(1) The purpose of this rule is to provide detailed procedures for public participation and hearings in certain situations involving the location and design of a mass rapid transit system. A hearing on the location of the route of the proposed system is called a "corridor public hearing." A hearing on the major design features of the proposed system is called a "design public hearing."
