The California Air Resources Board (CARB) annually hosts public workgroups in line with the development of the Funding Plan. The Proposed Fiscal Year 2025-26 Funding Plan will be published and presented before the CARB Board in November 2025. Through the Funding Plan, CARB staff provides recommendations for funding and policy changes for its incentive projects and programs. These recommendations include:
- CARB's priorities for the current funding cycle
- Fund allocations for each project category
- Improvements to projects based on public input and CARB staff's evaluation of projects in previous years
- Strategies to measure changes in behavior and the socioeconomic benefits resulting from projects
- Plans for potential adjustments during the year, if needed. These are known as contingency provisions
The workgroups serve as a forum to provide more information and updates on CARB’s Clean Mobility Investments, also referred to as the Sustainable Community-Based Transportation Equity Projects, including Clean Mobility Options, Sustainable Transportation Equity Project, Clean Mobility in Schools, and Planning and Capacity Building, while giving community members an opportunity to share their thoughts, concerns, and suggestions.
During this workgroup meeting, CARB staff will provide overviews of the Clean Mobility Investments, discuss their successes, lessons learned, and share the impacts these projects have on communities throughout California. Staff will also provide an overview on the Long-Term Strategy and begin initial conversations on the Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget allocations, funding splits, and policy discussions to solicit input from the public.
The workgroup meeting will be held via Zoom on the following date and time:
Date: Friday, June 20, 2025
Time: 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. (PT)
Location: Virtual Zoom Meeting
Please register for the workgroup. After you register, you will receive a confirmation email with information about how to join the Zoom meeting by computer or telephone.
This meeting will be recorded. Approximately two weeks after the meeting date, a link to the recording and a list of workgroup attendees will be made available and posted on CARB's Calendar of Events webpage.
Background
The Annual Funding Plan for Clean Transportation Incentives is a detailed outline of how money will be spent on programs related to low carbon transportation and air quality. This plan is created each fiscal year to guide the allocation of funds appropriated to CARB through the State budget and includes information on CARB's goals and strategies for investing in clean technology. The Funding Plan process occurs between May and November. As such, CARB staff may like to hold workgroups outside of the Funding Plan process to provide specific updates to interested members of the public and to gather public feedback that can be incorporated into elements of the Funding Plan.
Purpose of the Workgroup
CARB staff hosts workgroups related to the Funding Plan and project implementation updates for various CARB initiatives. Furthermore, CARB staff offer this platform to listen to community voices on their clean transportation needs.
The workgroup agenda will be available soon on CARB's Calendar of Events webpage. Staff’s presentation will be posted to the same webpage prior to the workshop.
All interested community members are invited to attend.
