Saunders Named to Regional Independent Authority
The Lackawanna County Board of Commissioners recently named Steve Saunders to a seat on the County of Lackawanna Transit System (“COLTS”) Board of Directors. The independent authority board consists of five members who oversee the management of the County’s transportation system. Currently, COLTS is developing a multi-million dollar inter-modal center that will act as the hub for regional bus line connections and eventually, the planned commuter rail service from Scranton to New York City. Saunders was named Vice Chairman of the Board when it reorganized in January of 2009.
