Comprehensive Transit Service Plan <br /> EVERETT TRANSIT Executive Summary <br /> Paratransit van replacement is assumed to take place after 7 years of service, with <br /> the same Federal funding assumptions. <br /> Capital Facilities <br /> Capital expenditures also contain an allowance for the development and <br /> construction of a new North Everett Transfer Station at Everett Community College <br /> and for the placement of up to an additional twenty-five passenger shelters at major <br /> transfer points and loading zones system-wide. <br /> The anticipated revenues and expenses associated with recommended actions are <br /> summarized in Figure 9. <br /> $30,000000 ---- - -- - - - ' <br /> x$25,000,000 <br /> w <br /> c $20,000,000 ---- ---- --- --- - <br /> $15,000,000 <br /> $10,000,000 <br /> $5,000,000 - <br /> I c' <br /> Q $0 <br /> °Expenses°Revenues <br /> Figure 9:Projected Program Revenues and Expenses,2003-2013 <br /> Summary <br /> The recommendations of the Everett Transit Comprehensive Service Plan Update <br /> reflect an expanded role for Everett Transit in the provision of transportation <br /> services to the Everett community. These are due to the City of Everett's position <br /> within a larger metropolitan area and reflective of the expanded needs of the <br /> Everett citizenry as a result of that position. <br /> The recommended actions will require the application of additional funding for public <br /> transportation within the City. These have been addressed in the financial program <br /> through both a general fare increase as well as an increase in the local sales tax <br /> assessment. <br /> Everett Transit is already providing a higher quality of transit service than the <br /> majority of the fifteen peer agencies serving areas of similar population, reflecting <br /> the enhanced level of transportation needs and expectations characteristic of a more <br /> highly-developed metropolitan area; and ET will need to continue to apply additional <br /> resources to meet anticipated future service and program requirements and <br /> expectations. <br /> The implementation of recommended programs and services will propel Everett <br /> Transit into a role of a more regional provider of programs and services, in <br /> conjunction with Community Transit and Sound Transit, than in the past. This is <br /> reflective of the desires and expectations of Everett residents as expressed during <br /> the course of this project. <br /> Perteet Engineering,Inc. Page xxiv <br />
