Washington County’s Department of Land Use and Transportation is beginning the process of updating the County’s Transportation Plan. On December 20, the Washington County Board of Commissioners appointed two advisory committees to assist in the update process:
- A 22-member Interagency Coordinating Committee (ICC) consisting of Washington County local government and service provider representatives, and
- An 18-member Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC)
Both committees will meet periodically with project staff to help evaluate and guide the plan update, which is expected to occur over the next 18-24 months.
The Board’s objective for the CAC was to achieve balanced representation from a range of transportation system stakeholder interests and a range of citizen perspectives from throughout the County. The Committee for Citizen Involvement and the leadership of Washington County Citizen Participation Organizations assisted in the process by reviewing CAC applications and offering recommendations to the Board. We received more than 35 applications from citizens willing to serve on the CAC, and we truly appreciate the commitment of all those who applied. Ultimately, the Board appointed the following CAC members:
