Commissioner Rich said people will be paying for service, and she asked how this fits <br /> in. Bret Martin said there is a revenue line in the budget for fares. He said payments will <br /> go into that revenue account. <br /> Commissioner Rich said this looks like a consistent service over the 5 years, and she <br /> asked if it is not estimated that more people will take advantage of it over time. <br /> Bret Martin said yes. He said this is a guess. <br /> Commissioner Rich asked if this will be brought back to the Board of County <br /> Commissioners for further discussion if the ridership does increase. <br /> Bonnie Hammersley said these are just projections over a 5 year period; however the <br /> numbers will be monitored annually through the budget process and adjustments will be made <br /> as needed. <br /> Commission Rich asked if adjustments will always come out of the half cent sales tax <br /> for operations. <br /> Bonnie Hammersley said yes. <br /> John Roberts referred to Commissioner Price's question. He said the appeal process is <br /> an administrative process, and if appeal is denied the person would have access to further <br /> appeal hearings through the office of civil rights. <br /> PUBLIC COMMENT: <br /> Alex Castro, Jr. is from the Bingham Township. He said he is vice-chair of the Aging <br /> Advisory Board, and vice-chair of the OUTBoard. He said this item has not yet come before <br /> the OUTBoard. He said his comments are personal, and they do not reflect the opinions of the <br /> opinions of the two boards. <br /> He read from the following submitted written comments: <br /> The proposed service expansion is a very positive step for the rural communities of Orange <br /> County. However, rural residents are not accustomed to riding a transit bus and marketing <br /> efforts are needed to increase ridership rapidly and ensure the success of an expanded <br /> Orange Public Transit service. Some suggestions: <br /> 1. Branding: Chapel Hill Transit has EZ Rider and Triangle Transit uses Flex Rider. Triangle <br /> Transit is also using GO Triangle. Orange Bus is vague and there should be a catchy name <br /> given to OPT to provide instant recognition. <br /> 2. A simple how to use the bus guide needs to be developed, made available on-line and in <br /> written form on each bus. On each bus there should be printed route schedules in a case <br /> mounted in a readily accessible location on the bus. A map showing the routes should also <br /> be posted on the bus. These schedules and guides should be widely distributed to <br /> congregations, key retail outlets and the Sportsplex/Central Orange Senior Center. Service <br /> changes should be forwarded to the Orange County Public Relations Director for on-line <br /> distribution to County residents. <br /> 3. Fixed route bus stops should have a posted sign indicating the name of the stop and a <br /> route map showing the times the bus arrives at the stop. Each stop should have a simple <br /> shelter that provides cover from the elements for waiting riders. Partnership with sponsors <br /> in exchange for simple acknowledgements of the sponsors should be pursued. A good start <br /> would be to provide shelters at the Wal-Mart in Hampton Pointe, the new UNC Hospital, and <br /> Durham Tech Community College Campus. <br />
