.The End of Van Hool Buses?

The AC Transit Board of Directors will consider a resolution on Wednesday that could spell the end of the agency’s controversial partnership with Belgian bus-maker, Van Hool. The so-called “Buy America” resolution by board member Elsa Ortiz would direct the agency’s staff to “employ its best efforts” to procure goods made in America, and give first priority to California-made products. According to the Berkeley Daily Planet, the board’s three member Finance and Audit Committee approved the resolution last week.
