CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO — REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
Staff Report
Subject:
Resolution authorizing a Bus Shelter Services Agreement with Omnitrans to administer a
passenger amenities program at current and future bus stops.
Background:
In 1999, Omnitrans developed a Passenger Amenities Program for cities in the County of San
Bernardino in an effort to construct and maintain bus shelters. Prior to that time, the City of San
Bernardino had an agreement with an advertising company to maintain the shelters and the City
received a small amount of revenue. However, there were constant complaints from business
owners and residents regarding the lack of maintenance. The City of San Bernardino approved a
ten year agreement to with Omnitrans to administer the Passenger Amenities Program in the City
and the program has been very successful. New shelters were constructed and the contractor has
done a good job in maintaining the strict maintenance standards set forth in the agreement. The
program has vastly improved the appearance of bus stops throughout the City.
The agreement has expired and Omnitrans is requesting that the City enter into a new agreement
until December 2014 which is consistent with their opportunity to renew the agreement with the
advertising company at the same time their "On Bus" advertising agreement expires. There may
be interest at that time for a combination bus and bus shelter advertising agreement.
Omnitrans does not anticipate building additional shelters during this period, but if they do, or if
they reconstruct any of the current shelters, all work is subject to approval by the City. The
agreement provides the City with two advertising panels for community service announcements.
Omnitrans has always allowed additional space if needed when not in use.
A total of eleven cities are participating in the in the program with Omnitrans. All of which have
been participating since the program's inception.
Financial Impact:
None.
Recommendation:
Adopt Resolution.
