Kalamazoo voters pass Transit, Public Library Mileages


I want to thank all the Kalamazoo Voters who came out yesterday and helped pass the Public Transit & Public Library Mileages. Voters overwhelmingly passed both mileages, renewing the transportation & educational services which are vital to so many residents of Kalamazoo County.

The public transit vote will fund buses outside Kalamazoo, as well as Metro Van and Care-A-Van. Care-A-Van aids many senior citizens and people with disabilities reach the services they need.

Step two is to put a 0.6-mill tax request before Kalamazoo city voters on the November ballot.
