Colleagues, It’s been a great honor and pleasure for me to serve as RCAC Chair again this year. Thank you all for your support, your contributions, and your hard work to make the Citizen Advisory Councils effective voices for Raleigh residents. I couldn’t have done it without you, and I greatly enjoyed the interplay of ideas articulated on every issue. We are successful because we work together. I am particularly proud of the strategic pyramid of vision and mission that we forged together and detailed over 2013. I hope we put them into practice to build an even better community of shared values and principles. As Raleigh continues to grow, we need to flex the CACs to meet the evolving needs of its citizens. I look forward to attending RCAC meetings in 2014 as often as possible. The Raleigh City Council appointed me today to the Triangle Transit Board of Trustees, a role that will require a good deal of my time, but I will continue to serve as Hillsborough CAC Chair next year, and I look forward to seeing you all and continuing to work together to perfect the citizen experience. Please join me in 2014 to support our new RCAC Chair. Sincerely, and wishing you all a healthy, happy, and prosperous New Year, Will William A.
