Board Meetings

METRO is governed by a 12-member Board of Trustees. The Board meets monthly at 9 a.m. Due to COVID-19, all Board meetings are virtual. 

These meetings are open to the public. If you would like to voice a comment or concern during the monthly Board meeting, you must notify METRO prior to the meeting.

Persons wishing to address the Board may take two (2) minutes to speak on any given topic on the agenda. Anyone desiring more time than provided should notify the Board Secretary-Treasurer by the Tuesday preceding the Board meeting. He or she may then be placed on the agenda for a maximum of five (5) minutes.

Monthly board packets are posted below. Packets from the previous year can be found on our downloads page.
