The bus system is ok with me also. I am not saying it can't be improved. In order to make things better there must be change. It would seem to me people do not like change.
It takes me about an hour to get from my apartment to the Lighthouse on Cedar Center cort. I have not yet seen any time table for the NOVA 2010 plan so I would have a compairson..

Hmm, this is the first I have heard anyone on this list say they were happywith the bus program. Sounds like you are the minority of the minority.

Although I was not at the meeting last night, I have been working hard on getting this change to happen. Sally and myself too have had a difference of opinion of some of our friends, but all and all I think it is a good thing and will make getting across town so much easier.

You knew the concerns of the minority which is in this case is the (Blind community) and you did not stand up and represent us by voting NO! You know there is a saying, Don't forget the little man! We don't ask for much just a bone with some meat lefton it every once in awhile! Some times you do what is right not what everyone else wants you to do. The Right thing to do this case was to vote NO!Again don't hate you but very disappointed in you. Yes by the way I say ifwe can get just Saturday this is a start. But by know means the end. Just more of my thoughts.

Too many things in my life have made me a bit too sensitive. Look, you all should know that the measure passed the TAC unanimously. I know that some of you were hoping I would vote no, and those people probably hate me and will never talk to me again. As those present at the meeting can tell you, I have been asking toughquestions. Well, believe it or not, I got some good responses. StarMetrowent out and got the city engineers involved, and tonight we, the TAC, were told that the majority of the safety features would be brought on linebefore the NOVA 2010 plan comes on line. Even to the extent that 15 to 18of the audible signals will be set up. Also, I brought up putting "NO RIGHT ON RED" designations at all of the transfer points. No solid answer there, but they did say they would look into what they could do. I can say this much for the NOVA 2010 process, that a year ago I don't think the cityengineers would have been as open to working with mass transit as they aretoday. This process has got more people working together than ever before. Finally, I am very concerned that if we do not start making some changes, even the unpopular ones, towards decentralizing the bus system, that we will be left with a bus system in a few years that serves the students and not much else. What I don't want to do, is stop here. Mr. Garrison said to me, after being asked, that this is not an end to the changes, but a beginning. Your comments that Bruce Weaver and I took to the TAC and StarMetro, fueled the process of getting the city engineers involved. Now, keep the pressure on to continue to improve safety at all intersections. Maybe we can beat the Dangerous by design label Tallahassee has been stamped with, but we have a long way to go. Do not give up on me, I am trying the best I know, to not give up on you. Kevin Davis By the way, I found out that the implementation may be delayed yet even longer than December of this year by as much as three to eight months. ________________________________ From: tabi-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:tabi-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Sila Miller Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2010 9:13 PM To: tabi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [tabi] Re: Saturday Mall ideaSorry if we were vicious, Kevin.
