Foothill Transit in Paris
The FC Blog has the scoop, courtesy of Claremont Insider: Foothill Transit members apparently are in Paris, and will be visiting other parts of France, with taxpayer funds.
Claremont Insider put it best:
This is the same agency that recently had to increase bus fares for the low-income or environmentally-conscious folks who use the bus system. At first we found this unbelievable, and frankly dismissed it as a crank complaint.
They are there to study public/private partnerships (read: finding companies who want to invest in public transportation). The trip runs from July 1 to July 9, and includes SGV council members Peggy Delach and Doug Tessitor.
Elected officials on trips is an old story, of course. Examples-
-State politicians, using campaign funds, at golf resorts, on Maui, to France and Spain
-Water officials running amok
- Irwindale council members living it up in New York
