“I understand, but right now, I'll quote you here and say that last week when we talked about this, you said it's a long uphill battle to get the county to release the funds. Yes. What would be the projected O from CITT to the general fund at the end of the fiscal?”

“I haven't got a chance to speak and I see my breath here because I'm a no vote, but I want it to be on the record why I'm a no vote before we vote. So ridership, 2023, we're at 6,205 riders. In 2024, that dropped to 5,337. That represents a 13% decrease. 2025, that dropped to 4,183, a 21% increase, or decrease, excuse me, from 2024 to 2025. In 2026, we don't have a complete year, but in the first quarter, we have 840 riders. That's a 12% decrease. That shows from 2023 to 2025, our completed years, a 34% decrease over three years.

“So I'm not advocating for this, but I will point out that it says in our charter, we're allowed to not have a July meeting and take a vacation. Just saying, just.

“That would be my ultimate concern is if you even have any, if this passes, any inclination of staff trying to resurrect this. I'm sure they've already had conversations with the state, the county. Sure. Time is of the essence, and I wouldn't expect to pass this on June 30th and then see...”

“I would select a date if you're calling this special meeting and go from there. I'm not going to support it because I did not extend that meeting. I voted no to extend that meeting. I understand. And so did Commissioner Gonzalez. I'm not going to support a special call meeting because I didn't support continuing the meeting that we had. So the votes are the votes. If you would like to call on Mr. Mayor, you're more than within your rights to, and we could pick a date that we're all available, but time is of the essence for administration.”
