      <title>Tempe to host public meetings about Orbit, bus and METRO light rail systems</title>
      <description>Tempe residents are encouraged to attend public meetings to learn more about potential changes to the Orbit neighborhood circulator, fixed route arterial bus and METRO light rail systems.  The purpose of these meetings is to get input from passengers on potential changes that may occur in July 2010. 

These meetings are part of a two-stage public involvement process to develop the service changes necessary to help address a forecasted budget deficit due to the slowing economy. The Tempe transit system is funded primarily by a half cent sales tax, which has dramatically decreased causing Tempe to reevaluate the transit system in order to reduce costs. 

Passengers and residents are able to comment online about Round 1 proposals from Feb. 22 through March 7 at www.tempe.gov/tim.  Round 2 proposals will be available for comment from March 29 through April 13. Round 2 proposals will be based in part on feedback from passengers related to Round 1 proposals.

Don Cassano Community Room 			
200 E. Fifth St., Tempe
