TAG: Murray’s it Bill Murray is the new chair of the Transportation Advisory Group. Murray takes over from Councillor Nancy Wilhelm-Morden. Wilhelm-Morden resigned from TAG and announced she was cutting back her council commitments last week. Her announcement came following the death of Robert McIntosh, a lawyer for Race Company, the firm Wilhelm-Morden works for. Wilhelm-Morden will be assuming much of McIntosh’s case load for the next few months. Murray, a former municipal councillor, was a member of TAG until his defeat in the November, 1996 municipal election. He was re-appointed to the group last year as a member of the public. Ted Milner is the new council representative on TAG. Mayor Hugh O’Reilly will continue to sit in on meetings, too.
