County subsidizes 25 cent bus fares for RTD and six lines
The Board of Supervisors approved year round subsidies for 25 cent bus fares on RTD and six municipal lines, including Long Beach. Dissenting Supervisor Schabarum warned the move could blunt support for the proposed 0.5 cent RTD tax. Hahn argued residents back subsidies and a vote will serve as a referendum. The contract includes a daily cancellation clause if voters approve the tax, with hopes for RTD improvements.
