Idea to send:	Topic Local Dedicated Funding Source for Public Transit Content Establish by local option vote a small millage property tax, or a half-cent sales tax earmarked for public transportation operations and capital needs. In OKC, we get the "equivalent" of a 10th of a penny, but it comes out of the City general fund, so we have a pretty small transit system. For example, Ft. Worth, K.C. MO, Albuquerque, Tucson, & others have a half-cent (or less) of city of multi-city dedicated sales tax. Austin, Denver, Dallas, & others are at a full penny. Omaha & others use the property tax. Some regions have other sources. Leisa Haynes, Mark Pritchard, Patrick Fox, Corey Wright, Candon Norton
