(The pledge is recited.) 1. Public Comment Mr. Frederico said I'm currently a resident of Mesa. And I was at the management committee meetings and I was encouraged to come back to talk to the Board to give a little positive message about the customer service that I've been receiving from Valley Metro since I moved here in September. I've had a number of occasions where I have called up the general phone number to ask information about certain bus lines, how to get to certain places, why a bus route was changed and helping find the information about the upcoming proposals for changes to the bus routes. VALLEY METRO • 101 N 1ST AVE • STE 1300 • PHOENIX AZ • 85003 • 602-262-7433 And I was blown away by the friendliness and responsiveness that I received. First of all, the calls were answered very quickly. Didn't have to be put on hold. I didn't have to push buttons. I didn't have to wait and wait and wait. There was somebody right there to talk to me. And they were all very friendly. Every single one of the people that I've spoken to and there have been four, five, maybe six calls altogether. And every one of them was very friendly. And every one of them was very knowledgeable. And I was very, very impressed with the bus route information I was not intending on spending a lot of time on the phone and, you know, challenging anyone, but I had three places that I needed to go and the representative just immediately gave me the information. And the best of all was on November 20th when you had the table with the information about the upcoming bus route proposal changes in Tempe. And I was having a little difficulty finding exactly where it was, so I called the customer service line and the gentleman was not exactly certain where I was or where it was, but he knew generally where it was. But he stayed on the phone with me. And he made a phone call to someone in the office. He sent an e-mail. And he waited and waited and I eventually found the table myself and he was still with me. Apparently he was using GPS system of some sort. But he was on the phone with me for a very long time. He was very friendly and even though he wasn't able to get me right to where I was going, he was pretty close and he was very, very, helpful. So I want to say thank you to Valley Metro for the good customer service. You're doing something right with the hiring and training and keep up the great work. Mr. May said good afternoon and Happy New Year to some of you that are new to the Board. I speak occasionally at these meetings and I am a blind person who likes to help you guys in advising what I see where you guys do not. Most recently there was a change in the bus passes and I'm concerned that the color change may make it harder for low vision people to read the date stamps on those. Second of all, I would really wish that among the region that wherever you have a major cross street and major activity centers where you have two buses connecting i.e., 67th and Bethany, that's just an example, that you would have shade structures on where you have a lot of bus riders at. Currently there are spots in this city, including Glendale, where you do not have any shade structures, all you have is a sign on a pole. I'm referring to a stop in Phoenix on Camelback on that one. And then as far as bus stops go, because of the bus stops I feel that there should be a standard on the bus stops where there should be at least a curb riser on one side to keep blind people from falling into landscape when they're trying to get from a bus stop to the signal intersection. Thank you. 2 Mr. Crowley said today on public comment I'd like to point out that I did get the letter from Mr. Banta, about five minutes ago, defining and it really doesn't define what I asked, which was the term that they had market demand.
