Supporters of a $13.5 billion transit plan have taken a "step back" to build support. There's no timeline for a sales tax vote, but it's still possible for 2022.

In February, Charlotte planning director Taiwo Jaiyeoba discussed with City Council and the media a poll of Mecklenburg County residents who don't live in Charlotte. He focused on their support for a $8 billion to $12 billion transportation plan. He did not talk about how those voters have other priorities or that they prefer money be spent on roads instead of buses and trains.

The Charlotte City Council transportation committee voted 4-1 Wednesday to advance a $8 to $12 billion transportation plan.
