Given the size and relative efficiency of the current system, theprimarysavingswouldlikelybeinreducedbusdrivercompensationandbenefits. While there are significant legacy costs associated with personnel costs, this may be an option worth pursuing, assuming no imminent decisions on the recommendations ofthe OLO Report, Achieving a Structurally Balanced Budget in Montgomery County. Transit Services The issue o f transit services raised the following questions regarding cost savings: 1. What savings can be achieved through privatizing the County Ride On system's small-bus operation? 2. What are the cost-savings from eliminating the Kids Ride Free and the Full Seniors/DisabledRide Free programs? 3. What are the cost-savings from leasing vs. purchasing Ride On buses? 4. What is the lost revenue from the C-Pass, the County Employees-Ride-Free-On-Ride On program? 5. How many suburban bus services in the Washington metropolitan area are operated by contractors? 6. What savings would accrue from contracting out the personnel component - rather than other operating expenses - o f Ride On bus service? 7. Has the County considered designing Ride On bus routes to reduce the use of Metrobus? After receiving responses to these questions, the ORC concluded that significant savings are not attainable. Many ofthe smaller savings that could be realized have been given consideration in the past by the County and are generally outside the scope ofthe ORC's work. Key Questions Addressed: 1. What savings can be achieved through privatizing Ride On's small bus service? The small bus fleet that operates in those parts ofthe County with little ridership or in areas that are not easily accessible by Ride On was privatized a few years ago. However, due to rider complaints, the privatized operation and maintenance ofthe small bus fleet was returned in-house and has been operated fully by the County since March 2008. This increased the annualcostofoperatingthesmallbusprogramby$2.1million. Someofthisincrease, though, was to provide a higher level ofmaintenance than had been provided by the contractors. Historically, contract bus operators tend to skimp on equipment maintenance. 2.
