Speak Up for Transit: October 6 County Commission MeetingIn September, riders spoke up and the County restored $12.4 million for early morning bus service. We saved the first bus. Now let&#39;s save the last one.$19.1 million in bus cuts are still on the table. On Tuesday, October 6, County Commissioners will discuss new ways to fund transit, including fare increases. Public comment is part of the process, and Commissioners need to hear from riders. We need people in the room. Our ask: restore $10.5 million for late night bus service. On an average weeknight, riders take 3,282 trips on buses that leave after 10 p.m. Many are heading home from late shifts. If late night service ends, there is no later bus to wait for. Riders would be stranded with no affordable alternative. $10.5 million keeps late night service running on 41 routes.We&#39;re also asking Commissioners to choose funding that lasts, so transit is not on the chopping block every year. If fares go up, they must protect the riders who can least afford it. That means real outreach, a simpler application for free and reduced fares, and help signing up. And we&#39;re still fighting to save the 12 routes set to be eliminated.&rarr; Tuesday, October 6. Meeting begins at 9:00 AM.📍 Stephen P. Clark Government Center, 111 NW First Street, Miami, FL 33128 About the timing: You have to sign up in order to give public comment. Arrive before 9:00 AM to get on the speaker list. This is a regular County Commission meeting, so it should be shorter and less crowded than the budget hearings. What to bring:&rarr; Photo ID. You cannot get in without it.&rarr; Water.&rarr; Eat before you come. Food isn&#39;t allowed inside the chamber.&rarr; Nothing that wouldn&#39;t clear airport security. Everyone is screened at the door. You don&#39;t need to be an expert. Plan for about one minute, in your own words. Arrive early and we&#39;ll help you write your comment before the meeting starts.#StopTheCuts #SaveTheLastBus

Board of County Commissioners - Oct 6th

Speak Up for Transit: September Budget Hearings.&nbsp;The FY2026-27 county budget isn&#39;t final until commissioners vote on it. Two public hearings in September are the last chance for residents to speak directly to all 13 commissioners before that happens. We need people in the room. Our ask: restore $12.4 million for early morning bus service.&nbsp;The proposed budget cuts the first buses of the day &mdash; the ones that get 3,500 riders to work before sunrise. Nurses, hospitality workers, construction crews, airport staff. People whose shifts start before most schedules do. Restoring $12.4 million keeps those buses running. We&#39;re not going alone.&nbsp;Transit Alliance Miami is joining Miami Freedom Project, Miami Civics Club, Catalyst Miami, and Engage Miami. Our partners are bringing budget demands on housing, the environment, libraries, and healthcare. Different asks, same message: this budget should reflect what residents actually need.&rarr; Read the full coalition talking points: <a fr-original-style="" href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NR8l4Z0nz9l6uDS0O-hQh-plA1E_KvWt0UJNi1WquL8/edit?usp=sharing" style="text-decoration-color: currentcolor; user-select: auto; box-sizing: inherit;" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NR8l4Z0nz9l6uDS0O-hQh-plA1E_KvWt0UJNi1WquL8/edit?usp=sharing</a> Two hearings. Pick one or come to both.&rarr;&nbsp;Wednesday, September 3 &mdash; meeting begins at 5:00 PM &rarr; Wednesday, September 17 &mdash; meeting begins at 5:00 PM. This is the night commissioners adopt the budget. 📍Stephen P. Clark Center, 111 NW First Street, Miami, FL 33128 About the timing: You have to register in order to give public comment, and it gets busy. The meeting starts at 5:00 PM, but the earlier you arrive and sign up, the earlier your turn to speak. Arrive late and you could be waiting a while. That&#39;s why we&#39;re asking roughly what time you plan to get there, so we have someone available to help you register and get on the speaker list. Ballpark is fine. What to bring:&rarr;&nbsp;Photo ID &mdash; you cannot get in without it. &rarr; Water &rarr;&nbsp;Snacks for the wait in line. Eating isn&#39;t allowed inside the chamber itself, so plan to eat before you go in. &rarr; Nothing that wouldn&#39;t clear airport security. Building security screens everyone on the way in, so leave any of that at home. You don&#39;t need to be an expert. Keep your comment to one minute, and in your own words is best. If you arrive early, we&#39;ll help you put your comment together while we wait for the meeting to start. Want to prepare in advance?

We&#39;ll be informing them of the proposed cuts to early morning bus service, collecting postcards from them to share with Commissioners, and informing them about steps they can take to fight back against these cuts.&nbsp;<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Thursday, Aug 27 at Government Center</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Friday, Aug 28 at Brickell Station</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Tuesday, Sept 1st at Aventura Mall Bus Terminal</li></ul>
