This week’s poll dives into a major debate surrounding the C-TRAN Board of Directors. Clark County Council recently removed Michelle Belkot from the board after she refused to align with the council’s stance on light rail funding. Now, a proposed bylaw change could require board members to vote collectively with the council, potentially limiting independent decision-making. Supporters argue that a unified vote ensures consistency and accountability, while critics say it strips board members of the ability to represent their constituents. What do you think? Should C-TRAN board members be required to vote as a bloc, or should they maintain their independence? Cast your vote and let us know your thoughts!
