Dear Kevin, That would probably be a good idea, but some may think something like you are stating, might be slanted. I actually believe Star Metro understands the problems very well; it is the other city departments who need to get on the same page to get the APS's, sidewalks, better lighting, etc., and we should probably make our views known by addressing the city commissioners, Mayor Marks, city manager, etc. Darla ----- Original Message ----- From: daviska9 To: tabi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, November 08, 2009 1:09 PM Subject: [tabi] Bringing all the issues together Good Afternoon All, I have been monitoring the discussions for and against NOVA 2010, first through Laurie, and now I have joined TABI. I wonder if some of you would be willing to help me get all of the points, both pro and con, put together in one posting. I will then forward that to the Transportation Advisory Committee(TAC), of which I am a part. The TAC is very interested in the safety issues involved, and have been reviewing these even before NOVA 2010 was presented to us. We are a part of the city commission, and not a part of StarMetro. We are due to make a recommendation one way or the other to the commission after the first of the year, and I want to make sure all of the information that can be is put on the table. I may not be perfect, but I am trying to be neutral and represent the interests if the visually impaired on the TAC. You should know that the new system provides Laurie and I with some VERY positive benefits. That interest is only one piece that I present to the TAC. If you are willing, a consolidated list of your views would be very helpful to me. Let me know what you think. There is a little known "be attitude" Blessed be the flexible, for they will bend and not breakJ. Hope to hear from you all soon Kevin Davis
