Vice Chairman Jerry Amante was unanimously selected Monday as the new chairman of the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) board of directors. He will replace outgoing chairman Peter Buffa, who continues to serve on the board as one of two public members.
Fifth District Supervisor Pat Bates will replace Amante as vice chair. Amante joined the OCTA board of directors in December 2006. He serves as the chair of the Central County Corridor Major Investment Study Policy Advisory Committee, vice chair of the Finance and Administration Committee and as a member of the Executive Committee, the Highways Committee, the Transportation 2020 Committee, and the State Route 91 Advisory Committee.
“I’m honored that my colleagues have selected me to lead this agency
and I look forward to a challenging and successful year in keeping our
residents moving,” says Amante. “Achieving our goals will require
overcoming unprecedented economic obstacles as we seek innovative ways
to ensuring Orange County remains an ideal place to live, work and
visit.”
