unless otherwise noted, are performed at no cost to DART and do not entitle the successful bidder to any

DBE’s, the bidder agrees to take affirmative action to the greatest extent practicable including good faith
effort to identify qualified DBE firms for supplies and services to this bid. Failure by the Contractor,
subrecipient, or subcontractor to carry out these requirements is a material breach of the contract,

other remedy as DART deems appropriate.

DBE Liaison Officer on all payments made to DBE subcontractors. Further, the contractor shall

payment. The prime contractor understands that failure to report quarterly to the DART DBE
Liaison Officer may result in the termination of this contract or such other remedy as DART
deems appropriate.
D) DART MONITORING AND REPORTING.
The prime contractor understands that DART will bring to the attention of the Department of
Transportation any false, fraudulent, or dishonest conduct in connection with the program, so that
DOT can take the steps (e.g. referral to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution, referral to
FY16-R-012
38
the DOT inspector General, action under suspension and debarment of Program Fraud or Civil
Penalties rules) provided in 26.109. The prime contractor understands that DART will consider similar
action under their own legal authorities, including responsibility determinations in future contracts.

contractor which are directly pertinent to this contract, for the purposes of making audits,
examinations, excerpts and transcriptions.

The contractor agrees to permit any of the foregoing parties to reproduce by any means whatsoever
or to copy excerpts and transcriptions as reasonably needed.

contract for a period of not less than three years after the date of termination or expiration of this
contract, except in the event of litigation or settlement of claims arising from the performance of this
contract, in which case Contractor agrees to maintain same until DART, the FTA Administrator, the
U.S. Secretary of Transportation, the Comptroller General of the United States, or any of their duly
authorized representatives have disposed of all such litigation, appeals, claims or exceptions related
thereto. Reference 49 CFR 18.39(i)(11).

subcontract financed in whole or in part with federal assistance provided by FTA. It is further
agreed that the clause shall not be modified, except to identify the subcontractor who will be
subject to its provisions.

including without limitation those listed directly or by reference in the Master Agreement between DART
and FTA, as they may be amended or promulgated from time to time during the term of this contract.

be deemed to control in the event of a conflict with other provisions contained in this Agreement. The
contractor shall not perform any act, fail to perform any act, or refuse to comply with any DART requests
which would cause DART to be in violation of the FTA terms and conditions.

Scope:
DART Employees and Contractors
Responsible Department:
Engagement
Effective Date:
January 5, 2016
Approved By:
DART Commission
The Des Moines Regional Transit Authority (“DART”) is a regional transit system created under
section 28M of the Code of the State of Iowa. DART owns and operates buses, bus shelters, a
garage and other properties (collectively referred to as “transit facilities”) in conjunction with its
regional transit system. It is in the public interest to make advertising space available on certain
designated transit facilities to generate revenue and help fund the operation of the regional
transit system.
I. PURPOSE
1.01
Nonpublic Forum; Commercial / Proprietary Functions. DART will make space on its transit
facilities available for limited types of advertising (“Permitted Advertising”). By allowing limited
types of advertising on or within its buses and/or bus shelters, DART does not intend to create a
public forum for public discourse or expressive activity, or to provide a forum for all types of
advertisements. The display of Permitted Advertising on designated transit facilities is intended
only to supplement fare revenue, tax proceeds and other income that fund the regional transit
system.
1.02
Certain Excluded Advertising. DART will not accept for display or play through audio on its
transit facilities the types of advertising defined in Section 2.01 of these policies and
standards (“Excluded Advertising”). By not accepting Excluded Advertising, DART’
intention is to:
(a) maintain a professional advertising environment that maximizes advertising revenues
and minimizes interference or disruption of the commercial aspects of its regional
transit system;
(b) maintain and portray an image of neutrality on political matters and other
noncommercial issues that may be the subject of public debate and concern;
(c) protect passengers, employees and DART transit facilities from harm or damage that
can result from some individual’s reactions to political or controversial materials; and
(d) avoid any decrease in transit ridership.
1.03
Limits on Permitted Advertising. Placing reasonable limits on Permitted Advertising
displayed or played on its transit facilities will enable DART to:
(a) avoid subjecting its passengers and other members of the public to material that may
discourage them from using regional transit services;
(b) maintain an image of professionalism and decorum;
FY16-R-012
57
(c) avoid displaying material that is not suitable for viewing by minors who ride on DART
Transit buses or those individuals whose neighborhoods are served by DART Transit bus
routes; and
(d) maximize revenues by attracting and maintaining the patronage of passengers.
II. ADVERTISING POLICIES
2.01
Excluded Advertising. For the purposes of these policies and standards, the advertising
described in this Section 2.01 is “Excluded Advertising.” DART will not accept the following
Excluded Advertising for display, posting or placement on or within its buses, or other transit
facilities:
(a) Alcoholic Beverages. DART will not accept audio or display advertisements and
images soliciting or promoting the sale or use of alcoholic beverages.
(b) Tobacco Products. DART will not accept audio or display advertisements and images
soliciting or promoting the sale or use of tobacco products including, but not limited
to, cigarettes, cigars, and smokeless tobacco.
(c) Advertisements Affecting Image or Operation. DART will not accept audio or display
advertisements and images that threaten or adversely affect: the public image of
DART; DART’S ability to operate its transit facilities; or DART’S ability to attract and
maintain the patronage of passengers.
2.02
Permitted Advertising. Subject to the viewpoint-neutral standards contained in Section
3.01 of these policies and standards, DART will accept “Permitted Advertising” for play,
display, or placement on designated DART transit facilities. For the purposes of these
policies, “Permitted Advertising” is advertising that:
(a) Does not qualify as Excluded Advertising under Section 2.01.
(b) Generally relates to the economic interests of the advertiser and its audience.
(c) Includes advertising delivered through electronic, audio, and printed media.
Advertising defined in Section 3.02 and 3.03 also is Permitted Advertising.
2.03
Prohibitions on Literature or Product Distribution and Leafleting. DART’S purpose in
operating a regional transit system is to meet the public’s need for efficient, effective and
safe public transportation. DART transit facilities are not intended to be public forums for
public discourse or expressive activity. Literature or product distributions, leafleting and
similar activities can disrupt or delay passengers who are boarding and exiting buses and
other transit vehicles, distract passengers, distract bus operators, cause maintenance
issues, and otherwise create safety issues for passengers, operators and surrounding traffic.
Accordingly, political campaign activities, distribution of political or issues campaign
literature, leafleting, and other informational or campaign activities are prohibited within
DART transit buses or other transit vehicles and within DART bus shelters. Notwithstanding
the policies that allow the play or display of Permitted Advertising on designated DART
Transit facilities, nothing in these policies or standards authorizes or permits advertisers to
FY16-R-012
58
distribute literature, leaflets, coupons, products, samples or other items within DART transit
buses and shelters.
On a limited basis and in conjunction with a “partnering” opportunity approved by DART,
DART may allow an advertiser to distribute items on or within DART Transit facilities. Any
distribution of literature, leaflets, coupons, products, samples or other items must be preapproved by DART and must comply strictly with terms and conditions established by
DART.
III. ADVERTISING STANDARDS AND RESTRICTIONS
3.01

the following categories:
(a) False, Misleading, Deceptive or Disrespectful Advertising. Advertising or any material
