When Senate Bill 1263 went into effect September 1, 2009, it made several changes to the composition of the Capital Metro Board. Perhaps the most significant of these changes was the increase in the total number of Capital Metro Board members from seven to eight through the addition of a third CAMPO appointee. In addition, Senate Bill 1263 also required the CAMPO appointees have specific experience. One CAMPO appointee must be an elected official; one must have at least 10 years of experience as a financial or accounting professional; and one must have at least 10 years of experience in an executive-level position.
