Agenda Item
Resolution - Public Transit Services:
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Second Amendment to the Ticket Reseller Agreement between the City of Lubbock and FlixBus, Inc., for Greyhound operations services to be rendered by Citibus.
Item Summary
The Second Amendment to the ticket reseller agreement is made effective as of January 1, 2024. The Parties wish to amend the Agreement to add terms under which an Agency Fee will be charged to customers as of the effective date and the Agency Fee will be charged per booking as follows:
Bookings at the counter - $4/Booking Agency Fee
Bookings at a kiosk - $1/Booking Agency Fee
The Agreement is amended as follows:
Section 7.1, currently reads as follows:
“For each Booking, FlixBus shall pay the Reseller a commission equal to 10% of the Gross Sales Revenue (the “Commission”). “Gross Sales Revenue” means the Reseller Rate collected by the Reseller for each Booking including any applicable sales tax and Ancillaries but net of any discount, all whether charged by Reseller or FlixBus and shall not include any amounts that are refunded to a customer for any reason. “Ancillaries” as defined herein shall include only those additional services purchased by customers related to their on-board travel such as additional baggage fees, bicycle transportation fees and reserved seating. Commission shall not be paid on any booking or service fees or any other fees which may be charged by FlixBus. FlixBus may offer a higher commission for limited periods as a special reward or incentive.” (Emphasis added)
II. The italicized language will be amended by adding the following clause at the end of the current sentence, as indicated in bold below:
Commission will not be paid on any booking or service fees or any other fees which may be charged by FlixBus
,
except that the Commission shall be paid on the Agency Fee.
III. All other terms and conditions of the Agreement and terms defined therein not specifically amended, will remain in full force and effect.
Fiscal Impact
The Second Amendment to the Ticket Reseller Agreement between the City of Lubbock and FlixBus will have no fiscal impact.
