Keep Uber in Palm Beach County

[You can read Jesse Bailey's take on Uber here. He writes for the Walkable West Palm blog.]

On Tuesday, the Palm Beach Board of County Commissioners will discuss new ridesharing regulations. Entrenched special interests are trying to corrupt the sensible framework currently in place that has been working so well for the community. They want the Commission to make changes that would threaten Uber’s ability to continue operating in Palm Beach County.

Make your voice heard by letting Commissioners know what access to safe, reliable transportation means to you: Contact your Commissioner.

Palm Beach County has been a leader in Florida on this issue, with a Temporary Operating Agreement in place that ensures local entrepreneurs can continue to earn a living and residents have access to safe, reliable transportation options. These benefits would be secure if the Commission passes the same framework into law.

More than 20 U.S. states and dozens of other counties and cities have passed modern, sensible ridesharing legislation that creates a permanent home for Uber. Help us make sure the Commission doesn’t eliminate your access to safe, affordable transportation options in Palm Beach County.
