The purpose of this Manual is to provide assistance and guidance in the design and evaluation of procedures which can be used to apportion these costs of rural public transportation among participating towns and human service agencies. Each procedure consists of an equation or formula which arrives at assessments or charges for services based on the application of one more variables. Examples of such variables include: population, property valuation, vehicle miles, vehicle hours, passenger trips, and passenger miles. Each variable is examined in terms of the particular characteristic or quality which it is designed to measure. Procedures to apportion or allocate the costs of rural public transportation may be formulated using one or more of these component variables, in various combinations, and with varying results.
