Amendment – Transit for Teens (Montague)

Summary

• Amendment by Councillor Montague replacing the original "Transit for Teens" framing with endorsement of the Mayors' Council position from TransLink's 2018 Fare Policy Review.
• Shifted the ask from extending the Get on Board program specifically to age 18, to urging the province to expand the BC Bus Pass program to all low-income residents, including youth.
• Councillors Boyle, Carr, and Fry opposed the amendment, preferring the original youth-specific framing.
