Re (14) if the LWV forum is typical, they’ll allow questions to be submitted in writing from the audience but no other public participation. Best bet is to go to the AAATA board meeting and put in both a request for service and for clarification. Sometimes this board is a little more informal than other boards and a question might get answered.

The new plan includes a route 12G, the “North Maple Connector” that will run along Maple, from Skyline High south, stopping at Maple Village and Westgate shopping centers, ending at Pinelake Village Co-op housing, on Maple about half way between Liberty and Pauline. So from your neighborhood north of Miller you would take the 12D out Miller to Maple, and then get the 12G down Maple to Westgate.

The AAATA has done individual documents for each Ward of the city showing the new routes that would pass through them. Here’s the one for Ward 5, which covers their area Ms’s Armentrout and Estabrook are referring to: [link]

Here’s the page for for the whole Plan, with links to the info for each ward: [link]

Re (8) I was making a surmise about convenience to Park and Ride customers, but the reconfigured 12 (replaces 18), shown as D on the preliminary maps, is a straight shoot both directions from the Miller P&R to downtown. It cuts the loop that did allow travel from Miller down Maple (12A) but perhaps lengthened travel from the P&R. A little difficult to tell from the maps how that 12A/12B loop worked for P&R users.
