As followup to a recent user comment posted to this site, DC ParaTransit Info contacted the office of DC Councilmember Carol Schwartz (R-At Large) asking for more information regarding recent media reports of her looking into the MetroAccess issues in her capacity as Chair of the District’s Committee on Public Works and the Environment. We received the following response to our inquiry today:
