Mario Orso, a chief deputy at CALTRANS covering the San Diego region, will be the new CEO at the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), the agency presiding over the region’s long-term transit and highway plans. SANDAG serves as a central resource for the region, collecting data on quality of life issues and the environment. The agency has, in recent years, acquired a reputation for bending the truth on financial projections, poor contract management of an existing toll system, and daring to consider a future less dependent on fossil fuel-based transportation.
