NORTHWOODS - Public transit in the Northwoods could be very different soon. Oneida, Vilas, and Forest counties are working together on a commission to better public transportation between the counties.
County lawyers are currently looking over the commission's charter. Once all three counties sign off on the charter, it'll be sent to each county's board for final approval.
"One of their first duties will be to hire a transit manager--a professional who is experienced in this area who will be able to make better use of the vehicles being operated," says Diane Jacobson of the Oneida County Department on Aging.
