POD - Palmetto Bay is currently out of service area for Freebee. Let's make it happen. Improve our local mobility.

Reports are coming in as to the Pinecrest Freebee. The service started Monday, January 14, 2019, in Pinecrest.  I downloaded the APP sometime ago, when I was confident that Palmetto Bay would be the first to introduce the Freebee service.  I was pushing for an October 2018 start of the Freebee service for Palmetto Bay.  We pushed for and were awarded a 3 year pilot grant late in 2018 to start the service for 2019 (that's the start for the Grant, but the ability to use CITT funds for this on-demand service were already available.

I was negotiating for an earlier start and I found the local proprietors of Freebee most accommodating. We could have, should have, started this Freebee service in December 2018 for Palmetto Bay.

Please see my prior post regarding the grant and other update on the Palmetto Bay Freebee: posted January 9, Freebee update - reviewing prior notifications. FAQ. The funding is in place for the Palmetto Bay Freebee service, but is the interest or political will?

But for now, many Palmetto Bay residents will be "outside the service area" of the Pinecrest Freebee.

Focus. Let's get it together and start the Freebee for Palmetto Bay.
