No City meetings this week
Dear fellow nonprofits and partner organizations,
We are fast approaching a deadline that could have major effects on the communities we serve.
We need all hands on deck to ensure that our most vulnerable populations that are transit-dependent - low income people, youth, seniors and people with disabilities - do not have devastating service cuts that affect their ability to move safely and cost effectively through our region. It would set us backwards on our climate and housing goals and create major traffic and pollution.
This Thursday evening, August 7, the VTA board will be voting on whether to join the regional public transportation funding measure. This measure will not only prevent severe cuts to BART and Caltrain, will provide funding to greatly improve bus service by implementing VTA’s Visionary Network, and support faster, more reliable bus service, integrated, affordable fares, improved paratransit and accessibility for people with disabilities and seniors, and easy to use wayfinding signs.
Our ask: that VTA opt in to the regional transportation measure at the highest level (½ cent sales tax), the only level that will save transit and help our transportation system work even better.
This is an unprecedented opportunity to get hundreds of millions of dollars of new funding for transit service throughout Santa Clara County and connecting the county to the rest of the region.
To get a measure on the ballots that funds BART, Caltrain, VTA and other agencies across the region we need a law passed in Sacramento. The bill to do this is SB63, which would authorize a ballot measure in 2026. The bill would authorize a signature gathering citizen’s initiative which could pass with a vote of 50% +1.
After months of advocacy, this is the VTA Board’s critical vote:
Thursday August 7 starting at 5:30pm.
Can your organization and community members you serve speak up to the VTA board in support of joining the regional funding measure?
Come join us by doing any of the following:
We have a handy toolkit here that provides the info for you and your community to make a public comment remotely by Zoom, email the Board, or attend the meeting in person. The signup page has the meeting agenda, zoom information if you are dialing in, and suggested points to make in comments. For community members, it is especially powerful to share a personal story about why public transit matters to them. Board members need to hear from the residents that will be most affected by cuts and benefit the most from improvements.
You and others can sign up here to get text and email reminders when the item comes up on the agenda so you can join when it’s time for public comment period rather than waiting through other items.
Sign this joint letter showing that community groups and nonprofits support joining SB63 to save and improve our public transit system.
This past week, transit riders and Santa Clara County leaders rallied to show VTA that transit riders want Santa Clara County to join the regional transit funding measure!
Can your organization join us?
Thanks,
Matt Jones, SVBC and Adina Levin, Seamless Transit
