMART Transportation Corridors - the West Corridor that runs along I-5 and the East Corridor that makes up the more rural eastern parts of the county. (See PSRC Plan, Attachment F, Pages 16-29.) Within these corridors and regionally, passengers expect travel choices. However, with the numerous transportation systems, the connection points between travel modes can be problematic and for older adults and people with disabilities these transfer points can be stressful and potentially unsafe. When scheduling trips, TAP works closely with our passengers and their caregivers to determine their ability to make connections and transfer within and between transit systems and modes. Passengers are never left unattended when transferring. The TAP program works with the following transit modes and agencies: Fixed-route buses (Everett Transit and Community Transit); rail service (Sound Transit); ADA Paratransit (Everett Paratransit, Community Transit DART, King County Access); Light Duty Busses (Tulalip and Stillaguamish Tribes' demand response services); and Private Vehicles (Catholic Community Services' Volunteer Transportation). Do any of your partners provide 㺋쀀 nancial commitment to the project/program? * No Cite jurisdiction or planning documents that includes or supports your project/ program. These can include local comprehensive plans, mobility management plans, plans developed by area agencies on aging, etc. * Puget Sound Regional Council Coordinated Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan Covering Federal Fiscal Years 2015-2018: Transportation Outreach falls under Goal #3 - Move More People "Other Priority Strategies F" (Pg 48). In addition, (TAP) is listed on page 39 - "Regional Examples of Addressing Needs and Gaps"; Attachment F Page 20 "SMART Corridors West Snohomish County - Special Needs Transportation"; and Attachment F Page 27 "SMART Corridors East Snohomish County - Special Needs Transportation".

Vision 2040 referenced in the PSRC 2015-18 Coordinated Plan is in line with the long-term vision of TAP. Does your project/program serve a geographical area that is already served by another agency, including a public transit agency or is there another duplication in service provided? * No 11 / 12

Technical Criteria Technical Capacity Describe how your project/ program makes ef 㺋쀀 cient use of funds. * Ride Around the Sound is overseen by one staff member and has a strong volunteer component. This allows the program to thrive, and the costs are only labor and bene 㺋쀀 ts for the program lead, overhead costs, and expenses related to the delivery of this program. Describe how your organization has increased program/project 㺋쀀 nancial sustainability over time for the project/ program seeking grant funds. * To meet the growing demand based off the consistently increasing number of residents over 60 residing in Snohomish county, TAP has increased program 㺋쀀 nancial sustainability during its long tenure as a premier special needs transportation service provider in Snohomish county. The unmet need in Snohomish County has remained at a high level. TAP now has the ability to expand our service area and continue to bring citizens into the major transit corridors. These riders do not have options to get them into the main line area. With future funding opportunities afforded TAP through this grant will allow TAP to continue at a 3% growth rate and perhaps more. Adding vehicles to our 뼘쀀 eet will bring our 뼘쀀 eet to within federal useful life standards as well as provide safe, reliable, and comfortable vehicles for our citizens. Does your staff / agency have experience implementing programs using state or federal funds? * No If so, explain the role of the staff/ agency in managing these funds and if the grant was managed successfully (met project milestones, minimized returned funds, addressed all federal or state reporting requirements, etc.). * 3 TAP has a long history of exemplary 㺋쀀 scal management of grant funds and meeting project milestones as the mobility management program for Snohomish County. Senior Services of Snohomish County boasts over 40 years of successful 㺋쀀 nancial stewardship for a number of programs from a number of funding sources. This includes individual donations, private and corporate grants, and government grants at the city, county, state, and federal level. Did this program/project return federal or state funds from the 2013-15 biennium? * No Is your project/program funded by PSRC or WSDOT grants for the 2015-17 biennium? *

No Please indicate how much has been spent in the July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016 time period, and whether or not your project/program is on-track to fully expend its grant funds in the biennium. $90,000 7/255 characters Has your agency had any issue with complying with federal or state grant requirements that has threatened its standing with WSDOT since July 1, 2013? * No Please describe your project/program s implementation or maintenance plan including milestones, coordination efforts and/or outcomes, as appropriate to the type of project. * Transportation Outreach instructs seniors on all aspects of trip planning including the use of public transit, use of the ORCA card, obtaining reduced-fare permits as well as other vital transportation information that will assist them in traveling safely throughout the region and between transportation modes. Transportation Outreach trips are all day ventures and typically involve 3 to 4 different modes of transportation to reach the planned destination. In the past year trips included 㺋쀀 x route buses, light rail, trains and ferries. This program exists to make sure all current and potential clients of Snohomish County special needs transportation learn the logistics and are comfortable with the process. 12 / 13 Technical Criteria Bene 㺋쀀 t To Special Needs Populations Identify your project/program service area in terms of geographical boundaries. * TAP services operate throughout Snohomish County and in collaboration with surrounding counties. TAP 㺋쀀 lls in the gaps where Community Transit and Everett Transit do not serve, and these agencies work together to avoid duplication of services. Please upload a project map here, if available.

