5. Discuss city bus stops. (Requested by Commissioner Williams)
Mr. Johnson: Mr. Williams and I had talked earlier about our transfer point at
Deans Bridge Road where we had moved the stop to the K-Mart shopping center near
McDonald's. We are trying to correct a few problems that we had. I have spoken to the
shopping center manager about leasing a little portion by the road where we could place a
larger shelter for people waiting for the bus. Weare also in the process of changing the
run time for the buses in that area so that it will eliminate the waiting time for people at
the stop and that will probably be implemented by March or April. I've talked to Trees &
Landscaping about picking up the garbage in that area and McDonald's and K Mart are
emptying the can as well. We have a request for proposals out to acquire and place some
new benches out and we will be getting those in soon. These are some of the things that
we had discussed.
Mr. Hankerson: You might also coordinate some commW1ity services workers to
help gather the trash in that location. I move we receive this as information.
Ms. Sims: Second.
Motion adopted unanimously.
