Top Priorities if Elected |
- Service Equity - All people deserve equal access to transit 24/7. For many, service stops running in early evenings and does not run on weekends.
- Fare Equity - Poor rider pays cash, working full time, costs $66/month. Monthly AC Pass costs $50, BART Plus $22/mo. Ferry riders get tickets free.
- Improved customer communications - Restore the 24 hour "800" free call system, Post Card Mail Backs, shelters at BART.

- Partnership With BART
-
The current reality is that there exists an open feud between BART and AC Transit.
- "Lifeline of Web Service"
-
My position is that a "Lifeline of Web Service" is needed to cover the entire district.
- Service Equity
-
AC Transit service map shows the over 100 routes that are lettered or numbered. This display of routes looks impressive. It is, however, very misleading.
