Council conditions Mountain Rides support on local service impacts

During discussion of other general government funding, Council Member Michelle Griffith addressed Mountain Rides' request for increased support. Griffith said she would back the increase only if cuts in routes in other municipalities would not shift the burden or costs to Sun Valley: "it isn't reasonable for the City of Sun Valley to absorb cuts from other municipalities."

No vote or funding decision on Mountain Rides occurred at the special meeting; the statement frames the council's position as it continues budget deliberations that involve regional transit funding.
