Tom Nolan, chairman of the board of the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA), on April 30 issued the following statement congratulating Cheryl Brinkman on her reappointment as vice chair of the SFMTA Board of Directors.
“Cheryl Brinkman is a champion for transit and sustainable modes of transportation and her reappointment to the MTA Board of Director symbolizes this city’s commitment to achieving our transit first goals. Her work thus far has resulted in the support of effective policies, strong community partnerships, and sustainable strategies that have ultimately improved our transportation network. I certainly look forward to relying on her valuable experience and insight as a regular transit rider and transporation advocate as we work to secure two transportation funding measures on the November 2014 ballot. These potential new and stable funding sources would help support smoother roads, improved transit reliability, reduced crowding on Muni, pedestrian safety enhancements, and better defined bikeways.”
Brinkman was sworn in by Mayor Ed Lee April 30.
