Dear Chairman Perdue,

I was trying to reach out to you via your campaign website for your re-election, but I can’t seem to find an email address to reach you. I’m a Houston County resident living in Byron, Georgia, and I have some questions in regards to public transportation in Houston County.

As you may be aware, there’s no accessible, affordable, and reliable public transportation in Houston County. While I thank you for making sure that we have good roads in Houston County, I’m very concerned in regards to no movement for a public transit system in the county. The population in Houston County is estimated to be over 100,000 people and growing.

I’ve also sent a letter to you and other governmental officials in the area back in October of 2024 regarding this issue.. Here’s my questions in regards to public transportation:

  1. If you’re re-elected as the Chairman of the Houston County Commissioner, will you promise to make sure that we implement an accessible, affordable, and reliable public transit system in the county?
  2. If yes, how will you implement this system? Will you be implementing a pilot program to test this system out before it goes fully live to the public?
  3. If we can’t implement a full public transit system, will you look into other affordable options for residents of Houston County, such as affordable on-demand Rapid Transit services?

If you have any questions, please let me know by replying to this email. I hope to hear from you soon at your earliest convenience.

Thank you.

Respectfully,
Armando Vias