Choose File No 㺋쀀 le chosen SSSC_-_Population_Density_Map_2016.pdf (362k) Upload Delete Describe the number of people that the project/ program serves and your capacity to serve them (Note: capacity can be described in terms of number of vehicles, drivers, boardings, travel training events, etc. Please describe capacity in the most logical terms for your project/program.) If your agency serves other people through other funding sources, be clear what percentage or number of people will be served by the PSRC/ WSDOT grant funds and how that differs from your other projects/ programs. * During 2016, TAP is projected to have the following service numbers: 12 buses, 350 clients, 12,000 service hours, 200,000 service miles, and 20,000 trips. For comparison, 2012 numbers were: 9 buses, 196 clients, 9,002 service hours, 175,416 service miles, and 17,513 trips. TAP has successfully grown and met the service needs of the community, and has the capacity to continue this pattern and meet the growing demand for special needs transportation. During 2016, Transportation Outreach will provide 45 trips to 250 clients. Please explain how you incorporate feedback from populations that you serve in planning and implementing your program. * Transportation Outreach surveys results indicate that new riders feel their skill level in riding the bus improves 96% after taking a trip. Riders that have attended two or more Transportation Outreach events feel their skill level in riding the bus improves 100%. TAP tracks clients, service hours, trips, and service miles covered. This information is used to project service numbers for upcoming service years. Additionally, TAP surveys clients, and below are the results from the most recent feedback request: 97% (312) of TAP passengers report decreased barriers to using transportation. 91% (293) of TAP passengers report increased access to critical services. 86% (276) of TAP passengers report increased independence. 91% (293) of TAP passengers report increased social contacts (reduced isolation). This data paired with feedback from staff and information gathered in collaboration with other transit authorities and interested community partners (SNOTRAC) serve as the basis for outlining desired program outcomes that are realistic within funding available. Provide an explanation on how this project/ program provides favorable bene 㺋쀀 t to the population served. If possible, please provide data to reinforce explanation. *

TAP provides transportation between under served urbanized and rural areas, to essential services often in more urban centers. These rides result in improved quality of life and greater independence. TAP tracks a number of measures including number of clients served, trips taken and service miles driven. As a result, the program is able to track performance measures including Cost/Trip ($29.52); Cost/Mile ($2.98), and Passengers/Day (77). Each of these productivity measures is negatively impacted when a vehicle is taken out of service because of equipment failure. More generally, the positive impact of replacing the four vehicles can be evaluated through quality, ef 㺋쀀 ciency and Mobility measures as de 㺋쀀 ned by the PSRC Plan (Page 50). In particular the Mobility measure 'Additions or changes to environmental infrastructure, technology, and vehicles that impact availability of transportation services as a result of projects implemented in a special needs grant funding cycle'. In addition, the following quality, ef 㺋쀀 ciency and mobility measures are negatively impacted when productivity is decreased do to poorly operating vehicles: Quality Measures: Number of seniors and individuals with disabilities afforded mobility they would not have without program support. Ability for transportation disadvantaged people to meet medical, employment, and social needs. Transportation service customer comments. Rider satisfaction. Ef 㺋쀀 ciency Measures: Average cost per trip, including administration and capital depreciation. Average cost per mile, including administration and capital depreciation. Average number of passengers per hour or per day. Mobility Measures: Actual or estimated numbers of rides (measured in one-way trips) provided annually to seniors or individuals with disabilities. Number of people using public transportation in the region If your project is continuing from past funding cycles, describe each performance measure that was cited your last grant application and address how well the project/ program has performed to meet the objective. *

Pre and post trip survey results show that new Transportation Outreach riders feel their skill level in riding the bus has improved on average 96%. Riders that have attended two or more events feel their skill level in riding the bus has improved 100%. In addition, after their 㺋쀀 rst trip 78% of the participants felt they could plan a trip using public transportation. This number increased to 93% for those participants that had taken two or more Transportation trips.
