Councilmember Trachtenberg was the guest at last evening’s meeting of the Montgomery County Commission on People with Disabilities that took place at the Executive Office Building (EOB). The discussion focused on the current budget crisis and the potential cuts to services and how more needed to be done to address the unique needs of this community.
Two areas that were mentioned were the transportation challenges and the need for developers to do a better job of accommodating the physical challenges that exist for people with a wide range of disabilities. The Commission voted unanimously in favor of the proposed Montgomery County Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Transport fee.
