The service is operated by a private contractor and certain local taxi/livery companies may be part of the transit network.

Sounds great; right? Think about who pay’s all the costs because it’s you the taxpayer. The Federal Department Of Transportation (DOT) every 5 years sends millions to every state DOT for the purpose of starting government transit systems. This seed money is used to initiate a trial transit system for 2-3 years as with PV’s YAV. The idea is that after three years the public will “demand” it continue and then a new or increased tax needs to cover the costs. In 2013 Orange County, CA transit after over 30 years the taxpayers were still paying over 50% of the costs. The PV mayor and council need to be replaced by community fiscal responsive people. Mayor Palgida in particular is irresponsible regarding our library operation and unrestricted growth as well as this growth of government.
I took your advice, and sent a nasty email, but it turns out there is no “Mayor Palgida”, however there is a Mayor Palguta. Just thought you wanted to know…
