City Hall will look once more at the universal student bus pass idea.
The u-pass would add about 3 million dollars to the transit committee's budget.
Students have to agree to the semester cost, estimated at 145 dollars.
That municipal panel is also asking for a 2.7 percent funding increase.
Last week, the recommendation was 2.1 percent.
