Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments Regional Transportation Planning Public Involvement Procedures

Federal Transportation legislation requires that the transportation planning process carried out by the MPO provide for public involvement in the development of its long-range transportation plan and transportation improvement program.  MPO planning regulations developed by the U.S. Department of Transportation (Title 23 CFR 450.316) calls for a "pro-active public involvement process that provides complete information, timely public notice full public access to key decisions, and supports early and continuing involvement of the public in developing plans."  PPACG has chosen to implement innovative approaches and elements to foster greater meaningful participation by stakeholders in the regional transportation planning process.

It is the goal of the Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments (PPACG) to provide a cooperative transportation planning process, one which empowers citizens to voice their ideas and opinions to help guide the decision makers in shaping the Pikes Peak Region's future.  These public involvement procedures describe the framework for accomplishing the cooperative process among the participants in PPACG’s transportation planning process:  technical and citizen’s advisory committees.
