Update on Sun City

Ok- waited to hear from many sides on the piece I wrote last night on "Part-time Accessibility for Full-time Disabled"- here's the scoop.

Sun City Cab did receive New Freedom monies in their pursuit of van conversions for wheelchairs. Not alot, but some, don't have an exact dollar amount.

Yellow/Checker has not received these monies.

There is no stipulation of having the wheelchair accessible vans available 24 hours a day to get these monies.

The owner of Sun City Cab also apologizes for the mistake made when saying they were now "on-demand". He says they only have 2 vans at the moment and they are still requiring 24-hour notice for these vans.

Ok- now that we have all that straight- it still sucks. It's better than it was- at least now for planned events or errands the disabled can get a ride, but good luck being spontaneous.

There's more possible good news in the works as far as Sun City and the disabled community, can't say now, but we'll hear about it in October possibly.

So the work continues....
