I would like to take this opportunity to respond to the Article in the Frontenac News dated 23 January 2020 “Senior rues the pending loss of transportation services”.

In that article Mayor Ron Vandewal said that Rural Frontenac Community Services has not provided County Council with statistics and a business plan. This was alarming to read as we have provided a business plan and quarterly reports. In 2018 Frontenac County Council asked Frontenac Transportation Services for a business plan. We contacted Freshsite Queens University and asked them to work with us to create a business plan. It was completed December 2018 and was presented to Frontenac County Council in January 2019. Frontenac Transportation has been submitting reports quarterly to Frontenac County Council, which include all the statistics and program costs. These reports are available to anyone who is interested in receiving them. Rural Frontenac Community Services and Frontenac Transportation Services are committed to keeping transportation available to all residents of the County.
