The Bis-Man Transit Board is accepting applications for an open position on its board, with one year remaining on the term.
The Bis-Man Transit Board oversees the door-to-door paratransit service, as well as the fixedroute Capital Area Transit (CAT) system, and the Jefferson Lines Bus Depot at the Bis-Man Transit Center.
“The importance of the transit board has grown with the organization,” said board President Marge Ellefson. “We are a multi-million-dollar organization, and subsequently many of the decisions we deal with potentially have some far-reach effects. It is a lot of work, but I think our board members would also tell you it is very rewarding.”
The Board meets monthly, coming together on the fourth Thursday of each month, with the luncheon meetings traditionally beginning at about 11:30 a.m. Meetings are held at the Bis-Man Transit Center, located at 3750 East Rosser Ave., in Bismarck, North Dakota.
Individuals interested in joining the Board can download the application at the BisMan website by navigating over the Paratransit navigation tab, and selecting the board of director’s page. The link to the application is at the bottom of the page. Applicants are encouraged to attend the May 28 meeting, to become more familiar with the Board. A vote will be held to fill the position during the June 25 meeting.
