Commission readies Community Night Out presence; 1,000 magnets to be handed out
Summary
Commissioners confirmed plans to use the transit bus as an outreach booth at Community Night Out tomorrow, assign a driver (Paul) to take people over, and said about 1,000 promotional magnets will be distributed until they are gone.
Transit staff and commissioners finalized details for Community Night Out, scheduled for the next day. The administrator said Paul “will be taking the bus over and taking people over,” and staff planned to use the bus as their outreach booth while handing out magnets and candy.
Commissioners discussed promotional materials. One participant said the agency received magnet stock and estimated the order was “1000.” A committee member mentioned a named person in relation to magnets, stating, verbatim, “And Merrill Brown until the magnets are gone.” Staff said magnets will be available at upcoming outreach events and at the back‑to‑school activity where roughly 25 people attended previously.
The outreach plans are intended to raise awareness of transit services and sign up riders as schools reopen in September.
