The CATS Finance and Executive Committee today recommended that the public transit agency award a contract to manage the system—estimated to be worth $1.2 million to $1.4 million—to MV Transportation. The Fairfield, Calif.-based firm was one of two in the running for the contract, with the other being Baton Rouge-based Reliant Transportation. Both companies presented their proposals to the selection committee last week. MV Transportation operates 200 transit systems in 28 states and two foreign countries. Also today, the CATS committee is considering whether or not to recommend that Interim CEO Bob Mirabito be hired as the full-time CEO and have his contract renewed through the end of 2014.
