Transcript of last week's public transit forum 

David Luberoff had another venue for his anti-transit stance at last week's CommonWealth Forum.

FYI, Ellin Reisner, one of the participants from STEP, had this comment on the write-up:

In looking it over it is definitely a summary and I think that some of the points I tried to make about Somerville were not fully and accurately conveyed. Just one example was my comment about kids playing in Foss Park and the Mystic Housing Development next to I93 and routes 28 and 38 was truncated so that it did not convey that Somerville children are playing within 500 feet of major highways. My point was that the California Air Resource Board discourages housing, schools and recreational areas located this close to highways due to the negative impact of fine particulates within this range, yet this is the case for Somerville children living and playing in Foss Park and the Mystic Housing Development.
