McGlashan Dies; SMART Board Member Since 2005

Charles McGlashan, 49, vice chairman of the Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit (SMART) Board of Directors, died March 27 of an apparent heart attack during a ski trip to Lake Tahoe.

McGlashan had served on the Marin County Board of Supervisors since 2005. He represented the Third District in the southern part of the county, which includes Mill Valley, Marin City, Belvedere, Strawberry, Sausalito, Tam Valley, and Tiburon. He was a strong supporter of environmental causes.

SMART Community Outreach Manager Chris Coursey called McGlashan “a passionate champion of the SMART project….He was front and center in the campaign to win funding for SMART in 2008, and worked tirelessly since then to keep SMART on schedule for a 2014 opening.”
