INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: H. A. Thomason 0ATE: April 21,, 1959
FROM: Steve Taylor
SUBJECT:MINUTES OF TRANSIT CONYISSION K&_,;TING HtELD TUESDAY APRIL 1L,,., 1959
COMMENT:
The meeting was called to order by the Chairman, Larry Lambert, with the following
members present:
Ben Ludy
Charles L. Adcock
Ben Blanton
A. B. Foreman
Maxine Lee
Claude West
Capt. John M. Coggins
Larry Lambert
Fitzgerald
Andy Hauer
Williams
Jack Hughes
Steve Taylor
Mr. Fitzgerald, in discussion of Faith Village service, stated, that some work had
been done,, but nothing definite. That he felt that sortie adjustments would be made
prior to the next meetin�- of the Transit Commission.
cl
In other discussions concernin- the extension, on Rosewood Street, South to Sullivan,
o
Mr. Hughes stated that schedules could not be maintained due to the additional four
blocks travel necessitated by this extension. This would probably require going to
a 30 minute schedule ra:ther than the 20 minute route now in effect.
Mr. Fitzgerald, on this matter, stated that a study would be made on the Loop Route
to see if such an extension is feasible.
The possibility of re-routing the Sheppard run by way of the Low Rent Housing Project
on Carolina Street was proposed by bus officials. In that running time would be the
same, Captain Co'g,gins, representing Sheppard, saw no objection to the proposal.
Mr. James Smith,, Transit Consultant, gave a brief summary of his com,-.)any' s experience
and what would be included in a comprehensive study b�r his firm.
Major points mentioned by Mr. Smith were:
1. Investigation of present operation, loading,, transfer points, routes,
c�
and survey of existing conditions.
2. Studies to deter.n.-iine the transit sYstems impact on economy of ��iichita
Falls. How doas it effect the economic base?
3. Relationship of traffic and transit, the effect of parking,, pedestrians.,
etc., on transit operations. Does parking, signal operation and one-way
streets impede transit?
)t. Recommendation, with the hope of a cooperative program. Mr. Smith pointed
out that the national trend was toward indirect subsidation of transit
through tax relief and in Texas some aid was derived through registration
fees.
B.--,,,?.ntori,, in discussing Mr. Smithts statements
emphasized growth in outlying areas
of ';dchita Falls and su,estad a system of neighborhood busses. These routes would be
centered around the schools and nei-ahborhood shopping centers. These routes would be
tied into downtown by express routes,
