Always good to see where money is going:
Web Link
Adopted FY2017: $111M of $146M (76%) to pay for employee and administrative costs.
2017 employee costs are 7 to 15% above 2016
2017 employee costs are 15 to 28% above 2015

@Dan
Guess what's expensive and getting more expensive by the month around here, Dan? Housing. Guess what that makes more expensive? Labor costs, since your employees need more money to keep up with housing costs.

It's not hard to understand the failure. It would cost me almost $20 bucks to take the train-and-bus halfway up the peninsula. And that's not including the whopping monthly parking fee.
I could drive it for less than $2 and get to work a lot faster in a car. And I understand they don't even have wi-fi on the train.

"Caltrain representatives will hold a meeting in the Plaza Room at Mountain View City Hall, 500 Castro St., from 6-7 p.m. on Monday, June 26."
LOL how did you expect those of us who commute via Caltrain to make that meeting?
