On May 25, New York City Council’s Committee on Rules, Privileges, and Elections confirmed three new commissioners to serve on the Taxi & Limousine Commission (TLC) Board. The Committee also reconfirmed Commissioner Thomas Sorrentino.
These are the three new TLC Board
Commissioners:
Paul Bader was an NYC taxi driver from 1970 to 1980 and is founder of City Imprint & New York Prints. He also worked at the Comptroller’s Office.
- Kenneth Y.K. Chan is an intellectual property lawyer, technology executive and real estate-focused entrepreneur.
- Sarah Kaufman is a transportation and urban planning academic at Rudin Center for Transportation and board member at Transportation Alternatives.
Once approved, TLC Commissioners generally serve a seven-year term. However, two of the three nominees – Kenneth Y.K. Chan and Sarah Kaufman – are being appointed to existing terms. This means Mr. Chan’s term expires in January 2024 and Mrs. Kaufman’s in January 2026.
