The Woodstock Accessibility Advisory Committee will look over the Paratransit Program in more depth. The recommendations given to council were not passed Thursday night. Mayor Pat Sobeski has been sitting in on the committee meetings and said, "The last meeting I attended a couple of months ago they seemed to be comfortable with [the program], they seemed to understand the purpose, but now that they've seen the final draft I'm not sure why they had concerns about it. So some of the councillors just wanted to delay approval for another month just to find out what those concerns were." Some of the changes include a centralized booking service that would have users giving 24-hours notice to request a ride. Paratransit user Kelly Geurten says her main concern is immediate service: "I would like to be able call and to say 'I want to go somewhere today.' I suffer from MS. I could wake up in the morning and I might not be able to move. I have to cancel and I don't want to have to cancel. I want to say 'I feel good today and I want to have a coffee with friends.'" The program won't be looked at by council again until their next meeting in mid-July.
