BUSINESS CASE: Does not apply
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: This item was presented and recommended for approval by the Operations, Planning and Safety Committee on March 12, 2025.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: In 2010, each of the committees of the Board of Directors adopted Committee Charter Statements defining their areas of responsibility. A periodic review of these charters was requested by the Board upon adoption and allows the committees to ensure that the charters still meet the needs and parameters of each committee. This charter was last reviewed by the Board in December, 2023.
After reviewing the Charter, staff’s only recommendation is updating the name of the agency from “Capital Metro” to “CapMetro” to reflect current branding. No other substantive changes are suggested.
