Narrative
The Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities program (Section 5310)
provides funds to improve mobility for seniors and individuals with disabilities by removing
barriers to transportation service and expanding transportation mobility options. The DCHC
MPO is the Designated Recipient of the funds for the Durham UZA and distributes the funds
to eligible sub-recipients through a competitive selection process every other year. A Call
for Projects was conducted for $529,150 (in federal funds) which was the total funding
apportioned to the Durham UZA for FFY2019 and FFY2020. Applications were reviewed by
a staff, and the recommended Program of Projects (PoP) is attached. Once
the PoP is approved by the Board, LPA staff will begin the grant application process.
