Today’s Headlines

Featured Headline: Just because I was at Think Bike, doesn’t mean the Metro Board didn’t have a busy day.  They passed a local hiring plan, approved the EIR for the Crenshaw Line, Free Fares for Girl Scouts on 10/29, and a bunch of other stuff such as cancelling the cancellation of the 442 Bus Line.

Featured Headline 2: I was a featured guest on KPCC’s Crossroads talking Eli Broad, the Community Connector Coalition and the Regional Connector.  Love the picture.
