Public Committees
Citizens Advisory Committee
The Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) actively participates in helping examine traffic solutions, providing input to OCTA’s transportation studies and communicating with their constituencies. During the year, committee members are asked to participate in roundtable discussions and hear special presentations on various transportation projects, programs and services.
Major Responsibilities Include:
- Identifying opportunities for community input
- Recommending mechanisms and methodologies for obtaining public opinion on specific transportation issues
- Serving as a liaison between the public and OCTA
- Commenting on significant transportation issues and suggesting possible solutions
2025 Recruitment Period
Each year, as terms of various members expire, a recruitment process is conducted to fill vacant positions on the CAC. Applications will be accepted for the 2025-2026 Citizens Advisory Committee spring of 2025.
CAC Members are appointed by the OCTA Board of Directors, which consists of 17 governing members across Orange County, plus the Caltrans District Director (serving in an ex-officio capacity). While all submitted applications are shared with Board members, final selections are made in June at their discretion.
