"Our customers are the most physically challenged, the most visually challenged, the most economically challenged," RTD Board of Directors Chair Gary Giovanetti said. "Our ridership, oftentimes the majority of our ridership, are what is called transit dependent."
Without it, the board voted Friday to draw nearly $15 million from their operating and capital reserves while also deferring four bus replacements.
CBS Sacramento sat down with Stockton Mayor Christina Fugazi, who is also the chair for SJCOG, to ask about this.
Fugazi also noted a drop in ridership.
Now, a potential lawsuit is on the table, which both can agree they don't want to see happen.
"I don't like to be contentious. I don't like that. I feel for them," Fugazi continued. "Like I said, the money is still there. Send us invoices that meet the criteria."
RTD warns that without this funding, it's possible within the next two months to see a drop in service.
