Accept federal grant for 7 new paratransit vehicles
In Plain English
The city applies for Federal Transit Administration funding to replace aging paratransit vehicles that serve disabled residents and seniors. These specialized vehicles provide door-to-door transportation for people who cannot use regular bus service. If approved, the federal government covers most vehicle costs while the city pays a small matching portion.
