I might be the only person who keeps bringing this up but it is critically important to remember that Neil Mcfarlane has conducted a public relations campaign against his own employees and had authorized the secret raises for six figure executives totaling almost a million dollars. He might have the respect of the other oligarchs but he is not deserving of any respect from the general public.
TriMet General Manager Neil McFarlane today told the Board of Directors that restoring the complete Frequent Service network would cost $7.8 million. While the agency does not have the resources to restore all Frequent Service, McFarlane will propose $2.8 million worth of service restoration at the September 25 Board meeting. The added service would become effective in March 2014. “The priority will be on buses and corridors with the most transit-dependent riders,” he said.
Moving toward Frequent Service restoration
We’re off to a remarkable start with the TriMet Tickets app as riders find mobile tickets convenient and easy to use,” said TriMet General Manager Neil McFarlane. “This is just the latest innovation we’ve implemented that benefits our riders, and the improvements will continue as we move toward an electronic fare system in the coming years.”

This is such the easy answer, have the board dedicate $3 mill per year (they already yeilded $13 this year alone in worthless add-ons), thus lowing the comapnies bill to about $4 mill per year. This would actually help the general public and increase ridership, but if it makes sense they will not do it.
