§ 102285 Transit Service Rates

This law says that the board decides how much to charge for public transportation and the prices have to be fair.

Key Takeaways

  • •The board is the only group that can set transit prices.
  • •Any price set must be reasonable, not too high.
  • •If there are no charges, that's allowed too.

Example

A city bus system wants to raise its fare from $2 to $2.50.

The board that runs the bus system can set the new price, but it must make sure the $2.50 fare is still reasonable for riders.
