Federal, state and county taxpayers and proposed Purple Line patrons should know that a public-private partnership brought us the Silver Spring Transit Center; and, a public-private partnership is planned to bring us the Purple Line too. Public-private partnerships are fully endorsed by the Federal Transit Administration and the Maryland Transit Administration. Funding for the SSTC is 53% federal, 11% state and 36% county. 

Hold on to your wallets, folks!
