Board unanimously reappoints Phoebe Ford as District 4 representative to Community Advisory Committee
Summary
The Transportation Authority reappointed Phoebe Ford to the Board's Community Advisory Committee for District 4 in an 11-0 vote; Ford spoke remotely to express continued interest in representing Sunset District families, businesses and commuters.
The Transportation Authority voted Sept. 9 to reappoint Phoebe Ford as the District 4 representative to the Authority's 11-member Community Advisory Committee. Commissioner Engardio moved the renomination and Commissioner Dorsey seconded; the clerk recorded 11 ayes and the motion passed.
Amelia Wally (staff) described the appointment process: CAC members serve two-year terms, applicants must be San Francisco residents and appear before the board to describe their interest and qualifications. Commissioner Engardio praised Ford's service as a "sunset parent and multimodal transportation user" and said she would represent businesses, young families and seniors in District 4.
Ford appeared remotely and said she had developed a deeper understanding of public financing and priority projects during her two years on the CAC and that she would continue to advocate for safe streets and investments that help parents and commuters in the Sunset District. There was no public comment on the nomination.
Why it matters: The appointment fills the District 4 seat on the Community Advisory Committee, which provides community feedback on the Transportation Authority's policies and project priorities.
Next steps: Staff will complete the appointment paperwork and the CAC will receive Ford's next report at the usual cadence.
