City Council OKs transit tax agreement

Please see Nate Monroe's article concerning the dedicated Gas Tax Funding for ECAT.  With the improvement in vehicle MPG and the price of oil on the rise, the gas tax is becoming a less than reliable source of funding for government.  I hope the county has a long term plan for funding.

Also, I will be talking with the County Commissioners about beginning to convert the bus fleet over to Compressed Natural Gas (CNG).  CNG is cleaner and more cost effective.  This would be a perfect RESTORE Act project.
