On September 27, 2022, the Board of Directors (Board) of Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) approved DART's Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 budget, which included $214.3 million in distributions of DART revenue to the Service Area Cities. Additionally, on October 25, 2022, the DART Board accepted $19.7 million from the Regional Transportation Council (RTC) and the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG). This additional funding allowed DART to maximize the benefits to each Service Area City by distributing the most advantageous allocation, whether sales tax or population. The Town of Addison's allocation of $4.411 million was calculated based on sales taxes collected in Fiscal Years 2021 and 2022.
On November 15, 2022, the DART Board approved an interlocal agreement (ILA) with DART Service Area Cities for allocation of funds for public transportation improvements. The ILA includes information regarding Addison's obligations, project eligibility, and terms for accepting the funding.
