DISCUSSION The Parks, Recreation and Community Services Agency (PRCSA) provides a full scope of senior services, including health and fitness classes, volunteer opportunities, medical and legal consultations, and home delivered and on-site meal programs. Additionally, PRCSA arranges daily transportation services between Senior's homes and the City's Senior Centers including daily shopping trips and monthly excursions to local venues. The vehicles make approximately 2,000 round trips a month and are specially designed to accommodate individuals with disabilities. On July 6, 2009, the City Council awarded a contract to JFK Transportation Company for a one-year period, with provisions for four one-year renewals. JFK Transportation Company, a Santa Ana vendor, has performed satisfactorily during the past contract period; however the vendor has requested a five percent increase to cover the higher cost of fuel after holding their pricing for two years. Staff recommends the second renewal of the contract. The annual amount is based upon past usage and staff's projection for the next year.
