Corinth currently offers an "on demand transit" service to seniors and the disabled of any age. Initially a small low cost program, it has become a small extremely expensive program. From a few thousand dollars a year, it is now projected to be over $55,000 for 2010 serving only 12 residents that use it. Per person served, it is over $4,500, compared to just over $640 per person served by all the rest of the city services (police, fire/ems, community services, etc).
With the current budget issues, reduced revenues from sales tax and property values going down, it is hard to justify continuing this expense in my opinion.
