Committee investigating Baton Rouge’s bus system claims department is not cooperating
LINK
BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - A special committee looking into possible negligence within the Capital Area Transit System (CATS) claims the department is not fully cooperating with the investigation.
A team was created in July to investigate the conduct of some members appointed to the bus system’s board of commissioners, and possibly get them removed.
The CATS board came under fire when former CEO Bill Deville was stripped of his titles and duties after a series of problems, but he was still allowed to collect a six-figure salary.
This led to council members accusing the board of mishandling taxpayers’ dollars.

Was CATS inspired by Broom’s incompetence or the other way around?
I don’t understand why they aren’t just all fired and replaced with a private bus company that can actually deliver service.

CATS has been incompetent longer than Broome’s been here

Yeah. LSU told CATS to piss off about 20 years ago. They just weren’t providing acceptable service for student focused bus routes. They went with a private bus service provider.
The city of Baton Rouge should do the same.

CATS is a typical public agency in BR. It gets tax dollars, but has little public oversight. COA here is like that too.
They basically do as they please.

Yep. Tiger Trails busses are generally well used, have sensible routes, on time and not found burning on the side of the road because of shite servicing.

It should be dissolved is an entity. Contract out the bus service and save money.

Nah I think I’ll take more government.
I mean who doesn’t want government housing, government food, government healthcare and government transportation to their government job.

The Baton Rouge bus system is a giant waste of money and resources

This is a prime example of the ripple effects of incompetence in government combined with meritocracy going by the wayside.

Tiger Trails has noticeably improved over the past 2 school years.
