Para Transit
Para transit is a limited option in Putnam County NY. Only about one-third of the county is covered by fixed route public transit making that the area also covered by Para. The county provides the minimum coverage required by law, 3/4 mile from the fixed route. I would like to see Para requirements expanded beyond the 3/4 limit along with regional connections to surrounding counties.

Funding for Fare Cards
Our transit agency provided low cost fare cards to the local Veterans Group one time. I feel that there should be some monies to allow the Veterans' Groups to purchase fare cards that could be utilized by Veterans who are now unable to drive.
