Each side

Council Members Who Voted Yes

Members who voted yes said the line connects three neighborhoods to the existing rail system and said the bond adds about 4 dollars a year to the median property tax bill.

Council Members Who Voted No

Members who voted no said the staff plan does not include an operating cost estimate past 2031 and said they wanted that figure before committing bond money.

Sample Transit Authority

The Transit Authority said the 6.4 mile line would carry an estimated 18,000 riders a day and said it will publish an operating cost plan in the first quarter of 2027.

Placeholder Neighborhood Alliance

The Alliance said it supports the line and asked the city to publish the construction detour plan before work starts on the Sample Street segment next spring.
