  • Appendix A: Listening Meeting Flip Chart Notes, Comment Forms, and Online Open House Responses
    OREGON PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION PLAN Appendix A: Listening Meeting Flip Chart Notes, Comment Forms, and Online Open House Responses La Grande Listening Meeting: Flip Chart Notes Mobility • Lack of public transit options in rural areas.

This is happening more frequently. • Gaps between Malheur County, Baker County and Harney County. • Emergence of high demand for medical trips and veteran services. • Lack of knowledge about services and how to use the system. • Lack of money for marketing and outreach. • Predictability and stability of funding. Lots of funds go to operations. • Travel reliability. • Like: one stop information and referral. • Broaden Service. Hours for non 9-5 times. • First and last mile solutions such as vanpools and volunteer drivers. • How to use the system. • Limited funding. • Need for non-emergency medical trips. • Outreach – how to use the system. • Regional connectivity over long distances. • Transfers and waiting areas. • Land use access to affordable housing. Land use regulations to match public transit with housing. • Vanpool/to-riders starting to see value of public transit. Ridesharing, others = more opportunities. • Pilot projects? Funding. Acknowledge the risk. • Partnerships – City, County and Non-profits. Culture CAG • Special events for public transit coordination. • Big picture. Billboards? cCulture CHG. • Mobility one-stop referral. • Staff capacity/resources to develop facilities. • Tech assistance to small providers. • Access to services/coordination with providers. • Recruitment. • How to make public transit more appealing?
