Discuss and take appropriate action on rescinding Williamson County's Capital Metro appointment from January 31, 2017 and reappoint Norm Chafetz as the County's representative to the Capital Metro Board of Directors to serve from June 1, 2017 to May 31, 2020. 

During the January 31, 2017 Court session, Commissioners Court approved a re-appointment to the Capital Metro Board of Directors. Unfortunately, the beginning date of the appointment was wrong, and so, this item needs to come back to Court for action. The motion stated the beginning date of appointment to start on July 1, 2017, when in fact, the beginning date is supposed to be June 1, 2017.

The current appointee, however, has missed 1/3 of all meetings of the board (15 meetings missed out of 46), since being sworn in July 2014. With the expansion of Capital Metro into Round Rock this summer, it is vitally important to have consistent Williamson County representation on the Board of Directors. Norm Chafetz served this county well on the Capital Metro Board of Directors from December 2009 to May 2014, and he received unanimous support from the Williamson County Commissioners Court every time he was brought forward for (re-)appointment. He deserves to be re-appointed again.
