 Subject: MASSMAIL - Want changes to the campus bus system or to Safe R

To all Illinois Students:

The campus is currently preparing to renegotiate the contact with the 
Champaign-Urbana Mass Transit District.  The campus has traditionally 
outsourced its responsibility to provide student bus services (including 
Safe Rides) to the MTD.  These renegotiations take place every three 
years, with any subsequent changes to the student Transportation Fee 
going before the student body for a vote during the Spring Student 
Elections, and then being forwarded to the University of Illinois Board 
of Trustees.

As the Student Representative to the C-U MTD Board of Trustees, I have 
the responsibility of representing the student body in these 
negotiations.  As such, I have organized three town hall meetings on the 
Transportation Fee in order to give you an opportunity to express your 
thoughts on campus MTD services.  These town halls will be held on:

Monday, October 10th at the Law School Auditorium from 7-8:30pm

Tuesday, October 11th at the Illini Union General Lounge (room 
210) from 12-1:30pm

Thursday, October 13th at the Illini Union General Lounge (room 
210) from 7-8:30pm

Representatives from the MTD will be in attendance to address questions 
and concerns at these times.

In addition to collecting information from these meetings, I invite you 
to submit your thoughts to me via the link below by October 21, 2011.  
This is your opportunity to suggest changes to the MTD campus system (bus 
system/Safe Rides), including the possible expansion/reduction of 
services, or the creation of new services.  Your name will not be 
released.

Please share your thoughts at:  https://illinois.edu/fb/sec/5649956

If you have any questions, comments or concerns about this process, 
please feel free to contact me at maskeri1@illinois.edu

Thank you,

Jim Maskeri
Student Representative to the C-U MTD Board of Trustees
