More honors came in May 2001 to Lawrence D. Dahms, who retired in December 2000 after 23 years as MTC's executive director. The California Transportation Foundation named Dahms "Person of the Year" at the organization's 12th annual Tranny Awards banquet in Sacramento. The foundation, whose purpose is to promote and recognize excellence in transportation, cited Dahms' efforts to launch a number of pioneering initiatives at the local level, including the TransLink® universal transit smart card that will debut later this year, as well as his leadership role with a number of state and national transportation organizations.
