    The document summarizes plans for a new paratransit facility that will consolidate paratransit operations onto VIA's main campus. A former K-mart building acquired for $8 million will be renovated and repurposed for the new facility using a $23 million budget, with funding from federal, state, and local sources. The project aims to improve efficiency, communication, and vehicle movement. A design-build approach was used, and a contractor has been selected to complete construction by August 2021, with the facility becoming operational in October 2021.
