Transportation Commission seeks volunteers for new
working group
Edina, Minn., Sept. 13, 2011 -- The Edina Transportation Commission is looking for volunteers to
serve on its new Transportation Options Working Group.
The purpose of the working group is to review current transportation options for Edina seniors aging
in place, including volunteer driver services, public transportation, private commercial transportation
and non-motorized transportation, and identify the need for additional services as appropriate; to
review and make recommendations for additional services and infrastructure improvements to meet
the transportation needs of Edina seniors aging in place; to recommend partnerships and outside
sources of funding to help meet the transportation needs of Edina seniors aging in place; and to
identify other populations who might also be served by these measures.
To apply for the Transportation Options Working Group, contact Sharon Allison, City of Edina Public
Works Office Manager, at 952-826-0449 or sallison@ci.edina.mn.us, and briefly state why you are
interested, your skills or qualifications, and what evenings during the week you would be available to
attend meetings. The group’s meeting schedule has yet to be determined.
