Objective of the present research is to examine the origination of financial support programs for public transit which support six systems in five states. In addition to reviewing the process which led to the structures, the study attempts to extract the common and continuing themes which pervade those processes and isolate them for comment. The systems examined in this study are: Alameda-Contra Costa Transit District (AC Transit), Oakland, CA; Capital Area Transit (CAT), Raleigh, NC; Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA), Atlanta, GA; Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle (METRO), Seattle, WA; New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJ Transit), Newark, NJ; and, San Francisco Municipal Railway (MUNI), San Francisco, CA.
