The Linn County Board of Commissioners voted this week to spend more than $8 million on special transportation services in the county for the 2023-25 biennium — but Albany officials don't believe they're getting their fair share.The Statewide Transportation Improvement Fund Plan totals $8,016,065 and will be used to provide buses and vans, as well as support existing systems and expansion projects, for transportation providers in Albany, Lebanon, Sweet Home and unincorporated areas of the county.
