County transit budget outlines 14-passenger buses and federal/state reimbursement splits
A presenter described transit fleet and funding details during the budget discussion, saying the county’s 14-passenger buses are configured to accommodate two wheelchairs and 12 passenger seats. The presenter characterized the vehicles as "overkill" for some routes and said the county has three such buses on its fleet.

The presenter explained how federal and state reimbursements apply to nonoperating transit services (accounts such as accounting staff, facility lease, insurance, technology, marketing and contracted services): those nonoperating services are reimbursed 80% by the federal government, 10% by the state and require a 10% local match from the county. For certain dispatcher-related items, the presenter said the reimbursement split is 50% federal, 25% state and 25% county.

The presenter said some items in the state budget are categorized differently than county accounting categories and that the information provided attempts to reconcile the two systems. No formal procurement action for buses is recorded in the transcript excerpt provided; the item was framed as budgetary classification and reimbursement explanation for planning purposes.
