RESOLUTION 2018-IGA-RTA-LST-MILE-R-1707
A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION
OF AN INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE VILLAGE OF OAK BROOK AND
THE REGIONAL TRANSPORATION AUTHORITY
REGARDING “LAST-MILE SERVICES”
WHEREAS, the Regional Transportation Authority (“RTA”) has approached the Village of Oak
Brook with regards to a program which is in use in other municipalities providing transportation from RTA
Train Stations a distance of some miles to locations utilized by RTA train riders either to work or to
purchase goods; and
WHEREAS, the Village of Oak Brook (“Village”) has many individuals who work on a daily or
regular basis within the Village and who utilize the RTA to come as close to the Village as possible; and
WHEREAS, the RTA believes that ridership increases and benefits can come to municipalities if
there is a bus service available for what is referred to as “last-mile services” to easily transport such
individuals to their destination from the train station to the Village; and
WHEREAS, the RTA has discussed this matter in some detail with business entities and
organizations within the Village which have agreed that such services would be beneficial and are
prepared to pay for a portion of those services; and
WHEREAS, the proposal made to the Village is that it would enter into a contract with an entity
which would provide such last-mile services, bus transportation which would be paid for by funds coming
from the RTA and from local Oak Brook business interests; and
WHEREAS, an Intergovernmental Agreement has been prepared between the RTA and the
Village which details the manner in which this program would take place; and
WHEREAS, the Village intends that in entering into an Agreement with a provider of such bus
services, it would be acknowledged in that Agreement that the payment for such services would come
from the RTA and from various business interests within the Village and not from the funds of the Village
itself; and
WHEREAS, in order to gain the substantial funds from the RTA, an Intergovernmental Agreement
dealing with what is hoped to be a one or two-year experiment for this program has been developed.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PRESIDENT AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF
THE VILLAGE OF OAK BROOK, DU PAGE AND COOK COUNTIES, ILLINOIS, as follows:
Section 1: The Village President or the Village Manager are hereby authorized to execute
an Intergovernmental Agreement between the Regional Transportation Authority and the Village of Oak
Brook in substantially the form attached to and made a part of this Resolution as Exhibit A.
Section 2: Pursuant to the Intergovernmental Agreement, the Village shall seek proposals
from persons or entities prepared to provide the “last-mile services” as are described within the
Agreement. That Contract with a transportation supplier, which is intended to be fully paid for by funds to
be received from the RTA and from business entities within the Village of Oak Brook, shall come before
the Village Board for its approval.
Section 3: This Resolution shall be in full force and effect from and after its passage and
approval by the Village President.
