    Six earn transit leadership awards

    EPLN Staff ReportsBy EPLN Staff ReportsMarch 24, 2022Updated:March 24, 20221 Min Read
    Pictured left to right are: SouthWest Transit Commissioner Mark Freiberg, Commission Vice Chair PG Narayanan, Third Congressional District Chief of Staff Zach Rodvold, Commission Chair Mike Huang, former commission chair Brad Aho, former COO Dave Jacobson, Bountiful Basket Chair Tom Redman, Edina Mayor Jim Hovland, Commissioner Elise Ryan, commission ex-officio member Joy McKnight; and Commissioner Bob Roepke.

    Recently the SouthWest Transit Commission honored six individuals with the agency’s 2021 Leadership Awards.

    These awards were provided to individuals or elected officials who have supported Eden Prairie-based SouthWest Transit through pro-active leadership, advocacy, and legislative initiatives.

    Award recipients included U.S. Rep. Dean Phillips and his chief of staff, Zach Rodvold; Edina Mayor Jim Hovland; Bountiful Basket Chairman Tom Redman; former SouthWest Transit commission chair, Brad Aho; and former SouthWest Transit chief operating officer, Dave Jacobson.

    SouthWest Transit is the public transit agency for Eden Prairie, Chanhassen, Chaska, and Carver. The commission, which has representatives from each of those cities, is its governing body.
