Good afternoon families,
Lee-Ogle Transit System (LOTS) is currently engaged in a feasibility study regarding potentially offering fixed route service throughout the Dixon community. The attached flyers outline two opportunities for members of the community to participate in the process.
The first opportunity is to complete the survey and the second is to attend a public information meeting. The District values our partnership with LOTS and is supporting their initiative through participation in the study and through the distribution of this information. We hope you take the time to participate.
