The Planning Committee provides professional and technical direction to the GTC Board. It is comprised of transportation and planning technical professionals, appointed by GTC Board members. Following input from various other committees, the Planning Committee reviews and recommends action on activities and work products to the GTC Board for final approval.
Each Planning Committee meeting is open to the public. Individuals may offer comments on meeting agenda items at the beginning and the end of all meetings. The Committee will consider comments before acting or making recommendations to the GTC Board.
