    Central Midlands Regional Transit Authority 2018-2019 Annual Report February 14, 2020 Dear Member Agencies, In accordance with South Carolina Code of Laws, Section 58-25-70, the Central Midlands Regional Transit Authority (The COMET) hereby submits the Annual Report for the year ending June 30, 2019. Profile of the Central Midlands Regional Transit Authority Under South Carolina Code of Laws – Regional Transportation Authority Law - Title 58 – Public Utilities, Services and Carriers, a regional transportation authority may be organized in any county in South Carolina that is part of a designated regional transportation area. The COMET is a regional transportation authority formed by the governments in Richland and Lexington Counties on April 24, 2000 by the Central Midlands Council of Governments. In May 2001, The COMET Board of Directors held its first meeting. On October 16, 2002, The COMET assumed operations of the bus services provided by South Carolina Electric and Gas Company utilizing a private contractor. In August 2011, The COMET was reconstituted between Richland County, Lexington County and the Cities of Columbia and Forest Acres. A funding intergovernmental agreement was signed by Richland County, City of Columbia, City of Forest Acres and Lexington County to fund, operate and maintain public transit services in the Central Midlands area. The intergovernmental agreement took effect in July of 2013 based on receipt of new funding from Richland County for 22 years or $300,991,000, whichever comes first. Lexington County agreed to provide an appropriation which is agreed to annually. Lexington County also pursues funding from the Cities of West Columbia and Cayce, the Town of Springdale and Lexington Medical Center to support transit services in Lexington County.

Sure it's a big campus, but it's a campus with per­ sonality. The faces tell the story — a pondering coach in the final seconds of a game, a frustrated student at registration, a dedicated professor scribbling on a chalkboard. From the exhausted in­ tramural tennis champion to the exhuber- ant fan, Carolinians' countenances are dynamic, changing from year to year but reacting in many ways to same stimuli. This is Carolina! After all, a university is the people, not the buildings. CAROLINA'S UNIQUE FACES OPENING — 5 CAROLINA BY DAY The Carolina Community. It has been growing constantly for the last decade. Buildings going up, others being renovated. But all the while serving as a huge meeting ground for the top thinkers in the world. By day, Carolina is stirring, busy with students and faculty striving for academic excellence. In the B.A. Build­ ing students participate in corporate simulations while across campus at the coliseum, future broadcasters and news­ paper editors search for just the right word or phrase. A sidewalk art sale, a geology field trip — all this is Carolina by day. OPENING — 7 CAROLINA BY NIGHT At night, Carolina is transformed into a collage of light.
