John McGovern · NOACA; are you listening?
March 11th, 2010
MORPC (the MPO for Greater Columbus) has taken a giant leap forward in democratizing planning for transportation in the Greater Columbus region. In a region plagued by corruption and one party rule, we, as citizens of this region, should expect NOACA (Greater Cleveland’s MPO) to do the same.

MORPC SEEKS VOLUNTEERS TO SERVE ON THE CAC
The Mid‐Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) is seeking volunteers to serve on its Citizen
Advisory Committee (CAC). The individual must serve a constituency and reside in MORPC’s
transportation planning area: Delaware and Franklin counties, Bloom and Violet townships in Fairfield
County, and Etna Township and Pataskala in Licking County. MORPC seeks individuals who are not
elected officials or representatives of local governments (these officials have other avenues to provide
comments to MORPC).
The CAC meets the first Monday of every month to review regional transportation policies, plans and
projects and advise MORPC staff and board whether or not to adopt or modify these programs. As a
member of the CAC, you will not only have the opportunity to influence how transportation funds are
spent in the region, but also learn how decisions are made that determine which transportation projects
are funded. Members of the CAC are kept abreast of changes in transportation legislation as well as
changes and growth in the region.
If you would like to serve on the CAC, please forward your name and the association you represent along
with your bio to Bernice Cage at bcage@morpc.org. Information regarding the CAC can be found on
MORPC’s web site at http://www.morpc.org/transportation/public/citizens_advisory.asp. We look forward
to an exciting year in transportation planning.
