Transportation Contract Coming Due In Lee County

Fort Madison, IA – Lee County will have a couple of options to choose from when it comes to providing transportation for certain residents. CPC Administrator Ryanne Wood says 2 companies have shown an interest in providing services for the county's residents with mental health and other developmental disabilities. They are Ottumwa-based 10-15 Regional Transit Agency, which is currently serving Lee County, and Burlington-based SEIBUS. Wood says whichever service the county contracts with would provide transportation to locations such as shelter workshops, counseling services, and the county drop-in center. The county's current 3-year deal with 10-15 runs out in June.
