A report from BART's inspector general is raising questions about the way the transit agency works with its contractors and is spending its money.
One of the key findings in the inspector general's report focuses on BART's 16th and 24th Street stations in San Francisco. The agency contracted with the Salvation Army from July 2020 to July 2022 to do outreach there for unhoused people during the pandemic. Norton says they enjoyed working with BART for those two years. But he says there was some confusion about what exactly BART was expecting his agency to do with the $250,000 it granted.
