Mayor Frost joins UTA advisory council, notes potential $0.25 fare increase under discussion
Summary
Mayor Bradley J. Frost reported his appointment to the Utah Transit Authority Advisory Council and said members discussed a possible $0.25 bus fare increase during his first meeting; he described the agency's process as data-driven and said he looks forward to learning more.
Mayor Bradley J. Frost told the council he was nominated and appointed by Utah County mayors to serve on the Utah Transit Authority Advisory Council and attended his first meeting.
Frost said the Advisory Council discussed a possible bus fare increase of $0.25 during the meeting and that the agency presented substantial data and due diligence in considering any adjustment. "I look forward to learning more during my service on the council," Frost said. He noted the advisory role may be short-term pending potential restructuring of the advisory council.
The minutes record Frost's observation that UTA's budget scale is much larger than the city's but that decision-making processes felt familiar; no formal city action related to the UTA appointment or fares was recorded.
