<br /> �` RE: Policy on Felony Canvictions
<br /> � i
<br /> As you requested i have looked at the policics on felony c:onvictions relative to bas drivers, or
<br /> F;r�'' taxi drivers working under contract to the Transit System. I researched the Federal Transit ,
<br /> "
<br /> ;�: Administration's library and didn't find a paticy that prohibits employing felons. The best I,I
<br /> :��' information I found was a reference that many st�tcs have a poticy of not hiring felons. (`Bus
<br /> � and Passenger Accident Prevention", L'S DOT, 3/99,pa�c 17) lllinois has not adopted such a I
<br /> poiicy prohibitin�the hirinb af felons.
<br /> ��'� � I
<br /> I also Iooked at the personnel�rocedures used by our transit managerncnt firm, Pro�ressive '
<br /> ���/ . . .
<br /> �.:
<br /> Transportation Serv�ces. The�r lic mdicates that the firm will not eln lo an one w�ho has
