Thank You!
The Ride of Your Life Capital Campaign is a success thanks to the many generous gifts from community members, foundations, businesses and various public sources. At the Dec. 15 Board of Directors meeting, Jon Kottke, chair of the capital campaign steering committee, officially announced the successful completion of the campaign and recognized members of the steering committee for their hard work. Members of Special Transit’s Board of Directors were also recognized and thanked. For a list of steering committee members and major donors to the capital campaign, click here.
Special Transit will occupy its new facility (debt-free!) on Jan. 10, 2011. While we don’t anticipate any disruptions in scheduling rides or conducting other business, we thank everyone in advance for their cooperation and patience during this transition.

About the New Facility
The $11.6 million project doubles the size of Special Transit’s current facility from 18,000 to 36,000 square feet and expands its footprint from 1.3 to 6.8 acres. Designed by OZ Architecture, the innovative building is a model for green building including aspects such as a solar panel array, low VOC interior finishes for better indoor air quality, energy efficient exterior glass that provides natural light, water reducing plumbing fixtures, extensive use of recycled content materials, a radiant floor slab in the garage/maintenance area, xeriscaping, high efficiency heating and cooling with a heat recovery system, and self-dimming and occupancy sensing lighting. Golden Triangle Construction is the general contractor.
