SEPTA’s long hearing season is starting off today and tomorrow with budget and NPT implementation hearings being held in Delaware and Montgomery Counties, today (Monday) and tomorrow (Tuesday), respectively. Today’s hearings will be held at the Delaware County Courthouse in Media at 2:00p and 6:00p.
SEPTA is breaking with tradition in holding two hearings apiece in the four suburban county seats; usually they only have one each, which is their minimum statutory requirement, but this year’s proposals are looking complex enough that the extra time for public comment is warranted.
As I write this, I am on a train to Media to cover the first hearing. It is my intention to attend and cover as many hearings as scheduling and stamina permit. Watch this space and my Twitter feed…
