The applicant, Barbara Pahre, has served as the BOS representative on the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway, and Transportation District for twenty-four years since first being appointed on August 8, 2000. During this time, Ms. Pahre has assumed numerous leadership roles at the District, such as Chair of the Rules Committee, and Vice Chair of the Finance Committee.
Based in San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway, and Transportation District operates the Golden Gate Bridge and two public transit systems: Golden Gate Transit buses and Golden Gate Ferry. The mission of the District is to provide safe and reliable operation, maintenance, and enhancement of the Golden Gate Bridge and to provide transportation services, as resources allow, for customers within the U.S. Highway 101 Golden Gate Corridor.
The District is led by a nineteen-member Board of Directors representing the six counties that make up the District: San Francisco, Marin, Sonoma, Napa, Mendocino, and Del Norte. In addition, five Officers of the District, Division Managers, and Department Heads assist in implementing District policy.
