County transit plan eyed for 1981 funding
County study on public transportation for Santa Barbara County outlines a 20 year capital plan totaling over 34 million for the south coast and 2.4 million for Lompoc with rising operating costs to 1994. Lompoc would gain a two vehicle depot system in 1976 and a jitney service in 1977 along with a commuter link to Vandenberg AFB. Local funding is minimal until 1981 when taxpayers face a 155000 shortfall. federal grants and fare revenues cover most costs. The analysis notes current county traffic and trips, arguing for immediate action.
