He pointed out no bus route being proposed to the other side of Bayshore and trailer park areas but would be considered for a partial coverage after system had been in operation for a while. Equipment Request for Council's acceptance of the six buses not normally required or requested, but because of the magnitude of the purchase, the pioneering aspect of this venture, fact that the capital outlay represents only a portion of the total cost of providing bus service, and material differences in the egTlip- ment, acceptance was requested. Report advised, although the vehicles to be delivered are essentially the same in performance capability, there were material differences in construction due to the fact that the manufacturer is delivering an improved 1968 model bus, and reviewed the changes involved, such as shorter wheel base, split brake system (a feature to be required by Federal Government in 1969) center doors, for allowing a lower loading level, all of which features had been checked with the California Highway Patrol and with technical assistance of the Dodge Motor Company and satisfied the Committee that vehicles will serve the needs of the system. Councilman Petersen also advised the manufacturer had agreed to extend the customary warranty to all components of the equipment reviewed. WR 2514
