The purpose of the retreat is to develop strategic planning elements that will guide future EOTC efforts. The goals of the retreat are: 1) To establish a baseline understanding of the EOTC purpose, requirements, structure, funding and operations; 2) Identify the strengths, opportunities and challenges facing the EOTC today; and, 3) Create a priority list of themes, major topics, and/or projects to help guide the EOTC’s next steps and vision. Background (See Section 2, 3, and 4, below, for more detail) The EOTC was established after the voters approved a 0.5% County Transit Sales and Use Tax in November 1993 for the purpose of Financing, Constructing, Operating and Managing Mass Transportation System within the Roaring Fork Valley.
