I voted against it because I couldn't get a decent answer to one question: Why, under the RTA plan, would there still be four regional transportation agencies involved? Why not just dissolve SMART/DDOT/etc... and bring all the services together under one agency?

To me, the RTA as planned would have been another layer of bureaucracy on top of four other stacks of bureaucracy. In extremely siloed organizations like that you end up with more in-fighting over resources than cooperation.
