Commissioners discuss wheelchair-accessible bus and senior transportation plans
Summary
Board members and participants discussed a wheelchair-accessible bus offered for sale, senior dinners and potential summer tours; staff was asked to check purchase options and driver availability (CDL concerns were noted).
Commissioners and participants discussed senior transportation needs and a wheelchair-accessible bus that could be used for senior dinners and summer tours.
A presenter (S1) said she had sent bus information to "Nate Siles" to explore whether the county could acquire the vehicle; she described it as seating eight with wheelchair access and cited mileage figures and a price discussion. Participants noted the county's driver availability and CDL status as constraints.
Board members discussed options for serving Dutch John residents and for scheduling senior tours if the bus could be secured; no purchase decision was made at the meeting, and staff was asked to continue exploring funding and operational options.
