As of Oct 14, 2009, neither the Graduate Student Association nor the Associated Students have weighed in on a referendum as suggested by the 'green transit initiative', probably from Parking and Transportation Services, which we may take as a starting point for discussion. Any referendum will of course have to follow the procedures spelled out in Article VII of our Constitution, and any analogous procedures of the Associated Students.
This internal committee, in cooperation with the Associated Students, will draft a referendum which ensures that student interests are met and that both the GSA and Associated Students agree on the final terms.
Multiple committees will weigh in on the final referendum language, including at least the Transportation and Parking Committee.
In addition to the information posted below in our reports, our campus paper The Guardian has been reporting regularly on interesting activities in Transportation.

| TPS 07/08 budget info |
The primary new piece of info offered here is a breakdown of revenue. Curiously they claim revenue from shuttles, none of which collect fairs if I'm correct... Possibly this is from specific shuttle reservations (eg GSA pays extra for a late Hillcrest shuttle for our quarterly festivals). |

| Green Transit Initiative NOT originated from student groups |
You may have seen advertisement of the 'green transit initiative' around campus recently, possibly distributed by the department of Transportation and Parking Services. Please let us make clear that this website is not endorsed by the Graduate Student Association, or the Associated Students, nor did it originate from students. The relevant referendum forming committee will draft terms agreed upon by students, and only after approval by the GSA and AS councils will such a referendum come to a general student body vote, consistent with our constitution. |
