556 Task 1: Demand Estimates Using the process set forth in the original scope of services, Task 4 - Needs Analysis and Demand Estimates, CGA will determine the demand for transportation services among the elderly, low income, handicapped, and balance of the population throughout Cabarrus County outside of the Kanlacon Area. This material will be added to Chapter 4, Demand Estimation (see Interim Repart #2). In order to carry out this task, the Cabarrus County Planning Commission will supply the required census data, census tract maps, and any additional information required. This task will include a revision of the comparison between projected demand and existing services to reflect the change associated with the service area involved and the volume of projected transportation need and demand. Task 2: Service Alternatives Service alternatives briefly sketched in Interim Report #2 will be developed in greater detail and revised to set forth the volume of demand these alternatives would meet and at what cost. It is recognized that Cabarrus County has already opted for initiation of a ride-share match program and human service agency coordination. As a result, only a minimal effort will be expended in re-addressing other alternatives, unless the added demand figures from rural Cabarrus County suggest consideration of new or different alternatives. Assuming the already selected alternative set (ride sharing program and coordinated human service agency operations), CGA recognizes that the definition of organizational alternatives (Task 6 of the original scope) and the identification of legal, financial, and administrative constraints (Task 7 of the original scope) will require very limited effort. As a result, these items will be addressed only briefly under Task 9, Definition of Operational Plan and Task 11, Implement~n Plan of the original scope. This reduction of effort from the original scope and contract agreement makes it possible to assume responsibility for meeting North Carolina DOT's TDP requirements at the extremely low cost figure quoted for this amendment. Task 3: Reporting CGA will revise its reporting, to date, to accommodate the dual purpose of the study process (recommendations for services and related implementation activities as they affect both the Kanlacon Urban Area and the balance of Cabarrus County) and complete its reporting in a similar fashion. This will require revision of Chapters ii 2, 4, and 6 in the current interim report; and the refinement and development of the selected alternatives or options on the basis of those figures that incorporate both the areas of Cabarrus County outside of the Kanlacon Area and within the Kanlacon Area. A final report, prepared in draft form, will be submitted initially in five copies. Once comments have been reviewed, a maximum of 20 copies of a final report will be delivered. Scope Revision Costing To accomplish the revisions in scope set forth above will require the following manhours, by position. Costs associated with a final trip to Concord to present the final report are accommodated in the original contract agreement.
