He submitted his resignation to Mayor Andy Berke, who will name his replacement on the board.
Mr. Jett said it was especially time for new leadership since CARTA is embarking on an effort to redesign its whole system.
He said new leadershiip would bring "fresh energy" to that project.
His last meeting will be in December.
