8th District City Councilwoman Reva Trammell is now the chairman of the Richmond Capital Region Taxicab Advisory Board.

According to an article in Style Weekly:

Trammell, first appointed to the board in December, will lead the advisory body in developing recommendations for amending and administering taxicab rates and laws, identifying and recommending solutions to taxi-related issues and coordinating local law enforcement programs.

In addition to Richmond, other localities and groups represented on the board include Henrico, Chesterfield and Hanover counties, the Capital Region Airport Commission, the business community and the taxicab industry.

Ms. Trammell has always been a strong supporter of business development for her district. At the 8th district council forum she announced that a Hilton hotel will be built in her district.
