Hall County was forced to separate from the City and <br /> the first time we went out for bids we did not receive any the second time Brown Transit <br /> submitted a bid and they helped the county program get started but they are a for profit <br /> business, there are not very many in the state. When we operated with Crane there <br /> were some economies. Our current ride cost is $147.00 and riders are charged $2.00 <br /> Our budget match has been reduced by 27% and usually it is a 20/80 or 90/10 match <br /> Hall County has contributed about $40,000 to the budget. <br /> Bob McFarland stated that in addition to the/$32,000 match there could possibly be <br /> $75,000 to $85,000 over the local match. <br /> 4 <br />
