Task force co-chairs are New Hope Mayor W. Peter Enck and Mayor Joy Tierney, Plymouth. Other members include: Karen Anderson, Minnetonka; Cathy Busho, Rosemount; Tom Gamec, Ramsey; Sue Gehrz, Falcon Heights; Mary Hamann-Roland, Apple Valley; William Hargis, Woodbury; Elizabeth Kautz, Burnsville; Randy Kelly, St. Paul; Jay Kimble, Stillwater; Dennis Maetzold, Edina; William Mars, Shakopee; Sandy Martin, Shoreview; Lonni McCauley, Coon Rapids; Thomas Ryan, Blaine; R.T. Rybak, Minneapolis; Robert Roepke, Chaska; Mark Steffenson, Maple Grove; and Nancy Tyra-Lukens, Eden Prairie.
