Strengthening Transit Through Community Partnerships
The seven-member CTA board recently marked the end of longtime transit advocate and CNT vice president for policy Jacky Grimshaw's five-year tenure. Grimshaw likely will be replaced with Arabel Alva Rosales, CEO of technology firm A. Alva Rosales & Associates and former Illinois Human Rights commissioner. Other board members and CTA President Forrest Claypool offered their thanks to Grimshaw for her public service.
"This is a sad day for us losing Jacky on the board," said Claypool, who called Grimshaw a "tremendous public servant."
