ITEM 1. RESOLUTION, SUPPORTING FUNDING OF NORTHEAST
TRANSPORTATION SERVICE (NETS)
Assistant to the City Manger Jennifer Hibbs recommended approval of a resolution urging
Federal and State legislative bodies to reauthorize the current level of funding for Northeast
Transportation Service (NETS). NETS currently receives funding from the Federal Transit
Administration (50%), with local matches as follows: TxDOT (15%) and the member cities
(35%). At the State level, NETS receives approximately $190,000 per biennium. Due to
budgetary concerns, a reduction in State funding could reduce the amount available to
match and therefore, receive, all of the available federal funding. NETS serves the
transportation needs of senior citizens and persons with disabilities in eight Northeast
Tarrant County cities.
