Best Performance by a City Board

Urban Transportation Commission

Urban Trans' job is hard enough -- trying to give useful advice on a huge sticky issue where nobody, but nobody, is happy with the status quo. But like many city boards, Urban Trans has assumed the role of City Hall's conscience, staying focused on the city's vision through the thick political fog, which is even murkier where transportation is concerned. The city could do worse than to follow its lead.
