Governor Brad Little announced his appointment of Paul Franz Wednesday to serve as the District 1 representative on the Idaho Transportation Board.
Franz is a professional engineer and recently retired from his position as the performance manager for the northwest region for CRH, a provider of building materials solutions. Franz is a past president and active board member of the Idaho Associated General Contractors. He has a strong record of community involvement and volunteerism.
“Paul Franz has the personal and professional qualities to help Idaho advance historic investments in transportation to keep up with the needs of our rapidly growing state. I appreciate his willingness to serve the people of Idaho on the transportation board,” Governor Little said.
Franz’s nomination was heard in committee Tuesday. The board establishes state transportation policy and guides the planning, development, and management of a transportation network that is safe, efficient and enhances Idaho’s economy and quality of life.
