๐ŸšŒ Free ride ahead

Dublin • March 25, 2025

โ€‹

Good morning, Dublin. Free public transit could be on the horizon for Columbus if City Council candidate Jesse Vogel has his way. His proposal to eliminate COTA's $2 fare aims to boost ridership while helping low-income residents, following successful models in cities like Albuquerque and Iowa City. Though it would require finding ways to offset the $12.2 million in annual fare revenue, the idea has already gained support from former COTA board member Robert Weiler.

Love was in full bloom at the historic Municipal Light Plant as Abigail and Eric Knopp recently exchanged vows in a ceremony captured for the Spring 2025 issue of Columbus Weddings. From the bride's stunning gown from Lovely Bride to floral arrangements by Leaf to Bloom, every detail of their special day showcased the beauty of the restored venueโ€”including their cake from Three Cakes Bakery and the touching moment they signed their marriage certificate.

๐ŸšŒ Columbus candidate campaigns to make COTA bus rides completely free. Jesse Vogel, running for Columbus City Council District 7, believes eliminating the $2 fare would boost ridership and help low-income residents. While city council can't directly implement this policy, they appoint most of COTA's board members and could increase city funding to offset the approximately $12.2 million in annual fare revenue. Similar fare-free systems already exist in cities like Albuquerque and Iowa City, with former COTA board member Robert Weiler supporting Vogel's proposal.
