DISCUSSION
The Transportation Program is a needed and vital service to seniors who are unable to drive, but
still live in their own homes. Our Senior Center continues to experience an increased demand for
transportation services in the community. The OASIS Senior Center registers approximately 20 to
30 new clients each month, and is at, or above, full capacity with the current client load. In addition,
requests for transportation have been denied or have had to use office staff to transport clients
when a medical emergency occurs. Through a donation from the Friends of OASIS, staff proposes
an increase in service from 3 to 4 vans operating in this program. The Friends donation would fund
an additional driver who will operate a van already in the City's possession.
On February 28, 2005, the Friends of OASIS Board of Directors voted to financially support the
expansion of the Transportation Program by:
1. Funding the cost of an additional van driver through the end of FY 2004/05 at $16,600
2. Funding the cost to of expansion through FY 2005/06 at $50,000 for an additional van driver
and increased maintenance and operational costs.
The Friends of OASIS have expressed their intention to financially support this expansion of the
Transportation Program each year here after. These funds will allow us to hire one new driver and
will cover the additional cost for gas.
