But that ifthere is enough interest, “the service might be expanded to provide regular fee-based shuttle service between the various downtown commercial districts and between downtown Decatur and the Oakhurst district.” I don’t think that expanding the service would require a new Agreement, but that should probably be made clear in whatever Agreement they intend on signing. Maybe Lyn can fill us in on what the intent is.

The reason why I pointed out festivals is because they have the potential to be free during these periods.

I’ve seen them in other urban environments before. My only question though is does the 6-month trial limit its use to only during “festivals and other special events?” If so, why? If we’re going to do a trial run, why not see whether it could serve as a real alternative transportation form for Decatur?
