Bill would strip appointed officials from public boards
Sacramento area bill by Assemblyman Carlos Bee would require public agencies like Bay Area Rapid Transit to have boards composed only of elected officials. Bee cites recent pay raises and a half cent sales tax for BART, arguing boards must be directly responsible to voters. He estimates most of BART’s 12 directors would resign, with other agencies similarly affected.
