Volunteer by April 10 for Two OCTA Public Committees

OCTA would like your help filling positions on two public committees. Applications are due April 10. Members are appointed by the OCTA Board of Directors.

Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) members provide input on a broad spectrum of transportation projects, studies and outreach activities. During their two-year terms, they identify opportunities for community input, recommend methods for obtaining public feedback on specific transportation issues, serve as a liaison between the public and OCTA and participate in roundtable discussions. Potential committee members should demonstrate a history of participating in community activities and transportation issues and be willing to dedicate at least 15 hours per year to OCTA meetings and activities. Applications are available here. For additional information, please contact Emily Mason at (714) 560-5421 or emason@octa.net.

Special Needs Advisory Committee (SNAC) members advise OCTA on a variety of transportation issues, including OCTA’s special needs transit service for persons with disabilities. Applicants should demonstrate an involvement with persons with disabilities and/or senior citizens, an interest in transportation, and a willingness to dedicate no less than 12 hours annually to OCTA meetings and activities during a three-year term. For additional information and to request an application, visit here or contact Ryan Maloney at (714) 560-5451 or rmaloney@octa.net.
