Description of Unmet Needs <br /> <br /> The City of Pleasanton Senior Citizens' Transportation Program was first initiated <br /> by the Pleasanton Junior Women's Club in 1972. It was developed in response to <br /> concerns about the lack of available transportation for senior residents no longer <br /> able to drive. The Junior Women's Club donated a 12-passenger mini-bus to the <br /> City with the stipulation that the vehicle be used to provide free transportation for <br /> the City's elderly. In 1975, the Club donated a second van. As ridership demand <br /> increased, the City applied for and received revenue funds fi'om Alameda County <br /> enabling the City to expand the program. <br /> <br /> Today, the program meets the needs of seniors 60 years or older, and the disabled <br /> of any age residing in Pleasanton, Sunol, and the unincorporated areas of <br /> Pleasanton. Disabled Pleasanton-Sunol clients who meet ADA qualifications are <br /> also eligible for this service. The Livermore Amador Valley Transit Authority <br /> (LAVTA) determines ADA eligibility. Pleasanton residents that meet the ADA <br /> requirements are referred to Pleasanton Paratransit for service. <br /> <br /> <br />
