Moment of Silence - Chair’s Announcement

26-0077

Before we proceed with today’s agenda, I would like to acknowledge the tragic transit

incident involving TRAX that resulted in the loss of six lives and left one individual

seriously injured.

We extend our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones affected, and we

honor the life and service of TRAX driver Kelly Langstaff, whose loss is profoundly felt

by her colleagues and this community.

We also wish to recognize and thank the first responders and emergency personnel

who responded to this horrific incident under extraordinarily difficult circumstances.

Their professionalism, care, and dedication in the face of such tragedy are deeply

appreciated.

Out of respect for those who were lost, those who are injured, those who are grieving,

and those who responded, I ask that we pause for a moment of silence.

Thank you.
