Editing C-Tran (Washington) (section)

=== C-Tran redistricting and new C-Tran benefit area ballot measure ===
On June 1, 2005, the boundaries of the Clark County Public Transit Benefit Area were reduced from the whole [[Clark County, Washington|Clark County]] to the area including only the cities of Vancouver, Camas, Washougal, Ridgefield, [[La Center, Washington|La Center]], Battle Ground and [[Yacolt, Washington|Yacolt]], as well as the [[unincorporated area]]s surrounding Vancouver.  This was done so that, unlike in the failed 2004 Proposition 1, only those who would benefit from C-Tran services will vote on any future ballot measure to secure new funding for the transit service.

C-Tran proposed a special election in September 2005 to decide on whether residents within the new C-Tran benefit area would pay an additional 0.2% (from 7.7% to 7.9% in Vancouver) [[sales tax]] to maintain the current C-Tran service level.

The measure passed by a wide majority. The agency continues to operate, and now with fresh funding, is expanding.
