Council adopts SMART municipal and community credits for local transit service
Summary
Richmond City Council approved a resolution allocating SMART municipal and community credits to support Richmond Lehi EMS’s community transit service.
Richmond City Council adopted a resolution to provide state-authorized SMART (Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation) municipal and community transit credits to support local community transit operations.
Council considered Resolution 2025-1, which would allocate municipal and community SMART credits to Richmond Lehi EMS to aid its community transit service. A motion to adopt the resolution — described in the meeting as assigning municipal credits and $14,760 in community credits to Richmond Lehi EMS — passed by voice vote.
Council members and staff praised the transit service during discussion, noting the program’s role in enabling residents to reach medical appointments and groceries as the community has grown. City staff told the council the arrangement is similar to prior years and that Richmond Lehi EMS administers the local transit service using the transferred credits.
The motion passed by voice vote; no numerical roll-call totals were recorded in the meeting minutes shared in the transcript.
