[NFBF-Tampa] Para Transit Policies Is April meeting reminder Saturday 4/26 12p

[marion.gwizdala at gmail.com]

Dear All,

 

                I would like to urge as many of you to join us in person
this month. As a member of HART's ADA Accessibility Committee, I have been
urging HART to modify some of their archaic policies, such as return window
blackouts, three day reservation windows, the inability to cancel trips
without speaking to a CSR, and the requirement to recertify every five
years. 

 

Over the next three days, I would like to invite those impacted by these
policies to write a little about how these policies impact you as a blind
para transit patron. We know that the experiences of others validate our own
experiences; therefore, I want to urge you to post your comments to this
forum. Your comments will be synthesized and we will recommend a formal
written resolution for your approval at Saturday's meeting to be presented
at the next HART ADA Accessibility Committee meeting on May 15.

 

                If you have any questions, please ask. If you have comments,
please share!

 

Fraternally yours,

Marion Gwizdala
