Funds the purchase of property and construction for an expanded public transit facility in Columbia County, a commuter county where 78 percent of residents commute to Portland and western Washington County for jobs, education, and medical services. There is no public transit hub at the present time, and all vehicles in need of maintenance service must be transported to Hillsboro, Oregon, which is over 40 miles away. Having a transit hub in Columbia County would reduce costs, provide maintenance efficiency, and create jobs for county residents.
