A small portion of it would be offset by not incurring the incremental cost of collecting Q70 revenue.Ultimately, it seems to me that this is a question of what LaGuardia offers its users as amenities, and the most persuasive argument might be equality. For motorists, LaGuardia offers "free" bus service between the passenger terminals and the parking lots. For taxi users, LaGuardia offers "free" dispatching service. "Equality" might mean either (1) no fare on the Q70 bus service between the passenger terminals and the subway station, or (2) collecting a fee from passengers using the bus service between the passenger terminals and the parking lots, and from passengers using the airport taxi dispatch service. In any case, given that these schemes are for the purpose of providing amenities at LaGuardia, the cost is properly attributable to the PANYNJ, not the MTA. |
