73-F - Local coordination of rural public transportation services.

§ 73-f. Local  coordination  of  rural public transportation services.
  Transportation services funded under this article  must  be  coordinated
  with  transportation  services  funded by other federal, state and local
  sources.  Public,  private,  and  private  non-profit  corporations   or
  organizations  applying  for or receiving federal, state or local aid in
  order to provide or  contract  for  public  transportation  services  or
  transportation  to  the  general public and specific clientele groups in
  rural counties, shall coordinate and  integrate  funding  and  resulting
  services,  to the maximum extent possible, with services coordinators in
  said counties in accordance with this article.  No  rural  county  shall
  qualify for aid or assistance authorized pursuant to this article unless
  said  county shall first appoint a services coordinator.  An individual,
  agency or corporation may be designated a services  coordinator  by  the
  county  executive,  if  any,  or  the county legislative body in a rural
  county in accordance with rules promulgated by  the  commissioner  which
  rules   shall   establish   criteria   for   selecting  and  terminating
  coordinators. A rural county may terminate the services  of  a  services
  coordinator at any time following established county procedures for same
  and  may change its designation of a services coordinator at any time in
  accordance with this  article.  A  rural  county's  designated  services
  coordinator  may  request,  from  public  and private agencies receiving
  federal, state or local aid in that county, information or data  related
  to   transportation   services,  facilities,  equipment,  usage,  costs,
  revenues and funds as he or she may deem necessary for the  preparation,
  revision, updating and implementation of the county's coordinated public
  transportation  service  plan.   The extent to which such information is
  provided by agencies wishing  to  participate  in  the  program  may  be
  considered by the department in the awarding of grants.
