Sr leadership at ST & Metro will review any request by law enforcement to disrupt service, except w/ an immediate and serious threat.

@MikeLindblom thank you. This came up at 36th Legislative Town Hall yesterday. We said you were meeting today to address protocol. -
Plz note that
@kcexec said transit leaders will review requests, not that they must do so & approve prior to granting request.

-
Also, where can public read about referenced "legal requirement to honor requests" by police to suspend public transit service?
