TriMet Board of Directors

TriMet is governed by a seven-member Board of Directors, appointed by the Governor of Oregon.

Board members represent, and must live in, certain geographical districts. The term of office is four years, but a Board member serves at the pleasure of the Governor. The Board sets agency policy, enacts legislation (taxing and ordinances relating to policy ordinances), and reviews certain contracts.
