Lawlor Statement on Metra
Board Electing Lake County’s Norm Carlson as Chair
Lake County Board Chairman Aaron Lawlor said, "Over the past few years, Metra has worked hard to regain the
public’s trust, put the agency on stronger financial footing and make important
operational changes to modernize the agency. Norm has been an important part
of these efforts. As Chairman of the Metra Board, I know Norm will put
his more than 30 years of railroad and transportation expertise to work on
behalf of Metra’s riders and the Chicago region’s taxpayers. As the Metra
Chairmanship rotates back from the City of Chicago and Cook County to the
Collar Counties, Norm will bring strong suburban leadership that recognizes that
the vibrancy of our region relies on both a successful Chicago and thriving
suburbs."
