The Salem Area Mass Transit District Board of Directors formed the Statewide Transportation Improvement Fund Advisory Committee (“STIFAC”) pursuant to Oregon law for the purpose of advising and assisting the District in carrying out the purposes of the Statewide Transportation Improvement Fund (“STIF”). The STIF was created with the passage of House Bill 2017 in the 2017 Legislative Session.
2025-2027 STIF Formula applications are now open. Applications are due October 25th, 2024. Additional information about the application process can be found in the 2025-27 Statewide Transportation Improvement Fund Program Application Instructions.
The STIF Formula 2025-2027 subrecipient application can be found here.
Subrecipients are eligible to receive STIF Formula funding through their Qualified Entity* by submitting project proposals for consideration by the Qualified Entity’s STIFAC. Subrecipients may be Public Transportation Service Providers, which are defined in the STIF Administrative rules to include cities, counties, special districts, intergovernmental entities, or any other political subdivision or municipal or public corporation that provides public transportation services.
However, it is not required that an entity be a Public Transportation Service Provider to be eligible to receive STIF Formula funding as a subrecipient. Other potential subrecipients include but are not limited to nonprofits, private for-profits, or public entities.
*A Qualified Entity is one of the following: 1) a county in which no part of a Mass Transit District or Transportation District exists, 2) a Mass Transit District, 3) a Transportation District, or 4) an Indian Tribe. Salem Area Mass Transit District (SAMTD) is the Mass Transit District in Marion and Polk Counties and therefore serves as the Qualified Entity for these counties.
