III. BACKGROUND (cont'd)
3 . Public transportation has been explored and at this
time it appears that public transportation will not
be able to handle either .the volume of clients or
frequency of trips needed to efficiently facilitate
transportation to and from 40 Muir Road.
4. The Social Service Department is seeking a
transportation resource that can provide direct
access to 40 Muir Road, Martinez for GA clients in
East and West County. This transportation resource
can be scheduled to accommodate the route, volume,
departure and arrival times to best meet the needs
of GA clients and the Social Service Department.
5. The Social Service Department may not be able to
issue and complete the Request for Proposal process
by January 1, 1993 . In the event that it is not
possible to have a contract for service in place at
that time, the Department will enter into a
temporary contract up to three months, based on
this Board Order.
