摘要：	The 72nd Session of the Nevada Legislature adopted Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 31 (File No. 90, Statutes of Nevada 2003), which directed the Legislative Commission to conduct a preliminary feasibility study of long-range mass transit within the State of Nevada and to large urban areas in neighboring states. The committee was charged with evaluating alternative future transportation systems; factors such as public safety, environmental protection, and efficiency; economic concerns; and infrastructure needs. The committee held a total of five meetings, including a work session, during the course of the study. All meetings were open to the public. Four of the public hearings were conducted through simultaneous videoconferences between legislative meeting rooms at the Grant Sawyer State Office Building in Las Vegas and the Legislative Building in Carson City, Nevada. One meeting was held at the Bristlecone Conference Center in Ely, which did not have videoconferencing capability. During the course of the interim study, the Committee reviewed a variety of issues related to mass transit. The committee received extensive expert testimony regarding various transportation systems. At the fifth and final meeting, members conducted a work session at which they adopted nine recommendations, five of which are bill draft requests. The recommendations address the following topics: funding for transportation programs; continuing the study of long-range mass transit needs in Nevada; Magnetic Levitation Technology; providing transportation services for senior citizens; and supporting bike and pedestrian safety.
