The discussion covered replacement of the antiquated fare boxes with a modern fare collection system.
The California Integrated Travel Project (Cal-ITP) is working with METRO to simplify METRO’s fare structure and help procure a modern integrated ticketing system.
• METRO’s fare structure and farebox pass products have remained essentially the same since 2011, when the $2.00 local fare was established. Card payment and fare system technology have both evolved; new systems provide simpler, more equitable options

About Santa Cruz County Transit and Transportation Agency Meetings - Audio Tracks
From the publisher's feed
Attending these meetings in person is very time consuming. They are long and there is often quite a bit of administrative business done. Not many people have the time to do it. And, even if you do,…
it is not a very efficient use of time.
But the meetings are important. They are the best way to keep track of what the agencies are up to. These podcasts make access to that content very simple and efficient.
I edit the podcasts to break the meetings into short, topical episodes. You can listen to the episodes that cover topics that matter to you. The cool thing about doing that with a podcast is that you can listen whenever and wherever you can.
The podcasts are made from community tv.org 's video feed of the meetings. Thanks go to them for providing those. You can see the full videos on their website.
I've started adding some episodes that cover the supporting documents for the meetings. Those can be very useful. I am using text to audio conversions to convert them to an audio format.
I'm not editing the content of the podcasts. It is extracted directly from the video of the meetings. I am editing out the agency's administrative business, and I am not including public comments. Both of those are available in the original video.
There are some presentations that depend on a Power point presentation or slides. I make videos of those and post them on YouTube.
