Transit Board to Interview for Public Members

Transit Board to Interview for Public Members
The San Mateo County Transit District Board of Directors will soon begin interviewing applicants for Public Board Member
positions from the Southern and Central, and Coastside regions
of the county. The deadline for applications for the Southern
and Central regions was Dec. 31, 2005. Applications for the
Coastside position will be accepted until Friday,
Jan. 20, at 5 p.m. The application is available
here.
“I’m thrilled to see this level of interest in civic participation,”
said Jerry Hill, outgoing chair of the transit district board and newly
elected president of the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors.
“We received 26 applications, which is unprecedented, and affirms
the wisdom of the new diversity policy the board adopted last year.
This group of applicants brings interesting and varied qualifications
and backgrounds. It will be difficult to choose.”
The board is comprised of nine members. Three are appointed by
the county board of supervisors, three are appointed by the cities
selection committee, and three public members are appointed
by the other six transit district board members.
The board expects to appoint both new public members at its
Feb. 22 meeting, at 1250 San Carlos Ave., in San Carlos.
