Of course one of the issues there is voters continue to vote against tax increases and pass tax cut initiatives, even in the face of declining municipal services. The next step for Colorado Springs seems to be to sell off their public utilities and the city hospital.

Shows that smaller cities can have transit alongside the giants...and have popular appeal as well. Well, even rural America had its jitneys from railroad stations to farms and "town".
