MTC's Executive Director To Retire
After 23 years at the helm of MTC, Lawrence D. Dahms has announced that he will retire at the end of the year.

Dahms joined MTC in 1977, seven years after the agency's founding. He steered MTC's growth from a relatively unknown entity with a primary focus on planning to a prominent regional body in charge of directly disbursing, or approving the spending of, more than $1 billion a year in local, regional, state and federal transportation moneys.

For a look back at Dahms' career, see the next issue of Transactions.
