Title

Consider and take action on replacing the alternate voting member to the Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC) for the remaining term year February 2021 to January 2022 (Mayor Hallisey)

 

Background:

Approval of this item will appoint Council Member John Bowen as alternate voting member for the remaining term year.  The current alternate member is Council Member Chad Tressler.    

 

The Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC) reviews and evaluates H-GAC's regional transportation plans and provides its recommendations to the Transportation Policy Council (TPC). The TAC is an appointed body, which is comprised of representatives of member governments and special citizen interest groups with expertise in transportation planning. TAC members are appointed by the TPC to assist with the coordination of the Transportation Improvement Program, Metropolitan Transportation Plan and other transportation planning activities.

 

The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is a fiscally constrained financial plan of transportation projects approved to receive federal funding over the next four-years. Projects selected for the TIP are priorities for the region in all surface transportation areas including transit, roadway and highways, bicycle and pedestrian, preventative maintenance, rehabilitation and transportation operations.
