With the most recent cuts to the Highlands Recreational District’s budget, reliable transportation for youth has not been available. Many of the field trips are planned around public transportation. Beneficial trips do not allow for the use of public transportation due to their location.
The donation of a van, with an assessed worth of $1,725, will assist the Highlands Recreation Center in providing the essential transportation needed for students.
The used van, which has been serviced by County Motor Pool, is no longer used by the County’s Driver Training Program. The vehicle should serve the Highlands Recreation District well for several more years, as the mileage is less than 30,000.
