Text

(a)
Centralized administration of consolidated social service transportation services shall utilize, to the maximum extent possible, existing public and private administrative capabilities and expertise. Utilization of existing administrative capabilities and expertise shall not require employment of those public and private administrative personnel nor shall it preclude any consolidated agency from developing a necessary administrative organization.

Rescinding or eliminating funding for consolidated services by any participating agency shall require cancellation of service to the agency’s consumers by the consolidated agency. Cancellation of the service shall not be required if rescission or elimination of funding occurs because of a program change with respect to the source of funding.

Consolidation of social service transportation services shall, to the maximum extent possible, utilize existing agency operating and maintenance personnel and expertise. Effective use of employees of
participating agencies shall be achieved without mandating that the employees become directly employed by the designated consolidated agency.
