City CarShare has turned to a veteran of the local transportation scene to provide leadership for the fledgling nonprofit organization: Lawrence D. Dahms, who served as MTC’s executive director for 23 years until he retired in December 2000. Dahms will chair the board of directors for a term of one year.

Launched in 2001 and based in San Francisco, City CarShare offers short-term rental cars as a way of reducing car ownership and usage, while improving the environment and city life. The 3,000 members have 24-hour access to over 75 late-model cars at nearly 40 locations throughout the Bay Area for $2 to $4 per hour and 44 cents per mile.
