There would be proportional increases to ticket and pass prices. These measures have been proposed to offset what otherwise will be a major shortfall in TCAT's 2001 budget.
Factors leading to the shortfall include increased fuel and liability insurance costs.
The meeting at Cornell is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 24, from noon to 1 p.m. in room G10 of the Biotechnology Building. To date, there has been no final determination as to the effect the fare increase may have on Cornell-sponsored transit programs for its faculty, staff and students. Representatives of the administration will be meeting with the Transportation Advisory Committee of the University Assembly to discuss the issue. Public comments will be posted on the TCAT web site and presented to the TCAT board of directors. 1 p.m. Town of Lansing, Town Hall board meeting room, Oct. 23, 7-8 p.m.
