Nash said last week she wants the county to have a vote on whatever transit options are presented by the study. That referendum would be unlikely to take place in 2017, she said.

As the county prepares to launch its transit study, it’s also wrapping up nearly two years of work on its comprehensive transportation plan. That plan touches on transit but also addresses topics like roadways, trails and pedestrian-oriented improvements.

A new round of public meetings on the transportation plan begin next week and will be held at six locations throughout the county. The same information will be presented at each meeting.
