[il-talk] FW: RTA TO HOST DECEMBER PUBLIC HEARINGS

[Connie J. Davis]

With so much happening this year with funding for our transit system, we
need your input before next year's budget is approved.
 
We will host our second round of public hearings from December 7-10 to
discuss the RTA's proposed 2010 budget. Eight hearings will be held
throughout the transit system's six county region. RTA Board members will
offer opening remarks followed by the RTA senior staff who will conduct
presentations. You will have the opportunity to make public comments.
Hearings are open to the general public and are ADA Accessible. If you
require reasonable accommodation in order to attend a hearing or have
questions, please call 312-913-3153 (TTY - 312-913-3111) at least two
business days before the hearing.
 
In addition to the hearings, the budget will be presented through noon-time
webinars that are in the process of being scheduled, posted on RTA websites
and will be available at certain libraries in addition to other methods to
broaden access to the public.  The RTA Board will vote to approve the 2010
transit system budget at its December 17 meeting.  For more information,
