Wanted: Transit Consultant.

At the Little Tokyo Working Group meeting Thursday night, Metro distributed a draft proposal that more fully describes their commitment to pay for a consultant that would assist the Little Tokyo community with the Draft EIS/EIR for the Regional Connector project. Metro will pay up to $30K for a consultant to be selected by the Little Tokyo Community Council that will assist the community with the development of proposed mitigation measures for each build alternative under consideration for the Regional Connector. Interested parties should contact LTCC.

There is an old joke which says, "an expert is someone who lives at least 50 miles away," so I am curious to see what sort of consultant that the LTCC is capable of finding.

Certainly, an important project such as this one deserves a diplomat to guide it — someone who understands the wants and desires of the local community, but who also understands the mathematics of rail transit; someone who will be independent of both the MTA and the LTCC.
