Now in her second term as an at-large city council member, Alcorn was a city staffer at the time and was quick to take advantage of a transportation option that was both new and promising for a historically car-centric city where traffic jams and parking lots could be considered part of the culture.
"I remember my first trip. I had to take something over …
