Key Takeaways

  • •The board can start a transit district only after giving public notice.
  • •A public hearing must be held before any decision.
  • •The board must believe the transit district is in the public interest or necessary.

Example

The county board wants to start a new bus system for the area.

They must publish a notice, hold a public meeting where people can speak, and then they can vote to officially create the San Mateo County Transit District if they believe it's needed.
