The newly built Graton Casino in Rohnert Park should provide a free bus system for the SSU college students. This will provide a safe and free mode of transportation for the students at all hours until 2 A.M. The bus system will provide a free ride home and to class for the students as well as encourage the students to shop locally.

Why Graton should

The facts

There would be an immense amount of potential for the students to use the casinos facilities, such as the clubs, restaurants, events, and other future amenities
The Casino would be offering the students, who represent much of the future skilled labor force a great avenue for career success at Rohnert Parks largest business
The Casino is already reaping a mass amount of success well being seen as something of a controversial enterprise
With an estimated first-year revenue of $328.5 million and estimated 7th year of $392 million A bus system could easily be fit into the budget

Local businesses catering towards SSU students would benefit from more consumer traffic
Access to local nightlife would grow as well as become more safe
A legitimate and safe transportation to local business offering social night life environments to the students would provide incentive for alternatives to student house parties
Students reveling and transporting themselves safely would allow Rohnert Park's police force to focus their resources on more pressing issues, such as burglary, narcotics, and domestic violence, all of which require attention in the city
Development of Rohnert Park's destinations for young people would surely help with retention of SSU graduates, a huge share of whom leave the city soon after graduation for better opportunities
