City to finance much of TransIT system
Frederick County commissioners won a commitment from Frederick city to fund a sizable portion of the TransIT bus system, with the new mayor and aldermen agreeing to pay about 130000 next fiscal year. The county share remains at least 115322, and total operating costs for 19 vehicles are projected above 890000 due to ADA requirements and potential service expansion. Federal and state grants cover part of the cost, but uncertain funding may force both governments to cover remaining expenses.
