The Allen County Regional Transit Authority is doing better after some time has passed with the government reopened.

The RTA board of trustees held their monthly meeting today and finances were much of the agenda. Board president, Brad Taylor, confirmed their federal grants are unfrozen and they can pull down what they need. They did receive an advance from the city to help them out and the Allen County Commissioners offered a $100,000 loan but the RTA said it isn't necessary right now. Taylor is taking things day by day and isn't too concerned yet about another shutdown.
