Consultations:

Natasha Couvillon, Manager of Performance Measurement & Financial Administration, City of Windsor

Shelby Askin Hagar, City Solicitor and Corporate Leader, Economic Development and Public Safety, City of Windsor

Conclusion:

Handi-Transit provides a very important, specialized transportation service to residents in our community who, due to a disability that affects their mobility, are unable to use conventional transit. Administration recommends entering into an Agreement with Handi-Transit for the provision of Specialized Transit Services in Windsor. Further, it is recommended that the term of the agreement be for three (3) years and that a service review be undertaken after three (3) years.
