Citizen Oversight Panel
Citizen Oversight Panel Report
Public involvement principles
The RTA will work with local public transportation agencies, local jurisdictions and agencies to create an open public involvement process with ample opportunities to inform and involve the community. Citizens and groups will have extensive opportunities to interact with, and receive a response from, appointed and elected officials on issues of interest or concern. The RTA will ensure that:
- citizens have access to the planning process
- citizens' input is actively sought at all stages of planning and development
- a representative cross-section of interests is engaged
- all programs and activities are publicized and the proceedings and records made available
- for public review
- citizens have opportunities to affect decisions before they are finalized
- citizens' inquiries, suggestions and ideas are answered or accounted for in the
- decision-making process.
Watch this space for a calendar of meetings. Coming soon.
