The city of Chelsea plan to subsidize the Ann Arbor Transit Authority's community connector between the two cities, Chelsea Standard reports.
The lobby to provide $15,000 to fund the connector was approved in a 5-1 vote by the Chelsea City Council . A small group of Chelsea residents who rely on the connector for transportation to their Ann Arbor jobs were responsible for the push, the Standard reported.
The vote also was to approve 2013-2014 budgets with the AATA funding amendment. There will be an $84,000 increase to the city’s fund balance before the AATA line item is added.
