RENO COUNTY COMMISSION 206 West First Avenue Hutchinson, Kansas 67501 620-694-2929 October 19, 2018 To Whom It May Concern: I understand that the Training and Evaluation Center of Hutchinson, Inc. (TECH) is seeking a grant from the Kansas Department of Transportation for the acquisition of two lift-equipped buses to assist in serving client transportation needs in Reno County. The buses will transport TECH clients to a variety of worksites, social programs, community activities, medical appointments, shopping and entertainment opportunities. Our county bus system, R-CAT, is helpful to some clients but does not operate on holidays, Sundays and during hours after 7 p.m. In addition, a client s severity of disability may prevent them from riding on R-CAT vans or busses. Because of transportation furnished by TECH, their clients are able to be much more independent and enjoy the opportunity of inclusion in activities and events that otherwise would not be possible. The buses are being sought to assure that needed transportation remains available. Since the county is only able to assist in limited ways, we urge K-DOT s approval of the requested minivan. The Reno County Commission gave unanimous approval to this support at their regular meeting on October 19, 2018. TECH is a highly respected, highly recognized service organization in Hutchinson that has an excellent record of community service to its residents.
