Mỗi ý một nhãn, tổng cộng 5. Tối thiểu là một phiếu.
Có 5 chỗ dành riêng cho các ý bị bỏ sót — đề cử một ý kèm một đường dẫn, và đề cử được tính khi 2 người đồng ý rằng nguồn đó liên quan.
vì sao
Khi giai đoạn kết thúc, một ý được đề cử vào bằng bốc thăm ngẫu nhiên và các ý còn lại theo số lượt đề cử, mỗi thành phần liên quan tối đa một ý. Mô hình chỉ kiểm tra trang có nói về cùng chủ đề hay không — không bao giờ kiểm tra nó có chứng minh được nhận định hay không. Việc đánh giá đó là của cả phòng, và một đề cử không có ai khác ủng hộ thì không được chỗ.
When you file a complaint, someone calls you back with a fix, not just a case number.
When you call, they take your story and give you a number, but the problem stays exactly the same.
I picked #8 first because I have filed complaints for ten years, gotten case numbers back every time, and watched the same broken thing stay broken — that card says exactly what I know is true.

CỤM 1
The capital plan would have a separate, fully funded "accessibility backlog" line item, not just reallocated from fleet purchases.
That’s fine in theory, but the **‘backlog’ line item** in our last budget was $5M—then got cut to $1M when the board approved the new diesel buses, and now we’re telling riders to wait **three years** for a wheelchair lift upgrade at the station they use every day.

The *actual* capital budget would have a **dedicated, unfrozen "accessibility backlog" line**—not just a placeholder that gets slashed when fleet upgrades demand more money.

The lines vulnerable riders rely on would show fewer delays in my models, but I know the data is biased.
My model's lower delay rates for lines vulnerable riders rely on come from missing short-trip records and dropped manual reports, not from actual punctuality.

The routes with the worst delay rates in my models would not be the ones through low-income areas.
The routes with highest modeled delay rates are those with complete sensor data, while low-income routes appear better only due to sparse reporting.

The bus would be on time, every time, and quiet enough for my son.
I mean the bus has to show up when the schedule says it will and be a calm, quiet space, because any surprise or loud noise is what tips my son into a meltdown.

Drivers would know my son is nonverbal and not demand he speak or answer them.
I mean drivers should be told he doesn't talk and should never push him to answer or speak, just let him get on and off without that pressure.

The whole journey—stop, bus, route—would feel the same every single time, so my son knows what's coming.
I mean the stop, the bus, and the whole route need to be exactly the same every day so my son can predict what's next and stay calm.

My models would count the paratransit trips that today vanish from aggregate ridership numbers.
Adding paratransit trips to my ridership model would expose currently hidden demand that aggregate counts omit.

The buses would show up when they say they will.
Buses never come on time, so expecting them to is just setting yourself up for disappointment.

When you file a complaint, someone calls you back with a fix, not just a case number.
When you call, they take your story and give you a number, but the problem stays exactly the same.
The feedback meetings would still be designed so we leave feeling heard, not so things change.
The meetings are set up to let them nod along and feel good about listening, while nothing actually changes for us.

Reliable staffing so gates open, trains run on time, and no one’s left waiting.
If we had the staff, the gates wouldn’t jam, the trains wouldn’t sit idle, and riders wouldn’t be stranded because someone’s shift got cut short.

Staff would have time to help riders with bags, wheelchairs, or confusion—no rushing just to keep the schedule.
Right now, we’re told to move riders fast—no time to help someone who’s lost, or can’t lift their own bag, or needs a minute to breathe.

Frontline staff would have the authority to adjust schedules in real-time when delays hit vulnerable stops—no union rep needed to sign off.**
We shouldn’t need union approval just to keep a train from leaving someone behind when the system’s already broken.

The system would have **enough accessible vehicles on every route, every hour**, so no one waits for one that might not come.
We’d need to **retire half the fleet**—the ones built before the ADA—and replace them all at once, which isn’t happening because the backlog of elevator repairs in stations is already eating into the **$12M we’d need per year** just to keep up with demand, let alone expand.

Every region meets the same accessibility standards, without exceptions.
The standards are uniform, but audits can't confirm on-the-ground realities like broken lifts or driver behavior.

Every region gets investment matching its ridership needs, ensuring no area is underserved.
Investment is allocated based on ridership data, but I can't assess if it addresses local needs.

The compliance standards would be legally enforceable, not just paperwork, with real consequences for noncompliance.
Compliance reports are legally binding, but I can't track the consequences beyond court citations.

It would be reliable, safe, and easy to use for people with disabilities and older adults.
It would reduce the risk of service disruptions that disproportionately affect disabled and elderly riders.

Funding for accessibility upgrades would not be cut last-minute during budget negotiations.
It would prevent last-minute political fights over accessibility funds that often delay or cancel critical upgrades.

Funding for accessibility is protected from annual budget cuts.
It would ensure that accessibility projects aren’t deprioritized when city budgets are tightened each year.
